SasoDei – Baby Blue – Chapter 24
Birth
35 Weeks into Pregnancy
Deidara's POV
Deidara gave a sigh as he looked down at his large baby bump.
5 more weeks to go.
He gave a blink.
"I'm not ready for this, un!" The blonde began to panic. "I dun' wanna give birth! I'm not ready for this! DANNA!"
Sasori appeared in the living room within 3 seconds flat.
"What? Did something happen?"
Deidara flung his arms around the red head.
"I dun' wanna give birth, un! Birth is painful!"
Sasori frowned down at Deidara, and then gave a sigh. He put his arms around the blonde and kissed him on the top of the head.
"It's okay, Dei. You will have an epidural for the caesarean, you won't feel a thing."
"Can I be unconscious for the birth, un?"
Sasori smiled at him softly.
"Course you can, Dei, whatever you prefer."
Deidara nodded against Sasori's chest.
"Thank you, Danna."
"Don't worry Dei, not long to go now. Just 5 weeks."
"…Joy, un."
"Just think, Dei, in 5 weeks we will be cradling out little baby in our arms."
Deidara was momentarily silent, but gave a gentle smile.
"You're right, Danna, I shouldn't be so worried."
Sasori stroked his blonde's hair softly.
"It's only natural for you to feel scared. Don't worry about it."
Deidara smiled and gave a yawn.
"Only 5 more weeks to go."
Sasori chuckled.
"You mean 5 more whole weeks to go."
"Yeah, un, 5 more whole weeks."
"That's my DeiDei Brat." Sasori kissed him on the cheek.

36 Weeks Pregnant
Sasori's POV
Sasori came home to the roar of the vacuum cleaner. He closed the door behind him, and walked into the clean house.
Deidara was in the lounge room, using the vacuum cleaner to clean the carpet, while singing even louder.
"When I was a young man and very well thought of, I couldn't ask ought, un, what the ladies denied. I nibbled their hearts like a hand fall of raisins, un, I never spoke love but I knew that I lied."
Sasori watched the figure of Deidara as he vacuumed, completely unaware of the red head.
"But I say to myself that the none of them know, the secret I shelter and savour and save, I wait for the one who will see through my seeming, and I know when I love by the way I behave. The years drifted over, un, like clouds in the heavens, the ladies went by me like snow on the wind. I charmed and I cheated, un, deceived and dissembled, and sinned and I sinned and I sinned and I sinned."
Sasori continued to listen to Deidara's loud singing. He noticed that Deidara hadn't been singing the song very often lately. He really didn't know why, the blonde had probably just been too busy with the baby and setting up the nursery with the red head.
"But I say to myself that the none of them see, their's part of me pure, un, as whisk as a wave, my lady is late but she will find I'll be faithful, and I know when I love by the way I behave."
Sasori smirked as the blonde reached the best part of the song.
"At last came a lady both knowing and tender, un, saying your not at all what they take you to be~ I betrayed her BEFORE she had quite finished SPEAKING, un. She SWALLOWED cold POISON and jumped in the SEA!"
Sasori chuckled silently. Deidara was still so melodramatic about that part of the song.
"So I say to myself when there is time for a word, un, as I gracefully grow, debauched and depraved. Love may be strong, un, but a habit is stronger, and I knew when I loved by the way I behaved~"
Deidara turned off the vacuum cleaner, finished with it for the time being. He turned around, jumping slightly when he saw Sasori. The blonde gave a sigh of relief and smiled at the red head.
"Hey, Danna, how was work?"
"The usual."
"Ouch."
The blonde made his way over to the red head and gave him a sympathetic peck on the lips.
"Yeah, I found a note that one of the girls was passing around the class. Well, I'm just going to say it said something VERY inappropriate about my ass."
Deidara kissed the frustrated puppet once more.
"Poor Danna."
Sasori looked around at the clean house.
"You were cleaning?"
"Yep!" Deidara grinned at the red head. "I was bored, but then I got the urge to do some cleaning for some reason."
Sasori smiled at the blonde and kissed him on the lips.
"Go lie down, Dei; I will cook dinner for us."
Deidara smiled at Sasori.
"Thanks Danna, un."
Deidara gave a yawn and made his way over to the couch. He lay down on the soft material and closed his eyes. He was soon enveloped in a light, dreamless sleep.

