Dovewing slowly brushed against Bumblestripe's pelt as they raced through the forest.

"HA!" Dovewing yowled with victory.

"You're….. so… fast…" Bumblestripe panted.

"Here, let me show you something." meowed Bumblestripe, quickly regaining his breath.

"Okay!" Dovewing chirped.

The moon made Bumblestripe and Dovewing's pelt glimmer, as they padded through ferns and swivelled around oaks.

The last of the ferns were large ferns.

"Come through here." Bumblestripe purred, as he padded through the ferns, Dovewing following not far behind. As Dovewing padded through the ferns, she gasped.

"Wow…." she breathed.

Through the thick layer of ferns, there was a small clearing, surrounded by tall oaks, towering above the two cats' heads. The clearing was lined with jasmine and undergrowth was easily seen past it. Just at the edge of the clearing, there was a stream that appeared to lead from underground, and right at the other side of the clearing, there was a cliff that a cat could easily fall over, but a cat could clearly see the beautiful moonlight, that shimmered on the ground in front of the two cats. And in the middle of the clearing, were two nests, lined with moss and feathers. Dovewing cautiously padded forward, and peered over the cliff to see what was to see if you fell. A stream was running down there, surrounded by sand. She quickly padded back, to stand next to Bumblestripe.

"Bumblestripe…"

Dovewing could almost feel Bumblestripe going hot with embarrassment.

"What, you don't like it? I-I could take you home if you like?" stuttered Bumblestripe with embarrassment

"Bumblestripe, it's beautiful!" Dovewing purred.

"It is, isn't it?" Bumblestripe purred.

"I-I come here sometimes to look at the view. Alone." Bumblestripe admitted, looking away with embarrassment.

The moon was at the top of the sky, and a star glimmered.

"Do you think that's Firestar?" asked Dovewing quietly, pointing her tail at a large, shining star.

"Why?" asked Bumblestripe.

Dovewing padded closer, so close that the two cats pelts touched.

"I think he approves of our relationship." whispered Dovewing.

"Do you think so?" Bumblestripe asked, his sweet breath brushing beside Dovewing's cheek.

"I do." whispered Dovewing, suddenly noticing that her and Bumblestripe's tail was beginning to twine together.

"Do you think Bramblestar will be looking for us?" whispered Dovewing.

"No, I told him that I'll be going out with you, until dawn." replied Bumblestripe.

"Until dawn?" queried Dovewing.

"Yes." Bumblestripe meowed, pointing his nose in the direction of the nests.

"It's getting late, we should go to sleep." Bumblestripe meowed.

Dovewing nodded. The two cats padded into their nests.

"Goodnight Dovewing." Bumblestripe meowed.

Dovewing noticed he wanted to say "I love you."

"Goodnight Bumblestripe." Dovewing quietly replied.

I love you too. Dovewing thought, before drifting into a peaceful slumber.

THE END.
