Still May 8th
He had been sleeping peacefully, Naruto's arm wrapped around his waist a comforting presence when he fell in and out of REM. He had trained his body to fall into REM every fifteen minutes and then fall back out of it in five. The rest of his sleep was so light he knew he was asleep and ready to snap out of it in a second in case any enemy was waiting to attack. Then the feeling came upon him suddenly; it was the feeling that woke him from his REM sleep and Sasuke knew exactly what that feeling was. That irritating feeling of being watched by someone unwanted. As soon as Sasuke's eyes opened, he was aware of more than one presence entering the small apartment.
Naruto was still soundly asleep next to him; their limbs entangled which made it hard for Sasuke to prepare for a fight. Several enemies were already reaching towards them, their shadowy figures darker than the rest of the apartment. Sasuke lashed out with his free arm but it was grabbed before he could cause any damage, they gripped his wrist and tugged him from the bed. Sasuke could feel Naruto halfway following him off the bed, snorting as the falling sensation woke him up. The grip on his wrist turned and his whole arm was behind his back, an arm holding his neck back as he was dragged from the bed. Attempting to get on his feet, Sasuke pushed his feet into the floor but it was hard with the enemy continuously stepping backwards.
There was no weapon pressed against any of his vitals, no sharp stab of someone blocking his pressure or chakra points. This enemy was trying to stop him from attacking, which probably meant that the enemy was the anbu squad he had been worried about twelve hours ago. Suddenly, the fluorescent lights from the ceiling blinded Sasuke; he blinked quickly and counted the enemies. Six anbu, Kakashi and Tsunade, the Hokage were there, neither of the last two looked happy.
His first instinct was to fight his captor but he held himself back, knowing it would cause more trouble for both himself and Naruto. He relaxed his body, letting his shoulders drop and chin rest on the anbu's elbow. Sasuke watched as Naruto was grabbed by his shoulders and pushed to stand up but the blonde was still mostly asleep and slumped on the anbu holding him. Angrily, the anbu slapped Naruto upside the head, the blonde yelped and curled inward, hands reaching for his head.
"Fuck!" Naruto yelled. He squeezed his eyes shut as pain coursed through his head. Then, he opened his eyes and all Sasuke could see was anger in those icy blue depths. "What the hell are you doing here?" Naruto growled, he stood up on his own feet and pushed the anbu away from him. Blue eyes darted towards the white haired jonin and the way older blonde Hokage to Sasuke who was currently held hostage. "Let him go." Naruto started to step forward towards Sasuke and his captor but Kakashi moved to stand in his way. "What the hell, Kakashi?" Naruto yelled.
"Calm down Naruto. You need to cool down so we can talk this out. Violence is not what you need right now." Kakashi calmly told the blonde. "Sasuke seems to understand this well enough." The white haired ninja turned to look at Sasuke, that one eye knowingly staring at him. At this Naruto seemed to relax some, the glare softening and his body going lax. Now Tsunade stepped forward, her hazel eyes watching Sasuke angrily.
"Find out who put up the barrier." Tsunade motioned for one of the anbu to do the task and the masked man disappeared to check out the house.
"It's in the bathroom on the sink." Sasuke muttered. He watched as the anbu reappeared, coming back from the bathroom, the scroll rolled up. "I created it but Naruto put it into effect by his own will." The anbu handed the scroll to Tsunade who unrolled it and confirmed what Sasuke was saying. Handing the scroll back to the anbu, Tsunade sighed and rubbed her temples.
"Why would you do this? Both of you know what's at stake here." Tsunade mumbled. Sasuke stayed silent but Naruto took another step forward, angry again.
"It doesn't concern you, any of you, this was between me and Sasuke." Naruto growled out, the anbu behind him stepped forward with him, arm reaching out to grasp the blonde's shoulder.
"Sasuke is still considered a risk, regardless of what you think and how he acts. Creating a barrier that blocks his anbu watch is an immediate flag. For that reason alone, I could have you executed." Tsunade turned to Sasuke and watched him with those sharp brown eyes. "What would possess you to risk everything you both have worked so long and hard for?"
