Two weeks passed and Shizuo was all moved in with them. Izaya got back from the store too with a home pregnancy test and sneakily handed it to Shizuo.
Shizuo smiled and thanked him before slipping to the bathroom. He was nervous. Now, they would see if they were having another kid or not. After a sigh, he took the test, and waited. Three minutes passed and...
"Positive..."
Izaya blinked, "Positive huh?" He was nervous... but excited too. They would do this the right way this time.
"Yeah." Shizuo smiled up nervously at Izaya. Another kid. This time, for them to raise together. Izaya wouldn't be leaving with this one. "Should we tell Shizuka now, or wait a bit?"
"Let's wait a bit," He chuckled, kissing Shizuo with a smile. "And this time we'll do this the right way too..."
"Yeah... Sounds good." He smiled again, less nervously now.
Izaya nuzzled Shizuo gently. "I love you... so much..." He grinned, touching the others cheek.
"You've told me before." Still, Shizuo smiled.
"I know... and I'm going to keep saying it~" Izaya teased lovingly.
The blond chuckled lightly before kissing Izaya. "I'm fine with it. And, I love you too." He really did.
Izaya grinned, "Ahh... Shizuka will like this I suppose..."
"Yeah. She will. Ah, let's get out of the bathroom now though."
Izaya grinned and took Shizuo's hand as they left. They were having another... another beautiful little child...
And this time, they wouldn't be separated. It was great. "Ah... I kinda want to tell Shizuka now..."
Izaya chuckled, "if you really want to," He agreed, "Ah... do you want to escape the city a bit again?"
Shizuo nodded. "Yeah. I do. It was nice and relaxing, last time. And I didn't have to worry about strange looks."
"Alright~" Izaya agreed. He still owned the other place though he hadn't been back.
Shizuo smiled. "Thanks Izaya. We can all go out there. A family thing."
"Yeah~" Izaya knew Shizuka would enjoy it though s school would be hard...
Shizuo stretched. "Well, all that's left is to tell Shizuka." He paused then, before raising his voice to call her. "Shizuka, come here."
Shizuka came running out of her room, "Yeah Mommy?"
"Ah... we have something to tell you sweetie~" Izaya said with a smile.
"Really? What is it?"
Shizuo smiled and sat down on the bed. "Well, Shizuka, you're going to have a little brother or sister."
She blinked, "Really?! Yaay!" She hugged Shizuo happily and Izaya grinned.
"Yes, really. But, it will take a couple of months."
"Nine moths more or less... okay sweetie?"
"That's a long time..." She pouted.
"It is. But after, you'll have your younger sibling." Shizuo smiled before ruffling Shizuka's hair.
"Okay~ I guess I can wait~" She agreed.
"We had to wait for you too you know~" Izaya said happily.
"Really?"
Shizuo chuckled at that before nodding. "Yes. Really."
But it's worth the wait~" Izaya said happily, nuzzling her hair.
"It will be!" Shizuka grinned before hugging them both again. "Yay!"
Izaya smiled as he pulled up to the country home, "We're here~" He said, hoping to wake the napping Shizuo and Shizuka.
At that, Shizuo stirred before blinking his eyes open. "Huh? We are?"
"Yeah... you two fell asleep..." Shizuka was still asleep so he would have to carry her into the house... that was fine though.
"Ah..." He yawned before unbuckling. "Let's go in. You getting Shizuka?"
"Yeah," Izaya moved their stuff first into the house and then went back for the sleeping girl. He carried her in after locking the car and put her into a bed in one of the spare rooms.
Shizuo smiled as he sat down on the couch. "She's adorable." And so would their second child.
"Yeah~, mind you with a mother like hers it would be hard not to have such a perfect little girl~"
At that, the blond blushed a bit. It was nice, like this.
Izaya grinned and nuzzled Shizuo's neck, "Ahh~ Shizu-chan you're so cute when you blush~"
That only made Shizuo blush more. "S-shut up Izaya." Still, he wrapped one arm around the raven.
Izaya chuckled... ah Shizuo really was adorable~ He couldn't get enough of it either.
Now, he closed his eyes, smiling softly. This was enjoyable. "Are we homeschooling Shizuka until we head back?"
"Yeah... I can do most of that though, don't worry~"
"I won't. And it's better that you do." He smiled a bit more. "Ah... Still tired."
"Want a nap?" He asked gently, smiling still as he rubbed Shizuo's back.
"Yeah. That'd be nice." He yawned again. Mostly, he was tired because he slept in the car. But also because of the pregnancy.
Izaya smiled, "If there's anything you want in particular for dinner when you wake up let me know okay?"
"Okay." He smiled again before making his way to the room he had last time and curling up to sleep.
Izaya got them unpacked and cleaned while the others napped.
Soon enough, a little before dinner time, Shizuo woke up. "Is Shizuka still sleeping?"
