Raindancer was sitting on a stepping stone in the river, watching the life around her. She listened to the river, loving how it sounded. Then, she heard a twig snap behind her. Twitching her ear was the only response she gave to the sound.
OOC: Don't ask why it is called Waiting

Windlistener's ginger fur was just a flash of fire-red blur as he sped towards the rocky river. HIs paws snapped a twig and he halted, looking down. When he looked up again he noticed Raindancer on a stepping stone in the middle of the river. "Raindancer!" He called, standing as close to the rivers edge as he could without falling in himself.

She turned her head around, happiness and love brimming her eyes. Hello Windlistener. She called. She turned around, and started to run when she slipped, and fell. She fell into the river, crying for help. She could swim, but the current was fast.

Windlistener growled and leaped into the water, he hated getting his paws wet but powerfulmuscles gave him an edge. He swam strongly to where Raindancer was being pulled in the current and gripped her scruff, kicking his legs calmly. If he just trashed about like some cats did they would both be pulled down. When he got near the shore line he gripped the edge with his paws, hauling him and Raindancer from the river.

Raindancer gasped, driplets of water falling from her whiskers. Thank you. She sighed. She was tired, so she lied down, not bothering to get rid of the water. It felt so nice on a warm day like this. True was, Raindancer loved to be in water, just not in a fast current river. She now stood up, shaking the water. It gave her a small chill. "Do you like the water?" She asked, still breathless.
OOC: Um...should she announce that she is going to have kits???

She started to lick her paws, then stopped. That is true. She said, then went back to licking. After a couple more strokes, she said, I actually like the water. I'm crazy, I know. But it always sounded so beautiful, and it feels wonderful. Just a moment ago, when I was on the stepping stone, She pointed her tail to the exact one she sat and slipped on. I was listening to the river. And i was thinking. She ended, hesitantly.
OOC: Even though we haven't R.Ped with them lately, can we pretend that they have spent so much time together?

OOC: I don't care
Windlistener tilted his head "Eh, well, not a lot of us around here like to get wet but we'll swim the distance if a life is at stake" He lay down and looked at the sky, seeing a mass of white cloud rolling across the sky.

OOC: OKAY!! Windlistener, I have news. She said, excitement, nervousness, and anxiety are what she felt at this moment. She looked at him with such love in her eyes.

Windlistener flicked his tail, sliding it across the leaves under him "What is it?" She had come out with that statement so suddenly it'd startled him a bit.

She saw that he was a bit startled. Maybe...maybe I should tell you another time. Raindancer said, a bit put out that he didn't look at least a bit curious.

Raindancer started to relax, alough she was still a bit tense. Windlistener, I am going to have our kits. She lowered her voice on every word, afraid of what his reaction might be.

Windlistener's jaw dropped and he stared in surprise at Raindancer. He closed his mouth and smiled, brushing against her lightly.

Raindancer relaxed fully now. I can't wait. Was all she said. She rubbed her cheeck against him. Should we go back to the Clan now? She asked, suddenly weary from the past minutes.
