Baby Sasuke

New Friend

[6:00 AM]
Sasuke slowly opened his eyes and he saw Itachi sitting next to his crib.
"Tachi!"
Sasuke stood up in his crib excited to see his older brother again.
"Hello little brother it's been a while." Itachi said as he stood up and he poked Sasuke's forehead earning a giggle from the toddler.
"How have you been Sasuke, I see you're being properly taken care of."
"Yeah yeah Sakuwa gif me fewd an Sakuwa gif me new daipy an Sakuwa ged me cookies."
Sasuke continued to list off everything Sakura has done for him and this made his older brother smile until Sasuke's smile had suddenly disappeared leading Itachi to get curious.
"What's wrong Sasuke?" Itachi asked curiously.
"Sakuwa don pway wi me wots no moe." Sasuke replied a little crestfallen.
"Yes I know she is...well lets just say she is preparing for something surprising."
Sasuke looked up at his brother.
"Wa dat?" Sasuke asked.
"The surprise?" Itachi said which earned a nod from Sasuke.
"Yeah wa sapise?" Sasuke asked.
"Well... you're just going to have to wait and see what it is
The older Uchiha rubbed his brother's head ruffling Sasuke's black hair.
"Heh heh."
This made Sasuke giggle.
"Anyways little brother it's time for me to leave."
"Tachi tay hewe Sakuwa gif ou fewd an gif ou new daipy an ou pway wi me.."
Said the toddler hoping his brother would stay.
"Little brother I'm too old for diapers...not that it matters since...I'm not here anymore."
Itachi said trying not to mention his fate to his infantile brother.
"Bud ou hewe Tachi."
Itachi smiled his little brother has regained the innocence that he had stolen from him on the night of the massacre.
"Well Sasuke I must go now...be good for me and tell Sakura I said thank you for taking care of you."
Itachi activated his sharingan and Sasuke eyes started getting heavy.
"Tachi."
Sasuke fell asleep and he was in a deep sleep once more.
[Two hours later]
Sasuke opened his eyes and he woke up to see Sakura face above him, she was changing his diaper.
"Hey sleepy head about time you woke up."
Sasuke rubbed the sleepiness out of his eyes
"You were asleep a lot longer than usual you must've been very tired."
Sakura finished changing the toddler's diaper and she placed him on the floor.
"There all clean now let's get you fed."
Sakura grabbed Saskue's hand and she led him towards the kitchen.
Once the two made it to the kitchen, the toddler was placed inside his high chair while Sakura got started on making breakfast.
"Sakuwa...Me wad sweep me see Tachi."
Said the toddler.
Sakura turned around to face the child with a perplexed look on her face.
"You did...was he in your dreams."
Sakura asked the toddler.
Sasuke shook his head.
"No, Tachi wad hewe an he talkies to me."
Sakura smiled and she rubbed the top of Sasuke's head she figured that boy just had a dream where his brother was just in it.
"Well Sasuke that just means your brother likes to look after you."
Sakura placed a bowl of scrambled eggs with a toaster waffle in front of Sasuke and she placed a sippy cup of apple juice on his high chair tray.
"There you are, eat up."
Sakura said as she soon made her own plate of food so she could eat.
The toddler took no time to eat his food whilst getting most of his breakfast on his pajamas.
"I should buy him a baby bib then he'll stop getting his clothes messy."
Sakura started to eat her food.
"Sawa Sawa"
Sasuke called out to the kunoichi with his mouth full.
"Don't talk with your mouth full Sasuke."
Sasuke started drinking his juice and he swallowed the food in his mouth.
"Sakuwa Sakuwa!!."
"Yes sweetie?"
"Whewe Tachi?"
The boy asked the kunoichi, the question caught Sakura off guard as she didn't want to just out right tell Sasuke the truth it would probably overwhelm the baby.
"He's on a mission to a very far away land."
Even though she knew that lying to a toddler is not the most morally correct thing to do but it's better to spare him the painful truth.
"Oh...otay"
Sasuke continued to eat the rest of his breakfast.
