Stormcloud entered the clearing protected by those forever oaks. It was just barley after sunhigh. And a frog limply dangled from his jaws. He had been in such a rush that he hadn't of had time to bury it.
He had slipped away from his hunting patrol, yet again. And took the trek to the Fourtrees. But, all for good reason. And without the hope of seeing her, he would of surely passed away during the night. Ever since yesterday, he couldn't think about anything, but her. It was like she was his own personal tree of catmint. And he would do anything to see her, or even be in her presence.
Stormcloud's eyes darted from place to place, hoping that none of the sunhigh patrols would be making their rounds by the Fourtrees. Luckily, there was none in sight at the moment. The gray tom padded to the center of the clearing and sat by the base of the great rock that seemed to spring up from the ground itself. He dropped his prey, merely because the taste of a newly caught frog in his mouth was too tempting. And, after he had already broken so many rules, he didn't want to break at least a basic one, that could be easily controlled.
The tom looked to the sky, gray clouds covered nearly the whole sky. But, that wasn't the most rare thing to see lately. It seemed as though it never stopped raining. Although, the sky looked like it could sustain dryness for a bit longer. A breeze ruffled his fur and send him shivering. The ShadowClan warrior licked his chest fur in order it take up a bit more time.
Stormcloud looked over to the WindClan border. With high hopes of seeing of that familiar black she-cat gazing at him with her beautiful emerald green eyes. Now that, that is worth something to live for. And it's all he would ever need. It was like he was outside... Outside of the warrior code when he was around her. None of the things that forbid them to be together mattered. They seemed to be outside, and that was alright with him.

Nightsky padded softly to Fourtrees. She had been so anxious about coming here again. She didn't sleep well last night, and probably wouldn't for a long time. Whenever she was away from Stormcloud, she couldn't get her mind of him.
As soon as she saw him she started to sprint. He was the one cat she loved, the one cat she would die for that was outside of her clan.
"Stormcloud!" She mewed happily as rubbed her head against his warm side.

Stormcloud was ecstatic to see the beloved she-cat. He returned her affectionate greeting with a purr.
"I'm so glad you made it. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to come." he purred to the black she-cat.
The gray tom couldn't contain his love for a heartbeat more. It was torture going back into camp alone, acting as if were just another day. It was even worse when he saw Hawkshadow and Clawear able to publicly express their love for one another, and knowing that he would never be able to do so.
For those reasons, Stormcloud chariest ever heartbeat he was around Nightsky, being able to be... himself. And his true self too. Not the cat that everyone wanted him to be. The loyal, polite, quiet warrior. No, he could express himself and not have to be perfect with Nightsky. It was just.. .... Different with her. It was like she didn't expect all those things of him. She loved him for... him. And he loved her for her.
He let out another long purr. "Did you have any trouble getting away?" he asked, hoping he wasn't getting her into too much trouble.

"I wouldn't miss meeting you for the world" Nightsky whispere back to Stormcloud as she heared him purr.
She felt like her heart was going to explode with happiness. Being around him was just so wonderful!
"I had no trouble getting here at all. Mosseyes was busy sending out patrols and Silverleaf was out hunting." Nightsky mewed happily.

Stormcloud drew in Nightsky's sweet scent. It was sweeter than the honey Moonfang gave to sick cats. "I'm glad to heard that." he whispered.
"But, what about Ghostwind?" the gray tom asked, out of complete curiosity. He knew from the last Gathering that Ghostwind wasn't the nicest cat. And he would probably do anything to get a fellow Clanmate into trouble.
But, his anger vanished as soon as his amber eyes met her green eyes. At that moment, the gap was completely filled. And he realized that it was her. Ngightsky was the thing to heal the emptiness inside his heart. His life seemed completely and utterly complete. Everything where it was meant to be. It just seemed so... Perfect.

"He has to stay at camp for a while. We ran into a fox yesterday and he was injured." Nightsky said calmly.
She thought back to yesterday, when such a perfect day Was ruined. So fast and unexpected. Could that ever happen when she was with Stormcloud?

