"Hajime!" exclaimed an out of breath mother looking down at her over hyper acted boy sitting on the floor in the back of the bakery. The boy looked up at his mother with his green eyes and a soft smile replaced his frightened one, after seeing his mother. His jet black hair spiked in different ways and his outfit was covered in flour but he had successfully obtained the cupcake he was reaching for on the counter.

The woman looked down at her son and couldn't stay mad at him for long as she giggled and knelt down in front of him. "Hajime, mommy told you to wait. I would have grabbed you one silly man, but I had to go see how the shop was running." Hajime only giggled and then broke apart a portion of the cupcake and offered it to his mother. Her heart almost broke seeing this before her, but it warmed her at the same time. She ate the piece he had offered her before she lifted him up in her arms.

Hajime stuffed the rest of the cupcake in his mouth quickly before his mother shook her head and smiled gently, "Come on Hajime we have to get you cleaned up before we meet your father." Hajime nodded and giggled as she started to walk off with him before Hinata walked into the back room and gasped at the scene before her. "Oh Mrs. Uchiha are you alright? Is Hajime ok? I am so s-s-s-sorry I should have been w-w-watching."

Sakuea waved her hand in front of her and smiled at her friend, "Do not worry Hinata, he is just fine. Being a little rascal as usual, I just have to get him cleaned up before we meet his father. Also Hinata you know you can just call me Sakura, you know that." Hinata blushed and nodded slowly as she held the tray close to her, "A lot has changed in 3 years hasn't it Sakura?" Sakura smiled and slowly nodded before she looked down at her 18 month old son.

"Indeed it has, it all seems like a dream but no matter how selfishly it sounds, I never want to wake up from it." She said gently before she leaned over and kissed her son on his forehead before he looked up at her and smiled. "Alright Hinata, I have to run home and get Hajime into some different clothes or we are going to be late. The bakery looks amazing as always I knew having you be a manager would help with your speak a bit. Besides Miss Tenten is always around to help you as well. Give her my best I am going to check in on Ino a little later at the other shop as well." Hinata smiled and waved at the two of them as they walked out, she could not believe that after working for Mr. Uchiha something like this would happen.

It had been three years since Sasuke and Sakura had made their wedding vows and during those three years it had been the happiest and saddest times for them both. They were tested and challenged like never before, Karin had not just disappeared as many had wanted her to. She had come back time and time again trying to blackmail Sakura, or put Sasuke in position of scandal. It had tested their marriage on many occasions and before long Sakura wanted nothing more but to take her down, and then all of a sudden the threats, scandal, Karin in general had stopped.

Sasuke and Sakura had tried to figure out what had happened but nothing seemed to explain her recent and sudden stop to all of it. Until about a week later a package arrived in the mail and inside that package it just had a fan of the Uchiha symbol with a note that simply said, "It's over. -I" After receiving that package Sakura assumed that Itachi had done something about it and after seeing Sasuke reaction she was positive it was him. Even if Karin had made the first years of their marriage difficult she was concerned as to what was done with her, but she didn't have time to waste on that because before long the strip turned pink. She was with child.

It was a blessing in a way, after finding out his wife was pregnant he became more involved with his wife's care more than ever. She had tried to tell him she was fine and not to worry about such things but he would hardly leave her side and she had attended business trips with him and gone with him to work. Although when she got further along he conferenced in on video so his wife didn't have to travel with their unborn child in her pregnant state.

When Hajime was born it was the most the couple could have asked for. They were both happy with the arrival of their baby boy and his already full head of hair of jet black hair. When deciding on a name that had chosen Hajime, because it ment beginning. This was their beginning with their son, a new chapter in their life began with him. They wanted nothing more than to continue their lives loving this baby and starting a family with him.

Sakura stepped into the mansion as the maids lined up and greeted her with a bow welcoming her home. The head maid Miss. Cecelia ran over to the two of them and looked at the boy covered in flour in her arms. "Now Mrs. Uchiha you go on and change your clothes as well and I will take care of your son, you don't want to be late now do you?" Sakura only smiled at her maid before politely shaking her head, "No thank you Miss. Cecelia I will change him and get him ready, I just need a change of clothes we shall be fine. Thank you so much." Cecelia nodded and bowed before letting her by, Sakura was grateful to the maids of their mansion but most of the time Sakura took care of her own child.

Yes there would be those times she just needed time to herself, or alone time with her husband but most of the time Hajime was always by her side. Stepping out of the elevator Sakura walked down the hallway and stepped into her sons room filled with a light green colors on the walls with accents of black. She had little elephants across the room painted on the walls and black furniture placed around the room. She wanted her child's baby room to be a little different from the others and she rather enjoyed her choice.