"Not for long..." Izaya said as he went to wake her. She wouldn't sleep at all if he didn't.
The blond chuckled as he took a seat on the couch and waited for the two of them to return.
Shizuka was rubbing her eyes sleepily, "Okay, dinner time, who wants what?"
"Hmm... I want curry. What do you want, Shizuka?"
Shizuka yawned before climbing into Shizuo's lap. "I want pancakes."
"Pancakes are breakfast food sweetie," Izaya pointed out.
"You can have pancakes for lunch and for dinner too, Izaya." Shizuo smiled lightly, defending Shizuka.
"Daddy, mommy says it's alright. So please?"
"We can't have both so pancakes or curry?" Izaya wasn't going to cook a different dish for everyone.
"I want pancakes..."
Shizuo sighed. He was in the mood for curry, but he didn't want to disappoint Shizuka. "Izaya, go ahead and make pancakes."
"You sure?" He asked, though it was probably pancakes... they both had a hard time saying no to Shizuka.
"Yeah. We can have curry tomorrow." It would really suck if he didn't want it then, but oh well.
Izaya chuckled, deciding to ask again tomorrow, "Pancakes it is~"
Shizuo smiled and Shizuka cheered. "Happy, Shizuka?" He could tell she was.
"Yeah! Pancakes are awesome! They're my favourite!" She chirped and Izaya chuckled as he got out what he needed.
Shizuo smiled a bit more before kissing Shizuka's forehead.
She beamed and grinned at him. "Okay, regular, chocolate chip, strawberry, banana or blueberry pancakes?" He asked as he measured dry ingredients out.
Shizuo blinked as Izaya listed off the types of pancakes he could make.
"Strawberry! Daddy, I wanna help!" She hopped off Shizuo's lap and ran to the kitchen, causing Shizuo to chuckle lightly.
"Strawberry it is~" He agreed, getting a stool for her to stand on so she could help out -Though Izaya did all the cutting, not willing to give a paring knife to a five-year old.
Shizuo was glad for that, and made his way to the kitchen to wait for dinner to be done. Both Izaya and Shizuka were cute, cooking together.
Izaya had her help measure some liquids and mix things together and soon there were strawberry pancakes in the pan.
"You two are cute, cooking together." Now, he actually said what he was thinking.
Izaya grinned, "Well of course we are~" He joked, "but Shizuka-chan is so cute she makes everyone around her look cuter too~"
Shizuo chuckled at that before closing his eyes.
Soon they were done too and Izaya dug out the blueberry syrup to go with them since it was better than maple when fruit was in the pancake.
Shizuo smiled as the pancakes were served. "Ah, they look really good."
Izaya chuckled as he served it up and poured milk for Shizuka, "Shizu-chan, you want milk too?"
"Yeah. I do." He smiled lightly before grabbing a few pancakes for himself.
Izaya poured his too then and got himself water.
While Izaya did, Shizuo got Shizuka some pancakes and cut them up for her.
Shizuka dug in happily with a grin, though she minded her manners too.
Shizuo smiled before eating as well. Though he had wanted curry, this was still nice.
The months passed as a blur almost and this time they decided to be surprised when the baby came. Izaya loved how Shizuo's body was changing again and he found himself remarkably aroused by his swelling abdomen. Time alone was harder though... but Shizuka slept like a log which was fortunate.
Soon enough, it was nearly time for the baby to be born. Meaning that it was time for Shinra to head over for the c-section. As with Shizuka, Shizuo was nervous, but less so than last time. This had happened once before, and this time, he wouldn't be left alone.
Izaya acted differently the whole pregnancy too... kinder and more interested in every process... because it wasn't about control now, it was love he felt for Shizuo, for Shizuka and for this new child.
When Shinra arrived Izaya let him in the house happily.
Shizuo smiled and Shizuka waved.
"So Shinra... Now?" He was glad. Now, their second kid would be born. Shizuka would have her sibling too.
"Yeah, it's time; Celty will stay with Shizuka, okay?" He said and Izaya nodded.
Shizuo nodded as well before pushing their daughter towards Celty. "Well, let's go. Same room as when I had Shizuka?"
"Yeah, that would be best," Shinra agreed. Izaya kissed Shizuka on the forehead and they went into the room. Izaya was assisting this time with what Shinra needed and that made him nervous as hell.
Shizuo, though, assured him that it was fine before laying down. "And now we'll know whether we're having another daughter or a son."
Izaya kissed Shizuo lightly before the curtain was set up and he was given morphine to block the pain.
It was something Shizuo was glad for. He didn't exactly want to feel the pain of being cut into for their child being born. Still, now he had to wait.
Shinra cut in and Izaya cut the cord though the whole experience was surreal to him. He wished he could hold the newborn longer but he moved aside and set him down to help Shinra with Shizuo once the infant began to cry.
