Firestar sat silently, watching his Clan. Sandstorm padded quietly over to him. He looked up at her slowly. His face was stern and serious. Hers was calm and happy. She gave him a quick smile, and he poked her stomach with his tail.
"How much have you been eating! You've been sneaking seconds again!" Firestar said playfully.
"Look… I need to talk to you, alone." mumbled Sandstorm in his ear, while twitching her tail back and forth nervously. She headed to Firestar's den, with Firestar following quickly after.
On entering, Firestar quickly made his way to his bed of moss. Sitting down on it, he perked his ears toward Sandstorm.
"Yes?" he asked anxiously.
Sandstorm looked up for her paws and directly into his eyes.
"Well," she started awkwardly. "I'm having another litter…"
Firestar's eyes lit up.
"That's terrific!" he purred.
