Ivypool blinked her eyes open. The sun was shining into her den. She stood up, and made her way into the clearing.  Thunderclan camp. She thought with a sigh.
"Ivypool! Are you ok?" Asked a pale grey she-cat.
"Yes Dovewing. I'm fine," Ivypool mewed, exhausted. She might not have been fighting the whole time, but knowing everything that happened last night was... exhausting. Ivypool knew one thing; she had to see Hawkfrost. She needed to know why he could heal, why he loved her. Deep inside, she wanted to ask him if he would still love her, if she didn't fight for the Dark Forest in the great battle.
Dovewing looked at Ivypool with worry. "You should go to Jayfeather. You look sick."

As Ivypool made her way into the Gathering, all she could think of was Hawkfrost. He loves me, he loves me, he loves me! She thought excitedly. She was partly upset, because she wouldn't get to see him for long tonight, because of the Gathering. She glared at Firestar, while he climbed up the Great Oak, and settled on a branch. Ivypool padded over to the edge of the clearing. She decided to curl up behind some bushes, and take a nap, so she could see Hawkfrost. Before she even entered the bush, she heard some odd giggles and purrs, from the in the bushes. Curious, she peeked through some branches, keeping upwind, so she wouldn't be scented. What she saw shocked her.
"Stop it!" Dovewing purred, obviously not wanting the other cat to stop.
"Never," purred back Bumblestripe. He was licking her muzzle, while he was laying by her side. Their tails were intertwined, and they had a loving look in their eyes. Then, Dovewing gently pinned him down on his back. Ivypool felt hot under her pelt. She was frozen and shock, and couldn't move. At one point, Dovewing moaned, snapping Ivypool out of her shock, and she pelted away. She was scarred. She thought her sister and Bumblestripe weren't mates anymore! Well I can throw that idea to the foxes. She shuddered. But then, she realized the longing she felt was that she wanted to have what Dovewing and Bumblestripe have. She wanted it with Hawkfrost, but she wanted to make it better.
