Legacy of a Senju (Sequel)

Chapter 74 🌙

Haru's POV

A part of me still thinks I'm dreaming when I feel a hand on my head, running it's fingers through my hair and lulling me even further into my comfortable bed.

This suspicion of mine only grows when I hear my name being called. "Haru?" The voice asks slowly, and I sigh in contentment at the sound of my boyfriend's voice.

"Haru wake up." The voice calls out, only this time a bit louder and less soothing, and the hand that was stroking my hair has stopped completely.

Realizing that something isn't right with my dream, I languidly open my eyes.

"Sasuke?" I murmur, my eyes instantly meeting the onyx ones I love so much. He's standing there, crouched by my side of the bed so we're practically face to face.

The moonlight shines through the window and bounces off of his pale skin beautifully, giving me the clue that it's still nighttime.

"Hey." I whisper before reaching my hand out to his face and brushing his bangs away from his forehead. "You had me worried." I admit, letting go of his face and opting to sit up from the bed.

Sasuke stands up and kisses me on the forehead, not saying much of anything when he separates from me to go to the bathroom.

I watch the door close from behind him and I sigh, bringing my hands up to my eyes to rub them tiredly.

A part of me just wants him to come back to bed and fall asleep so that we could talk in the morning, and another part of me becomes nervous because our son is in the room across the hall and he doesn't even know it yet.

He walks right back out of the bathroom, shirtless and washed up from the shower he just had and I can't help but eye his eyes suspiciously. He slowly gets in bed right next to me and lays down, bringing the covers up to his hips and sighing.

I'm quick to move so that I'm sitting directly on top of his hips, and I lean down so that our faces are inches apart

"You had me so worried I had to sleep with your memorabilia on cuz I was scared you wouldn't come back! Are you gonna tell me how it went?!" I ask suspiciously, and Sasuke rolls his eyes at the childish look on my face.

"I'm serious!" I exclaim, quickly lifting myself from him to turn around and show him the back of my shirt, which is well, his shirt, and the Uchiha crest on its back.

"I wouldn't wear such an inferior shirt if I wasn't worried"-

What I hadn't noticed was the way Sasuke's eyes darkened at the sight of me wearing his very oversized shirt with seemingly nothing but a pair of small shorts underneath.

He sits up and uses his strong arms to swiftly place me back on his lap in a straddling position, and I pout at the interruption. "What? Getting tired of me trashing on the crest? Well I'll never stop."-

It's obvious that he really doesn't care about anything I'm blabbering as he brings a strong hand up to the back of my neck and pushes me down towards him so that my lips meet his. The kiss is sweet and short, mostly because I pushed myself back up before anything could escalate.

However, I do blush slightly when I feel him bite my lip softly as I pull away.

Who does he think he is?! We have important matters to discuss!

"Hey don't interrupt me! Just tell me what happened!" I whine, slapping his chest playfully to which I notice the corners of his lips quirk up the slightest bit.

"Alright, but then you tell me what happened in Kirigakure." He reasons, his hands settling from running up and down my thighs to my hips as he talks.
