Fireheart purred and nuzzled her knowing that the other tom had liked her but she had chosen him filled him with a new emotion. Pride? Arrogance? Pure elation? Whatever it was, he liked it. In the backof his mind he knew the other tom could be a threat but he wasn't so much worried about a physical fight as he was about them being exiled or condemed by their clans.
"Yes, tomorrow we will meet at the gathering, and I think perhaps twice a week for about a moon should throw off the suspicions and then we'll be able to meet more frequently, will you be alright?" he asked, his voice rich and deep, his passion, love and worry burned in his eyes and wound through his words as he spoke to her.
He felt uneasy now, as if there was something, or somecat watching them, he couldn't place the source and knew he was probably just being paranoid but still... that feeling sent chills up his spine. "Fernpelt..." he murmured quietly into her ear "I think we should go now, I'll wait till you're gone before I leave but move swiftly back to camp and go straight to your nest, I have an odd feeling that we're not alone."

"Yes, I agree twice a week." She listened intently to all he said. She ran over to the river and plunged to the other side. But, as she stepped onto her side she was tackled by a fox. She hissed and aimed for its ears.

Fireheart nuzzled her once more before she plunged into the river heading for home. Just as she got out of the water he saw a flash of orangish fur heading towards her. His mind worked fast and he was swimming through the river almost as good as any true RiverClan cat within a moment. Once he was on the other side he pounced onto the back of the fox, digging in his claws to stay on he bit it's ears and neck, raking his hind legs down it's back with his claws out. Darn the wind! It had been blowing the fox scent away from them.
Just as he thought he was about to lose his grip and the fox would get a better hold on Fernpelt the fox turned and tried to deal with him giving her time to get up. "Fernpelt get out of here! Get back to camp!" He called as he was finally flung to the side and he darted back in, clawing the fox's stomach as he dashed around it clawing at it's legs and face in a desperate attempt to distract it from Fernpelt.

"No." Fernpelt mewed fiercley. "I won't leave you." She head butted the fox in its side and dodged one of its blows but was hit by the one following it. She sliced her claws down the fox's back. And in an instant she was thrown off. She continued on the attack fighting side-by-side with Fireheart.

Fireheart hissed both at the fox and at the stubborness of Fernpelt. Didn't she realize that she was putting both of them in more danger? As the fox hit her he lunged at it's face, claws out and began ripping at it's eyes.
Loud yelps followed and the fox snapped blindly, catching one of his paws in it's teeth and throwing him to the side. A yowl of pain came from Fireheart before he could stop it. He lay winded for a few moments before getting up and limping back to the fight. He couldn't leave Fernpelt to fight the fox by herself.

Fernpelt was on the foxe's back now she saw her chance and aimed from the fox's neck. For a split second everything was a blur to her, thenin a hearbeat the fox's struggles ceased and it went limp underneath her. She looked up at Fireheart, "I told you I wouldn't leave you." She stumbled a bit then got back up to her paws and limped over to Fireheart.

He stared at her in disbelief, now that his worry was over he felt anger rising. "Do you realize how much more danger you put us in? You could've run and once you were safe I would've been fine!" He wasn't sure if he was angry with her or himself but he knew he was angry. "You need to go see your medicine cat." he mumbled as he stared at her.

There was sorrow in Fernpelt's eyes but they were instantly replaced with anger. "I didn't leave because I wanted to make sure you were safe!" She spat at him with all her anger in those words. Before she could see his reaction she spun around and stalked back in the direction of her camp.
She had been walking for a while now and it seemed to her that she was still quite some ways from camp. "It must be my injuries." She muttered to herself. So the rest of her way to camp she sped up her pace.

Fireheart hissed at her for the first time since he'd met her. As she turned he turned as well and headed back across the river towards his camp, determined not to show any weakness. "Make sure I was safe? Doesn't she think I can take care of myself?" He snarled as he made his way through the forest. Soon he was at the ravine and he made his way down through the gorse tunnel and headed through the fern tunnel to the medicine cat den.

Fernpelt had arrived at camp a while ago and the medicine cat had treated her wounds. She was now in the warriors den trying to sleep, she felt bad about what happened with Fireheart she had never meant to do what she did. She was just so scared Fireheart would get hurt. She let out a small sigh and let sleep overehlm her.
In her dreams she saw Fireheart and the first time she met him. She finally woke up at dawn and found out that she was going to the Gathering.

Fireheart awoke in the morning to sun filtering through the fern fronds that hung over his nest outside the medicine cat den. He had been told his foot was pretty bad and that he needed to stay for observation. He smelled various herbs and saw a large clump of cobwebs wrapped around it. He rose slowly, putting weight onto his paw. He winced slightly but found it didn't hurt nearly as much as the night before. Within moments the medicine cat was checking over his wounds and said he'd be fine to go to the gathering.
Suddenly, for the first time, he wasn't sure he wanted to go. What if Fernpelt ignored him? Or ridiculed him in front of all the clans? He shook his head, he wouldn't do that, he couldn't believe that now that they'd had time to calm down that she wouldn't want to be with him... he couldn't believe it, he wouldn't. He went about things in camp as normal and when it was time he headed with the rest of the chosen cats to Four Trees for the meeting.

It was time, and Fernpelt knew it. She followed the rest of her clan to the Gathering. When she got there she sat down and awaited Fireheart's arrival. She hoped he wouldn't still be mad.

When ThunderClan reached the gathering Fireheart spied Fernpelt almost immediately but he didn't go to her. He sat off to the side talking to some ShadowClan cats. He didn't want to walk up to her and act like everything was fine if it wasn't with her and so he sat, glancing at her every chance he got trying to figure out if she was still mad.

Fernpelt noticed Fireheart's arrival and realized that he was not coming in her direction. She sighed and walked someways until she sitting in a crowd of RiverClan warriors she gave him a sorrowful glance then sat down.

Fireheart caught the look Fernpelt gave him and rose, excusing himself from the group of ShadowClan warriors he padded over and stopped nonchalantly a little ways away from the RiverClan group. If she wanted to talk to him, this was her chance.
