The Sun & The Moon

by KyuubiLover100

Naruto Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuuga bumped into at freshmen orientation, and for the last three years, neither of them had the confidence to speak to one another. But it's finals, they're both sleep deprived, he's had too much caffeine, she's a nervous wreck, and they're dying to have an actual conversation beyond, "Hi..." #NHFD/2018

4. Chapter 4

Author's Note: Sorry! This chapter ended up being longer than I had anticipated! Enjoy!

Last Time:

"Thank you," Hinata said with an adorable yawn.

"For what?" Naruto asked as he kissed her forehead.

"For loving me," Hinata answered.

Naruto smiled. "I should be the one thanking you."

Hinata looked up at him and smiled. "I love you."

"I love you too," Naruto said before kissing her.

The Sun & The Moon: Chapter 4 – "The Next Step"

Naruto let out a heavy sigh as he tightened his tie before taking a seat beside Hinata on their bed. He placed his hand on hers and put on a small smile when she rested her head on his shoulder. "Are you sure you don't want me to stay home with you today?"

Hinata nodded. "Yeah, you should go to work. I'm sure I just ate something bad the other day or something. I think if I rest for another day then it'll work itself out of my system."

"If you say so." Naruto kissed her forehead and watched as Hinata rested her chin on his shoulder now so that she could see him. "If you feel worse later, call me and let me know, okay? I'll come home and take you to the doctor."

"All right," Hinata agreed before planting a gentle kiss on his cheek. "You better get going or you'll get stuck in traffic."

Naruto looked down at his watch and sucked his teeth. He stood up and grabbed his briefcase before kissing Hinata quickly on the lips. He pressed his forehead against hers and brushed his thumb against her cheek. "I'll come by and see you during my lunch break, okay?"

"I'll be fine," Hinata whined as she patted her husband's chest. "Now go to work. I love you."

"I love you more," Naruto said as he picked up his cellphone and headed towards their bedroom door.

"I love you most," Hinata called as Naruto headed out the door. She let out a heavy sigh and rubbed her stomach. She ripped open another Alka-Seltzer packet and dropped the tablet into the glass of water that sat on her nightstand. As she watched her water fizz, she felt her head begin to throb while her stomach started turning backflips again.

She ran into the bathroom and managed to get the toilet seat up in time for her to vomit straight into the bowl. Last night she wasn't so lucky and Naruto was left cleaning their bathroom at about four that morning. She coughed and wiped her mouth as she used a shaky hand to close the seat before flushing.

Hinata got up and rinsed her mouth out for what felt like the one-hundredth time that week, and it probably was the one-hundredth time too. She had spat out a cap full of mouthwash into the sink when she heard her phone ring.

She coughed and sniffled on her way back to their bedroom and checked the display before answering. "Hanabi?"

"I'm coming over," Hanabi declared.

"What? Why?" Hinata took a seat on the edge of their bed and took a sip of her Alka-Seltzer water. "Don't you have class today?"

"I'm skipping," Hanabi answered. "Naruto-nii just called me and told me that you were sick all weekend. He wants me to take you to the doctor."

Hinata sighed and rubbed her temple. "Honestly, that Naruto-kun. I told him I'd be fine. And he only said I had to go if I got any worse."

"Well Naruto-nii sounded worried on the phone so I couldn't exactly say no. Plus, you sound pretty terrible anyway, so I'm going to be in front of your building in about fifteen more minutes - traffic permitting - and I am taking you to your doctor," Hanabi told her.

Hinata rubbed her stomach again. "Fine. I'll be out front."

"Perfect! I'll see you soon." The line clicked dead.

Hinata sighed again before taking another sip of water. She took a few aspirins before getting up and getting dressed.

And as Hanabi predicted, she was in front of Hinata and Naruto's apartment building in fifteen minutes. Hinata climbed into the driver's seat and rested her head back against the headrest. Hanabi eyed her elder sister for a moment before pulling away from the curb.

"You look pale," Hanabi commented. "Do you think it's food poisoning?"

"Maybe?" Hinata muttered.

Meanwhile, at The Sannin Group Headquarters, Naruto sat in his office with his eyes fixated on a photo of him and Hinata on their honeymoon. They had decided to take a road trip all over the continent, and while they were in the mountains in northeastern Fire Country, they had hiked to a hidden oasis. The photo was of the two of them sitting back to back in front of the waterfall, the two of them exhausted from the three-mile uphill hike in the middle of summer.

