Let's Love
(Nightheart~)

I'm just a girl from the city.

You came to me, like Calvary.

And now, all I want is to hold you now.

I've been saving my soul for someone like you.

I take a deep breath as he comes and wakes me up for the dawn patrol.

He.

Sunsong.

I don't even know when I started loving him, but all I remember is that it came to me.

All I want is him. I don't want anyone else.

Just him.

So, let's love while we're young.

So, let's love before we've even begun.

Oh, darling, we'll be fine.

So, let's love while we're young.

"Nightheart?" Sunsong says softly.

I look up to see him watching me intensely.

He met my gaze, and I saw something flash in the depth of his amber gaze.

"Come on, it's time for the dawn patrol. Go wake up Birdpaw, and I'll wake up the others."

I just sat there, looking at him. His gaze didn't move either.

He just gazed at me, as if looking me over.

I love you.

Then I walk out of the den to wake up Birdpaw.

(Sunsong~)

You were the girl that came with the sunrise;

Long, brown hair and emerald eyes.

And now, I can't think of a day without you.

I've been saving my soul for someone like you.

I walked into the den, the dawn light filtering through the gaps.

''Nightheart. I think I love you.''

But no, I can't. She probably doesn't even know me.

All I want is to exist to her.

Waling in, I locate her lithe black pelt in a nest. She's awake.

"Nightheart?" I say softly. She opens those beautiful green pools of eyes, and lifts her head, her ear twitching.

I see something flashing in her green gaze as I try to memorize her picture.

''Is it love? Do you love me, Nightheart?''

My gaze hardens, and my voice comes out stiff.

"Come on, it's time for the dawn patrol. Go wake up Birdpaw, and I'll wake up the others."

She gets out of her nest, almost gracefully. But she doesn't move.

I don't want her too.

She watches me, and I watch her too, and I see her beautiful black fur and green eyes for a few more moments.

Looking into her gaze one last time, I see her looking at me.

Almost as if trying to say something.

She walks out of the den.

And all the hope I had flies away.

But I see a black head poke in after a few heartbeats, and I find myself sighing in relief.

(Nightheart~)

So, let's love while we're young.

So, let's love before we've even begun.

Oh, darling, we'll be fine.

So, let's love while we're young.

I poke my head inside after a few heartbeats.

"Sunsong?"

"Yes?"

I don't know how to say this. I just need to get it out.

It's the only way.

"Can I talk to you for a moment?" I ask, almost sheepishly.

"Uh, sure."

I walk out of the camp, Sunsong right behind me.

Coming to a stop by the lake, I look at it, and see a black she-cat with a ginger tom right next to her.

Looking at Sunsong, who is right next to me, I summon my courage.

"Sunsong. I- I think I love you."

I look away, tears filling my eyes as I imagine him rejecting me.

But his answer comes out of nowhere.

"I think I love you too."

(Sunsong~)

The joy that fills inside me is almost too much to bear as she says the words.

I force myself to stay calm as I repeat her words.

"I think I love you too."

They joy that fills her eyes fills my heart up with warmth, as the tears that were once in her eyes dry up almost instantly.

"Sunsong." She says, a new feeling in her voice.

"Nightheart." I say lovingly.

We both look into the lake, the ripples merging our reflections together.

We're one.

And as if by magic, we both utter the same words.

"Let's Love."

Then we walk back to camp, side by side.

The End.
