Is It Real? [Batwing]

[Deleted]

Batwing smiled warmly at the cream and brown she-cat. She seemed lost in thought. Thinking about kits, maybe? He couldn't help but feel happy for her. She was... interesting...

The black tom rested his head on hers, closing his eyes. "I do, too, Lostsong. I do too..." He paused for a minute after Lostsong continued. It sounded as though she were bent on this, that she'd do anything to have kits... "I don't mind at all," he whispered in her ear.

[hi]

Good. The beauty whispered, her voice no more than a soft purr. She never wanted to leave this spot. This feeling of being pressed against the tom she loved, his head ontop of hers, his heard beating next to hers, his body sharing it's warmth with her... she loved it. She couldn't get enough of it. She never wanted to leave.

So how many kits do you want to have? the she-cat asked. As she asked, she lay down. She hoped that Batwing followed her. She was starting to get slightly sleepy.

After Lostsong finished speaking, a silence hung in the air. No, not an eerie one that's usually there, but a peaceful one. It was as if that nothing could ruin this moment, even if the forest was crumbling around them, they wouldn't be fazed. Just two cats, laying quietly beneath the clear, leaf-fall sky in peaceful bliss...

As the pretty she-cat spoke up again, it seemed as though she had raised her voice to that of a yell. Through the whispers, and the silence...

"More then the stars in the sky," Batwing said, a purr rumbling in his throat as he laid down beside her. "It doesn't matter to me. Even if it's just one, I'll be the happiest father in clan history..."

He scanned her over. She looked somewhat... tired. "Are you getting sleepy? Do you want to go back to camp?"

[hi]

As her mate spoke, Lostsong's whole body started to rumble in a content, elated purr. He was so wonderful. She didn't know how she could have found anyone better. She enjoyed his body being pressed aginst her as they lay there, together. His words just... just... she didn't even know. They made her soul soar, her heart and chest feel like they were about to explode. So this was love. She had to say, she would never get enough of this feeling. She pressed into Batwing more, leaning on him as she lay there, using him as a very comfortable pillow.

Her eyes were closing as he asked his next question. No, I want to stay here with you... her voice trailed off as her eyes closed shut and her breathing slowed. She had fallen asleep, comfortable and safe with her mate. Nothing could get her, nothing else mattered. She was happy, dreaming of their future and their kits.

"If that's what you want, I can't argue." Truthfully, he wanted to return to camp. To curl up in his nest, Lostsong sleeping in the nest beside his... But they wouldn't be this close. It reminded him of his mother. Such a gentle soul... Caring for him, giving him the best advice anyone could offer...

Would Lostsong be like that? He stared at her lithe shape. Something told him she would.

Then, her breathing began to slow, telling him that she'd fallen asleep. This wasn't good. If she fell asleep here, without the warmth of her clanmates, she could catch a cold! But he couldn't drag her to camp, and waking his sleeping beauty* was out of the question.

The only thing left to do was lay closer to her and hope that their body warmth would be enough to prevent getting sick.

As the black tom closed his eyes, he slowly entwinned his tail with her's and let sleep wash over him, but even long after sleep had taken over, the tom's purr echoed of the cave walls.

But was it out of love? Or from a victory that might change the clan forever...?

*see what I did there? refrence!

((I think we can say that this threads over. I do like the ending. Kinda cute, yet kinda eerie. Kinda... bittersweet, I guess...))
