If mama doesn't see us, we can't get in trouble

It was early, it had to be. As a tiny little bundle of fur opened his green eyes and glanced around at the sleeping forms of his family he saw his mother still sleeping peacefully, curled against his father. If his dad wasn’t out getting food for them, or patrolling the area closest to their den, then it had to be super early! Normally the child would behave, but the chance to sneak out of the den on his own and wade into the pool of the falls was too tempting. His mother had told all of them they weren’t allowed in yet, that she would let them play there when it got really, really hot out, but… Gavroche glanced at his parents once more. He wouldn’t go in too deep. He’d just dip his paws! Carefully getting to his paws so he wouldn’t accidentally bump his siblings with his wings he’d look over them next. So far so good, no one was stirring…

He was pretty much home free! With an excited wiggle the calico boy would carefully pick his way across his siblings. He liked sleeping closest to their mama - she was warm and he got chilly easily - but it was making it hard to avoid all their sprawled limbs on his way out! He was almost scot free when he felt his toes clip someone’s tail. Green eyes would widen and Gavroche would hop forward, spinning to see who might ruin his chance of an early morning adventure. Jericho. Ears would lower to his head as he saw the mostly dark figure start to stir and a plan sprung to mind. “Shh!” Yes, he could play it off like he had meant to wake his sibling and bring them along all along! He loved his family, so it couldn’t hurt.

“Keep quiet and follow me~” Without waiting for a response the boy would dart to the entrance of their den and break into a run. He wanted to get outside!

"Speech" 'Thought.'
