       wake me up when september ends [private]

       Fallenstar padded to the top of the rockpile. He looked down on
       the cats of his clan, his blind, glassy eyes unfocused, mostly
       because he couldn't see. "Anyone up for a patrol?" the old
       leader called, his voice raspy.

       [font=georgia][color=maroon]sidling up to the leader, pressing
       her muzzle into his fur, sphinxfoot allowed her green eyes to
       travel across the small but growing clan. "i'll come with you,
       fallenstar." the ginger she-cat mewed, watching fallenstar
       intently. he was like a father to her, but he was growing old,
       and... she knew it was only a matter of time before he left to
       join starclan and she became leader. but... sphinx wasn't ready
       to become leader, and she wouldn't be for a long time! how would
       she cope with the stress? panic rose inside her suddenly, but
       she forced it back down, becoming dizzy for a moment before she
       got her emotions under control and repeated, "i'll come with
       you, fallenstar."

       [font=georgia]Fallenstar managed a rumbly purr, and he nuzzled
       his favorite she-cat back. The five year old tom loved
       Sphinxfoot more than she would ever know. He was growing old for
       a wild cat, but there was something he was determined to tell
       her before he left SkyClan forever and rose to the stars. "Say,
       Sphinxfoot...why don't just you and I go and patrol? There's
       something I want to talk to you about." he murmured, his scruffy
       brown tail swishing about.[/font]

       [font=georgia][color=maroon]sphinxfoot nodded, unsure of what he
       wanted. if he was going to talk about her becoming leader soon
       she didn't want to hear any of it ~ her being leader meant him
       being dead, and then she would just explode. nonetheless, she
       obeyed fallenstar and nodded, more because he was like a father
       to her than him being leader. "ok, fallenstar." she stepped away
       slowly, still anxious about him and his blindness. "what did you
       want to talk to me about?"

       [font=georgia]Fallenstar took a careful leap off the rockpile,
       landing squarely on his paws. He might not be able to see, but
       he had all of his other senses sharpened to perfection. His
       greyish, sightless eyes peered ahead, and the brown pelted
       leader walked slowly towards the edge of the gorge.
       "Sphinxfoot...I've been leader a long time." he began. He didn't
       want her to think he was dying, so he quickly added, [B]"I'm not
       dying, don't worry."[/b]
       He stopped finally, at the canton's edge, on the grassy slope
       that led into the forest above the gorge. "I think we've grown
       pretty close, you know, all these moons...and you mah think of
       me as a family member but I...uh..." his voice faltered, unsure
       how to word this. [B]"I want you to be my mate,
       Sphinxfoot."[/b][/font]

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       [font=georgia][color=maroon]her heart missed a beat at his first
       words, and once again the thought of his death raced into her
       mind. she relaxed a little after, however. good. he wasn't going
       to die just yet. sphinx breathed a sigh of relief at that, for
       she couldn't think of life without fallenstar. he had been there
       for her through everything, and she was determined to keep him
       away from starclan for as long as possible. death for him just
       didn't seem right, yet.
       'i want you to be my mate, sphinxfoot.'
       at that she froze in utter disbelief, turning her head very
       slowly to stare at him in confusion. what? she had never even
       considered love, as strange as that sounded; her duties took up
       all her time, and what little time she had to spare was spent
       with fallenstar. but... then again, the whole mate thing was
       kind of realistic. they spent almost every second of every day
       together, so it wouldn't be like a relationship where they never
       saw each other. but still... sphinx was still a little nervous.
       "i..." for once she was truly and utterly speechless. it was
       like asking her father to be her mate, even though now all she
       could think about was his offer. the whole father-daughter thing
       drained away in that one moment, leaving her confused and dizzy
       again. normally, when it came to a dilemma, she would go to
       fallenstar, but now it was he who was creating the problem,
       and...
       "fallenstar, i... i'd like to say yes and all..." it was obvious
       to tell she was already scared. "but it's weird. i... why would
       you even want me? i'm just a normal cat and all..." she pressed
       her body against his, seeking aid again. god, she was like, the
       worst and most nervous deputy ever. ugh.

       [font=georgia]Fallenstar looked down on his dearest deputy's
       head. "Sphinxfoot, please understand...I've never loved another
       cat like you, and I never will. We spend all our time together,
       and..." the leader scrambled for words, then trailed off,
       realizing how desperate he must sound. He stepped away from the
       beautiful ginger she cat, closing his useless eyes.
       "If you don't feel the same way, it's fine. We can just go back
       to camp and assemble a patrol to hunt." Fallenstar mewed
       distantly, his heart beating a mile a minute. He knew it, he
       just knew she'd reject him.[/font]

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       [font=georgia][color=maroon]she closed her own eyes and tipped
       her head back to the side, sighing softly again. "no... it's not
       that..." sphinxfoot turned round to face him again and reached
       out a paw uncertainly. "i'm just..." it was then that she
       realised there were only two ways out. one to say yes, two to
       just say no. just say no. but she loved her leader, and she
       didn't want to hurt him...
       standing again, the deputy padded back over to fallenstar and
       sat down again, pressing against him. like he had said, they
       spent all their time together, and, though she had never
       admitted it before, she did kinda like him in that way. "don't
       go..." she whispered, having no idea why her voice had lowered.
       "i-i love you, fallenstar..."

       [font=georgia]Fallenstar didn't smile, but instead sighed. "I
       don't think you're being honest with me." he mewed, voice
       cracking again. He didn't look at her, because his face was
       pained. His heart ached that she hadn't initially accepted, and
       the old leader hadn't been born yesterday, he knew she probably
       was just saying she loved him because she felt like she hurt his
       feelings.[/font]

       [font=georgia][color=maroon]once again sphinxfoot was in an
       awkward position, but she decided to tell the truth. "it isn't
       that. i was just nervous... no-one's ever really said anything
       like that to me before, and... i guess i didn't know how to
       react. love's just new to me in that way, but believe me,
       please, when i say i would never lie to you, even if the truth
       would potentially hurt someone. i'd never lie... i never have."
       she crouched, suddenly aware of the cold winds. "please believe
       me, fallenstar. please." sphinx was close to tears now, so she
       closed her eyes and grit her teeth in an effort to stop the sobs
       from echoing around the gorge. so he didn't believe her now. was
       there no trust left?
