Featuring: Naruto, Sasuke, Sai, Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, Shino, Neji, Lee, Gaara, and Kankuro

Notes from the Batcave: for ✨this✨ request. Enjoy!

Naruto

“For me?” He asks, a bit confused as you hand him the gift, and he grins wide and bright when he pulls the scarf from the bag.

“WOW, this…” his heart is warm because he’s not used to people doing things like this for him.

His fingers run over the soft, woven fibers, looking over the stitches before his blue eyes settle on you, “you made this?”

You nod, “I did. I crocheted it for you.”

He pulls you into a tight hug and kisses your cheek, “Thank you. Seriously.”

Sasuke

He’s suspicious as he takes the crocheted hat from your hands, with the Uchiha clan symbol worked into the project at the front.

He clicks his tongue, “tch.”

You’re pretty sure he doesn’t like, he doesn’t say thank you or make any more comment on it, but you catch him wearing it once it gets cold enough outside, it becomes his go to.

“Oh, so you do like the hat I made you.”

“You… made this yourself?” There’s a quiet pause, “I’ll take care of it.”

Sai

He stares at the plushie you hand him for a long time, turning it over in his hands like he’s trying to find the secrets that live within the stitches. His expression unreadable at first, but then he softens.

“It’s… me?”

You can tell by the way he’s looking at it, and then looks to you that this is something he treasures.

He keeps it in his bag and then shows it to Naruto and Sakura like, “did I show you what she made me? I think… I love it.”

Shikamaru

You spent the better part of three weeks making him the cardigan he’s holding in his hands.

His fingers run over the yarn, taking in how you’d taken the time to study his clans symbol and work it into the cardigan.

“Must have been troublesome.” He offers but his cheeks are tinted pink. “Thank you, this is very… thoughtful.”

It’s soft, and warm, and it smells like you. It becomes his lazy-day go to wear. He wears it while cloud watching and playing Shogi. It’s even better because you made it for him, but he keeps that fact to himself.

Choji

You made this man a whole winter set, hat, gloves, a scarf, all adorned with Akimichi clan symbol.

Choji is so touched. He holds them like some sacred relic and looks at you starry eyed, “you made all this? For me? Really?”

He gives you the best bear hug, with his whole heart, “it’s perfect, thank you.”

Kiba

He’s laughing, in that joyful way he does, loud and grinning ear to ear.

“Babe, it looks like Akamaru!” He tells you showing his dog like you weren’t the one who painstakingly crocheted the plush, taking the time to undo stitches when marking didn’t look right, or the shape was off.

“I know, I made it that way on purpose.”

Kiba stops, looking from his dog to the plush to you, like you just told him something earth shattering, “wait, you made him? That’s awesome!”

He wraps you into a big hug and spins you, “thanks babe. This is great.”

Shino

You made him a cowl with a hood, and hand embrodiered beetles at the base, “because you like to stay covered.”

“You noticed my intrests, thank you.”

Shino isn’t the type to get emotional easily, but he takes your gift VERY seriously.

He keeps it in pristine condition and wears it on colder days in the winter, running his fingers over the little beetles ontop of the crocheted stitches when he thinks about you.

Neji

You crocheted him a scarf with the Hyuga clan flame.

He accepts it with quiet grace, but he’s visibly moved, “I… thank you. This is… more than I expected.”

It becomes his treasured winter accessory. Wears it with traditional Hyuga robes and thinks of you every time.

“You have incredible talent… and kindness.”

Lee

“I made this for you.” You tell him as you hand over the crocheted afghan with a pretty lotus blossom woven into the stitches.

He CRIES. Loudly. Dramatically.

“YOU MADE THIS WITH YOUR OWN YOUTHFUL HANDS?! I AM HONORED BEYOND WORDS!!”

He uses it every night. Every day. Drags it around the house with him. Does not go on missions though because it’s too precious to accidentally ruin.

“This gift shall fuel my training tenfold! You are my muse!”

Gaara

You give him a sand colored shawl to wear that you crocheted yourself, a heart hand embroidered into the corner of it. “while you work, I know your office gets cold.”

He just… stares at it. You think you’ve made a mistake. But then, He walks over and very gently hugs you.

“I… don’t know what to say. But I’ll keep it. Always.”

Gaara treasures anything handmade. He folds it neatly, places it in a drawer in his office, and wears it if Kazekage responsibilities becomes overwhelming. You ground him.

Kankuro

You took the time to crochet him a cat-eared beanie. It fit hit style you felt like and when you give it to him there’s another surprise tucked inside it.

“Yo, babe… you made this?” He tries to act cool, flipping it around in his hands. He’s fighting a grin. He favors to put it on and a small crow amiguri falls out. He fumbles, but manages to catch the surprise item before it hits the ground.

He’s staring wide eyed, jaw slack as he observes the mini-Crow. “… no way, you even got his faceplate details right.”

He turns away a little so you don’t see the smile tugging at his mouth. The beanie is permanently part of his wardrobe now. If anyone compliments it, he casually drops, “Yeah, my girl made it. No big deal.”

But internally? Screaming.

“Thanks, babe. Seriously… this is so cool. You always think of the coolest shit.”

