Cherry blossoms

"Sasuke kun" sakura went over not sure whats going on, she tried to rest her hands over his shoulder when he smacked it away.
"I said don't touch me..." he growled again and she flinched looking down.
"Papa...whats wrong with you!" Sarada yelled at hee father, he glared at her.
"I am not your papa..." he said sternly.
He again walked over to hinata, and then grabbed her arms tightly, dragging her, hinata winced in pain when boruto tried to hit sasuke, he blocked the attack.
Naruto ran and carried boruto and then went to sasuke, gripped his arms tightly.
"What the hell is wrong with you sasuke..." naruto growled.
"She is my wife i said..." he snorted.
"She isn't your wife, sasuke..sakura is..." naruto yelped.
"Is this a sick joke from sakura? To pin me down like she did before!!! And you are helping her ne?" Sasuke snorted.
Hinata's eyes widened and then she said.
"Sa..sasuke kun...it..itai" she said slowly.
"Sasuke san...please...let go of my mom" himawari pleaded.
"San? You calling me uncle! I am your otosan himawari, and..." he let go of hinata, and bent to himawari who looked a little shorter and younger than his himawari and tried to remove the whiskers.
Himawari winced in pain, boruto ran and clutched to sasuke's arms.
"Stop hurting her..." boruto growled.
Hinata saw her husband's rage, and everyone was confused and bewildered.
She grinned her teeth and then suddenly yelled.
"Uchiha sasu!!!! STOP IT" she growled.
She then placed her hands over her mouth.
Why did she call him like that? She doesn't know.
Only something inside her told her to say so.
Sasuke stopped and his eyes widened.
When hinata snapped at him she always called him 'uchiha sasu...'.
He froze.
Hinata bent down, and signed for naruto and boruto to back away.
Sasuke stood up and looked at her lavender eyes.
Hinata flinched as the scene she saw.
Sasuke uchiha, had tears in his eyes.
He looked into her, and then bent over, placed his forehead on her shoulder and started shaking.
"Hinata, tell them you forgive me...is it all because i strike you...i am sorry, it won't happen again...don't do that..." sasuke's voice cracked and pleaded.
Everyone's eyes widened, and hinata's mouth gaped, she felt tears running down her face.
She involuntarily placed her hands over his back and patted him.
Sakura's eyes were filled with tears and sarada's mind couldn't comprehend.
"Daijoubu sasuke kun...daijoubu..." he voice comforted him, and hinata for some reason, felt warmth inside her heart.
Sasuke gained his composure.
"Sasuke...i think you have an amnesia, or someone placed you in a weird genjutsu..." naruto sighed.
"No genjutsu..." he pressed on his teeth.
"She is my wife!!!" He growled again.
"How is she your wife!!!" Naruto yelled back.
Sasuke clenched his fists.
"She has three beauty marks in her inner thighs, precisely on her left thigh...and a birth mark that looks like a strawberry on her left buttocks..." sasuke said monotonous.
Sakura's eyes widened.
Naruto's, sarada and boruto's mouth gaped.
Naruto looked at hinata who took couple of steps back, with a face beetroot red, she waved her hands infront of her.
"No no no no...how..how did you know..." hinata stammered and naruto walked to sasuke, ready to punch him.
"You slept with my wife!!!!" Naruto growled.
Sasuke dodged the attack.
"I said she is not your wife..she is mine...we married at the age of eighteen.."sasuke said.
"I'll prove to you..." he said as he walked through konoha, everyone followed him.
He reached the uchiha district to find it abandoned...
Sasuke's eyes widened and mouth gaped.
Naruto placed a hand over his friends shoulder.
"Come on sasuke..you need to be checked..." naruto told him, but he smacked his hands away and went to hinata, grabbed her collar.
"Is this an act you placed upon me hinata..." he growled at her.
"Where is the twins...are you punishing me..." he growled again.
"I don't want to miss the new baby's delivery..." he yelled and finally, naruto knocked sasuke down.
Sasuke's body limped and hinata supported it.
Naruto bent over and carried his friend's body.
"We need to call shikamaru and ino..." naruto said.
Sakura was at the back crying.

Sasuke opened his eyes, he used to wake upon sun shining and birds chirping, not he didn't wake upon these things, but something was different.
The warmth in the air as he smelled hinata's intoxicating scent, Amber mixed with cherries and lavender, her hums as she rocked the baby, while breast feeding him, and the smelly cooks she was preparing.
This house is different from his own.
Sasuke remembers the few times, that you could count on your hands he visited his house, back in his time, it was always cold, dead ,no sweet smell...no giggles of his children or hums of his beautiful breath taking wife.but here, Its warm, full of life, hinata's voice that reminded him of Mikoto's.
Her gentle sweet smile when he wakes up, telling him 'ohayo..sasuke kun'.
The twins, clinging to his legs, and asking him to play and spar with them.
