BTW: GIVE ME A BOY AND/OR GIRL'S NAME! It'd really help me...the names I've come up with suuuuccckkk. Just so you know I am not british I got a message and no not british I lived there so sometime use the way they word things because its sounds better but no I'm not british or a wanna be brit.
RECAP: Naruto and Sakura overhear the real reason Kankuro is being a jerkface and he goes to talk to Gaara who has been talking to Sasuke about names.
Kankuro and Gaara were in the hall. Gaara was still crying, he figured Kankuro had brought him out here to tell him he couldn't love a gay brother, he regretted ever telling them in the first place.
"Gaara...don't cry bud...come on..."
He walked over and stood next to him and put his arm around his shoulder, they had to lean against the wall or they'd be in the way.
"Gaara...what I said about you and Naruto...I didn't mean it...I;m just worried for you."
"W-why?"
"Well...it's no secret that you don't have friends from the sand aside from me and Temari...your friends are here. Unfortunately you don't live here...when you go back to the Sand you'll be a gay Jinchuuriki...I was thinking the combination...well it wouldn't do you any good...I don't know what I expected to accomplish by saying I wouldn't be OK with it but...I just don't want you to get hurt...people from the Sand are mean..."
"...really...you love me again..."
"I never stopped, you're my brother."
"I love you, Kankuro."
"I love you too...hey since you and Naruto are like dating right?"
"Yeah..."
"And as of now you're living together right?"
"Mhm..."
"Does that mean you two have...ya know..."
"Does it matter...?"
"Just wondering..."
"Oh...yea..."
"Why'd you say 'yea'?"
"Answering you...let's go back in..."
Gaara started walking back in, Kankuro was basically talking to himself.
"Oh...oooooohhhh...ew..."
They walked back in with Sasuke and made small talk until visiting hours were over. Sakura was the last out, she went to give Sasuke a kiss goodbye.
"Sakura?"
"Mhm?"
"Uh...I know this sounds bad but...could you tell Kakashi sensei while I'm still in here...?"
"Without you?"
"It's just before that day at Ichiraku's he threatened to kill me if you got hurt...I think he might actually kill me once he finds out you're pregnant...I think with a hospital staff on stand-by I'll live."
"Oh..."
"If you want me to go I will. You don't have to do anything you don't want to. I love you."
"No, Sasuke it's fine...I was just thinking...what'll he think of me now..."
Sasuke reached up and kissed her.
"Sakura, he loves you too. He won't think any less of you, and he shouldn't. You're a wonderful person Sakura, I love you. I think I'll go with you to tell him."
"No don't. I think with you there he might get aggravated...I want him to be calm, so when he thinks back on when he found out he won't get mad...bye Sasuke, I love you."
She kissed him goodbye and left. She walked out with everyone else. She stopped to talk to Naruto for a second.
"Naruto, do you mind stopping by Kakashi's tonight?"
"Why?"
"To tell him...me and Sasuke agreed he shouldn't be there...Kakashi sensei might actually kill him."
"Well, we can wait a day or two...we did find out just this morning...sheesh it's only 4..."
"So that's a no then?"
"No I'll go. I'll meet you out infront of his house at say 5. I gotta get Temari and Kankuro settled in for tonight. I'm pretty sure they're staying here."
"OK, see you then.."
They walked to their respective houses. Naruto got the guest room made up for Temari and Kankuro to sleep in. It was a queen size so they'd be squished a little bit but being siblings they were used to it by now. Naruto said his goodbye's and went to meet Sakura. It had never been brought up until they'd made up Temari and Kankuro's bed. Where did Gaara sleep. Gaara wanted to say he slept with Naruto but, that would imply he and Naruto were in a physical relationship. Even though it was assumed Gaara wasn't one to push things. He also however didn't want to make up a lie and try and fool them every morning they were there.
MEANWHILE
Naruto was right on time to meet Sakura. She was standing outside Kakashi's apartment complex. When Naruto hugged her he noticed she was shaking. He put his hands on her shoulders and looked her in the eyes.
