Dawnlark Plains Somewhere between the sacred silence and sleep

 

OOC: Pema will have given Sunny permission to bring news to the allied packs. But Shale will have denied his request to burry him. Just wanted to make those two things clear if they come up at all.

She had given herself some room to breathe. She had asked Adi and Dawn to help her keep the pack together during this time and for the early stages of her motherhood. She knew that she could probably do it, but the stress of suddenly taking on all of the responsibilities of a pack, she feared, would be too much stress on her unborn children.

But now that she had room to breathe that space was filled with grief. She hoped that Day was looking upon her with fondness. That he was seeing what she was doing was right, rather than cowardice. Even though she was a leader with Day she found herself often asking for his opinions on many things. She would have to find it within herself now to know if she was going in the right direction.

She found herself walking the day after Day's death. It gave her something to do rather than dwell in her den. Walking was also a way for her to reduce stress and help her in her pregnancy. It gave her time to think, time to feel.

Tears slowly streamed down her face. She found herself smiling, thinking back to all the good memories that she had had with Day. He knew that this was an inevitability and spoke about it from time to time, but it still seemed like he was still here.

On her walk, she saw Sunny come into view. She walked up beside him and rested her head on his shoulder. Unsure of what words to start out with. The typical How are you didn't seem right.
