If the situation hadn't been so serious, his face would have been amusing. His jaw dropped in surprise and a thousand questions raced across his face. It was a tense moment, but as soon as a grin lift his lips, she would relax and smile. He was happy. He would nuzzle her and she would lean into his touch, finding comfort in the fact that he was no upset by the news. Leaning against him, she would curl into his side comfortably. A content smile toyed with her lips. Her crown would lower to rest across his front paws, her tail thumping happily against the cave floor. Relief washed through her, her anxiety dissipating, which made room for exhaustion. Today had been far more exciting than she intended it to be. Slowly but surely her pelt was drying and her warmth was returning. A yawn would part her jaws, her expression growing sleepy. "I'm happy you're happy." She would mumble softly, already drifting off into sleep. Her eye would flutter close, muscles relaxing as the stresses of the day melted away. All that matter was that they were going to be parents, and they were both happy. She loved him, and he still loved her. Everything was perfect. A gentle wave of sleep washed over her, pulling her from reality and tumbling into darkness.
