“I don't get it.
I had you in my tummy for
nine months and you dare to be an
exact copy of your daddy, hm?
How come you even got his hairstyle?”

Kenma chuckled softly as he ran his
hand over his newborn child's head,
feeling the soft fluff of black fuzzy
hair that looked awfully similar
to Kuroo's bed hair.

Thanks to all the times of suffering from
heartburn during the blonde's pregnancy,
their son now had quite a lot of black
hair to offer for his daddy to dishevel
it at every possible opportunity.

“That's not true.
His eyes are a bit lighter than mine,
he got the perfect mix there.”

Kuroo smiled softly as he traced his
finger over his son's tiny foot that was
sticking out of the blanket bundle,
his heart skipping a beat when baby
Nao wriggled his toes with a whine.

“Oh wow, now I feel much better.
At least you got my surname, hm?
You're a Kozume.”

The tiny boy whined when his papa
pressed a small kiss on his forehead
and fluttered his big caramel-colored
eyes open to stare at Kenma.

He stuck his tiny tongue out and
grunted softly, making his father coo.

“You're very cute.
I haven't forgiven you for the kicks
in my ribs yet but you're very cute.”

“He is.
Athletic and adorable, hm?”

Kuroo got up and leaned over to press
a gentle kiss on their little one's squishy
cheek just to earn a whine in protest.

“And he's not a fan of physical affection,
I guess that's something he got
from his papa, hm?”

The ravenette chuckled and pecked
his boyfriend's cheek quickly before he
sat back on the edge of the mattress.

“Nah, he's just sleepy and full of milk,
aren't ya?”

And as if he was agreeing with his papa,
baby Nao only grunted cutely and gave
his parents a heart-melting yawn to
prove his father's words.

Getting him to drink his very first milk
had been a bit difficult for the small boy
and Kenma at first, both unfamiliar with
the way breastfeeding works and the
blonde being very flustered about
feeding his son in front of his boyfriend
as if he hadn't been cut open in front
of Kuroo just a few hours ago.

“If he stays that quiet and calm,
meeting his weird uncles shouldn't
be a problem, hm?”

The ravenette smiled when their
little smacked his lips cutely as he
moved his little, chubby hands to
happily grab his daddy's finger.

“I hope so, I don't think I'd want
to give him to anyone though.”

“That's okay, you don't have to.
I also told them to only say hi quickly,
you need rest and so does this
small cutie here.”

Kenma nodded in agreement and
booped baby Nao's button nose gently
when the tiny boy looked at him.

But a soft knock on the door disturbed the
peaceful atmosphere of the small family.

Kuroo immediately got up and carefully
peeled his son's hand off his finger,
earning a rather unhappy whine for
that but giving his son a peck on the
cheek in return before he pressed a soft
kiss on his boyfriend's forehead too.

“You ready, kitten?”

“Mhm, as long as they're quiet.”

The small blonde gave his loved one a
beautiful smile as he cupped his cheek
for a moment before he returned his
attention to his baby.

When Kuroo opened the door,
a big smile immediately bloomed on

his face at the sight of their team,
Yaku carrying a big bouquet of flowers,
Lev holding two cute balloons and
Fukunaga carrying a freshly
baked apple pie.

“Hey captain,
congratulations on the little bean!”

His teammates congratulated him
with big smiles but Kuroo immediately
shushed them a bit, gaze traveling
behind him for a short moment to
see if it had disturbed his son.

“Thank you so much.
I'll let you go to Kenma and the
baby but please be very quiet,
baby's sensitive to noises.”

It was kinda cute to see their captain
already showing off his dad protection
mode but they understood it and nodded
in agreement, gazes desperately trying
to catch a glimpse of what was
hidden behind Kuroo.

But the moment the ravenette opened
the door fully to let them in, all the boys
could manage where soft gasps and
coos at the sight of Kenma holding a
little whimpering bundle on his arms.

And the small blonde gladly allowed
his boyfriend to pick their son up so
he could show them to their
team a bit better.

Because of the fresh surgery wound,
Kenma wasn't allowed to lift or actually
hold anything and he wasn't able to get
or sit up on his own either.

Which was why he was very glad for
those new hospital beds that could be
moved into a sitting position and having
Nao resting on his thighs had worked
out well earlier too.

“Everyone, meet our son.
Kozume Naoki.”

The was the biggest smile resting on
Kuroo's face as he rocked their baby
softly, eyes staring at him with pure
love and overflowing happiness.

And all their teammates had encircled
him in a matter of seconds just to get
a good view of the small, whining boy.

“So it's a boy?”

“Yeah.”

“Congratulations, he's so cute.”

Lev tried not to squeal too loud
when Nao's gaze wandered around
and he stuck his tiny tongue out cutely.

“He is, got it from his papa.”

“But he doesn't look like
me at all though.”

The team chuckled softly at Kenma's
comment as they turned to him when
Kuroo walked back to the bed to sit
down beside his boyfriend.

“So, how is it being a parent?
How was the birth?”

“Well, so far it's pretty nice since
he's a calm baby. But I'm still kinda
drugged and didn't need to change
his diaper yet, so.. Ask Kuroo.”

“It's very disgusting but he has a
very cute face so I'm willing to do
it again every single time.”

Kuroo chuckled and pressed
a soft kiss on his son's head when
Nao grunted softly.

“And for the birth..
I do not recommend it, it's very
painful and I had to get a c-section..
If you don't want to risk getting a
huge scar and the feeling of someone
rummaging in your intestines,
I'd give you the advice of
using better protection.”

The blonde chuckled embarrassed
as he reached out to run his hand
over his son's head.