Hajime giggled and moved about while she tried to change his outfit and clean up his fingers and face, along with some of his hair. He had managed to even get cake in his hair at the same time as well, she smiled to herself and talked to her child as she placed on a white onesie, followed by black shorts with a green shirt to match his eyes. She picked him up and placed him on the floor in a standing position and walked in front of him before looking back at him, "Come on mommy has to change now, follow mommy to her room you can do it Hajime!" Hajime's eyes sparkled at his mother's words before he quickly ran after her into her bedroom. She walked in and just quickly grabbed a green dress herself that was strap less that fell a little below her knees. She placed on a black headband quickly and brushed out her hair before she grabbed her son in her arms and walked out with him to meet her husband.

Sasuke looked outside once more and sighed gently before glancing at his watch. He had called his wife to see if she was on her way and she had said she was just down the street. Over the past three years he had placed his family first and foremost in his life after seeing it almost being ripped apart from him. Sakura and Hajime were the most important people in his life and he was not going to let anything get in the way of that. He still had the reputation of being a cold hearted business man that made cut throat deals, but that was just a front. He wanted to show that even though he had a family he could still make good business deals but, it was always a warning in a way not to come near his family.

"Sasuke-kun!" His coal eyes looked up to behold his wife carrying their 18 month year old son, as his son spotted him his eyes lit up and he reached out his arms to his father. Sakura gracefully walked over and handed Sasuke, Hajime for which he took with a smile on his face. "How are you Hajime? Getting into trouble as always?" He said before he tickled his sons belly as he screamed in a fit of giggled and moved about.

"Hello darling, sorry we are late your son wanted nothing more than a cupcake. Which of course lead him to being covered in flour." She said gently as she leaned over and placed a kiss on her husbands lips and smiled down at him. "He did huh? Well thats my son, getting into trouble but he looks just fine no bumps or bruises this time." Sakura giggled before she sat down across the small table from her husband.

Sasuke positioned their child to sit on his lap before scooting the silverware out of arms reach he handed Hajime one of his favorite toys he began to play with. Just content in being in his fathers lap before Sasuke's attention turned back to his wife. "How is the bakery doing?" Sakura looked up from the menu and gave her husband a simple smilea s she replied, "Oh, it's just fine in Hinata's bakery they are making more this month probably because she is gaining more confidence in herself. While Ino's bakery is booming with her outspoken talk and the 'funny' arguments she has with Shikamaru."

Sasuke shook his head but grinned as he looked at his wife, "As usual I suppose, but I am glad they are doing well. Now a ball is coming up this weekend and I was not sure if you wanted to go, we can always reject the invite since I have done so many times before." Sakura only shook her head before replying, "No, I would love to go. We haven't had a date night in a while, and we can ask our group of couples to come with us."

Sasuke nodded and sighed gently, "Well with them it might be embarrassing to go, they always make such a scene." Sakura giggled and nodded slowly, "I know but that is what makes it such fun, right Hajime?" Hajime heard his name and looked at his mother before he nodded and clapped his hands to please her. Soon lunch came and went and once the waiter brought out their check Sasuke quickly paid and then thanked the waiter. As they got up to leave Hajime reached out his hands to the waiter, and both Sasuke and Sakura were surprised but Sakura let the waiter hold him for a moment.

The waiter looked down at the child as Hajime smiled up at him and reached up before patting his cheek. The man smiled and soon handed back the child to his mother, "Your son is very kind, and very strong." Sakura smiled back to the waiter and nodded, "Thank you so much, he does take after his father quite well." Sasuke arched a brow at Sakura before she leaned up and kissed his cheek, "Come on darling we need to get back."

Sasuke nodded and thanked the waiter before placing an arm around his wife and guiding them out of the restaurant. The waiter watched before the waitress walked up to him and smiled up at him, "Do you know them? I heard that was the Uchiha family, you know that rich guy? His son is so cute, don't you agree?" The waiter smiled and watched the three of them pass the window and nodded, "Yes they look like a nice family, I am glad everything is working out for them. Hajime was a blessing to them, a beginning for the rest of their lives. I am grateful to see them doing well and in love more than ever."

The waitress arched a brow and looked over at him, "Umm that's a lot to say about a family you barely talked to. Your a little strange, but oh well come on we have another table to wait on."

The waiter nodded and went back to work before giving one last look out the window with a smile on his face, Sasuke deserved happiness and he found it with Sakura. Now they both have happiness with their son, Hajime
