THE DEER DENS | 3:06 PM
We returned back to the dens to return the decorations to Mochas mother. It was quite boring but that flashback did entertain me for a bit. Maybe I shouldn't bring these stupid flowers. Just like my dad said, a real stag protects. A real stag doesn't pick out some stupid flowers!

I looked over at Mocha. Bambi even took flowers with him! I thought he wanted to be a real stag, just like me. Well, if that doesn't work out.. I'll just become the new Great Prince Of The Forest!

BAMBI'S POV :
I looked over at Ronno. He didn't seem to look so happy. Was it something one of us said? Well, hopefully it doesn't have to do with me!

Another odd thing I've noticed today is that Faline has been acting odd with me. She was being more nice to me.

I should ask Mocha for advice on why she's acting like that. Faline and her are always talking so maybe she might know why..

I went up to Mocha after she was finished talking fo her mom and when Faline was helping her mom with something in the den.

"Hey, Mocha. I need to ask you something. It has to do with Faline." I asked. She looked at me weirdly but allowed me to continue. "You see, she's been acting really nice with me now and I'm not sure why." I said.

Mocha's ears perked up. She must know! "Hm, that may mean that she either likes you or she just wants to be more nice to you. She hasn't told me anything about crushes."

"Ah, alright then. Thanks, Mocha!" I said. I walked away and went back to my dads den. It was pretty peaceful today, even after a wolf just a attacked us.

THE PRINCE'S DEN | 3:12 PM
I returned to my dads den. He was surprisingly in his den instead of hosting another one of his boring meetings that lasted for hours.

"Oh, hello, Bambi. How was flower picking?" He asked as he got up from his straw nest. "Oh, it was pretty fun." I smiled. "Why are you in your den?" I asked curiously. "I'm just a little tired from the trip. I'm surprised you aren't resting. Why is that?" He looked at me.

"I don't know but I guess I have a little motivation." I turned to him and turned back to the sky that was filled with clouds. "Why don't you go back with your friends and see what their planning on doing next?" He said. I nodded my head and walked out the den.

I took the same path again and arrived at Mochas den quickly this time. She was talking with Ronno and Faline outside the den. She spotted me and soon came up to me. "Oh, Bambi! Glad your here. We were actually about to go fruit picking." She excitedly said.

My ears perked up in excitement. "Oo, fruit picking? Sounds fun!" I was pretty hungry so this was the perfect activity to do.

MOCHA'S POV :
We arrived at a beautiful grassy area filled with bushes filled with strawberries.

"Wow, all this is making me hungry!" Bambi said. He quickly took a few full grown strawberries from a bush infront of him and devoured them.

Thumper rushed over to us and looked at all the bushes filled with strawberries in shock. "Woah! So many yummy strawberries!" He said as he hopped his way over to get some strawberries.

We picked strawberries for a few minutes. We didn't get much but it was still fun.

After we all picked some strawberries, we sat under a willow tree to eat them. "Do you guys wanna go find a waterfall tomorrow?" I asked. "Sounds fun, sure!" Faline said. She turned to Bambi and Ronno who also agreed to go but didn't say anything because their mouths were full of strawberries, which made us laugh!

"You both look like you got stung by bumblebees in the cheeks!" I giggled. Thumper and Faline laughed along with me as well.

RONNO'S POV :
"Hey, That isn't funny!" I spit the strawberry in my mouth and nudged Mocha but for fun.

"Sorry, Mr.Grumpy!" Mocha giggled a bit. Mocha got up. "Well, let's all head home now. The sun will go down in a few." We all then headed back to where Mocha's den was located.

While we were all heading back, Flower came along after popping out the bushes. He had a little red on his face which made us all laugh.

"Stop laughing!" Flower said, embarrassed by our laughing. He then put his tail infront of his face.

"Alright, we will all stop laughing! Let's continue walking." Faline said. Thumper climbed onto Bambi's back. "Hmm, I can see some bugs in these trees! Ew.." Thumper said, backing his face away from the trees.

"I thought you rabbits liked bugs." I said. Thumper looked at me, angry. "I don't!" Yelled Thumper.

"Geez, don't get so angry at me, cottontail." I said. This made Thumper a little mad but I think it brushed it off afterwards.

We finally made it to the dens but I needed to ask Bambi something real quick before I left to my den.

"Psst... Bambi! Come here." I whispered. Bambi quickly turned his head to my direction and walked over to me. "What's up?" He asked. I took a deep breath. "When should I tell Mocha that I have feelings for her.. you did say I needed to tell her at some point!" I asked.

"Well, tomorrow might be perfect. You both have already been getting along really great so why not tomorrow?" This made me overthink way too much about this whole situation.

"What if she doesn't like me back?!" I panicked. I took another deep breathe. "Oh, c'mon. I can tell she likes you back too. You both have a really great bond."

I did kind of agree with Bambi with that saying but still.. what if she doesn't like me back? That will be so embarrassing! Then, everyone will probably make fun of me but..

"Fine, I'll tell her the truth.. tomorrow." I sighed. "Awesome. Now don't panic, I know you'll be fine." He said and walked away. I looked back at Mocha and went over to her.

"Hey, Mocha. Today was a pretty fun day. I'll see you tomorrow! Bye." I smiled. She smiled back and I walked over to my den which was a little farther away from her den but oh well.

"Ronno! I was so worried about you. Where have you been?" My mom asked. "Oh, exploring with my friends! I'm pretty worn out from today.. Imma get some rest now." I yawned as I walked past my mom. I curled up in my moss bedding and quickly fell asleep. Tomorrow, Ronno... is your big day.
