Happiness would come soon, the young woman hoped. She felt it tugging at the edges of her mind, and seeing how excited Haven had become only brought forth a genuine smile to her young, pretty face. It meant so much to her to see her mate so ecstatic, and it helped to push away the negative thoughts that were demanding her attention. This was something they had both wanted, together, and she would not allow herself to make this happy moment sad for either of them. It was a time to celebrate, and it would be even better if she were not feeling as nauseas as she was. The bucket still sat beside her and she was keenly aware of it, though she did not think that she would be sick again at that moment, and if she was going to be, Haven would be leaving the room. She did not want him to leave her side yet, so she certainly was not going to be sick if she could help it at all.
The pretty young lady smiled at his suggestion. "I think we should go tell them soon, and maybe visit with their pups, too," she suggested. It had been quite some time since she had visited Heath and Ruri, and she missed their company. It was exciting to know that they would all be parents at the same time! It helped to ease her worries about becoming like her mother if she thought about good things such as that, things that would make parenthood even better for her. "Do you want me to come with you to tell Anu and Mati?" she asked. It was something she would like, but perhaps it was something he would rather share with them privately, since they were all family. She probably would have wanted to tell Ares alone, if he had not taken the coward's way out and left her without even so much as saying good bye in person.