And he puts the little Crow plush in his room, right next to his tools, like it’s watching over his workshop.

i still cannot believe that sakura and sasuke end up together. it's literally insane to me. naruto and hinata seems a little lazy and underdeveloped (like literally all the couples except maybe shikamaru and temari), but whatever, i like hinata and i do think they're cute together. i despise how the ending turned all the women into basically housewives but, like, again not the point

sasuke and sakura feels like a hostage situation. literally any woman besides sakura would have felt more believable. it feels like best case scenario sasuke just looked around and went 'who will have my kid and put up with me being a deadbeat. the desperate fangirl who's feelings for me i've never respected? okay whatever' and it's also like. sakura girl stand up. you're not twelve anymore. literally name one thing about sasuke you actually like. what are we doing

alternatively: your partner's love language and how they express their love to you.

Sasuke Uchiha

He isn't the kind of guy to outwardly dote on you.

He's never been good with words or physical touch, more so preferring quality time together. You sleep in the same bed, eat meals together when it's convenient, and lounge around together when time allows.

When you come home from a last minute doctor's appointment with some big news, none of that really changes.

He assures you that he's happy, that he loves you, and this is all wonderful, but that's about all you're going to get out the emotionally constipated man.

However, while words may not be his strong suit, actions certainly are.

It's become painfully obvious that you are never allowed to go anywhere alone ever again.

He's like a shadow, following you everywhere and anywhere you decide to go. It doesn't matter that you're just running to the market- he's coming with. Ino invited the girls over for a dinner party? Cool, he'll walk you there, hang around in the shadows outside, then walk you home.

When questioned, Sasuke only says that he doesn't trust other people. Already knowing how he is, you don't push him any further. (Not that he'd entertain you if you did.)

People notice pretty quickly. He's not subtle and it's not exactly common for the Uchiha to be so openly clingy.

You wanted to keep the pregnancy a secret for a little while longer. You knew that his status would make the whole thing bigger than you'd like and it was still so early, only about eight weeks in. But people were becoming more and more insistent with their questions.

"Seriously, did something happen? He's been watching you like a Hawk for the past month."

"It was cute at first, but now it's straight up creepy."

Sakura and Ino dramatically shiver at the notion. You laugh, imagining how unsettling this all must look from the outside.

"It's fine, I promise. He's just been a little overprotective since he found out I was pregnant."

They don't register it at first. They just nod in understanding and move to sip their tea. You can almost see it click in their heads before they slam down their cups and start freaking out.

"Wait, WHAT?"

Naruto Uzumaki

"Congratulations! Based on the ultrasound, I'd say you're about five weeks along. It's still early, but you can see a tiny sac right here-"

Your mind is going a thousand miles a minute, thinking of everything and nothing as the doctor points out the tiny, centimeter-long blob in the picture.

Naruto had been bugging you for the past three weeks about a smell. He swears it's nothing bad, just that Kurama is insisting that your scent has changed and- blah, blah, blah. You never could get any more information out of him, which just left you to eventually cave and visit the doctor. Animals have instincts for a reason and who were you to ignore them?

Turns out, that damn fox was right.

After a half-hour lecture on what you can and can't do anymore, you were handed a goodie bag of essentials and sent on your way.

You barely remember the walk home. Your mind was completely blank as it tried to process the news. It wasn't until Naruto was standing in front of you in the doorway to your home that you finally snapped out of the trance.

You stared up at him. His eyebrows were knit together and he was asking if everything was alright. He pulled everything out of your hands and not-so-gently set them on the floor.

"I'm pregnant."

His eyes blew wide and not even a second later he was smiling, pulling you into him and spinning you around. It's over just as quickly as it started. He's setting you back down on your feet and looking you over, mumbling a few hollow apologies for manhandling you. He takes a deep breath, that lopsided grin on his face never leaving.

"You're pregnant."

Just those two words have all the fog clearing from your head. Reality is forced onto you in an instant. In any other situation, it might have made you dizzy, but right now you couldn't be happier.

"I'm pregnant."

Shikamaru Nara

He really should've seen this coming.

Honestly, with how careless he is with protection, it's a wonder how you hadn't gotten pregnant sooner. A year and some change of not bothering with condoms and lazy, half-assed pullouts had finally come to bite him in the ass.

Although he knows this is all going to be horrifically bothersome, he can't find it in himself to be all that bothered. No, not when you're standing in front of him so nervously, little tears gathering on your waterline as you hold out a slip of paper for him to take.

He pulls you into a hug- a very tight, very intimate hug. One of his hands is on your lower back, pressing you into him, and the other is in your hair to cup the back of your head. He can feel the stress start to melt from your body as you relax into him, your arms moving to loosely hold him back.

"I'm sorry. I know this wasn't exactly planned..."

It definitely wasn't planned. He didn't like to think about things too hard. The only talk about the future he'd engaged in was a brief confirmation that you were both interested in pursuing each other exclusively and that neither were against marriage and kids.

But even though this was sudden and unprompted and definitely not what he was expecting when you asked to talk with him privately, he just couldn't find it in himself to be anything other than pleased. Sure, he would've liked to wait a few years and it preferably be after he'd properly proposed and married you, but none of that is deterring him.

