“When do you think they'll be back?” a now twenty-one year old Sakura asked as she turned towards her husband. Sakura watched with concealed amusement as Kakashi glanced up from his usual present orange adult novel and shrugged nonchalantly.
“Soon...” Was Kakashi's toneless reply as he returned his obsidian eye to his smut filled book.
“I swear Kakashi, I don't see why you need those books when I'm here to fulfill your every desire...” Sakura teased as she seductively ran her hand through Kakashi's unruly silver hair.
Kakashi's eye widened momentarily. They had been married for about three years and she was still able to surprise him. It amazed him to no end the amusing and often seductive things she could throw at him. But he had come to love this side of her, ending with him throwing out a witty remark to her ever changing moods. “Is that so?” Kakashi asked thoughtfully as he lowered his book and turned his face to look up at Sakura with a hooded eye.
“Why wouldn't it be? I'm your wife, or have you forgotten?” Sakura asked playfully as she moved aside Kakashi's hand from his lap. Taking the vacated spot Sakura ground her hips against Kakashi's thighs, effectively causing him to blush. Sakura still couldn't get over the fact that Kakashi was such a handsome man under the usually present mask he wore. But now that they were married Sakura had insisted that Kakashi not wear the mask when they were together. It took some persuading, but she finally triumphed in the end.
“I've indefinitely polluted your mind, haven't I?” Kakashi asked with a smirk as he dropped his book to the floor and circled Sakura's narrow waist with his calloused hands.
“It's about time you took some blame for your mistakes...Though I'm so glad you succeeded in polluting me...otherwise I wouldn't know how to do this...” Sakura turned until she was straddling Kakashi upon the bed, a lustful gaze pinned to her face. Pushing against his chest until he toppled backward Sakura leaned forward and placed her lips on his. A shiver traveled up her spine as their tongues battled for dominance, Kakashi coming out the victor in the end; as he always did.
“I've taught you well then” Kakashi chuckled as Sakura broke the kiss before sitting back on his stomach.
“Yes sensei” Sakura breathed as she stretched out her legs until she was parallel to Kakashi's hard body.
“You know I love when you say that...” Kakashi growled as he flipped Sakura over, her delicate form underneath him. Nipping gently along her jawline Kakashi continued to ravish the beauty beneath him.
Since they had became man and wife it seemed as if Sakura grew more and more beautiful. She still held her position at the hospital, still the third best medic in all of Konoha. Nearly two years ago, a few months after they had got married Sakura was promoted to the rank of Jounin. Kakashi's equal in most everything. Now, courtesy of Tsunade-sama, they were able to go on missions together, they were rarely ever separated. The rest of Team 7 were still some of the top shinobi in the village. Sasuke had moved on to become ANBU while Naruto, in favor of Hinata's wishes had remained at the rank of Jounin. Naruto had grown even stronger in the past two years, making him unbeatable expect by a select few, including the last two remaining Sannin and Kakashi.
Even though Sasuke would never admit it, Naruto had surpassed the last living Uchiha. While still the best of friends Sasuke had began to open up more towards his precious people; Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi. He had even accepted the fact that Sakura would never become his and that Kakashi was now her husband. There were no feelings of jealousy or regret what-so-ever. Now he considered himself like a brother to Sakura along with Naruto and Kakashi. Though he was reluctant to admit it, Kakashi was more of a father figure than he had ever been before.
“You're a beast...” Sakura sighed as she lay beneath Kakashi, spent from their love-making.
“Only the best for my favorite wife” Kakashi teased as he rolled from Sakura and spooned her against his chest.
“I'm your only wife Kakashi. Or have you another?” Sakura asked with a lethal tone to her voice as she turned her blazing sea-foam eyes up to the ever elusive Copy-nin.
“I'm shocked you would even suggest such a thing...” Feeling the evil intent still radiating from the Kunoichi beside him he decided to enlighten her. “Your my only wife unless you want to count Icha Icha?” Kakashi smirked lop-sidedly as he tried steering their conversation back on amusing ground.
“Is that so? Then what if I get rid of those so called paper back books, hm?” Sakura questioned deviously with a raised eyebrow as she made to get up from the bed.
Kakashi caught her with his quick reflexes, dragging her back to the bed as he pinned her form beneath him. “You wouldn't dare...” Kakashi growled lowly as he held Sakura's arms above her head, stopping her thrashing movements.
“Oh, but darling...why would I get rid of those books when they make you so great in bed?” Sakura said seductively as she ground her hips against Kakashi who was becoming more aroused by the second.
“If you keep this up then we might as well stay in bed all day” Kakashi hissed as he nipped at Sakura's finely sculptured collar bone.
“Maybe that's what...” Suddenly an insistent pounding came from the living room, effectively stopping their seductive banter. “And just when we were getting started too..” Sakura groaned as Kakashi moved from the bed and began pulling on his recently discarded clothing.
