Enjoy!

Heart beats fast...

Hollyleaf watched Fallen Leaves as he stared at the river.

Colors and promises...
How to be brave?

Hollyleaf stared at the top of the cave as if it would give her something to think about.

How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?

Hollyleaf turned her gaze back down to the ground.

But watching you stand alone...
All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow...

She turned her gaze again, this time to Fallen Leaves.

One step closer...

She wanted to pad forward to him, but her feelings held her back. Instead of placing a paw forward, it went backwards, away from the tom.

I have died every day waiting for you.
Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years—I'll love you for a thousand more...

Instead of placing a paw forward, it went backwards, away from the tom.

Just then, Fallen Leaves turned behind, just to see Hollyleaf's tail disappear into the system of caves.

Time stands still. Beauty in all she is...
I will be brave.

Slowly, he followed her into the caves.

I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me.

Fallen Leaves frowned at the thought that Hollyleaf may someday leave him.

Every breath...
Every hour has come to this.

He stopped, hesitant to follow her to her nest.

One step closer...

Making up his mind, he went forward.

And I have died every day waiting for you.

He quickened his pace, determined to not lose her.

Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years—I'll love you for a thousand more...

As Hollyleaf settled into her nest, she noticed that Fallen Leaves was behind her.

And all along, I believed I would find you.

She smiled at the sight of him, darting forward to rub her head under his neck.

Time has brought your heart to me... I have loved you for a thousand years.

She moved back, staring at Fallen Leaves's green eyes while he returned her stare with a smile.

I'll love you for a thousand more...

The End.
