I'm so so sorry for the late update and I know I'm unforgivable. I lack focus and inspiation lately and I haven't been able to sit down and write more than 100 words at a time...

Thanks for all your good reviews! I probably have read all of them about fifty times by now and they make me cry! (partly because some of them are really mean...) Just kidding! Thanks anyway!

Enjoy!

WHEN THE TIMING IS ALL WRONG

It was unbelievable! Once more Sakura had waken up hot and wet from dreaming about Sasuke all night and she could even smell him in her room, even though he had never been in the guest room since she started living there. What was wrong with her? Could pregnancy hormones make her so horny?

And now she had to take a shower, dress up and go have breakfast with Sasuke and the children acting completely cool and collected. She had been doing the same thing every day for the past weeks and it only became more and more difficult. She had caught herself staring at Sasuke's butt when he wasn't looking or sniffing his clothes like some kind of nymphomaniac. She was disgusted with herself and yet she was seriously considering attacking Sasuke in his shower and beg him to fuck her.

A while later Sakura entered the dining room and found everyone already there. Sasuke was talking with Anna about some event in her school, the twins were arguing about classes and Minori was as gloomy as usual. There was something upseting that girl, but she didn't seem eager to talk about it. Her mother believed that she was having problems with her secret boyfriend and smirked as she imagined Sasuke's reaction to that.

"What are you going to do today, mommie?" Little Kaito asked her hoping that she would play with him after school. The truth was that she didn't have anything to do. She only ate, slept and fantasized about Sasuke all day. She had finally gained some weight and she didn't looked so pale anymore.

"Sakura, we have a doctor appointment. For the sonogram." Sasuke was coming with her?

"Really? Is she going to tell you the sex?" Tadashi finally stopped teasing his brother and Minori raised her eyes from her plate.

"It's possible, but we're not sure yet." Sakura was almost five months pregnant and it was about time for Tsunade to tell her the sex of the baby. Usually she would start picking out the colors for the nursery and decorating, but right now she didn't know if that room was going to be in that house. Her deal with Sasuke was that she would live there until she gave birth and she had no idea what would happen next.

Sasuke was thinking the same thing. He and Sakura were divorced and he thought that she would want to live alone after the baby was born. But he wasn't ready to let go. Nor could he keep the baby and send out the mother; that would kill her. He preferred not to think about it. The only thing that mattered at the moment was Sakura's health.

"I hope it's a girl! Then we will be the same number of boys and girls.!" Anna crossed her fingers, but her little brother started yelling that he wanted a little brother and they didn't stop arguing until the school bus arrived.

Tsunade let her alone in the room to take off her clothes. She could still hear Sasuke talking with her outside the room, asking her questions about the tests and the rest of the pregnancy.

"Well, you know these things from the previous times. She can't lift weights or wear herself out, but walking is very good for the baby. Also she needs to eat more meat and vegetables, but less sugar. Other than that, you know very well that sex is allowed until the last month."

Sakura didn't hear Sasuke's 'hn' but she was sure that it was his answer. "Ok, come in!" Tsunade made her lie down and open her legs and Sasuke naturally found his usual place next to her head and stared at the monitor. She wanted to hold his hand like she did the other times they were in the same position, but she couldn't bring herself to do so.

"Oh, here it is!" Naturally Sasuke's hand found hers and tenderly took it in his. She turned her head to look at him wishing for a kiss, but he was staring at the monitor, where he finally could see the shape of the tiny baby inside her. He wanted to go there and touch the legs and the little fingers and the adorable dark head. Five times he had done it already and he was still fascinated from the miracle of life.

"So, do you want me to tell you the sex?" Tsunade finally asked them and Sasuke looked at her and saw the tears glistening in her eyes.

"Tell us."

"Congratulations, it's a girl!" Sakura let out a small scream. Sasuke had already seen it in the monitor and just waited for Tsunade to confirm it, so he brought her hand to her lips and gently kissed it, causing more tears. That was the happier Sakura had been in years.

They didn't talk much on the way home and when they did it was all about the baby. Only after they reached home, Sasuke decided that he had to do something at last.

"Sakura, I've been thinking... we should turn the big room next to Anna's into the nursery..." Sakura slowly took off her coat and gave it to him. A shy smile appeared in her face as she followed him inside.

"Then... I'll have to stay here after I give birth?"

It was now or never. He knew that it was time for him to speak up. Sasuke took both her hands in his and held them tenderly. "You can stay here for as long as you wish."

That wasn't enough for her. She needed proof. She came closer and stretched her body to reach for his lips. The moment he realised that she wanted to kiss, he immediately lowered his head and for just a second their lips connected before a well-known female voice came from the living room.

"There you are! I've been looking for you all day! There are a million things that I need to talk to you about."

Sakura ended the kiss and pulled back so fast that Sasuke almost fell on the floor with his head. Behind him stood Karin holding some papers from the company and he could clearly see in Sakura's face that she knew exactly what had happened between him and his secretary.

Obito couldn't take it anymore. That woman was slowly killing him. She had been avoiding him for days and ignoring his calls. The only thing in his mind was when was she going to have sex with Akira and it was driving him crazy. He had started having images with the two of them in his head and it was getting worse every time. He had to know for sure.

