Night in the camp

Shiningpaw sat on a stump looking at the moon...... she sighed nobody liked her anymore what have i done?! she thought to her self

Aurapaw padded out towards the stump Shining was sitting on, letting out a loud yawn before tilting his head curiously at her. "Aren't you going to come to the apprentices' den? It's late and you should get some sleep," he remarked before noticing a troublesome expression on the fellow apprentice's face. "Is something the matter?"

"Everything" she mummbled "she took a long stride over to Aurapaw and stared at him with her big hazel eyes glistining in the darkness "Everything" she whispered again

"Want to talk about it?" Aurapaw asked in a quiet voice and with an interrogative tone, pressing his pelt reassuringly against Shiningpaw's in an attempt to cheer her up.

" I dont know" she replyed with pain in he vocie " You dont have a hard life like me" she sighed "You have people that like you" she said with longing

Tears poured down her eye and in to her fur she was sad, veary sad.

"Shiningpaw, we're clanmates-- we fight to defend each other. We all share one identical life; if you have problems, then they're also my problems, and I'd like to help you. Please tell me what's troubling you," he reassured her, using the tip of his tail to wipe away her tears.

"Every body hates me!" she Blurted "And they all love you" she said bitterly

"I've lost every body close to me lately" she looked down "They keep getting farther and farther away" she looked eyes betraly and sorow in her eyes

"Shiningpaw," he sighed, "not every cat "loves" me, and not every cat will love you, but what makes you think that everyone hates you? I like you! Bramblepaw likes you, Leopardpaw and Goldenfeather like you, even cats from other clans such as Rainpaw and Pantherpaw like you!"

"But they like me less since i have fell in love" she looked down "And i have been losing people close to me"

"Fallen in love? With who?" he asked with curiosity.

"Pantherpaw......." she said blushing deeply

"A-Ah, r-right," he stuttered, remembering what had happened earlier that moon. "And who are these people you're "losing"?"

She look up st him "You" she looked down "We are driffting farther apart by each day! and Flame and Echo! some of the people i hold d-dearest to me" she gasped for breath she talked so long
