What if I'm not though? What if I only bring up pointless worries? But what if I am? Just tell him already! Adelle was having a mental arguement as she laid there next to Shihab silent for awhile as her brain continued it's civil war over what to say. Finally something won and so she raised her head up slowly to look at Shihab before she spoke.
"Shihab...I..well...Don't know how to say this...or...how you will react...and I hope you don't hate me for it...but...I think well that I...umm well...may be...pregnant." she said the last word so quietly that she hoped Shihab didn't hear.

*Ears standing straight up, and eyes growing wider then normal, he didn't think he heard what she said. He heard something about being pregnant? And something about hating her? Why would he hate her for such news? He could never hate his silver bell, never in a million life times. Shaking his head a little to wash away the dumbstruck mask he must have been wearing and nuzzled her most lovingly, his heart racing loud enough fot them both to hear as he tried to swallow it back down into his chest.*
"Say that again?" He said a little befuddled? "That's wonderful news, something that would cause no hate. I love you even more Adelle. Nothing in this world could make me hate you. That is a promise I made a long time ago." he whispered kissing her passionately. "I bet they will look like you most, with your grace and beauty."

"I think I said that I was umm pregnant?" she repeated before she heard him tell her that it was wonderful news. She couldn't help but blush as she listened to him talk and she smiled a gentle smile. "I wasn't sure if you would like the idea of having little ones around. It means our time together in the sky will probaly be cut short for awhile."
She got quiet for a few minutes as she thought before her worries came rushing out. "What if I don't make a good mother? What if they hate me? What if I'm really not pregnant? I really don't think I'd make a good mother. What if I do something wrong? What if I do many things wrong? What if you didn't want children just yet?" She quickly looked away from Shihab as she continued worrying.

*Shihab had to shake his head as she started to talk about 'what ifs'. There were many that she listed off, being a bad mother? Never, their foals hating her? That was something to be seen when they had emerged. He nuzzled against her when she looked away, concern masked his face like a shadow.*
"Oh come now, you'll be a wonderful mother to the foals. We both will make mistakes, but I'm sure that there won't be anything that will make them hate us. Having Children was a dream of mine when I was growing from yearling to adult. I am over joyed that we are having little ones, even if it means that we are grounded for a time. I have been grounded for too long before meeting you. Adelle, you will make a wonderful mother, we will have a wonder family that will fly and dance in the skies like the best of them. Have faith love, we won't know all the answers until things play out." He said hoping he had answered all her questions, hoping he got none wrong.

Adelle knew Shihab was right but she still couldn't help but worry. A couple tears showed in her eyes as she turned and buried her face into him. "I'm sorry for worrying so much. I really am. I just can't help it. I don't know why I worry so much. Please forgive me?" She kept her face buried in him so most of what she said came out as a mumble which hopefully was translatable.

*Shihab placed his head on hers and wrapped a wing around her tightly in an embrace as he looked up toward the branches that loomed over their heads. As if the aiswers were up there.*
"I forgive you now and for always." He whispered, "There are many things to worry about. I have to agree with you on that, But too much worry can make one feel ill and worse could happen. You willing to go for a walk with me?" he asked not moving from the embrace, hopefully comforting her the best he knew how.

"Oh Shihab. I love you so much." Adelle quietly said as she felt his embrace and heard his words. How she could have ever found a stallion as caring and kind as him was beyond her but she was glad she did.
"I think I am feeling a bit better. So a walk does sound nice." She said with a small smile looking up at him. And perhaps we'll walk by the two-legger's place. I do wonder how she could have known.

