Flamefur sat ruefully by the edge of the island where Gatherings were held. Did Hawkstar really accept him as her mate? She had told him no one could replace Wildpath adn that they had been given the same warrior names because of their friendship. Maybe Midnightstar and him could have that relationship... but she was a clan leader, and she had already said that StarClan rarely excepted kits from female leaders. But Flamefur knew that if Hawkstar could bring Wildpath back and be his mate again, she would. Was the bright orange tom just a replacement? His tail wooshed lightly in the cool breeze and the icy water blew at his paws. "Maybe I should join ThunderClan," he muttered. His blind eyes gazed over the open sheet of black water against the Newleaf moonhigh. He turned towards the edge of the island that faced ThunderClan camp. A hunting patrol was wandering around the boundaries (he scented them and their prey) and he imagined himself in that patrol, side by side with Midnightstar. "I don't know!" he yowled blankly and randomly. Rising to his paws, he begged to himself. "Firestar, what would you do?" Flamefur's head drooped and he turned back to the gathering cats and sighed. Would he ever be accepted?

Midnightstar lifted her muzzle to taste the air. Recognizing the scent, she pushed on through the brush. Graceful and silent, Midnightstar padded to the edge of the island as the full white, glowing moon shone brightly in the star-studded wonderous sky. As she noticed the flame coloured tom, she halted, heart pounding. He already has a mate! He'll never accept you! A voice seemed to repeat over in her head. Forcing herself forward she sat beside the handsome tom. Laying her tail gently across his flank, she meowed affectionatly, "I-I know that you already have a mate, but..." Turning her voice to a longing whisper, Midnightstar mewed, "Flamefur..., Flamefur, I love you. I always have, even when we were apprentices. When you left I was devastated, but until now, I'd never had the courage to tell you. You mean more to me than any cat in all the clans. It would mean so much to me if you felt the same but... I, I could understand if you still love Hawkstar." Heart pulsing, she waited for his answer, fearful that he wouldn't feel the same.

"I love you, too, Midnightstar. I accept you as my mate. Hawkstar never loved me anyways." He turned blindly to her and nuzzle her. "iF you accept me, I accept you. We were once best friends and will now be best friends forevermore." He purred warmly into her ear. "I am now a thunderclan cat." He suddenly shook wildly. "I don't know!" he yowled. "Why can't it be both of you?"
