XX. Apology- A Bramble X Squirrel Fan-fic

Night crashed over the camp like a thick black wave. Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight padded along the shoreline of the lake, and found a place to lie down. Brambleclaw was delighted to be with Squirrelflight again, and to be drinking in her warm scent. The night was silent, nothing could be heard except for the miniature waves that swept along the shoreline.

"B-Brambleclaw," Squirrelflight meowed.

Brambleclaw stopped staring into the depths of the lake. He looked up to where his and Squirrelflight's eyes met. "What is it?"

Squirrelflight blinked. "I just wanted to apologize for everything."

Brambleclaw stared into her emerald gaze.

"Brambleclaw, I'm sorry that I broke up with you," she meowed. "I suppose our quarrels got a bit out of hand."

Brambleclaw nodded in agreement, and looked down. He could see that Squirrelflight's paws were approaching to hold his paw tight. He let out a small purr, and looked up into her jade colored gaze again.

"Being with Ashfur was the worst thing I have ever done," she continued, "But now I know that it should have been you and me instead. She pressed her muzzle into Brambleclaw's soft fur.

Brambleclaw touched noses with her. "Just promise me something," he whispered.

"What is it?"

"Please, don't leave my side ever again."
