The warm sun beat down on Fallingbirch as he padded into camp with a mouse hanging from his jaws, his striking emerald eyes gazing around camp before he spotted her. Honeynose was crouched beside the small stream that ran into camp while her kits played under the watchful eye of Mapleflower, their deputy who was currently off duty since she was nursing kits. Fallingbirch felt his tail curl over his back happily as he trotted towards the cream coloured molly, a smile evident on his face behind the small body of the mouse. When he reached her side, Honeynose looked up a bit to see the tom standing beside her, and she broke her lapping motions to smile up at him "Hello, Fallingbirch! Good hunting, I hope?" She asked in a sweet tone as he dropped the mouse off beside her. Fallingbirch nodded "Yes, I actually... I actually caught this for you. Oh! And the kits, of course!" He quickly added, feeling his face heat up underneath his fur, and it wasn't from the warm sun. Honeynose laughed at him, smiling brightly as she sat up a bit straighter, getting to her paws "Thank you, Fallingbirch. I'm sure the kits will love it." She said, and that's when they heard a squeal.
"FALLINGBIRCH, FALLINGBIRCH!" Jackdawkit screeched, tearing towards the older tom with quick paws. The tom was almost as big as any average apprentice now, and soon would be leaving the nursery to become an apprentice. Fallingbirch smirked slightly at the kit, lifting a paw and patting Jackdawkit on the head "Hey there, squirt. Not causing your mama grief, I hope?" He heard Honeynose chuckle beside him, and Jackdawkit shook his head quickly "Nope! I've been real helpful" The kit said in an excited tone. Fallingbirch raised an eyebrow, and Jackdawkit proceeded to show Fallingbirch just how helpful he had been when it came to keeping the nursery clean. Poppykit and Creamkit followed their brother, showing Fallingbirch their feather and stone collections. The tom felt extremely happy; the happiest he had felt in a long time. Fallingbirch wasn't the... most cheerful tom, he was in fact one of the most introverted and silent in the clan, but around Honeynose and her kits.... He felt like he belonged.
When the kits finally scampered off, Fallingbirch had made up his mind. He truly felt something in his heart, and the one cat who made him feel like that happened to be the one who asked him how he was when she first joined the clan. She had lost her mate, her home, her everything, and she was asking how he felt. Honeynose and him had been friends for well over ten moons, and he honestly loved her more than he could say. When Fallingbirch called Honeynose over and asked if she wanted to go on a walk, she instantly agreed, nodding happily. When they got into the forest, he stopped her near a small little brook, and they sat down. "Honeynose.. I... I just wanted to tell you.. Thank you. For everything. You just... make me so happy and I don't know how to express how much I-" He was cut off when Honeynose suddenly pressed her nose against his, nuzzling him happily "I love you too, Fallingbirch." This was officially the happiest moment of his life. He smiled bright, and nuzzled her back, purring happily.

Leopardeyes huffed as she laid on the hot, grassy ground of the camp, watching as Gullrunner and Mapleflower made doe eyes at each other, and Fallingbirch and Honeynose return to camp with twined tails. She groaned half-heartedly at all the lovey-dovey stuff, resting her head on her paws. She heard footsteps beside her, and glanced sideways. It was her old apprentice, Fawnleap. The young molly smirked down at her mentor, sitting down beside the speckled molly and snorting in amusement "I wouldn't think of you as the jealous type, Leopardeyes." Fawnleap said, and Leopardeyes rolled her eyes "I am not jealous. Just... I wanna have something like what Gullrunner and Mapleflower have, or even what Fallingbirch and Fawnleap have." Leopardeyes sighed. Fawnleap frowned at her mentors obviously crest-fallen features, and suddenly decided on something. She was going to make it her duty to pair her mentor with the perfect tom.
Fawnleap prowled around the edges of camp, watching the toms carefully. She had narrowed it down to two toms, Wolfstep and Acornfur. She watched Wolfstep talk heatedly with the brand new warrior, Lilacpounce, and raised her brow. Wolfstep had always seemed like a cold-hearted, aggressive tom, and he obviously had a strong opinion. Fawnleap knew he didn't get along well with some of the more light-hearted warriors, and decided that he probably wouldn't go well with her happy-go-lucky mentor. Plus, Lilacpounce seemed pretty absorbed in his pretty eyes. Fawnleap then looked towards Acornfur, who was chatting with Bearstar and Gullrunner, a laid-back smile on his face. Acornfur seemed more to Leopardeye's pace, but... He was pretty well lazy. She watched him yawn wide, and blink his pricing green eyes in a tired manner. Oh well, that's a loveable trait, Fawnleap guessed. It looked like Acornfur was the winner. It also was a bonus that Acornfur and Leopardeyes were already pretty good friends. Fawnleap smirked evilly, and slouched over to Robinpaw, who was playing with Creamkit, Poppykit, Flamekit and Jackdawkit. Batkit was helping Heronstream lug around travelling herbs.
