Chapter eight

I flew to North's clutching my chest as I flew over the towns, cities and villages. I may have or have not made some storms on the way but that was something I didn't wander on.

Do I know the Bunny?

No, this doe doesn't know a thing about him other than the eggs, easter and chocolate. Sad. I made it into view of the workplace seeing it through the snow. Flying to the window Sandy and Tooth would fly through I sat on the edge seeing everyone there looking anxious and alittle worried. About me, I sighed not wanting to alert them of me being there, but having to do so.

"Hey everyone!" I called down plastering a smile, it wasn't hard making a fake smile look real, it was a gift, I can easily look happy when I didn't want to. They sharply looked up to me "ya gumby, you wor-" I threw the shoe with his name on it at him glaring quickly then smiled "I had to cause a storm two, winter" I shrugged rolling my eyes as if they'd understand. Putting my free hand on my belly then suddenly remembered and actually smiling I flew down to Tooth and Sandy.

"Look, I gotten bigger" I lifted my hoodie showing pure white skin, my belly was alitte bigger than usual and a faint hue of pinkish-purple. Tooth cooed wanting to touch but knowing better than to and Sandy was looking fondly at the belly. "What?" Bunny hopped closer hearing him from behind me, listening to the little things I haven't heard before, his smell getting stronger as he got closer. Sandy and Tooth moved making room for the buck who crouched reached a paw out but stopped as I stiffened clutching my sweater, he looked up hurt and worried "what's wrong love?" I hesitantly smiled then grabbed his paw slowly bringing it to my belly.

The look on his face was full of awe as he moved his hand around my cool belly "it feels faintly warm..." he closed his eyes still feeling it, warm? when have I actually been warm? Bunny's hand froze in the middle of the bump his eyes widening, the action surprisingly I moved away from his touch scared sensing something was off...

"Four.." he said faintly as his eyes watered, confused and scared I flew up alittle covering my belly hugging it "four what?" the guardians stood motionless waiting for something. The pooka looked at me his eyes filled with love and happiness "four kits" he said smiling a toothy smile. "F-four kits!" I said floating back hugging my belly, how does he know this!? that very thought brought me right back to the sadness that resulted of despair.

(LISTEN TO DARK SIDE - KELLY CLARKSON ON REPEAT!) ... do it!

Taking quick breaths I thought of another thing like HOW AM I GOING TO DELIVER THEM!? and WHY SO MANY?! Noticing my panicking North turned to me snapping out of it "Jack, you alright?" I turn sharply to him starring at him as if he asked me if I was okay after being shot.

"No! How am I going to deliver them? And why so many? And how can I carry for BUNNIES!?" I was hyperventilating panicking and worrying about the kits scared for their lives. I looked around trying to find comfort and Bunny taking notice of a doe's search for comfort opened his arms. But Jack being Jack, not liking a strangers touch floated farther back "Jacky" Bunny said hurt "come here love" hesitating I floated a little forward then stopped.

Bunny looking at him, his eyes full of love "I love you Jacky, everything is going to be fine" hearing what I needed I zoomed to his arms trying to calm down by listening to his beating heart. "I love you too" I said crying for thinking that he was a stranger, but in reality he was a buck who loved me and will protect me and if I ever wanted to know about him I can just ask.

Eyes filled with tears I slowly wrapped my arms around his middle "I love you so much Aster" I breathed feeling the lump in my throat subside "and I love you Jack, I'll love you forever mate" I cried harder finally letting myself relax because I knew everything will be okay.