"Naruto!"

Naruto snapped out of his daze and looked up to see his assistant, Sara, standing at his desk. "Yes?"

"Is everything okay?" she questioned, clearly concerned. "You seem out of it."

"I'm fine," Naruto assured. "I'm just a little worried about Hinata."

"Is something wrong with Mrs. Uzumaki?" Sara asked with a slight tilt of her head.

Naruto tapped his pen against his desk. "I'm not sure. She was sick all weekend. We think it's food poisoning, but I called her sister and asked her to take her to the doctor to verify. They should be headed there now, so I guess I'm just a little anxious to find out what the doctor says."

"I'm sure it's nothing," Sara said with a smile. "In the meantime though, you have plenty of work of your own to do while you're here. Did you want to review today's schedule together or would you like it sent to you?"

"Can you send it to me, please?" Naruto requested and Sara nodded. "Thank you, Sara." He tapped a space on his desk and watched as a screen came up. A moment later, his schedule came up and he let out a heavy sigh at the sight of it. "Another day full of meetings?"

"Yes sir," Sara confirmed. "Oh, and congratulations on closing that deal on the property in Kiri. When I got here, I had heard that the Chairman and Vice Chairman had been trying to get a hotel built there for years before you came on board."

"It wasn't easy but thank you," Naruto said. "Is there anything else?"

Sara looked down at her tablet. She swiped her finger against the display a few times before smiling and looking at him. "That's all. Your first meeting is in thirty minutes with the men from Uchiha Incorporated to discuss the UI and AI for the new hotel."

"Thank you," Naruto said. "You're dismissed."

Sara bowed towards Naruto before walking out.

Naruto rubbed his face before patting his cheeks. "All right, focus Naruto." He picked up his coffee canister and took a sip before sliding his chair over to his keyboard. He'd only typed a few words before he heard his phone ring. He pulled it out of his desk and opened the text message from Hanabi. It was just a picture of her and Hinata sitting in the waiting room of the doctor's office.

He texted back, "Let me know what the doctor says. Please, and thank you." He waited and received a thumbs up emoji from Hanabi. He rolled his eyes and put his phone back in his desk drawer before continuing to work.

"Hyuuga Hinata," a nurse called.

"Here," Hinata answered as she got up. Hinata handed her purse off to Hanabi before following the nurse into the back. As they walked by the nurse's station, she saw Sakura leaning against the counter as she shifted through some paperwork.

Sakura looked up as they passed. "Oh, Hinata? Did you have an appointment scheduled today?"

Hinata shook her head. "No, I'm sorry. Naruto-kun made me come since I've been sick for a while and was miserable all weekend."

"Is that so? I'll be in shortly then," Sakura assured her before signing a few pieces of paper and handing it off to the nurse. She looked at her watch. "Luckily my schedule isn't packed today, so I shouldn't be too long. Get comfortable, okay?"

Hinata nodded before Sakura headed off into the next room. Hinata went through getting her blood pressure measured, weight checked, and temperature checked. Once that was done, Hinata was in sitting in an exam room and lying on the exam table.

She wore one of Naruto's hoodies so she seemed to wrap herself up in it, the scent providing some comfort despite how nauseous she was feeling. Hanabi sat on the edge of the exam table and gently rubbed Hinata's back.

"Thank you," she muttered.

Hanabi smiled. "You're welcome. Mother used to do this for us all the time as kids and it seemed to work just fine then. I figured it'd work as adults too."

Hinata nodded in agreement. "It's nice."

"So, did I tell you that Konohamaru-kun asked me to move in with him?" Hanabi questioned.

"He did?" Hinata looked at her sister. "What did you say?"

"I said yes, obviously," Hanabi answered. "I haven't told Mother or Father yet though and knowing Father he isn't going to be all that thrilled about it. I told Uncle Hiashi though, and he thinks it's a good idea. He said that living away from the complex would be a good experience for me before I have to take up the helm as Clan Head."

"Well, you still have a while before that even happens," Hinata assured her. "And I'll admit that living away from home is nice. But knowing Father, he's definitely not going to be happy about it. Mother will be though."

Hanabi giggled. "That's because Mother is the odd one in the family who's all for going against tradition. You have no idea how happy she was when she found out you were dating Naruto-nii. The last thing she wanted for you was to end up in an arranged marriage."

