Okay, I'm really sorry for the long update. I have been studied for exams so...well. At least I update this. Okay, one of the reviewer ask me that Chiyo-baasama is already dead. Okay, I know. I thought I already wrote that this fic have AU timeline but still in the same world with the original story. Gaara never die and Akatsuki never attack Konoha either. So, Chiyo-baasama is still alive. Sorry, if it is confusing.....

Well, let's enjoy the story

Naruto was staring up at the blue sky. He flinched as a droplet of water fell onto his nose. He had just come back from practicing, he was drenched in sweat and his stomach growled with hunger. He smiled and began to walk back toward Kohana. A loud crack of thunder signaled a down pour and his smile quickly turned into a grimace

"Rain on a sunny day, how odd," he mumbled, cursing under his breath.

His shoes and clothes were soaked by the time he made it back to the village. He decided to eat in the Ichiraku not really excited after the rain had ruined the beautiful day. Lately, he felt something was wrong; he had been feeling anxious without any real reason. He wondered if it had any connection with the night he had lost his virginity but he couldn't be sure.

The rain wasn't that bad, he thought. It was a warm summers rain but he just wished it wasn't so wet. There were no grey clouds to be seen for miles yet the rain continued to fall. It was like the sky itself knew what was going on and weeping. He felt that something was off.

Naruto dodged in and out of hanging over roofs trying his best to keep dry. "Ne....young boy...."

Naruto jumped at the sound of the voice and turned to see who called him. He saw a small portly woman sitting behind a bare table with the word "forecast" sewn into the fabric. Ehhh -_-, it was the village's "psychic", she wore a worn out white coat her eyes hidden behind her thick outdated glasses. Naruto tried to act like he didn't hear her, he didn't like to mess around with fortune-tellers.

"I know you want to go, but young boy, just hear what I have to say," she pleaded. Naruto stared at her skeptically. Why would he care about what she had to say? She was the crazy old woman that "told fortunes"; despite the rain she continued to sit outside waiting for her next gullible victim, Naruto gaffed.

"What's wrong, Obaa-chan?" finally Naruto asked starting to feel sorry for her.

"I see bad luck in your future, I wanted to warn you to be cautious. Something is coming I sense it," she said with husky voice.

"Eh? What did you say?" asked Naruto not understanding or really listening to the crazy old bat.

"Listen to my advice. Everything that happens, happens for a reason, it is fate. Do not run away from your fate, for everything you have done thus far has woven this path for you. Straying from this path can be dangerous and harmful to those whose fates are directly connected with yours. Head my warning Uzamaki Naruto." She forbore.

Naruto blankly stared at her, he didn't understand any of this fate talk.

"Uh...Thanks for the advice, Obaa-chan. Now, I have to go," he said before turning and running back to his apartment hoping not to be caught by any other lunatics that evening.

But still…what she had said…

He had already felt that something was wrong; her odd words had somehow made him feel worse than before.

"Naruto, Tsunade-sama has called you to the Hokage Office! Hurry!"

Naruto turned to his pink haired comrade. He was half naked and dripping with sweat, the air was humid from the rain the night before but practice seemed to be the only thing to make him forget his forbearing feelings.

"Eh? Why? Tell Tsuande baa-chan that I'm practicing right now," he protested but a fierce glance from Sakura convinced him to pack up. He threw on his t-shirt, tied his jacket around his waist, and threw his weapon into his bag. Throwing the duffle over his shoulder he followed Sakura back towards the village.

"I don't know what's wrong. But, Tsunade-sama's seems very tense and worried, you should hurry up," she said looking over her shoulder at Naruto. He sighed and picked up the pace a little leaping from building to building towards the Hokage's office.

"Naruto, is something wrong? You've been acting weirder than normal. ," Sakura inquired jumping from roof to roof.

"R-really?" Naruto nervously laughed. She was right, he was acting differently even he could see it.

"Yeah, you look a less enthusiastic," she said. Naruto forced out a louder laugh trying to avoid the conversation.

"C-mon Sakura-chan, we should pick up the pace, I don't want Tsunade baa-chan get mad at me." Naruto said changing topics. He began moving faster; leaping now next to Sakura, he could feel her tense up.

The building grew in size the closer they came. While Sakura entered through the front door Naruto hopped up the buildings floors arriving at the Hokage's office window.

He saw the Fifth Hokage and Suzune in the room. He leap into the room obnoxiously but quickly returning outside with a good swat from Tsunade.

"You are late! Damn brat!" yelled Tsunade furiously.

"You a really are stupid Naruto," said Sakura, entering the room.

Naruto laughed warmly, it was hard to stay mad at him too long when she was always so cheerful. Tsunade sat down behind her desk and held up a piece of paper. Naruto stared at her starting to feel a little uneasy about this sudden meeting. Usually when he was called it wasn't so urgent, normally a mission assignment but Kakashi-Sensei was currently out on an S-ranked mission so him an Sakura were taking a break to practice.

So what could be so important that she would need to see him right now?

"Uhm... baa-chan, why'd you call me?" he asked, ignoring the fact that Tsunade hate "baa-chan" nickname.

Tsunade sighed, ignoring Naruto's bad attitude. A sudden emergency letter sent from Suna worried her, the note only stated "Send Uzumaki Naruto immediately!". It wasn't a big enough emergency for them to give details yet the message was labeled as urgent. Could it be a trap?

And, if it was about Naruto, Tsunade afraid that it wasn't good news.

"Okay, someone has called you to go to Suna," said Tsunade bluntly.

"For what?" asked Naruto thrown off by the odd request .

"I don't know, brat." She snapped at him growing irritated, "but I pray that it's nothing bad."

Naruto nodded stupidly.

