A/N Sorry for any confusion. It all makes sense in my head but I'm the one who has the story running through their brain. Chapter 5 is just a flashback to the fight. Chapter six and on is continuing with the story. I love all of you who have favorited, followed, reviewed and just plain read the story. I hope you've all had fun with it. Hope it made you laugh, cry and maybe even blush!
Haruko consented to quit trying to stop the boys from training and to help when she had time. So Naruto and Sakura left the teens to figure things out on their own.
"I can't believe you killed her," Naruto confessed, still in shock by the turn of events.
"I stopped her heart for less than 30 seconds, she wasn't really dead," she defended.
"I saw that you're still at the top of your game. You been training all this time?" he asked.
"Yeah, can't have you and Sasuke get too far ahead of me or I'll be useless. Not that you would ever call me that, but I would feel like I was. There were a lot of people out there willing to teach me things I would have never learned here. I am going to see if my old teacher will train me some more or suggest a new one for me. You know you're student is pretty amazing," she complimented.
"You two seem to have hit it off pretty well," he noted.
"I like her. She's too bold sometimes but at least its entertaining," she laughed.
"By too bold, you mean vulgar," he assumed raising a curious brow.
"I do think she needs more female influence in her life, I think that would help with her antics," she commented.
"Like you're the picture of femininity," he scoffed, getting himself a light love tap from the pinkett.
"More lady like than any of you idiots," she growled, sounding nothing like a lady.
"The fifth was one of her teachers," he pointed out, not his best example.
"And I know from personal experience that I am more feminine than all of her teachers put together," she fumed. Naruto just smirked at her.
They were walking hand in hand back to the Hokage tower. Naruto wanted to finish his breakfast but he was sure his other assistant was going to be there breathing down his neck to get some work done. They were walking by a park with screaming children when Naruto heard his name being called. He looked to see a beautiful lady walking towards them. She was like a doll brought to life. Sakura was taken back by her graceful strides. She was the picture of femininity.
"Jun, how are you?" he asked, as she bowed to the Hokage, low and respectful.
"Hokage-sama, it is a pleasure to see you out in the fresh air and not in your office," she smiled as she stood.
"Thanks, you got the herd out here?" he asked gesturing to the playground.
She giggled at the pet name of her children, "yes, Sasuke and Tomo are trying to run out some of their energy."
"Think I will go say hi to the kids, I haven't seen them in a while," Naruto said leaving the two women alone.
"You two look well together," Jun stated.
Sakura was surprised by the genuine smile on the woman's face, "thanks," she murmured.
"My father had sent me here with intentions of winning the Hokage-sama over, but," she trailed off, eyes wondering to the men playing with the children.
Sasuke looked over to see his first wife chatting with his old teammate and his best friend joining him with the kids and his second wife. The oldest children rushed the blond man, squeals of delight and demands for piggy back rides were heard through out the play ground. Naruto's boisterous laughter equaled the children's.
Sakura noticed the private smile on the woman's face and how her hand would find its way to her belly.
"How far along are you?" Sakura asked.
The woman blushed, "you can tell?" she asked.
"I did some time as a small village doctor, I saw a lot of pregnant women, you start to pick up on the signs," the medic ninja laughed.
"Not very far, Sasuke doesn't even know yet," the beautiful woman admitted.
"If that is Tomo, then it looks like she is carrying too," Sakura noted watching another woman with a toddler on her hip.
"She has some questions about this pregnancy, would you look at her?" Jun wondered.
"I'd be happy to," Sakura replied. Jun called over the other wife. Tomo handed Naruto the youngster and headed to join the other two women.
Naruto watched as the women began to chat. A far away look crossed his rugged features.
"You know she loves you. She had for a while before she left. Seems her feelings for you haven't diminished at all. I don't know when she fell out of infatuation with me and in love with you. Must have been when you two were chasing my sorry ass all over. She's confessed to you twice, you're not going to get it out of her a third time," Sasuke warned his friend staring after the women.
Naruto looked over at his friend, not sure what to say, " I know, I'm useless," he shrugged.
Sasuke laughed and clasp him on the shoulder, "at least you can finally admit it!"
