"Hurry up, Namikaze Minato!"

The said-blonde let out a frustrated sigh, before he quickly grabbed his robe.

Five months have passed by, in the blink of an eye. A month after the news, Minato had prepared a quick wedding for he and Kushina. It was just a simple wedding wherein they exchanged their vows in front of the Sandaime Hokage, who wedded them.

A couple of their friends were invited and came. Jiraiya-sensei, Kakashi-chan, Itachi-kun, that weirdo Mikoto, the bastard Fugaku, the goddamned Hiashi Hyuuga (who had been in a genin team with Kushina and Fugaku), their families, and other clan friends.

The next two months, Kushina started getting weird cravings (a usual pregnancy symptom), but her cravings were.. err.. Minato'd just say that disgusting would be much of an understatement. He would've been delighted to say that her cravings were atleast attainable, but she had asked him to add ice cream and strawberries as toppings for her ramen. Who does that!?

Once, he had even caught her drool over the dog food that Inuzuka Hana was feeding her mother's canine companion, when they came across them in the park.

"Minato! What's taking you so long?"his wife's shout snapped him out of his thoughts and reminded him of today.

Ah, that's right.

Since it has already been five months, Uchiha Mikoto had just given birth to her second son yesterday.

And since he is the hokage and her former teammate, he has been invited to their household today, along with Kushina, who is Mikoto's supposed bestfriend and Fugaku's former teammate.

He thought of rejecting the invitation as a sign of respect for the Uchihas' privacy.. and besides, he'd rather not spend a day bickering around with the Uchiha and Hyuuga clan head.

But of course, his wife (wow, it still feels strange calling her that) wanted to go, saying how she's even more of a sister to Mikoto than the other Uchiha women could ever hope to be.

So, now, here he was..

"Remind me why I have to be here, again?"

Minato turned to see Hiashi, along with his also-pregnant wife.

Wow, he was just about to say that, but the Hyuuga clan head took the words right out of his mouth.

"Hiashi, your former teammate's wife had just given birth to their second son. You should be there to support them, and besides we were invited,"answered Hanami, Hiashi's wife.

"Ah, Hiashi-kun, Hanami-san!"Kushina called as she grinned at them widely, making the Hyuugas glance at them with their pupilless eyes.

"Kushina-san, kon'nichiwa,"greeted the female Hyuuga as she smiled softly towards the redhead.

"geh.."muttered Hiashi as he averted his eyes, trying to ignore her.

"Oi, what's with that 'geh', huh, dattebane!"Kushina immediately challenged, making him roll his eyes at her whilst Minato sighed beside her.