"Sakura I was a mess on the way over to tell him about Gaara, after about 30 seconds of actual explanation the rest of the day was spent with him stroking my hair, asking me about Gaara, all that good stuff. Trust me because it's Kakashi sensei you have nothing to be anxious about."
"Naruto..."
"Yeah?"
"I've been wondering...do you see me differently now...?"
"What do you mean?"
"Like do you...I don't know...think of me as some kind of...floozy or something now...?"
"I would if you'd have done it with someone you didn't love. But you love Sasuke, that's the ultimate expression of love right?"
"Thanks Naruto...let's knock."
They knocked on the door and as expected Kakashi answered. So far, so good. He invited them in and got them each tea.
"So what brings you two here?"
"Well, me and Naruto have something to tell you."
"Oh, what is it?"
"It has to do with me and Sasuke-"
"Why isn't he here to tell me with you guys if it's about you and him?"
"He was kinda of afraid of you...a little..."
"Oh...so what is it you have to tell me?"
"Well you see...I uh well haven't been feeling so great these past few mornings...I asked Naruto to take me to the doctor...because I was late and uh...as it turns out...I'm expecting..."
"What?"
"Kakashi sensei don't make her repeat it."
"Sakura...how?"
"I'm pretty sure you're old enough to know how..."
"That's not what I meant...with Sasuke?"
"Yup."
"Wait wait wait...is this from the market?"
"NO! Ahem...I mean no...it's not."
"So even after I talked to him...he still...where is he again?"
"We shouldn't say...he's afraid you'll kill him...which I'm starting to realize is a very real fear..."
"So Naruto what do you make of all this?"
"Obviously it's a tad sooner than I thought something like this would happen but, it's what they've dreamed of in a way...they did it out of love not just pleasure...they'll be fine...plus they said I could be around a lot."
"So everyone's just OK with this?"
"It sound like you're not."
"OF COURSE I'M NOT! I mean you're like my daughter...you can't possibly be...I-I-I need some air..."
Kakashi went outside onto his balcony.
"N-naruto...he's really mad at me..."
"He's just a little shocked is all, I'll be right back."
Naruto kissed her forehead and walked out onto the balcony. Kakashi had his elbows on the railing and was holding his head.
"Sensei?"
What do you want..."
"Over-reacting a bit aren't we?"
"OVER-REACTING? Are you kidding me. If anything I'm..I'm UNDER- REACTING!"
"Stop! Look inside...that's Sakura on the brink of tears...because of you...I told her how you kept your cool when I told you about Gaara...she was really counting on that because she knew Sasuke couldn't come...you'd clearly hurt him in some way..."
"Naruto, how can you of all people be OK with this? They're probably end up together, married. How can you sit and watch this after you saw what he did to her?"
"Believe you me. I was NOT happy when she told me...I did my best to contain it...but I still came off mad...and nearly killing Sasuke didn't help either-"
"YOU WHAT?"
"It's not because I was mad at him for this. I just kinda felt like he was taking my place."
"So he's in the hospital?"
"...No...not anymore...do ya think I'd be that stupid to just blurt out his location in front of you...psh...nah...anyway...I was thinking if you're freaking out like this because it's so big you can't contain it...does that mean that my news...you contained youself then...are you OK with me and Gaara...?"
"...I just need some time to get used to it is all...you're like my son...it's just a big change is all..."
"So me and Sakura are your son and daughter, right?"
"Right."
"Where does that leave Sasuke?"
"I'm not sure right now."
"That's OK, now if you could kindly go in there and tell Sakura you're OK with everything we'll be on our way-"
"That'd be lying Naruto."
"Sensei I know it's a lot but...they did it out of love...I mean yes something bad happened but they've both put it in the past...I'm pretty sure Sakura is more OK with it than Sasuke...but I told her you'd be OK...don't make me a liar..."
"Naruto...why'd it have to be Sasuke?"
"Yea know I've heard this a lot the past week 'You can't help who you love,' now guess who told me that over and over while I was freaking out about Gaara...the same girl who's in tears on your sofa because she's afraid you hate her...let's go in"
