Chapter 14: I turn all of the lonely years to only days
Sakura opened her eyes seeing Sasuke was still with her. She knew moving would wake him and the soreness in her body would return so she stayed where she was. He was silent, still but still looked like he wasn't really sleeping. Restless looking, not peaceful like she had been hoping.
She closed her eyes for a minute taking a deep breath only to feel Sasuke tighten his arm around her again tighter then before. He was awake now. She smiled running her fingers up his back to his hair soothing the strands from sleep and opened her eyes and looked down at Sasuke who still was trying to sleep.
This was a rare occasion that they were able to sleep in together, not rushed by Sakura's life or the danger in Sasuke's. The clock chimed lowly signaling it was a new hour making her curious to what time it was. She leaned upwards slightly not really disturbing Sasuke and saw it was 7. So much for sleeping in.
She rested back to the bed kissing Sasuke's forehead resting her own against his smooth un-flawed skin.
"What wrong?" His gruff voice said she moved away looking down at him and shook her head as he lifted his head from her chest.
"Nothing go back to sleep." She said softly. For the first time she thought in his life he listened to her and rested back to his position. She looked over to the side knowing going back to sleep herself was impossible. She sighed willing to sit here for him to sleep a while longer.
She did start to drift in and out however which was pleasant enough. Stirring awake only when he would move slightly or readjust his tight grip around her, protective as always, good thing she didn't say who the man was, or the fact that he didn't go off the hinges when she had told him at all was amazing. It wasn't like she hadn't taken care of herself but last night he was rather distracted and didn't seem to even hear what she was really talking about anyway.
He took a deep breath himself showing he was awake again and sat up. She continued to lay where she was stretching her legs for good measure then sat up wrapping her arms around him pulling him closer to her as he sat there.
"Are you having second thoughts?" He asked she opened her eyes and stood up walking to his front and knelt down so she could see his face which was hung with his head.
"Why do you ask that?" She asked he shook his head.
"You just seem distant that's all." He said she smiled blunt.
"I am not distant from you, why do you think that?"
"I don't know."
"Well if I told you I would cradle you in my arm until I made you forget you just said that would that make you feel better?" She asked steadying herself on his legs. He looked up slightly to her face and sighed.
"Sasuke what is really going on, I am not acting differently from how I normally do except this weird void you leave when you gone. So what is really going on?"
"Nothing." He stood as did. Anger flared inside her making her grit her teeth but didn't move from facing the wall just incase her face gave it away she was mad.
"You're mad…"
"Yes I am!" She said whipping around about to continue to go off on him but stopped seeing the first real new emotion on his face. Utter sadness. She sighed and walked towards him but he didn't react so she shook her head and walk past him.
"I cannot comfort you when you don't want it…" She said walking to the living room. She heard him leave which made her concerned that perhaps it was serious this time. Maybe she was acting different.
She walked back into the bedroom and smiled seeing a rose awaiting her on the pillow. Where he got these things she didn't know but didn't care at that point. She walked to her window shutting it before the early lights came over the mountain and got ready for just a causal day she was off for a least a day or so because she wasn't sure she would make a full day at work. Not to mention she still needed to study for up coming events. Even though she was ready she wanted to master them, know them in her sleep essentially.
She put the books in a bag then tightened it carefully sealing the lock on it and walked out the door with a blanket and made her way through the streets and up the hillside where she would normally would have sat but she wanted to be hidden and away from everyone so she headed to hers and Sasuke dinner spot which was with in a few minutes run to the village.
Plopping to her seat she looked around her and smiled watching the tall grass wave all around her like it was fingers wiggling in the air. She leaned on her elbow pulling her bag to her side and pulled the first book out and read over the protective spell for herself. Sasuke had stressed enough that she would be harmed. With that said and done she began reading over her own self study books on how to get them apart. It wasn't a walk in the park it required her to join the body swap, and it was dangerous to pull one and not the other out.
Flipping though the pages over and over she prepared herself more and more her own skills mending with the new, her old ones upgrading as she also studied new medical ninjutsu's
She pressed the books tighter as she looked over each piece of information and ever detail with careful eyes. The wind blew and she had been so concentrated that she didn't notice that it was starting to get dark. She packed her tings up her back protesting from the long hours in the position it was in. She stood rolling up her blanket then turned to head back only to have her face captured softly and hard lips pressed against hers. Her eyes searched the face finding it was Sasuke.
This felt like Sasuke she wrapped her arms around his neck grazing the raised tattoo and smiled against his lips as her books fell to the ground effortlessly by his careful hands then the blanket as she continued to kiss him feverishly the need seemed to explode from her body into his because he too seemed to need her so much. The blanket didn't get fixed before Sasuke was taking Sakura to the grass below her and looked at her as she laid there.
