4 Months Later…

"You did wonderful, baby," Shinichi murmured softly into Shiho's hair as he held her against his chest along with their newborn son, in her arms, on the hospital bed.

Shiho sighed in exhaustion and relief. She looked down lovingly at the infant who was squirming around while crying. A lone tear slipped from her eye. Her son finally made his awaiting entrance without any trouble. She endured ten hours of labor to birth her and Shinichi's first child.

"Hello…Kudo Keiichi," Shiho smiled as the tiny baby opened his eyes for the first time.

"Keiichi…," Shinichi echoed, "I like that name."

At that moment the door opened to reveal Kudo Yukiko followed by the nurse.

"Oh he looks so precious!" Yukiko squealed in excitement. She rushed over to her son and daughter-in-law's side. Tears began to stream down her cheeks. "At last, I have a cute grandson! What's his name?"

"Keiichi," the new proud parents said simultaneously. Shiho outstretched her arms towards Yukiko. "Would you like to hold him?"

Yukiko nodded furiously as her grandchild was placed in her arms. 'He's so tiny. He reminds me about the time I had Shin-chan.'

About thirty minutes later, the nurse took their baby back into the hospital's nursery and Yukiko left the room with a promise to return back tomorrow to help Shiho and Keiichi return home.

"Drained much?" Shinichi reached around to intertwine their fingers.

Shiho leaned back as her head settled at the crook of his neck and nodded tiredly, "Very much."

A chuckle rumbled through his chest, "I'm proud of you, you know? Going through all that pain yet you took it like a soldier…minus the insults thrown at me."

"My apologies," she scoffed half-heartedly, brushing her sweaty tendrils from her eyes with her free hand, "But it was your fault for annoying me and passing out a few times."

"Hey now…"

"I'm tired."

Shinichi narrowed his eyes at the interruption but shifted to lay down more comfortably on the bed. Shiho rotated so her head could rest on his chest and wound her arms around his torso. Seconds later, she was unconscious.

"Rest well, love," Shinichi whispered.

7 Months Later…

Shinichi entered the nursery to see his son wide awake in his crib. "Hey there little buddy," he lifted Keiichi into his arms and settled down on a nearby chair.

The boy cooed happily as he was free from his little jail. "Why are you up so late? It's past your bedtime." Shinichi ran his fingers through the seven-month old's curly russet hair with a grin.

Staring at his son he realized how much he resembled him. Keiichi mirrored him except for his eyes. It was a deep indigo color, a combination of his and Shiho's eyes. The boy's chubby hand patted Shinichi's chest with a whine.

"Da da da da," he babbled as he clenched his father's shirt and drew his face closer to nibble on the material.

"Oi, are you teething?" Shinichi pulled away his wet shirt from the boy's grasp and placed his pinky finger on the bottom of his lip, gently prying his mouth open where he saw a little tooth cutting through his gums.

Keiichi whined once more until the sound of footsteps invaded his ears. Big, soulful eyes turned to the source. "Ma ma ma ma," he quickly fidgeted in his father's arms while reaching out for his mother.

"What were you doing?" Shiho asked as she stood in front of Shinichi.

Sighing, the detective got up from his seat and showed what was causing their child mild discomfort, "He can't go to sleep because he's teething. See? There's a tooth growing on the bottom gum."

Shiho shook her head with a 'tsk'. "I'll take care of the problem. Hand him over."

Shinichi passed him over as Shiho brought her hands around his middle and pulled him close to her chest.

Keiichi immediately nuzzled into his mother's neck, "Ma ma," he sighed.

"I think he was whining because he was calling for you rather than having aching gums," Shinichi glared at the boy playfully.

She laughed softly then looked back up to her husband, "You should go ahead and take a shower. I already took mines."

The young man agreed and placed a kiss on top of Keiichi's head.

Fifteen Minutes Later…

Coming from the bathroom after taking a shower, Shinichi returned back into the nursery to find his wife and child fast asleep in the rocking chair. His heart skipped a beat as a warm feeling enveloped him at the scene. He walked over to the pair and carefully lifted Keiichi up from Shiho's arms and placed him delicately in his crib then pulling the blanket over his small body. Next, he tenderly hooked one arm underneath Shiho's knees as the other cradled her back. He carried her bridle style into their bedroom, in their bed.

Shinichi wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed a soft kiss on her lips before following suit into a blissful sleep.
