PS I made a lot of typos in age difference, so I'll be frank with it right now:

Sasuke and Rin are three years apart, so Itachi and Rin are seven years apart.

~ The next day in the Konoha Hospital

Sasuke was trembling outside the door, twisting his shirt in anxiety and fidgeting with his fingers. Itachi stood beside him with an arm draped around Sasuke's trembling shoulders. His face was slightly pale, but he remained calm, letting no one know of how stiff his arm was when he held Sasuke. Fugaku was inside Mitoko's room with the medics. Every time Mitoko screamed or groaned, Sasuke gulped and Itachi's grip on his shoulders tightened. It was like this for about two hours before there was the high pithed cry of a new voice. Sasuke stopped trembling in sudden shock and looked up at Itachi who smiled down.

"Want to go inside, Sasuke?" said Itachi who could not contain his own happiness and excitement in his voice. Although... If was funny. Even in excitement, his voice was monotonous.

Sasuke was suddenly afraid, "What will she look like? I've never seen a baby before."

Itachi chuckled to himself, remembering the day Sasuke was born. "The baby will look like a round peach that's pink and white."

Sasuke widened his eyes, "Will she be small?"

For a second, Itachi's smile faltered when he remembered the medic's words and Fugaku's reproachfulness towards the new child because of her problems. "She's a baby," said Itachi bringing out his smile again through force, "of course she'll be tiny."

Just then a medic poked his head brought the door, "The baby is out," he announced, "why don't you two come in to meet her?"

"Thank you," said Itachi bowing his head down and leading a nervous Sasuke inside.

Inside the hospital room Mikoto was lying unconscious from exhaustion, and there were marks on her cheeks from where tears had flowed down in torrents. From pain or happiness, Itachi did not know, maybe it was both. Inside a standing medic's arms however was a a fuzzy shaped wrapped in a towel that was crying. Fugaku stood behind the medic with a grim expression on his face that Sasuke failed to notice.

"Wow!" said Sasuke when the medic bent down to reveal he baby to him, "She really is small! Like a peach!"

"Indeed," said Fugaku bitterly, "I refused to believe the medic until now. Even as a baby she is small, this child looks like she was born premature! And," Fugaku's blood red sharingan activated as he stared at the crying baby, "her Chakra really is distorted. I wonder about the sharingan..." Fugaku muttered to himself and turned away.

"But peaches don't have sagging skin!" Sasuke shouted in amazement, "Or hands! Wow!"

Itachi sighed when he heard his father's angry words and chose to ignore them. Following Sasuke, Itachi walked towards the medic that was kneeling beside Sasuke. "Can I touch her?" whispered Sasuke to the medic who smiled and nodded.

"I would like to meet our new sister too," said Itachi approaching the little child wrapped in a blanket.

By coincidence, the two brothers' hands touched their sister's arm simultaneously and at their gentle touch, the baby's cried came to an abrupt end and suddenly from the bundle two golden eyes shown at the brothers. "UWAAA!" cried Sasuke shielding his eyes as a golden-white light shone for a second. But a second.