"We didn't do anything wrong! Sasuke is still here in the village, he's been nothing but fucking perfect all these months! You still think he's a flight risk?" Naruto burst out. He attempted to shrug the hand off his shoulder but the anbu tightened his grip.
Sasuke took a deep breath, holding in his anger and he answered carefully. "It was something Naruto and I had to do alone, it didn't concern the village. It was a private matter." Sasuke looked to Naruto, hoping the blonde would calm down before he did something irrational.
"So this matter has been fixed?" Tsunade asked. She regarded Sasuke carefully, looking for anything that would contradict what he said. Naruto grit his teeth but didn't move from where he stood.
"It has." Sasuke shifted in his position, the anbu only tightening his grip in response. The blonde Hokage's eyes narrowed and she stepped closer, the clacking of her heels the only sound in the room. Her eyes not looking at Sasuke's face but at his shoulder where the flawless skin was marred with only bite marks and a hickey. Sasuke shifted again, the first time was to point the woman in the right direction, to see that his cursed seal was gone. This time it was real, he didn't want her to look to hard and find the new seal, that would ruin everything.
"I see." Tsunade muttered, she examined his shoulder for a few more moments and then closed her eyes, sighing heavily. "You're both stubborn idiots." She said finally waving her hand at the anbu holding Sasuke. The anbu released Sasuke's arm and neck, stepping back away from the Uchiha as he did so. Sasuke just massaged his wrist for a moment before letting it drop to his side; it would leave a small bruise if anything at all. "Kakashi," Tsunade called out the Jonin's name before continuing. "It looks like we won't be needing your Sharingan to retain anyone. Go home." Kakashi gave a small bow before looking over at Sasuke with a knowing look and then disappearing.
"All of you!" Tsunade barked, pointing at the anbu. "Get out of here, these idiots just wanted to break Sasuke's curse seal by themselves instead of letting a professional do it before doing it so go on! Scat!" The anbu obeyed, each giving a head bow before disappearing as well, their presences gone from the small apartment. Sasuke relaxed a little until Tsunade turned back on him, finger pointed at his noise. "Listen brat, next time you do a stupid move like that let me know so I don't have to deal with the repercussions you made tonight. You owe me a bottle of sake and I expect it after your mission tomorrow." With that Tsunade huffed angrily and walked out the front door. "And put some clothes on, I swear you're trying to turn the whole anbu squad gay."
At the last comment Sasuke blinked, looking down he realized that throughout the entire interrogation, which had taken maybe four minutes total, he had been completely naked. The door slammed shut but neither of the occupants in the apartment were paying attention to the Hokage leaving.
"Aw hell!" Naruto whined. Sasuke looked up to see Naruto covering his face with his hands, most likely since he was in almost the same state Sasuke was, completely naked only no kiss marks and scratches all over his body. At first Sasuke just watched Naruto lament over the discovery of their already obvious 'secret relationship' and then just chuckled and grinned. Naruto looked up, eyes peeking through his fingers.
"Teme, why are you grinning? We could have gotten into so much shit for that." Naruto nearly screamed. Sasuke walked over to his lover and wrapped his arms around the blonde's shoulders, tilting his head upwards to look up at his lover.
"But we didn't," Sasuke murmured. He let Naruto pull his hands down, they came to Sasuke's waist and pulled the Uchiha's lower body closer to his own. "I didn't realize I was perfect, model prisoner yes, but perfect." Blonde eyebrows rose up at the sultry tone Sasuke took as he leaned forwards for a quick peck on the lips, their hips grinding against each other. Naruto grinned when Sasuke backed out of the kiss and followed the Uchiha's lips. They kissed again, Naruto sucking on Sasuke's lower lip.
"Really?" Naruto asked after he broke the kiss, grinning from ear to ear. Sasuke bat his eyelashes, mocking what a girl would do.

May 14th, the first week
Sasuke collapsed back onto the bed, breathing heavily as Naruto fell on top of his lover, eyes closed in bliss.
"Fuck, that was great." Naruto breathily whispered, Sasuke just 'hn'ed in response, breathing heavily as he came down from cloud nine. "Oh, by the way, Teme, I'm home." Sasuke opened his eyes to roll them.
