Novella had been able to come to terms with the surprising news a little more now. She still wasn't feeling all that excited by it, perhaps now more worried about telling the father and grandfather to be what with her mother having helped her banish her own fears about becoming a mother for the time being. One day at a time. She had already repeated that numerous times in her head and wondered how many more she would need to say it over the course of the next week, month and year.

This all of course depended on whether he had finished his duties for the day and if she had been swift enough to catch him here before he retired to his own den or began the search for her. Sure enough however she would find him relaxing within one of the pools. She would take a deep breath before making her way over to join him.
She would nuzzle him in greeting as she stood at the edge of the pool, attempting not to give off any sign of worries or stress. "Mind if I join you?" She would question, a small smile finding its way upon her face. For now she was certain she knew the answer, and prayed that she was right in thinking it'd still be the same in a few minutes when she plucked up the courage to share their news with him.
