I woke up in my hospital bed with the covers up to my chin. My muscles were pretty stiff, and my eyes were heavy. I moaned as I turned my head to look out the big window beside me, and saw that there was light. It looked pretty early in the morning, but I wasn't sure.

I moaned again as I sat up swiftly in my bed. I pushed the covers to my waist and rubbed my eyes. I opened them again to see the black jacket I had wore last night, folded up neatly on the chair where I had gotten it from. I smiled to myself. Sasuke brought me home last night…I thought as I yawned.

I frowned as I remembered last night. The kiss Sasuke and I shared, and how he told me he was leaving to take care of Orochimaru for Akiyo and I. Sasuke really did have a soft heart inside, and I smiled as I knew that deep down inside, Sasuke loved me. It was so hard to put Sasuke and Love in the same sentence, but I knew he did from last night. I'll come back for you ran through my mind over and over again.

"Is she awake?" a voice asked from outside my hospital room door. I recognized that it was Naruto's immediately.

"Im not sure. I just got here." another voice said. It was Neji's.

"Well knock on the door, stupid." Naruto snapped.

"You're the one who was wondering. I was going to go in anyway." Neji snapped back.

"I'm awake." I yelled loud enough so they could hear me.

"You woke her up, you imbecile!" Neji nagged.

"Why the heck is it always my fault?!" Naruto screamed back. I laughed and rolled my eyes as they opened the door and walked in.

Naruto was dressed in his orange jumpsuit and Neji was dressed in his usual outfit as well. However, Neji was holding some flowers and Naruto was holding a box of chocolates. I smiled as they came closer.

"What's all this?" I asked glancing at the flowers.

"Naruto and I decided it would be nice to get you something since you are in the hospital." Neji said calmly handing over the bouquet of flowers. It was filled with roses and lilies. Ino would have a fit if she were here, she's a big freak when it comes to putting the right flowers together. But they are boys, I wouldn't think they'd know much about flowers.

Naruto handed over the small, heart shaped box of chocolates with a smile. I smiled back at both of them. "Thanks so much guys, you didn't have to do that!" I exclaimed.

"We wanted to." Naruto said rubbing the back of his spiky blond hair. "I just hope you'll be out of the hospital soon."

"Lady Tsunade said there's a good chance I could be out in a couple days," I said laying the chocolates and flowers on the table beside the Hyuga ointment that Neji also gave me yesterday. "And I can see Akiyo today." I said excitedly.

"Awesome! That means we can see him too!" Naruto said with a grin that filled his face.

I laughed. "Not before I do!" I said playfully. Naruto laughed back. He looked at Neji and nudged him in the arm.

"Oh yeah, wasn't there something you wanted to tell us??" Naruto asked, making me bring my own focus on Neji. Neji looked at Naruto then looked at me.

"Yes," he said calmly. He closed his eyes and sighed. "Tenten and I…are an item."

"A what?" Naruto and I seemed to have strangely said at the same time. Neji rolled his eyes.

"An item. It means dating, going out, boyfriend and girlfriend, whatever you want to call it." Neji said putting his hands in his pockets.

"Aww! How cute, Neji!" I screamed in excitement.

"Psh, an 'item'" Naruto said laughing. "that is SO uncool…"

"Shut up, Naruto." I snapped glaring at him. I turned to Neji and smiled again. "That's awesome, Neji. Tenten has liked you for a long time…"

"Yes, I know." Neji said matter-of-factly. It reminded me of Sasuke and it made me smile.

"Really?" Naruto asked dumbly. "She liked you?" Neji and I seemed to have hit our foreheads with our palms at the same time.

"Yes, you buffoon." Neji said annoyingly. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

"How did it happen?" I asked ignoring Naruto's pouting.

"Well, she walked with me home yesterday after I left Hinata at the hospital. We started talking, and I asked her if she would like to go do something sometime. We are currently dating." Neji said smiling.

"How cute!" I exclaimed. "speaking of Hinata, did she ever wake up?"