("Dodged a bullet there but still...I can't continue to lie to him like this")
After breakfast Sakura changed Sasuke's clothes and she sat him down on the living room couch.
"Alright Sasuke why don't you watch some cartoons while I do dishes okay?"
Sasuke nodded.
"Otay Sakuwa."
Sakura smiled as she went back to the kitchen and she started making a phone call.
Sasuke started watching the cartoon that was on the T.V the antics of the colorful characters were fun to look at but Sasuke quickly gotten bored of just watching the cartoons so he slid off the couch and he went to where Sakura was and he tugged on her shirt.
"Hold on Sasuke, Mommy is on the phone."
Sakura patted the boy's head and she continued to talk on the phone.
"Bud me wan pway wi Mommy!"
Sasuke whined.
"Go play with your toys for now Sasuke and we'll play later."
Sakura said as she placed Sasuke in his playpen.
"I promise."
Sakura went back to the kitchen where she continued her call.
"B bud me wan p pway wi Mommy!!"
Sasuke said as he started crying out of the frustration he felt at being able to only play by himself.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaah!"
Sasuke cried loudly.
Sakura sighed, knowing that today was gonna be a tiring one already.
"Yeah that's him crying now...can I call you back Lady Tsunade....okay thank you I gotta go deal with this."
Sakura hung up her phone and she went back inside the living room when she saw the crying toddler she kneeled in front of the playpen he was in.
"Okay that's enough crying Sasuke, dry those tears."
Sakura grabbed some tissues and she cleaned the tears and snot off of the young Uchiha's face.
"Now can you tell Mommy what's the matter?"
Sakura asked as she grabbed more tissue for the sniffling child.
Sasuke continued to whimper and sniffle, he was still too upset to speak so Sakura held a tissue to his nose.
"Blow." Said the mother to be.
Sasuke blew his nose as hard as he could once he was finished blowing Sakura discarded the tissue and she picked up the toddler.
"Now do you want to tell Mommy what's wrong?"
Sakura asked as she was patting the toddler's back.
"Mommy won pway wi Sake." Sasuke replied as he wiped his face.
"You want someone to play with you?" Sakura repeated back to the toddler to which Sasuke nodded in response.
"I'm sorry Sasuke but Mommy is busy right now and your cousin is at school today."
Sasuke lowered his head this made Sakura feel bad she wanted to play with Sasuke and make him happy but she really needed to get some of her business taken care of but she then had an idea.
"Hey Sasuke do you want to go to the park?" Sakura asked the boy.
"Pawk?" Sasuke repeated.
"Yeah the park they have swings, a sandbox, and some slides, and a bunch of other things for you to play on and there are a bunch of kids you can play with."
"Pway disaur wi me?" Sasuke asked.
"They might." Sakura answered.
Sasuke wiped his face.
"Otay me go pawk."
"Good let's go get ready." Sakura said as she carried off Sasuke and moments later both her and Sasuke was ready for their day at the park.
"Okay let's go Sasuke."
Sakura held onto the toddler's hand and she was starting to walk towards the front door until Sasuke let go of Sakura's hand.
"Disaur." Said the toddler as he went to grab his toy dinosaur and he then went back to Sakura's side and held her hand once more.
"Did you get everything Sasuke." Sakura asked, to which the response she received from the toddler was a nod.
"Good."
Sakura and Sasuke walked out of the house and left the Uchiha district and went onto the main street of the village.
"Alright if I remember correctly the best park to go to is in that newly developed metropolitan area."
Sakura pulled out her phone and she looked at her GPS to see where she needed to go, after receiving the directions Sakura followed her phone's directions until she found herself at the park she was looking for, the park itself was impressive since the old park that use be here got destroyed after Madara's meteor obliterated the area everything was built from scratch to be bigger and better than it used to be, this also includes the Kage tower and the park. Sakura eyed the new and improved park it had tons of new things the old one didn't have.
"Sasuke, you ready to play?" Sakura asked the toddler.
"Me pway swide me pway swide!!" Sasuke tugged on Sakura's fingers and he was trying to drag her along to where the slides were located, once Sasuke had led Sakura to the slides the toddler was going to climb the steps until Sakura picked him up.