The ladies talked about how well Sasuke and Naruto were with the children. Tomo wanted all of the gossip she could get about her husband before she had met him. Sakura didn't have much to tell them so she moved the subject to something she was confident talking about.
"Jun said you had some questions about this pregnancy?" Sakura asked the woman. The pregnant woman seemed taken back by Sakura's down to business attitude.
"Just seems different from my last two," she answered shyly.
"May I?" Sakura asked holding up a hand in the direction of the woman's belly, Tomo consented, and Sakura placed her hand on the woman, "I see. Do multiple births run in your family?" she questioned.
"I think its a requirement for Sasuke, my first pregnancy was twins," Tomo joked.
"Well, they seem fine but if you want all of them to make it than I suggest you take some medical leave, I can sign off on the papers for you or your regular doctor can," Sakura offered.
"Thank you!" Tomo yelled and trapped Sakura in a hug. The men joined them wondering what was going on.
"What's this about? Don't you two go adding women without my permission," Sasuke snipped, mostly to get a rise out of Naruto.
"Its nothing like that, Dear. Hokage-sama, I'm going to need some time off, medical leave," Tomo informed them. Sasuke eyed his second wife.
"Bring me the doctors note," Naruto commented catching on what she meant, she had taken leave two times since her marriage to the grumpy ninja next to him.
"I'm sure Sakura can tell you all about it over pillow talk," she teased. The blond couldn't help but blush.
"What's going on?" Sasuke demanded. His wives shared a look then both smiled.
"I'm pregnant," they announced together with genuine smiles on their lovely faces.
"You know you keep taking my best ANBU out of commission, its getting old," Naruto taunted his friend who seemed to have become frozen. Slowly a smile crept onto his face.
"Both of you, at the same time?" he asked.
"Yes, Dear," they both sighed. Sasuke's laughter roared out.
"I'm going to have a dozen kids before you get one," he teased, elbowing the Hokage in the ribs before he hugged and kissed his wives.
Naruto gave him a disproving look for the elbow but he wasn't going to ruin Sasuke's moment of joy. Sakura beamed, she had missed out on the other births of her friend's children, but now she was back and she wanted to make up for all the time they missed. She moved beside Naruto and took her hand in his free one while leaning on his shoulder, enjoying the scene in front of her. The joy on the two women's faces was something she had seen many times but was yet to experience. She couldn't help feel a little jealous of the two women. Not because they had Sasuke but because they were bringing new life into the world with the man they love.
Naruto noticed the look of longing on her face and old wounds flared up. He couldn't help it, when it came to her, he didn't always think clearly.
"I better get to work," he stated handing the toddler to his father and excused himself from the group and headed toward the tower still holding the woman's hand he loved. He couldn't bring himself to let her go even if he had pain stinging at his heart.
"One of these days, I'm going to do what they're doing," Sakura spoke softly, she had noticed his mood change.
"Marry Sasuke and have a bunch of babies?" Naruto said it teasingly but he really wanted an answer.
"Not with Sasuke, but get married and have a couple babies, not sure how many you consider a bunch," she teased back.
Naruto's mood lifted and he realized he was being over sensitive to the topic of her and Sasuke. She had spent a wild night with him, not the man she use to hold a torch for. Thinking back to the fight, she had flat out turned Sasuke down when he asked her to be his.
"Well they have a herd, not sure I want that many," he chuckled.
"You'd need more than one wife if you wanted that many," she snickered.
"There we go, we can see how many wives we can get in our harems, that would be a great competition for me and that jerk," Naruto laughed but he knew the Uchiha would win. Naruto only wanted one woman to be his wife.
"Just so you know, I don't share, so you'll never get me in a harem," she warned with a smirk.
"If I trap you in first then you can't protest when I add more ladies," he bantered.
She stopped and he turned to face her, "good luck living through that," she vexed tapping a foot on the ground crossing her arms in an angry stance.
He loved her attitude, she was so spunky. He walked up to her and took her chin in his fingers.
"You're more than enough woman for me," he purred, coaxing a blush out of her cheeks.
