She heard soft footsteps behind her but did not look around.

As we passed one door, I heard the sound of soft footsteps on the other side.

There were soft footsteps behind him, but he didn't look up.

There was someone in the hall outside her room, soft footsteps.

She heard the sound of soft footsteps, coming closer to the house.

Soft footsteps cross the floor and stop in front of him.

The soft footsteps could still be heard moving about the deck.
