Authors Note: ( Please Read: Okay I'm going to keep this brief as possible lol I do not have internet still but I'm using this random link I found that's really faint like so bad that I have to stand and hold my laptop up.
Plus Mother Nature has finally kicked in so if the story starts to seem 'aggressive' it's because my emotions are off whack majorly. I might come back and change something's later when it's over.
I did go back and fix my millions of mistakes and even changed something's around to make it make more sense. They aren't major changes though just little notes that don't affect the now accept one part but that's barely noticeable when you read it hopefully. Hope you enjoy and sorry for the wait.
PS: Apologies for the large GAPS at the ends! I'm rushing to get these out before the connection dies again. )
A hidden sun blocked out by white fluffy misshapen clouds backed up with vast baby blue was reflected from the office window to give the room very dim lighting. The city below looked more busy than usual with snow everywhere on the many tall building tops and window panes. The perk for being up that high though was actually the sound.
You could hear absolutely nothing going on below unless something exploded. The two adults in the office thought themselves lucky for that. For their son would have woken up in a heartbeat if he heard roaring car engines and the obnoxious everyday lives of people passing by.
Said child was asleep on the couch facing away from his parents. He was curled up in his dad's blazer with his head resting on his 'mom's' jacket that had been folded up to be a pillow.
"He's awfully small." Sasuke said thoughtfully as he tapped a pen to his lips with a document held in the other.
"Is that a problem?" Naruto asked sarcastically from the floor. He'd been putting up Minochi's toys and was almost finished.
"No? He's just small for his age besides his behavior."
"I hope you're not one of those people that want the perfect child?"
Sasuke just grinned and shook his head before responding with, "Not at all, you know me better than that."
"Well Sasuke you should know that every child is different, plus this wasn't a 'normal' birth." Naruto actually sounded insulted for some reason despite what the raven had said. He got up from the floor and placed the bag of toys on the right side of the couch. For some reason he was extremely thirsty so he walked over to the water fountain.

Sasuke looked up over his paper and watched.
"No need to get defensive over nothing."
"Mhm, fuck you."
"If that's what you want." Sasuke sighed and placed his pen and paper on the desk neatly. He then got up and walked over to the blonde that was dousing down water as if it was a contest.
"Keep your hands off Uchiha." Naruto tried to shrug the man off but he was doing it so lazily that he ended up just snuggling into his arms instead. He dropped the cup in the trash ben near the fountain after he'd given up.
"What's with the hostility all of a sudden?"
"Well everyone comments on his height, the way he acts and all this other bullshit. You know the doctor told me that he wouldn't make it through the night when I had him? He went into full detail of why and how which basically came out as some religious rant. You should have seen the shock on his face when he did. I switched doctors the next day out of fear that he might hurt him. And so here we are. He's perfectly healthy too! He's growing slowly but still..." Naruto stared at the water fountain with depressed thoughts taking over his usual optimistic mindset as well as a weird feeling in his stomach.
"You know I hate normal people so I'm happy Minochi is the way he is. He reminds me of you allot sometimes." Sasuke said with a kiss to the blonde's shoulder.
"Are you kidding me? Guess what I caught him eating when he learned how to open the fridge?"
"What?"
"Tomatoes...Out of everything in that fridge-No, don't laugh, listen. Out of everything in the fridge he picked tomatoes, and I mean there was cake, pie, apples and all other kinds of food. You want to know the reason he picked it?" Naruto craned his neck to look back up at him.
"What?" Sasuke asked and smiled down at the man in his arms.
"Sweet. They tasted sweet to him. I almost died. I could not believe my son had the awful taste buds of my ex. So you can imagine my surprise when he told me he liked chocolate."
"Okay that's a little weird."
"Just a little."
The two shared a moment of mirth before lightly kissing each other for a brief moment.
"Well he is a mixture of both of us so that alone explains allot."
