Neji looked at the others and raised his hand to knock on the door. “Come in!”
The four of them filed into Hiashi’s study. Hinata looked at Neji and her sister and they all bowed. “Otousan.”
Hiashi smiled at his daughters. Then he caught sight of Hanabi’s and Kiba’s hands. He sighed and motioned to the cushions in the corner. “Shall we sit? This looks like it’s going to be a while.”
Neji and Hinata exchanged looks. “Otousan…” she took a deep breath and leaned over to her father. “The walls have ears and we have a plan.”
Hiashi nodded. “I believe I feel like a walk. I have business in the market area. Would you like to join me?” He asked. They all, of course, readily agreed.

A few minutes later, they were outside of the Hyuuga compound and Hiashi put a hand on Hinata’s shoulder. He said quietly to her, “Are you happy, Hinata?”
“Hai, Otousan. Very. “ She smiled up at Neji and squeezed his hand.
“Then that is all I can ask.” They walked in silence the rest of the way into town. When they reached the small tea house, they all sat around the one table it had and Hiashi ordered tea for everyone. “Okay.” He looked at each face, his own a bit weary. “What is going on?”
Neji wrapped his arm around Hinata’s shoulders. “Hinata has agreed to be my wife.” He smiled down at her and kissed her gently on the forehead. She closed her eyes and smiled. He cleared his throat and they looked at Hiashi. “We…” he took a deep breath, “we just discovered from Aburame Shino that we are also expecting a child.” His hands came down to rest protectively over her abdomen.
Hiashi had to take a moment to recover, air seemed extremely precious, all of a sudden. He noticed Neji’s hands. “You are already….with child? That was…” he swallowed, “fast. How far, um….along are you?” He was clearly uncomfortable with the conversation.
“Only a few days, Otousan.” Hiashi breathed a sigh of relief, but then his face immediately switched to alarm.
“Hinata, if that is the case, you cannot fight.”
Kiba spoke up. “She won’t have to.” He cleared his throat, a blush staining his cheeks as the attention turned to him. “Sir, I would like to ask permission to marry Hanabi.”
Hiashi turned to the wolf-master, pinning him to his seat with a stare. He then looked at Hanabi. “Hanabi? Is this your wish.”
She smiled shyly and nodded. “I love him, Otousan. But just to be clear, we are not expecting.” She giggled a bit at the almost comic relief on Hiashi’s face.
“That’s good. I think I can only take so much at one time. I really wish your mother was here at a time like this.” He played with the tea cup that was set in front of him. The girls laughed. “But how will that change the fight?”
Kiba looked a little uncomfortable. “If I claim her as my wife, the elders can no longer force her to do anything. She will be of the Inuzuka Clan and no longer under the Hyuuga elders’ control. Sir, I’m not happy about pulling her from her clan, but it’s the only way I can protect her. And the only way we can see to keep them from fighting.”
Hanabi leaned her head on Kiba’s shoulder. “I truly do not want to fight Hinata, Otousan. Especially if she is carrying my niece.”
“Or nephew.” Neji mumbled, then leaned forward. “This would take away the elders leverage. If you were to allow us to marry – Hinata and I and Kiba and Hanabi – they would have nothing to fight with. They could not argue that any of the other cousins would be better able to take over. There is no precedent for that.”
Hiashi looked at each of the faces around him, his pride reflected on his face. “I am truly blessed in my children. We will need to plan the Leadership ceremony carefully, but I think this will work. In the meantime, I think it’s time to visit the Hokage.”

Tsunade stared for a moment at the group assembled before her. “You are the third and fourth couples to see me today about this. Ino and Chouji were here this morning to pick up their marriage license for their wedding in a couple of weeks and Lee and Tenten were in a few minutes ago to discuss wedding plans. Must be something in the water,” Tsunade mumbled and picked up her tea cup to take a sip. She looked down into it, sniffed it and set it back down, making a mental note to have the water checked. “I would be happy to marry you. This is awfully sudden. Have you thought it through carefully?” She turned first to Hiashi.
