Falling behind
"Hollypaw concentrate! You should have got this by now!" Hollypaw sighed at Birchfall's words, he was right, she should have got this ages ago, Rosepaw and Firepaw did, she was just so tired! She knew that she was seriously falling behind with her training but she didn't want to stop meeting Darkclaw, she would miss him.
"I know, sorry, I'll try again." Hollypaw said. She tried to do the move but could feel that her movements were clumsy and slow, she knew that she wasn't any good at all.
She let out a sigh and looked up at Birchfall's face. Instead of having a look of anger or annoyance at her stupidness he looked, worried, interested even.
"Are you all right?" He asked.
"Yeah, course I am, why?" Hollypaw answered, a little to quickly.
"It's just, at the beginning of your training, you were very energetic, a little too energetic some may say, but now, well, you're the absolute opposite, you should of got this move easily, I know you can but you just seem, distracted, distracted and tired." Birchfall said.
"Yeah, it's just, I haven't been sleeping much." Hollypaw said, it was kind of the truth, she hadn't been sleeping much.
"Why haven't you been sleeping much?" Birchfall asked.
"I-I don't know, I just can't seem to get to sleep." Hollypaw lied.
"Maybe you should ask Leafpool or Jayfeather for something to help you sleep then." Birchfall suggested.
"Yeah, maybe." Hollypaw said as she stifled a yawn.
"Is there anything else you want to tell me?" Birchfall asked.
"What do you mean?" Hollypaw asked.
"Well, if there is another reason that you're not sleeping much you could tell me, I won't be angry." Birchfall said.
"No, there isn't another reason, now can we try the move again?" Hollypaw asked.
"No, I think you should go back to camp now, try and get some rest." Birchfall said.
"Okay." Hollypaw said as she turned and made her way out of the training hollow.
Birchfall didn't know, did he? There was no way he could know, was there? Hollypaw racked her brains, trying to think if she had ever let anything slip about her secret night time meetings, but she was sure that she hadn't. Myabe he had followed her, but why would he have done that, why wouldn't he have confronted her about it there and then? Maybe he was just wondering, he didn't actually know but was just thinking that maybe, it didn't matter, as long as he didn't know everything was fine.
Her mind trailed back to her training, and how far behind she was compared to her siblings, it wasn't fair. Then again, it was all her fault, becuase it was her who went out to meet Darkclaw every night, knowing that it was going to affect her training.
But she didn't want to fall behind any further, she knew what she had to do, but it would hurt so much, it would hurt her and it would hurt Darkclaw, but she knew she had to do it.
She was going to have to end it...
Please review thanks :) :P
