Chapter 1: Introduction Part 1

No One's POV

"That's it Kotoha! One more push, you can do it." Takeru told his wife as she was birthing their first child.

Kotoha nodded and pushed the baby out in no time. Once the baby was out Takeru went to go check on it as Kaoru (his mom) was cleaning it up and Kotoha asked tiredly, "Is it okay?"

As soon as she said that, the baby cried and Kotoha smiled. But her smile was soon replaced by pain and she clutched her stomach once again.
Takeru ran back to his wife immediately after hearing her cry of pain, "Kotoha! What's wrong?!"

Kotoha couldn't say anything but, "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts…"

"Mom!" Takeru shouted.

"Genta! I need you to put Sakura down for a second and watch the first baby!" Kaoru shouted before handing the first baby over to her husband. Then she rushed over to Kotoha as fast as she could.

"Kotoha, I need you to stay still. I know it hurts, but you need to stay still." Once Kotoha calmed down enough to be still Kaoru checks her cervix and finds to her surprise another baby.

"There's another baby in here! Kotoha, push again! /Kotoha pushes/ Harder! /pushes again/ Okay, last one!" Kotoha pushed again her face contorted with pain and gave birth to another baby. As soon as the second child was born, Kaoru took the second baby as it cried and examined it. After making sure there was no other baby Kaoru helped Kotoha deliver the after birth, while Takeru and Genta were looking at his newborns.

"Take-chan, you're finally a father! How does it feel?" Genta asked his best friend/son.

"Considering that we're the last couple to have children out of our whole team, I'm really happy. They're both healthy and Kotoha is also doing well. I was afraid of losing her after what happened to Chiaki." Takeru said with sadness.

Genta nodded in agreement. "I know the feeling. I was scared for Kaoru when she gave birth to Sakura too, but everything went smoothly without complications. Even though Chiaki's wife died, at least he still has his son."

Takeru nodded. "But that doesn't make it less depressing for him."

Genta clapped Takeru's shoulder with his hand. "It is sad, but don't think about that right now Take-chan. Today your twins were born and you deserve to celebrate."

Takeru dwells on it a bit more but then smiles. "You're right. Thanks Genta."

"Everything's done now. You can both come back with the twins!" Kaoru shouted to both of them.

When Takeru and Genta came in, Kotoha was resting comfortably and Kaoru was holding her daughter Sakura. When she saw the babies Kotoha's eyes lit up at once. "Bring our babies here; I never got to see them! What gender are they?"

"The first baby is a boy and the surprise baby is a girl." Takeru said as smiled handing her the baby in his arms, while Genta gave him the baby that was in his.

Kotoha smiled and asked, "So which one am I holding?"

Takeru kissed the top of the baby's head. "I believe you're holding our daughter and I'm holding our son."

"Hello, little one. /hugs the baby closer/ You just wanted to surprise everyone didn't you? /giggles/ What should we name them?"

Takeru made a thinking face and said, "Well, we agreed that the boy's name would be Tadashi, but we didn't have a girl named picked out."

Kotoha thinks for a while and then it comes to her. "How about we name her Miyuki?"

Takeru smiled. "That sounds like a great name. Hello Miyuki."

Two Years Later

Kotoha is giving birth yet again. Kaoru is again with Kotoha helping her through this delivery and Takeru is with Tadashi and Miyuki who are now 2 years old.

"Dad, why mom scream?" Tadashi asked full of curiosity.

"Yeah, she sound hurt. Maybe we go help?" Miyuki added cocking her head to one side.

Takeru chuckled, "Mom is okay, I promise. She's just having the baby right now."

Tadashi cocked his head to the side as well. "Hurt this much?"

Takeru chuckled and nodded. "Yes, it hurts a lot."

Miyuki pulled on Takeru's shirt sleeve. "Hurt this much when we born too?"

Takeru chuckled, "Yes, it hurt this much when she had the both of you too."

Tadashi made a funny face. "Then why have baby?"

Miyuki nodded, agreeing with her brother's question. "Yeah, too hard."

Takeru laughed and pulled in both twins for a hug. "Because it's worth going through all the pain just to have children. One day you'll understand."

The twins looked at each other and said simultaneously, "Okay."

Takeru was still laughing at their antics when Kaoru opened the door. "Takeru, did you want to meet your new daughter?"

Takeru nodded and brought the twins along with him to meet their newest family member. When they entered the room Kotoha was lying down in bed holding the baby. Once she saw them Kotoha gestured them to come forward. "Did you two want to meet your new sister?"

Both of the twins nodded and Kotoha lowered the baby so they both could see. The twins smiled. Takeru also smiled and gave Kotoha a kiss. The twins looked up to see their parents kissing and both yelled, "Ew, gross!"

Both Takeru and Kotoha stopped to laugh and smiled. "Okay, okay we're sorry."

Tadashi laughed and cuddled back into Takeru, but Miyuki went forward to look more closely at her new baby sister. "What her name?"

Kotoha smiled. "Her name is Tsukiko."

Miyuki smiled at her new sister. Raising her hand to pet her head, Miyuki said, "Tsukiko, I love you. I be best big sister ever!"

Hearing this Tadashi went by Miyuki and also tried to pet his new sister's head. "I also love you and be best big brother!"

Takeru and Kotoha smiled while watching this scene, taking comfort in their small family.
