Raitopaw and Larkpaw

[*Goldy`!]

Larkpaw smiled as she heard him say straight out that he loved her. "I love you too Raitopaw. A lot." She opened her eyes and breathed in deep and taking several heartbeats before letting go. "Will you lay down with me? I had a hard day with Ivytail and I'm tired. These reeds look comfortable." She plopped down and made herself comfortable on top of the small hill. She glanced up at him with her hazel eyes, overcome with despair. This could never work out, Ivytail would get so mad at her. This was wrong, it was against the warrior code that they had been taught to follow since they'd been born in the nursery. Though she realized she loved him, she knew it was terribly wrong and it pained her.

Raitopaw blushed. "But....How could you...love an outcast like me...? And also y...y...your a Medicine cat...how can this...?" He stopped himself. He didn't really need to say the rest he knew she knew what he was gonna say. "Fox dung! what have i gotten myself into!?" He screamed in his head. "I guess...It's too late now...It's all my fault argh!!!" He screamed once again in his troubled mind. Raitopaw sighed. "Of course i'll lay down with you..." He said sadly as he plopped down next to her. Even in his sadness however he couldn't help but be overcome with emotion anyways. So he shoved his pelt into his so their bodies were fully touching and he licked her cheek but looked away afterwards, blushing of course. "I...I love you..." He murmured to her again as his mind continued to wirl with emotion and confusion.

[*Goldy`!]

Larkpaw exhaled heavily with pleasure as Raitopaw layed down with her. She smiled when he licked her cheek, turning and touching her nose to his ear. "What's the matter? You seem troubled. And I don't care if you're an outcast or I'm a medicine cat. I love you the way you are, the reason I love you is because I felt horrible when I saw how cats treated you, I wanted to help; it's mystinct to help people as a medicine cat. That's how I fell in love with you in the first place. So if it weren't for our positions now, we probably wouldn't be here together, right now...so close...and feel this way..." She trailed off. She now knew he loved her but he was so distraught about it, it made her feel horrible. But, even though all of this pain and grief was going on between the two of the, she couldn't help but be happy somehwere inside. Ever since she was a kit, she wanted a mate, she wanted to love, and now she could. This thought pleased her but all of the destruction it was ccausing was kind of ruining it. She didn't exactly care though; she tried to put it out of her mind. And she was hoping he would too.

[Swiftfire]

"Alright...i guess...it cant be helped right now...i knew this might happen in the end anyway...i tried to forget you since you became a medicine cat...but i couldn't...because...i...i love you too much..." He admitted blushing. "I promise you...i wont let ANYONE find out...and i will NEVER hurt you." Raitopaw promised her as he licked her cheek several times showing her some of how much he truly loved her. "I wont ever leave you Larkpaw..." He promised once again. He truly was practically obsessed with her deep inside.

[*Goldy`!]

Larkpaw's smile was small but it was incredibly heartfelt. Something in her chest was fluttering at highspeed at the intamate moment. "I-I don't think you'd ever hurt me, Raitopaw. I know that you love me, and I love you so much. And I promise not to tell anyone either..." She slightly hesitated before going on. "B-but, I just...I just... I hate keeping things from Ivytail, especially things this big." She slowly looked up at Raitopaw and stared him deep in the eyes, sighing heavily. She leaned forward and rubbed her head affectionately on his shoulder, purring so loud she was sure the clan could here her back at camp. Trying to lighten the mood a tiny bit, she swiped her paw over his ear, smiling and giggling like a little kit.

[Swiftfire]

Raitopaw was slightly confused. Larkpaw was studdering too? She was...More worried about this then he thought. He had tried to lighten the mood by telling her how much he loved her and all that...looks like it didn't work. he sighed. "I know...I feel bad too." He told her. "But as long as it's me and you...I'll be fine. He smiled slightly. "I'll always love you Larkpaw. He smiled and purred as well.

[*Goldy`!]

