Let the Moonshine

Quietly he sat like a stone not far from the den, his dual gaze taking in the territory around him. He had only been here for a few minutes, but he wasn't sure how much longer he would be here. He was patiently waiting, waiting for his mother to join him. Earlier that day she had mentioned her desire to speak with him tonight while Bones watched the little ones. Chasm wouldn't admit it, but he was nervous as to what Marina wanted to talk to him about. Had he done something wrong? Was she upset with him for some reason? Lightly he huffed trying to push back the anxiety that was building within his mind. He couldn't think of a reason for this to be a negative talk, so he tried to settle himself down.

Looking towards the den he sighed lightly, wondering how much Marina had to actually explain to Bones about caring for the young-ins. Was she finishing up feeding them? Was she trying to put them to bed? He wasn't sure most times when he came back to the den his siblings were already passed out for the night so he was never sure when exactly there bedtime was. His ears pricked forward as he heard movement in the den. His tail began to lightly beat the ground, his ears folding back lightly, it had to be his mother. She had to finally be coming to join him. It was already close to dark and the moon would be coming out soon.

Most of the pack should already settled into bed so this talk would be nice and private and he would be able to get some quality alone time with his mother. He hated to say it, but since being reunited he felt he never had time alone with her, Bones had always been there. He loved his companion, but he was a bit selfish and wanted his time with his mother.