"Well Naruto, prepare for your departure to Suna. You will leave tomorrow morning. The call for you seems really important so, watch your attitude while there and don't cause any problems. And finally Naruto…be careful…," Tsunade ordered.

"Okay, baa-chan! I will prepare my tools now! Jaa-ne!" and with that, Naruto was out of sight.

Tsunade sighed. Suzune and Sakura could tell she was really concerned.

"What's wrong, Tsunade-sama?" Sakura asked.

"I just have a bad feeling about this, well I guess there's nothing I can do but hope everything will be alright," answered Tsunade getting back to her paperwork. Shizune and Sakura looked at each other with concern.

Gaara was crying in his private room in the hospital. Kankurou and Temari looked at him worried. They had force the identity of the baby's father out of Gaara and now weeping feeling ashamed of himself.

Uzumaki Naruto.

Kankurou had nearly fainted when he heard Naruto's name while Temari wasn't really surprise. Naruto was Gaara's closest friend.

After regaining his senses, Kankurou had gone to the bird's aviary and sent the faster bird out to deliver the message to Konoha. He had made the letter short for lack of words and afraid he anger might get in the way. He was pissed to say the least, the whole idea of Naruto taking advantage of Gaara made him hell bent, but he was really grateful to Naruto for saving Gaara and changing him into the person he is today. At the time though this seemed to be unforgivable.

Gaara wept, his face pressed against his pillow muffling his sobs. Naruto would arrive there soon and discover that he had been his mysterious sex partner just a few months back, and now Gaara was carrying his child; how would he explain this?

He was now pregnant because of one mistake, but how could he have known? He never ever had any idea that he could get pregnant.

Now, he was pregnant with his best friend's child.

What would he do?

Chiyo-baasama left the choice with him. He could choose to abort the baby or to raise it.

What would the citizens of Suna think? Their Kazekage was pregnant, a pregnant male… surly they would ban him!

And what would happen to Naruto?

He wiped away his tear and sat up, startling the sleepy Temari.

"I...want to go out for awhile," he said weakly. Temari stood up.

"I will go with you," she said concerned.

"No, I just need some fresh air, don't worry about me Temari," he smiled convincingly. Temari sighed and nodded, but she was worried. Gaara was not in a healthy state, he was still throwing up and he barely ate anything. He continued to clutch at his stomach in pain, but she understood that he needed to get out. He had been cooped up in the room for 3 days now.

Gaara slowly rose from the bed, tenderly caressing his protruding tummy. Temari helped him pull his jacket over his arms.

Gaara smiled at her and waddled towards the door softly touching his stomach. Once out of the room he sighed slouching his shoulders, he really needed some fresh air or he feared his head might explode.

He grunted as he made his way down the hallway; his legs were shakey from lack of movement over the past few days and standing seemed to make his stomach pains more severe.

A few people greeted him he nodded and waved back, the atmosphere was depressing, he could hear crying and moaning echo through the hallways and the hospital smell burned his nose.

'I think I'll go up to the roof,' he thought. He loved heights.

He slowly made his way to the roof, quickly regretting his choice as climbing the stairs only caused his belly more pain.

What seemed like agonizing eternity later he arrived at the roof safely. The smell of fresh laundry made him smile and he glanced at the white bed sheets hanging out to dry. He grinned soaking up the warm sunlight, he made his way over to the edge.

He could see almost all of Suna, so beautiful and serene. With the cool breeze he felt like he could finally sort through all of his thoughts..

He didn't want an abortion. The baby was innocent in all of this…Naruto and his child. He wanted to raise it.

But how? What would happen to him and his baby? Was he strong enough to take care a fragile baby by himself.

And furthermore, what would he do about Naruto? What would Naruto do if he knew about the baby?

How he would do if Naruto didn't want him to keep the baby?

Gaara shook his head. Naruto would never do that. He knew Naruto, even though he was slow and sometimes annoying, he still loved and cared about everyone.

He blushed. It would be nice if he could raise the baby together with Naruto.

But, would Naruto want to?

"NARUTO!!!"

Gaara was startled to see Kankurou chasing someone on the roofs of Suna buildings.

Orange and black.

"Naruto!" Gaara gasped. He hadn't thought about how Kankurou would handle seeing Naruto.

Naruto ran from confused and frankly surprised to be greeted by a red faced Kankurou with his Kugutsu ready to tear him to pieces.

Gaara, trying his best to ignore the pulses of pain, hurried after the two. He tried to hurry but it had been awhile since he had done any real exercise but before he could reached the two Kankurou had cornered him on one of the roofs and Naruto was clumsily trying to talk his way out of the fight.

"Holy shit! What's my fault, you bastard!?" yelled Naruto trying to get out from Kankurou's hand. Gaara tried to jump faster but his sight was being blurred frin the pain of his stomach.

He could barely hear the conversation between Naruto and Kankurou even though they were shouting. Gaara was keeping all his concentration on each jump from roof to roof. His feet felt so heavy and his head pounded.

Finally he had reached the two bickering boys but as his feet touch the edge of the roof he felt his legs give out. He fell helplessly awaiting the crushing blow from the ground.

He clenched his eyes shut but the pain never came, he looked up to see Naruto's dirty face smiling back at him. Naruto helped Gaara all the way back on the roof and sit down.

"Gaara! Holy shit don't do that you scared me! Whoa, hey you're really pale are you alright? And what's with the getup? Have you been at the Hospital!?" Naruto was starting to get obnoxious.

Gaara stared down at Naruto's feet, not able to make eye contact with him. What would he do!? What would he say?!

"No..it's...," he said softly. He closed his eyes, his head was spinning, he couldn't take this pressure and his stomach hurt so much. He felt his eyes roll back in his head and his body go limp falling into Naruto's embrace.

He heard Kankurou's yell for help and Naruto's strong hands supporting him, then everything went black.