Hiashi nodded. “We have. There are some…political dealings within our clan that are about to become a problem. As you know, for now, at least—“ at this, he glanced at Hinata, “the clan is very close-mouthed about our internal dealings. However, these weddings will be able to take away some of the potential problems.”
Tsunade nodded and looked first at Neji and Hinata. “Politics aside – and I know quite well how nasty those are – do you want this?”
Neji spoke first. “We do. I had asked Hinata this morning to marry me. We had not, at that time, set a date or anything more concrete than her “yes”. However, we have since learned that we are pregnant and do not wish to take any chances with the baby’s life. The best way to reduce the chances of something going wrong is to marry.”
Tsunade did not miss how Neji said “we” when he mentioned Hinata’s pregnancy. “How long?”
Hinata spoke this time, “I haven’t been examined yet at the hospital, but it is only a few days, at most. Shino’s beetles found out this afternoon.” She blushed, knowing that she’d given away what she and Neji had done on the mission. But it was not to be helped. There were more important things to deal with right then.
Tsunade nodded and turned to Hanabi and Kiba. “Kiba, I understand a bit of the workings of the Inuzuka clan. Is Hanabi the one for you? And Hanabi, do you want this?”
Kiba spoke first. “Hai. If you understand that much, then you may already know that Akamaru can sense my…” he cleared his throat. “Mate. Hanabi is it.”
Hanabi blushed a bit, but spoke up. “And I love him. We would both have liked a bit more time, but we both also care very much for Hinata. If this will help to ensure that nothing happens to her baby, then we are happy to do it.” She squeezed Kiba’s hand.
Tsunade considered them silently for a moment before yelling, “Moegi!” A moment later, Moegi leaned in.
“Yes, Tsunada-sama?”
“Please bring me two marriage licenses.”
“Hai, Tsunade-sama!”
“She has spoiled me in Sakura’s absence. Sakura would have told me to write them myself.” She chuckled. “When would you like to do this?”
They all paused. Hiashi motioned the girls to go over to him. He looked from one to the other. “Will you at least allow me to see you in nicer clothes? Perhaps allow a couple of gifts from me? I am sure I can continue to delay the ceremony for another few days.”
Hanabi and Hinata looked at each other and nodded. They both hugged Hiashi at the same time. He was surprised, but hugged both of his girls back.
Tsunade gaped at the older man. She’d known Hiashi for a long time. This was very unusual for him. “We would like just a couple of days. Perhaps on Saturday?” Hiashi said over the heads of the women.
Tsunade nodded. “That would be fine. I’ll see you here at…” she glanced at a paper on her desk. “Eleven in the morning?”
Hiashi nodded. Hinata went back to Neji and Kiba took Hanabi’s hand as they filed out of her office.
* * *
Outside of the Hokage’s offices, Hiashi turned to his girls. “Please come see me tomorrow morning. We’ll make a few plans and I can give you my gifts.” He hugged each of them, then turned to go up to his house.
Hinata looked at Neji. “I need to speak with the seamstress. There isn’t much time.” He took her hand and they walked toward the market.
Kiba turned to Hanabi. “We should go see my mother. I haven’t yet told her. She doesn’t even know I’ve found my…” he gulped, “mate. I’m sorry, that must sound awful to you.”
Hanabi smiled at him. “No, it doesn’t. I understand. That’s the way your clan works.” She laughed. “I’m even looking forward to being part of it. Right, Akamaru?” She scratched Akamaru behind the ears and hugged him around the neck.
“Hey! Are you marrying me or him?” He teased. Hanabi laughed.
“Both of you, silly.” She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.
Kiba kissed her back. “Okay, we better go see my mother.”
It didn’t take long to get to the Inuzuka house. Kiba led the way to the back training area, where Tsume, his mother, spent most of her time. Kuromaru, Tsume’s companion, looked up and sniffed.