"The Elders though otherwise though," Hinata sighed at the memory of the chaos Naruto and Hinata had to go through to get married in the first place. "That was a living nightmare."

Hanabi nodded in agreement. "It was. I don't even think Konoha University stressed you out that much."

"It didn't," Hinata whined and Hanabi laughed. "But I'm glad you and Konohamaru-san are still together; the two of you make an adorable couple."

"Cuter than you and Naruto-nii?" Hanabi asked.

"No," Hinata answered and giggled when Hanabi pouted before laying on her.

"Onee-chan," Hanabi muttered.

"Hm?"

"I just remembered that your five-year anniversary is coming up." Hanabi sat up and looked at her sister. "Congratulations."

Hinata smiled. "Thank you."

There was a gentle knock on the door before Sakura entered. She greeted them with a smile. "Hi again."

"Hi Sakura-nee," Hanabi greeted.

"How are you, Hanabi?" Sakura asked as she sat down in her chair and placed her tablet on her thighs.

"I'm good," Hanabi answered before looking at Hinata. "I can't say the same for Onee-chan though."

Sakura looked at Hinata and put on a sympathetic smile. "You look miserable."

"I am miserable," Hinata confirmed.

"Well, tell me what the problem is and we can start to figure out what's going on with you," Sakura set before turning on the display on her tablet and removing a stylus from her breast pocket.

Hinata sighed and sat up. She brought her legs around so they hung off the edge of the exam table and she held her stomach. "Well, for about two or three weeks, I've just felt exhausted. I mean, I maintain a pretty regular sleep schedule most nights out of the week."

Hanabi nudged Hinata who rolled her eyes. Hanabi giggled.

"I started getting regular headaches too," Hinata continued. "I feel nauseous all of the time and I'm throwing up what feels like twenty times a day. Food that I usually like makes my stomach churn just thinking about it and I'm sensitive to most smells all of a sudden. And now I'm craving food I usually didn't like and I feel like I'm starving even though I'm eating the same amount I always eat."

Sakura wrote down everything Hinata said. When she finished writing out the last piece, she looked up at her. "When was your last period?"

Hinata thought for a moment. And then she thought for a little longer. She grabbed her purse and pulled out her cellphone. She pulled up the period tracker on her phone. "Two months ago? That can't be right."

"Are you using any form of birth control?" Sakura asked.

"I have the IUD insert but it's supposed to last...," Hinata trailed off.

"Five years," Sakura finished Hinata's statement. She looked down at her tablet. "Yup, you were supposed to get it replaced about three months ago."

Hanabi blinked a few times as she tried to process what wasn't being said. "Sakura-nee, do you think...?"

"It's possible," Sakura answered. "Hinata, I'm going to call your gynecologist and get you an appointment scheduled for this afternoon. She'll be able to remove the IUD for you."

Hinata nodded.

"In the meantime, we can run a pregnancy test here and get confirmation on whether or not you're pregnant in just a few minutes," Sakura explained. "Or, you can wait until you get to your gynecologist and take a pregnancy test there, it's your choice."

"Um," Hinata gripped her phone, "I think I'll wait until I get to my gynecologist. Do you have any recommendations for nausea though?"

"Natural remedies would be ginger and peppermint," Sakura answered. "There's a shop not too far from here that sells ginger capsules if you wanted to grab those on your way to your next appointment."

"Yeah, that'd be good. Can you text me the location?" Hinata requested.

"Of course." Sakura pulled out her phone and sent the location to Hinata. "I'll be right back. Sit tight." She left.

Hanabi hopped off the exam table and stood in front of your sister. "You're freaking out."

"I'm not freaking out," Hinata argued.

"Yes, you are," Hanabi countered. "Whenever you get really quiet, you're panicking. Breathe, Onee-chan. Breathe."

Hinata ran her fingers through her hair. "We live in a one bedroom loft," she muttered. "There's no room for a baby there."

"Onee-chan," Hanabi called as she held her sister's face in her hands. "Breathe already."

Hinata took a deep breath before exhaling. She did this for a few more times before tears filled her eyes.

Hanabi began to panic now. "Ah, Onee-chan, what's wrong? I can't tell if those are happy tears or sad tears. Please, don't care. You know I'm terrible at helping people when they start to cry."

"I'm sorry," Hinata apologized as she wiped her cheeks. "I'm fine."

Hinata's phone rang. She looked at the display and saw a picture of Naruto wearing his traditional grin. She sniffled and cleared her throat before answering. "Hi, Naruto-kun."

