Leafpool's POV:
I don't like to keep secrets from my clan, and I'm not sure I could just leave them, but I love Crowfeather, and I want that love to last. " Hi Squirrelflight!"
"Hey Leafpool! I need to talk to you, would now be a good time?" Squirrelflight asks. She's excited, I can tell, and I want to know, but I need some alone time. Then I look at her and sigh, "What is it? I hope it's good!"
"Leafpool, I-I'm... I'm going to have to move into the nursery soon." She meows hesitantly.
"You're-you're... Oh Squirrelflight! Congratulations!" I meow shocked. I narrow my eyes and meow, "Who's the father?" Just then Brambleclaw comes out of the warrior's den looking like a kit who's about to be made an apprentice. He hops over to Thornclaw and urgently meow's something to him. "Brambleclaw?!"
Squirrelflight nods. "When is the kitting?" I ask, forgetting about Crowfeather. "In a moon and a half. Brambleclaw insists I move into the nursery now, but I still want to hunt and patrol. I still want to have my warrior duties, and not sit around." She meows and I purr.
"That's just like you Squirrelflight, but as your sister and medicine cat, I say do as your mate tells you." I meow purring. She's going to have kits! I should be happy, but instead I'm jealous. What is wrong with me?!
"Okay, okay, I will!" She mews purring as well. "See you later, Leafpool!"
"Bye!" I meow, and walk away. I sit down in my lonely den and try to fight my conflicting emotions. I need to see Crowfeather, he would be able to help me. I feel strangely detached from Thunderclan whenever i think of him, and I look forward to seeing him. What type of medicine cat am I?
"Leafpool?" I hear a familiar meow from behind me.
"Crowfeather! What are you doing here?" I meow pleasantly surprised. Then I sniff the air and realize why... I crossed the border!
"I could ask you the same thing." he meows amused.
"Crowfeather, I-I need your help, I don't know what to do!" I wail softly so that no nearby cats hear me.
He narrows his eyes and guides me over to my side of the stream. "What is it?" he asks, concerned.
"I...oh...um-" I stutter trying to find a place to start. "Well-"
"Just tell me what's wrong! Leafpool, this isn't like you at all!" He snaps. The handsome tom smooths down his ruffled chest fur with a swift lick of his tongue and looks at me pleadingly.
"Squirrelflight is pregnant!" I finally manage to blurt out.
"Squirrelflight?! Wow! Aren't you happy for her?" He meows looking directly into my green eyes.
"Yes! Well, no. I don't know! I'm so confused." I struggle to tell him how I feel. I'm was pretty sure he would understand without me having to say it, but I guess I was wrong. "I'm... I'm jealous of her, Crowfeather. I feel like such a terrible sister!"
