"Do you want me to come with you? I'm free today. Maybe we can eat lunch outside?"

"It'll be boring for you. It's fine."

"You don't want to do anything for your birthday?"

"I'm too hot to do anything outside." Akira fanned herself with her hands, slouching on the worn-down sofa in her sports bra and underwear. "What's with this heatwave?"

"Let's go out for ice cream then. Maybe have a quick swim at the place my dad used to bring me." Kakashi nudge her playfully with his foot,

"Don't touch me! I'm too hot!"

"Why are you seeing the doctor? Is there something wrong?"

"No, I just want to have a check-up. You know? Before we get married and everything. I'll be fine, Kakashi."

"Just precautionary? You promise?"

"Yes, I promise. I think it's good to at least know about yourself. It's normal to talk about your finances, family history and all, but I think your health is important too."

"But we're jonins, we get free checkups every six months."

Akira just stared at him, waiting for him to understand what she meant.

"Did the doctor say anything during your last check-up?"

"I'm fit as a fiddle."

"So, what makes it different from this one?"

"My darling, that's not the check-up I'm talking about." She gave him a mockingly sad look, "Oh no, you really have no clue."

"You're not helping." He rolled his eyes,

"We need to talk about our plan for after."

"Yes, I would love to. Of course." Kakashi dragged himself closer to her, "What do you need?"

"Stop, it's a two-way thing. We have to be on the same page." Akira held her hand out to stop him, "How about we talk after my check-up? I have to leave soon."

He squinted his eye at her suspiciously, "Am I missing something? Are you expecting a surprise party? Are you trying to say you're giving me time to throw you a birthday bash?"

"No, no, and no." She giggled, "I don't want any of those things. I just want to spend the day with you."

"You're leaving me hanging here. Then why are you going to go get a check-up?"

"You know what they don't check during our checkups?"

"How hot you are in your underwear?"

"Thank you, I know. They don't check your fertility. If we plan to have children, I want to know what we're going to face. So we can be prepared."

"You want to have kids with me?" His face lit up,

"You don't?"

"Of course! Of course, I want to! Sorry, I just- I... I can't imagine you, and me, and our kids..." He sighed loudly, placing his hands over his heart and falling back to lie on the couch. His chest swelled with excitement and he had to hold on to his chest so his heart wouldn't jump out, "What a dream! Imagine a mini Akira! A mini me! Hold on! Do you think I should go check my swimmers too?"

"If you want." His excitement warmed her heart. She couldn't help but imagine Kakashi goofing off with their kids, just like them with their parents. All the tantrums and crying over petty things. Being a place of comfort and safety for their own product of love.