"Welcome home, Dobe." Sasuke muttered and closed his again. His blonde had just come back from an overnight mission, surprising Sasuke who had slept in to recover from the day the blonde had left.
After a few minutes Naruto rolled off his lover, pulled his head up and rested it on his elbow. "So what are we going to do, Sasuke? It looks like any of the eggs didn't fertilize." Sasuke sighed and shifted onto his side, turning to face the blonde.
"We still have a few days Naruto, besides, let me worry about the eggs. I can always get more at the hospital." Sasuke muttered, he watched as Naruto brought his other arm up to rub Sasuke's shoulder gently.
"But what if they catch you? They weren't paying a lot of attention the first time around but now they'll notice even the tiniest thing you do out of the ordinary." Naruto watched as Sasuke rolled his eyes and then brought his hand up to Sasuke's face, he held the Uchiha's chin and leaned forward for a kiss. Sasuke accepted the kiss and closed his eyes, gently kissing Naruto back. When Naruto pulled away, Sasuke blinked slowly, calmly taking in the blonde's slightly worried expression.
"I just don't want to lose you Sasuke, trying for a baby isn't worth having you taken away from me." Naruto mumbled and stroked Sasuke's cheek lovingly. Sighing, Sasuke raised his hand to hold Naruto's, he pulled it off his cheek and held it to his chest.
"Usuratonkachi," Sasuke stated. "I'm not a genin who's going to get caught." Naruto blinked then chuckled, he turned his hand around to grasp Sasuke's, holding it tightly. Sasuke looked down to their hands and then down to where their feet were entangled. Clean pale legs wrapped around tan dirty legs, smudges of dirt all over those long limbs "Now go get a shower, you're still dirty from your mission." Sasuke grunted and shifted on the bed, turning away from the blonde. Naruto gripped Sasuke's hand tightly as Sasuke shifted, Naruto felt the Uchiha tighten his grip as well before pulling his hand out of the embrace.
"Teme, your such an asshole." Naruto muttered as he climbed over the Uchiha, kissing him on the lips once more before heading for the bathroom to the shower. As soon as Naruto stepped out of sight, Sasuke shifted again, turning around so he could lie on his right side and doze off. He'd take a nap before his meeting with the Hokage.
Sighing, Sasuke heard the shower turn on, then his blonde's voice singing some random tune that happened to be stuck in his head. Unable to keep himself from shifting one last time, Sasuke relaxed and drifted off, the warm tingling feeling on his shoulder chalked up to the fact Naruto had bit it earlier. Subconsciously, Sasuke heard the shower turning off and could tell when Naruto stopped singing. He heard the blonde walk out of the bathroom but was too content in his half-asleep state to turn around and watch Naruto come back towards the bed. All of sudden, he heard Naruto's feet pounding against the wooden floors and Sasuke was being thrown onto his back. Opening his eyes, Sasuke came face to face with Naruto who was grinning like a mad man. Blinking once, then twice, Sasuke glared at the Dobe for interrupting his nap so rudely.
"What the hell, Dobe?" Sasuke asked, Naruto's grin just got wider and his hand reached towards Sasuke's shoulder. Sasuke rolled his shoulder to move the blonde's wet hand but Naruto quickly replaced it, annoying the Uchiha. Naruto didn't care that he was still dripping wet, he leaned down and kissed his lover roughly, pulling back only because the pissed off male below him had bit him. Sasuke just continued to glare at Naruto since the blonde practically refused to answer Sasuke's question.
"Ow, Teme, that hurt." Naruto his tongue briefly made an appearance through those lips, checking the damage that Sasuke had done. Sasuke just scoffed.
"It's not bleeding, Dobe, now tell me why you're excited?"
"The seal." Naruto whispered excitedly, Sasuke took a moment to look at what Naruto was talking about. Naruto's hand trailed downwards as he leaned down and kissed the Uchiha on the cheeks, then moving upwards to nibble on his ear. Sasuke could see the seal on his shoulder; it's black ink standing out against his pale skin. It took a moment for the information to sink in and what it meant now that the seal had activated.
