It had been a long day, the clan had been in shambles upon their return and the amount of work that needed to be done was seemingly endless. She had spent long days sending out patrol, healing the injured and sick, working to restore their herb garden, ensuring there was enough food for the clan to eat, searching for Honestpaw's spirit, teaching new Janus and a new soothsayer. It left little time for herself...
But every night she carrved out time to spend with Skipstep, putting everything on the backburner until the sun would rise again in the morning. Her feet drug across the ground as she eased into the nest that they shared. It wasn't anything fancy, but it was comfortable and allowed her to sleep well. She nuzzled againt her mate, a quite purr rumbling in her throat. In here it didn't matter what all was going on outside, it was just the two of them... or was it?
By now she knew the signs like that back of her paw, and when she had woke up nauseous that morning and thrown up it made it rather clear. Skipstep had already left to get a head start on his duties for the day, so she had managed to keep her little secret a surprise so far "How was your day?" she asked, leaning to groom the fur around his neck
Skipstep let out a sigh, chuckling softly. "Busy, but good." He told her shifting to let her continue sighing as he settled beside her, tail twining with hers.
"And yours?" He asked turning to nose along the top of her head. "I imagine you were just as busy," He said with a chuckle.
But it was good to be busy. They were back home, they... had a long way to go to mend fences with the family that Bloodycrow had stolen from them. And some of their family was unlikely to return to SunClan.
But, at the end of the day he had Littlestar by his side and they were together. He'd take the busy and tiring days of running the clan over the panick stricken days searching for his mate and being alone stuck in a prison and then in a new clan for a time.
It was just good to be together and home, despite everything else.

She wasn't sure how he did it.
In a few simple words, it was like all her worries were left to be scattered by the wind. She nuzzled into his fur, taking a moment just to appreciate his scent before responding. As long as they were together, she felt comfortable enough to let down her guard. To just let her emotions flow without having to uphold some image that she portrayed to the rest of the clan
"Busy, but it's about to become a whole lot more so"
She snuggled up against him, so that he was holding her with his paws over her stomach, not really explaining what she meant by the statement at first. Was now the right time to tell him? Maybe not, but she couldn't help herself. A playful giggle escaped her lips
"Before to long we are going to have a lot of little paws running around our den"
Skipstep blinked tilting his head when she said it was about to become a lot more busy.
Then his eyes lit up as she mentioned little paws. "Kits? You're expecting kits?!" He asked a note of excitement in his voice. "Oh Littlestar that's wonderful!" He purred, bending his head to nuzzle her belly, before pulling up to pepper her face with licks and kisses. "We're going to be parents again!"
"How long have you known? How far along?" He asked pulling back to look at her.

"I have suspected for a little while now, pretty soon after we returned here. However, I didn't want to get your hopes up until I was sure"
She retuned his kisses with her own, rather excited by the prospects of a second chance. It would complicate things, but she couldn't see this pregnancy as anything other than a blessing. SunClan was slowly recovering, and with it so was she. She couldn't hide her scars, but every day she was getting a little bit stronger. Gaining a little weight, her fur begining to shine, weezing a little less. She knew she would never escape the horrors that had happened to her fully, but it didn't mean that she couldn't try.
Yet there was a dark thought in the back of her mind... what if this was what IT wanted. To have her so close to being happy before ripping it out of her claws. No she wouldn't let that happen, she couldn't. It was the final push that she had needed to make up her mind, she was going to have to fight.
Skipstep purred. "Wonderful, that's plenty of time to prepare." He chuckled. "With new kits I'll have an excuse to go prowl around twolegplace, find some gifts for them and for you. We had to leave your nice blanket behind in DayClan, I can get you a new one that'll keep you and the kits nice and warm."
"Might even try to get something for the older ones, make a day out of it." He said. "A picnic... like we had before." He said softly.
Though once he said it he hesitated. The picnic brought up some... not so happy memories. After all it had been a good time until... Bloody had ruined it.

Littlestar leaned into skipstep, pressing her nose to his forehead at the hesitation.
It was hard not to remember that day, how she had been drug away from him and her screaming kits. They had to watch as her ribs were shattered, a mood carved upon her head, and then being thrown into prison for her 'crimes'. She had allowed it to happen, having predicted that Bloody would overturn her and potentially even take her life. It was a sacrifice that she had to make to reign in the Sun God who had become so currupt.
"I think they would like that, but perhaps call it something other than a picnic"
She slowly pulled away rest her weary head on her paws "I worry that they will be angry, and think we are trying to replace them"
"Which is why I think doing something before the new litter is here is important," Skipstep said softly. "Make it clear we love them very much still, and we'll have room for them and these new little ones."
"But you're right, absolutely not calling it a picnic." He said with a laugh. "Perhaps then it'll go a bit better." He said.

"Do you think they will come with us?" uncertainty creeping into her voice
Perfectstorm had made it clear that he hated her and everything that she stood for. Ferventprayer couldn't even be in the same space as her. Balancedscale had yet to even speak a single word, and it was only resilientbloom that she had been able to from any sort of relationship with thanks to the Temple Of The Sun "They have been through a lot, and don't see us as their parents. It doesn't change how much I love them, but I'm afriad if we push them to far it will push them further away from us" she paused trying to collect her own thoughts "but an invitation to this sounds nice... We just need to be careful"
Skipstep paused at her words, reality returning and he sat down an uncertain expression on his face.
Then he took a breath and let it out. "I think for our kits Bloody stole, we must simply do what we can to show them we love them."
"It will be hard," He went on draping his tail over her back. "We'll invite them and there's a chance they may rebuke us. But we must give them time to process, and support them even if from afar."
The reality was, it was very likely they would see these new siblings as a replacement for the litter they'd lost. But hopefully with Lionpride, Goldengrace, Fernskip, Sunnysmiles and other members of their family, it might help the stolen ones be reassured of their place in the family.

Littlestar pressed her forehead to his, knowing that he was right but still hating the reality of the situation. It was so hard for her to hold back and give them space when she just wanted to pull them tight and never let go "Perfectstorm is especially distant... I...I let him out of prison today" she hadn't asked for his approval ahead of time, and honestly she hadn't really been planning it. She just couldn't take the thought of him being in there for any longer "He hates me" it was more fo a whimper this time unable to keep up the facade she showed to the rest of the world "I don't know that I will ever be able to heal the wounds inflicted upon his heart" she tipped her head up "maybe you ill be able to reach him"
