Chapter 1
Sleepness Nights
(Ikuto's POV)
I stared at our daughter, sleeping peacefully in her crib for the first time tonight. I glanced at the clock, 2 a.m. I sighed, and watched as Amu came walking into the room, she had dark circles under her eyes, and her hair was going in all different directions. She had a small stomach once more, she had no problem losing her pregnancy weight. She had on a pale yellow tnak top and some white shorts, she had on a thin robe and she looked plain tired. "Amu... you should go to sleep... I can watch her..." I murmured as she sat next to me, but she shook her head.
"No... you have to go to work and..." She trailed off, rubbing her eye gently. "You need your rest Ikuto..." she mumbled, and I sighed, pushing her down on the bed. As soon as her head hit the pillow, her eyes closed instantly. I smiled and lied down next to her, hugging her close. I looked at Aisha carefully. "You wake up, you're going to be sorry..." I muttered as I cosed my eyes and we both fell asleep.
(Another Note!: They both live in an apartment now, thankfully their friends helped them buy it. Ikuto is a musician! But he never goes on tour. The apartment consists of two bedrooms one bathroom a living room and a kitchen.)
The next morning
(Amu's POV)
I woke up at Ikuto's alarm going off, I sighed and nudged him, turning off the alarm clock at the same time. "Ikuto... wake up." I said, still tired since it was only eight thirty. He stirred slightly, and his eyes slowly opened. I looked over to the crib next to our bed, relieved to see Aisha still sleeping soundly. I stood and walked over to the crib, and I carefully began to move it, (it has wheels like a stroller) I slowly brought the crib into the kitchen and locked the wheels so it wouldn't move.
I smiled at Aisha, so relieved that she was still sound asleep. I started to get things ready for breakfast, and Suu appeared. "Need help Amu-chan desu?" Suu asked quietly, and I nodded, Ran, Miki, Kira, and Lulu floated out then, rubbing their eyes tiredly. They sat down in the crib around Aisha, and they smiled at her. Yoru soon floated out too, and Ikuto followed soon adter, his hair was dripping wet from his shower, and he smirked. "Wow... you are too young to be a house wife Amu." He murmured, and I blushed.
"Well... I have no choice." I said simply as I finished making breakfast thanks to Suu's help. We both sat down and began to eat, me faster than Ikuto just in case Aisha woke up.
After breakfast
Ikuto stood near the door, Yoru standing next to him. He was dressed casually, just some jeans and a T shirt, a sweat shirt covering it. I walked past him, and he captured my waist with his arms, and he pressed his lips against mine eagerly. I felt my cheeks turn bright pink as I slowly let my eyes flutter closed. He pulled away and smirked, and then he walked out of the door, and I sighed. I sat down tiredly, resting my head on my hand. suu began flying around, cleaning up. "Thanks Suu... but you don't have to do that..." I said quietly, watching as she began to dust and things became clean.
"I want to desu!" She said excitedly, and I couldn't help but smile. I heard a very light knock on the door, and I stood walking over and opening the door. There stood Nagehiko, he was smiling. "How are you Amu-chan?" He asked me, and I smiled weakly. "I've... been better. I'm mostly tired." I said quietly, and he nodded, walking past me and peering over the crib to examine Aisha. "She definitely has your cute looks Amu-chan..." He whispered, which caused me to blush slightly.
I walked over to his side and noticed when Aisha opened her eyes, and I tilted my head to the side. "But she definitely has Tsukiyomi-san's eyes." Nagehiko added, and I nodded, looking at her intese little eyes, they were cheerful, but yet they would be very easy to make anyone lost in them when she was older. I smiled, and she giggled, reaching up for Nagehiko, tugging lightly on his dark violet hair. He smiled and lifted her up gently, and then he turned to me. "Amu-chan, I can tell you want to relax, I can watch Aisha, why don't you clean yourself up? I bet it would make you feel better."
"Oh, thank you Nagehiko..." I hugged him carefully, trying not to squish Aisha as I went into the bathroom and began to take a long hot shower.
After showering
I walked out of the bathroom, my hair was brushed and looked healthy and natural again, and my whole body smelled like strawberries and chocolate. I saw Nagehiko sitting on the couch, Aisha in his arms and he was gently rocking her back and forth, I noticed a bottle in Suu's hand, and she brought it over to the kitchen. I got a bit closer, and Nagehiko was lightly humming, his voice sounded much like it did when he pretended to be Nadeshiko. I walked in and sat beside him, looking down at Aisha, her eyes were closed, and her breathing was nice and even. I saw Ran, Miki, Suu, Lulu, and Kira struggle to pull the crib out here. When they reached me they locked it and lied down in it themselves. I placed Aisha and watched as they all fell asleep.
"How have you been holding up Amu-chan...?" Nagehiko asked me quietly, and I shrugged. "I'm okay, I don't know what it is... I'm acting like a housewife..." I blushed slightly, and Nagehiko simply nodded, motioning for me to go on. "Ever since Aisha was born I've been acting that way... I haven't acted like a teenager for... 13 months..." I said, slightly bored with my situation. "Not that I regret having her or anything, I'm just... feeling like something is missing..." I said quietly, and Nagehiko smiled. "How about sometime tomorrow we take Aisha off your hands and you and Tsukiyomi-san take the day off?" I looked at him, my eyes bright with happiness.
"We being who?" I asked, slightly confused. He smirked, Nagehiko, smirked. "Oh, just all the former guardians and myself. We are going to watch Aisha for one whole day, and don't worry I won't let Hotori-kun brainwash her." He said with a gentle smile now. I hugged him tightly, and he hugged me back. "Oh thank you Nagehiko!" I whispered as loud as was possible without waking Aisha up. "I recommend you get as much sleep as possible, what time can I drop off Aisha?" I asked, pulling away to look athis reaction. "Hmm, what time are you waking up? It's Saturday tomorrow..." I thought for a moment.
"How about 10 o' clock?" He nodded, and smiled. "Ten sounds fine Amu-chan, see you tomorrow!" He whispered before standing and walking out of the apartment, I smiled widely, and hugged a pillow to myself. Finally, a day off... I thought happily.
6 p.m. Ikuto's coming home
I was standing at the stove, stirring some food which consisted of rice, steamed vegetables, and some broth cooking with the vegetables. I noticed when Ikuto opened the door, and I immediately ran over to him, jumping into his arms. Suu began to place the food on plates, and left the other four to heating up a bottle for Aisha. I felt him sniff at my neck, and I blushed. I pulled away and looked up at him, grinning widely. "How would you like to go out all day tomorrow? No baby, just us." I said, and his eyebrows rose. "How will we do that?"
"Nagehiko said he would watch Aisha, and convince the other guardians to watch her too." I replied almost instantly, and he smirked. Leaning close and kissing my neck. "I like it already..." I shivered and blushed deep red, and then pulled away, and we both walked to the table and began to eat happily.