“I'll be back” Kakashi smiled with a quick kiss to Sakura's forehead before he headed towards the front door.
The pounding had stopped as Kakashi made his presence known in the living room, for which he was oddly suspicious of. He couldn't feel the usual presence of chakra which was an odd feat in itself. Reaching for the brass door knob he thrust the door open, suspecting an unwanted visitor.
“Kakashi dear friend! I've been searching for you all morning!” Jiraiya exclaimed as he pushed his way past Kakashi and into the warm house. Pulling himself up to his normal height he looked around what he could see of the house with obvious approval.
“What makes you think I'm your friend?” Kakashi asked with a glare as he noticed Jiraiya ogling a picture of Sakura that was hung on the wall.
Jiraiya turned around with an innocent smile as he scratched the back of his head. “Hehe...about that...I need to talk with you about something important. Something serious...” Jiraiya said albeit hesitantly as he took a seat on the nearest chair which happened to be at the kitchen table.
Kakashi followed suit, noticing the nervous twittering of the legendary Sannin which was something oddly disturbing. Seating himself across from him Kakashi proceeded to watch Jiraiya with a sense of foreboding danger. No matter how much he liked Jiraiya's novels he still didn't necessarily trust the man, especially around Sakura.
Kakashi waited patiently for a few minutes before he became paranoid with the usually exuberant Sannin. “Well...”
“Oh! Yes, I should get right to the point” Jiraiya exclaimed before he slouched forward in his chair, a serious expression plastered on his rugged face. “There may be an uprising soon.”
“There are uprisings everyday, so why...” Kakashi said with a bored air to his voice. There were always uprising from the dangerous S-ranked criminals to the everyday village problems. He didn't see why Jiraiya had deliberately came to Sakura's and his home to tell him such a mundane thing.
“You're not very smart for your worldly reputation..” Jiraiya said with narrowed eyes, causing Kakashi to instantly prepare a rebuke for the blow to his ego. Before he was able to say the insult that was on the tip of his tongue Jiraiya continued, uninterrupted. “Anyway, there's been an uprising in Oto...another leader has been appointed. There isn't much information on him, just that he's as twisted as Orochimaru was. Their power has risen steadily in the past few months, they're becoming a real problem. They have already shown their hatred for Konoha by assassinating three lords and a group of elite Jounin. Tsunade is going to take action soon...I thought I should give you fair warning, she will most likely be sending the best...which will include you, and perhaps even Sakura...” Jiraiya trailed off hesitantly, watching Kakashi warily for he had tensed up.
A million thoughts were running through Kakashi's mind as he contemplated their current situation. He knew that he would be sent out to gather information on the new leader of Sound. He knew that it was a possibility that Sakura might be going also. And he also knew that there was a high chance that they wouldn't return alive. Whatever the outcome he knew that it wouldn't be good. It would be especially hard on Sakura, knowing that if she didn't get to go then she would put up a good fight to stop him from going. Besides that he had kept one secret from Sakura that he was afraid would come out into the open if he was selected for the mission.
“Do you know when she'll be sending them?” Kakashi asked as he ran his hand through his hair, a habit he had formed during stressful situations.
“Soon. Probably from three to four weeks. She's already taking steps to secure Konoha encase war breaks out.”
“Who else knows about this?”
“The Daimyo, the council, Kazekage, Morino Ibiki, Genma, Anko, Nara Shikamaru, and a few of the Hunter-nin. Tsunade is keeping this as secret as possible until we see if Oto is a real threat. She doesn't want the citizens to panic. We're still recuperating from Orochimaru's attack even though it's been eight years.”
Jiraiya leaned back in his chair as he relayed the details to Kakashi. He had just came from a long meeting with Tsunade and the council where he had been instructed to tell Kakashi about the uprising. Now that he had told him he wasn't too sure if it was such a good idea. Kakashi was an excellent shinobi, nearly equal with himself but since he had become a married man he had changed. It wasn't that his skills had diminished, in fact his prowess had increased ten-fold; probably due to his protection of Sakura. But he had his mind on his wife so much that he wasn't giving his all in missions. Their was even some rumors going around that he was going 'soft' which was an understatement in Jiraiya's point-of-view.
Kakashi sighed morosely as he stood up from his seat and walked with Jiraiya to the door. “Thank you. Keep me informed if anything else comes up and...” Kakashi grabbed Jiraiya's sleeve before he stepped into the street, “don't tell Sakura anything about this.”
“I won't” Jiraiya said with a nod before he stepped onto the bustling street, off to see Naruto.
