Chapter 2:-

Positive. The test had come out positive. Even though Hinata had expected this, it still did not lessen the blow. The fact that a living being was currently inside of her, fascinated and horrified her so much that it was unbelievable. She was horrified that she would not be a good mother to her child, horrified that she would neglect it but most of all, she was horrified that Naruto would not want it. That he would think that the baby would hamper his career. There was another much worse thought that was prickling at the edge of her mind but she dared not think of that...

The unlocking of the doorway brought Hinata back to reality. Even from the secluded place of the bathroom where she was sitting in, she knew that it was Naruto. She was starting to hyperventilate. What was she going to tell him? What if he found her disgusting? Oh my God, he is going to start hating me.

"Hinata-chan, I'm home! Yo, Hinata-chan, where are you?" Just by hearing his voice, Hinata went into another stage of panic. Okay, I can do this. I'm not the timid Hyuuga heiress anymore. I'm a strong, independent woman who fought in the war. Trying to console herself, she went out of the bathroom, completely forgetting about the pregnancy test that she was leaving lying on the floor.

"N-naruto-kun. I'm here. I was just in the bathroom for quite some time and-and I didn't hear you come so.."

"Hi-na-ta-chaaaaan! There you are! I've been searching all over for you. You know, today so many things happened and I just have to tell you about it. So you see..." As Naruto kept babbling on about what he did or what the others did, Hinata tried really hard to keep in her tears. God, how could she tell him. He seems to be in such a good mood now too. No, I absolutely cannot tell him today. Not when he's like this. I'll tell him...tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow will be perfect.

"Yes, yes Naruto-kun. I'm sure your day was very interesting. How about you tell it to me when we're having dinner. I'll go prepare it right now. I-I've prepared hot water for you so you can go take a shower."

"Go, Hinata-chan. You always know what I want. See you in about five minutes? Love ya." Giving the brightest smile anyone could ever think of, Naruto happily wobbled away in the direction of the bathroom. Seeing that smile, Hinata's own heart calmed down a little as it remembered that this was the smile it once fell in love with.

While in the midst of preparing dinner, Hinata heard Naruto coming to the kitchen. Well, that's weird. He usually takes a lot more time to shower. I guess I have to hurry up my own work now. Hinata started to hasten until she heard Naruto talking to her.

"Hinata-chan...you're pregnant?" Hinata turned around so fast that she almost got whiplash. She could see Naruto holding the pregnancy test, the one that she had used, in one of his hands.

"Wh-where you did you get that?" "It-it was lying on the bathroom floor." A period of silence followed the statement. Hinata wanted to disappear. She was starting to think that she had ruined everything until Naruto broke into a smile which was unmatched by anyone's in the whole of the shinobi world.

"I'm going to be a father?! I'm...I'm seriously going to be a father?!" Hinata was shocked that he was reacting this way.

"I-I guess so. I'm not sure yet as I haven't-" She was cut off in the middle of her sentence as Naruto came rushing to her to give her one of the biggest hugs she had ever received.

"This is the happiest moment of my life. I'm going to have a family and it's all thanks to you. I don't know what I would have done without you Hinata-chan. We have to tell everyone. How about we throw a party? I still can't believe that I'm going to be a father..."

They stayed like that for quite some time, Naruto holding Hinata as tenderly as he could, in the middle of the kitchen until he decided to break the silence.

"I love you, Hinata-chan." Looking into those cerulean blue eyes, Hinata knew that there was only one reply to that statement and she said it without any hesitation.

"I love you too, Naruto-kun."

After that, Naruto had gone overboard with arranging a party for everyone. He wanted to tell everyone that Hinata was going to have a baby in an extravagant party instead of just plainly telling people like most people do. Of course, he was the savior of the world so I guess he can do anything he wants to.

Hinata still couldn't believe that Naruto had not reacted as she thought he would have reacted. That does not mean that she wasn't happy though. In fact, she was the most happiest she had been in a lot of time. After all, Naruto was spending time with her more and more so how could she not be happy? The events of that sinful night was almost forgotten. Almost being the key-word. Though Hinata still felt guilty, a selfish side of her thought that if Naruto never finds out about it then no harm would be done to anyone. So overall, life was going pretty well for the couple.

It was finally the day. The day when they were going to tell everyone. To say that Hinata was nervous, was an understatement. Naruto had invited everyone including her father and sister. Not to mention Neji! And his team! Plus Team 8 was going to be there too and so was Team 7... God, he's going to be here too. The gathering was supposed to be held in their backyard instead of their much-too-small house.

As Hinata finished changing, she looked at the mirror. She had a slight bulge in her stomach which she thought was weird for somebody who was probably already two months pregnant. I mean, she obviously had to be two months pregnant right? Seeing that Naruto was away for a mission for the entire of the last month. She was still feeling nervous about something though. She really didn't know what it was about but she was actually feeling as though something was not right. That something was terribly wrong and was gonna affect her in just a few days. Maybe it was just the doctor's appointment she had for tomorrow. Yep, that's exactly what I'm worried about.

Hinata heard a knock on the door. The first guest just arrived. It was obviously her old teammates: Inazuka Kiba, Aburame Shino and Yuhi Kurenai with a child of two years in her arms. From there, gradually more people came and the small house was almost full. The one thing Hinata noticed though was that he wasn't here even though Team 7 had already arrived. She had thought that Naruto would have dragged the Uchiha in but as the said Uzumaki was socializing, seemingly without a care in the world, that he had also not noticed that the former Avenger wasn't there. Why did I notice it then? Hinata knew that it was almost time. Naruto was just getting ready to announce the happy news to everyone.

"Yo, minna! Today, I've got something amazing to tell you! My wife Hin-" When suddenly, as of by some stalkerish magic, Uchiha Sasuke arrived, stealing the breath of every woman in a 50 mile radius, including Hinata herself.

A/N: Thank youuuu for all the reviews! You people are the best. I'm not really happy with this chapter though. It seems like a bit rushed and pointless but this was necessary for the upcoming story so pleeeease be patient! I know you will because you-are-ahmazing! Oh and a note! Hinata still thinks that it's Naruto's baby and I haven't gotten over Neji's death yet so he's alive.
