Dr. Seokjin's face was unreadable when he approached Chanyeol and the family. Chanyeol didn't know what emotion he should be feeling as Dr. Seokjin greeted them, but then a slow smile upturned the corners of his mouth as he happily said, "The delivery was a success!" Chanyeol exhaled in relief and felt near tears.

"When you're ready you can see your baby. Your husband is resting at the moment and his anesthesia should be wearing off soon. Once it does he will feel a soreness in his abdomen from the surgery, but I've prescribed him a pain medication that you can pick up before your husband is discharged. He should be able to go home in the morning," Dr. Seokjin said with a smile and a bow.

Chanyeol shifted Taehyung from his lap, and his face hurt from smiling so much as he shook Dr. Seokjin's hand and profusely thanked him. The doctor smiled, and after he had walked away to attend to his other patients, Taehyung pulled on Chanyeol's sleeve and asked, "Can we see Mommy?"

Chanyeol smiled and kissed his son's cheek. "Absolutely, baby," he muttered, then he glanced up to look at his family. "We probably shouldn't all go at once . . . Mr and Mrs. Byun, would you like to come with us first?"

Mrs. Byun was fighting back her tears as she nodded and hoarsely replied, "Yes, of course!"

Chanyeol smiled and stood up, grabbing Taehyung's hand as they began to make their way to Baekhyun's room. Chanyeol was beyond happy to finally be meeting his little girl, and he felt much like Taehyung on his sugar high.

When they reached Baekhyun's room and before going in, Chanyeol gently clasped Taehyung's shoulders and said, "Okay Tae, you need to be very good. Mommy is still resting, and we don't want to wake your baby sister because then she might wake Mommy. Okay?"

Taehyung nodded, his eyes wide with excitement as he replied, "Okay."

Chanyeol smiled and kissed his son's cheek, before taking his hand and pushing open the door. The room was very quiet with Baekhyun asleep on his bed, and their daughter's bed right beside him. Chanyeol kept a firm grip on Taehyung's hand as they walked into the room because he didn't want his son's wild nature to burst out like a caged bird.

When Chanyeol reached his sleeping beauty he kissed his forehead and whispered, "You're so amazing, Baekkie. I love you to the end of the universe and back." He gently stroked Baekhyun's cheek before going around the bed to see his daughter. And when he saw her, he had no words. She was beautiful with her little curls and delicate features. Chanyeol could definitely see more of Baekhyun in their daughter, and she was absolutely perfect.

Chanyeol let go of Taehyung's hand —- who used the first chance of freedom to crawl onto Baekhyun's bed and curl into his side. Chanyeol gently reached into his daughter's little hospital bed and carefully lifted her up, being mindful to support her head as he sat down on the edge of the bed. Taehyung glanced at Chanyeol and saw him holding his sister and curiously crawled to him.

He peeked over Chanyeol's arm, his eyes wide with wonder as he whispered, "She's so small."

Chanyeol nodded. "Yes, she is, and that's why you'll always have to protect your little sister," Chanyeol muttered, his voice rumbling deep in his chest. And he didn't know if it was the deep rumble or the sound of their voices that had her slowly blinking her eyes open and yawning, but when she did, Chanyeol's felt his heart melt.

Taehyung smiled and tentatively reached out to touch her face, his finger probing around her cheek as he muttered, "Daddy, where's her teeth? And why does she feel like Honey."

Chanyeol chuckled and murmured, "She doesn't have teeth yet, baby. And yes, her skin is very soft...." Chanyeol trailed off as he continued to admire his little girl, completely obvious to his parents-in-law as he was too wrapped up in his joyous bubble consisting of Taehyung and his daughter.

When all the family had visited and got to see the new addition to the Park/Byun family they announced that they had to go home to get some rest since it was still five in the morning. Chanyeol smiled and told them they would get together soon after settling into a routine of having a new baby, and then they were leaving to go home.

Taehyung had fallen asleep once again on the other side of Baekhyun, and as he snoozed away Chanyeol sat with his legs crossed beneath him, still occupying the end of the bed. A few more minutes passed by when Chanyeol felt Baekhyun start to stir in his sleep.

He glanced at his husband who was tiredly blinking his eyes open against the harsh florescent lights, and when he spotted Chanyeol he smiled. "Hi," he whispered.

Chanyeol smiled back brightly. "Hey, baby. How do you feel?"

Baekhyun sighed. "I'm still a little tired and I can feel the beginning of the pain medication starting to wear off . . ." Baekhyun trailed off, and then he glanced around the room and asked, "Where is she?"

Chanyeol smiled again and glanced down at his arms where his daughter had been resting for nearly an hour and whispered, "Right here."

An array of many different emotions broke across Baekhyun's face as small tears pooled in his eyes and he whispered, "I want to see her."

Chanyeol nodded and stood up to move closer beside Baekhyun. He got back on the bed, sitting on the edge again as he carefully angled his arms for Baekhyun to see her. Baekhyun cooed and covered his mouth as the tears began to fall.

"I have to hold her. Please, Chanyeol, help me hold her," Baekhyun whispered as he tried sitting up, only to grimace from the pain in his abdomen.

Chanyeol gently touched his shoulder and muttered, "Patience, baby. I'm going to lay her on your chest."

Baekhyun nodded eagerly as Chanyeol carefully lifted her to lay across Baekhyun's chest, softly reminding him to support her head. Baekhyun continued to coo as small tears rolled down his cheeks. He kept a firm arm around her small body, his upper arm supporting her head as his other hand reached out to delicately stroke her cheeks.

"Oh my gosh," Baekhyun whispered. "She's so beautiful."

Chanyeol smiled and wound his arm behind Baekhyun's head and pulled him close to kiss his temple. Chanyeol smiled and nozzled his nose into Baekhyun's hair just above his ear as he whispered, "We really made a beautiful baby girl."

Baekhyun smiled brightly and whispered, "We really did," before leaning forward to chastely kiss her forehead. Her eyes fluttered at the small touch and she peered with her eyes half-lidded up at Baekhyun, another small yawn slipping out before her eyes were once again closed. Baekhyun smiled and kissed her again as he slipped his finger into her small hand, he felt a tiny pressure as she grasped his finger; and Baekhyun's heart melted much like Chanyeol's had.

"Luna," Baekhyun whispered. "I love you, my little angel. Welcome to the family."
