But the rumbling of her stomach refused to allow any sleep, and with a sigh, Lavender rolled over onto her side to fix her green gaze on Irisflower and Glowingkit. Ah, Glowingkit woke me up. Lavenderkit wrinkled her nose playfully at her littermate, allowing her jaws to part in a soft yawn before pushing herself up to her paws. The tortoiseshell lowered her head to give her chest fur a few quick licks, knowing her fur was often a wreck in the mornings. But another rumble from her stomach caught her attention, and with a roll of her eyes, Lavender stood up and stretched.

"Me, too." The kit mewled, making her way across her siblings. She decided being careful wasnt necessary at this point - Glowingkit had probably woken up everyone anyway. So, nearly tripping over small paws and tails, Lavenderkit allowed herself to stop in front of her mother, beside her paws. "Can we eat?" Lavender sat down, bringing her colorful tail up to wrap around her paws neatly as he green eyes fixed on Irisflower. While she would normally join in with her sister and give her mother's ears a few tugs, Lavenderkit was far too hungry to think about games right then.

Irisflower's dreams were empty at this very moment, she was sleeping as soundly as a rock. She was tuckered out, and rightfully so, from following around her latest litter. The queen had had five kittens only two moons ago, and it was quite different watching five little beings with only two eyes compared to her small first litter. Thankfully, they were fairly well-behaved compared to their older siblings, but it was still an adjustment that she was making.
It was early morning, but Irisflower would be roused in only a few moments by tiny paws. However, she was beginning to adjust once more to the schedule of being a full time mother, and actually began to stir from sleep before her kittens did. Sleepy green eyes blinked open, and automatically took a count of heads. One, two, three, four, five... They closed once more when they found that all was well, but she still remained somewhat awake. Once one kitten awoke, they all followed. This mother knew that well, and tried to stretch her resting time as long as it could possibly go.

A slight stirring of her mother's body was all it took to awaken Glowingkit. Her golden eyes opened and her stomach growled immediately. Accustomed to getting what she wanted, Glowingkit bounced to her paws and fixed her mother with a plaintive look that seemed to say Surely I'll die if I don't eat soon! Taking note of Irisflower's closed eyes, Glowingkit thrashed her stubby tail. Serious action needed to be taken, so the tiny she-cat began marching over to her mother's face. Glowingkit trod on multiple tails, ears, and paws as she journeyed through the sleeping bodies of her many littermates to her Irisflower. Upon reaching the dozing figure of her mother, Glowingkit placed her tiny paws upon the older she-cat and cried, "Mom!" Mischief sparked in her eyes and Glowingkit climbed up onto her mother's dozing figure and tramped up to her ear. The young molly clamped her teeth gently around Irisflower's warrior and pulled, squeaking in a muffled voice, "Momma! I'm hungry!" Usually, Glowingkit was better behaved, but she wasn't a morning-kit and manners meant nothing to a grumbling stomach.

Before anyone had been up, Songbirdkit eyes were wide open. He observed everything within the den. From the sleeping breathing of his mother, to the tiny forms of his siblings. His eyes were blinking every now and then, but he didn't make a word. He didn't want to wake anyone up. He liked the quietness. The stillness that surrounded him. It felt...nice. Very serene. Though, it was ruined all too soon. His ears twitched at the movement of his mother, and it made him nestle deeper into her. He was squished between his siblings, but being the bigger kit out of the four girls. Four sisters...he wasn't complaining. He was the only boy born in this litter, and so far? He considered himself lucky. Though he rarely talked, but once his mother had stirred, it had awakened his lousy sister. Songbirdkit shifted his body, rolling into his side as he maneuvered before Glowingkit would step on him. Once she made it pass, this has awokened Lavenderkit. Oh, great, so much for silence. Songbirdkit was not hungry. He lifted his head, which had been resting peacefully on his paws. He blinked his eyes towards his sisters, but remained close to his mother. Gentlekit and Cherrykit seemed to not have been phased at the moment, but he knew they would soon, when given the chance. If Irisflower did feed them, maybe they would stop talking. Everything was silent before everyone has awoken. The only thing Songbirdkit could hear were the chirps of the crickets and the occasional tweeting of a bird. Songbirdkit stayed curled in his spot, wrapping himself into an unnerved ball, indicating that he did not want to be bothered.
