I do not own warriors or most of these cats they come from a create a cat

The second one-shot in my little shot story is here. I'm going a bit into the past with this one so most of the non-main cats came from the top of my head. I call this one…

Oceanshell's search for love

The day I had been waiting my whole life for had come and gone. I was finally made a warrior yesterday, along with my friends Thistlesand, Petalsky, Cloudstorm, and Crowpond. Ravenwing and Mosseyes were made warriors too but they weren't our friends, they were the opposite actually. Mosseyes had a crush on Thistlesand and was mad because Petalsky and I were his friends, Ravenwing didn't like us because he liked Mosseyes and did whatever she said.

I stretched and walked out of the warriors den and into the fresh morning air. It was the perfect time for a hunt.

"Oceanshell, I want you to lead a hunting patrol out pick whoever you like." Bluegaze the deputy of Shellclan, my clan, said.

"Okay then." I replied.

I walked back into the warriors den and found Thistlesand and Cloudstorm just waking up.

"Hey guys, come hunt with me. Bluegaze told me she wanted me to get a patrol." I whispered as not to wake any cat up.

They nodded and followed me out.

"Don't you think we need one more cat?" Cloudstorm asked.

I shook my head no and started toward the bramble entrance.

When we got a bit of distance from the camp, Cloudstorm decided to start a conversation.

"Have you guys thought of taking a mate yet?" he asked almost out of the blue.

"I'm sorry Cloudstorm but I've got my eyes on another tom." I said thinking he was referring to me.

"I'm not talking about you Oceanshell." I sighed in relief. "I was talking about Rosepaw, she told me last night when we went hunting together." Cloudstorm said, he got the dreamy look in his eyes and I had to slap my tail against his face to get him to snap out of it.

"Good for you Cloudstorm. I've actually wanted to tell some cat for a while now." Thistlesand said.

I gasped. I was Thistlesand's closest friend in our entire group, how could he not tell me who he liked.

"I just don't think she notices me though." he finished, ending in a sad tone.

"Don't worry Thistlesand. Any she-cat would be lucky to have you as a mate." I told him to cheer him up. It obviously worked because he seemed a lot better.

"So who do you like Oceanshell?" Cloudstorm asked me.

"Well I've liked Foxface since a little bit before he was made a warrior." I confessed.

"Him, but he's so full of himself?" Thistlesand gasped.

"Oh yeah well who do you like?" I asked him.

Thistlesand got a nervous look on his face and stammered for a bit before blurting out it out.

"I uh like… um uh. I like… Sandlily!"

I felt a pang in my chest when he said the she-cat's name, like someone clawed me. Was it sadness, jealousy? Whatever it was I didn't like it.

"Oh, well we better get started hunting before we waste the day away talking." I then padded on ahead of the guys.

When we arrived back at camp I saw Foxface sitting near the warriors den surrounded by most of the she-cats in the clan even some of the older apprentices. I would usually go over there and try to get him to notice me but, I didn't feel the longing of wanting him as I used to. I guess the maturity of becoming a warrior has gotten through to me.

Instead I picked up a water vole and walked over to Petalsky who was eating a mouse on the other side of the clearing.

"Hey Oceanshell, why do you look so sad?" she asked me as I sat down next to her.

Taking a deep breath I told her how I didn't want to go over to Foxface and that I felt weird when Thistlesand said he liked Sandlily.

"Looks like somebody is in love with Thistlesand." she told me.

"No I'm not!" I protested. "And even if I was he doesn't like me he likes Sandlily."

"He doesn't like Sandlily. He was covering up who he really likes but I can't tell you." Petalsky said.

"What, why not!"

"I promised not to tell." she told me. "But if you really like him, you should go talk to him."

"Oh I'm going to talk to him alright; I want to know who he likes. He can't keep hiding things from me like that we're supposed to be friends." I said angrily stomping away, leaving my untouched water vole.

It was night when I found Thistlesand about to walk into the warriors den. I ran over to him and stopped him from entering.

"Can we talk?" I asked him. He nodded and we walked into the forest together.

While we were walking our pelts brushed for less than a heartbeat, it felt like lightning was going through my veins. I watched as his mottled brown coat that was splotched with a sand color waved in the breeze. My heart sped up and it felt like how I used to feel for Foxface, only different.

"What did you want to talk about Oceanshell?" he asked me, snapping me out of my thoughts. I had almost forgotten.

"Tell me the real cat you like. You can't hide it from me forever and you've told all of our friend except me, and we're supposed to be best friends." I told him looking straight at him, my expression changing from anger to hurt.

"I would but if I do can we still be friends?" he asked me. He was looking at his paws instead of me and I could tell he was a bit embarrassed.

"Of course Thistlesand." I told him.

"I like you okay actually I love you. I've loved you ever since we were kits and you helped me get Mosseyes away from me." Thistlesand sat there next to me not moving.

A smile formed on my face and I felt like yowling to the moon, I was so happy. Instead I decided to lick Thistlesand on the cheek, which caused him to look up his expression pure shock and surprise.

"I love you too Thistlesand." I told him while purring more than I've ever purred in my life.

Thistlesand, I could tell, was relived and happy. He went up to me and nuzzled my muzzle.

"Would you like to be my mate?" he asked me.

"Of course." I purred.

Together we walked back to the camp with our pelts brushing and our tails intertwined with each other's. When we walked into camp I could see Petalsky sitting in the shadows watching us. Next task as a warrior find Petalsky a mate.