Kakashi closed the door with a soft click and instantly became alert when he felt Sakura's presence behind him. He turned slowly to see her with crossed arms as she tapped her foot, watching him with arched eyebrows. “And what isn't Jiraiya supposed to tell me?” Sakura asked suspiciously as she watched Kakashi walk toward her.
“It was nothing. He was just telling me about his next book” Kakashi said with a smile hidden behind his mask. Pulling down the clothe he elicited a scream of surprise from Sakura when he picked her up bridal style and carried her to their room.
Sakura awoke with a start as her stomach begin to roil, making her nauseous. Pushing away Kakashi's arm she jumped from the bed and ran to the bathroom, barely making it in time. Ten minutes later she had emptied her stomach of it's sparse contents. A movement out of the corner of her eye made her jump in surprise. She quickly recovered when she noticed it was only Kakashi looking at her worriedly.
“Are you alright?” Kakashi asked as he stepped into the bathroom, noticing Sakura's pale complexion and trembling hands.
“Fine. I think I just caught something, nothing to worry...” The next instant Sakura was hunched over the toilet, heaving from her already empty stomach. Kakashi rushed to her side and moved her hair from her neck as he rubbed her back soothingly. After a few minutes of painful heaving Kakashi helped Sakura to her feet and walked her to their bed. Covering up her trembling body he went into the kitchen, coming back minutes later with a glass of water and a pitcher of tea.
“Here, drink this.” Kakashi handed Sakura the cup of water which she drowned in large gulps, her throat easing from the acidic taste lingering on her esophagus. Sakura looked down to see Kakashi holding a cup of tea out to her, but she shook her head stubbornly.
“Come on. You'll feel better” Kakashi coaxed when Sakura refused to take the tea. “Then I'll go get Tsunade...” Kakashi began as he made to move from the bed when Sakura snaked out with her hand and took the cup from his possession. Sipping from the tea slowly until the cup was empty Sakura looked up at Kakashi gratefully.
“Thanks...But Kakashi?” Sakura began softly as she looked down at her hands that were resting on her lap.
“Yes?”
“I don't think I'm sick. There aren't any other symptoms for anything that involves vomiting...”
Kakashi immediately became worried, possible scenarios rushing through his mind. “What do mean? It could of just been something you ate...”
“I don't think so. I'm a medic if you haven't forgotten Kakashi and I know my body better than anyone. I think I might need to see Tsunade-sama...” Sakura said with caution before she began to get up from the bed. She was stopped by Kakashi's hand on her arm. Looking up she saw the worry and stubbornness in his eyes and knew he wouldn't let her go anywhere in her condition.
“I'm going to get Tsunade, I'll be back quickly. You just stay there until I get back.” Kakashi kissed Sakura's forehead softly before pulling up his mask and exiting quickly through the door.
Kakashi waited inside the living room, pacing nervously. It had been ten minutes since Tsunade had been with Sakura, examining her condition. In that time Kakashi had been coming up with the worst possible scenarios. It was not helping his nervousness at all. Hearing the door to the bedroom open Kakashi whirled around to see Tsunade coming out of the room, a frown on her youthful face. Dread welled up within his chest, nearly suffocating him.
“Is she alright?” Kakashi asked as calmly as he could in his current predicament.
Kakashi became confused when Tsunade's frown turned into a large smile as she slapped his back with enough force to make him stumble. Leaning forward Tsunade whispered into Kakashi's ear quietly...”Congratulations.”
“What?..” Kakashi began with an odd expression on his face before Tsunade stood back from him and exclaimed, “You're going to be a father!”
Kakashi stood in shock for a full minute before the realization of what Tsunade had said sank in. Jerking to reality Kakashi ran towards the bedroom, nearly knocking the door off it's hinges in his rush to get to Sakura. He came to an abrupt halt when he saw Sakura sitting on the edge of the bed, a large smile alighting her face. Walking the last few steps Kakashi gathered Sakura into his arms. Being careful of her stomach he lifted her from the bed and twirled her around as laughter escaped from his throat.
When Kakashi settled Sakura back down onto the bed she pulled down his mask and kissed him passionately. “We're going to be parents” Sakura spoke softly as she rested her forehead against Kakashi's.
“Yes...” Kakashi replied just as softly with a sappy grin on his face.
“You're not upset?” Sakura asked after a moment of silence as they continued to look into each others eyes.
Kakashi pulled back and looked at her with confused eyes, “What?”
“You're not upset that we're going to have a child? Remember when you proposed to me and we agreed to not have any children?” Sakura asked with a hint hesitancy as she watched Kakashi's face intently.
“It doesn't matter any longer. We're still going to have this child and raise him to be just like his mother.”
“Him? What makes you think it's going to be a boy?” Sakura asked with a grin as she brought Kakashi's face back towards her.
“Just a thought...” Kakashi said before he took Sakura's lips softly, smiling into their kiss in joy.