He didn't need an invitation to go to her house; he was her friend since birth. He opened the front gate and walked in the garden. He passed a few cars and Minori's father, who was talking with a red-head woman and continued to the door. He rand the bell twice before a maid opened the door and entered. He passed her mother sitting on an armchair without saying hello and climbed the stairs. And then he entered her room.

She was lying in her bed listening to music from her earphones. No skirts or cute tops, for once she looked like his friend again in her sweatpants. But she wasn't the same person.

"What are you doing here, Obito?" He didn't have any answer.

"Did you do it with him?" It took Minori a while to remember that she had told him that she wanted to have sex with Akira. She sat on her bed and tried to smile.

"Yes." More lies. But he almost fainted. Then he started walking up and down in the room completely ignoring her. She should be happy, but she was tired of that game.

"Why?"

"What do you mean? You told me to do it, remember?" That was true. He was that much of an idiot that he had told the girl he liked -no, the girl he loved!- to have sex with her boyfriend. There was no point in denying the truth anymore. He didn't want to protect her; he wanted to be the one who would do all kind of dirty things to her. But he was late.

"And how was it?" And then Minori freaked. She had no idea how sex was supposed to feel like. What was she going to say? Admit that she had no boyfriend? He would laugh at her. Tell him that she was lying from the beginning? Obito would ask why and she had no answer.

"It was amazing! He was so..."

"Ok, I don't need details!" Thank God he had stopped her. He sat on the bed next to her and hid his face in his hands. Minori suddenly realised that she had done it. He wasn't seeing her as a buddy any more; he knew that she was a woman. But why didn't that made her happy? Was she hoping for something else? Did she want something more from him?

He finally raised his head and smiled sadly at her. He was still her friend and at least she was happy. "I hope you used protection this time!"

That caught her off guard. Her mind was blanc and the confusion showed in her face making Obito jump up and start yelling. "Again? How big of an idiot are you? And that bastard couldn't think of a condom? What was he thinking? I could..."

"Ok, stop, I'm lying!" He froze. She couldn't look straight at him, but stared at the floor instead.

"What?"

"I lied. I don't have a boyfriend. He is Shou, Kana's boyfriend and I asked her as a favor. I don't even know him." He couldn't believe his ears. He sat next to her on her bed still speechless. "You were making fun of me, because boys don't like me and I wanted to prove you wrong, but you were right. Nobody likes me."

The next thing Obito did was wrong, but he couldn't help it. He burst out laughing so hard that even Sakura heard him downstairs. It was like a proof to Minori that she was right, but to him it was just relief. Only when he raised his head and saw tears glistening in Minori's eyes, he realised what he was doing.

"No, no, no! You misunderstood me!" Minori stood up and he immediately followed her knowing that he couldn't blow his last chance.

"Get out!" She opened the door to leave but he pulled her back in the bedroom and closed it. She couldn't face him anymore. She had hurt her famous Uchiha pride by admitting her stupid plan and he had laughed in her face. She would normally kick his ass, but there was a part of her that just wanted to cry and she wouldn't do it in front of him.

"Just listen to me!"

"No!"

They were almost running in her room. Finally he got her to stop and look at him. "You should never listen to me. I'm an idiot and you know it. I was only teasing you!"

"Why?"

"Because... because you changed." His face was red and he could see in her eyes that she had no idea what he wanted to tell her. "Suddenly you fell in love with that model and you had sex with him, when I... I believed you were still a child. And then you told me that you wanted to do it again and... you got all those short skirts and make-up... what I mean is... I thought I was losing you!"

If he thought he was making it better he was wrong. "So you wanted to protect me? From boys? You are not my father! And you have sex all the time!"

"I take everything back! You're the idiot!" How could she still not understand?

"What the...?"

"Your father? Protect you? Who do you think I am exactly?"

"Hey! I should be the angry one! What happened?"

Suddenly Obito started feeling very stupid. Minori thought of him as a friend and she was too innocent to see what he was trying to do. And he couldn't tell her what he wanted to do to her if he didn't want to frighten her. So what was left for him to do?

"...I was jealous."

Minori froze. She could finally understand. And she freaked out.

Sasuke got rid of Karin as quickly as possible. He sighed all her papers, gave her some more work to do and she got in her car satisfied, knowing that Sakura had completely misunderstood her visit to the house. Sasuke was not that happy. He was closer than ever to Sakura and he lost her the last moment. If Karin wasn't there, her would have taken Sakura by now.

His ex-wife sat in an armchair and looked paler than ever. How the hell had she found out about him and Karin? He should kill that Sai and his stupid wife. "My secretary..."

"I don't think that it's a good idea."

"Hn?"

"I should find my own place after the baby is born. But you can come visit all the time. You'll still get to see her a lot." Of course. Sasuke had lost her again. And the baby, too.

"Hn." What was there for him to say? They awkwardly stared at each other until Obito suddenly appeared and stormed out of the house without talking to them again. Sasuke was just about to ask what was wrong with that boy when his daughter appeared on the staircase and yelled "Wait! I'm in love with you!"

Obito was gone but her father and her mother heard her confession instead.

That's it! I know it's lame, but it's the best I've got right now. You must all hate me deeply right now but the next chapter is going to change your mind!
