Happy
"Don't die, Sakura!" A voice echoed outside of her consciousness.
Sakura slowly blinked and felt herself being shuffled around and could hear people talking before her world once again went black. Unconscious and without knowledge of what was going on, Sakura let a scene form in her mind. A meadow was nice, maybe with a small lake beside it. As soon as she thought these things, they appeared in her mind. Why not add in a naked Sasuke? Her imagination conjured up the image of Sasuke, and he was well and truly commando. Ah, this was lovely.
Suddenly, a dark cloud formed over her imaginary field, turning the gold grass into grey strands. Sasuke disappeared and Sakura ran to the place he had been standing. A stinging sensation erupted on her right cheek, her hand reached up and felt around the heated skin. The sensation hit again and her head was forced sideways.
'...Am I being slapped?'
She waited a few more seconds and when the invisible slap never came, she rubbed her sore cheek. Sakura held out her arm and inspected the cut she had received while in Danzo's hideaway, blood oozed in a small trickle and the area around it was numb. She glared at it, a heatwave had erupted from this damn cut moments before-
Sakura's head snapped up, 'I've just fainted, and I'm pregnant. I've just fainted, and I'm pregnant!' Sasuke must be going off his head! A slight giggle escaped her but she shook her head, this was a serious matter.
As if remembering, Sakura looked down and verified that yes, she was still pregnant in her dream land. She caressed her hand up and over her bump and smiled, but once again her smile faded. Not because her dreamland had began to rain, but a sore, sort of cramp settled in her stomach. Okay, no need to worry, her baby was fine. Then it hit again as the slap had done and swept began to moist her brow. With laboured breaths she looked around the field, searching for a sign of any life. The third hit of cramp had her doubling over, the rain felt like pin pricks against her skin.
In the distance of her field a mist settled and began closing her in a circle. Sakura dropped to her knees, maybe she was dying. Maybe the cut on her arm had been poisoned and had taken effect.
"Wake up, preggers! There's no damn way we can hold Sasuke any longer!" The mist shouted.
Sakura's lids lowered, of course the last voice she'd hear would be Ino's. Finally Sakura allowed her eyes to close and let the mist cocoon her.
Extremely loud screams of frustration burned Sakura's ears as her eyes fluttered open. Ino was huffing above her.
"What are you staring at, pig?" Sakura snapped.
And then, as if a dam had burst, Ino's eyes watered before drowning Sakura in tears.
"Sweetie, what's wrong?" Sakura asked.
Before Ino could answer she was pushed away by Tenten who glared at her.
"You ever faint again and I will castrate you!" She shouted, although the hands smoothing hair away from Sakura's face betrayed her threat.
Sakura was about to respond with some retort but gasped as the cramp returned. It became stronger, like wave upon wave gathering up strength.
Oh god, she was-
"She's in labour! She's in freaking labour!" Ino hollered, pointing a finger at Sakura.
"Oh, really? I hadn't guessed what with her water breaking." Tsunade jumped in sarcastically.
This was the real deal, she was having her baby.
"Sasuke?" Sakura croaked, "Where's Sasuke?"
Tsunade looked to her left and nodded, "Let him go before we all die."
Sasuke was hovering over her in an instant, a cut marring his eyebrow and a black eye forming.
"Sakura, we'll get you home." He picked her up without hesitation and Sakura saw they were still outside Danzo's lair. Naruto and Shikamaru were both nursing cuts and bruises on there faces and gave pointed glares at Sasuke.
"We have to hurry," Tsunade said, "All of you get home now, I need to sort out some things with Danzo's...associates."
Sasuke had already started running, leaping atop tree branches with that freakish speed of his. Sakura stroked a finger along her mate's jaw and he gazed down at her. She smiled, and was rewarded with his breathtaking smile in return. Not a smirk, a smile.
Mikoto greeted them at the door with a shining grin and a towel in her hand.
"Let's get this baby outta there!"
Sakura grimaced and tightened her arms around Sasuke's neck.
Sometime later in the Uchiha manor...
"Sasuke, how could you do this to me?" Sakura asked weakly, her breath coming out in short pants.
Sasuke's eyes looked alarmed, "Do what?"
"Impregnate me, you bastard!"
Sasuke chuckled, "Did you not wish for this then?"
"Of course I did, but let's not forget one thing," Sakura sucked in a breath, "YOU were the one who got me pregnant, it was you're freakishly fertile sperm who infiltrated my body. It is only logical that labour pains should be shared."
"Do you want me to act as if I'm in pain then?"
"It would make me feel slightly better." Sakura growled at him.
Sakura let out a groan as another wave of pain hit her, she squeezed her eyes closed the same time Sasuke squeezed her hand. Sakura peeked out one eye and stared at him, how could the man look so beautiful and she look...well, her hair was askew, her cheeks were red, sweat covered her forehead and he looked like a freaking God! Damn that man!