"Hey," Naruto responded. "Have you seen Sakura yet?"

"Yeah. She wants to do a blood test and do an ultrasound to make sure it's nothing serious," Hinata lied. "I'll be here a while so you don't have to come check on me during your lunch break."

"Are you sure? I don't mind coming to the doctor's office and sitting with you while you wait for the results," Naruto assured her. "I just want to make sure you're okay."

"I'm fine," Hinata answered. "She says it's most likely food poisoning, but she wants to run some test to make sure. I'll see you when you get off work."

"If you say so." Naruto sighed. "I just wanted to check on you. I'm about to head into a meeting so text me with updates when you can. I love you."

"I love you more," Hinata said.

"I love you most," Naruto said before hanging up.

"Why didn't you tell him you might be pregnant?" Hanabi whined.

"Because I don't need him freaking out about this while he's at work," Hinata answered. "He's been working late a lot these last few weeks because they finally closed the deal on that property in Kiri City. I'm sure he has a lot of meetings to go to so he should focus on what's definitely happening."

"This is definitely happening too," Hanabi argued.

"I won't know for sure until I take a pregnancy test," Hinata reminded her. "In the meantime, you don't say a word to anyone. Especially to Konohamaru-san because you and I both know that he's going to be the first one to call Naruto-kun."

Hanabi puffed her cheeks and folded her arms across her chest. "I can't help it if Konohamaru-kun considers Naruto-nii to be his brother. They talk about everything."

"I know they do which is why I need you to not say anything," Hinata said.

"Fine," Hanabi groaned.

There was another gentle knock and Sakura entered again. "So I got you an appointment scheduled for one o' clock. If you leave now you should be able to go to that store I told you about and make it to your appointment with time to spare."

"All right, thank you," Hinata said.

At The Sannin Group, Naruto ended up sitting in his meeting with Uchiha Incorporated for an hour longer than initially planned. They'd been bouncing ideas off of one another for the AI and UI experience for the new hotel before Sara came in and informed Naruto of his meeting with the interior designers. All in all, each of his meetings ended up running into the breaks he had scheduled for each one in between.

Sara was used to this though so she was ready with his materials for each meeting as he hurried to the next meeting in various parts of the building. It wasn't until about five that Naruto finally got a chance to sit back down at his desk.

"Good work today, Fuku-shacho," Sara complimented as she smiled at him.

Naruto managed a tired smile. He pulled his phone from his jacket pocket and checked his text message. Hinata had sent a few updates throughout the day. The last one verified that Hinata had food poisoning. He let out a sigh of relief and rest his head on his desk.

"Fuku-shacho?" Sara gave her boss a curious look.

"It's food poisoning," Naruto answered. "Hinata just has food poisoning."

"I guess that's a relief," Sara noted. "I'm sure she'll be back to normal in a few days."

Naruto nodded in agreement. "You're right. Was there anything else scheduled for today?"

"No sir," Sara answered. "You are done for the day."

"Thank goodness." Naruto sighed and sat up. He began to shut down his computer and monitors. "I'll be heading home then."

"Have a good night Fuku-shacho," Sara said before heading out of his office.

Naruto sorted through the paperwork he needed to look through and placed them in his briefcase. He usually would've stayed late, but with Hinata being sick, he just wanted to get home and see her. He heard his stomach growl and he groaned.

"I guess I'll pick up Ichiraku on the way home, "Naruto muttered as he shut the latches on his briefcase and picked up his laptop case and backpack. He shut down his desk and snapped his fingers, the lights in his office shutting down. He stepped out of his office and saw Sara typing away at her computer. "Have a good night, Sara."

"You too," Sara responded.

Naruto hurried down to the courtyard that sat between The Sannin Group and Uchiha Incorporated. It was filled with various restaurants that were popular with employees of both companies and locals who knew that they there. He was halfway across the courtyard when he saw Sasuke standing nearby a favorite food truck and coincidentally Sasuke's favorite place.

"Sasuke," Naruto called as he made his way over.

Sasuke looked up from his phone and saw Naruto. "Oh, Naruto. How's it going?"

"Pretty good," Naruto answered. "Headed home?"

"Not yet, sadly." Sasuke sighed before he noticed Naruto's bags. "You're heading home already?"

"Yeah," Naruto confirmed. "Hinata's been sick and I just want to go ahead and get home. Sakura didn't tell you that Hinata went by to see her today?"