Her green eyes were bright; her face slightly flushed her moon kissed skin darker from the light of the sun not like death like his from the lack of the sight.
"I guess I am forgiving huh?" He asked she nodded softly pushing his hair from his face with her slender fingers.
"What was wrong before?" She asked he moved slightly making her close her eyes. He stopped and she opened her left eye and smiled seeing his slight flaw in his face which was his raised brow.
"My body misses you more I think then we both can comprehend." He smiled moving again to his spot he had started to begin with and rested on one elbow instead of his arms so he was free to roam with the other.
"Nothing was wrong before. It was a long time since I saw you it is harder then you think to come back and remember that I have to be careful around you, to hold you like a flower and not a weapon." He said she smiled propping herself up on her elbows kissing him easier.
"I know." She said softly. "I think you are doing good at your newly required job." She said kissing him tenderly then moved away from him again lying back down.
"No matter what happens Sasuke I will always love till the day you make me say I do."
"I guess I would have to say the same thing then huh?" He asked she nodded closing her eyes just enjoying his company his presence, his touch.
(Uzamaki residence.)
"What?" Naruto said his face pale sweat beading on his skin.
"Naruto…" Hinita tried to explain again but the boy near looked faint.
"Naruto?" she asked stepping towards him.
"Father?" He mumbled and tipped backwards crashing to the crowd with a loud thud from hitting every piece of furniture he possibly could have on his way down. Hinita stood there and staring at him and sighed walking over to him trying to wake him up. Perhaps it would be easier for him to find out another way…
(Sakura and Sasuke)
After coaxing him from the grassy get away together the couple walked back to the village Sakura mostly doing the holding of the hands but Sasuke fallowed her.
"You know I don't understand why you disa-" she sighed seeing him once again vanish and looked over to the side where Hinita walked out her face a little red.
"Sorry Sakura I didn't mean to interrupt," She said her Bakugan (sp?) relaxed.
"No what is the matter?" She asked walking towards her.
"Can we talk in privet?" She asked meekly. Sakura looked over to the side and nodded.
"Yeah come on lets go get something to eat." She said looking back at her friend and wrapped her arm around the girls shoulder. Together they started down the hill while Sasuke stood beside the tree watching them his Sharigan watching them carefully the black ring rolled a notch and he turned and walked into the shadows.
(Sakura and Hinita)
"Pregnant that is wonderful!" Sakura said swallowing her food while Hinita wiggled in her seat.
"I thought so too, not sure how Naruto is taking it… he…well passed out shortly after I told him.
"Did he mumble something like father? Or wha? Before doing so?" Sakura asked Hinita nodded.
"Well then that seems to be a normal response, Shikamaru when he heard the news from Ino did the same thing except he didn't faint he actually stood up very calmly walked out the door and stood outside of it for a few minutes staring off to the distance then left." Hinita nodded.
"Naturally me very emotional friend came running for my advice and I simply told her the same thing I am going to tell you, I am not a mother, I don't know how to tell you that they will be okay with everything." Hinita nodded again looking down this time.
"But I can you this because I know what love is like…He will see you and rush into your open arms and say that he is thrilled to be a father." Hinita looked up and Sakura nodded.
"You think so?" She asked Sakura nodded and grabbed her bicep and flexed.
"If he doesn't I will make sure his head has a dent." She laughed and Sakura nodded taking another bite.
"Sakura if you don't mind me asking…do you want to be a mother?" She asked Sakura thought about it while taking another drink of her water and nodded.
"I guess if the occasion comes around to it. To be honest though I don't think bringing another Uchiha into this world with Oro still walking the lands is a wise decision." She said Hinita nodded and looked up as the waiter came by.
"Thanks Sakura for the talk." Sakura nodded paying for the meal and looked at her again.
"You will be a wonderful mother Hinita don't let anyone tell you different." She nodded and together they left and went their separate ways at the four way split.
(Next day)
"Sakura." A voice came from behind her, Sakura stood from her crouched position at the stream and looked seeing Naruto walking towards her his head was down a bit and his eyes were full of worry.
'Sakura?' Shikamaru called from the side of the hospitable a cigarette between his lips already prepared to break of in ash.
"What brings you out to herb valley?" She joked, gesturing towards the herbs and healing plants in the area.
"I need your advice." He said Sakura nodded and waved him to continue while she looked over the plants again running her fingers on the leafs.
"Hinita is pregnant, and I think she got the impression that I wasn't happy about it and well…I am going to be a dad! I mean it took me by surprise." Sakura's eyes softened as she stared at the plant and heard Naruto plop to a seat close to her and watch her.
