Sunfire walked towards sunningrocks, green eyes scanning with joy over the river.

Dapplefur had caught up with Sunfire. She was so happy and joyfull. I have not been this happy in such a long time. Dapplefur thought. She did not know what to say first. It seemed like she was so happy that the feeling had cut her voice out. She looked at the river and then at Sunfire. She was smiling for the first time in moons.

Sunfire was feeling almost the opposite of her feeling. He felt uncomfortable, hot, as if his pelt was on fire, as his fur did look. The very small orange tom kept his eyes on the river, not knowing what to say. He could feel her staring at him, but he couldn't meet her gaze.
OOC: He's VERY shy.

OCC: She's shy too. I quess all the trama thats happened to her opened her up to happiness.
Dapplefur looked out into the river again. She could sense Sunfire was uncomfortable. She didn't want him to feel uncomfortable for some reason. She felt a feeling she had never felt before in her paws.

Something suddenly hit him, "Uh, whats your name?" he asked the she-cat, feeling very stupid. He didn't even remember her name!

"Dapplefur. Um whats yours?" She asked. It was very weird that both cats had forgotten the name of the other. He probably thinks I am weird for asking him here, just to ask his name. I really came here to get to know him or maybe, mabe.... for something else. Dapplefur thought. She was getting confused without meaning to.

"Uh, Sunfire," he murmured then looked down at the water, "Um, uh," He tried to start a conversation but he wasn't very good at conversation talk. Suddenly an idea hit him. A grin spread over his face. It was sort of a lopsided grin, a grin that only he possessed, "Do you swim?" the orange tom asked her.

"Only if you teach me. Then we could be the only ThunderClan cats that know how to swim." Dapplefur meowed. She was delighted to get to do something that would make a friendship and maybe something more with Sunfire. His grin is so funny. It makes him look even more handsome in my eyes. She thought. "You can get in and start teaching me to swim." She said.

With a start, the little tom jumped into the water, making a splash. His short fur was sleek, like that of a riverclan cat, so he was a pretty good swimmer. He looked at the shore, where Dapplefur was, still grinning, "Try it!" he yelled above the river.

Dapplefur slowly walked into the river paw by paw. Then she stopped. She thought she wasn't going to like it one bit but she loved it. She loved the feel of the river. She loved how it felt against her fur. Then she plunged into the river. She stopped when she was chest deep. "Now what?" Dapplefur asked.

"You move your paws back and forth, to keep yourself in place," he explained showing her.

She did as she was told and kept her paws moving back and forth. She swam to him slowly. "This is great." She said.

OOC: Sorry for the short post earlier. I had to go to church.
Sunfire grinned even wider, if this was possible, "Yep!" Suddenly, the cat dove under the water, even his orange fur not being able to penetrate the deep blue waters. He was lost to eyesight. With a huge splah and a breath of air, the tom burst to the surface behind Dapplefur, "Boo!" he said giddily. For a moment he almost forgot to swim as he thought to himself, I haven't felt so happy since, since.... Sunfire couldn't remember when. A wave of sadness hit him and a grimace came across his features instead of that lovable grin. Memorys floated around in his mind freely, not kept under their usual trap. Quickly, he swam to the shore and lay down in the sun, staring blankly at the ground, seeming to completely forgot about Dapplefur..."You useless lump!" A large brown she-cat yelled to an extremely small orange kitten. The kit was cringing in a corner, looking at his mother with startling green eyes, "You could've hurt Oakkit, you and your idiot temper! And now, his mother wants to make me pay for what you did!" the brown she-cat exclaimed wildly pacing back and forth in front of the kit. The other queens watched with disdain upon the small orange figure known as Sunkit. Probably glad that his mother was showing sense to the unusual kit. For a moment, Sunfire came back to the present time, looking around him, almost as if his mother really was there. He snapped back into his blank stare, forging through another unwanted memory..."SUNPAW!!!" A brown/ginger kit called the name of his friend looking behind trees. The two friends were playing hide and go seek. No answer came. Finally Oakpaw looking behind another tree and looked down smiling at the sight. A very, very small tom was pouncing back and forth doing odd moves, "What are you doing, Sunpaw?" The tom stopped immediatley and went into his I-don't-want-to-talk-about-it mood, "Nothing," he murmured. "Dapplefur?" he said in a soft amazed voice. Where was he? Why was he thinking back. For a moment, Sunfire was scared. Had he cried, had he showed emotion? Sunfire quickly got up and blinked furiously, shutting back all the memories. His face took on the determined, ferocious look again.

Dapplefur screamed and fell backward into the water. She went under and she couldn't see. She struggled to the surface. She looked wildly around for Sunfire. The she saw him swimming to shore. She started swimming toward shore. As she found her footing she padded over to where Sunfire was. She realized that he had the same look that she had when she was remembering painful memories. She layed down next to him. Then she started to lick him slowly as she would one of her kits. She hoped she was helping him through the painful, terrible memory. Then she heard her name quietly being called. She saw Sunfire move her head toward her. Then he went back into the memory he was in. Sunfire shot up onto his feet. There was a fierce look in his eye. "Sunfire? It's ok, I'm here. I'm here." Dapplefur said in a soothing voice. She didn't know what to do next. "Do you want to get back in the water? That might help. Or do you want to go hunting or go back to the camp?"

The orange tom rose shakily to his feet, and looked at her, "Uh, how bout we just sit here for a while?" he asked, looking at the ground. Oh boy was he acting like an idiot. Your first time with someone you kinda like. Wait, do I like her? Sunfire asked himself. He felt embarrsed. The warrior kept his eyes on the ground.