"Dobe, don't tell me your activating the seal right now." Sasuke whispered, Naruto grinned against the side of Sasuke's face.
"You would kill me if I was." Naruto answered, he kissed Sasuke's cheek again and brought his hand up to cup Sasuke's chin and move it so Sasuke was looking back up at the blonde. "So if what you told me was right, you're pregnant, huh, Sasuke?" Naruto's grin was in full force and it was infectious, Sasuke couldn't help but smile back, truly happy.
"The egg was fertilized and it attached to the chakra uterus," Sasuke said softly. "Naruto, I'm pregnant." Naruto leaned down and kissed his newly pregnant lover. The kiss started chaste but Sasuke was so happy he deepened the kiss, running his tongue over Naruto's abused lower lip. Naruto let Sasuke's tongue inside his own mouth, the excited muscle wriggling around canines and molars. Naruto pushed his own tongue against Sasuke's, fighting him for dominance. The Uchiha quickly receded into his own mouth and Naruto followed, he sucked on Sasuke's lower lip before sucking on the top lip. A moan escaped Sasuke's mouth as Naruto plundered the Uchiha's orifice. Tan hands travelled down Sasuke's body, coming to rest at the Uchiha's pale abdomen.
"Mmm," Naruto moaned. He broke the kiss and continued to grin like a fool, and Sasuke was too giddy to stop himself from smiling wide. "Finding out your pregnant kind of makes me want to go another round." Sasuke chuckled and wrapped his arms around the blonde's neck, pulling him closer.
"To bad, Dobe, you took too long in the shower and I have a meeting with the Hokage soon. You'll just have to wait for tonight." Sasuke kissed his Dobe on the cheek and pushed the blonde off him. Naruto let Sasuke go, watching his happy lover strut towards the bathroom for a shower.
"We're going to have to celebrate you know!" Naruto called after his Uchiha, grinning like a madman. "Ichiraku's tonight." The blonde said to himself.
"Like hell I'm going to eat ramen, Dobe." Sasuke called from the bathroom, the shower turned on and Sasuke busied himself with his shower routine.
Sasuke had to pry himself from Naruto's overbearingly loving grip. From the moment the Uchiha stepped out of the shower he was either in Naruto's arms or trying to get out of them. "Sasuke! I should come with you!" Naruto called out as Sasuke stepped out of the apartment, that blonde trying to hold the door open. Sasuke pushed Naruto back and glared at him.
"No, Dobe," Sasuke growled. "Stop acting clingy or you're sleeping on the couch." Naruto immediately deflated, bright blue eyes softening until tears were growing in the corners of his eyes.
"But, Sasuke!" The blonde whined, he reached for the door again but Sasuke stepped back inside pointing a finger at the teary eyed blonde.
"No one can know, Dobe, you acting like this is going to be a dead giveaway." Sasuke hissed, he gave Naruto one more look as the blonde sighed and let the teary eyed look drop. "No more, got it?"
"Got it." Naruto glumly muttered, Sasuke rolled his eyes and raised his hand to grip the collar of Naruto's shirt. He leaned upwards and kissed the blonde on the lips, Naruto reacted immediately. Opening the door wider so he could pull Sasuke closer to him, one of his arms resting over the Uchiha's clothed seal. Sasuke had changed into a short sleeve, skin-tight, turtle necked blue shirt and black shorts, the weather was too nice to wear a long sleeved shirt but Sasuke wasn't going to show off his new seal for all to see. Naruto tried to deepen the kiss but Sasuke pushed against the blonde's bare chest and broke the kiss. Said blonde licked his lips happily and leaned down for one last chaste kiss.
"I love you." Naruto whispered softly, squeezing Sasuke's shoulder gently. Sasuke nodded and rolled his eyes. Sasuke stepped out of Naruto's grip and out of the doorway, his hair blowing to the side in the breeze.
"I'll be back later, Dobe." Sasuke turned around and started walking down the hallways of apartments, heading toward the Hokage tower. The door didn't shut for as long as Sasuke was in hearing distance and Sasuke could feel Naruto's eyes on him up until he jumped off the railing and onto the nearby rooftops.
