Hiya, EmoH123 here with a new chapter of the originally one shot story. I don't own Norn9.

"WAHHHH!" A shrilled sound tore Akito away from his thoughts. He, Senri, and Koharu were up immediately from their seats.

"That sound.." Koharu started softly. "Could it be ..."

Just then, the door to the other room opened and and middle aged woman came out. It was one of the midwives.

"Is the-" Akito started to ask.

"Yes, " she replied. "Congratulations." The woman beckoned him inside the room, to which Akito took a small breathe before he took small steps into the room. There he saw Nanami, lying in the bed while sweating profusely and breathing heavily. The purple haired young woman had her hand at her abdomen and was slightly writhing in pain.

"Nanami!" He went to her side and was on his knees. "Are you okay?"

His wife gave an exhausted smile. "I hurt down there."

He wrapped his arms around her slowly and stood her up slightly. "Of course. You did just give birth" he commented.

"Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Ichinose" a midwife said, heading towards them while cradling something wrapped in a pink blanket.

"Is that-" Akito looked up and started to speak.

"Yes. It's a healthy baby girl" she told them, as she carefully placed the newborn into her mother's arms.

Nanami smiled as her eyes started to water. "A daughter..., we...have a daughter" she told herself, as if she was still trying to process the fact. Akito rubbed her back slowly as he stared at his newborn daughter. The baby had tuffs of blue hair and his skin tone. Slowly, she opened her hazel eyes to see her parents looking down on her.

"Hello there" Akito cooed, baby-talking his little girl. She laughed at in response as she reached out her tiny hand.

As Akito held his family close to him, he was reminded of his own parents, Sato and Umi. "Umi..." he thought to himself. "That's it!"

"Umi..." he said,"Let's name her Umi."

"Umi..." Nanami thought about it for awhile. "Okay...Did you hear that your name is Umi." Now, Nanami was baby-talking Umi.

Umi giggled even more as Senri and Koharu entered the room. As the Ichinose family then took turns holding the newborn child, the more warmth of the scene rose.

"Aww, come on Akito" Heishi whined. "Let me hold her for at least-"

"Heck no! And keep your voice down, Umi is sleeping" Akito quietly hissed at the former telepathic, while holding a napping two week old baby in his arms. "The only way I would ever, ever, let you hold her to you is when I'm on my deathbed."

It has been two weeks since Umi was born, and every moment was stressful. The routine mainly consisted of diaper changing, napping, feeding, burping, and whatever the baby needed. Akito had taken to his role as a parent quite well-

"As I predicted before" Sakuya, who along with Mikoto, Itsuki, and Heishi came to visit, said to no one in particular.

"Really now, Akkun, don't you think you're being too overprotective" Itsuki sighed. "If you're this protective over someone holding her, I'd hate to see you when Umi-tan starts noticing- ULP!" Sakuya had elbowed him in the stomach.

"Tan?" Nanami, who was on the couch with Mikoto, tilted her head and raised an eyebrow.

Mikoto sighed tiredly, "Just ignore him, you should know by now that nothing important never comes out of his mouth."

Sakuya nodded wordlessly as he turned his attention to Umi. "May I hold her?"

"Okay...be careful with her" Akito said, he prepared to gently hand his daughter over.

Sakuya nodded as took a sleeping Umi into his arms. He smile as he cradled her. "So cute and tiny" he commented.

"EHHH! NO-" Itsuki and Akito covered Heishi's mouth as they hushed him.

Mikoto sighed as Nanami's mouth curved upwards a bit.
