Still own nothing but the ocs. Happy Tuesday everyone!

Someone Special

Two months later – Momo

I was getting close to the time when the baby is suppose to be due. Captain Unohana had said that within the last month, the baby could come any time. I had about two weeks left. She had sent Isane to stay with us until the baby came. Sakura had returned too. We were out walking around and showing Isane the village. She was amused at how well recognized I was.

"I didn't think you liked that much attention," she teased.

"Well, I did marry the most important guy in the village" I sighed.

"You almost make it sound like a bad thing," commented Sakura.

"It's not, it's just different than what I'm use to. Gaara treats me well and his siblings approve of me." I grinned.

"Hey, you three!" yelled Temari as she ran towards us, "I thought I could join you."

"The more the merrier." Sakura smiled.

We kept walking for a while. I suddenly stopped, grabbed my belly and fell to my knees. Isane knelt next to me to see what was wrong. Her eyes got big and she looked to the other two.

"Temari, go have Gaara meet us at the hospital. Sakura, help me with Momo," she said, "the baby is coming."

Temari took off and we headed to the hospital. When we got there, Sakura grabbed the doctor and carted me off to the delivery room. I had tears running down my face from the pain.

Hospital – Gaara

I came running in with Temari. We stopped to asked where they had taken Momo. We got closer to the room and I could hear her crying in pain. One of the nurses came out and told me I had to wait. Temari dragged me to the nearest bench and sat next to me, trying to keep me calm. Every time I heard Momo cry in pain, I jumped. Temari was trying hard not to laugh at me.

"Don't worry, she's in good hands. Sakura is in there, plus her friend Isane." she said trying to clam me down more.

"I know, but I want to be in there with her. I wish I could take the pain away from her." I looked at Temari with tears in my eyes.

She pulled me closer and gave me a hug. Eventually word got out about the baby coming. Kankurō and Matsuri showed up and sat next to me. One of the elders stopped by to give us well wishes.

Hours later

Time passed by and we heard a baby cry. Moments later Sakura came out holding a baby wrapped in a blue blanket.

"Congratulations Gaara, it's a boy!" she smiled as she handed me the baby.

I pulled the blanket back a bit. Everyone was looking. He has red hair, just like mine. I noticed some of his hair had a bit of black to it.

"Welcome little Kiyoto" I said and he smiled.

I think everyone just about melted at that. Isane came out of the room smiling.

"Well Gaara, I thought you would like to know that Momo is doing fine and we're going to move her to a different room " she said.

I nodded and handed Kiyoto to Temari. I went in to see Momo. She looked tired and tried to smile.

"I'm proud of you," I whispered in her ear and kissed her forehead, "Get some rest and I'll stay the night with you and Kiyoto."

"I'm sorry, Momo, but I'm going to have to give you something to knock you out for a while so you can rest." Isane said.

She took Momo's hand and put a couple of drops of shinten on her skin. Momo was out like a light. I went back out to the group and had them follow as they moved Momo. I couldn't help but smile at everyone. They were taking turns holding Kiyoto. I noticed Isane sending off a hell butterfly.

Days later – Momo

It was nice to be able to go home from the hospital. Matsuri came to escort Kiyoto and I. Matsuri carried my bag as I carried Kiyoto. She was telling about how fast word had spread through out the village about Kiyoto being born. Some of the village people had sent gifts for Kiyoto. We entered the apartment and we found Temari waiting for us.

"Momo, you should see Kiyoto's room. Kankurō and Gaara were having fun getting it ready." She beamed.

We walked into the room and the sight caught my breath. The room looked like a beautiful sunset on the walls. Some of the villagers had sent furniture and others sent clothes and blankets. There was a puppet of a cat on the dresser.

"Matsuri, will you help me with writing thank you notes for the gifts." I asked.

"Don't worry, Gaara already did that. You just get to relax and spend time with Kiyoto." she smiled.

My jaw hit the floor. I couldn't believe it. Gaara had taken care of everything.

"Yoruichi stopped by briefly yesterday to drop off gifts from your friends." she continued. "A lot from them were messages of congratulations, plus they sent flowers. Interesting flowers."

"Come back to the kitchen, Momo, I made us lunch." Temari smiled. "Besides, I want to spend time with my nephew."

Temari took Kiyoto from me and I followed her out to the kitchen. I couldn't believe all that was done while I was gone. Matsuri was telling me how people kept showing up at Gaara's office to congratulate and drop off gifts and cards.

I saw a vase on the kitchen counter and it had different flowers from the different divisions. Next to the vase was a card with well wishes from all of the captains and lieutenants. There was a pale turquoise blanket next to the flowers. It had the kanji for five with lily of the valley all over it.

I felt so lucky to know how many people cared and were excited for Kiyoto.

Sorry about this being a short chapter.