The air was fresh, a breeze blowing against Sasuke's face as he headed towards the Hokage tower at a slow pace, it was just starting to be the middle of May and the cold weather was beginning to fade into something a little more warmer. The blonde's sudden change in attitude could only be explained as reaction to the baby, the sudden clinginess of being a parent more annoying than the regular Dobe. Sasuke had been expecting something like this to happen but didn't think it would happen so quickly.
They were eighteen, maybe it was because they were so young that this was affecting them so much already. Then again, it could be what every loving couple would feel when they found out trying to get pregnant actually worked. Either way, the blonde needed to act normal, no one needed to know that Sasuke and him were having a baby. Taking a few moments to enjoy the weather Sasuke made his way up to the entrance of the tower, he reluctantly walked through the door that led to the inner workings of the tower, where the air conditioning would only buzz annoyingly. Not that anyone would be able to tell by the always-stoic look on his face.
Picking up the pace, Sasuke made his way to the Hokage's office, briskly walking past several jonin and chuunin with paperwork in their hands. When the Hokage's office door was in sight, a blur moved right in front of it, an anbu standing in front of the door with their arms crossed over their chest. A bear mask hiding the person's face. Sasuke stopped in front of the anbu, patiently waiting for the male to disappear up into the ceiling again or step aside. The anbu nodded to Sasuke and stepped aside as the door opened from the inside. Kakashi stepped through the doorway, staring straight at the Uchiha. Sasuke interpreted the look as mildly happy; he could just barely make out the upward curvature of his smile beneath his mask. Said ninja nodded to Sasuke and walked past, patting Sasuke's left shoulder gently.
Sasuke's first instinct was to go tense, fearing that Kakashi could somehow feel the seal beneath his shirt. He resisted though, watching his mentor walk by. The second instinct was to wonder why the Jonin was smiling; he didn't have time to figure it out before turning his eyes back to the Hokage's office. Tsunade was busy shuffling some papers, making it look like she had done some work before opening one of the drawers of her desk and pulled out a bottle of sake and a cup. The anbu next to Sasuke disappeared back into the ceiling, watching from above. Stepping inside, Sasuke closed the door behind him, Tsunade said nothing as she poured a cup and downed it in one go. Stepping to the middle of the room, Sasuke watched as Tsunade poured herself a second cup. She still refused to acknowledge Sasuke's presence and he was fine with that, he knew the older woman was still pissed off at him from a little over a week ago. The bottle of sake hadn't really helped, yet.
"Uchiha Sasuke." Tsunade said after she downed the second cup full, she poured herself a third and sipped it carefully. "You have good taste in alcohol." Tsunade looked up at the Uchiha then downed the rest of the third cup.
"Thought you might enjoy it." Sasuke said, nodding his head towards the Hokage. Tsunade started to pour the fourth drink and set the bottle down, she set her elbows on the desk and folded her fingers together so she could rest her chin on them.
"You were asked here so I could get several things cleared up for the sake of paperwork." Tsunade growled. Sasuke nodded his head again in understanding; he shifted his stance, stuffing his hands in his pockets. It would be easy to fend off a drunken Hokage but he would still have to be careful with the anbu that hid in the ceiling. They constantly watched the Hokage's every interaction with every person she talked to. "Alright, you created the seal and convinced Naruto to activate it so you could get rid of the curse mark on your shoulder, correct?" Tsunade asked, golden brown eyes glaring at him with intensity.
"He knew what would happen if he activated the barrier, I didn't convince him. He chose." Sasuke refuted. Tsunade's eyes narrowed but she didn't contradict him.
"Fine, are you aware that other than that one issue you have done nothing wrong, a perfect record, since you've returned?" Tsunade asked, her expression didn't change and Sasuke found it hard to figure out what she was thinking.
"I am now." Sasuke truthfully answered, he honestly hadn't paid attention in a long time. He just did his job and got home to his Dobe quickly, Naruto had said he had been perfect but the blonde hadn't been watching him every minute of the day. The Hokage closed her eyes and sighed heavily, leaning back into her chair and grabbed the cup of sake before sipping it slowly.
