The flame colored tom had managed to sneak away. With no more apprentice to train her certainly had a lot of free time on his paws. Today he pranced through the fields, there was still some patches of snow, but most of it had melted away and turned into thick patches of deep mud. As he walked, his eyes focused on one destination the best sunning rock in MothClan’s territory. With a flick of his tail he pushed onward a loud squelching sound echoed in the air as he trudged through the mud. His paws, and legs now covered in brown he reached his destination. Sticking his tongue out to focus, he wriggled his tail and took a leap. Turning around, he could see much of MothClan’s training grounds seeing warriors running around with their apprentices, with a twitch of his whiskers his eyes tinted with amusement. He missed running around teaching them right from wrong, he almost wondered how Darkstorm would fair training his own apprentice. The way he was trained was rough, did he have the same seriousness as their deputy.
As the sun rose higher into the sky, the tom could feel the mud drying and caking to his fur, with a snort of distaste, and after failing to get it off with a few strong shakes he admitted defeat before laying down, eyes closed and at a mild peace. The humming of beetles, and chirps of birds lulled the tom into a tranquil state until a familiar scent hit his nose. His eyes fluttered open and he lowered and stretched his body out to become barely visible. With a playful look he scanned the fields waiting, he could certainly catch his best friend by surprise this time. Best….friend…? He flicked his ears and sighed softly they had been friends ever since they were kits always tussling to see who was better, sometimes he would win, sometimes she would. He used to say that he let her win, to keep his pride of course even though she really had been better that day.
It didn’t take long for the patrol to come into view, he was no longer hiding himself, instead sat up straight flexing his broad shoulders before giving his chest a quick lick, he had to look presentable, that was until he looked down at his paws realizing they were covered in dirt. He flattened his ears against his head, perhaps she wouldn’t notice…. As she came into view his jaw dropped slowly and he shifted uneasily when did she become so…so…. Attractive? Beautiful? He didn’t have words. ”Hey!! Hey cherryhawk how are mice running?” Really? How are the mice running that’s all he could come up with? He cursed under his breath before flicking his tail. ”Best sunning spot in MothClan up here you know if you are done that is…” He mewed awkwardly.
