Darkstar's love ☆Complete☆

Chapter 20

Darkstorm padded across the smooth stone surrounding the camp and look around in case some cat saw him. He soon began to pick up his pace when he was a few mouse lengths away from the camp.

Darkstorm sniffed for the sweet scent of the ThunderClan warrior hoping she came. Darkstorm eventually smelled the scent of the flowers and followed it.

He spotted the large oak and in the center of the flowers was Tigerlilly her silver fur glowing like a star. Not wanting to ruin the view Darkstorm lowered himself to the ground.

Tigerlilly nosed the flowers as she carefully stepped around them trying not to step on any. Darkstorm walked closer to her but he didn't notice the twig beneath him.

Darkstorm froze as he saw Tigerlilly's ears flick up. Her fur bristled up as she walked towards Darkstorm's hiding place. Worried Darkstorm walked backwards.

Immediately Darkstorm was tackled and on top of him was the silver she cat Tigerlilly. Her blue eyes began to fill with surprise and regret at her fur began to lay flat.

When Darkstorm felt her move away he got up and looked at her. He Immediately got up and nuzzled her happy he got to spend time with her.

She left him and began to pad towards the oak with her tail held high. Mesmerized by her Darkstorm padded after her. Tigerlilly began to settle into the flowers her blue eyes glowing like the moon.

Quickly Darkstorm settled beside her and nuzzled her. Taking in her scent of honey. "We're risking so much doing this." Hearing Tigerlilly's mew Darkstorm shrugged.

"So? I'll go against everyone just for you." Darkstorm felt Tigerlilly purr as she nuzzled closer. "I guess, but what about starclan? We are breaking the code they set for us."

Darkstorm snorted with amusement. "I'll go to war with starclan myself they won't stop me Tigerlilly I love you to much." Tigerlilly let out a heavy sight and rested her head on her paws.

"You really are special Darkstorm. I should've known that the day I first met you." Darkstorm chuckled with amusement as he remembered when he caught her as an apprentice.

"You mean the day I caught you taking ShadowClan prey?" Darkstorm felt Tigerlilly playfully shove him away as she rolled her eyes.

"Well I found it so technically it was mine." Scooting back to his place Darkstorm felt his heart flutter. "Well it was ShadowClan prey and I could just tell the leader's about it."

Before he had time to react in a swift move Tigerlilly had Darkstorm pinned. "But we both know you wouldn't do that." Darkstorm knew he could never do that to Tigerlilly especially if it meant he would never get to see her again.

"Oh well you caught me but who said it would stop me?" Darkstorm immediately flipped Tigerlilly and playfully bit her scruff.

Tigerlilly let out a playful squeal as she tried to shove him off. "Do you give up?" Darkstorm hoped she heard him through a mouthful of fur.

"Yes! Just get off me you stupid furball." Darkstorm got off and his ears heated up. "It's late let's make a nest." Darkstorm nodded and began to gather moss from the oak.

When he had enough moss he began to shape a nest big enough for them both. As Darkstorm began to settle Tigerlilly walked towards him with flowers.

"It's plain I figured it could use some decorations." Darkstorm watched closely as she placed the flowers in a neat order. Once she placed the last flower she settled down beside him.

Tigerlilly placed her head on her paws and began to drift into sleep. Darkstorm admired her taking in her beauty before letting sleep overtake him.

Hearing the chirp of the birds Darkstorm got up and stretched. He then softly nudged Tigerlilly as she grumbled. "It's time to wake up."

Tigerlilly eventually got up and stretched as well. "Well I suppose we say goodbye now." Darkstorm felt upset that they had to return but understood that they had to if they wanted to keep meeting.

Tigerlilly nodded as she padded away shooting Darkstorm one more loving glance before leaving. Darkstorm began to return to the camp but stopped once he smelled the she cats scent on him.

Looking around then spotted a nice patch of wild garlic. Darkstorm rolled in the garlic until he was sure he completely covered her scent.

Once he finished he began to silently pad through the tunnel. He heard the familiar snore of Appleshade signaling the three new warriors fell asleep.

Darkstorm walked by the new warriors guarding the entrance careful to not accidentally bumb into them. Once he was away from them he began to slip into the warriors den.

Careful to not step on anyone he gently layed in his nest exhausted. Darkstorm felt a stab in his ribs and woke up to see Firefoot.

"Your on dawn patrol let's go." Exhausted still Darkstorm had no choice but to get up and pretend nothing happened. He quickly padded towards the entrance where Chippedclaw and Poppywing stood.

Once he got there Chippedclaw nodded and began to lead them. Looking around Darkstorm's paws felt like stones as he walked. Chippedclaw noticed.

"You all right Darkstorm? Your much more clumsy today." Darkstorm looked at Chippedclaw and nodded. "I'm all right I'm just tired."

Chippedclaw chuckled and continued walking. "It's the same with Mousecoal she's clumsy." Poppywing looked at him with shock. "Wait Mousecoal didn't tell anyone?"

Chippedclaw looked at Poppywing with confusion as she spoke. "Mousecoal is secretive she wouldn't speak to just anyone." Poppywing sighed as her eyes sparkled with joy.

"Mousecoal is expecting kits." Darkstorm froze but starting walking again. His old mentor is expecting kits? Firefoot spoke with excitement. "That's amazing news Hazelflower's kits are appointed to be apprenticed today but now we have new kits on the way."

Darkstorm looked at Firefoot. "that is exciting but I figured you and Appleshade are gonna want to have kits in a couple of moons."

Firefoot looked away in embarrassment but Chippedclaw looked at Darkstorm with curiosity. "What about you Darkstorm? I figured you were padding after a she cat."
