Broken Antler Fen Something to tell you

Odette listened attentively as Sebastian spoke wondering what he had called her for.  So when he told her that he was glad that she had made it home safely, she assumed that this was all that he had called her for.  So Odie just flashed him a friendly smile and gave a bob of her head.  Sebastian apperantly had more to say to her though as he continued.  Her tail gave a small wag as he spoke again, this time telling her that he had to tell her something, that he hoped she would be as happy as he was.

A few moments of curiousity swept by her.

What did Uncle Seb have to say?  What had he really called her here for.

His next words shoked her into silence.  Pearl was pregnant and quite obviously, because of how happy Sebastian seemed to be, he was the Father.  She didn't know what to say.

Then Sebastian went on to talk about how he hoped that she would be a big sister to the puppies, even though she called him Uncle Seb.  His last words touched her the most though.  He told her that she was a big part of his family, that he wouldn't want her to be left out.  She gave a single shocked nod.

Then Odie was silent for a whole thirty seconds trying to process everything and then think about it.  She was going to be a big sister... sure maybe not a biological one, but still a big sister of her adoptive siblings.

Then her tail began to wag faster and faster and faster, her eyes brightening.  "Congratulations!  I can't believe it.  I'm so happy for you!  I can't wait to meet them," she didn't even hesitate on the last word, Dad."  Then she leaned forward to attempt to nuzzle her Father.