Sasuke shook his head. "I guess she's been busy."

"Order up, Mr. Uchiha," the chef from the food truck called as he put a takeout container on the counter.

"Thank you," Sasuke said as he dropped a tip in the jar and took his contained. He opened it and made sure his order was right before closing. "Well, I gotta get back to work if I wanna make it home before midnight. Let's grab drinks Friday night after work?"

"Sounds good." Naruto waved as Sasuke made his way back towards Uchiha Incorporated. By the time Naruto made it to the counter of Ichiraku Ramen, the owner Ayame already had his order ready.

"I saw you were coming out of the building," Ayame answered his unasked question. "Bring Hinata-chan with you next time, will you? I miss her."

"And she misses you too," Naruto said as he pulled out his wallet and handed cash to Ayame. "I'll bring her when she's over her food poisoning."

"Ew," Ayame commented as she handed Naruto back his change which he dropped straight into the tip jar. "You didn't cook for her again, did you?"

"Hey," Naruto whined and Ayame giggled. "She probably got it from some bad sushi or something. Anyway, thanks Ayame-nee. I'll see you soon."

"See you soon," Ayame called as Naruto headed out.

Naruto's drive home was longer than usual, but that was just because of the traffic. That and he was anxious to see Hinata so that made the drive all the more unbearable. After an hour, he finally made it to his building's parking garage.

When he entered his apartment, he could hear the TV playing.

"Naruto-kun?" Hinata called.

"I'm home," Naruto answered as he put his bags down and sat in the foyer. He let out a sigh of relief before taking off his shoes. He was about to get back up before he felt Hinata wrap her arms around him. "Hinata?"

"Welcome home." She rubbed her face in his back.

Naruto chuckled. "Thank you. I see you're feeling better?" Naruto felt her nod against his back. He also felt her squeeze him a little tighter in her arms. "Hinata?"

"I love you," she said.

Naruto reached around and rubbed Hinata's head. "I love you more."

"I love you most," she chirped as she rested her chin on his shoulder and smiled at him.

Naruto smiled as well. "What is it?"

Hinata stood up. She picked up Naruto's briefcase and walked into the apartment. With a look of confusion, Naruto picked up his backpack and laptop case and followed her. He found her in their bedroom but she was entering the bathroom before he could put the rest of his stuff down.

"Hinata?" Naruto called as he removed his blazer and loosened his tie. He didn't get a response and he didn't hear anything. He untucked his shirt and headed over to the bathroom door. He knocked. "Hinata, what is it? Are you feeling sick? Where's the medicine Sakura gave you?"

The door opened and Naruto saw Hinata was holding a hand behind her back. She was still smiling and Naruto couldn't help but smile too. He laughed. "What is it?"

Hinata revealed her hand and held out a pregnancy test. "Here."

Naruto looked at it with a bit of confusion before looking back at her. "What's this for?"

"Read it," Hinata urged.

Naruto took the rest and looked at the little display window: there was a plus sign. Naruto blinked a few times before looking at Hinata. "Are you serious?"

Hinata nodded, tears beginning to fill her eyes.

"You're serious," Naruto said. He immediately pressed his lips to hers, the two of them laughing and crying. He lifted her into his arms and spun her around before putting her down. He looked at the test again and grinned at the plus sign. "You're pregnant."

"I'm pregnant," Hinata confirmed.

"I love you." Naruto took Hinata's face in her hands. "I love you so much. So, so much." He knelt in front of her and began kissing her stomach. "And I love you too."

Hinata giggled. "Naruto-kun."

"How long have you been pregnant?" Naruto asked as he wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his ear against her stomach.

Hinata ran her fingers through his hair. "Kurenai-sensei says I'm about seven weeks pregnant."

"Ah, so you lied to me today," Naruto whined as he looked up at her and pouted. "Hinata, that's cruel."

"Well I didn't want to tell you over a text message," Hinata argued as Naruto stood up. "Plus, I know you've been busy with this new project you're working on and I didn't want you neglecting your work because of me."

"Fuck work," Naruto declared before quickly covering his mouth. He put his hand over Hinata's stomach. "Sorry," he apologized to it. "Fuck work," he whispered and Hinata giggled. "This is something I can skip work for. You're having our baby, Hinata."

"You're not upset?" Hinata asked. "It's all my fault. I forgot to reschedule my appointment to get my IUD replaced."