"Well then it is my duty to inform you that you are being taken off probation for several reasons." She set the cup down and crossed her arms over her large chest, swaying her chair back and forth. "First, you have been on probation for the length of time we set, second, your only infraction was stopping the anbu from watching you which would have been considered a break in the contract except for the fact Naruto was the one who put up the barrier." Tsunade downed the rest of the fourth cup before continuing.
"Third, the Chuunin exams are coming up in less than two months and Kakashi feels that allowing you to participate in it will not only be healthy for you but for the village as well. I have to agree," Tsunade reached for the bottle of sake but stopped when her hand grasped the neck of the bottle. "Having you on higher ranking missions will prove to certain figures here that it was worth keeping you here and alive." The words had no venom behind them and Sasuke knew whom the Hokage was talking about.
"So against the Elders wishes you're taking me off probation," Sasuke stated, watching Tsunade nod and slowly pour herself a fifth cup of sake. "And you do know it's not even two in the afternoon." Tsunade set the bottle down and glared at Sasuke, daring him to say anything more.
"I'm done dealing with paperwork and preparing for something that isn't happening for two months, anbu won't be following you anymore. Now get out of my office and go train or fuck the brat or something." Tsunade looked down at the bottle of sake, not paying Sasuke any more attention and let him find his own way out. Sasuke nodded to the Hokage before turning around and walk out of the office, stoic expression still stuck on his face as he walked through the hallway back outside where the wind blew into his face, his expression softening at the feeling of warm weather. The thought of no longer being on probation gave Sasuke enough reason to smirk but the other part of news gave him reason to be seriously concerned. In two months he would be partaking in the Chuunin exams, he'd be that many weeks pregnant.
Naruto had been impatiently waiting for Sasuke's return for ten minutes now, after the Uchiha had left. It couldn't take much longer for the old hag to finish speaking to his lover and for him to return. Trying to stop himself from thinking about his newly pregnant lover, Naruto attempted to clean the apartment.
The bed was stripped and the sheets hidden in the washer, just sitting there. Naruto didn't know where Sasuke hid the washing detergent. He had picked up his clothes and thrown them into the closet, then took them out and re-stuffed them. The blonde had even attempted to wash the dishes but soon gave up when the dishwasher was empty and the sink clean. With nothing to do, Naruto opted to walk around the apartment anxiously, waiting for Sasuke's return. He tried sitting down and looking at some scrolls but his mind was occupied by thoughts of Sasuke.
They had done it, Sasuke was pregnant. The fact seemed impossible; it made Naruto so happy he didn't know what to do with himself. At one point he wanted to tell everyone in the whole village and the next he wanted to Sasuke home with him, in bed where he could feel that flat abdomen for days until it grew round and full of a growing these emotions and he was just sitting there on the couch in their apartment, waiting for Sasuke to get back. He didn't know what to do. It felt like he should be doing something, being active, buying baby things or a crib or something. Naruto was just so happy and excited. The front door opened and Naruto's head spun to look at the new comer. Sasuke stood in the entryway, taking off his shoes and heading for Naruto, the stoic expression the Uchiha normally had on his face evident.
"Sasuke!" Naruto yelled. He leaped from the couch onto Sasuke, surprising the other male as the fell backwards onto the wooden floor with a loud 'fwump'. Naruto saw Sasuke wince as his head hit the wooden floor. Immediately Naruto went into freaked out mode, scared he had hurt his lover.
"Oh shit!" Naruto cried out. Sasuke blinked and stared at the blonde with a confused expression on his face.
"What, Dobe?" Sasuke asked. Naruto brought his hands to Sasuke's face and held it carefully
"I didn't hurt the baby did I?" Sasuke looked at him incredulously.
"Naruto you're an idiot." The blonde stared dumbfounded for a moment and the expression made Sasuke want to laugh; he smiled and watched as Naruto quickly realized he had done something stupid and frowned. "Now get off me, I've got something to tell you." Naruto got up off the Uchiha reluctantly, holding his hand out for Sasuke to take, which he did gratefully. Once Sasuke was on his feet, he squeezed Naruto's hand and pulled him farther into the apartment. They stopped at the bed and Sasuke pulled the blonde to sit on the mattress, giving him a look of confusion as to why the sheets were missing. Naruto grinned sheepishly, scratching the back of his head.
