Chapter 25

Hinata heard the annoying buzz of her cell phone .She reluctantly pushed herself off Gaara's chest praying that he wouldn't wake up. Gaara mumbled incoherently and turned and went back to sleep. She was glad he was sleeping properly nowadays. She pushed herself off the bed and took her cell phone and walked into the hall not wanting to wake Gaara up.

She looked at the time it was two fifteen in the morning .She blinked to remove the sleep from her eyes and looked at the phone. It was Neji, she hoped everything was fine.

"Neji nii san is everything…..

"Hinata .. Nami… Baby…"Neji had cut her off. From the sound of his voice it sounded like he was hyperventilating

"Nii san is Nami chan having the baby? Which hospital are you going to?"

"Konoha General"

"Is Nami chan okay?"

"Crap I left her at home…."

Hinata just stared at the phone she had never heard her nii san so clueless and scared. She quickly dialed her father's private number and informed him of everything Neji said or at least what she understood and told him to bring Hanabi and meet her in the hospital.

Once she was done informing she let out the squeal she was suppressing the moment she heard Nami was in labor. She quickly rushed to the bedroom pulled on jeans and a t-shirt all the while trying to wake Gaara up. Gaara glared at her and got dressed .She was literally bouncing .She couldn't believe it she was going to be an aunt. There was going to be a tiny little Hyuga born today with chubby cheeks and little feet and hands. Just thinking about it was making her all giddy.

She forced Gaara to speed and they made it to the hospital. Hinata rushed to the reception and asked for Nami's room number.

"I am sorry ma'am but there is no record of Nami Hyuga"

"Are you sure? Can you try once again?"

The reception once again typed in the details and shook her head "Sorry there's no record"

Hinata was just about to dial Neji's number when she heard his voice .She looked at the entrance to see Neji looking completely harassed followed by Nami who was waddling. Gaara soon got an empty wheelchair and both of them went to the entrance. Nami gingerly sat in the chair and glared at Neji before breathing in deeply.

"Thank you Gaara glad to see not all men are useless"

Neji in all his 'excitement' didn't seem to be too bothered with Gaara's presence. He quickly got her checked in and a nurse came to take them up to a private room. The doctor was a tiny little old woman who shooed them all out and started talking to Nami.

She introduced herself as Arai Chika to Hinata and Gaara and answered all of Neji's rapid fire questions. Nami wasn't dilated enough she was only five centimeters .She allowed Neji to enter. Fifteen minutes later Hinata went in and gave Nami a glass of ice chips, they talked for some time. Neji kept hovering over . Finally she left both of them alone Neji was coaching Nami helping her relax.

"How is she?" she looked around to see Gaara leaning against the doorway.

"You father and sister are here they came when you were inside"

She nodded and went into the waiting room and greeted her father and sister.

"So how is she?"

"Fine I mean as fine you can be when you are in labor .The doctor came in ..... there doesn't seem to be any complications.

"I want to see them"

"Hanabi sit down do not go barging into rooms. Neji's attention should be completely focused on Nami"

Hanabi grumbled under her breath and turned her attention to Hinata and Gaara who were sitting side by side his arm around her.

"So did Neji interrupt you guys having great sex?"

Hanabi watched in pleasure as her father's face went almost purple in anger serves him right for not letting her do what she wants. She felt a little bad for Hinata who was looking like a tomato but she had to give Gaara credit he didn't even so much as blink.

"Hana chan we were doing no such thing and please don't blurt out things like that its rude"

Neji who looked even more harassed than before came out .He bought some coffee from the vending machine and gulped it down. He walked towards them and sat down.

"They said it would take a few more hours at this rate my wife will murder me. She is screaming her head off"

"Oh Neji what did you do?"

"Nothing I just mentioned that she wasn't doing the breathing exercises properly"

"Neji you never mention to anyone pregnant that she is wrong. Really boy I thought you were smart" Hiashi however didn't mention of how his wife threatened him with castration multiple times when giving birth to Hanabi even then Hanabi was getting him into trouble.

Neji sighed and took another glass of ice chips to his wife.

"He looks like he is going to war"

"In some ways it is Hanabi"

Soon Tenten and Lee came after all Neji was extremely close to them but it looked like her father would end up killing Lee who had decided to tell a sleep deprived Hiashi all the joys of pregnancy from conception.

"Neji came in and announced that Nami was going to give birth. He followed the doctor and nurse who were wheeling in Nami into the delivery room. They asked him to wear scrubs and he entered. Hinata prayed that everything would go fine. She felt Gaara's arm tighten around her and was glad he was with her.

It was almost an hour after Nami had gone in. Hinata excused herself and went with Gaara to the canteen to get coffee for all of them .She was glad he was there with her .He was so sweet so patient. From the moment he had stepped in he hadn't even grumbled.

"You know you are sweetheart"

"I know .So do I get a reward?" he answered with one of his sexy smirks.

"Maybe" she smiled and pulled him down for a kiss.

"I like the sound of that" he smiled and they went into the waiting room. Lee in the meantime had pulled out a tiny green spandex suit and was showing Hiashi and Hanabi his present to the new Hyuga.

"Hiashi sama you're grandchild..... Neji kun's child will be blessed with the power of youth." Hiashi cringed as Lee's teeth shone and he swore he could a sunset forming behind Lee which was quite impossible since it was close to five in the morning.

Tenten sighed and bonked Lee quite hard. It was amazing to see a master at various forms of martial arts look close to fainting with one single hit.

The entire room froze as Neji came running in "It's a boy, I have a boy"

Everyone congratulated him .Lee was crying .It was so amazing the joy of having a new life…

Neji was looking at the baby boy in his arms. It was the happiest day of his life he glanced over at his wife.. no it was one of the happiest day of his life. He looked at the tiny frail thing in his arms, never had he seen something so beautiful .He had helped create his child. He knew from the moment he held his son that he would do anything for him. He knew he loved his son and would protect him. He tightened his arms around his son further and he knew this would be closest to feeling God and he reveled in it.

Neji had told them to enter . Hiashi gingerly picked himself up from his seat. His condition was getting worse. He walked into the room eager to see his grandchild. Who cared how bad his disease was getting today they were going to celebrate a new life. He sat down next to Nami.

"How are you?"

"Tired but fine. Would you like to hold him?"

He nodded and let Neji place the baby in his arms .He gently touched the baby's hands and felt the babies finger wrap around it. He pulled out a tiny box from his coat and opened it to pull out a tiny Hyuga pendant. It was tradition to give every new born to the Hyuga family something with the Hyuga flame on it.

Neji smiled and gently pulled the chain over the tiny head.

"Nii san?"

"Hai Hanabi?"

"So what's his name."

"We haven't decided yet"

"How about Hizashi?"Hiashi's deep voice asked.

Neji smiled and looked at Nami. Nami nodded a gentle smile escaped her tired lips

"Hyuga Hizashi sounds nice ne anata"

"It sounds perfect"

They were well into the celebration all of Hinata and Neji's friends had tuned up much to the nurses annoyance. Gaara frowned as he heard his cell phone ring he excused himself and heard his father. His frown deepened further.

"Fine yes I will do it"

Hinata was talking to her friend walked up to her and tugged at her.

"Hinata?"

"Hai"

"My father called me up I have to leave for Suna."

"How long will you be gone Gaara kun"

"A week or two. I'll be back"

"I'll be waiting"

Birth is the sudden opening of a window, through which you look out upon a stupendous prospect. For what has happened? A miracle. You have exchanged nothing for the possibility of everything."
