Tonight was the night, it's been nine months exactly and he was ready for his beautiful wife to give birth to his little girl. He was certainly relieved that the little baby was ready to pop out, he was tired of the weird cravings, the mood swings, and the big odd pillow she slept with but at the same time he didn't want it to end. The way his wife waddles when she walks and how she tries to bend over to put on her socks and shoes before giving up and giving a cry of frustration before plopping down on the couch and pouting oh and the way she rubbed her belly and sung softly to the baby in her womb at night.
The raven haired man was pulled out his thoughts hearing his pregnant wife squeezing his hand so hard it was really painful. She had her eyes closed and sweat was on her neck and forehead making some of her hair damp but she couldn't look more beautiful.
"One more push ," the male doctor told the panting woman as he looked up from between her legs and felt kind of odd having some man between his wife legs acting like it was normal. He grabbed his wife's hand and bent down to whisper comforting words in her ear.
"You're doing wonderful, Kaori." He whispered as she fell back with a tired sigh and blew out a breath. The doctor came from the woman's leg with a baby girl in his arms and handed her over to the nurse who took off to clean the baby after giving it a smack on the bum to make her cry.
"How is she, Katsuro?" she asked her husband looking around for her newborn daughter. She turned to the nurse when she returned, the baby in her arms, she was cooing over how adorable she was.
"She's adorable," the nurse stated reluctantly handing over the baby to her parents who immediately began looking her over. The nurse smiled before walking behind the bed and pushed the bed, with the help of the husband, back to the room she was in when she arrived. The mother paid no attention to them and continued softly bouncing the baby up and down as the baby instinct grabbed her mother's finger. They were in the room, the mother had her legs up, and knees bent and had the baby leaning against her thighs. The baby had her unusual blue eyes on her mother and father, who was sitting next to the mother.
"She has my blue eyes." Katsuro commented kissing Kaori's temple. Kaori smiled and turned to look at her husband's face.
"She has my raven hair," she pointed out and Katsuro smiled. He reached out and petted his wife's hair and looked over at their child who had her eyes fixed on them.
"Hello," the couple turned to the nurse that brought them in and smiled in greeting.
"I know you guys have had a long night but have you figured out any names?" she asked when she reached their side. Kaori smiled at her husband who was staring at their baby girl lovingly.
'She already has him wrapped around her tiny adorable fingers,' she thought as she smiled at the nurse.
"Yes, we decided it a while ago. Kagome Aki Higurashi," the nurse looked over the baby and smiled. She wrote it down on the birth certificate before handing it over to the couple so they could sign it.
"Can I have her? I have to go and put her little baby hands on the certificate." She told the parents who looked reluctant to let their little girl go. The nurse, whose name tag read, "Izayoi," gently smiled.
"I understand and you're welcome to come with me, ." Izayoi informed him and watched how the parents breathed in relief. The father grabbed baby Kagome out of his wife's clutches and followed Izayoi out the door. They walked down a hallway, greeting a few nurses who began to coo over the adorable sleeping baby.
"She's just adorable." Izayoi told them as young Kagome woke up and stared at her with curious sapphire eyes. Something that threw Izayoi back, this newborn acted like a 5 month old baby. She shook her head as she gently took the baby's wrist and put it in the ink before pressing it onto the paper and repeating it to the other hand.
"Thank you, Izayoi." Katsuro smiled at the nurse as she washed his baby's hand off. Kagome began crying and then he looked alarmed. Izayoi placed a hand on his shoulder with a laugh.
"She's just hungry, very common for newborns." She told him as he grabbed Kagome from the counter and followed Izayoi out of the room and towards his wife's room.
" , it's time to feed your daughter," Izayoi strolled in and found the woman talking to some people. They all turned towards her and Katsuro. Izayoi's eyes were drawn to the woman who held a baby not so older than the newborn in Katsuro's arms.
"Izayoi I know we just met but this is my family. My sister Aimi, my niece Sango, and my brother in law Haruki. Taijiya's this is my nurse and new friend Izayoi and that bundle of joy in Katsuro's arm is our daughter Kagome." Kaori introduced and Izayoi smiled back while they gave their "hi" and "hello" to her.
"Kaori dear, Kagome's hungry." Katsuro repeated as he handed over little Kagome to the smiling mother.
"She's so cute," Aimi softly squealed as she bounced over and watched as her sister lowered her hospital gown and revealed her breast. They watched, not bothered at the sight of her sister's breast out, as the infant latched onto her mother's bosom. Suckling her mother's nipple with closed eyes as she fed on the milk. The mothers, including Izayoi, watched in awe at the cute baby ate.
"So you mind if we could meet after you get out, I'm sure my husband would be delighted to meet you," Izayoi asked as she watched the mother breastfeed her child, it was a beautiful and interesting sight.
"I would love that Izayoi," Kaori said smiling brightly with her beautiful chocolate brown eyes.
"I have to go now but I'll be looking forward to seeing you again," Izayoi said as she said her goodbye's and left the room with a smile on her beautiful face.
After Kaori was released they went home but not after taking some pictures with Izayoi. There was one with Izayoi holding Kagome, another with Izayoi and Katsuro, one with Kaori and Izayoi hugging each other with one arm and smiling at the camera, and lastly one with all three adult and the infant who was sleep.
Of course Izayoi got a copy of the pictures before the Higurashi completely vanished in thin air. Not one call or email, nothing at all. Of course Izayoi never forgot them and she often thought about them from time to time, especially their cute blue eyed daughter who she grew attached too. Kagome too missed Izayoi, though she was young and a baby, she grew close to Izayoi and cried each day she didn't see the woman again. The only way her parents got her to stop crying was to tape a picture of the woman in the crib.
