A/N: StormxRaven, it's been a long wait, but here is your chapter! Enjoy, my amazing readers! And, for those of you that took a guess at the question I asked last chapter, I am sure you are looking to see if your answer is correct! Why did Desertrose put a bunch of seemingly random drawings on her poster? Well, she wanted to prove that she wasn't a diva, so she put on at least one thing that each cat in the school likes, to show that she isn't shallow and self-centered; she pays attention to what everyone else thinks, and cares enough to remember them! All of them! Hopefully that makes sense XD. This is getting too long... ON WITH THE CHAPTER! One last thing: a few questions have been asked if I'm still accepting OCs... the answer is yes! You will just have a loooooooong wait before your chapter.

I feel a tap on my shoulder while I'm staring ahead blankly at the blackboard, daydreaming about someone... someone who shall remained unidentified for now. If only he knew I existed!

"Hey, Stormpelt. Uh... what's up?"

I turn around, about to snap at the cat. No one should interrupt my daydreaming! But then I see who it is. That certain unnamed cat. His black fur shining in the bright lights of the gold and green painted hallway. "Nothing. Why are you here?" I ask, trying to sound calm, even though I am FREAKING. OUT. Ravenpaw wants to talk to me! Oh... so much for him remaining anonymous... heh heh.

"I changed classes, because I was having some difficulty in the one I was in before. So, here I am! I didn't know you were in this class!" He laughs, but looks away. Did he... come into this class on purpose? Knowing I was in it? No, no, that's impossible. Ravenpaw barely speaks to me, let alone switches classes to be with me! But there are also plenty of seats in the room... some of them next to the popular she-cats, yet he chose the one next to me.

"So, I suppose you were in honors chemistry before?" I inquire.

"Yeah. But I guess I need a few lessons on the basics before I delve deeper into the more complicated teachings."

I am about to say something important, but the bell sounds, cutting me off. Fox-hearted bell... even though bells don't have hearts... just an irritating ringing noise. StarClan should send school bells to the Dark Forest...

"Okay, class." Riverstar purrs. She tries to make school fun and interesting, but ultimately fails. Every single day. "Your partners for this semester will be the cat next to you. Hopefully you get along, because you'll need to spend time with them outside of class hours in order to complete your assignments on time!"

Oh. My. StarClan. No way. I'm dreaming, or going insane, or something! Ravenpaw is my partner. Did he plan this? Or is it a coincidence? Or is it fate? I don't know, and I don't care! I'm happy, and if this is a dream, NOBODY is allowed to scratch me awake!

A tail is waved in front of my whiskers, bringing me back to reality, where young cats are forced to learn things that they most likely will never have to know again in their lives.

"Stormpelt?" Ravenpaw asks. "Snap out of it! I asked you if you wanted to meet after school to decide and work on our project!"

"Oh, yeah, that's fine with me. We could eat somewhere, too. Hang out a bit, just for fun." I murmur, still a bit dazed.

"Um... did you just ask me out?"

Oh, StarClan no. I did. I asked him out. StarClan help me, Dark Forest don't tear my love life apart. If he says no in the middle of class, where everyone heard, I'll die of embarrassment.

"Uh... well, I..." I stutter. Yup, dying here. Might as well kill me now!

"Yeah, I'll go on a date with you."

Oh. My. StarClan. AGAIN! He said yes! I don't wanna die! Don't kill me now! I love my life!

"If that's what your implying, I mean..." Ravenpaw looks away. He's shy! It's cute!

"Yeah, I guess I was implying that... meet me at my dorm tonight? 5:30?" I whisper, so other cats don't hear.

"I'm fine with that." He whispers back.

"Hey, do you like skateboarding?" I ask. I'm a tomboy, so I LOVE to skateboard and stuff. We could do that sometime!

"I've never tried it, actually. But it sounds like it would be fun!" He replies.

"Class! I hate to be strict, but you must stop the chit-chat! You all have work to do!" Riverstar calls out, almost singing a little bit.

My phone shakes, notifying me of a text or something. Thank StarClan I left it on vibrate!

Ravenfeather: Anything else to discuss about our date?

That must have been the name Ravenpaw wished he had! Poor him, not getting a full name like everyone else.

ThunderAndLightning: Just where we are going to eat, I guess.

Ravenfeather: Let's just decide later. Okay?

ThunderAndLightning: Kay. See ya tonight! ;3

I shut off my phone, and pay attention to Riverstar, so Ravenpaw and I won't fail our assignment. It's boring, and about stuff that I've heard before, but whatever, I don't want to be the one to fail us!

Xxx

I shut the door, and almost fly over to Darkpelt, my roommate and best friend.

"Guess what?" I shriek.

"What? WHAT?!" She shrieked back.

"I HAVE A DATE TONIGHT!"

"Study date? With a friend?" She asks, skeptical of my information.

"No! I have a life, you know!" I giggle. I know she doesn't mean to be mean or hurtful. "It's a REAL date. With Ravenpaw!"

She jumps off of the chair she was sitting on (playing Candy Crush on her iPhone), and hugs me. "That's great! When is he coming over to pick you up?!"

"In an hour. Then we will be coming beck to study." I confirm.

"I'll be out of your fur while you're studying, but as for the date, we have to get you all cute! More cute than you already are, I mean." She purrs, already darting around, gathering brushes, fur clips, claw polish, and a million other things. Oh, StarClan, it's gonna be a long hour... "Sit in the chair... I don't bite!"

"You can go overboard, though..." I mutter teasingly, taking a seat in the soft beanbag chair. "So, what's your plan?"

"Well, I'd like it to surprise you! But the theme I'm going for: cool kitty with a flirty side!" She sings, waving her paws all over in complicated gestures.

"Is that even a real thing?!" I laugh. "Whatever, as long as I don't look creepy or insane!"

"Just relax, and listen to Taylor." She inserts Red into the CD play, which usually holds more 1D and Selena Gomez than Taylor Swift... how cats can change during a single day!

I decide to just ignore the small bit of pain I have from all the tugging on my fur.

Aw, great. Darkpelt is singing along very loudly (and off pitch, might I add) to 22.

"It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hipsters, and make fun of our exes..."

I can't help but laugh, and Darkpelt laughs with me. "Okay, okay, you're about done!" She smiles.

I get up off of the chair, and look in the full length mirror. "Wow..." I whisper, amazed. "This is awesome!"

A knock sounds at the door. It must be Ravenpaw! I scramble over to open it.

"Oh my... Ravenpaw, you shouldn't have!" I shriek. He brought me a tiny bouquet of flowers!

"You... you like them?" He stutters nervously. "I was afraid that you'd hate them..."

"Aw, of course I like them!" I giggle, placing the roses on the table next to the mirror. "So, where are we eating tonight?"

"Um, well, I thought maybe we could go to this restaurant that has a lot of fresh foods. It has a nice view of the lake!"

I let out a wide smile. "Sounds fun! Let's go!"

He nods, and lets me pad out the door first. Ravenpaw is so sweet!

"Have fun!" Darkpelt calls out after us. I didn't need her to tell us that; I knew we would, no matter what she said!

OKAY! My apologies for the long wait. My life has been eaten up by school, sports, and homework :(. Now, don't go thinking this is the end! I'm splitting up this chapter into 2 parts, so it wouldn't be as long (and so I could get an update out to all of you awesome people! :3). Hope this is okay with all of you!
