This was requested by Avolowolf11CC, so yeah. Enjoy this somewhat warped ship XD

Thornsnag was quite busy. And by busy, I mean being rude.

"Wow, Leaftail! You're such a classic. You don't just walk up to a she cat and go, hello. Your fur looks healthy. I mean, really! You're not a medicine cat! You're a terrible flirt!" Thornsnag growled, puffing his chest so he was larger than the tabby warrior. Leaftail bore his lips in a snarl, eyes darting back and forth from Snowwing.

With a spit on the ground, Thornsnag stalked away, towards the apprentice den where his two favorite apprentices lay. Hawkpaw and Jaypaw, however, Hawkpaw seemed to hardly notice him.

"Jaypaw~?" Thornsnag sang, Jaypaw's favorite piece of prey in his jaws; a blackbird. The puffy white apprentice tumbled out of the den, Hawkpaw at his tail. "Hiya, Thornsnag! Hawkpaw, look! Rainpaw's swimming in the snow!" Jaypaw's attention turned to the blue-grey apprentice, who was failing in the snow with Cardinalpaw giggling up a storm, while Pinepaw tried to haul his brother free.

Hawkpaw stumbled after her littermates, tackling Pinepaw. Jaypaw blinked up at Thornsnag.

"Here little guy! Caught this just for you!"

With an excited squeal, Jaypaw snatched the bird from Thornsnag. "You're so cool! I wish you were my mentor, not Shadefur! I wanna be just like you!" Jaypaw meowed, gulping a bite of the scrawny prey.

Thornsnag's ears heated up in embarrassment. "W-well, uh, thanks!" Jaypaw grinned hugely, scampering around Thornsnag's feet. "Take me hunting, take me hunting!" Jaypaw sang, tossing the blackbird bones in the air and catching them in his jaws. Thornsnag purred. "You're so cute, you know that?" Jaypaw froze. "I-I uh, haha, thanks!"

"I'll be honored to hunt with you." Thornsnag trotted out of camp, swishing his tail high in the air for Jaypaw to chase. "I don't smell anything…" The fluffy tom sounded disappointed. Thornsnag wiggled his nose. "Hmmm. Nope, there's a squirrel! I can smell it." Jaypaw's eyes grew large.

"Really? Wow! You're so cool!" Jaypaw cried, his tail tip flicking excitedly. Moments later, Jaypaw caught the squirrel. It was a skinny thing, but Jaypaw was overjoyed. "I got it! I got it!"

Suddenly, a freezing gust of wind kicked up, blowing against the two. With a little shriek of surprise, Jaypaw nosed his way to Thornsnag's warm belly fur. Quite stunned, but oddly happy, Thornsnag curled around Jaypaw, his chocolate fur blocking out the wind. Jaypaw breathed in Thornsnag's soft scent, which was strangely soothing.

"Ahem. Jaypaw, the wind died down…" Thornsnag sounded very embarrassed. Scrambling up, Jaypaw shook his head. "S-sorry!" Jaypaw didn't meet Thornsnag's eyes.

When the two entered camp, Hawkpaw was being checked by Redbreeze. Her head was still fuzzy, and she didn't trust anyone.

"I bet she loved me more." Jaypaw felt rage bubble up in him at Thornsnag's words. "No way! There is no way she ever loved you!" Jaypaw growled.

"Nuh-uh. She loooooves me. And only me." Thornsnag chirped matter-o-factly. Feeling his anger explode, Jaypaw yowled and pounced on Thornsnag. Jaypaw slashed Thornsnag's cheek, drawing blood. Blue-green eyes wide with astonishment, the chocolate warrior stood over Jaypaw triumphantly.

With his claws unsheathed on the apprentice's shoulders, keeping Jaypaw in place, Thornsnag felt his heart racing. "J-Jaypaw?" The warrior came in close to Jaypaw's muzzle. Jaypaw smirked. "Yes, Thornsnag?" Thornsnag gulped. "I-I lo, I mean, I-" Thornsnag stopped as Jaypaw lay a single claw on his mouth. "Tsk, tsk. I already know. I don't think it's Hawkpaw we're crazy about." Jaypaw had a sly grin in his bright blue eyes.

Thornsnag caught on. "Oh, I see. How about we go find ourselves a cozy den and uh, heh. Ya know…" Thornsnag bumped noses with Jaypaw before letting him up.

"Yes, let's."

Okay, sooo. I've never slashed before, but now I have. No, this is NOT a part of Stolen, both toms love Hawkpaw/pool very much, and this is merely a request I was given. Was it good Avolo?
