Little Wolf was at the gathering, not like she had heard a word that had been said though. Her eyes were only for the cream point tom standing on the rock from which the leaders gave their news. All she could think of was how sad he looked, how unlike the Blaise she had once known and it broke her heart in two. She felt it twist in her chest as she sees her own emotions relayed on his features. She wants to badly to go to him, to comfort him and tell him it was all okay, to be his rock. But he had made his choice and she had made hers, there was no world where she could comfort him anymore and it hurt. It was a painful claw in her chest, twisting and turning and making her want to cry out about the unfairness of it all. If she could turn back time she would guide his paws to the marshes, then to the tall oak trees. They could be together. This was not that world though, and there was no turning back time. As much as she spent countless nights wishing there was.
When the gathering ends she waits until the last possible second before turning to join her clan, her eyes stay on her once-upon-a-time mate for a few seconds longer than they should, reluctant to leave him in this state, reluctant to tear herself away when he is so close to her. It takes everything in her to turn, to watch her clan leave the hollow, her own son and apprentice included, and take the first painful paw step to join them. It feels wrong, so wrong, to not stick around to press herself into his thick fur, to not hear his voice only for her but the small scraps that she has of it, words meant for all the cats in the clearing, are scraps she would hold onto even after she leaves here.
// @BLAZESTAR feel free to have him intercept her before she leaves! sorry this is short starters are BLEGH
