Hey, I'm back. Hope ya'll like it!

"No no, a little to the left." A sweet, soft voice gently drifted through the air. "No, not your left, my left… that's too far left. Move it to the right."

Raz wasn't the only one that was up early. Lisa stood in the middle of their burrow, directing her to-be mate which way to position the painting she'd had Jezzabelle make them. She would've helped, but someone needed to direct him which way to put it.

…Plus her stomach didn't help. It was starting to swell a bit, it made her feel unbalanced. She didn't want to except this, just deny it and tell herself she needed more exercise and hold back on the carrots a bit, but… all the signs were there.

She'd been an official adult for about half a year now- she'd moved into their new burrow four months prior, they'd worked on it long and hard to get it perfect. She thought for sure she'd be lonely and bothered by lack of sound, having grown up with six litters worth of siblings, but she was managing just fine. Squint made excellent company; the pair got along wonderfully, and had been engaged for five months, trying to balance wedding plans and home designing.

Although, technically, by tradition, they were already mates. Once accepted, it was official. But still, Lisa wanted a big celebration, with decorations and music and… and just fun and dancing. Her parents had had a big wedding too, and she'd always loved hearing about it.

"No wait, that's too right. Go left again."

"Aw Lis…" Squint groaned in annoyance, stepping back. "It looks fine ta me."

"Well I think it needs to be…" she took a step back and made a frame with her fingers. "Mmm… just a tad higher."

"Lisa-"

"Just a tad." She promised. "Then I'll be satisfied. He groaned but did as she wanted. He'd learned over time that it was much easier to just go with what the girl wanted then to argue. "Ah… that's perfect." He came to stand beside it and admire the painting, an arm slipping around the doe's shoulders. They both smiled widely as they looked at the work of art.

It was the two of them, arms around each other, grinning widely. They were in a flowery patch in the forest near their home, a beam of sunlight hitting them like a spotlight. Lisa had a white flower beside one ear, aligning perfectly with her bow. She'd never taken it off, not once since Squint gave it to her to keep her long ears back when they were just kits, only five years old. "Yer right. Perfect."

"Now… can we keep arranging?" he ground his teeth.

"Yes Lisa."

"Thanks sweetie."

…

"Alright, just a little more…" Lisa made a 'come here' gesture with her hands. "Little more… Little more…"

Squint grit his teeth and shoved the rock recliner a little further. "Is this good?"

"Mmm… liiiiiiittle m- wait! Stop! That's perfect!" she applauded happily and jumped up and down for a moment. "Eek! It looks… wow!" the front room was perfect! The picture of the couple on the back wall, the twin chairs on either side. On the left wall was their couch, with a wooden little coffee table before it. It smelled like coffee bean, hence the name. She just loved the smell of coffee. There was a little fireplace dug into the right wall, a tunnel above it to serve as a chimney. They'd hung beautifully colored autumn leaves on all the walls, covering every place, so the underground home was colorful and had a warm, cheery air to it. There were a couple more paintings, one of the ocean with the sun reflecting beautifully on the water, a large ship on the horizon. And the other was an extreme close-up of a seeding dandelion and painted with abstract colors, purple, pink, orange, and yellow, so it looked like a rainbow maze. Squint thought it was weird, but Lisa thought it was perfect, really pulling the place together.

There were different little tunnels heading off in almost every direction, a woven grass mat over each entrance, serving as a door. There was the kitchen, dining room, their bedroom, and some rooms that had no… spoken purpose, but they both knew what they were for. Squint just didn't think they would be put to use so soon…

…

It was time for lunch, and Lisa insisted they eat outside. It was a warm day, so why not? The two went for a picnic on the beach, spreading out a leaf blanket, dining on berries and multiple fruits, and, of course, carrots. A total and complete necessity for a rabbit lunch.

The two munched for a while, Lisa trying her hardest not to devour as much as her quickly growing appetite demanded. But alas, that wasn't easy. With the extra-

"Lis?" Squint sounded concerned. "You ok? You've eaten double than what I've ever seen ya eat before." Concern danced in his intense brown orbs. "Ya don't think ya got a parasite or something, do ya?" he remembered when Shira got one of those not too long ago. It had increased her appetite so much they were hiding for a month in fear, even after she was cured. Her mother had had to force feed her lotus berries (a very dangerous plant that paralyzed anyone who ingested them) while her father and big sister held her down so she could be taken to a healer for diagnosis and treatment.

"U- Um…" she cleared her throat and polished some melon juice off her fingers. "Sweetie, we, uh, we need to talk."

He groaned, rather dramatically. "Aw man…"

"What? What's with the sudden moodiness."

"You do realize those are break-up words, right?"

She gave him a weird look. "No. Honestly, where do you come up with these things?"

"Lis, I grew up with seventy nine big sisters and not one brother. Where do ya think I got it?"

"Good point... but that's not my point. The point is" she got up and brushed the sand out of her silky brown fur. "We need to talk. And no, this is not a break up talk." He got up and she held out her hand, intertwining their fingers. "Lets walk, shall we?"

He gave her that crooked smirk she found so adorable. "We shall."

Well? Was it terrible? I'm thinking of doing an introduction chapter, focusing on each couple, kinda like a did in A Child's Sweet, but I'm not sure? Thoughts? Please review!

Bonus points to anyone who can guess what's going on with Lisa.
