A/N: This is for you, Gabby! (You may know her as the famous Kewix of Warriors fanfiction.)
Chapter 1-
There, You See Her…
There, you see her…
Cloudtail looked up. He had been lying in the warriors' den, but now felt like stretching. Opening his jaws to a yawn, he padded off the nursery to find his close friend- Daisy.
Sitting there across the way…
He saw her sitting right outside the nursery, and none of her kits were in sight. Good. He wanted a moment alone with her.
"Daisy!" Cloudtail called. Daisy's head jerked up, as if she'd been startled out of a reverie.
She don't got a lot to say…
"Yes?" she answered. Cloudtail found himself momentarily lost in the twin pools of blue. He shook his head to clear himself of it. Daisy was just a friend, nothing more. All he wanted to do today was to check on her and her kits. Just to make sure they were getting along fine. That was it. They were simply friends. His mate was Brightheart, and it always will be.
But was Daisy really just a friend? Or was she more? Much more?
The thought sent a shiver down his spine. Looking upon the brown she-cat now, it was easily to imagine this to be true. But he had dedicated his life to Brightheart already. And their kit, Whitepaw. They were everything to him.
If a cat asked him a few moons ago who mattered more, Daisy or Brightheart, Cloudtail would answer "Brightheart" without hesitation. But now, he was not so sure.
But there's something about her…
And yet, how could he not be sure? After rescuing Brightheart from the dogs, in addition to growing up with her… How could he just throw it all away?
And you don't know why…
But Daisy… she had a special quality to her. It was the same thing that made Cloudtail fall in love with Brightheart once. A loving kindness… A gentle subtlety that would be hard to be noticed, yet wound with their beings so that without it, Daisy and Brightheart would both be different, not themselves.
But you're dying to try…
"Cloudtail?" Now it was Cloudtail's turn to snap back to reality. "What did you want to tell me?"
"How… How are the kits?" he asked, stumbling over his words.
Daisy let out a tremendous purr. "They're little darlings, though they're sometimes mischievous. They'll grow up to be fine young cats."
"I'm sure they will," Cloudtail answered, pressing closer to Daisy. She purred louder.
You wanna kiss girl…
He couldn't help it. Just as he was about to lower his muzzle on to her head a voice called.
"Cloudtail!"
Brightheart!
A/N: Ooh, cliffie! Yeah, I agree. Not too great at it, huh? Most of my stories/chappies are short, so I wouldn't expect a long five-page chapter if I were you. However, usually, once I put up a chapter, I try to put up another as fast as I can. So, R&R, everyone, even if it's flames!