"Um, I guess I went a little stir crazy and thought I could do some chores." Naruto muttered and Sasuke just shook his head.
"So the Hokage wanted to talk to me today about my probation." Sasuke started, this immediately got Naruto's attention, he stared enraptured at Sasuke, waiting for the Uchiha to tell him more. "She's taking me off of it, I can take C rank missions now."
Naruto immediately smiled and leaned over to kiss the Uchiha but Sasuke stopped him, he brought his hand up to the blonde's tan shoulder. "Sasuke that's great! We really need to celebrate now." Naruto grinned; Sasuke nodded but didn't smile along with Naruto, which meant to the blonde that there was more.
"She wants me to participate in the Chuunin exams, the one coming up in the next two months." Sasuke motioned to his stomach. "I'll be almost seven weeks pregnant Dobe, I'll just have gotten to the middle of the first trimester and I might have a baby bump starting to show." Sasuke stopped, thinking for a moment before continuing. "I want to know what you want to do."
"What do you mean Sasuke?" Naruto asked, he grabbed Sasuke's hand off of his shoulder and held it between his own hands.
"Should I take the Chuunin exams or should I not? It would be dangerous, risking the baby's life. We'd also be risking people finding out about it, but I might not have a chance to take it again. Once the baby is born, I'll have to go on maternity leave to take care of it, it could be, two, three years before I'd be able to take the exams again." Sasuke stopped; he looked away from the blonde. "I don't want to make any decisions without you, Dobe, this is your baby too." Naruto nodded and leaned against the wall, dragging Sasuke to lie on top of him, the Uchiha's head on his tan chest. He wrapped his arm around Sasuke's shoulder and relaxed, thinking about the news.
"So," Naruto said after a few moments of silence. "If you don't take the exam you'll be a genin for maybe another three years and if you do it could get out that you're pregnant or even worse we could lose the baby if you die?" Naruto asked, Sasuke snorted and pulled Naruto's hand to his chest.
"I'm not going to die, Dobe." Sasuke muttered, clenching his hand around Naruto's.
"Then you won't let the baby get hurt, I'm not worried about you taking the next Chuunin exam, you should do it, Teme." Naruto whispered as he toyed with Sasuke's fingers slowly. Sasuke thought about it for a moment longer as the blonde's other hand found a resting spot on Sasuke's abdomen rubbing it soothingly.
"Then it's decided, I'm taking the Chuunin exam in two months, baby bump and all." Sasuke sighed and lifted his head upwards, looking at the blonde. "So where are we going to dinner to celebrate?" Naruto grinned and looked down at his lover, rubbing his lover's abdomen lovingly.
"Ichiraku's?" Naruto asked, Sasuke smirked and pulled Naruto's finger backwards roughly. "Ow, ow, ow! I was joking, Teme, joking!" Naruto tried to pull his hand away but Sasuke had it in a tight grip.
"Where are you taking me for dinner, Dobe?" Sasuke asked again, Naruto tried to pull his finger out of Sasuke's grasp but Sasuke pulled it farther back, making the blonde yelp.
"Barbeque! Choji's favorite barbeque!" Naruto cried out, Sasuke let the finger go and watched his blonde attend to his overstretched finger.
"Good boy." Sasuke stated and got off the bed.
"You're mean, Teme," Naruto pouted, he moved off the bed as well, still rubbing his fingers. "And you can't blame it on the baby, I know it's too early for that." Naruto gave the Uchiha a look while Sasuke just continued to smirk. Naruto pulled Sasuke into a hug, arms wrapping around the Uchiha's waist.
"No I've always been like this Dobe, but it's too late now though. You're stuck with me, baby and all." Sasuke said, he looked up to Naruto's smiling face and accepted the kiss Naruto leaned down to give. When Naruto broke the kiss he held on to his lover tighter.
"I wouldn't have it any other way, Teme."
