Being a dad means hearing scratching noises coming from the other side of the bed at night- and learning that itching becomes even more of a problem later in pregnancy.
Gaara as he laid awake in bed reading, began to hear noises coming Neji's side of the bed. They sounded an awful lot like scratching noises but Neji made sure he had properly lathered on cream to prevent something as embarrassing as scratching.
Still, the noise was persistent. And annoying. Gaara leaned over to check, in case it really was Neji making those noises. It was. Neji looked like he wasn't even aware that Gaara was watching him, much less he was scratching his own arm.
It went on the secret scratching. At doctor visits, they were told that scratching was a problem in pregnancy and it got worse with the months but Neji scoffed at the idea of him scratching his skin. He used the best skin care products money could buy.
Some things, Gaara decided, were better left unsaid.