"Hm, I suppose so." Naruto rested against the man and thought about it till out of nowhere that weird feeling in his stomach turned into a sharp searing pain that caused him to bend over and clutch at his sides.

"Naruto?!" Sasuke supported the blonde the best he could from keeling over to the floor.
"I-I need to go to the bathroom!" Naruto gasped out as he gripped the fabric of his red shirt over his abdomen. The knife like pain just kept going on and on threatening to make him scream.
"I'll take you there." He hooked the blondes arm around his shoulder.
"W-What about Minochi?!"
"He'll be fine. I'll lock the door, come on." Sasuke helped his not so much an ex along out the mirage doors and locked it behind him.
In the elevator Naruto was crying and groaning as if someone was literally tearing his insides apart without remorse.
"Naruto what's going on?!" Sasuke inspected him to see the pain was obviously coming from his stomach.
"Just get me to the bathroom please!" Naruto cried out through tears and intakes of air.
The raven quirked an eyebrow at this sudden secrecy as the elevator dinged and stopped at Floor #8.
"You're going to have to tell me what's going on sooner or later you know that right?!" He helped the blonde out of the elevator and down the hall pass the worker filled cubicles.
"Please just hurry!!" Naruto sounded as if he was about to die at any moment.
The employees couldn't help but peek out of their workstations and offer their assistance. It was unusual to see Sasuke down amongst them unless it was serious. Their boss just told them to get back to work without a glance.
"Naruto?! Holey shit you look like hell, are you okay?!" A familiar employee named Akimichi Choji was nearby a snack machine when the two had made a right his way.
"Get back to work Choji!"
"First name basis? Is everything okay?" He watched the two head straight for the bathroom instead of fill him in on the problem.
"No, don't come in! I got it!" Naruto involuntarily pushed Sasuke away. He made it inside the bathroom in time to lock the door so the brunette couldn't force himself in.
"Naruto!" Sasuke banged on the door once out of fear more than anger. He started to breathe heavily before he looked around to see all the curious eyes on him.
"What?!"
That was enough to send almost everyone back to work immediately.
Sasuke mercilessly raked his fingers through his hair out of frustration while he paced back and forth in front of the door.
~oOOo~
'No, no, no!' Naruto wailed in his mind. He'd picked the stall farthest away from the door so Sasuke couldn't hear him hopefully. With both hands gripped onto the toilet seat he had no time to get comfortable on his knees.
Naruto hurled his lungs out and he was sure Sasuke must have heard him. Thankfully he couldn't see it. It wasn't your typical vomit like most people. No, this was blood. Pure salted crimson that we all know should stay inside unless you're a woman unfortunately.
The blonde freaked when he saw the rose colored water. He started to hyperventilate till another wave came. This time it burned more than before. His insides were on fire and he felt as if all life was being drained out of him. There was usually never a second round. Hell this wasn't supposed to be happening as far as he knew at this point.
He started to cry harder as his stomach calmed down. The pain was damn near unbearable and his throat felt almost raw. He managed to wipe the residue from his mouth before flushing the toilet to clear the evidence. If anything he didn't want Sasuke or Minochi to know. He brought a hand to his lips while he tried to stand up with the support of the toilet.
"E-Everything is f-fine...I-I took all of them..." Naruto thought aloud with panic in his voice. He stumbled to the sink and turned the knobs for the faucet with trembling red coated fingers. With some soap from the dispenser nearby he washed his hands the best he could despite the shaking.
He kept telling himself over and over again that everything was okay while his insides started up again to scream back otherwise. His vision started to blur after he turned the faucet off. He blinked unsurely at his wet hands when he started to see double.
Naruto looked towards the door before dropping to his hands and knees. His whole body was starting to fully give out on him. He started to crawl with his remaining strength and unclear vision. The door seemed to be getting further and further away and reaching out made it worst.
"SASUKE!!" He screamed as loud as he could with his last breathe until he fell unconscious into the void.