Larkpaw stopped giggling but that didn't mean she wasn't happy. She had a large grin on her face and it looked kind of goofy but she didn't care. Her tail curled around in the air like a sidewinder. She tried to calm it down but nothing happened. Her level of happiness was so high, she felt like she might burst. She sighed, "Raitopaw, I'm so glad this is happening. I'm always going to stick with you, and love you. And I don't want you to feel bad, there's no need to; I'll figure it out." She smiled and looked at him. "And, if I have to, I'll...I'll step down as medicine cat so we can be together. I will. Bu-But only if I-I have to." She stuttered. She hadn't realized how much she loved being a medicine cat apprentice but she loveed Raitopaw and was willing to give it up.

[Swiftfire]

Raitopaw flinched. "Y...you would g...give up being a medicine cat...for me!?" He said shockingly and a little shakily. He couldn't beleive what he was hearing. "This is insane! I've gone too far! I should have just ran when she started to talk to me! ugh!" He screamed inside his confused, troubled, scarred, and fragile, deprived mind. How could he go on with being a ThunderClan apprentice with this terrible secret. Even worse what if he got cought...Or even worse, What if Larkpaw got cought!? No...He didn't want to think about it. She said she would find a way, but...he wasn't so sure. His mind wirled as he waited for a responce from Larkpaw.

[*Goldy`!]

"I-I...I would. I love you and that's important to me. What is being a medicine cat? Just sorting herbs and learning rememdies. Sure, you have to interperet StarClan's messages but that's not that important to me, this is, what we have now." Her eyes almost bugged out of her head when she heard what she was saying. Was she nuts!?. She loved being a medicine cat, the herbs, the rememdies, the knowledge, the peacefulness, StarClan. She loved it...but she loved him too. She couldn't help herself from sighing sadly, despair thick in her throat. Her eyes met his, glinting with grief. She was now being torn apart inside.

[Swiftfire]

Raitopaw stared back at her gaze. He knew she was feeling the exact same way he was. Her emotions were controlling her...Just like him. Why did he have to go and fall in love!? None of this would have happened! "IT'S ALL MY FAULT!!!" He screamed loudly in his head. He tried to bite back from screaming, but shook his head instead. "Larkpaw...i know how you feel i do...but...i just cant help...but love you...so. much. It's killing me...I know it is for you too...But we both know...It's too late now...s...so we...we might as well just make the best of it!" He told her confidently. "Forget about everything...As long as we dont get cought we'll be fine...I love you." He told her as he blushed but smiled at the same time and rubbed his cheek against hers.

[*Goldy`!]

Larkpaw smiled at Raitopaw's words, he could read her well. As she looked at the cat she loved she couldn't but smile. She thought it was sweet that he was worrying, but unnecisary. "Raitopaw, I love you too." Was all she could say. She began to choke up and blushed red. Larkpaw nuzzled closer to him, closed her eyes, and breathed in deep. She was so relaxed here, with the cat she now loved, all the bad things being pushed away because she was so caught up in the moment. But somehwhere, deep in the back of her mind, there was a tiny voice screaming that soon it would all come crashing back down and she'd get in major trouble. And at the moment she half expected it to come crashing at that moment and ruin everything but it didn't and she was pretty grateful...sort of. She knew that this was bad, she knew that is was against the warrior code, but she just couldn't help it, couldn't do anything about it....She couln't control her emotions...

[Swiftfire]

Raitopaw blushed slightly at what she did but he smiled. He layed his head on top of her neck and closed his eyes, purring. He wasn't asleep but just relaxed. "I'll keep you...always, Larkpaw." He whispered in his mind as he drew in her sweet, sweet scent and warmth.

[*Goldy`!]

Larkpaw layed there with Raitopaw, watching the beautiful clouds. She was pretty happy just laying there but she wanted to know more about him, she was somewhat curious. "Erm..." She struggled to think of a topic. But she decided she should just simply say outright that she wanted to know him better. "I-I think we should, uh talk a little bit. You know, like get to know eachother? Um, how about we aske each other questions about each other or something?" She smiled up at him, batting her eyes.
