Hizashi's pregnancy with Hitoshi hadn't been too difficult but it wasn't easy either, now that the baby boy had been born, Hizashi and Shouta were settling into life as parents.

The day Hitoshi was born, Hizashi had to stay in the hospital for another day just to make sure there weren't any after birth complications considering this was his first baby.

After he got the okay to go home, he and Shouta anxiously brought their baby boy home. Hizashi was so happy to be home again, he was absolutely exhausted, after going through hours and hours of labor, then the delivery process, that would take a while for him to recover.

Shouta settled into parenthood naturally, it was almost as if he had been a father all his life. In a way, he had, due to the fact he's been a teacher for several years, Hizashi also settled into parenthood fairly easily, he was still a bit nervous and there were things he'd have to adjust to.

Hizashi fell in love with his son from the moment he laid eyes on him, from his whispy purple hair, to his eyes that were the same color as Shouta's. Shouta heavily insisted on Hizashi resting as much as possible, but Hizashi was stubborn and didn't want to stay in bed all the time despite just how tired he was.

They settled on a compromise, Shouta would do the heavier and more tiring tasks around the house and Hizashi would do the lighter work and they would take turns looking after the baby.

The day after they brought Hitoshi home, Hizashi woke up to the sound of his newborn son crying, as if on autopilot, he got up, put on his fuzzy yellow bathrobe and slippers and walked over to the bassinet they set up in their bedroom.

He smiled down at the baby boy and scooped him into his arms.

"Hey, buddy. It's okay, I got you" he said softly, cradling Hitoshi close to his chest.

Hitoshi's crying softened almost immediately after being picked up and held, being replaced by soft gurgling.

Hizashi carried Hitoshi over to his rocking chair and sat down, slowly rocking Hitoshi in his arms.

He unbuttoned his shirt and settled Hitoshi close against his chest, watching as the baby boy latched on and began to suckle.

Breastfeeding had definitely been something Hizashi was still getting used to, but he absolutely loved watching Hitoshi cuddle close to his chest while he ate, his tiny fist gripping onto his pajama shirt.

He hadn't noticed Shouta walking into the bedroom, carrying two mugs of coffee and bringing one to him, setting it down on the small table next to the rocking chair until he felt Shouta's five o'clock shadow rubbing against his forehead.

He giggled softly and glanced up at his husband, looking at him with a soft, loving smile on his face. "Hey" he greeted, leaning over slightly to peck Shouta's lips, his moustache tickling the underside of Shouta's nose.

Shouta chuckled. "Hey, I thought you might like some coffee"

"Thanks. Decaf, right?" Hizashi reached over for his Tweety bird coffee cup while his left arm kept Hitoshi cradled to his chest.

"Yep, mine is too" Shouta sipped his own coffee, looking at Hitoshi, who had already stopped eating and had settled against Hizashi's chest, fussing softly at the movement.

"Could you hand me that burp cloth, Sho?" Hizashi asked, settling Hitoshi against his shoulder.

Shouta nodded and reached over for the cloth and laid it against Hizashi's shoulder.

Hizashi smiled in thanks and gently rubbed Hitoshi's back until he stopped fussing.

Once he was settled down again, Hizashi just held him and continued slowly rocking him in his arms.

Shouta was still smiling lovingly at them both. "You're already a wonderful mother, Hizashi"

Hizashi blushed a bit, glancing up at Shouta, then back down at Hitoshi. "You really think so?"

"Of course. You're handling everything so well. You handled labor like a champ, like I knew you would. You're amazing" Shouta hugged Hizashi's shoulder.

Hizashi leaned his head back against Shouta's arm. "Hmm. You know, if you had told me when I was in high school that I would be happily married to my best friend and have a baby with him, I probably would've laughed"

Shouta chuckled. "I honestly never thought I'd be this happy with anyone. I couldn't imagine not having you in my life. And to know that you married me and gave me a son, it's so hard for me to believe. I love you so much, Hizashi"

Hizashi couldn't help the tears that began developing in his eyes. "Oh, Sho, you're gonna make me cry. I love you too"

He leaned his head back a bit more and lovingly kissed Shouta's lips, receiving an equally as loving kiss in return.
