Together forever - MottlexSpeckled

[RiiRii]

[bg=d9d1d5][atrb=width,400,true][atrb=border,0,true] After what felt like a long trek, the two cats had finally arrived back at their camp. Speckledfur's legs were aching, but she knew she still had to walk. The entrance was right in front of them, they just had to go through and drop off the prey on the fresh-kill pile. That wasn't too hard, was it? Nope, it was. Her brother could be around. Sniffing the air, all she could smell was fish. Even so, if her brother was around; it did not bother her. She was able to fix things, hopefully. Slowly letting go of the fish, she pushed through the entrance into camp and after a few heartbeats came out again to take hold of the fish. Now she felt the weight of it, causing her to tilt her head slightly to keep the fish from weighing the two cats down. “All clear.” She meowed softly. “Brother ish too cawt up wizz Kitewhishker..” She blinked, why was her brother discussing with an elder and seeming very intrigued. With this as an opportunity, she knew with the Elder having control of her brothers mind - the two cats were perfectly safe. However, who knew how long that would take. She did not care, though. She would be with her mate and that meant everything to her. He was more important to her than her very own brother was, that was all she had to say. Starclan approved it, so her brother should too. She and Mottletail had to carry a heavy hunk of slimy fish back to camp, but worked together while doing so, even if it was quiet she could still feel the love due to their tails being intertwined together. She was madly in love, how could any cat oppose to that? “speaking color.”

The weight of the fish was using up all of the small toms energy. The two cats had hardly spoken since they started walking. They just walked side by side, their tails twined together as they walked all the way to camp. If Mottletail could pant, he would be at the moment. The darn fish was blocking his mouth though, and assaulting his senses with the smell of it. He couldn't wait to get this thing out of his mouth.

Speckledfur walked in the camp entrance, leaving him to bear the whole weight of the fish. He nearly toppled over, not prepared for the sheer weight of it. How in the name of Starclan did he catch this thing in the first thing? Slight pride welled in his chest, when his mate's head poked back out. Smiling around the fish he was thankful to be sharing the load with the female. Once they were in camp he moved beside her again, once again connecting their tails. She said something about her brother and he nodded, picking up the pace until they reached the fresh kill pile. Finally, he dropped the thing, licking his chops to clean them. He looked at Speckledfur and smiled, love swelling in his hazel eyes. He glanced around her shoulder then, seeing that her brother was talking to Kitewhisker. "So, what next? Do I go over there and talk to him?" he asked, his tail tip twitching in anticipation. He was a bit worried about talking to him and how it would turn out. Anything to be with his love, anything.

Mottletail sat on his haunches by the fresh kill pile, drawing in a breath of the prey. He saw a strangely plump mouse and grabbed it before any other greedy kitty saw it. He then dropped it at Speckledfur's paws, nudging it closer to her and he sunk onto his belly. His freed tail was wagging on the ground slowly, a large yawn opening his maw wide. "I do want to get this over with, I'm tired and cannot wait to sleep beside my new mate," he purred, a smile on his maw.

[RiiRii]

[bg=d9d1d5][atrb=width,400,true][atrb=border,0,true] What to do next? Even that thought filtered through her mind. “Well, my brother is busy with Kitewhisker.” She meowed. “Let us wait until he notices us, if he has not already...” Brushing up against her mate, she turned her head around his shoulder and instantly began to groom him. Closing her eyes, she felt his warmth and scent go down her throat and she began to purr deeply, nuzzling into his neck and gently nipping at the matted fur that had knotted from the water. “We don't want you catching a cold.” she meowed softly between licks. “The last thing I want from you is to be sick.” As she placed a paw to his chest, she kneaded it softly with her claws and helping clean his fur. Slowly she broke from the cleaning and yawning. She was tired, they had been out a majority of the day and it suddenly hit her. Noticing the mouse, she turned and headed to the fresh-kill pile and picked up a thrust and carried it towards him and dropping it down. “Here, you need some food too.” she then tucked down in her mouse, she would share it but it was small and a few bites wouldn't be enough to fill two cats. Since Mottletail did work, he deserved something bigger. After the fish had gone, she felt much better and stretched out. “speaking color.”

Mottletail laughed, shaking his head at Kitewhisker and his mates brother. "I wonder what that crazy old elder is going on about now. I don't know how he can stand that old bat," he muttered. He had lucked out and had not not ran into the elder. He had heard stories about Kitewhisker though, and none of them were in the tom's favor. When Speckledfur rubbed against him, a shiver raced down his spine. She began to groom him and a loud purr rumbled past his lips. She pulled at his mats and groomed out the damage that the water had caused. Part of it hurt, causing him to flinch slightly. The scent of her and their shared warmth made up for the slight pull of his skin that the dematting caused him. He was glad that she was getting them out, and he licked her cheek whenever her face came close enough to him. She talked about him getting sick, but he barley heard her over the sound of their mixed purrs.

