It was a cold and bleak winter morning. Christmas was to come in a few days, but the streets were empty of any shoppers. The few people that could be seen running down the concrete roads seemed to be in a hurry. Large beanies and hoods covered their heads and huge raincoats drooped well past their knees. Scarves tightly wound around their necks were flying in the ice cold wind. Many of them had impatient faces while others looked as if they planned to go home and burn all the Christmas cards they had received.

But there was one exception to that group. Alone, in front of an old boutique store, stood a lone boy. With shaggy black hair, green eyes, and peach toned skin, the little boy looked like a raggedy angel. He must have been not much more than 10 years old. But the child's face was infused with so much happiness that someone could have mistaken him for a 6 or 7 year old. He was staring at the pretty green dress adorned on a mannequin inside the shop. After a few more moments of grinning, the boy rushed through the front door. 15 minutes later he ran out, clutching a large white bag to his chest, and sprinted down the streets.

"Yukio Uchiha what are you doing?!" A middle aged woman gaped incredulously as the child rushed into the kitchen (he remembered to take off his shoes halfway inside) and threw his top layers of clothes onto a nearby chair.

"Sorry Boto-sama, gotta go!"

The boy ran as quietly as he could up the stairs and into his room, making sure that his parents didn't hear his entry. He stopped once at his older brother's room to throw a stink-bomb in, and once at his baby sister's room to say hello to the smiling toddler. She had just started growing her teeth and rather enjoyed biting off the heads of the Barbie dolls Aunty Ino had given her.

Finally the boy skidded to a halt in his room and silently closed the door, making sure that he locked all three locks and placed a chair against the doorknob. He chucked four of his five bags under his bed and pulled out the box in the fifth. The deep emerald green dress was beautiful and it had cost him a month's worth of babysitting/tutoring to pay for it. Mommy's going to be so happy when she sees this. The child put it back in the box and wrapped the present up, sticking an enormous ribbon on top and writing his name last. He did the same with the rest of the four boxes, making sure each one was carefully wrapped and ribboned. He was an artistic perfectionist; once during art docent, one of his classmates had made fun of his carefulness and called him gay. Yukio and the boy were sent home soon after, one with a bloody nose and black eye, the other with a cut lip and sad grin of triumph. He knew fighting was bad but some people deserved to be hit.

"Yukio! Time for dinner! You're brother will be home soon so go wash up!"

Stealthily, he balance all five of his presents on one hand and tiptoed down the stairs. He placed the gifts carefully under the extravagant Christmas tree and went to go wash his hands.

"What's wrong Mom?" Yukio and his older brother, Hisaro, glanced toward their mother's annoyed face. Aki giggled from her highchair and clapped. "Daddy late! Mommy mad. Tonight Daddy will be sad!"

"…where the hell did she learn that?" Hisaro stared at his baby sister in shock; Yukio's mouth dropped open.

"She's a smart girl. Aren't you sweetheart?"

Aki giggled and reached toward Sakura. The pink haired woman picked her up and stood quietly next to the window.

"...Aww Mom, don't get upset, Dad's probably stuck in traffic or something."

"Yeah, I mean, I don't think he is with another lady like the women that work for him, like the ones that wear really small clothes, like that one Aunty Ino was yelling 'GO TAKE A FRIGGIN STICK AND FU—' Oww!" Yukio grimaced and rubbed his shoulder as his brother glared at him in annoyance.

Suddenly, the front door burst open; a tall raven haired man stalked in with a frown on his face. He slipped out of his raincoat and placed it on the mahogany hanger.

"Hisaro, what is the meaning of this?"

"What are y—"

"You know exactly what I'm talking about so don't play innocent."

"…aww come on! The dude frickin called me a homo cuz of the pink in my hair! It's not my fault Mom gave me pink highlights!"

The older man sighed and walked toward his glaring wife. "Let me guess, traffic?" Sakura dodged his attempt to kiss her cheek.

"No."

"You forgot how to get home?"

"No."

"You ran over an old lady crossing the street?"

"No."

"You drove into a tree? The car broke down? You forgot that you were supposed to be home at SEVEN and not a minute later? You forgot that I would destroy you if you came home late ONE MORE—"

"It was her."

"...her?"

The raven haired man sighed and took Aki out of his wife's arms; Sasuke then kissed Aki on the forehead and kissed his wife on the lips.

"Miss 'Candy' tried to lock me in a closet."

"Who's 'Candy' Dad?"

"Don't worry about it; Sakura, it won't happen again, I—"

"I am going to rip that bitch's throat out of her neck and feed it to the wolves I swear—"

"Sakura—"

"—then I'll take her heart and stab it 30 times and feed it to the cats—"

"Sa-kur-a—"

"—then I'll take her body and chuck it into a tractor, then I'll—"

"You're scaring the crap out of the kids. I think Yukio is going to wet his pants."

"Dad!!"

"Ha! Dork!"

"Excuse me?!"

"Kids! Sasuke, how are you going to handle this, that woman is a who—really bad person and she's already tried these kinds of stuff 50 times, what if next time—"

"There will be no next time."

"How do you—"

"I fired her." Sasuke reached toward his shocked wife and held her to his chest.

"Wha—"

"Let's just eat dinner."

The family sat down, and ate their dinner as if nothing had happened. While Yukio and Hisaro bickered with Sasuke and Sakura chiming in once in a while, Aki threw bits of food from her plate.

"Dammit, don't throw rice blobs at me!"

"It wasn't me you idiot!"

"Boys keep your tempers down!"

"Aki threw the food dummy!"

"Twerp."

"Jerk!"

"Kids!"

"Stop picking in my or I'll tell mom about Sano and the classroom incident!"

"Do that and I swear, I will send you to hell in three seconds flat—"

"CHILDRENJUST PLEASE BE QUIET FOR A SECOND!!!!! AND. NO. MORE. FIGHTING!!!!"

"..."

"..."

"...Hisaro, Juno told me to tell you that 'she wants you' or something."

"Jesus Christ, tell her to stay away or I'll put a restraining order on her."

"Oh, and Suko says not to 'touch his girl' and Misa says 'thank you for the love note' and..."

"Mommy getting red! You going to bed!"

Sakura send Yukio and Hisaro to their room a few minutes later. She tucked Aki into the crib, went to her own room, and fell facedown onto the bed.

"...Sakura?"

"Mmf."

Sasuke leaned down and kissed her cheek, letting his tongue slide out and move toward her ear. He nibbled it gently for a while, and then stood up. Sakura caught his hand and held it tightly.

"Sakura, I need to go take a shower and so do you."

"Mmrf." The pink haired woman made no move to stand up.

Sasuke sighed and swiftly picked up his wife. He strolled toward the bathroom.

"Sasuke—"

"Well, since you didn't let me go, I thought that you might as well join me."

"Sasuke, don't—"

The raven haired man slid his mouth against hers; his tongue slid smoothly past her parted lips and he began rubbing her side slowly with knowing fingers. Though she resisted for a moment, Sakura gave in quickly and moaned; her arms wound tightly against his neck, and she pressed her body closer to his chest. Sasuke lifted his head up, allowing his wife to breathe for a moment.

"—you dare stop, Uchiha."

Sasuke chuckled and placed his mouth on Sakura's again. He closed the door with his foot, and Sakura turned on the shower, all the while keeping her lips locked with his.

"—Wait, I need to—"

"Locked and checked, nobody is going to come in. And you are not going out tonight Uchiha, you hear me?"

"Hn."