"Sakura, I need you to concentrate, dear!" Mikoto shouted over Ino's rant to Tenten about whether Sakura would produce breast milk of blood.
Ew.
"Sasuke! Stop coddling Sakura!" Mikoto slapped Sasuke's hands from stroking Sakura's hair.
"Don't you dare slap him!" Sakura screeched, reaching blindly for Sasuke's hand.
Sasuke covered Sakura's ears and roared loudly at the other women present in the room. Silence fell and only Sakura's deep breathing could be heard.
"O...kay then, everyone take one step back." Ino said quietly, hiding behind Tenten's shoulder.
Mikoto looked at Sakura over Sakura's bent knees, "You're going to have to push, Sakura. And I mean push."
"I'm already pushing!" Sakura hissed.
"Sakura, just a few more and we'll have our baby," Sasuke whispered in her ear, "Just-"
"Damn you to hell with your soothing voice." Sakura cut in, although her eyes watered and her bottom lip trembled.
"Only if you join me." Sasuke said while squeezing her hand like he'd been doing the last two hours.
"And...push!"
Epilogue
"I'm telling you, this-" Sasuke held up the children's slide in the air, "-connects to this." He continued, holding parts of the climbing frame in the other hand.
"And I'm telling you, this-" Neji held up the swing, "-connects to that." He gestured towards the parts of climbing frame Sasuke had in his hand.
"No it doesn't."
"Yes, actually, it does."
"Are you trying to best me, Hyuga?"
"I did that 60 years ago, Uchiha"
"What a-about the instructions?" Hinata offered but was pulled back by Naruto who was shaking his head.
"Stop fussing, here, let me do it." Tenten sighed and lifted herself out of the deck chair, having to push herself up with help of the handles. Neji had a near heart-attack and dropped the parts he was holding to rush over and help her.
"Oh, get off! If Sakura can handle two, then I sure as hell can handle one!" Tenten growled.
Sakura giggled lightly, shifting the sleeping boy in her arms careful to not wake him. She looked down and pressed her cheek lightly onto his head, black hair shined in front of her eyes from the sun. It was truly impossible to think that a year ago, she battled demons and all sorts with this boy in her womb. She'd be damned if he didn't at least learn Karate at the time. A small yawn came from him and she kissed his head.
Sasuke came over then and she handed him his son so she could pour herself another orange juice. Leaning back, she surveyed the sight in front of her. Neji was gathering Tenten in his arms to stop her from setting foot near the unfinished climbing frame while Tenten was shouting profanities at him in such a way the Hyuga back-tracked. If a pregnant woman want to do something, then let her damn well do it. Naruto spun Hinata around off the ground, not unusual since he'd done it the moment they all tumbled out of Danzo's lair.
Sakura knew if she looked at Sasuke coo-ing over their son she'd end up hysterically laughing and crying her heart out at the same time. Then, she looked down. Just a few more weeks and the Uchiha's will welcome not one, but two new members. Inwardly, Sakura congratulated Sasuke's sexy sex cells, but at the same time she shunned them. After her son was born, Sasuke and Sakura used protection while in bed, but one steamy night without protection and she was pregnant...again. Not to mention it happened when visiting the Uchiha compound in Konoha.
Ino was lounging on her seat with a bikini on and sunglasses, she pulled her glasses down to her nose when Shikamaru strolled over to the climbing frame and successfully put parts together. He sensed her watching and turned around to give her a smouldering look.
"Uh...I think I'm going to get more...juice." Ino muttered and scattered inside with Shikamaru hot on her heels.
"We all know what juice she wants." Tenten muttered.
Hinata gasped and blushed while Neji ushered his mate to step away from the 'child friendly' climbing frame. It should be vampire friendly as far as Sakura was concerned.
Her son grabbed at Sasuke's hair, his own already sticking up at the back.
'Must be hereditary.' Sakura thought with a smirk, then she froze. What if she had a girl?
"Sakura, what's wrong?" Sakura asked, a frown on his brow.
"If we have a girl...her hair might be...like yours." Sakura said hesitantly.
The frown disappeared and was replaced with surprise, "What's wrong with my hair?"
Was that distress in his voice?
"Sakura, what is wrong with my hair? You said you loved everything about me, what about my hair?"
"It looks like an ass." Neji cut in.
Tenten slapped Hyuga on the back of the head, "Don't swear in front of my nephew!"
Sakura laughed. She kept laughing all through Sasuke patting his hair to see if it was out of place, she laughed through Neji's attempts at pulling a wrench from Tenten's vice-like grip. She laughed at Naruto and Hinata rubbing noses with each other and Ino and Shikamaru's raunchy doings.
Her gaze settled on her son and green emeralds stared back at her. His small mouth opened, "Ma...ma."