"Hold on Sasuke this is the big kid play area let's go to the one next to it where there are kids your age." Sakura carried Sasuke to the baby play area and she placed him near the baby version of the slides.
Sasuke walked up the steps leading to the top of the slide but then he froze.
"Sasuke are you okay?"
"No wan go down Mommy." Sasuke said.
"If you're scared Sasuke I'll wait at the bottom for you and I can catch you, okay." Sakura said to the scared toddler.
"Pomise?" Sasuke asked
"I promise Sasuke." Sakura assured the toddler.
"O otay m me go down." Sasuke said.
Sakura went to the end of the slide and waved at the toddler indicating she was waiting for him at the bottom of the slide.
Sasuke started closed his eyes and he slid down the slide and a short moment later he felt himself being picked up, when he opened his eyes he saw that Sakura was holding him.
"See I told you I got you." Sakura placed the toddler back on the ground and the toddler grew a big smile.
"Gan gan!!!" Exclaimed the little Uchiha as he slowly climbed the steps to the slide again.
"Okay Sasuke I'll be waiting for you." Sakura said as she braced herself for on coming toddler.
Sasuke slid down the slide again except this time he didn't feel the need to cover his eyes as he felt more confident in going down the slide.
"Me go down Sakuwa."
Sasuke went down the slide again to be caught by Sakura once more.
"Good Job Sasuke." Sakura said as she smiled at the boy.
"You went down the slide without being scared."
"Me go gan Sakuwa." Sasuke said as went to climb the steps to the slide to only see that there was another little boy already ahead of him that went down the slide, the small child bumped into Sakura once he slid down the slide.
"Sowy." Said the boy as he excitedly ran back up the steps to the slide.
Sasuke went down the slide and he went back up the steps but before he reached the top of the slide again he saw the same boy slide down the slide again and he bumped into Sakura again.
"Sowy." said the boy again, this caused Sakura to giggle at the child.
"It's okay sweetie."
Sakura helped the boy up and dusted him off.
Sasuke started feeling something he didn't know this feeling but he did know that Sakura was his mommy and no one else's.
"Sakuwa Sakuwa!" Sasuke called out to his surrogate mother gaining Sakura's attention.
"I got you Sasuke."
Sakura picked up the toddler and she placed him on the ground.
"Hey Sasuke I was just talking with... what's your name?" Sakura asked the other toddler.
"Me....Y...Yuki." Said the boy proudly saying his name right.
"Nice to meet you Yuki and this is Sasuke, can you say hi to Yuki." Sakura asked the young Uchiha but the black haired toddler turned his head from Yuki, this shocked Sakura.
"Sasuke, that's not nice." Sakura scolded the child shocked by the boy's attitude.
Sasuke pouted
"Sorry about that Yuki, he knows better than to be mean."
Sakura glanced down at the boy.
"Right Sasuke?"
Sasuke merely nodded.
"Anyways Yuki it was nice meeting you, now do you know where your Mommy and Daddy are?"
Sakura asked the child hoping he's not lost.
"Yeah yeah Daddy is thewe."
Yuki turned around to point behind but of course his parents were not behind him.
"Mommy?"
Yuki said as he was trying to look his for his mother but he didn't see her.
"Me don see Daddy."
The boy said as he started to tear up.
Sakura bent down and she rubbed the boy's back.
"It's okay don't worry, we'll help you find your Mommy okay?"
"Otay" Yuki said as he wiped his tears.
Sakura rubbed Yuki's head and this made Sasuke get a little jealous.
"Do you know what your Daddy say before you got lost?" The kunoichi asked hoping she could have something to work with for her search.
"Daddy say me nod see Daddy an Papa me pose gif dis to ninja."
Yuki lowered his pants to show he had some numbers on the front of his diaper.
Sakura giggled at the child.
"Is that a phone number?"
Sakura pulled out her phone and she called the number.
"Hello, this is Sakura Haruno I found your child....were at the Baby Park area you'll be here shortly....okay see you then."
Sakura hung up her phone.
"Okay Yuki your Daddy is gonna be here real soon okay but until then why don't you and Sasuke play while we wait."
