Your POV

Cold.

'It's so cold'

Everything feels so cold.

Panic starts to take over my body. 'My eyes. My eyes. I can't feel my fucking eyes' I start to hyperventilate, I feel so cold but I can't open or feel my eyes.

'Help me' I shout but the words won't leave my lips. My mouth. I can't open my mouth. I can't speak. My breathing gets harder. I can't breathe. I can't breathe.

"Y/n"

'Who's that' that deep voice is so familiar but I don't know who it is. I don't know anything at the moment. I just know I'm going suffocate.

"Y/n breathe"

'I CANT' The words still don't leave my lips and it's getting harder to breath.

"Mama you need to-"

"Y/N BREATHE"

The new voice gets cut off and I'm suddenly snatched awake and my eyes are open, and I can breathe.

I sit up gasping for air, clawing at my throat and blinking as if my life depends on it. And I can't feel how everything hurt, every single inch of me feels like it's on fucking fire.

"Y/n-Chan you can't scare us like that"

I look at where I think the blob of pink is standing.

"Sakura? Is that you?" My voice is so hoarse and quiet, it feels like I haven't spoken in years.

"Y/n-chan what's wrong? Can't you see me" I hear her ask, worry laced in her voice.

"No I can only see a blob of pink. Where am I?" I respond. Fidgeting with the soft blanket that lays on top of me. After sleeping sitting down against stone for weeks, the feeling of anything remotely soft makes me happy.

"You're in Konoha Hospital. You've been sleeping for a week, and I just found you about to suffocate yourself with your own hands. I couldn't even pull you back using ninjustu, I had to scream so loud the entire hospital heard me. You were screaming with your mouth shut. What was that about? Where you having a nightmare?"

It's getting easier to see her now, she's now a blob of pink and white instead of just pink.

"I-" I begin but I don't know what to say. What even was that?

"I don't know. I just felt cold, everything around me was so cold and I didn't know where I was. All I knew was that I couldn't breathe or open my eyes or even my mouth" I responded with a heavy sigh.

I let myself fall against the big comfortable pillow, putting my hands on my now gigantic belly. The realisation made me grin widely despite the immense pain that I was in.

"They've grown" I whisper loud enough for Sakura to hear me.

"Well duh, they're strong babies. They're your babies. They were protected by you, they just needed more nutrients and they were fine" she smiles.

I look at her and smile, 'this girl is truly amazing'.

I grab her hand, startling her, and holding it in mine.
