I DO NOT OWN NARUTO
The Morning After
Chapter 16
By corpsedollie
Two pairs of eyes observed the pregnancy test as if though it was made out of gold. They were waiting for any sign of the pregnancy lines as the box indicated that there would be.
"How long has it been?" Ino asked Sakura never removing her eyes from the stick that laid on the bathroom counter.
Sakura pulled her sleeve up to check her wrist watch "Almost 10 minutes" and then picked the box the pregnancy test came in "It says that the results should be available within 5-6 minutes after urinating on it"
There was no lines on the stick. Not one line to indicate that she was not pregnant and certainly not two lines that would indicate that there was indeed something growing inside of her. The feeling of inner turmoil grew within Sakura since she felt rather conflicted on the fact. Recalling the fact that Sasuke was not human and the child that was maybe growing within Sakura could be part of what he was. A Lycan.
"Well. If you are... you know..." Ino indicated with her hands at her stomach "pregnant. It would not be all that bad since Sasuke is pretty well of. You guys would actually make the most stunning babies. Pink hair with dark eyes or other way around..." Ino blabbered on about all sorts of combinations that could come out.
"Well. I have to see if I am pregnant first. But I am going to ask my one colleague to help me with this since she is an expert in this field" Sakura said patting her stomach. She then moved from outside her bathroom to her office again.
Sakura took of her white doctor coat and placed it on the coat hanger. She then grabbed her handbag and made her way out of her office
"Oooh. This is going to be exciting. I cannot wait to see what the results are. I hope there is a baby. I absolutely adore them" Ino said eyes sparkling like rubies as she followed Sakura out the office and down the hallway to another office not so far from Sakura's.
Sakura took a deep breath before opening the door to enter the room. Now entering the room made her more aware to the fact that she might be pregnant. Her life would change forever from here on out.
...^V^...
Sasuke observed the red digits of the elevator ticking of by, as he waited in to arrive to the floor in the Uchiha Corp building. The waiting was not at all helping for how he was feeling, which was anticipation. When a ding sounded the elevator full and the doors automatically opened, Sasuke knew deep down that he was truly going to speak to the elders about the recent change of events in his own life.
Sasuke stood in front of the sandblasted glass door. His palms was sweaty and his knees were weak. He was more then nervous to enter the next room and he was not at all ready to face the elders. All the stories he has heard before about these people were all just bad stories.
He lifted his hand which felt like it weight a thousand ton. But with much effort, he pulled it to the silver door handle and pulled the handle down. The door clicked open and he stepped forward into the next room.
Everything genuinely felt like it was moving in slow motion.
"Next is Uchiha Sasuke. Son of Uchiha Fugako and second heir of the Uchiha Corporation" a woman announced Sasuke's arrival as if it was on que.
Sasuke's dark eyes scanned the room to be more then surprised that the room was not at all to what he was expecting. Usually when he heard the word Elders, he was expecting the room to be old fashioned like the people. But it was not like that at all. The room seemed to be some kind of modern day twist of a Business Meeting room, with a rectangular table made out of marble sitting in the middle of the room and a lot of old and some what young men sitting around the table. All in business suites and all having their laptop or files in front of them. The other side of the room's wall was made entirely out of glass. Something like windows. It kinda reminded Sasuke of his own office. Oh how he missed his own office. To be just safe from all of this.
"Son. Will you have a seat, please"
Sasuke's eyes traveled back to the main person on the other end of the table. He was more then surprised when he saw his fathers tired and wary eyes look back at him. Fugaku's appearance slightly resembled a combination of Sasuke and Itachi.
Without thinking twice, Sasuke made his way to sit on the other end of the table, facing his father.
"Why am I here? Why did the Elders call for me" Sasuke asked resting his hands onto his lap, trying his best not to remove his eye contact from his father's own dark eyes. He could feel the rest of the room's eyes all focused on him as well. There must've been at least 20 pairs of eyes looking back at him. This only made the pressure much heavier for him.