He loved you. He didn't say it as often as he probably should, but that didn't make it any less true. You were easygoing and passive and fit into his life with no resistance. His friends liked you, possibly more than they did him. You liked to cook and he never had to worry about you causing trouble.

This was fine.

Not troublesome in the least.

"No, this is... good."

Kakashi Hatake

He was positive he was sterile. He'd have to be after all the injuries and trauma he's sustained, right? Four years and not a single scare, yet here you were, apparently three months pregnant, handing him a report from the OB's office.

He couldn't even form a sentence. He just sighed and sat back onto the couch with his eyes closed. It's only eight in the morning, it's too early for this, not that there'd ever be a great time.

"I knew you weren't going to be thrilled, but now I'm starting to get nervous. Can you please say something?"

He held his arm up and gestured for you to come towards him. When he could feel you brush against him, he grabbed your wrist and carefully yanked you onto his lap. You let out a relieved, albeit hesitant, chuckle as he slowly wrapped himself around you, his head finding solace in the crook of your neck.

The two of you stayed like that for a little while until he let out the loudest, most dramatic groan you'd ever heard leave his mouth, followed by a mumbled 'are you sure?', to which you rolled your eyes.

"Yes, I'm sure. Here, you can see for yourself."

You unfold the paper and pulled out a few pictures. He shifts you around so you're at a better angle before he takes them into his hands. It's obvious that he has no idea what he's looking at- just that the blob is already baby-shaped and very, very intimidating.

You point out some of the obvious things, the head and feet and such, before moving down to the very last photo at the bottom.

"And that little spot right there means that we're having a boy."

"I thought they couldn't tell the gender until later."

"It is later, Kashi. Fourteen weeks."

He lets you take the pictures from him so he can set his hand on your stomach. You'd mentioned gaining a little weight recently, which he honestly hadn't noticed, but now he's wondering how he could've missed it as he brushes his fingers over the slightest most obvious bump in your usually flat stomach.

He must've been zoned out for too long, because you're calling his name and setting your hand over his. He hums, a slight acknowledgment that he's heard you, but you know he's not actually listening.

He's too busy thinking about diapers and bottles and late nights and early mornings. How his son is going to be in the same class as his student's kids. How Gai is going to be a hundred times more annoying in the coming years.

But then a single thought completely derails his spiraling. He wonders what your baby will look like. If he'll be a morning person like you or like to take naps like him. If they'll accel in genjutsu or not, because while he certainly does, you most certainly don't.

He's spent time with Kurenai and Mirai. While raising a person definitely seemed difficult, he couldn't deny that Kurenai was happy. Actually, despite Asuma's untimely death, she's the happiest he'd ever seen her.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, just... thinking about how annoying it'll be to tell everyone we're expecting."

"Seemed more like panicking to me."

𐙚 plug!shikamaru x fem!reader, frat boy!neji x reader , lowkey reader x everyone | Next Chapter | divider by @/cursed-carmine

𐙚 synopsis: where the pretty girl around campus meets the campus plug, who just so happens to be in the same frat as her best friend…who she fucks occasionally

Nothing stressed you out more than the shit you had to do around campus. You weren’t even that busy, but others would say the opposite. Which…you guess was true. If you weren’t working your campus job or running your student organization, you were out with your friends doing who knows what.

On some days like this, you’re walking around the busy campus of Konoha University bored out of your mind. You think of the things you could be doing right now: Library? No, you just left there. Courtyard? You can’t sit still.

“Fuck man.” You sigh. You walk through your normal campus spots, a nice bench in the bushes catches your eye so you sit for a moment. It’s a sunny day, you were thankful for that. You’d rather be bored when the weather is nice instead of how cold it was just a few weeks ago.

You sigh again, body relaxing as you’re surrounded by the leaves and flowers. You were also hiding from people on campus. Not that you hated being social but you knew a lot of people. It was a tiresome thing saying “hey! how are you?” every other place you went. You go over your mental checklist:

Anti depressant check

Something to eat so Neji won’t chew you out check

a bit of schoolwork… 1/4 assignments but still something check

You groan loudly. “I’m so fucking bored.” You whip out your phone to text one of your best friends, Neji Hyuga. You had a decently sized friend group, you knew a lot of people after all, but your inner circle was your heart, and everyone was queer- life was beautiful. There was Neji who you’ve known since freshman year. You considered him your best friend, you did almost everything together. He was also a busy man considering he was frat president of Kappa Konoha. There’s Naruto and Sasuke who you’ve also known for that long-they’re dating, and Sakura. They all share an apartment. Sai, you have the most classes together since you both have the same major. You’re art kids after all. And lastly, Temari, you became friends under a really strange circumstance but you’ve been attached at the hip since.

To Neji: Please tell me you’re free. Free me from my boredom please please please

from Neji: Why ask if i’m free if you know my schedule?

to neji: i was hoping there was a slight change 😞

from neji: right. there isn’t. i’ll pick you up later okay? we can go get slushes

to neji: can we have sex too?

from neji: of course.
