Summary:“Dad. That is the ugliest shirt I’ve ever seen.” A young, high voice rang out, cutting through the din of the room.
Sasuke, six years old and usually quiet, sat on his adoptive father’s lap, chubby finger pointing straight ahead so there could be absolutely no doubt who he was referring to. His older brother Itachi, age nine, sat on a chair beside them and stifled the laugh brewing in his throat with one hand while the other went to quickly cover Sasuke’s mouth, earning him a lick to the palm and leaving Kakashi with two disgusted, bickering children, absolutely fucking mortified.