Stormcloud was both relived and even more worried at that comment. "A-A fox? Are you alright? What happened?" he frantically mewed.
His amber eyes rounded, and filled with fear. A fox? How cou-.... he cut his thoughts off. The gray tom then realized something.... ..... He could never be there for Nightsky.. ..... Whenever troubles found their way to her, he could never really know. The chances are that he wouldn't even know she was gone for good until it would be reported at the Gathering.. He would go on with his day as something terrible would happen to her. Unknowing.
The only thing that could really get through Stormcloud's mind was relief. Joy that she was here now, and that was really all that mattered.

"It wasn't that bad, really." Nightsky mewed embarrassed.
She could tell by the way he was looking at her that he was concerned for her. She loved him too, and worried about him whenever she was away from him.
"I was with Mosseyes and Silverleaf, and we were all okay." Nightsky mewed, licking his ear to comfort him.

Stormcloud breathed a sigh of relief. Nightsky was alright, nothing happened. Plus, the deputy and another warrior was there with her and Ghostwind. She was safe.
The gray tom nuzzled the black she-cat, feeling her fur on his face.
"Nightsky, I... I can't stand not being able to know if you're well or not. All I can go off of is if you show up or not and the news reported at the Gathering. It's just so.... ... difficult." he whispered.

"I know it is, but we'll manage somehow." Nightsky whispered back to Stormcloud.
She was madly in love with this Shadowclan cat, yet she wouldn't be able to tell any cat about him. As much as she wanted to tell Silverleaf about her visits with him, she would just have to bite her tongue.
"So, should I go to the next Gathering? If Ghostwind sees us together, he mind get an idea." Nightsky mewed as she looked up at her love.

Stormcloud just gazed into her eyes. He could get lost in those eyes. Looking into Nightsky's eyes was like drowning in a green sea, but it didn't seem horrible to die in her gaze, it was just... .. peaceful.
The gray tom pondered upon this for a while. "I... ... Really have no idea. Ghostwind is so malicious, and seems like his purpose in life is to ruin your's. But, I haven't got a clue." he mewed. His amber eyes clouded with confusion. The thought that he hadn't even taken that to mind nagged at him. Surely no one would really notice. All the cats went to the Gathering to see other cats from the other Clans, didn't they? Now that they all had a common enemy, they couldn't be watching every cat, they would be more preoccupied with the fear of the Dead Plains attacking. Then, it all assembled inside his mind.
"Wait! Remember how the Dead Plains had attacked at one of the Gatherings?" he enthusiastically mewed, hoping that she would catch on. But, of course she would, she was the most intelligent cat he had ever met.

"Sure I do. So are you saying that the clans will be thinking more about that then the small things like us?" Nightsky meowed to her love, deep in thought now.
Thinking about what he said, Nightsky realized they could use the rogues as a cover up. Maybe they could even get Ghostwind paranoid about it too!
"So all we have to to is get our clans a little paranoid!" Nightsky said after her deep thinking.

"Exactly!" Stromcloud mewed.
He drew his tongue over Nightsky's head. He loved her with all of his heart, and there was nothing better spending time with the black she-cat. He knew she would get it, she was so smart. He let out a purr. What could be wrong this moment? Nothing. he answered himself.

"So, how exactly do we make them paranoid?" Nightsky asked Stormcloud.
She had started to think about this now, they would need a lot of distractions. Her tail was swaying, just thinking about those rogues. Were they going to come to the next Gathering? If so, Nightsky and Stormcloud could sneak away for a while, but was that considered betraying their clans? Nightsky looked up at Stormcloud for reassurance that they were doing the right thing.

"I... .. Haven't really thought of that. But, it shouldn't be that hard, maybe we could just talk about the fight and the Dead Plains a lot. That might do that job." Stormcloud mewed.
This might be tricky, but it would be worth it in the end, he just had that feeling in the pit of his stomach. The feeling that, in the end, everything would be okay.