When Shizuo heard the cry, he smiled. Just like with Shizuka, this child was alright. "Shinra... Izaya... Is it a boy or girl?" He wanted to know.
Izaya grinned and brought the newborn over once Shizuo was sewn up.
"It's a boy~" He said softly, grinning, "and he's perfect~"
At that, Shizuo smiled and held his arms out. "I want to hold him."
Izaya set the infant on Shizuo's chest in his arms gently while Shinra finished up.
Shizuo smiled softly as he gazed at his son. Really, he was adorable. Cute too. "Hi there, little guy..."
The baby was still crying with a healthy set of lungs though Izaya was grinning ear to ear and he loved seeing Shizuo so happy.
"Ssh. Ssh. No need to cry." He held the baby a little closer, trying to soothe his crying.
Eventually the infant hiccupped and settled down before falling sound asleep. "Should I get Shizuka?" Izaya asked softly.
"Yeah... Celty too. She'll want to see him. And Shinra should enjoy her company." Shizuo smiled, though, he was feeling a bit drowsy now.
Izaya got the other two so they could meet the newest member of the family and Izaya was more than proud of his new son too. Shizuka thought he was cute as a button too.
Which only caused Shizuo to smile more. "Here... Izaya, you should take him. I want to rest."
Izaya took him, "You sleep Shizu-chan... we'll be in the living room okay?" He said gently, kissing the blonde gently.
He nodded once before closing his eyes and drifting off.
"Daddy! I wanna hold him. Please?" Shizuka only asked once they had left the room so Shizuo could sleep undisturbed.
"Okay, sit down on the couch okay?" He instructed, "Now you have to support his head because it's too heavy for him right now..."
Shizuka nodded as she sat down on the couch and held her arms out. "Okay. I'll be super careful."
Izaya handed over the infant, though he adjusted her arms too before backing away so that she was holding him properly.
She grinned. "Ah. He's so cute! Daddy, have you and Mommy decided what to name him yet?"
"Not yet, but it'll take a while... we had months to pick your name because we knew you were a girl... and I named you after Mommy because I loved you both so much... but we have no idea what he's going to be called yet."
"Oh... Well he looks like you Daddy. His hair is black like yours... I haven't seen his eyes yet though, cause he's sleeping."
Izaya chuckled at that, "Well, you look like Mommy and he looks like Daddy... I guess it works ne~?"
"Yeah! Oh. Daddy, Daddy. We have to name him after you! Not your name, but something like your name! Because that's how my name is." Shizuka grinned at that.
Izaya chuckled, "Hmm... I think we can just think of his own name... not all kids have to have names like their parents~"
"Really?" She frowned as she looked down at him. "Um... Okay. Daddy? Can me and you think of some names while Mommy is sleeping?"
"Sure... but Mommy gets to pick since Daddy picked your name~" He agreed.
Shizuka nodded at that. "Okay. I'm fine with that. Let's pick out nice names and then Mommy can decide which one!"
Izaya had a few names thought up soon enough.
Shizuka had one. She was still just a kid. "I have one name. And it's Akio." She grinned at that.
"I likke that name~" He said, though Izaya's were 'Hibiya' 'Hachimenroppi' , 'Psyche', and 'Sakuraya'.
Shizuka smiled. "Ah, Daddy, you can take him now. My arms are tired." And now they just had to wait for Shizuo to wake up.
Izaya took the baby back, grinning at him, "Ah... two perfect little ones~" He said happily.
Shizuka giggled and laid down on the couch.
Izaya frowned, "Shizu-chan get your butt in a chair or bed, you shouldn't be walking right after surgery!" He scolded, handing the infant to Celty so he could force Shizuo into a chair.
"Sorry..." Shizuo smiled lightly as he sat down in the chair.
Izaya retrieved the newborn and handed him to Shizuo once he was settled, "There... he looks more like me..." Izaya said clearly happy one of his kids took after him.
"Oh?" Glancing down at his son, he could tell though. The hair was the same, and most likely the eyes. "It's nice."
Izaya chuckled, "Now we have one that looks like each of us..."
"Yeah... But he needs a name still."
"Well... Shizuka and I thought of a few if you want to hear 'em?"
"Sure. Sounds good." Shizuo smiled lightly as he held their son close. He'd pick whichever name he liked best.
"Akio, Hibiya, Psyche, Hachimenroppi and Sakuraya~" He said.
"Hmmm." Shizuo smiled as he thought about it. "I really like Sakuraya..."
"Sakuraya~" Izaya grinned, the name did flow nicely though it was a little feminine... he didn't care.
"Then that's his name!" Shizuka grinned as she climbed into the chair with Shizuo, so she could watch her new brother.
Sakuraya shifted in his blankets and Izaya grinned, kissing Shizuo lightly, "Ahh~, I love you Shizuo~"
Shizuo blushed lightly before smiling. "I love you too, Izaya."