“Kiba. Hanabi, hello.” She puzzled over her son’s tense expression. “What’s wrong?” She sniffed the air.
Kiba took Hanabi’s hand and squeezed it. “Mother, I’ve found my mate.” He looked down at Hanabi, then back at his mother.
“Oh really?” The way Tsume moved was so smooth, almost stalking. She circled around them, sniffing. Kuromaro approached. He sniffed Hanabi carefully, then looked up at Tsume.
“She is his mate. Be nice, Tsume.” And he walked back to his spot in the sun and curled up.
Tsume seems almost disgruntled that she couldn’t poke further at them. “When do you wish to join?”
Kiba rolled his eyes. “We’ll be getting married, this Saturday.”
Tusme wasn’t surprised at the speed. That was normal for the wolf masters. Once they’d found their mates, there was no reason to wait. “Will you be marking then, too?”
Kiba tried to hold on to his patience. “I haven’t had much chance to explain it to her.”
Hanabi cut in, “it’s okay, I’ve read about it.” He looked at her in surprise, and she blushed. “When I started to notice you, I did some research. There were some books in the Konoha library about your clan. Anyway, I think it would be appropriate to do it at the same time, right?” She looked to Tsume for confirmation.
“That is usually how it’s done. I assume this will be at the Hokage’s office?”
Kiba nodded. “Yes. There are other reasons, besides those that are common in our clan, for marrying this quickly. The Hyuuga clan is facing some political struggles. Hinata is to take over the clan leadership soon and they want to force her and Hanabi to fight for it. The bigger complication is that Hinata and Neji are expecting. Hanabi wants to take no chances with her sister’s life. Or that of her child’s.”
Tsume nodded. “Then we will take care of it then.” She turned to Hanabi and smiled. “Welcome to the pack.” Kiba rolled his eyes.

It didn’t take long for Hinata to arrange for her wedding kimono for Saturday and the same lady would even be able to put together a formal kimono for Neji. Happy that they could put that much together that quickly, they headed to her house.
Once inside, the day started to take its toll on Hinata. She sighed as she sat back on the bed. She closed her eyes for a moment and was surprised when she felt Neji open her jacket and the top button of her pants and kiss her belly. She looked down at the top of his head while he kissed her. “Are you happy, Neji?”
“I would rather be able to give you a big beautiful wedding with everything to go with it. You deserve so much more than all of this rushing around.” He kissed her belly again. “But I would be lying if I said I wasn’t. We will be husband and wife in a few days and we are going to have a baby.” He looked up at her and the look of pure adoration took her breath away. “And you, Hinata?”
She paused a moment to say it all the right way. “When you explained what that…thing…was in your pocket this morning, the first thing I pictured was having a tiny version of you nestled against my chest, nursing him. It seems sudden if you don’t truly think about how long we’ve known each other. I think I liked you even when we were little. I didn’t understand the different facets of love then. I just knew I wanted to be around you.
“There were times we grew apart, but the last few years, we’ve grown closer than we ever were before. I couldn’t tell you exactly when I really started to fall for you. I only wish I’d paid more attention.” She sighed. “Yes, Neji. I’m very happy. Do you want more than one?” She asked quietly.
“Yes. I’d love to have as many as you want.” He smiled. “That will be up to you, though. I won’t make you go through more than you want to.”
She chuckled. “If you leave it up to me, we’ll have lots.”
Neji looked up at her and his face was serious. He moved up her body and kissed her thoroughly. “I would love to have a large family.” He began kissing her neck and ears. “Perhaps we should practice. We wouldn’t want to forget while you’re working on this one.” He chuckled.
She laughed delightedly and kissed him back. Their passion flared suddenly and their clothes were off before either knew what had happened. They celebrated the life they’d created, their lovemaking soft and almost unbearably sweet. He was incredibly gentle, caressing, kissing.
She wrapped herself around him, touching him with every inch of her body. They moved together, slowly, lovingly. Their hands grasped, fingers intertwined, lips met when their releases claimed them together.