"Of course I'm not upset," Naruto assured her. "I'm through the roof right now, Hinata. I was thinking it was about time we start trying for a baby anyway and here we are. And now that we're here, I can finally show you something."

Hinata wore the confused look now. "Show me what?"

"Let me get changed first," Naruto said before hurrying into their closet.

Naruto came out of the closet in two minutes flat in jeans, a graphic t-shirt with Kurama the Nine-Tailed Fox Deity, and a hoodie. He grabbed Hinata's purse and handed it off to her before ushering her out of the apartment.

Hinata tried asking questions as to where they were going but Naruto refused to give her a definite answer. They drove for about forty-five minutes which placed them outside of Downtown Konoha and in the suburban areas of the city.

"What're we doing here?" Hinata asked as they entered a town called Kannabi Village. It was considered a miniature version of Downtown Konoha because of its fashionable shopping district that could rival Downtown Konoha's Senju Mall. It was large enough that there was plenty to do and see if you were invested in discovering everything the city had to offer, but small enough that it didn't have the congestion of Downtown Konoha.

Naruto drove by the shopping district and into the residential district. The residential district consisted of large family homes. Each house was different from the next and provided a comforting variety you didn't get Downtown.

They took a few turns before they stopped in front of a house with a "For Sale" sign on the front lawn. "Sold" was slapped over the top of it. Naruto put the car in park and turned off the engine.

He got out of the car and came around to Hinata's side to open her door for her. He helped her out and shut the door before standing in front of the house with her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder. "What do you think?"

Hinata eyed the house. From what she could see, it was two stories with a porch and large front yard. There was room for a garden in the front beneath a large window. There was a chimney so that meant a fireplace and there was a two door garage. She sighed. "It's...beautiful."

Naruto let out a sigh of relief. "Good."

"Good?" Hinata repeated before looking at him. That's when she saw him reach into his pocket and pull out a set of keys. It took a second but it clicked. "Wait...did you...?"

"Welcome to your new home Mrs. Uzumaki," Naruto said as he took her hand and dropped the keys into her palm. "We've been in love with this neighborhood since we first came out here shortly after we started dating, and we both agreed this would be where we would raise our kids after we got married. One night after dinner, you and I decided to take a walk through this neighborhood and pick out our house and you picked this one."

Hinata teared up. "Naruto-kun."

"I bought it a little while after you picked it out and had them do a little bit of updating and remodeling the last couple of months," Naruto informed her. "They just finished last weekend and I was going to show you it on our anniversary in a couple of weeks but I feel like now is as good a time as any."

Hinata started crying. Naruto chuckled as he hugged her and let her cry on his shoulder. He rubbed her back and affectionately kissed her forehead. "Are you crying because you're happy or because you're angry?"

"Happy," Hinata answered as she hugged him.

"Good," Naruto said as he wiped away her tears. "I haven't gotten it furnished yet since I figured you would want to do that."

Hinata nodded and Naruto chuckled again.

"Come on," Naruto offered his hand to her, "let me show you the interior."

Hinata took his hand and let him lead her up the front steps. She got to do the honors of unlocking the door and once they were inside, he flicked on the porch light and the foyer light.

Immediately, Hinata could see the staircase leading up to the second floor and see at least three doors along the hallway to the left of the stairs. They slipped off their shoes and Hinata entered her home.

Naruto gave her a full tour. The first door in the hallway led to a large living room and a large kitchen that was separated by a half-wall. There was plenty of counter space with a small kitchen island in the middle that held a sink. Through a sliding door was a large dining room that would have plenty of space for their family and friends to come and have dinner with them.

There was a half bathroom across the hall and the door next to it led down into a basement. The basement had a bathroom of its own along with a wine cellar and an extra bedroom. There was another ample living room space there as well.

Upstairs, there were four bedrooms. Naruto took her immediately into the master bedroom that had a walk-in closet larger than the one they had now and then showed her the bathroom. He informed her that the floors were heated and that he had them upgrade the bathroom to have a larger tub and large shower. The tub had a built-in jacuzzi system while the shower was state of the art. There was a long mirror that stretched from the edge of the door to the corner and two sinks.

At the end of the hall, there was office space. Naruto opened the window and from there, Hinata could see Downtown Konoha in the distance, the light coming from it illuminating the air around it.

"So?" Naruto put his hands in his pockets and rocked on his heels. "What do you think?"