"Yes, she woke up this morning. She's went with Kiba to grab something to eat, she'll be here later." Naruto said with his arms crossed. "I went to go see her and her face turned all red again…" he mumbled. He looked at Neji. "your cousins weird…" he said pointing at Neji.

Neji and I sighed. "She likes you, you idiot!" I screamed annoyed. Naruto looked at me with an eyebrow raised. He laughed after a moment.

"Your silly, Sakura, she doesn't like me! Her face turns red every time she sees me, maybe shes just scared of me." Naruto said laughing.

"Naruto"-

"Forget it, Sakura." Neji said sighing an annoyed sigh. Naruto glared at Neji for a minute, but a knock on the door brought all of our attention to it.

"Come in." I yelled.

"Hello, Sakura." Lady Tsunade said opening the door. She was holding a bundle of blue blanket, and I automatically knew she was holding Akiyo. My baby.

I smiled. "Lady Tsuande…" I said happily. "Akiyo." my heart was beating fast as I saw two small pale arms out of the blanket. Lady Tsunade smiled and looked down at Akiyo.

"I overheard you talking and decided that you might want to see him now. Its been a while." she said walking over to me. I held out my arms for the blue blanket and she calmly placed him in my arms as gently as possible. When I saw him, tears immediately rushed to my eyes.

He was looking at me with dark eyes and they were wide open. At first his expression was confused, he was not used to my face. At first it made me frown, because of the fact he didn't even know his own mother. But when he showed me a small, toothless grin, my heart melted. Him being only three weeks old, I wouldn't think he could smile. But he was seriously, looking at me with a toothless smile. He cooed at me, opening and closing his tiny fists. It was like I was looking into Sasukes eyes, that's how much they looked like his. Akiyo had Itachi's color hair and tiny line marks that lay under his eyes. He looked more like Itachi, but I could see my nose and lips. I smiled as a tear escaped my eye. He had gotten bigger, but he was still tiny.

"Hes beautiful, Sakura." Lady Tsunade said brushing her finger on Akiyos cheek. "I was surprised when I saw he was a boy. It seems I made a mistake, sorry about that. It seems you were right all along."

"Its okay. In a way, I wanted a daughter. But I love Akiyo more than anything." I said kissing Akiyos cheek. I looked at Neji then and remembered that I needed to thank him. "Neji, thank you for saving Akiyos life. I cant thank you enough." I said looking at Akiyo. "and for helping me too."

Neji smiled. "Your welcome. Anything I can ever do to help Akiyo, let me know." he said nicely. I gave him a smile in return.

"Well, ill leave him with you right now." Lady Tsunade said turning and walking towards the door. "Shizune has got a bunch of paper work for me to fill out…it such a bore." she said smiling. "ill come and get him later. Take care of him."

"Of course I will." I said smiling at Akiyo. "hes my son. I have too." Lady Tsunade nodded and walked out the door.

"That reminds me," Neji said as soon as Lady Tsunade closed the door. "I have to go meet Tenten at her house, we are going to train together today." he said. He walked up beside me and patted Akiyo's head. He smiled at him, getting a tiny smile in return. "goodbye, Sakura, Akiyo." Neji said turning away.

"Bye, Neji." I said. As soon as Neji was gone, Naruto grabbed the wooden stool and scooted it up close to the bed. He sat by me and patted Akiyos tiny, soft head too.

"Hes gonna be a genius." Naruto said looking at Akiyo. "just like Sasuke and Itachi."

"Yeah." I said kissing Akiyo again. "hes going to be gorgeous too."

"I havent heard anything from Sasuke yet," Naruto said sadly, ignoring my comment about him being gorgeous. "im sorry."

"Its okay." I said smiling. "he'll be fine."

"Hm?" Naruto said surprised. He looked at me until I looked back into his dark blue eyes, they were filled with confusion. "just yesterday, you were worried sick about him." Naruto pointed out. "why so confident all of a sudden?"

I snorted and looked at Akiyo who was closing his tiny eyes. I saw his tired expression and his fists clenched into tight balls. "just a hunch." I said brushing my finger against Akiyos soft cheek.