Hinata's every-night's lullaby, that even put sasuke himself to sleep.
Her sweet talks as he read and she sewed his chemise, telling him about literally himself, and how they fell in love, how she knew everything he loved and all his darkest secrets.
His pouts and expressions that she could read like an open book.
The extremely bitter hot chocolate she prepared every night, and her gentle hands placed upon his forehead when he had a nightmare.
Or her gentleness that was shown when she placed a cover on him, as he stirred during his sleep.
Sasuke had this thing that he used to hang his legs out of the blanket, and hinata was always there to cover it.
How the children loved and respected him...not like sarada, but even in a warmer way, that he didn't encounter with his father.
Hinata always told him she taught her children to always show affection to their father, so he'd always feel loved.
And thats what sasuke always wanted, to feel loved, not for his outside look, like sakura and everyone who sees him because he is 'cool' no but because his inside, his darkest flaws that hinata embraced and helped him to get through his trauma.
Not like the selfish sakura, but the selfless hinata that only wanted her husband to be happy.
Sasuke started to pay more attention to details.
He went to the kitchen as he saw rocking the child and cooking.
She heard his steps and turned with her smile.
"Ohayo..sasuke kun.." the first detail he noticed, how her smile changed.
She has three smiles...a fake pained smile, a bright smile in the morning...and an appreciation smile.
Sasuke gave her the 'hm' she turned and gave him his morning coffee.
"Breakfast will be ready in five" she said as she held her son, and cooked.
"I can have him..." sasuke said.
Hinata looked at him puzzled.
"Oh..no no sasuke kun...i don't want to bother you..." she smiled..the appreciation one..he noted.
"Its fine, in the end..he has my genes..." sasuke said, hinata flinched and found herself heating up.
This sasuke reminds her of her sweet one.
The one she fell in love with...
She handed him the child, sasuke started rocking him, but suddenly the child coughed and stained his cloth with white milk.
"Oh..he gaged...sorry sasuke kun..." hinata ran to him, and she took the child.
"Himawari..come take Eiji..." she yelled.
Himawari came and tiptoed.
She kissed sasuke on his cheeks.
"Morning papa..." she said and took Eiji.
Sasuke's eyes widened.
"Oh, i taught the kids to always kiss sasuke morning and goodbye.." hinata smiled.
Sasuke felt warmth inside his heart, his whole life he has been deprived from tenderness since his brother killed his parents.
Never he felt the family love, but this was so warm.
That bastard is missing so much...then sasuke remembered.
He himself is missing too much.
The mere thought of going back to sakura and sarada made his stomach twist and his heart sink.
He doesn't want to leave this family...he doesn't want to leave hinata.
Hinata looked down embarrassed.
Sasuke knew, she wanted to say something but too shy.
"What?" He said.
"Uh..i..can i take your shirt to wash it.." she twiddled her fingers.
'Cute' sasuke noted..her shyness makes her even appealing.
He nodded and took of his shirt.
Hinata looked at his broad chest, she remembered sasuke, and wished to hug him..she misses him so much.
And the worst, she is falling for this one.
Doesn't make her a cheater...or are they the same person.
Hinata kept gazing at him, mouth gaped when sasuke smirked.
"Like what you see?" He mocked.
Hinata's face flustered, he noticed another thing.
She looked way beautiful when she is flustered, her face turned red and she stammered.
"Go..gomenne..." she turned and ran to the laundry room.
Hinata sighed and breathed slowly, to calm those thoughts down.
After a while, they gathered to eat breakfast.
Sasuke noticed how The twins were so much attached to their mothers, well, no wonder, hinata is a gentle person...no wonder he himself became attached to her.
He also noticed, she always drank tea with milk, after breakfast, then she headed to the garden.
Sasuke watched her as she was taking care of the plants.
How she removed the sweat from her forehead.
She was indeed humble and gentle.
Sasuke walked over to her.
He handed her a bottle of water.
Hinata looked up at him.
"Sasuke kun..arigato..." she said as she drank water.
He bent over and took the shovel.
"Sasuke kun...you don't have to..." she stammered.
"I guess you need some help...." he said as he continued Doing what she used to do.
Hinata smiled, and he noted this smile, though he pretended he wasn't looking but he noticed.
The two of them kept gardening, and occasionally, their hands brushed and both hide their blushes.
Hinata broke the silence.
"Me and sasuke used to do this...before the incident" hinata said and then looked down.
That smile again.
Sasuke refrained from asking as he know the story...
But she continued regardless.
"I...i miss him..." she looked down.
Sasuke froze and felt the color drain from his face.
He felt jealousy, this burning sensation that he wasn't acquainted to, jealous from whom? Ironic, himself and her husband!
Sasuke looked down.
Hinata knew she hurt his feelings.
"Gomenne...sasuke..kun...gomenne..." she apologized.
Sasuke sighed then stood up.
"I need to shower..." and he left.