Sakura said.
"Otay."
Yuki turned to Sasuke and he asked him
"Wan pway sady castle?"
Sasuke stopped his pouting and he wanted to know about the game.
"Sady castle?"
Sasuke repeated.
"Yeah."
Yuki grabbed Sasuke's hand and he led him to the sandbox where Yuki instantly got to work."
"Me had big sady castle, sake make sady castle too."
Sasuke looked at Sakura and she smiled and nodded.
Sasuke sat in the sandbox and he started molding some of the sand into his own sand castle.
"Sake sake wook wook!"
Sasuke looked up at the other child and he was surprised that Yuki's castle.
"Mine sady castle bigger." The boy teased.
Sasuke did not want to be outdone in this game, especially if Sakura is watching so Sasuke started putting more effort into building his sand castle and he added a leaf he had found to resemble a flag for his sand castle, but as time passed Sasuke and Yuki started building a bigger sand castle together. The two boys enjoyed each other's company and Sasuke for the first time got to play with someone his age.
After some time had passed Sasuke and Yuki had stopped their game of building sand castles and they started playing tag with each other.
"Sake id" Yuki said as he tapped Sasuke.
"Nu uh me ged Uki."
Sasuke started chasing after the boy but the fun had ended when Yuki had ran into the arms of two men.
"Daddy Papa!"
"Oh, my sweet baby boy!" The chubbier man exclaimed as he picked up the child and swing him around.
"Thank you for taking care of him and for having you go through all of this trouble for this random family." Said a far more physically fit man said.
"It's alright and besides he kept my kid with some company."
Sakura glanced over at Sasuke.
Sasuke his behind Sakura.
"Papa dat Sake, me an Sake pway tag an sady castle." Said the boy.
"Did you now, and did you and your new friend have fun?"
The man asked.
Yuki nodded.
"Thanks for playing with our son Sasuke." Said the man.
Sasuke his his head in Sakura's shirt.
"Sorry about that, he's not necessarily the social type but he did a lot of fun today Mr....I didn't catch your names. Sakura outstretched her hand out to the two men.
"I'm Sakura Haruno and this is Sasuke."
The more physically fit man shook Sakura's hand.
"I'm Hashimori and this is my husband Yumura"
"And of course you met our little Yukine or Yuki for short."
Yumura said as he held out his hand.
"Nice to meet you two." Sakura replied.
"So I wasn't aware that Lady Tsunade's successor had a child, he looks just like that one Sasuke fellow we use to keep hearing about."
Yumura said.
"Uhh...well yes we decided to get married during our travels and we had a child sometime after."
Sakura replied.
"Well he's a handsome young man."
Hashimori said.
{Yawn}
Yuki started rubbing his eyes.
"Would you look at that it's his nap time already and we know how he gets without proper sleep"
Hashimori said as he handed Yuki to Yumura.
"It was nice meeting you in person Miss.Haruno, we should talk more soon maybe set up a playdate in the future?"
"Yeah that sounds nice, why don't we all exchange numbers."
The three adults exchanged phone numbers and they waved goodbye to each other.
"Sakuwa me wan pway sir Uki moe." Sasuke said a little sad.
"I know but he had to go home with his parents."
Sakura picked up the boy and she started leaving the park.
"And besides it's your naptime too Sasuke."
Sakura started rocking the child gently.
"Sakuwa." Sasuke called out sleepily
"Yes Sasuke?" Sakura replied.
"Uki haf Daddy an Daddy an me haf Mommy an Daddy." Sasuke said.
"Why yes...yes he does Yuki has two daddies." Sakura replied as she knew Sasuke would have questions about what he just saw.
"Times are different compared to when I was a kid...and I am happy they changed."
Sakura said as she continued walking home.
"Me pway wi Uki gan Sakuwa" the boy asked
"Yes next time." Sakura replied earning a smile from Sasuke.
"Otay."
Sasuke said as he feel asleep.
Sakura smiled, she was really glad that Sasuke found a friend so he won't be a lonely anymore, just in case he doesn't turn back she at least can give him a better childhood compared to what he went through the first time around.
