Chapter 13: Remember To Breathe
Haru is doing well in the academy. She's the top in her class, as if I'd expect anything different from my daughter. Naruto is due any day. The leaves have changed for the colours of autumn and October is coming to an end. I am sitting in the windowsill when I hear Naruto screaming from in the kitchen. I don't think I have ever moved quicker in my life. I am by his side before I have a chance to blink. There is a puddle beneath him and his eyes are panicked.
“It's time.” is all he manages to say to me as I reach for the phone and dial Sakura's number. She answers after only one ring. I speak quickly.
“Sakura, I need you to go and pick up Haru and bring her to the hospital. It's time.” I ramble out swiftly before hanging up. I don't even give her a chance to reply or say goodbye before I hang up the phone and pick Naruto up. I manage to teleport us immediately to the hospital. Tsunade is already waiting when we arrive.
“Ahh! Something is happening. It hurts. FUCK!” Naruto exclaims as his body is wracked with pain. His hand crushes mine and I hide a wince.
“It's called a contraction Naruto, now undress and lay down on that bed there.” Tsunade orders as she points to the bed closest to us. I push Naruto gently towards it and help him peel his clothing off. He is flushed and sweat clings to his skin as he breathes through another contraction. He grits his teeth.
I stand helplessly watching as Tsunade washes her hands and moves to stand between Naruto's spread legs. He doesn't even have the capacity to be embarrassed as Tsunade examines him, her eyes on the most intimate parts of his body. Her hands are moving now and I can't see what exactly she's doing. Naruto pants and groans as his contractions come in quick succession, only minutes apart now. Tsunade looks up at me as Naruto's fingers wrap tightly around my hand, squeezing painfully hard, my own fingers turning white with the pressure of it.
“He's ready,” She states as her eyes meet mine, “Naruto, I need you to push on the count of three.” She finishes and Naruto nods incoherently. She counts to three and he groans loudly as he pushes, Tsunade's hands glowing with chakra as she assists the birth of our baby girl.
I can feel sweat sliding between my shoulderblades as I hold Naruto's hand. He pushes over and over again.
“Fuck! Sas-ke, I hate you!, this is all your fault!” He exclaims as his reddened face contorts in pain again. His hair lays matted to his forehead with sweat and I brush it back with my unoccupied hand.
“You're doing great baby, just a little more.” I coax as Tsunade works and Naruto pushes. I wait.
Finally, Naruto falls back with a relieved sigh and Tsunade moves back, a small bloodied bundle in her arms. I stand completely still as I wait for the fateful wail of an infant. My eyes close as I pray for the noise. I've never wanted a noise more.
A keening cry fills the room right before I am handed the now blanket-swaddled baby girl. She cries, proving that she has her 'mother's' lungs. I smile and rock her quietly. Tsunade cleans up Naruto and leaves silently. I sit with my lover, our pale-blond newborn in his arms. He smiles tiredly at her before he looks to me.
“I think you were right after all, she looks like an Aki, doesn't she?” He asks. I just smile at him. We haven't even gotten a chance to see what color our darling baby girl's eyes are, since she has had them screwed shut the whole time she has been crying.
Her eyes open and Naruto sees them first. He gasps and I look to see what has caught his attention. I am speechless as my eyes meet the vibrant violet of our new daughter's, but the colour is not the most intriguing part of them, but the black teardrops of the Sharingan in the irises of her eyes. She has stopped crying to stare back at me.
Suddenly the door bursts open and our other daughter comes flying into the room. She bounces next to the bed excitedly. I reach to pick her up, placing my finger on my lips to silence her. Her viridian eyes flash as she settles them upon her new baby sister.
“What's her name Tou-san?” She whispers, glancing at me and then back to the newborn. Naruto smiles, his eyes half-closed in his exhaustion.
“Aki.” I reply, my voice hardly more than a breath. She smiles in awe as she reaches to touch her sister's face.
“Hello Aki, I've been waiting to meet you for so long. I'm your big sister, Haru.” She says as her small fingertips ghost softly across Aki's cheek. Aki's unusual eyes follow her sister's movements diligently. We stay like this, the four of us, a family.
Hours later, we finally get through the door of our home. The nursery is in Itachi's old room. We've changed it all, the colour is now violet and we made the window larger, sheer-flowered curtains hanging over it. It's not his anymore. It's hers.
Naruto was healed with the aid of the medical ninja at the hospital and of course by the demon housed within him. I am not surprised that we are home already. It is late though and Haru is asleep in my arms as Naruto keeps baby Aki close to his chest as she slumbers as well.
I tuck Haru into her bed before making my way to Naruto and I's room. I am more tired than I care to admit and I want nothing more than to crawl into bed with my lover and our newborn and sleep too. Naruto is already in bed, Aki curled in the middle of the futon. I smile and slide into the bed next to him and Aki.
I am just beginning to doze when I hear the creak of our bedroom door. Haru steps into the room and nibbles her lip. Aki whines and I pick her up, letting her rest on my chest, my heartbeat lulling her back to sleep. Haru moves to leave. She looks as though she might cry and I am about to speak when Naruto cuts me off.
“Haru-chan, where are you going?” he calls quietly. Haru turns, a pout on her lips.
“Aki has already taken my spot.” She says, her voice barely more than a dejected whisper. I smile slightly. She's so adorable.
“Nonsense. There's always room for you. Come here.” Naruto coaxes. Haru smiles just the tiniest bit and meanders closer. Naruto pulls her onto the bed, lifting the blankets so she can snuggle down between us. Soon enough we are all asleep. It has been a long day for all of us.
It is bound to be a long night as well.
