A loud scream echoed through the hallways of the hospital.

In a room on the top floor, Sakura clutched one side of the bedrail, her knuckles white. her other hand was clamped tightly on her husband's hand, who was trying not to show how much pain he was in. Earlier he had grunted, "I'm in pain," when his wife had a bad contraction. She had let go of his hand and grabbed his shirt instead, yelling, "YOU'RE in PAIN?" He learned the hard way to keep his mouth shut.

The nurse attending to Sakura was facing her. "Breath, just breathe..." she kept saying, though it wasn't like her patient was listening.

"Syaoran..." Sakura whimpered. He knelt beside her and said softly, "You'll get through this, dear, don't worry."

"That's not what I was going to say," she managed weakly with an even weaker chuckle. "I was going to say, if we ever get through this, I'm going to kill you."

Syaoran was about to retort when she screamed again. "It's coming...!"

"Okay, I need you to push..." the nurse coaxed. "Don't waste your energy on screaming too much..." Whatever else she said was lost in Sakura's grunts and yells until she lost her patience. "DAMMIT, WOMAN, SHUT UP AND PUSH!" she yelled.

Both Sakura and Syaoran immediately looked up at her in shock. It was pin drop silence. That is, until Sakura started screaming again. "Syaoran..."

He stayed by her side, all the while thinking, it'll be a miracle if I can use my right hand again.

Finally, after much noise and a lot of coaxing, the nurse breathed a sigh of relief. "There," she said softly. "It's over."

Sakura mustered all the energy she had left to lift her head and take the white bundle from the woman's arms. Deposited neatly in the blanket was a baby girl, still covered and blotched with blood, and yet the most beautiful thing she'd ever seen. "Syaoran..." she whispered. "Syaoran, she's beautiful."

Syaoran, who had been quietly nursing his hand, walked to his wife's side and whistled. "Yes, she is. You going to name her before you kill me or what?" he asked sarcastically.

To his surprise, she pulled him gently to her lips and kissed him. "You know I'd never do that," she said, smiling before looking down at the small creature in her arms. The baby blinked and began to rub her eyes gently with closed fists. When she opened them again, they were a bright golden-brown. "Amber," Sakura said softly. "Amber Li."

Syaoran put an arm around his wife's shoulder and gently caressed his new baby's cheek. "Amber Li it is."