"Hey, Robinpaw!" Fawnleap said desperately, sliding towards her friend and the kittens. Robinpaw looked up in a confused manner, the kits pinning her down and screeching how they had defeated the evil fox "Oh- hey, Fawnleap!" Robinpaw said, and shook the kits off her with - admittedly - some trouble. Robinpaw watched her friend skeptically, and that's when Fawnleap explained her idea to the apprentice. The kits had butted in, and when Robinpaw agreed to helping out Fawnleap, the kits decided they wanted to help as-well. When Fawnleap had told all of them her plan, they all jumped into action. Fawnleap and the kits ran over to Acornfur, and told him to follow them out into the forest. Robinpaw asked Leopardeyes to go hunting her her, and the warrior agreed, following the young molly out into the Sycamore filled forest.
"Seriously now, Robinpaw. What are we doing?" Leopardeyes sighed as the apprentice dragged her all around the forest, claiming she knew where the best mice hunting spots were "We are - ah - looking for shrews!" Robinpaw said in a hurried voice. Leopardeyes raised a kitty eyebrow "I thought we were hunting mice?" She said skeptically, and Robinpaw squeaked in embarrassment "Oh, right! Mice! ahahah..." Robinpaw groaned slightly, and that's when Fawnleap came through the brush "Oh! Robinpaw, Leopardeyes! Just the cats I was looking for! Here, follow me!" Fawnleap said, and the two cats followed her through the brush. Now Leopardeyes was extremely confused. What in the name of Starclan is going on here?! That's when they pushed through a patch of ferns, and Leopardeyes sparkling blue eyes widened. They were in a little clearing, fireflies flickering everywhere... and Acornfur was sitting there in the middle in a patch of lilies, looking drowsy and confused. When he saw Leopardeyes, he seemed to relax a bit "Oh, Leopardeyes. Why are you here?" He asked.
"What do you mean? Fawnleap and Robinpaw-" She looked around, not seeing the two trouble-making mollys anywhere. That's when it clicked. They had set this up. Leopardeyes sighed harshly, and she padded towards Acornfur. He scooted over a bit, and she sat down beside him. He glanced towards her, and Leopardeyes looked back towards him, before breaking into laughter "Do you think?" He asked, and Leopardeyes nodded "Yep. I think Fawnleap and Robinpaw set us up." Leopardeyes said, rolling her blue eyes. Acornfur chuckled in a tired manner "The kits were in on it too. They are hiding in that clump of ferns." He said, pointing with his tail to a quivering patch of ferns. Leopardeyes snorted, shaking her head happily, a small smile on her face. It was silent for a few moments, but it was a comfortable silence. "Hey, Leopardeyes?" Acornfur asked "Hmm?" The female asked, looking towards the usually sleepy tom "Since we are here now... Wanna go swimming?" He asked, gesturing with his tail towards the water. Leopardeyes was slightly taken aback, but smiled and nodded "I'd love too, Acornfur."
The two warriors padded into camp some time later, laughing happily, their pelts still slightly damp with water as they went back to the warriors den, not before grabbing something to eat and sharing. When they finished their share of the fresh kill, they both turned in to go to sleep, unaware of the six of curious cats watching them. Fawnleap smirked "That was so successful. I'm a genius" Robinpaw laughed "Hey, we helped too!" Creamkit squealed, and the other kits nodded "Yeah!" the other chorused, and Fawnleap laughed "Your right, we all did it! It was so great!" all the young cats chattered, before the kits scampered off to the nursery to sleep. Robinpaw turned in herself, and Fawnleap too went to the warriors den for some sleep. When she entered the den, she saw Acornfur and Leopardeyes sleeping beside each other in the moss beds, paws touching slightly as they snoozed. Fawnleap felt happiness wash over her for her mentor, and settled down happily, a smile upon her face as she dozed off.