“But you did so good though.”

Kuroo smiled softly and leaned down
to press a soft kiss on Kenma's temple,
making him whine.

“Kuroo..
Not in front of everyone.”

“Kitten, I'm holding the proof right
in my arms that we did more than
sharing temple kisses and everyone

can see him, you're hilarious sometimes.”

The older male chuckled at his
boyfriend's cuteness and carefully
placed their son back in his papa's
arms when Kenma pouted.

And it only needed one adorable
yawn from baby Nao to make
everyone's hearts melt.

“Ah, there's something we all
got for the little one!”

Yaku suddenly realized as he turned
to Inuoka who just remembered that he
carried the little package for a reason.

It was a small red box with a white
bow on top, a cute card with a bear
holding a big bouquet of colorful
flowers printed on it added to the gift.

“Kenma, do you..
Ah, your hands are busy.”

Inuoka chuckled shyly when the blonde
carefully waved his newborn son's tiny,
chubby hands and gave his
teammate a soft smile.

“Kuroo's his dad, he can do it too.”

The ravenette nodded with a proud
smile, maybe more proud of the fact
that he was a dad now than that
Kenma was convinced he'd be
able to open the gift.

‘Congratulations on the little one
from the Nekoma Volleyball Club!’

Everyone had signed the little card as
well and Kuroo tried his best not to show
how touched he was by the little gesture.

This card would definitely wander
to the shelf in Kenma's room where
they had already put the
sonograms of their son.

But the moment he opened the box
and lifted the tiny onesie up to show
it to his boyfriend, Kuroo couldn't
hide his emotions anymore.

The small onesie was red and in the
design of their volleyball uniform,
the number 15 printed on both sides.

Kuroo's and Kenma's number combined.

“Even if he will grow up not liking
volleyball, he'll always be the first
Nekoma team baby. Although I'm
pretty sure.. With you two as his parents,
he'll at least give this sport a try, hm?”

Kenma chuckled at his sniffling and
nodding boyfriend and leaned forward
with a wince to press a soft kiss
on his son's forehead.

“We'll make sure about that,
thank you so much. It's a very
thoughtful gift and I'm pretty sure
this lil guy will love it. Right?”

The blonde gave his teammates a
thankful smile before he booped Nao's
button nose, earning a cute whine.

“It's perfect, the idea is so cute.”

Kuroo laughed softly as he wiped his
tears when Yamamoto patted his back.

“We're glad you like it.
And as much as we'd want to
stay longer, I think Kenma
deserves some rest. Plus..
There's three more people outside
who want to say hi to this cutie.”

“Huh?”

But their teammates only smiled knowingly before they bid
their goodbyes.

“You okay with more guests?
Or should I tell them to come
back later or tomorrow?”

Kuroo worriedly turned to his
boyfriend who was busy playing
with their baby's tiny hands, a tired
but beautiful smile on his face as he
got the cutest little grunts from Nao.

“I think I know who it is.
And it's okay, he's been so excited
to see this squishy bean here plus
I'd like to see him too.”

The blonde looked up for a brief
moment to give his boyfriend a
reassuring smile and chuckled when
the older male gave him a thumbs up.

And he knew he was right the
moment a mop of orange hair
appeared in the doorway.

“Kenma!”

“Kuroo!”

Bokuto and Hinata squealed at the
same time just to receive a nice slap
on the back of their heads from Akaashi
who immediately shushed them.

“Quiet, you dorks.
There's a little baby!”

“Ah, right. Sorry.”

The two let their heads hang in shame,
making Kenma and Kuroo chuckle.

“It's alright,
he's a tough little guy.”

“It's a boy?”

And Akaashi couldn't help but snort
when his boyfriend and Hinata had
immediately returned to their
expressive selves, their eyes sparkling
and the biggest smiles on their faces
at the new information.

“Yeah.”

“So cute!
What's his name?”

The orange-haired boy asked curiously,
briefly looking at Akaashi as if he was
waiting for permission to get closer
to Kenma and the baby.

“Naoki.
Kozume Naoki.”

Kuroo smiled proudly as he took
his son from his boyfriend, earning
an unhappy whine and a pout similar
to his papa's from the tiny boy.

“He really looks like you, bro.”

Bokuto gasped when the ravenette
presented the tiny, grunting
bean to his friends.

“Yeah but he definitely has
Kenma's personality.
He's not that fond of new people,
you should have seen him when his
grandparents tried to hold him.
You threw such a tantrum, hm?
Until you were back in papa's arms.”

Kuroo smiled softly down at his little son
when Nao blinked up at him innocently,
grasping onto his daddy's finger when
Tetsuro booped his little palm.

“I understand him though.
Imagine leaving your dark, warm,
cozy home to be exposed to a bright,
cold world and suddenly there's so
many new people staring at you
and wanting to hold you.
And all you want is milk, sleep
and to be with your parents.”

There was something unfamiliar
but so unbelievably gentle in Akaashi's
eyes as he watched the small baby's
eyes flutter close, his hand blindly
searching for his boyfriend's
to intertwine them.

Seeing tiny Nao like this,
snuggled up in his father's arms
and ready to drift off to dreamland
again made him realize how innocent
this small human was.

Without knowing it, there was
so much awaiting him.

And without knowing it,
he already had so much.

Two wonderful parents who loved
him endlessly and would fight the
whole world for him if needed.

And a bunch of weird uncles who
will spoil him rotten in the future,
there was no doubt about that.

There was a whole life full of love
and fun waiting for him and everyone
in this room couldn't wait to be
part of the tiny boy's journey.