"I love you too Adelle, more then the wind beneath my wings." his whispered slowly standing, as he was willing to help her to her hooves. "A walk will be good for the both of us, Perhaps stop by my human's camp for a snack?" he asked smiling standing beside Adelle, not wanting anything to happen to her. Not now ot not ever. *Looking out across the clearing making sure that there wasn't anything out there. Waiting, waiting for it's chance to strike. As he had thought before to himself, he would defend his love and unborn off spring with everything he had. Looking back toward Adelle, making sure that she was alright, his wing not yet leaving her back for it was there for reassurance.*

Adelle slowly got up and managed to get up on all four hooves without a problem. She was feeling better which she was glad for. Though she wasn't sure if she could stand being sick like that alot throughout the pregnancy if she was for sure pregnant. "A snack sounds good and hopefully my stomach will keep the food down and not allow it to come back up." She smiled as she took a few steps foward slowly and waited for Shihab to come along.

*Shihab waited for her to stand and folded his wing against his side and stepped forward with Adelle, minding to remain at her side just incase something should happen. He kept a watchful eye one Adelle, making sure that she was alright before looking forward toward his human's camp. Hoping that Adelle wouldn't freak out at the sight of teh woven basket, he had to wonder how many she had made... Shaking his head a little he kept walking slowly, a good walking pace to say the least.*
"I hope that your stomach allows you to eat. For it seems that you will be eating for more just yourself." He nodded looking at her again. "We can only hope that time passes quickly and you won't have such discomforts."
*As they walked he could see the pale hides that made up his human's home. Stopping just outside the small ring of bushes, he awaited for Adelle to enter before him, being that he was always the 'ladies first' sort of stallion. Out of the corner of his eye he could see the half finished basket that still remained in plain sight.*

She nodded in agreement with the whole time passing quickly thing. Being able to eat again without feeling sick would be wonderful. Though she wished greatly that it'd only be this one day she would be sick but she knew that was just wishful thinking. Walking in through the bushes past Shihab she stopped and waited for him on the other side. Basket? How could the two-legger have known though? she thought as she stared at the basket a few moments longer before looking away.

*He was right behind her as he stepped through the opening and was beside her as she looked away from the basket she had spotted. In truth he wasn't sure if it was for them... But it did seem that way. Shaking his head he headed toward the back of the teepee, away from the weaving.*
"Lets see if we can find something back here. I though I had seen some other carrots or something." He said trying to take her mind off the basket that was half woven.
*Looking at Adelle he soon seemed to busy himself with nosing through supplies that his human had. Knocking a couple apples to teh ground that rolled her way, he still searched for a carrot or two. He knew that there were some, or had been more then the three he had taken earlier. His ears flicked a little as he soon pulled out a carrot and looked over toward Adelle with it sticking out of his mouth by the stalk, wondering if she wanted it...*

Adelle followed Shihab to the back of the teepee where the two-legger supposedly kept her stuff. "Don't you think you should wait for her to offer you the stuff instead of just taking it?" she asked. Though upon seeing the sight of Shihab with a carrot hanging out of his mouth she couldn't help but laugh. "You do look a bit silly though." She didn't accept the carrot nor picked up any of the apples that came near her as she didn't want to take the two-legger's food without permission.

*Shihab gave a small shrug as he was unable to speak until he sat the carrot down upon the ground. But he still didn't really speak until taking a bite out of an apple. After a moment he looked up at Adelle and canted his head to one side a little.*
"I think she put this out here for us." He said looking at the basket of food that apparenly had something painted upon it, looking like their names. "I'm sure it would be alright to eat it."
*Lowering his head again, he took another bite from the apple, soon looking back up at Adelle. Sighing as he had a feeling she was right after all, but then again at the moment he hadn't eaten yet and he was hungry. Nudging the other apple toward Adelle.*

Adelle's stomach growled just then as Shihab spoke. She had resolved to wait until the two-legger came around before eating something but all of a sudden she was hungry. She couldn't explain why but decided she would at least eat a bit of the apple Shihab nudged towards her. Taking a bite of the apple she chewed it for a few seconds before swallowing it. "If we get in trouble for raiding her food it's your fault." she said with small laugh before returning her attention to the juicy apple.
