Tidalwave winced as Shadowcross began limping again. He quickly padded to her side, supporting her once more. "Easy, wait for me next time" he mewed "I don't want you getting worse again,"

Shadowcross tried not to look as embarrassed as she felt.
"Sorry," she muttered. "I'll try to be more careful." Her fur still felt hot, and she had a hard time staying so close to Tidalwave without losing her composure. She supposed they were... together now. Weren't they? She knew he loved her, and she loved him. But what now? She could barely stand the Clan inferring (let alone knowing) the truth. And what was the truth? Were they... mates? Well, probably not in the literal sense. Shadowcross only grew more embarrassed at this thought.

"It's alright" Tidalwave mewed with a smile. "I know you don't want to be stuck in camp any longer than neccessary" he added "so I want to make sure that doesn't happen."
He wondered what would happen once Shadowcross could return to regular duties. He wondered if she would still want to spend time with him or would she avoid him so she didn't have to deal with all the gossip. He hoped it was the former.

Shadowcross glanced at Tidalwave nervously and managed to say, "Thanks." Besides that, though, she wasn't sure she had anything to say. Her thoughts were so wrapped up in the future, what their relationship would entail, and all the confusions and insecurities that came with change she couldn't even think straight. This put the she-cat into a pensive mood, which always made her snappish, and she was aware of that. So Shadowcross did her best to keep her mouth shut and tried to force her thoughts into another direction---quite unsuccessfully, unfortunately.

Tidalwave noticed that Shadowcross was being very quiet today. It wasn't unusual for her to be quiet but she was usually more talkative on their walks together. He decided to ask the she-cat what was on her mind, and hoped she wouldn't be upset. "Whats on your mind, beautiful?" he asked.

"Nothing," Shadowcross meowed immediately, the word slipping out her mouth forcefully, as if she were trying to defend herself. The she-cat took a deep breath and shook her head. She figured that if she were going to ever be honest, it might as well be to the cat she loved.
"It's just..." The words came with a great deal of difficulty, and Shadowcross had to swallow several times before she blurted out, "I'm just feeling really insecure, you know? I've never felt this way before and I'm unsure about what will happen and I just don't really know what to feel, or what to think..." She looked down at her paws, her face flaming with embarrassment.

Tidalwave listened as the she-cat spoke, a little surprised at what she said. "You don't need to feel insecure" he mewed "you're beautiful, sweet and tough. You're perfect and I love you." He nuzzled Shadowcross, placing an affectionate lick on her muzzle. "I don't know what will happen but I hope that it involves us being mates" he said, his cheeks heating.

Shadowcross felt hot down to the roots of her fur. She stared at her paws self-consciously, a tiny smile forming at the edge of her mouth.
"I... I'd like that," she murmured softly, not knowing what else to say and feeling like she didn't really have to say anything. Shadowcross was still worried about what would happen in the future. She had never had a mate before, obviously, and she was scared of the unknown. But many other cats had had mates. She would not be the first. And she figured it was something that she would fall into naturally, like motherhood. Her mother had always said that she had not expected to take to mothering at first, but it just sort of worked out when it needed to. Hopefully being with Tidalwave... would be more or less the same. Shadowcross looked up at him shyly, wanting more than ever to get out of the camp and spend time with him far away from prying eyes.

Tidalwave lit up at her words. He had the world's biggest smile on his face, or at least he thought so. He couldn't believe she wanted him as her mate.
"I love you" he said, placing a lick on her maw. At this point he didn't care who saw, he was too happy.
