"Honey let me look at the baby!"

I looked up at my husband, Ryo, as he held the child in his arms. My mother squealed with delight as Ryo gently placed the baby in her arms. The baby giggled as my mother smiled and bounced her around.

"Oh she's wonderful!" My mother commented as my little baby girl giggled again. "Darling get down here! Payton just came by!"

I heard someone running down the stairs. By the way they sounded, I could tell that they were excited. I guessed right, too.

I saw my Father come down and rush to my mother's side. He greeted me with a quick kiss on the cheek, and with Ryo, he gave a good handshake. That didn't last very long, however. His attention went straight to the baby afterward.

He smiled himself and made strange noises, which made my child laugh with delight. I gave Ryo a grin before leaning my head against his shoulder. He draped his arm over my shoulders and we watched my parents play with the child.

Suddenly, the front door burst opened. I lifted my head and peeked over my shoulder, wondering who was randomly bursting into the house.

I rolled my eyes when they walked inside. "You do a good job at knocking. " I told them sarcastically.

Starletta laughed as she held Jax's hand. The whole group came by actually! Star, Jax, and Star's parents. Shiela came with her Father with Finn right behind her. They decided to stay friends...For now, at least. I wasn't sure what was going on with them, but I knew that some time they were going to date...Someday. Maybe...Hopefully.

"Let me see the kiddo!" Star exclaimed. She broke away from Jax's grasp and ran over to where my mom was holding the kid.

Star smiled and then politely asked if she could hold her. My mom agreed and carefully placed the fragile baby in Star's arms. Star chuckled as the kid tried to grab the hair that was covering one of her eyes.

"She's so adorable!" Star squealed.

"Did you pick a name yet...?" Shiela asked flatly. I looked into her eyes, and knew instantly that she was excited as well. I've been friends with her for as long as I could remember...I know when she's excited or not.

I looked up at Ryo, and he shrugged his shoulders with a face that said, 'I have no idea'. I laughed at this then turned back to Shiela. 

"We're not sure yet." I admitted, blushing a bit. It was embarrassing to have a kid who doesn't have a name.

"Then think of one right now." Finn told me. He approached Star, who was holding the baby. Finn looked at the kid for a moment, then back at me. "I'd say she's got a bit of both of you in her." He said. "Ryo's colored hair...Your eyes, Payton."

Ryo leaned forward and whispered into my ear. I blinked, and another smile slowly crept onto my face. I nodded in agreement to this suggestion, and then I lifted an arm so eveyone was paying attention.

"Okay! We've decided on a name!" When everyone was quiet, I opened my mouth. "Her name is....

"Kimi."