Speckledfur pulled back from him and he frowned, longing for the warmth of her by him again. Mottletail saw her yawn though, and concern flooded his eyes. They had been out nearly all day, they both needed to sleep. He glanced over her striped shoulder and peered at her brother, wondering if he had spotted them by now. Maybe they could sneak into the warriors den and go to sleep. They could curl up beside each other... he purred softly just at the thought of it. The smell of fresh kill flooded his scenes, and he looked down to see that his mate had brought him a thrush. He smiled and licked her ear in graduate before digging in. It didn't last long, he swallowed the prey animal quickly, his hunger only slightly ebbing away. It wasn't much, but it would keep his hunger at bay for now. With a little food in his belly, his tiredness became even stronger.

The white and orange cat bowed down, stretching his back. A large yawn opened his jaw to it maximum wideness. Looking at Speckledfur, he smiled at her and placed his paw over hers for a moment. "Would you like to go to sleep, or should we talk to your brother?"

[RiiRii]

[bg=d9d1d5][atrb=width,400,true][atrb=border,0,true] She was tired, yes. Did she want to sleep no. "Would you like to go to sleep, or should we talk to your brother?"

[/s]
She brushed her tail around his cheek, gazing at him and yawned once again.

“I may be tired, but doing something will get my mind off it." She winked a green eye and laughed softly and she turned to gaze at her brother and Kitewhisker. “Why don't we go and set up our nests together? Maybe make a big nest together, so we can share it..”
She grabbed up some feathers in her mouth, smiling and carrying it into the warriors nest.

While in the warriors den, there her nest was; next to her brothers. She inhaled the air, she always knew where Mottletail's was.
Grabbing her nest, she carefully dragged it to his nest and patted it over so they moulded and she spread the feathers out over it.
Spreading it out slightly, she turned to look towards the entrance and waited for Mottletail to come in and help her set it out a lot more.

He smiled when she winked at him, and nodded his head. Doing something would keep him awake too. She suggested placing their nests together, her tail brushing across his cheek. He had been wondering how they would build their nests together. They could sleep side by side, or maybe even join the nests together. She bent down and picked up some feathers, and Mottletail did the same. He grabbed as much as he could in his mouth and walked behind Speckledfur into the warriors den.

When he got into the den he saw that she had already placed their nests together, joining the moss together. He purred happily and spat out the feathers, one sticking on his tongue. He shook his head, but it still wouldn't leave his tongue. He looked at his mate, his fur ruffled and a feather hanging from his mouth. He probably looked rather comical. His eyes were filled with frustration, and he was going to need her help to get the feather off of himself. There was no way that he could help with the nest until it was off, it was startling to tickle his nose.

[bg=d9d1d5][atrb=width,400,true][atrb=border,0,true] having noticed a feather attached to his tongue, she laughed softly and bit down carefully into the feather and pulled it away from his tongue. After she swiped his head softly with her paw, carefully and pressed her pink nose to his and closed her eyes before opening them and looking into his. Her green eyes sparkled with love and pride, before after what felt like moons she brought her nose away and licked his cheek softly. “Only you.” She purred and turned away to carry on fixing the nest. She kneaded the moss and then eventually wrapped her tail around her forepaws. “So very soft... Do you not agree?.” “speaking color.”

While he struggled with the feather, his claw had swiped his nose. He hissed softly, but was glad that no skin was broken. Then he felt his mate move closer to him, could feel her heat pooling off of her body and wrapping him in a safe cocoon. He purred softly as she grabbed the feather off his nose and laughed, a sound that could lift even the darkest of spirits. Speckledfur knocked him on the head and he chuckled in response, dragging his tongue across her cheek in thanks. Then their noses touched, and electricity raced down his spine. He gazed into her eyes, a soft smile on his maw. She was here with him, and they were making a joined nest. Everyone would know, but he wasn't scared. He was proud to call this female his own, and couldn't wait to see how the other warriors reacted. She was his now.

"Only you."

Mottletail laughed again, shaking his head slowly and brushing his nose across hers. "I know, I'm a silly one. But hey, you're the silly one who decided to be mates with me," he teased. Her lick still tinkled on his cheek, little pinpricks of affection still dancing across his white fur. The tom watched her settle into the nest and did the same, curling his small body into a ball and peeking out at her around his long tail. "It sure is," A yawn dragged his jaws a part, which quickly snapped back together after it ended. "I sure am sleepy though. How about we try and get some rest?" he asked, staring up at her with longing in his eyes. He wished to feel her curled up beside him, and wanted to wake up to her beautiful face. His heart beat was out of whack, but he didn't care. He was in love. Madly and deeply in love.

[RiiRii]

[bg=d9d1d5][atrb=width,400,true][atrb=border,0,true] As she watched her mate, Mottletail's tail brushed the nest and over the ground shortly after. As she yawned, her white sharp teeth were bared just to be clamped together once after and she walked to her nest, padding the ground with her speckled paws and curling up in one side of the nest, her paws tucked neatly under her chest with her tail wrapped around her forepaws and the tip pressed against her cheek. Slowly she closed her eyes and opened them several seconds after, realizing she was missing a certain cat. When he joined her, she knew that she would be dead in seconds. She would sleep forever and that idea pleased her. She was happy to have a mate, somebody whom she could love and care for her; somebody who wasn't her brother... Somebody who was Mottletail. “This nest seems big without a cat next to me.” She inquired, gazing towards the side and blinking. “It's quite displeasing... Perhaps you can fill it? We did make it together and it's really comfy...” She murred quietly after and instantly a purr rumbled in her throat. “speaking color.”
