It was about a moon and a half since we had our night in the gorge under the guise of a Starclan trip, I was beginning to worry about FreckledLeaf as she was unable to keep anything down, not only this but she was putting on weight at a great rate.
LeafBelly and I went on patrol together, we had become friends ever since she supported us being together, and more often than not her partner was unavailable so she started heading out with me. Her partner did not mind me being with her to hunt as he felt I only had eyes for Freckledwish. He was not wrong; she was all I saw.
We were returning empty pawed, back from patrol, the prey was scarce again, when FreckledWish called out to us, "Hey! Can I see you two in my den?" and she headed for the medicine cat den.
When we entered, FreckledWish invited us to sit down in the side den. I wondered why we were heading there, but I nodded and settled down there. I noticed dirt on my fur, so I decided to start cleaning myself.
FreckledWish mewed her news then, "Guys- I- I think I'm expecting kits..."
I was caught offguard by her news stopping midlick and looked up blushing. Leafbelly did not seem to be bothered by FreckledWishes news, rather was both happy and concerned for us.
"That's amazing but- how are we going to get the kits out- without the clan knowing?" she mewed.
I had been thinking of a solution to this possible question for the moon and a half since we mated, so I suggested, "We could always go on a Starclan trip, as you are due to have one, and come back after the kits are born and say that we found then on the trip."
Freckledwish and Leafbelly looked at me, nodding, "That is a good idea."
