Wαяяισяѕ: Tнє Nєω Bєgιηηιηg discussion

Tigerlily padded towards ThunderClan border as she decided to hunt for land dwelling prey inside of her typical choice of hunting. She tasted the air, but deserted her attempts to hunt as she saw how beautiful it was out.

Sparrow pelt was scouting a solo patrol of the edge of the TC territory, when he smelt the scent of another cat.

Tigerlily wasn't paying attention to where she was going and accidentally crossed the border.

The scent of the cat grew stronger as he progressed along the border. It was a fishy smell "riverclan" he whispered to himself. He was tired after battle traing with the pore noticed, and decided to approach the cat and give her a warning. "Excuse me" he said, the cats body tired away from sparrowpelt

((Soz, really bad spelling. Autocorrect))

Tigerlily whipped around startled and realized what side of the border she was on. Her eyes widening she looked beyond embarrassed. "Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking." She meowed meekly hoping he wouldn't attack her.

"Be more careful ne...." His voice trailed off, looking at the pretty she cat.

Tigerlily nodded and visibly relaxed when she was certain he wouldn't harm her. She smiled at him slightly. "Thanks and I will be." She promised.

He just sat there, looking at the she cat.
((I will be ghosting, btw))

"Are you ok?" Tigerlily asked tilting her head to the side slightly. She knew she should get back to her own territory, but couldn't help herself.

((Mkay I might actually be getting off soon so it's totally understandable))

"Yeah" he said. He didn't know how to say it "it's just... Just... You're..."

Tigerlily looked even more confused. "I'm what?" She asked him intrigued at what he would say.

"It's just you're beautiful."

Tigerlily's eyes widened slightly and she felt her ears grow warm. "Oh um...i....why thank you." She mewed embarrassedly. She knew she was blushing as she gazed at her paws. She licked her chest in embarrassment and shuffled her paws slightly.

Sparrowpelt didn't know what to say. He was kinda waiting for more of a response from her. Something to see if she felt the same way. The thing that boggled his mind was that this was against the warrior code, but love, it was just so strong.

Tigerlily looked up at the tom and got lost in his eyes. She couldn't tear her gaze away from him. She took a gulp and all her thoughts were jumbled inside.

He smiled, a joyous smile, a happy smile, a 'I love you' type of smile.

Tigerlily shook her head and tried to make sense of everything. She smiled back at him, but it wasn't as affectionate more like being friendly.

Sparrowpelt felt sadness wash over him. He could see the look in her eyes. He had a different feel for her. His tail drooped. "Anyway, you best be off. You don't want to get in trouble. I won't tell anyone." He said, turning and making his way towards camp.

"Thank you." Tigerlily purred happily and smiled at him again. "I'm Tigerlily by the way." She told him.

Sparrowpelt nodded, sadness filling his eyes, before slowly walking towards the forest.

((Sorry, gtg, but we will continue!))

Disappointment filled her as she padded back to her own territory. She really wished that they could've talked for longer, but figured he didn't want to.

Tigerlily hesitated and turned back so she could face the tom again. "I never got a name." She meowed to him hoping he would answer.

Sparrowpelt looked back. He meowed gruffly, "sparrowpelt. I'm sparrowpelt" before turning again

"It was nice to meet you, Sparrowpelt." Tigerlily meowed gently and smiled at him. She sighed as he turned back around. "Bee rain." She muttered before turning to leave though she moved slowly and it seemed without much purpose.

Sparrowpelt stopped. He wasn't just going to turn down the biggest moment like that. "Wait!" He called back

Tigerlily stopped almost immediately and gazed back at him with hope in her eyes. "Yes?" She asked, she felt giddy inside and it was hard for her to contain.

"Please" he begged "just at least tell me, how you feel." His eyes were full of longing

"Feel about what?" Tigerlily asked tilting her head to the side slightly. She was feeling pretty clueless at the moment and wasn't sure what he meant exactly.

"How you feel" he didn't know how to approach it. He was thinking that he would be making a big mistake. Going against he code, he said "How you feel about me..."

Tigerlily paused and gazed at him for a moment and knew she was going against the code by saying this, but she responded. "I feel happy, and I know this may sound crazy, but you're different from any tom I've ever met." She paused again and thought of how to word the next part. "Sparrowpelt I think I like you." She told him hesitantly. She knew that she didn't just break the code but broke it and then shredded to pieces.

He stood in shock, feeling the same feel as her, the warrior code... He didn't know what to do, but all he did, was nuzzle her pelt, purring at the same time. "It's okay"

Tigerlily stood slightly ridged for a moment when he first nuzzled into her. She then relaxed and purred as well. She pressed against him and buried herself into his chest. "You sure?" She asked softly. "I mean we are breaking the warrior code and well every tradition..." She trailed off, entranced by his scent.

"Don't wo..." His voice stopped there. "Thunderclan patrol" sparrowpelt looked into her eyes, wishing they could be in the moment longer. "Don't worry, meet me here in 2 nights time" he said before running off. She was sad, and hope she took his word. He turned to look back at her. "I'll be thinking of you, tigerlily" before running into the bush, brown pelt disappearing

((Sorry got to go!))

Tigerlily nodded and scented the patrol as well. She took his words to heart as she watched him disappear. "I'll be thinking of you as well Sparrowpelt." She purred before she too disappeared from sight. She quickly went back to her own territory. She then headed back to camp with a smile on her face. She stopped halfway though and realized she had ThunderClan scent all over her. She saw a stream and rolled in it, with her pelt drenched she then headed back to camp again.

((Ok by))

Sparrowpelt eagerly waited at the edge of the territory, nervous and exited, he waited. His mind was saying to go back to camp, but his heart stopped him from doing so. He looked up at the moonlight, scared of all the starclan cats watching him at this moment, but he didn't hesitate. He just sat there and waited.

Tigerlily poked her head out into the open and gazed around cautiously. She stepped into the moonlight her pelt shimmer as it hit her. She smiled when she saw Sparrowpelt. "Hi." She murmured.

Sparrowpelt turned around to see tigerlily, emerge from the bushes. "Hi" he said, shyly. She was here, and all the toughs about starclan seemed to disappear

"So am I late?" Tigerlily asked nervously. She padded closer to him and shuffled her paws slightly.

He tilted his head to the side. "No not at all!" He happily paddled up to her, and put his nose in her fur. "You're here, and that all that matters."

Tigerlily purred softly and his touch sent a shiver through her body. She was still unaccustomed to his touch, but still welcomed it. "I'm glad." She replied and nuzzled him in response.

Sparrowpelt was happy. He backed away. "You know I was thinking of you, the whole two days I didn't see you?" He said, with a smile on his face

"You were?" Tigerlily asked smiling. "So was I." She admitted. She smiled at her paws, she felt her stomach began to flutter slightly and shuffled her paws again.

"I was training with the apprentices" he started. "Dreaming of you, when one caught me doing so, and thought it would be funny if they did a cat fur pile, on top of me!" He said, ruffling his fur. "I've gotta be careful next time!" He purred

Tigerlily couldn't help, but giggle at what he said. "Yes now that would be the smart thing to do." She meowed with humor in her eyes.

"Wanna race?" He said. "Just around the twoleg area, not territory?" His eyes were full of shine, from the moonlight, as his gray pelt shimmered

Tigerlily's eyes brightened and she flicked her tail. "You're on. See you once I get there." She purred and then bolted towards the twoleg place.

Sparrowpelt shook his head, this was a battle that he was going to win! He chased after her, gaining ground and travelling closely behind.

Tigerlily felt his breath on her tail and sped up. "Almost there." She murmured to herself and tried to go faster.
