Willowshine awoke to the sound of purrs and meows of pure happiness. She was expecting to be lying down in her nest in the Riverclan medicine den, but instead she woke up in a clearing with two figures. Her vision was blurry due to the sleep in her eyes so all she made out was a tall, grey looking figure hugging a small tortoiseshell she-cat. She didn't even need to have her vision completely to know who the she-cat was.
"Hope I'm not interrupting anything." She said drowsily.
She saw the young cat twitch and slowly creak her head out the warm chest fur of the tom.
"No, no, no, we're not doing anything like that!" Songpaw said with a bit of shock in her voice.
"It's alright Songpaw. There's no need for stress after what you told me." Jayfeather said as he playfully nudged the young apprentice. She looked up with relief in her light green eyes and she swung her fluffy tail side to side in joy.
"Umm . . . did I miss something?" Willowshine said with a look of confusion towards the two. Jayfeather finally got up and padded over to the medicine cat. He was a lips distance away and she was about to kiss him right then and there, but he then spoke.
"Nope, in fact, it was something for me to show you. Songpaw go back with the others." He said turning his head a full 180 degrees.
"But mentor, How will you find your way out?" she said, full of worry.
"Don't worry; I have Willowshine to guide me." He said giving her an inescapable smile.
"Hmph, fine but don't get too far behind." She said as she exited the clearing, giving us both, even Willowshine, a joyful smile. Jayfeather then turned around to face Willowshine again, same distance as they were.
"Willowshine, you know about my mother and father, right, and how they broke the code." He said with a serious tone in his voice.
"Yeah, it was told at the gathering."
"Well you should know that it pissed me off not knowing that my true mother was the medicine cat of Thunderclan and not a simple warrior, who fights with claw and tooth and not with their wisdom and common sense." He said, being open towards the medicine cat.
"Jayfeather, why are you telling me this?" she said full of confusion.
"You're the only one that I can tell things to and won't call me a blind and insane tom. You're the one that I can rely on most in this world. You're the one I lo-Whoa!" He said, now completely shocked.
Willowshine heard enough, she got the message
. . .
So she thought fuck it.
"SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!" she yowled, tackling him to the ground.
"I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU DAMNIT! I always have, since the day I met you!" she yowled.
"Yes, you're a pain in the ass. Yes, you are an arrogant son of a bitch. Yes, you are the most pessimistic, the angriest, the most confusing, the most caring, and the most loving tom I have ever met in my life. So laugh, laugh at how stupid I must be right now, breaking the code by being in love with someone and him being from a different clan! Just drag me to camp and tell Mistystar the taboo that I have committed! Tell her tha-." She stopped and stood there mind blown at what just happened.
Jayfeather had reached his head up and kissed her.
She was completely frozen; all she did was stand on top of him and just take it.
"OH MY FUCKING STARCLAN! HALLELUJAH, HA HA HA, OH YEAH BABY, GO ON KEEP IT GOING, WOO-HOO!" Mothwing screamed in the background as she saw her former apprentice getting kissed by the love of her life. This went on for maybe thirty more seconds and then it stopped.
"If you consider telling me you love me as punishable as taboo, then consider me sent to the dark forest." He said as he got up from the ground.
"J-J-Jayfeather, you're in l-l-l-love with me?!" she stuttered.
"Well, if you hadn't pushed me down and beaten me to the punch, then I would've told you that myself. Yes, I, Jayfeather, blind medicine cat of Thunderclan, declare my love to the kindest and most caring medicine cat in Riverclan, Willowshine . . . How'd it sound?" he said as if he was proposing.
"I-I'm at a loss for words right now. But c-c-can you do that t-thing you did before." She said looking at him in disbelief. He padded back to her and pushed her to the ground.
"What, this?" He said as he bent down to kiss her once again.
"Hm, yep, exactly that." She said seductively as she wrapped her tail around his waist to bring him back down. She kissed him time and time again and he accepted it time and time again. They both then broke away and got their senses back.
"Well I guess we should be going, they are probably wondering where we are." Said Willowshine.
"Right let's go." he said. They both got up and walked out tails twined, but as they barely made it out . . . Jayfeather passed out.
