The Stars Above Us (Shu Sakamaki x OC)

38-Meeting

Hoshi's POV:

It had been a few days since I had Sakura and I now stood next to her crib, cooing as I rocked it gently, her green eyes looking at me and the toy with interest. She wore a cute onesie that said 'Daddy's Girl' with daisies surrounding it. Shu stood next to me, his arm looped around my waist, face buried in my neck.

"I'm tired," he whined.

"Well, you have to do your part dummy. I'm not gonna wake up every night to change her diaper. I already have to breastfeed her in the night anyways."

"But I need to sleep."

"This is your baby, Shu. Stop complaining."

I felt him pout against my neck, but nodded, shutting up. I heard a knock echo throughout the mansion and I smiled, knowing who it was. I bent down and picked Sakura up, random giggles coming from her.

"They're here. Let's head down."

Shu nodded, letting go of me and opening the door for me. I walked towards the living room, everyone gathered around. I saw talking excitedly to Subaru, who was trying his best to ignore him. None of Shu's brothers, excluding Reiji and Subaru, and my brothers have seen Sakura yet. Their eyes turned to see me and Shu walking down the stairs, a tired look on both of our faces. I beamed down at them, Sakura letting out random babbles as I neared. Kou was the first to approach, his face showing anticipation.

"Let me hold her!" Kou practically yelled.

"Shut up, Kou. You're too loud." I hissed.

"Sorry," he muttered.

I sighed, instructing Kou on how to carry a baby before placing Sakura in his arms.

"What's her name again?" Ayato asked curiously, standing next to Kou.

"Sakura. Sakura Sakamaki."

Sakura giggled as soon as I mentioned her name, grabbing onto Kou's bangs and tugging on it with all her baby strength.

"Ow, what the f-"

I covered his mouth, giving him a warning look. He apologized quietly and smiled down at the baby, cooing softly. I looked at Subaru who stood in the corner, giving him a small smile as I urged him towards us.

"What?" he said roughly.

I grabbed Sakura from Kou and placed her in Subaru's arms, the albino's facial expression turning into one of surprise.

"W-what?!"

"Aww, I knew you would look cute carrying a baby." I gushed, taking a quick picture with my phone.

"S-shut up," he said, cheeks pink.

Sakura cooed and grabbed onto Subaru's key necklace, fiddling with it in her small hands.

"Seems like she likes your fashion sense." I teased.

He grumbled but looked at the baby with a soft look in his eyes. I smiled softly at the scene before looking at Yuma and he came forward, looking impatient.

"Calm down bud." I chuckled.

Subaru carefully handed her to Yuma who had his mouth open in wonder. He looked at her from all kinds of angles, accidentally jerking her a bit too hard. She started crying and Yuma panicked, handing her back to me. I sighed and rocked her, the cries instantly dying down.

"You're too rough, Yuma. This is a baby you're holding you know?"

"Sorry," he muttered.

Ayato came up, his green eyes twinkling.

"Let Oresama hold her!"

I rolled my eyes, placing her in his arms gently. He grinned, imitating the rocking I was doing earlier. Sakura grabbed his poorly tied tie and pulled it, nearly choking him. I broke out into laughter as he glared at the little girl.

"I'll go next," Ruki said, pulling her out of his arms before he could even protest.

As expected, he did it very stiffly, an awkward air around him.

"She's not gonna hurt you." I teased.

"I know that," he growled.

"Relax."

He nodded, the tension released from his shoulders. He looked down, his cold eyes instantly becoming warm as Sakura stared up at him.

"She's cute," he muttered.

"Of course she is," Shu said proudly.

I rolled my eyes, leaning my head on his shoulder. I looked at Reiji, his eyes catching mine.

"Hold her," I demanded.

"And why should I?"

"You're her uncle. You have no say in this. Now do it, Reiji."

He sighed as Ruki handed her to him, his face turned up into a scowl. Sakura laid her eyes on him, giggling and grabbing his glasses.

"Child!" he said.

Sakura only stuck her tongue out and blew raspberries, spit flying on his face. Shu choked on laughter and I elbowed him, apologizing.

"It's fine..." Reiji said quietly, watching the child with wary eyes.

Our daughter giggled, grabbing onto Reiji's finger. I could tell he softened at this action and he gently grabbed his glasses, putting them back on.

"Ooh, I want to hold her~," Laito said.

I eyed him cautiously but reluctantly agreed and Laito held her close to his face, cooing. The little girl knocked his fedora off with her hands, surprising Laito. A light blush dusted his cheeks.

"My, my, what a cutie! When you get older-"

"Don't finish that sentence, Laito," Shu said.

I grabbed her quickly, giving him a small glare.

"I would like to hold her next," Kanato said, suddenly appearing next to me.

I looked at Shu and he sighed, nodding. I handed her to Kanato, watching extra closely. They seemed to stare at each other before he abruptly handed her back to me, walking away. I looked confusedly at his back but shrugged it off as Azusa walked forward.

"It's your favorite Mukami uncle, Sakura," I whispered.

I put her in his arms, watching excitedly as Sakura became much more vocal and squirming in his arms.

"Oh my, she's excited," I said.

Her small hands touched Azusa's face, placing a small kiss on his cheek. I whipped out my phone at lightning speed, taking a picture of the moment.

"That's not fair! I want a kiss too." Kou whined.

Azusa giggled, his eyes the brightest I've ever seen them as he whispered to Sakura. I felt Shu kiss my temple as he stood behind me, his chin resting on my head as his arms wrapped around my waist.

"I think our little girl is surrounded by some good people." I hummed.

He nodded against my head, watching the scene.

"She's gonna be the light of this house. I can tell."

Yui held her last, her face glowing. That's how we spent the rest of the night, all the brothers arguing about who's going to be the best uncle while I and Shu watched, entertained as Sakura slept soundly in my arms.
