Rockpaw followed Blazepaw and set his fresh kill on the pile, keeping one of his three mice that he caught. He carried it to the apprentice den and lay down, the setting sun warming his pelt. Before he tucked into the mouse he stretched and yawn. Rockpaw slid his claws out, and then back in. He lay back normal and wrapped his tail beneath his body. As he took a bite, he sighed. Oh, I hope Honeystar approves. I am her apprentice, and Blazepaw is her daughter. I don't like Blazepaw, I love her. he thought. He took another bite of his warm and delicious mouse. He was soon done, so he cleaned his face with a paw. After he was done cleaning he lay his head on his paws and closed his eyes.

Blazepaw followed after Rockpaw, dropping her food in the fresh kill pile. She followed him, as though nothing at all had happened between them. She chatted with him normally, giving away nothing. "I love you,"she whispered in his ear suddenly, making sure no one was listening. She walked back to the apprentice's den, and lay down next to him. She ate her thrush rather briskly, looking troubled and happy. "I'm going to go tell Honeystar," she meowed under her breath, and she was off. Not waiting for Rockpaw to catch up, she stepped out of the den, and looked for her mother. Where is she? Blazepaw padded back into the den, disappointed, yet relieved. She sat down next to Rockpaw, and ran her paw over her head. "She's not there," she meowed, directing her musical voice towards him.

"Now?" Rockpaw asked warily,"We should wait until we become warriors to tell, don't you think?" He looked Blazepaw deep in the eyes, trying to read her emotions. "Maybe just her," he laughed,"I don't care, whatever you think is best." He yawned and streched. "I better sleep because I have dawn patrol or hunting, I forget which. Night." Rockpaw told Blazepaw. He looked around quickly, and the clearing was empty, so he licked her on the top of the head. He playfully flicked his tail across her nose and walked into the apprentice den, covered in moss and feathers. His nest was cold and lumpy, so he turned around a few times, kneeding the moss. He lay down, and sleep swallowed him whole.

"Goodnight Rockpaw," Blazepaw meowed, searching deep into his eyes. At that moment, she didn't care if anyone was there. She wrapped her long tail around his shoulder, and stood there for a moment, overwhelmed. "Goodnight," she whispered again, and let her tail slide off his shoulder. She padded to her spot, and collapsed with exhaustion. She lay there, letting sleep get a grip of her mind.

Rockpaw woke to the morning sun in his eyes. He yawned and stretched, sliding his claws out, and back in. Standing up, he shook his pelt, to shake of the clinging moss. As he was walking past Blazepaw, he reached down and licked her head. Walking out into the busy clearing, he stopped and sat down, to clean his pelt. Moving his tounge rythmicallyover his pelt, he managed to get it mostly clean. Cherryfrost was sorting herbs, and looked lonely, so he went over and visited. "Hello, Cherryfrost," Rockpaw said, "Need some help?"
"No , I think I have it all, but thank you for offering. Are you on partol, or hunting?" Cherryfrost asked Rockpaw.
"I am not sure, let me go check with Honeystar," Rockpaw said , before turning away, "I'll be back." Rockpaw turned and padded towards Honeystar's den. He climbed up the log bridge to her den. "Honeystar?" he called out.

Honeystar heard the young apprentice calling her name. "What is it, Rockpaw?" she asked him calmly, beckoning him into her den. "What is it?" she asked him again, this time giving him permission to speak.
Blazepaw woke up to Rockpaw's gentle lick. She shook herself, and thoroughly licked her long-furred pelt. "Wait up!" she called to Rockpaw, still a little tired from the night before. She ran after him, eager to tell Honeystar about the love she felt for Rockpaw.

"I was wondering what I have to do this morning, hunting, training, or patrol?" Rockpaw asked Honeystar. "Actually Honeystar," he started, looking at the ground ,"I have to tell you something." He sat down, wrapping his tail around his paws "Blazepaw and I are...." He stuttered and looked helplessly at her, "In love. And she doesn't want anyone to know except you, and she has dawn patrol, so she said I should tell you." He stopped, and hoped for the best.

Oh no! I have Morning patrol! "I have to go, I have morning border patrol!" Blazepaw called out behind her shoulder, and ran off.
Honeystar's calm green eyes filled with shock. "In.. in.. love?" she whispered. Her gaze rested upon Rockpaw, a cold, dark stare. In love? They're only apprentices.. but that's when I fell in love with.. She couldn't bare to say his name, the pain would be too great. "In love.." she murmured. "It's beautiful, isn't it?" she meowed suddenly, with compassion and sympathy in her voice. "You two are so young.. she's my daughter and you're my apprentice," she meowed to him, hoping he would understand. "I will not keep you two away from each other, but.. please.." she paused, and this time had a threatening look in her eyes. "If you ever, ever hurt her.." Honeystar caught herself at the last words, and said no more. "You know," she meowed to him quietly.

Rockpaw shrunk away, hurt. "I'd never hurt her." Rockpaw said looking Honeystar in the eyes, to show her his promise. "You can make me a loner if I do." He looked at the ground, and gathered the courage he needed. "Why would you say that?" Rockpaw asked. He expected a blow-up, but he wanted to know.

"She's my only daughter! If anyone hurt her.. I would.." Honeystar trailed off, her voice now in a whisper. "I trust you Rockpaw.. Don't break your promise," she meowed, her shining green eyes becoming calm. "Now, we have training," she meowed briskly. I can't stop thinking about him.. the both of them.. he used to be just like Rockpaw her green eyes filled with sorrow, and she quietly sat back down. She started grooming herself furiously, and ended with a soft, paced, lick. "Let's go," she meowed to Rockpaw, knowing she was going to have to get it together. She was the clan leader; she had to be strong for Rockpaw, for Blazepaw, for the clan, and for herself.

"Okay, I have to tell Cherryfrost first. I think she wants us to get some herbs." Rockpaw told her, and when he got her permission, he trotted over to Cherryfrost. "Hey, I am on patrol, need anything.
"Um...." Cherryfrost looked thoughtful, "Some poppy seeds and some coltsfoot would be nice. Thank you." she turned away, back to her herbs.
"Okay," he called to her. He saw the tip of her tail twitch, showing she heard. He walked back to where Honeystar was waiting. "So where today? Can we train with Dragonpaw?" he asked, excited.
(you can post in the territory somewhere, I'll find it)

OOC: With Dragonpaw.. hmm. He's not a very experienced RPer.. I'll make a thread in the training hollow, but not with Dragonpaw.
