*6 months later*
" Hmm... I wanna sleep more" Hinata whined as Asahi drew the curtains and sunlight brightened the room.
" No baby, it's today. We can't afford to be late." Asahi said and Hinata jolted up and the sharp pain he felt sent him lying back down almost immediately. He glared at Asahi and the later just laughed sheepishly.
The plan they had today was to surpise Haruki and Takahara with a gender reveal party. It was just going to be a small party with few trusted family members. They had already contacted James and asked for the gender of the angel, he didn't give them until his wife stepped in.
It was decided that Hinata, Albert and Asahi would be the ones to reveal it to everyone. The theme they decided to go for after endless arguements was "Prince and princesses."
------------------------------------------------------
They finally arrived at Takahara's house. The venue was their *Haruki and Takahara's* house. Hinata made Masayoshi and Nagamori take them out while Riku helped with the preparation along with Albert, Hinata and Asahi.
They were done in an hour as there was not really much to do. The chosen colour for girl was Red and the colour for boy was White and Gold.
The garden was filled with vibrant colours of white, gold and red. In the invitation card sent to the guests, they were told to wear Red shirts if they think it will be a girl, or White and Gold shirts if they think it will be a boy.
" Can't sit still huh?" Albert teased as he watched Hinata pacing the area.
" I'm nervous and excited all at the same time." He pouted in reply.
" Don't worry, everything will be fine. You worked really hard for this baby bro. Haruki will definitely be happy."
Hinata smiled and wiped the tears that were beginning to form at the corner of his eyes.
--------------------------------
" They're here." Riku said as Haruki and Takahara were brought in blindfolded.
Hinata, Leon, Nagamori, Alexander, Masayoshi and Riku wore Red. While Asahi, Sol, Albert, James, wore White and Gold.
" What is going on guys. I'm sure you guys are planning something." Haruki said sternly, but the joy in his voice could barely be hidden.
" Do it"
The blindfold was finally off and Haruki couldn't believe his eyes and Takahara shook his head, half amused, half shocked.
The atmosphere was set with carefully chosen decorations, the shades of Red and White and Gold was used to reflect the gender colours. The tables were themed tablecloths and sprinkles with confetti, while banners with Prince and Princess were hung across the walls. Balloons arches, fairy lights, and photo backgrounds were used to create a warm and festive environment.
" Good evening, everyone!
First off, thank you all for being here today — family, friends, and everyone who's come to celebrate this beautiful moment. I'm your host for today — the proud younger brother of the man of the hour — Haruki!
Now, I've seen my brother go through a lot of stages in life — from sneaking snacks at midnight to becoming a responsible soon to be husband and soon… a dad! It's honestly amazing to see how far he's come, and today, we get to witness another unforgettable chapter for him and Takahara.
So please, everyone, give a big round of applause and warm welcome to the soon-to-be parents — Haruki and Takahara." Hinata said proudly as he dragged his awestruck brother and brother in law to the centre.
Before Haruki could say anything, Hinata gave them a run through or the activities and Haruki couldn't stop the tears that were falling.
" Brother, what's wrong, are you not happy with this? I would call it of..." Hinata panicked but was cut off by Haruki's tight hug.
" Th...thanks guys..... really, thanks." Haruki choked on his sobs, still holding Hinata. Leon went over to them and hugged his babies. Before his own tears could start spilling, Sol gently pried them apart. The party needed to continue.
" So Haru, you and Takahara have to pick one of the two badges each. Red for girl, White and Gold for boy."
Haru picked White and Gold, and Takahara picked Red. Everyone chuckled cause they definitely thought it would be the opposite.
After that, they all divided to 'Team Prince' and 'Team Princess'.
" Before we start, you're all going to participate in some light-hearted activities designed by no one else but me *claps * to boost the anticipation." The MC eagerly said. He was clearly excited, you could say he was more excited than the parents themselves.
They were engaged in common games like 'guessing the baby's gender based on old wives' tales casting votes using stickers, and signing a prediction board.' There was "Team Prince" and "Team Princess" badges allowing them to visibly show their guesses.
Snacks and drinks followed the theme too - cupcakes decorated with Red, White and Gold, coloured punch, sweet tables, and personalised cookies shaped like baby items.
After what felt like hours, it was a finally time for the important part, the reveal itself . Hinata chose their garden and different methods for the reveal. The garden was a wide open area, almost as big as the garage - the garage is crazy large - so this also be counted as an outdoor event.
The first one was a large balloon filled with red, white and gold coloured confetti, that Haruki and Takahara would pop.
" You guys should step forward, for the final big reveal." Hinata cheered and the others clapped.
They both stood in front of the balloon and everyone gathered in anticipation.
" Okay let's do this," Haruki said as he placed his hand on Takahara's, they took the nail to burst the balloon together and.... BOOM
Multicoloured...?
Everyone looked more shocked than disappointed before it finally dawned to them that they had been played.
" You little rascal...." Haruki managed through clenched teeth as Hinata burst out into a hearty laughter.
" Oh....oh my God, you guys should have seen your faces, * hic* " he continued laughing as they all fell back.
" Do you guys like my surprise *chuckle* well you guys didn't expect me to reveal it immediately did ya?... Okay okay, time for the reveal. * Signals secretly to Asahi to go*"
A maid brought a massive white cake with white decorations all over.
" So what we're gonna do now is, the cake reveal.... reveal." Everyone chuckled at how cute he was as he forgot what to say.
Haru and Takahara came forward and both held the cake knife together and began to cut the cake. The first layer had red cream and Team Princess were beginning to dance in joy but as they continued on to the second layer, the laughter turned to surprise? cause the cream was white and everyone started murmuring in confusion, the third layer as you would have probably guessed by now was white.
" I didn't think my own baby's gender reveal will take too much energy from me." Haruki sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose, and Takahara chuckled at Hinata's cute behaviour.
" C'mon Hina, stop teasing us already." Leon whined at his naughty son and they all agree in unison.
" Leave that rascal to me, I'll deal with him right now." Haruki said as he started chasing Hinata who ran behind everyone trying to avoid his brother's touch.
Amongst all the commotion, a loud BANG was heard and they were all shocked. They looked towards the source of the sound and in the sky was .... coloured powder. Fireworks were shot with the same colour. There was laughter everywhere as they all cheered in joy. An airplane then flew over their head saying Welcome to the family...
