Chapter Fourteen of "Tom"
Birchfall and Handsomehandsome sat on the Highledge, looking down at the Clan. Even the kits had come out for the Meeting. The ThunderClan cats waited patiently for the deputy's news.
"Um. Well, Handsomehandsome has requested a Meeting for uh..." The brown tabby looked over at him. "Umm..."
"Yo! Let the tom speak!" One of the cats shouted.
"Yeah, ya imbasil!"
The cats began throwing cups and tomatoes at Birchfall who was the worst public speaker ever. Handsomehandsome sighed and put his paw up.
"Stop it, please." He asked them in his handsome voice.
Immediately, they calmed back down.
"Well," The golden-blue tom began to think. "I've decided I need to settle down with a mate. If you want to be my wife, then please make a line from the Highledge."
The cats who were in love with Handsomehandsome made a neat line under the Highledge while the rest of the Clan hung back to watch.
He leapt back down and began to examine each of his candidates. First in line was Cinderheart.
"Let's see..." He lifted up her paw and checked her whiskers. She had quite the nice pelt and she always did have the prettiest blue eyes. Plus, she was a good kisser. Lionblaze growled from afar. Cinderheart was his mate, not that cockatoo's.
The second in line was Dovewing, who was round with Tigerheart's kits. He immediately rejected her. So far it's 1 for maybe and 1 for no. Plus, Dovewing had blue eyes which had been colored rainbow in Dovewing's Silence and made her look like a Angelkit and Starkit. So she was a no as well.
"Score is 1 to 2, who is gonna win?" The MC shouted. "Will Handsomehandsome be picky and rule out more than half the line, or will he fall in love with nearly all of ThunderClan?!"
"Calm down, Berrynose." Cloudtail hissed.
The third in line was Brightheart. Handsomehandsome shook his head. She hung her head and walked back to the nursery with a drooping tail.
"And it's 1 maybe and 3 nos!"
"SHUT up, Berrynose." Cloudtail cuffed him over the head.
The fourth was Foxleap. Handsomehandsome put a paw on his round belly. He was going to kit soon. He examined his reddish brown striped fur. Foxleap certainly one cute tom. He nodded. The score was 2 to 3.