But he was not going to show any signs of weakness. He will not give up or give in to the elders.
"Sasuke. We have been well informed about your recent relationship with a certain doctor name Haruno Sakura. Is this true? We would like to hear this from your point of view" Fugako spoke, sounding more like a business man then a father.
"Well. It is like you say. I have been having a relationship with this woman and want to spend the rest of my life with her. She's the one" Sasuke said in a monotone voice.
"And we also have been informed that she witnessed you transforming on the one night" Fugako spoke again. His eyes as cold as ice. The truth needed to be heard.
Sasuke contemplated for a while. Wondering if he should add to the truth of what was laid before him. Was he going to admit it to his own father or just deny it to make it easier for now but more difficult for later when he still has to tell the truth.
The thing was either way, the truth would be heard.
"Yes. It was unfortunate that she had to find out my secret. I wish there was someway to have prevented it but she happened to see it. And there is no way to erase her memory of what she had saw" Sasuke stated the case.
"Very well then..." Fugako spoke "We as the elders cannot risk a human knowing the were abouts of the Lycans"
"Well. What do you suppose we do?" Sasuke asked not liking the tone his father was taking.
"The Lycan Elders have kept the where abouts of Lycans a secret to almost a myth for more then a 1000 years. Any possible threats of any human knowing the where abouts of the Lycans was immidiatly eliminated" Fugako said again with no emotion
"No! You will not..."
"Thus the reason why You, my son, have to eliminate her. For the safety of this Uchiha name" Fugako finished his sentence.
"No" Sasuke slammed his balled fists into the table causing it to crack a little "I refuse. I love this woman. I will make sure she does not tell anyone"
A man on the left hand side of Fugako whispered something in his ear which was inaudible to the rest of the people. Fugako's eyes focused on Sasuke again, growing even colder as the seconds ticked on by.
"One month" Fugako spoke "We will give you one month were you have to get rid of this woman. If not , you will automatically force us to step in and handle the situation"
Sasuke was speechless. He could not believe his own father to betray him like this. He was sick of the family rules and how it always have to be like it was. He was sick of protecting his family. He was not going to do it.
Without saying a word, Sasuke stood up and left the room in silence.
...^v^...
"Sakura. What a nice surprise" said the female doctor as she turned her office chair to face Sakura and Ino standing at the frame of the door.
"Shizune. I have something to ask of you. Could you maybe help me" Sakura asked as she sat on the patient chair shortly followed by Ino.
"I need you to test me, because I think I might be pregnant"
"Well. We will have to do some tests and see" Shizune said as she got up and placing her stethoscope around her neck "Please come lie down on the bed so that we could start"
Shizune did a couple of tests on Sakura and in the few times when she looked at the parts of Sakura's stomach from all different angles, she could not help but frown. She frowned at her stomach since she has never seen something like this before. Afterwards Sakura sat on the chair again and Shizune sat across from her.
"So. What is the results? I need to know. Am I pregnant?" Sakura asked sitting on the edge of her seat.
"First of all. I want to know, is when have you had intercourse?" Shizune asked as she spoke about a month ago to Sakura about the same thing and Sakura told Shizune she was not pregnant and was still a virgin.
"Well. The intercourse happened about 3 days ago" Sakura said, feeling herself blushing, discussing private matters outside of the bedroom was no her for-te.
"Well. You are pregnant. And the signs that you are showing of what the sonar tells me and so on. It almost seems like the fetus is about less then 4 weeks old" Shizune deadpanned.
"That's impossible" Sakura said. Even to her own ears, this seemed ridiculous. A fetus does not have the ability to grow two to four times faster then normal.
And then as if it was suddenly just laid upon her like a ton of bricks, Sakura realized. It could be the affect of what Sasuke was taking effect to the fetus. It could be the Lycan DNA making the fetus grow at a fast speed.
She was pregnant. Truly and really pregnant. Sasuke's child was growing within her stomach
