ppsst...PPPPPSSSSSSSTTTT!" Birch Tail woke up to excessive whispering coming from the entrance of the medicine den. As she slowly opened her eyes she became aware of Cedar Furs tail resting on her back. 'He looks so peaceful when he sleeps' she thought affectionately. Birch Tail seemed to be captivated into watching the gentle rising and falling of his chest.
However she was snapped back to reality by the whispering again. She reluctantly Climbed out of the nest careful as to not disturb Cedar Fur, Birch Tail silently padded out of the den only to find Dawn Breeze crouched at the entrance. "Took ya long enough" she meowed grudgingly however her annoyance didn't last long and her eyes began to sparkle with mischief. "Sooooo how was your night with Cedar Fur" she purred teasingly. Birch Tail was aware of her pelt burning. "Be quiet!" She hissed. Dawn Breeze giggled.
"So did you wake me up to tease me or is there something else going on?" Birch Tail glanced longingly at the nest and Cedar Fur. "I wanted to see how you were doing, word spreads fast here at camp...so what exactly happened?" As Birch Tail finished briefly explaining about her lunge into the lake, she looked expectantly at Dawn Breeze waiting for the sure to come comment.
And the inevitable Dawn Breeze nudged her "looks like he really cares about you huh?" She meowed. "Y-you think so?" Birch Tail mewed hopefully. Dawn Breeze lifted a paw in response "I won't interfere any further." She purred "now go on back" she teased.
As Birch Tail made herself comfortable in the nest she could hear Cedar Fur softly murmuring in his sleep."get back you ShadowClan flea-bags!" He then muttered something inaudible. Birch Tail stiffled a purr and gingerly laid her tail on his flank.