Hinata looked at him. She walked over to him and pulled him down into a kiss. It was sweet, but when Hinata grabbed his shirt, he moved his hands to her waist. Their kiss intensified and they stayed like that for a while before Hinata broke the kiss.

"I love it," she told him.

Naruto smiled. "I'm glad."

"Thank you," Hinata said as she placed her hand on his cheek.

"Anything for you," Naruto said as he put his hand on hers and smiled at her. "You know," Naruto wrapped his arms around her waist, "we could test out that shower and maybe even double check to make sure that heated floor works properly dattebayo."

"We could," Hinata chimed. "Maybe we could even check the tub too? You know, to make sure that's working fine too."

"I like the way you think Mrs. Uzumaki," Naruto complimented as he lifted her into his arms.

Hinata giggled.

The next morning, Naruto and Hinata agreed to hold off on announcing the pregnancy until the start of the second trimester. Naruto was confident he'd be able to keep the secret, but when he realized how long he'd have to stay silent, he agonized over it. Luckily, he managed to keep quiet until the very second Hinata hit her second trimester. He posted a picture of him and Hinata wearing an apron he'd bought on the way home that read, "bun in the oven."

They held a baby shower and house-warming party at the same time when Hinata entered her third trimester. They had decided to do a gender reveal so when they went to the doctor for an ultrasound they had Kurenai write the gender down on a piece of paper and fold it. From there, they gave the piece of paper to the baker who dyed the interior of the cake accordingly.

"Cut the cake already," Menma shouted as he continued to record Naruto and Hinata who were both close to becoming nervous wrecks as they stood over their cake.

Naruto had the knife in his hand while Hinata gripped his forearm. Naruto and Hinata shared a look before he sliced a corner piece off of their "Congratulations, you're having a..." cake. He and Hinata shut their eyes as he pushed the piece so that it fell on his side and they heard a mixture of cheering and groans.

They both peaked and it was blue.

"Yes!" Naruto cheered while Hinata laughed. Minato and Jiraiya both gave Naruto proud pats on his back while Kushina hugged Hinata.

"What's his name gonna be?" Menma questioned.

Hinata and Naruto looked at one another before Naruto answered. "Boruto."

"Huh?" Naruko put her hands on her hips. "What kind of name is Boruto? Are you trying to play off your name?"

"Sort of," Naruto answered.

"We're naming him after Neji," Hinata answered and everyone looked at Neji.

"Me?" Neji asked.

Naruto nodded and smiled as Hinata held his hand. "You were our biggest advocate to the Hyuuga Elders when Hinata and I got engaged. If it wasn't for you, I don't think Hinata and I would be able to be where we are right now so we wanted to honor you by naming our son after you."

Neji smiled. He walked over to the two of them and hugged them.

With the gender revealed, Kushina and Hiyori went full force when it came to decorating the nursery with Hinata. They were able to hire Sai to do a unique mural in the room for them and once that was done, Naruto and Minato put together the crib.

Finally, Spring came around and so did their son. It was two in the morning when Hinata shook Naruto awake. In his sleepy daze, he struggled to process what was happening until he felt the wetness of the sheets. That wetness was enough to wake Naruto up and send him into full panic mode as he scrambled to get everything for the hospital.

And when they were in the hospital and the delivery room, Naruto held Hinata's hand and coached her through. Hinata had a death grip on Naruto's hand and he was sure she had broken his hand a while ago.

"You're doing great," Naruto encouraged her as he kissed her head. "Just a little more and you'll be done."

"All right, Hinata," Kurenai called, "I'm going to need you to do your best push, okay? One strong, good push."

Hinata nodded. She was drenched in sweat and exhausted yet determined to push through the pain. "O-Okay. Okay."

"All right, on three," Kurenai said. "One...two...three!"

Naruto's hand was definitely broken. He bit his lip as Hinata cried out as she pushed. That's when they heard crying.

"Congratulations," Kurenai smiled at them, "you have a healthy baby boy."

Naruto teared up. He rested his forehead on Hinata's head. "You did it."

Once the umbilical cord was cut and their son was cleaned up, Kurenai handed him off to Hinata. He had a head full of blond hair and two whisker marks on either cheek and a set of blue eyes.

"Hi," Hinata cooed as she offered her finger to him.

"Welcome to the world, Boruto," Naruto cooed as he smiled at his son with tears streaming down his face.
