5 Months into Pregnancy.... Still

^..^

Sasuke sat in one chair in the garden, staring intently at Sakura who sat in a chair in the sun across from him, petting Jinxy. She looked up from the purring cat. Here we go.

"We start with the girl's name." She stated, thinking momentarily. "Hiromi (Generous Beauty)."

"No. Chika (Scattered Flowers)." He leaned back.

"Ugh, defiantly not. I don't like the sound of it. Natsuko (Summer Beauty)."

"She won't be born in the summer, their due this spring." Sasuke countered. "Yasuko (Peaceful Child)."

"Hm… well I like Yasuko, but who knows what her attitude will be like…" Sakura patted Jinxy's head. The silly cat had a name in a different language, Tsunade had said 'jinx' one day, and told Sakura it meant a curse, or unlucky. The main reason Sakura chose the name for the cat was because it was just the opposite, but she'd not do that to her own child. "Shiori (Poem), I like that one."

"It's nice, but I like Kayako (Roughly means: Night Flower)."

"That one's pretty, I like it! But I guess it's between Kayako and Yasuko. We'll find out when the time comes. Now for the boy."

"Hideaki (Shining Excellence)?"

"No, too long. I like Ryuu (Dragon Spirit)."

"I like that one too. That'll be his name." She nodded.

"Well I suppose it all depends on what we think we should name them when their born." Jinxy's purring was now the only sound, and Sasuke seemed increasingly nervous. She placed her hand over his own. "What's wrong Sasuke-kun?"

"Do you think they'll like me? What if I turn out like my father?" He turned his head down slightly, he was seriously worried.

"Oh Sasuke, I'm sure they'll love you. Don't worry." Sakura smiled, and kissed him. "I'm going to go call Ino again; she wants to know what we decided for names." He nodded and watched as his fiancé walked off. No sooner had she that he stood up and walked to the door.

"I'm going to work." He called, and she said ok. Sasuke slid the shoji door open, and walked outside. It was January now, time had flown by. The leaves had fallen late this year, but they were nowhere to be seen now of course. Every tree was bare, and no flowers were bloomed.

He wasn't really going to work, where would he go? He had no team, and he never would. Instead he was working his way to ANBU, and judging by how things were going now, it wasn't too far as far as possibilities go. Secretly he was incredibly thankful to Tsunade for giving him another chance. He had to think of a way to get Sakura out of the ANBU though; it was far too dangerous of a job for her. Sure he knew without a doubt she was strong, very strong, but he would not be able to go through life thinking she could ever possibly be in such danger, like with the mission with Kabuto. Never again would he let her do anything so dangerous.

He kicked a stone and it bounced off Ichiraku's Ramen, and he stepped inside. Naruto sat there of course, eating his ramen faster than his insides should allow. The demon boy looked up at him.

"Oi Sasuke! I heard the big news! Twins, huh? You really know how to…"

"Naruto, please." Sasuke said, sitting next to his friend. The owner's daughter Ayame walked up to him. "Beef Ramen." He said, and she nodded.

"So what brings you here?" He asked, slurping up another noodle that hit him in the nose before he finally got all of it.

"Just needed to take a walk."

"Oh. Are you happy about having twins? You seem pretty down." Sasuke looked at him incredulously.

"I just don't want to turn out like my father." Naruto pat Sasuke's back, making him fall forward a little, luckily before Ayame put the steaming ramen in her face.

"Ah don't worry Sasuke; your kids will love you!" Sasuke smirked. "I mean, look how much Sakura loves you, and look at how many friends you have! So have you decided what to name them?"

"Yeah we're thinking Ryuu for the boy and Kayako for the girl."

"That's pretty. Hey, by the way… Hinata's pregnant." Sasuke looked at him, his eyebrow arched.

"Yeah we were pretty shocked ourselves. I mean, it was the first time we…" Sasuke put his hand up, he didn't want details. "Well anyway, yeah… Well now maybe our kids can grow up and be friends! Or maybe one of them will marry my kid! Sasuke how cool would that be, if we were brother in laws!?" Naruto was not practically standing on his seat, and Sasuke pulled him down by his color.

"Are you really that okay with it?"

"Well yes, I got her father's blessing, and we're going to get married of course. Besides, I love Hinata, why would I be sad?"

"I'm not saying sad. Aren't you scared?"

"Duh, it's just I'm not upset or anything. I might as well be happy. Hey Ayame, more ramen!" He called to the girl who nodded and handed him another bowl already prepared. "So when are the twins due?"

"Spring, early May probably." Naruto nodded. Sasuke rose from his seat. "You know, you're right Naruto. I'm going to head home."

"H-hey! Can I have your ramen?" Naruto eyed the bowl of hot noodles that Sasuke hadn't even touched, but paid for. His friend grunted and Naruto dug in without a second thought.

Sasuke put his hands in his pockets and walked along the road, thinking about what his life would soon be like….

"Daddy, guess what I learned!"

"Papa, I learned a new Jutsu today!"

There would be good times…

First steps, first words, first jutsus, academy days, Chuunin, grandchildren…

And the bad times…

Dangerous missions.

"Dad, I can do this on my own."

"Daddy I met this boy today, and he was…"

But he knew he'd always love his children, and deep down he knew they'd love him back. Not many people think the Uchiha would be a good father, but he'd prove them wrong. He sighed and looked up at the sky. In no time at all he'd be giving piggy-back rides, and doing other things he never thought he would do. Things that would embarrass him, things that would make him feel so stupid and strange… and he'd enjoy every minute of it.
