Pebblestep walked into the nursery exhausted. She had spent the day in the territory with her mate Fuzzystar. He has been so busy lately that they have not really had time to just hang out, like old times. Pebblestep squeezed into the nursery. We really need to make this bigger she thought. As she started heading towards her nest in the back she noticed Greycloud. The poor queen had lost her entire litter 2 days ago and she was devastated. Pebblestep remembers the day the queen announced she was expecting kits like it was yesterday, she was so happy. Now she barely moved, barely ate, rarely spoke. Greycloud's mate Stoneweed was curled around her, doing his best to comfort the light grey she-cat. The dark grey tabby tom licked his mate on the head once before looking Pebblestep in the eyes. His green eyes then looked at her swollen belly and she instinctively moved her tail to block his view. Stoneweed met her gaze again with an unreadable expression, Pebblestep looked away and went to her nest with her back facing him. -----------------------------Time skip----------------------------------- Pebblestep is not a first time mother, she's had one previous litter before this one but with what happened with Greycloud, she was a nervous reck. Thankfully her two new kits were healthy. Pebblestep licked both her daughters on the head, smiling warmly at them as they nursed. She heard the pat pat of a cat walking and looked up to see her mate at the entrance of the nursery. Fuzzystar frowned slightly when he looked at the two kits but as quickly as it had come it was replaced with a warm smile. Pebblestep immediately understood, Fuzzy star was hoping for a hairless kit like himself. The first leader of Moleclan was a hairless cat and since then most of their leaders have been hairless. I'm sorry Fuzzystar but I knew the second I found I was expecting that these kits would have fur Pebblestep thought as Fuzzy star licked her on the head. "They're absolutely beautiful just like their mother" Fuzzy star said, as he curled up around her. She purred but she couldn't stop the guilt she felt. Pebblestep knew that it was probably useless but she made herself a promise that no one would find out about her secret, her mistake. She would treat them the same as her other kits and she would make sure that these kits would grow up happy, no matter what.
