camp I kissed a girl ♫ confession!

[Bugpaw !]

*+:｡.｡ //Set before the Sky drama </3

Bugpaw thought about it for a long time (that is to say, an evening only) and came to a decision.
She wanted to feel the kind of love Braveheart felt! She wanted to know what it was like to look at a pretty cat and make them your beloved, the way mamma and pappa surely had! Bugpaw wanted to love someone! So, inspired by the older warrior, the young girl set off on her afternoon mission. Bouncing on cloud 9, she picked flowers on her patrol and thought about life with her tail twined about another's, speaking sweet compliments to one another and - oh my gosh! Now this thought really made her cheeks redden, worse than her spots! - nuzzle someone not in her family! The mental image made the little girl squeal! (She had to apologize profusely when doing so startled the prey Falconheart had been attempting to show her how to catch).

Soon, however, morning became sunhigh became evening, and Bugpaw's training was over. With all the free time the late afternoon had to offer, Bugpaw decided to not waste any chances! Picking her bouquet, the girl would pad over to the prettiest cat she'd known, her childhood den-mate recently made an apprentice. What it meant to be mates, or to pad after someone, or to even love someone were questions she didn't think she needed to ask. Instead, of following Braveheart's direction, the baby followed only her dreams and lightly tapped @Meadowpaw on the shoulder.

"Hi Meadowpaw! I think you're really, really pretty, bouquet-tiful even! Do you wanna be mates with me?" she rushes through her question, voice muffled through the multi-colored petals in her mouth. If Meadowpaw rejected her, Bugpaw would accept the verdict as bravely as Braveheart had, but if she were to accept...Bugpaw fought the urge to squeal again, lest she drop the flowers!
OhmyStarclan would they...share a nest, then? EEP!
Bugpaw dances on her toes, eagerly awaiting her childhood friend's response.

[Meadowpaw]

Meadowpaw was no stranger to love, of course. She had loved many things in her short lifetime. She loved her ma, she loves her da, her sisters, her cousins. She loves mice and sunshine and rain and rainbows! And she loves loves loves the feeling of crushing her enemies in battle! (Her enemies mainly being, well, Beetlepaw and Sunpaw mostly) She is aware of the other kind of love, the kind that existed between cats like her mother and father, like Burnstorm and Roeflame, but she wouldn't be lying if she said she didn't quite understand.

That isn't to say Meadowpaw hasn't experienced crushes before - fleeting moments in her short life where she looked at another cat and her heart twisted in a way that might be love, she has no idea! Why did it have to be so complicated! AAAAA! Bugpaw was cool, too cool. She was the daughter of Flamewhiser which was like totally awesome and she was nice and she was funny and most importantly, she liked a lot of the same stuff that Meadowpaw liked! And plus, she had felt that weird heart twisty emotion once or twice when looking at her. But could you blame her?

In all her six moons though, Meadowpaw never would have imagined Bugpaw actually liked her back, not until the older apprentice was standing before her with a bouquet of her favorite flowers declaring her love for her right in front of the whole clan! "Ohmygosh? Bugpaw? Do you mean it?" she asks, green eyes wide as she looks around, like she's expecting this to be some elaborate prank orchestrated by some other apprentices to embarrass her. She feels heat rise to her cheeks and warm her ears at the same time a goofy grin spreads across her face "OF COURSE I'LL BE YOUR MATE SILLY!" She says, her voice a little too loud as she launches herself at her newfound "life partner", aiming to bowl her over and bombard the side of her face with a huge sloppy kiss.

[ROEFLAME .]

-ˋˏ ༻ ☀ ༺ ˎˊ-

News of Bravehearts confession had swept through camp, as events like that usually do. Roeflame couldn’t say she understood the young tom’s hurt, by the time she got the courage to hit on Burnstorm, he was ready to reciprocate. Perhaps her timing could have been better, though.
As sun-high was encroaching, Roeflame would only just be returning from her training with Dovepaw, paws sore after their lessons in traversing through the forests thick terrain, following a scent trail without thumping and rustling. Bugpaw approaching Meadowpaw with a bundle of flowers is the first thing the Lead Warrior sees as she’d send Dovepaw off to get lunch with their siblings.
Do you wanna be mates with me?

