A/N Hello and welcome to my second WATN Writing Challenge. This challenge was to take your favorite pair of lovebirds (from our forum) and write a cute little one-shot involving them. It can be a one-sided love or both can be in love with each other. Have fun!
Warning, this is probably going to be a little short.
The snow white she-cat sat there in camp, head on her dainty black paws, watching the flame pelted tom as he went about watching the camp. As a camp guard, neither of them really had much to do; so they occasionally got to talk. Most of the time she felt like she was a blabbering idiot when she spoke to the tom, when she did build up the guts to talk to him.
She sighed and rolled over onto her back, looking up at the sky. Ivysnow exhaled deeply as she closed her eyes, drifting into her thoughts. Before she knew it, a paw was prodding her shoulder. Her bright green eyes flickered open and she looked at the flame pelted tom in front of her. "O-oh, hey Russetnose," she said, quickly getting to her paws and shaking her pelt off. He looked at her with a cool gaze and nodded his head to the outside of camp. "Meet me by the honeysuckle bush tonight, make sure no one follows you," he said quietly before padding off. Confused, but excited, she skipped to her nest and curled up. Time seemed to fly and before she knew it, it was night.
As instructed, she followed Russetnose's directions and met him by the honeysuckle bush. Her curiosity and confusion grew as he looked around to make sure no one followed her. "What is this about?" she asked. He smiled at her faintly and moved some bushes out of the way, revealing a hole. "Just follow me," he said kindly and slipped through the hole. Her heart fluttered and she did, moving the bushes behind her so no one could follow through the hole.
Having never been out of camp, Ivysnow widened her eyes in disbelief and awe. Russetnose smiled at her. "Do you like it out here?" Ivysnow looked at him with shock. "Like it...I love it out here!" she said, but was careful enough to keep her voice relatively low so the camp wouldn't hear her. The white she-cat was surprised when she heard Russetnose purr lightly. "Well, if you like that, follow me!" he said, bounding off onto the plains of their territory. She quickly followed him, her heart soaring from the experience of being outside the camp for once.
He stopped once he got to a grassy meadow and he looked up towards the sunrise. She stopped next to him and filled with dread. "Should we get back soon? It's almost morning," she said in a worried voice. He shook his head and nudges her with his nose. "Just relax for a minute, watch the sunrise," he said coolly. She turned her head to look at it, and widened her eyes in awe once more. Beautiful splashes of orange, red, and yellow painted the morning sky. "Wow..." she said breathlessly.
He nodded slowly, then turned to her. She looked back at him, her green eyes shinning brilliantly in the light of the sunrise. He leaned forward slowly and pressed his muzzle into Ivysnow's shoulder. Her heart thumped rapidly and her breath hitched in her throat. "R-russetnose," she said nervously. He murmured something and looked up at her.
"Ivysnow, I...I didn't realize it before...I was blind all those moons..." he started. She was frozen in surprise and could only gaze at the tom. "Ivysnow I've never felt this way for someone before...I think I love you," he confessed. She widened her eyes and buried her muzzle into his fur. "Russetnose, I-I love you too," she said, hardly believing this was actually happening. They both purred deeply, picking their heads up and putting their foreheads to each other. He looked into her eyes, smiling.
"Ivysnow..."
"Ivysnow..."
"Ivysnow!" she jumped up slightly as she heard her name being called. She looked up at Russetnose and quickly got to her paws. "Y-yeah?" she asked, chuckling nervously. Russetnose gave her a confused look, but ended up shrugging it off. "It's your turn to watch the camp entrance," he said. "Ok, got it!" she chuckled nervously. He gave her one last look before padding away, to which she let out a sigh of relief and watched him leave. Will my dream ever come true?
A/N Well, sorry that seemed rushed. Hope you liked the little fluff in there, sorry if it's bad, I'm not really used to writing...happy things hehe. If Russetnose seemed off, that was just because her whole interaction with him from "drifting into her thoughts" to "Ivysnow..." was a dream. Russetnose belongs to IWalkBlindlyIntoTheShadows and I own Ivysnow.