"The best advice I could give you Naruto is this: Do you love her?"
"Yes." She nodded, "Do you want the baby?" She asked again.
"Yes." She stood with her basket and turned to face him.
"Then I suggest you go home and run into her arms hold her tightly and tell her you want to be a father more then anything." He nodded getting a goofy grin.
"You know…" She tilted her head as he looked around him then leaned towards her.
"I always kinda figured it would be you…" He stopped as she raised a brow.
"To be the one to give advice to everyone when we got older." He finished she gave a fake smiled and nodded "Yeah that's me, Ms. Advice my services are Monday through Thursday and the occasional Friday." She said. He pulled her into a hug then released her quickly running to the green house door and headed off to she hoped Hinita.
Sakura stood there for a minute staring at the door and set the basket on the ground and sat in the chair he had been sitting in. She leaned on her legs looking at the herbs then looked at her toes and wiggled them for a minute then sat up stood back to her feet and grabbed the basket.
Emotional moment gone.
She walked out the door and headed back to the hospitable and walked through the doors and headed back to the medical room.
"Your baby is doing wonderful you should have a great little boy-" Sakura looked at the doorway and continued walking.
"He said he was going to marry you? Sister let me tell you he is del-" Sakura walked past a few nurses and picked up her pace to the back silent room.
"Baby-" "Your husband said what!" "I am eight months should I have this problem?"
She was running by this point and rushed into the back room and leaned on the doors and looked up seeing other medical nin in there staring at her. She smiled soothing her lab coat and walked to a open work spot.
What did the village suddenly go into heat? Everyone having all these children was insane!
She grinded her herbs together and fumed off to the side, little did she know the others in with her were staring at her beating the materials together like they were resisting. When she looked up they looked away and resumed their work. She raised a brow and looked at her mess and sighed.
(?)
"I swear everyone in this village is having a freaking baby! Who else you!" Sakura stressed to Lee who raised a brow and shook his head.
"Sakura I am not sure if you remember that I am guy. Shouldn't you be talking this over with um some girl who you know, knows about all this…mommy business?" Sakura sighed looking over at Lee. She sighed and sat to the grass below her and soon was joined by Lee who looked over the village trying to think of some advice to give her but… it wasn't his area of expertise, perhaps guy-sensei will shed some light on this!
"Come with me!" Lee said she looked over at him then gave a hesitant nod and fallowed him as he ran down the hill and into the village. They really didn't go to far in fact they were into the village and up a long set of stairs to the academy where she spotted the reason for coming up here.
"Lee I know your trying to help but this wasn't the way!" She stressed as Lee pushed her towards Guy.
"Ah Lee my favorite pupil! What brings you to the champions of champions!" He posed for effect copied by Lee only making Sakura loose an IQ point.
"Sakura is having an issue with understanding why all the women of Leaf are becoming pregnant!" HE said it proudly that Sakura could have died at the moment or done a comical fall to the ground and snap back up and start yelling or pounding lee to the ground. But she didn't she smiled remembering the good ol' days when that was what she did.
"Sakura have you not heard of the birds and the bees? They are everywhere this year! Stinging and chirping the ways of love!" he cried over dramatically.
"Ha ha, yes well it wasn't that I didn't know what was going on I was just wondering why all at once!"
Guy was aout to start but stopped as he looked down at her. She wasn't too much shorter then Lee now who was almost as tall as himself. Everyone had grown into fine adults. Mature, and in Sakura's case wise beyond her years.
"I actually don't have-"
"Sakura!" A nurse called running up the stairs out of breath.
"We need your assistance, we found Uchiha!" Sakura raised a brow finding who? SASUKE! She turned to her but guy and Lee were already racing down the stairs.
"HE IS HERE!" They cried. Sakura sighed and ran after them what Sasuke was thinking coming into town! It was like a bear wild in the circus in town; everyone was buzzing around and closing in on the doors. She shook her head getting stuck behind several people.
She pushed herway through the crowd with more force than needed flinging people over the other and made it to the doors and walked inside.
"No one other then authorized personnel get inside!" She said the nin nodded and she fallowed the sound of cries and screams from the nurses. She began to panic hearing the sound of medical equipment alarms going off at an alarming rate. She pushed her way through and saw Tsunade who looked up. "Sakura get in here!"
Blood was everywhere…
Sasuke…
Voices all around… medical alarms of an unsteady heart…
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP…
Yeah I like the occasional you don't know what the hell is going on moments! YAY sorry for the delay you know why! So enjoy! No cool theme music this time.