37 Weeks Pregnant
Deidara looked over at the clock. 12:19pm.
He frowned.
Still a few hours till Sasori came home. With nothing better to do, he turned on the TV.
"Deltora Quest, un? Sweet."
He watched the television with faint fascination.
After a few minutes he looked back over to the clock. 12:26pm.
He frowned. Time seriously was slow today.
Deidara winced as a sharp pain shot through his body.
Huh?
Oh, must be one of those Braxton Hicks Contractions Tsunade had warned him about. Fake.
The pain passed after about 30 seconds and he began to watch the TV again. After a bit, Deidara looked to the clock for a third time. 12:35pm.
He suddenly felt another pain run through his body.
Another fake.
The pain subsided once more and Deidara continued watching Deltora Quest. It was the episode where Lief, Barda and Jasmine face against Thaegan.
He looked back at the clock, though really he didn't know why he kept looking.
12:42pm.
The TV show ended and Deidara felt another shoot of pain.
He frowned.
These were getting pretty painful.
He shrugged it off and continued to watch the television. The next Deltora Quest episode began to play.
After a bit, another sharp pain hit him. The blonde winced.
Ouch.
The blonde looked back to the clock. 12:50.
The pain was becoming more frequent.
Deidara's eyes widened as realisation struck him. Shit, these weren't Braxton Hicks Contractions…These were real.
Shit, he was giving birth!
SHIT! THE BABY WAS COMING!
He probably should have guessed it earlier after he had spent the past week cleaning the house for no apparent reason. Must have been his Nesting Instinct.
Deidara scrambled to his feet and made his way to the land line phone. He quickly dialled in Sasori's mobile number.
After a few rings, Sasori finally picked up.
"Deidara? What is it? I'm in the middle of giving a lectu-"
"Sasori! The baby's com-" Deidara gave a sharp gasp as another contraction took place. "GET HERE NOW!"
Sasori was silent for a few seconds. Deidara could sense his shock.
"Shit! I'll call Mello to take you to the hospital! I will meet you there."
"HURRY, UN!"
He hung up the phone and grabbed the prepacked bag of supplies he would need at the hospital. Deidara gave a cry as another strong contraction hit him. He clutched at his baby bump.
"Dammit, un!"
Deidara managed to make his way out of the house, closing the French doors behind him.
Matt was already there waiting for him on Mello's motorbike.
"Where's Mello, un?"
"Not quite sure, I haven't heard from him in 4 weeks."
The red head held the helmet out for Deidara. The blonde put it on and climbed onto the motorbike behind Matt.
"Do you even know how to drive a motorcycle?"
"I've played a lot of video games about driving a motorcycle, how much of a difference can there be?"
Deidara gripped onto Matt tightly at the feel of another contraction.
"JUST DRIVE, UN!"
Matt revved the engine and the bike took off down the street.
"IS THIS EVEN SAFE? YOU'RE NOT WEARING A HELMET! WHY DIDN'T WE JUST TAKE THE CAR, UN?"
"Mello took it!"
"Why did he-" Deidara gasped in pain once more. He pressed his helmet protected head against Matt's back. "Why did he leave, un?"
"I'm not quite sure!" Matt swerved the bike to dodge traffic as they hastily made their way to the hospital. "We're almost there, Deidara, just a few more minutes to go!"
Deidara gave a slight nod, cringing in pain.
They were probably going well over the speed limit. Matt kept dodging other vehicles, and Deidara would have probably been scared if he wasn't so preoccupied.
This was EXTREMELY painful!
-x-
Deidara couldn't remember much of the trip to the hospital. He was now being wheeled in a wheelchair to the emergency room.
Sasori was at his side, carrying the prepacked bag for Deidara. Matt had disappeared altogether.
"Everything is going to be okay, Dei. Just breathe."
Deidara wanted to scream at the red head and beat him to a bloody pulp for absolutely no reason in particular. Instead he just gave a slight nod, still cringing in pain as he tried to steady his breathing.
The next thing he knew, he was on an operating table. He cried at the pain of yet another contraction.
"Sir," it was a brunette doctor who had spoken, "I am Dr Neji Hyuga."
"Oh, un, you're Hinata's cous-" He gasped in pain. "GET THIS THING OUT OF ME NOW!"
Sasori took the blonde's hand to try and comfort him. Deidara squeezed extremely hard on the red head's hand, and Sasori was sure if he hadn't been a puppet that Deidara would have broken some of his bones.
