"I'm coming, Foxbite!" Pebblewhisper mewed. He chuckled. Foxbite's happiness made him happy, too. Pebblewhisper had never seen her this happy before, and he liked Foxbite's smile. He trotted up to join the other cats.

Foxbite paced around Pebblewhisper and Owlstar a bit impatiently as they walked. Her movements were still graceful but with the giddiness of an excited apprentice. She had no clue why she was so happy. She was usually so sad especially around her SwampClan clanmates. For once, she was enjoying her patrol. She wanted to run ahead and jump but knew better. Pangs of homesickness hit her again but she quickly shook them off with a happy smile. She doubted anything could ruin her good mood.

As they paced along Talon tree. They eventually reached the Snowclan/Swampclan border. Owlstar meowed, "Are you cold foxbite it is a bit cold here", as he got closer to her to keep her warm.

Pebblewhisper brushed himself against Foxbite, and licked her shoulder affectionately. Why he was feeling so happy, Pebblewhisper did not know. It was the happiest he had been since he was a kit, and he felt young and playful like an apprentice. Pebblewhisper felt as if he could keep running forever. Especially with Foxbite. He thought.

Foxbite felt a bit uncomfortable under both of the young tom's attention. "I'm going to go check over there..." she meowed dashing through the bushes, her bushy tail disappearing among them. She realized as she walked that her leader and deputy seemed a bit unwilling to work together and hoped they wouldn't claw each others ears off while she was gone.

(At a different time..)
Foxbite padded slowly beside her mate, a look of worry in her eyes. He was feeling well enough to take a walk but she didn't want him hurt. She had tried desperately to make him stay but he wouldn't. Affection shone brightly off her and she purred lightly. "Stupid furball..." she mewed playfully.

Though Pebblewhisper's eyes sparkled playfully, he did not reply. He was thinking about something. After a long period of silence, Pebblewhisper spoke. "Foxbite, I need to tell you something..."

Foxbite's gaze instantly turned serious. "What is it?" She mewed worriedly, intertwining her tail with his. She hoped nothing was wrong.

"Well, you see..." Pebblewhisper started. He didn't know how to tell her this. "The thing is..." Pebblewhisper thought for a moment, then finally mewed, "Foxbite, I sort of... I want to have kits." He cleared his voice. "You see, ever since my mother abandoned me, I'd always wanted to be a good parent, to make up for my mother's wrongdoing. But then I realized that I don't just want kits just to use them, I want kits because... Because they're so kind, and innocent, and playful. Because they'll make me realize that life has a meaning, that it's worth living. They'll make me happy... like you do."

Foxbite stood in a blur of mixed emotions. Kits sounded absolutely wonderful but there were so many worries. "I would love to have kits with you Pebblewhisper..." she said in a far less subdued and enthusiastic tone than she would of liked. She would of jumped for joy if it wasn't for her strong worries. "But what about Owlstar? What if he treats our kits unfairly?" She asked, pacing some. "And more importantly, what if one of us... Dies... And they're left alone?" She had to gulp down the word die and said it like a sickness. The thought of ever losing Pebblewhisper or leaving her unborn kits alone was more than she could take and for more than a few seconds it made her dizzy.

Pebblewhisper nuzzled Foxbite. "Just let me show you what will happen to that mangy fleabag Owlstar if he lays a claw on our kit." he growled. "And don't worry... about.... you know. Most likely, it won't happen. I think me and you just worry so much because that's what happened to us..."

At Pebblewhisper's soft reassurance, Foxbite relaxed and was filled with giddy and excited emotions. "I can't wait to have kits! Your going to make a great Father," she purred, happiness radiating off her in waves. "Do you think they're going to look like us?" she asked hopefully.

"I hope they look like you. You're the most beautiful cat in all of the Clans." Pebblewhisper mewed. "Just think, we'll get to teach them everything, how to hunt, how to fight- It'll be so fun!" He touched his tail to Foxbite's shoulder.

Foxbite felt her ears warm up at the compliment and purred lightly. "They'll be as strong and brave as their Father I bet. Hopefully with a heart like him too." she purred happily. Despite her cheery smile, doubt crept beneath her skin. For some reason, she was still scared that Owlstar would harm her kits. No one would think it strange if he decided to mentor one, Pebblewhisper being his deputy after all. But who knew what damage he could cause.
