Edge was watching Cherrypaw and Snowfeather, his expression was unreadable but his dark green gaze easily could be readable to Snowfeather. The black and gray Maine Coon was worried, nervous that something had happened to Snowfeather during her journey and now it was taking effect. Of course he wouldn’t be voicing those concerns, as he wanted to wait for Cherrypaw’s conclusion to voice his thoughts. Watching as he small calico was gently pressing against her stomach, Cherrypaw felt two little bumps within the Riverclan deputy and listened to the white and gray molly speaking of her symptoms. It wasn’t until the medicine cat apprentice nodded and pulled away, looking at Edge and then Snowfeather “Well, Snowfeather.. I found out what’s happening to you.” She said before a keeping a neutral expression, as she wasn’t quite sure if Snowfeather and Edge were going to handle the news
“You’re expecting kits.”
At that moment, Edge felt the blood rushing to his ears and it felt like time stopped when Cherrypaw said those words. The black and gray Maine Coon’s mouth felt dry and felt like he couldn’t move.. Edge was going to be a father? He didn’t expect such news. Snowfeather and Edge hadn’t really talked about children, as it was the last thing on both of their minds. His mate had recently become deputy and Edge was more focused on his warrior duties, did Snowfeather want to be a mother? He knew that her parents weren’t exactly the best parents towards her, while his father was a raging psychopath and mother disappeared the moment he was born.. Would they make good parents? Anxiety crept through him, but he didn’t make it known that he was slightly panicking inside. Cherrypaw looked between the two mates, and suddenly got up from her spot “I’ll give you guys a moment, give me a shout if you need anything.” She said gently before slipping out of the medicine cat den to head towards the elder’s den. The calico knew that the two parents-to-be would need a moment to themselves, to process the news of becoming parents now.
Edge’s dark green gaze went to Snowfeather the moment that Cherrypaw left. The white and gray molly had an unreadable expression on her face, he wasn’t quite sure about her reaction.. Letting out a sigh, he suddenly got a flashback of when they had their fight in the medicine cat den a while ago.. The fight that broke them up. Watching his mate for a moment, he spoke quietly “Snowfeather, are you okay?” He asked softly. What a dumb question, Edge wanted to cringe because of that. Clearing his throat, his large paw went to her own small one and held on to it “Whatever happens, we’re in this together.. Okay?’ He said gently. He didn’t want her to feel alone, that she had him by her side. Edge looked towards the entrance, and knew that Snowfeather was probably panicking that Darkstar would probably take her deputyship away if he found out and looked back towards her “I won’t say anything, not until you want me to.” He promised her, as he intended to help her keep this pregnancy to themselves.
