I had always looked up to her when I was a kit, but that's normal. All kits are going to look up to the apprentices. I think it was different in my case because she was the only apprentice to look up to. The day I became an apprentice was a happy day for me. I didn't know it then, but it wasn't only because I could finally train to become a warrior... it was also because I got to be with her. Quite a while after I received my warrior name, a lot happened. We... we grew apart. At the time I shrugged it off. She was just an ordinary cat to me. But I remember that one morning when she brought a squirrel over and asked me, "Care to share this with me? I don't think I can finish this whole thing.". And at that moment I realized that I had missed her for those moons we weren't together. I had something special... something special that I cannot let go again. I've fallen for her.
Whenever I'm around her, the temerature seems to rise. When our pelts brush, it sends electric shocks all throughout my body. I have never felt this way about another cat before, and I have this feeling. This feeling that is telling me that this is right where I want to be.
Yeah, I've thought about the future. I just need to comfirm that she feels the same way about me that I do her. I truly do feel that we could have a beautiful future together, I just need to step it up and try harder.
"Birchfall, do you want to go hunting?" she asked, inturrupting my train of thought. I grinned.
"Yes, just a minute."
So yes, Whitewing is beautiful and amazing, but she can catch more prey than me paws down. I could totally get used to that, though, because I plan on going hunting with her for the rest of my time.
