(I'm in a lazy mood) MapleStone [/size][/font] Maplestone sat beneath the highest oak tree in the area letting his steel blue eyes close softly and rest he felt as if he was extinguished of life from staying up last night to watch over the clan and to make sure the new warriors were behaving. He allowed his fur to relax down and cover him as a warm, multicolored blanket. He smiled softly as he fell off into a dozing stage underneath the shade of the oak tree. MapleStone had let his guard down thinking he was alone. Was he?[ |

Blackheart padded into camp, a large squirrel in between her jaws. She glanced around, avoiding the snickers and glares from the other cats as she went for the fresh kill pile, dropping the creature and not giving her clanmates a second thought. She was there to survive, not make friends. She pulled herself into a shady area and sat herself down, flicking her tail back and forth in front of her, closing her dark blue eyes in thought and letting out a soft sigh.

He sneezed as some soft black fur tickled his nose. He looked up and saw the she-cat. Maplestone then closed his silver eyes to appear he was sleeping. This was also done for the fact that he did not want this she-cat to beat him up for looking at her back side with out her permission and him being so close to her.

Blackheart opened her eyes, and paid little attention to the tom cat a couple feet away. She settled herself down onto her belly, her left leg still sore from her last battle. She seemed to have no interest whatsoever in Maplestone, barely glancing at him. Her thoughts wandered away, like always toward her father.
(Lame, I know)

MapleStone [/size][/font] He smiled softly before rising to his feet and sitting next to the black she-cat. He rested his eyes on her paws. Making sure he was a few tail lengths away he tried to talk to her. Hello, I'm MapleStone. I don't think I've seen you around here before. I'd just like to tell you, you look very lovely in this lighting. My dear.[/font][/size] he said softly being as polite as he possible could be to who he thought was a new arrival. |

Blackheart switched her gaze toward the tom who sat next to her. She couldn't help but grin at his attempt to be nice. "Thanks," she replied, curling her plumy tail over her dark paws, "How are you this morning, Maplestone...? I go by Blackheart, by the way."
Her eyes shone with amusement.

MapleStone [/size][/font] I am good. What are you doing under the tree today?[/size] He asked trying not to sound too friendly. He jokingly flicked her tail over stepping his boundaries by touching her in a place like that. He gave her a playful smirk and tried to make his silver-blue eyes appear to be filled with innocence. Some how he had a feeling it would be okay to act like this around this one she-cat. She was the only female he would ever have enough courage around to do so. He scooted a little close before licking her ear. His excuse for this was she had a leaf in her fur, which was clearly a lie. |

Blackheart stiffened slightly when he brought his tongue over her ear, digging her claws into the soft dirt to keep from swatting at his head. She didn't take lightly to flirtatious gestures too well, but nodded a bit and forced a smile. "Today seems like it's going to be a good day..." she murmured, staring ahead of her. If only this cat knew what I have been through, I don't think he would trust me so easy. He's the only one that does....

MapleStone [/size][/font] He felt her stiffen a little bit. He retracted his rough pink tongue back behind his white lips. MapleStone tilted his head a little as if to ask what was wrong. Upon hearing her words he smiled softly. Now, Why do you say that, Miss? You look awfully tired. And your leg looks beat. Why don't you go rest, Blackheart. I'll be here in the morning when you wake, if you want me here.[/size][/font] he murmured softly. His amount of respect for this cat was higher than normal. Why was that? He shouldn't be so respectful to a person he didn't know. He laid down on his white underside and rested his multicolor head down on his snow white paws. Wonder and questions were dancing in his eyes. His heart was beating a little louder and faster than usual. What was this feeling? When had this happen? He some how felt as if he had known BlackHeart for a long time. As if he met her in another life. He kept these thoughts locked in his body. If he did know her, they had probably fought against each other. MapleStone didn't want to make things awkward or to show that he had these unexplainable emotions inside his being. Not yet, at least. |

Blackheart smiled gently, nodding in his direction. She closed her eyes warily and sighed. "Many things have happened in the past," I replied, resting myself down into a laying position, still aimlessly flicking my tail. I felt it brush up against his and shivers shot down my spine. I didn't know why, but this seemed as though this cat was different than the rest. Maybe he wasn't so bad after all, judgemental like others were toward her because of her appearance. She glanced over at him, her mind reeling. "I only wish that I could be accepted here..." She continued on, her voice trailing off. She really did seem like a quiet she-cat, but on the inside she just wanted to be herself but get the respect she hoped for at the same time.

MapleStone [/size][/font] He looked down upon his white paws. I will always welcome and respect you...[/size][/font] he whispered. Gently a massive white paw was raised and placed lightly on top of BlackHeart's black paw. It was a simple caring gesture. He felt he had to protect her. Protecting her would make him feel important at least. |

Blackheart glanced down at her paw and smiled faintly. "Thank you...." She murmured, licking the top of his gently. Everything about him was different. He automatically felt the need to sort of...watch over her, yet he barely knew her, let alone her terrible past. Her ears swiveled around, thinking she heard movement behind her, but when her head shot up, there was nothing there. She wanted to slap herself for being so paranoid about her father....yet she could'nt seem to push the feeling away that she was being watched.

MapleStone [/size][/font] He smiled softly before pulling her closer to him. Don't worry. I'll protect you. You can count on that.[/size] The words flowed off his lips like they were there the whole time. He didn't ever want Blackheart to be in pain again. He didn't know her past. But, just by looking at her leg, he understood she had been through a lot. The way she acted made it clear she was scared of what ever had happened. It could have been a two-leg for all he knew. Yet, some how deep inside his being, he wanted to make sure that never happened again. At least, as long as he was alive. With that thought in his head it was clear. He would lay down his life for her. That was something he would not want to do for any one else. But, for her, it was worth it. Every ounce of it. |

(I need to switch to first person, otherwise I'll slip up and end up doing half third and half first ._. )
Moments later, my heart stopped racing as I relaxed, sheathing my claws and leaning against his shoulder gently. I closed my dark blue eyes and nuzzled my face into his fur, feeling like a wave of uncertainty had fallen over me. It hurt, the anxiety was almost overwhelming, but I decided to take it like the warrior I knew I was. I gave a slight nod, not thinking of anything else now that Maplestone's scent was seeming to clear my head. Allthat was on my mind was him and his calming voice. My nerves were calmed by this, and it surprised me. I was never this willing to talk to, let alone touch another cat of the clan. It didn't feel right, like I belonged. But now I felt it. Like I belonged when this tom was around. I shivered gently, and brought my head up, studying his face. Why do you care so much about me, even though you just met me? You barely know anything about me except my name. I purred, a skeptical countanence.

MapleStone [/size][/font] That question she asked was on his mind too. Why did he care so much about her? He looked into her eyes softly I think... Because I care about you. I feel we have a connection between us. I don't know how or when or if we ever met before today. But, I feel like I know you. And I feel you are very important in my heart and life. he said in a whisper. He was terrorized this would scare her. After all, they had only just met. |
