Authors note: I hope to get this out by tonight, it's 11:16 pm here in Norway, really windy and rainy. Perfect writing weather. If you haven't seen, I am done revising this story for now, chapter 8 is now a lemon.
Leetah and Cutter laid together in her bed, bodies slung across eachother, seeking the others skin and breathing in the others scent. An air of contentment hung around them, smiles on their faces and soft eyes. The sound of laughter and barking flowed into the hut, the sound was muted to their ears, like it came from a great distance. Leetah closed her eyes as Cutter leaned his forehead against hers.
"Look at them."
They would have startled if they weren't so blissfully happy at the moment. They sent looks toward the window, where two people were staring at them disgustedly through the beaded curtain. They shared a look full of humoured disbelief, before they looked back at their friends noses that were pressed to the windows edge, their brown and grey eyes staring at them in a frustrated manner.
Tylah scoffed at them and shook her head, "Four days." she intoned somberly. Cutter blinked, certain that Leetah mirrored him. Skywise narrowed his eyes as he rose taller. A second redhead came between the two of them with a big-ass smile on her face. "Four days!" Shen-shen said happily at them, her hads bracing against the window as she leaned inside the hut, staring at them in an extremely intent manner. Tylah and Skywise groaned and pushed away from the window, their steps fading with their muttered comments.
Cutter felt his eyebrow rise at the sister of his mate. She was halfway inside the hut, still grinning insanely at them, her eyes trained on them. "Sooo..." she trailed off. Leetah rolled her eyes and sat up on her bed, smirking at her sister. "When do the little cublings come anyways?" she finally spat out, looking between the two of them.
*What?* Cutter sent to Leetah. "Shen-shen is our midwife." she explained with a wry grin at her younger sister. "The one that should by all means concern herself with the couple that joined before us." she prodded as she gazed behind her sister to see her lovemate stand there with an apologetic smile.
Shen-shen waved her off. "You two have been holed up in here since father found you two. You might have had less time, but I, as your neighbour, know you have been effective." she seemed really pleased to share this knowledge with them before her lovemate dragged her away.
"Were we that bad?" Skywise asked Pike as he ate the few dreamberries he was allowed before the planting of bushes had spread further. Tylah laid next to him, sleepily practicing her control over a flame over her index-finger.
Pike rolled his eyes and groaned. "Were you? Really, I had troubles scenting which one of you were which." he said in an annoyed way, but with a teasing glimt in his eyes. Tylah blushed and the flame seemed to burn brighter. "You guys were one of the worst aftermath of a recognition. The baths were unbathable," here even Skywise blushed, "you guys were around every corner, acting like two calves drunk on dreamberries" he continued, eyes gleefully watching the two tricksters embarrassed. "And not to forget the way you shocked Savah that one time." he mused, popping another dreamberry into his purple mouth, ignoring the two pained groans from the couple next to him. They had damn well asked him, he should answer them, he thought as he shaded his eyes from the sun with his hand.
Before he could do anymore, he heard the now-familiar troathclearing of farmer Daalhi. He sent a grin her way, as her almost black eyes narrowed at him. "Why, hello beautiful." he greeted her with a wink that sent her growling. He ignored the hasty retreat of the two others as he stretched out on the ground, barechested for his farmers pleasure. "What a coincidence to meet here. Did you miss me, love?" he purred at her, watching a blush rise in her cheeks as she spluttered at him.
Okay, that's the new chapter. I know the focus is mostly on Leetah and Cutter in this one and that it is short. Sorry if it's dissapointing but I want to get this out tonight! :D Next chapter will be a timelapse, with brief glances into the two year time of Leetahs pregnancy- and Tylahs? Hmm... :3
