Love at First Sight [babies!]

Without even realizing it, the silvery pup was sent free from the womb and to the outside world. Alongside his brother, he felt safe because he knew that he wasn't alone. Now, as he struggled to get used to using the little lungs and heart that both pumped to provide him with oxygen, he was swept over with the chill from the rain that pushed its way into the den. Blind like a bat, he struggled to cry out, eventually hearing his own sad whimpers leave his mouth. If anyone heard his weak voice, then it would be a miracle.
Indeed, a miracle did happen for the newborn. Shortly after crying out in pleas of being cold and alone, a couple of tongues and the security of a furry blanket grabbed ahold of his tiny form. He didn't have to worry; he was safe. Warmth took over and he immediately began to realize that an intense hunger roared from his very tiny stomach. As he tried to struggle to find a reliable source, he was gently pushed to the warm underbelly of his mother. With the sense that was needed to find it, his toothless mouth found a nipple and he began to eat.
The unnamed silvery-gray pup was in the middle of his first feeding when he felt a warm lick across his whole body, followed by the gentle whisper of "Faolan..." He knew that such a word was his name, meant for him to use for the rest of his life. The newly dubbed Faolan didn't falter in his life's first mission: to eat until he was content. Having that small stomach, the mission was completed in a matter of two minutes or so. A loving nuzzle and lick from Bronze concluded the first fifteen minutes of Faolan being awake. He fell asleep shortly after, curled up between Mercury and Ara, and lathering in the warmth and love that surrounded him.