"The epidural will take effect soon. We just need to know whether you would like to be conscious or unconscious for the operation."
God, Deidara was in so much pain.
"SLEEP! FUCK! PUT ME TO SLEEP ALREADY!"
-x-
Deidara awoke slowly and peacefully to the sound of a soft beeping noise. He felt tired and sluggish. Deidara gave a yawn and looked around.
He was lying in a hospital bed. Sasori was there as well. The red head was fast asleep, sitting on a hospital chair. The top half of his body was lying on Deidara's bed, and he was holding onto Deidara's hand.
Deidara blinked sleepily and looked at his stomach. He couldn't see the scar because of the hospital robe and because of the blankets. His bump had reduced in size, but it was still reasonably large. He knew that it would eventually shrink down over time.
"Sasori?"
He shook the red head slightly to wake him up.
Sasori gave a slight grumble, but woke up none the less. He blinked at Deidara sleepily, and then gave a soft smile.
"Hey Dei. How you feeling?"
Deidara smiled sleepily back at him.
"Tired, un. What is the date?"
"20th of May." Sasori stood up, stretching slightly. "I'll be right back, Dei. I have a present for you."
He leaned down and kissed the blonde sweetly on the cheek, and then left the hospital room.
Deidara blinked slowly and gave a yawn. He wanted to fall asleep again, but he didn't let himself. He wanted to see his baby.
Sasori came back about 10 minutes later, wheeling in a hospital bassinet. He wheeled the crib next to Deidara and pulled a bundle of baby blue blankets out of it.
Deidara heard a slight baby babble as Sasori placed the bundle into the blonde's arms.
Deidara stared down at the little face, which in turn stared back up at him inquisitively. The baby had been cleaned up and was a healthy colour.
The baby blinked up at Deidara with its large eyes. One was a chocolate brown, while the other eye was coloured a soft baby blue.
Deidara laughed slightly, his whole heart filled with love just looking at the tiny creature with which he held in his arms.
"Well, what do you know? Two different eye colours." He smiled wide and tenderly. "That's just too adorable."
The baby blinked again, fully alert.
The baby had blond hair, and its facial features were more similar to Sasori's than Deidara's, especially the eyes, despite the colour. The little creature gave a soft yawn, revealing its red, toothless mouth.
Sasori smiled down at the little face, and then gave Deidara a kiss on the cheek.
"I was right, you know?"
"About what, un?"
"It's a Boy."
Deidara blinked at Sasori and then looked back at his little baby. He smiled once more and lightly bounced the newborn in his arms.
"Tsunade really is a lousy Doctor." Deidara laughed lightly. "A boy, un."
He couldn't have cared less whether it was a boy, girl or even both.
"Yep. 2.9 kilograms, 53 centimetres from toe to head. Taurus star sign. Born on the 20th of May, 2010. Perfectly healthy."
Deidara held the baby to his chest. He felt so content like this.
They were fathers.
"What are we going to call him? We can't call him Delilay. And we will have to change his middle name as well."
Deidara leaned forward and kissed the baby softly on the forehead.
"Mikoto."
Sasori blinked. He then smiled softly and gave the baby a kiss on the forehead as well.
"Welcome to the world, Mikoto Hiruko Akasuna."
"And what a World it is, un."
A world of Freaks: where everyone is Normal.
The End.
-x-
FINALLY! THAT'S THE END OF IT! OVER 58000 WORDS TOTAL! You know what that means? I'VE BASICALLY WRITTEN A NOVEL! XD Lolz I'm gonna become an author yet!
Anyway, I think the name Mikoto means Prince. Just like Sasori and Deidara, I had no idea what to call him till I got to the end of this chapter XD Lolz
I didn't really know how to end this =.= Two ways I was thinking was either have it at Miko's 1st birthday, or when he was 16 and Sasori and Deidara were dropping him off at Deltek's. *shrug* I decided to end it like this so I leave it all fluffy and innocent.
Oh.
Ahem.
IN YOUR FACES!
THE BABY HAS BEEN A BOY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING! *dignity laugh* The MAJOR clue was the TITLE for Jashin's sake XD 'Baby Blue'! Boy's are usually wrapped in blue blankets when they are born, while girls have pink XD Lolz
Anyway, I am so happy to be finished this T-T - Tears of Joy
