breakfast in bed

The days were flying by, Novella was rather large now, not making near as many trips from the den as she had in the beginning. Surely a little less than two weeks and their newest additions would be here. It was his turn to leave early, his mission breakfast for his heavily pregnant wife. He'd gone out with the intentions of finding a rabbit or two, but with the spring floodwaters retreating there were many an odd pool around the falls. Some of which held some rather delectable looking fish.
They were an easy catch, one a bass looking fish and the other clearly a catfish, both were somewhat large but he was still able to fit them in his mouth somehow. Eager to return with his prize the brute would trot back to the den that was quickly being prepared for little babies.
He'd squeeze back into the entrance, sure that if she hadn't found wakefulness yet the smell of the fish would do the trick. He'd let them slide form his mouth before moving to nuzzle her lovingly, awake or not.

His wife was quite alert as he made his way into the den, her bright features all he wished to see this morning. He'd find a soft smile on his face as he leaned in and nuzzled her affectionately. She'd greet him easily as she returned the gesture, and for a moment he would forget all about the creatures he'd brought her to eat. "Good morning," he'd answer easily as he curled himself next to her, his paws coming to rest over the breakfast he'd brought. "How are you feeling?" The first pregnancy had been difficult, but now that both parents had the experience under their belt this one seemed much smoother. And though Novella seemed to waddle just as much he thought as though she were still smaller this time than last. He'd blame it on Aslan, that kid had been rather giant when he came out.
He'd nudge the bigger of the two fish towards her, motioning for her to eat. He was going to pamper her as best he could these last couple of weeks. There wouldn't be much time for rest after the were born. Thankfully the first couple of weeks were relatively quiet as they mostly stayed attached to Novella's stomach. "Are you ready for them?" He'd ask softly, she hadn't seemed near as scared this time around, but he still wanted to make sure she was as comfortable as possible.
