Temari is pregnant!

A Trip to Suna (Part 2)

Even though Temari stayed with her brothers at the Kazekage's office to help them as she could, her brothers had a different opinion. Instead of reviewing the needed documents Gaara and Kankurou were only focusing on Shikadai.

The Nara baby was sitting on top of Gaara's office and he was giggling as Kankurou was making weird faces and Gaara was softly tickling him. Temari was smiling at what he was seeing. The three of her four favorite men were sitting in front of her and were having fun.

"I assume that you liked Shikadai", she stated while watching her brothers

"What do you mean we like him? We are willing to trade you for him", Kankurou responded without even taking his eyes from Shikadai, "You don't mind staying here from now on, right Shikadai?", he addressed Shikadai in a baby voice.

"Kankurou don't say that. Shikadai and Temari are a package from now on. We can't separate them", Gaara said with a serious look on his face.

"I want to remind you that I don't want you to spoil him. He should be humble and work for everything that he earns", the oldest sibling used her scolding voice to talk to her brothers.

"How can you say that? Look how cute he is...", the puppeteer said in his baby voice once again.

"Well, we are not productive right now. I propose to return home and let Temari and Shikadai rest for today. Also, we need to discuss how we are going to approach the Elders", Gaara pointed out.

"You are right", Temari said, "let's get out of here!"

As they stood up, instantly Kankurou took the baby carrier from Temari and put it on to hold Shikadai. "Shikadai come on, your favourite uncle is going to hold you".

Before giving some time to Gaara and Temari to respond, Kankurou was already out of Gaara's office with the baby in the carrier.

As the siblings were walking down the street, the Suna people greeted them; however, the one who stole the show was Shikadai. Everyone was greeting the siblings but as soon as they noticed Shikadai, the three of them were forgotten. All of them were grateful to the Suna people because they didn't invade their personal space.

In no time they reached their house. Nothing has changed. Everything was the same as Temari remembered. The same decoration in the living room, the same curtains, the same furniture. It has been over a year since she last was in her Suna home. She missed this place.

Her life in Konoha was really good, but sometimes she missed this familiar environment. The roughness on her face from the sand, the heat from the sun, the uncomfortable feeling of walking on sand. Someone might think that she was weird, but she did love Suna.

As she was lost in her memories, Kankurou was showing the house to Shikadai. "Here is my room, across the hall is your mother's room, and at the end of the hall is Gaara's room. The coolest room is mine, so when you grow up a little you would mostly stay in my room and I will teach you how to be a puppet master", Gaara and Temari heard him say. "This is the kitchen. This place is important for all of us. Here we sit and eat all together and then we fight for who is going to wash the dishes", he continued.

"Kankurou, he is still too young, he can't understand you", Temari explained.

"I know, but he needs to know his way around his house. He should be independent. What if he wants a snack or goes to the toilet?"

"You do realize that he is barely standing and that he is wearing a diaper?", Gaara said

"Wait. He can't walk? You can't walk", he turned to Shikadai and asked him in a baby voice. "Damn, you are so cute! You smile all the time. Luckily you are not like your mother when she was young", he whispered in the baby's ear.