Roeflame is near dumbfounded, hadn’t she just watched these kits be born like, yesterday? As shrill joy bursts from Meadowpaw, the Lead Warrior finally draws closer. It was a surprise, yes… but it was also pretty damn adorable. “That’s real sweet of you, Bugpaw.” Roeflame chimes, “just don’t forget you have to be, uhm, platonic mates first, like besties. That’s the rule.” The tabby had never been one to be the wet blanket, so she wouldn’t start now. The scene was just too sweet to do more than add an age-appropriate tweak to Bugpaw’s proposal.

[Bugpaw !]

*+:｡.｡ Bugpaw wondered if this was love. The way her heart raced in her chest as she tapped Medowpaw, the tingle in her digits where she touched soft red-striped fur, as if static hid beneath the cotton fuzz of her friend's multi-colored coat. It's an exhilarating feeling, one that makes her own fur fluff up, almost engulfing her entire face, which has also begun to burn and redden in time with the rush of blood from her pounding heart. How it could be that a heart could pound and race is beyond her! Like it's running around in circles within her chest cavity, heavy paws slamming a drum-beat into her soul. It's not entirely unpleasant, but the anticipation is hard to sit with - so she doesn't - for the millisecond it takes for Meadowpaw to turn around and answer her, Bugpaw is tippy-tapping on her feet, as if her legs long to replicate her heart's desire and run, though not necessarily out of fear.
Love is energizing!

Meadowpaw's eyes were the color of lucky clovers. They always sparkled in a way that reminded Bugpaw of morning dew glistening on a flower's leaf, waving amicably in the breeze. The runner in her chest trips over the air, making her heart stutter to a stop so abruptly she has to take a little bite of air to encourage them to resume beating - they just sprint even faster, it seems. Bugpaw blinks rapidly above her smile as Meadowpaw starts to squeal at her, the words rushing at Bugpaw so quickly that she almost doesn't pick them up in time. It's hard to listen to what Meadowpaw is saying when all Bugpaw can focus on is how pretty her smile is!
Love is distracting!

Pulled out of her cloud only thanks to Meadowpaw attacking her with a well-timed anchoring weight, Bugpaw's back on land, and she's now squealing just as loud as her friend - her mate! "Ohmyants YAY! I'm gonna be the best mate ever, I promise!" she laughs, rolling into a pile of fluff dyed red as the flowers she unfortunately dropped explode into the air all around them.

Roeflame soon appears with...confusing ask. Still embracing her girlfriend, Bugpaw blinks dumbly, but politely, at the older she-cat. "What's plant-onic mates? Aren't mates already besties?" She looks back at Meadowpaw, admiring a flower that got stuck on her girlfriend's forehead. She adjusts it so the petals are properly flared out, before noting how close their noses are, "I think we're already plant-tonic, huh bud-dy" she giggles.

[shroudedpaw]

Love was a concept unfamiliar to Shroudedpaw. Maybe he loved his siblings, in his own weird way - he protected them, and established order. But he had never claimed to 'love' another cat besides, and truthfully he wasn't even sure where to start.

Bugpaw seems to have beaten him to that milestone, much to his distaste. Shroudedpaw watches the scenario unfold with a deepset frown. Mates? Besties? Silver eyes flick from Bugpaw, then to Meadowpaw, and then back to Bugpaw as they embrace and share sweet words. All the while, he feels his blood boil. What about him? What happened to Bugpaw being his friend?

" Gross, " is all Shroudedpaw can muster as he rolls his eyes at the pair, and then dips back into the apprentice's den. Perhaps, he thinks bitterly, he should move his nest from its spot next to Bugpaw's to make room for Meadowpaw, if she's taking his place as Bugpaw's bestie anyway.
