After the gathering I had a hard time sleeping. Deciding whether to see him or not, graypaw and I are the only apprentices so she would definitely notice if I left in the middle of the night.

If I got caught the might postpone my warrior ceremony. I stayed up thinking about all the possibilities until morning. When I had the dawn patrol.

"Okay we're patrolling the thunderclan border." Said pikestep.
Not the thunderclan border anything but that. I thought. I trudged after the patrol leading to the border.

The one thing that I didn't want was to run into barkclaw's patrol and that was exactly what happened.
The patrol only had three cats but they were suspicious.
"What are you doing here fox-dung!" hissed the apprentice "stealing prey."
Barkclaw cuffed him around the ears with his paw.
"Quiet dewpaw this isn't your concern or your place to speak." He then turned to our patrol. "What are you doing here? Not stealing prey are we?" he asked.

Pikestep hissed "how dare you accuse us of stealing prey we're on a border patrol so here we are and the looks of you look like a hunting patrol stealing our prey." He accused.
"Fine we'll leave." Muttered barkclaw winking at me.

On our way back to camp, pikestep kept staring at me worth his eyes narrowed.
"What" I said.
"I saw that cat wink at you and I see him with you at gatherings, are you giving away secrets to thunderclan" he hissed.
I looked at him incredulously, and a bit taken back. "No he was an apprentice he was only made a warrior recently I have no idea why he winked at me." I said.

Pikestep only snorted and walked into the warriors den.
"Greenpaw what did you do pikestep looks ticked off." Meowed graypaw.
"Nothing we just had a misunderstanding." I said.

Night time

It was ages until graypaw fell asleep and when she did there were still a few warriors awake so it was hard to get out of camp. When I finally did it took even longer to get to the island.

When I got there I could see barkclaw standing on the high rock staring at the moon, his pelt in the moon light made it look like a greyish blue. It didn't take him long to notice me.

"You came." He greeted me
"Because you asked me too." I replied
I started to get uncomfortable as he started licking and touching me.
"Ugh! What are you doing?!" I asked
"Greenpaw I know you like me and I like you too-"he began
"No! We're both toms it's wrong and we're both in different clans which makes it worse, sigh can I just have some time to think about it maybe a moon I'll tell you next gathering I promise." I said

"Fine see you next gathering." He said

Next moon

It was finally the gathering I was afraid to see barkclaw I had broken the promise and had seen him with my answer half a moon ago. We broke the law of nature and the warrior code.

As I looked for him I finally spotted him sitting down next to grayheart, I thought they hated each other. Yet here they were sitting together tails entwined it sickened me.

Grayheart of all cats she hated him yet my best friend had stolen the love of my life. I was enraged I couldn't believe he didn't feel the same after that night we spent together.

A few days after

Grayheart had moved into the nursery a few days ago, most cats thought I was the father since we had grown up close together. I didn't care what they thought I was still mad at her for what she'd done first she steals him from me then they have kits.

"Greenclaw." Grayheart called for me across the clearing.
"What!" I hissed at her, she was taken aback by this.
"What's your problem, I just need to ask a favour. You might have heard cats saying that you're the father, I need you to pretend to be the father, and they need a father and barkclaw but can't be here."

"I know barkclaw is the father and I'm not covering for you if anything you and your kits are cursed they'll either neglect you, or hate you for the rest of their lives when they find out what you did. This is what you deserve for stealing barkclaw from me." I hissed

After the kits are born and barkclaw takes them.

"Well, well, well grayheart letting barkclaw take the kits smart really…not." I laughed
"What do you want" she hissed wrapping her tail around nightpaw.
"Relax I won't hurt any of the kits to me their like my kin but trust me in the end they will al hate you grayheart it was destined to happen as soon as you find something to replace the three kits you gave barkclaw you'll forget about them poor kits but alas I don't care as long as you feel the pain and suffering I did when you caused this to happen but I can assure you that you have no idea what you're dealing with." I hissed and left
