Thrushpelt sighed in frustration when he couldn't pick up a scent. He watched as Hollysplash moved towards the reeds, and blinked in surprise when he saw her catch a vole. She probably saw it. It's too hard to smell prey in this infernal cold. Drawing a long breath, he padded after her and smiled.
"Good catch, Hollysplash," he said. Then he looked around for more prey. Parting his jaws, he scented as he cast his gaze about. He thought he saw some movement in a nearby holly bush, so he moved towards it slowly, carefully, his paws making no sound on the frost-hardened earth.

Hollysplash nodded as she watched his attention focus on a Bush she watched him intently while also looking around for more pray while scenting the air. "all the pray is probubly tucked away in there burrows from the cold" Ooc: I have to go very soon I have school tomarrow at 6:00 and its 11:54 now*

OOC: That's fine! We can continue tomorrow or whenever.
Thrushpelt moved towards the bush slowly, listening. He could tell from the sounds that it was prey, probably another bird. Thrushpelt felt a rush of excitement. Ironically, the prey he hunted best when the river was frozen was birds. The tom slid towards the bird and crouched, listening. Then he let out a yowl as he flung himself at the bush. The bird, startled, flew into the air--and straight into Thrushpelt's claws. He felt satisfaction warm his body as he looked down at the prey he had caught. The tom glanced at Hollysplash to see if she had noticed his catch.

Hollysplash was watching him her eyes shining wit admiration and another feeling." great catch that bird flew right into your claws almost like it wanted to be caught." Hollysplash purred " this is a weird feeling I have for him. Ithink I'm falling in love with him. How did I not notice. But he doesn't feel the same way I bet." she looked down at he paws sadly
Ooc: have to go will continue to.arrow

OOC: Have a good sleep then
Feeling thrilled at Hollysplash's compliments, Thrushpelt dipped his head and smiled around the bird in his jaws. He set it down and glanced around before turning back to Hollysplash.
"Well, that's a good catch for one hunting patrol," he said with a sigh. He was a bit hungry. Perhaps Hollysplash would consider sharing fresh-kill with him when they got back to camp?

She picked up her vole and student up she walked a few paces her tail down then she looked back waiting for him to fallow.

Thrushpelt picked up his prey and followed. He wondered why Hollysplash looked so down. The tom ran to catch up to her so that they walked side-by-side. He glanced at her wonderingly and murmured around the prey in his mouth,
"Are you okay? You seem kind of upset."

Thrushpelt pricked his ears and glanced sideways at Hollysplash.
"Oh? Well, what are you thinking about, then?" he asked curiously. He wondered if she would talk to him about what was troubling her. She seemed to be deflecting his questions, so maybe it was something she didn't really want to tell him. Which was possible. After all, they were... friends, but maybe not... close friends. At least, not close enough to share everything with each other. Thrushpelt would probably tell her everything in his heart if he wasn't so insecure, but he figured that she just didn't trust him enough yet to tell him what lay in hers.

Thrushpelt stared at Hollysplash for a moment, his whole body freezing in shock. Then all of the emotions he had been suppressing for so long came pouring out as his body seemed to sag with relief and his eyes shone with joy.
"R-really? Are... are you serious?" he asked, his voice filled with hope--as were his eyes. The tom had never imagined that Hollysplash could feel the same way he did, and that idea made his heart feel like it was soaring inside of him.

Hollysplash nodded she was smileing with joy because she could tell he felt the same way."yes iv liked you for a very long time. but you were always busy and never invited me to join you so I lost hope. Buttoday when you asked me to come hunting with you my heart skipped with joy." She smiled joyously and purred at the same time.

Feeling a rush of happiness warming his insides, Thrushpelt looked into Hollysplash's eyes and leaned forward to place a gentle lick on her cheek. He let out a faint purr and said,
"I've loved you for a long time, too. I always thought someone as... beautiful and wonderful as you would never like someone like me." He stared at his paws for a moment and then looked back up at her. "But you do. And I love you." The words were almost impossible to comprehend after spending so much time thinking that his love would never be returned. He was so happy to be with her now, to hear the words coming from her that he had worried he never would.

Thrushpelt flushed and looked shyly down at his paws.
"Um... well... if you want that, yeah..." he meowed softly. Looking into Hollysplash's eyes, Thrushpelt was so happy to be with her, to have his feelings known and accepted. He could hardly contain his delight, and it was all he could do to swallow the purr in his throat.
