IC: Summerheart was tired of being different. She was tired of being wrong. She was tired of not being loved. She was tired of not being cared for. She was tired of being tired. She was tired of being tired of everything. She was walking on the ledge of the stony gorge. She heard the waves crashing against the walls. Grass sprouted out of the cracks of the rocky edge. The line her paws were padding on was about two mouse-lengths wide. She stopped when she reached a bush by the edge, and sat down, staring at the sky. The sky was beautiful, the last beautiful thing Summerheart would see. The clouds had turned pink, and the sky surrounding the clouds was orange. The horizon was a blue-purple color. Summerheart thought about her litter mates. She thought about her kin. She thought about her once-love. It was all over now. Once she jumped there'd be nothing to worry about. She shut her eyes tightly, and took in one last breath. She would jump. She would put the past behind her. She would focus on the present. She would think about the future. She would be happy.

(My cat will be Skyleap)
Skyleap walked around and his ears twitched. He thought he heard something so he looked over it was just the waves. He saw Summerheart and wondered what she was up too. He took a deep breath and walked over.
-
Summerheart was about to leap of the edge, but instead opened her eyes and perked her ears. She glanced to the left and saw the tom.
"H-hi..." Summerheart started to say. -
"Enjoying the view?" He asked walking over to her. He sat next to her side and smiled a little
-
"Yeah... It's quite beautiful." Summerheart meowed softly, as she slyly glanced over at Skyleap. Happiness took over the storm of depression in her eyes. She couldn't help but smile. "How'd you find me here?"
-
I was just walking and saw you by the water" he said "I thought I might come over and hang out with you" he mewed and slightly sat closer to her.
-
"Oh... OK..." -Summerheart said shyly, and stared at her paws. She felt Skyleap's tail wrap around hers, and she let her tail do the same. She looked over at Skyleap, who was staring at her the whole time. The sun glazed his azure eyes with a bright shimmer. She stared right into his eyes and warmly smiled. "So... what's up? I've never seen you in WindClan camp before." -Summerheart stated, staring at Skyleap kindly and waited for a response.
-
"Most cats don't notice me cause I'm in the nursery playing with the kits" he said "and nothing really just came out here and I'm kinda glad Im getting to hang out with you" he said.
-
"Oh. Well, that's sweet of you. D-did you know what I was doing... before you stopped me...?" Summerheart asked, looking at her paws again. She didn't want Skyleap to know she was just about to commit suicide.
-
"Staring at the sky right?" He said.
-
"R-right... I was staring at the sky." Summerheart said, trying to sound as casual as possible. "You don't get to see many sunsets as gorgeous as this during new-leaf." Summerheart felt her heart get warm, and a lump formed in her throat from embarrassment. She slowly scooted a couple mouse-lengths over towards Skyleap, and rested her head on his shoulder and smiled at the sunset setting over the gorge.
-
He blushed slightly and watched it with her.
-
Summerheart was quiet until the sun drowned behind the gorge, and she looked up at Skyleap's face which was staring at the stars. Summerheart sat there for a few minutes, pretending to be amused by the sky scattered with stars. She nudged Skyleap lightly with her paw. "Hey, I'm gonna go head back to camp, want to walk with me there?" Summerheart asked Skyleap softly.
-
He nodded getting up and stayed close to her "shall I lead?" He asked
-
"If you wish." Summerheart meowed, as she trailed along behind Skyleap. She stepped over roots, and squeezed through bushes. She leaped over ponds and entered through the entrance of camp with Skyleap by her side. They padded into the warriors' den and curled up in beds of moss. Skyleap let Summerheart rest her head on his upper flank. She slowly closed her eyes and started to dream of that dusk.
-
OOC: I have to go ;3 I'll reply to your post tomorrow morning. G'night.

(K night)
-
Summerheart awoke from her deep slumber. Her face was still rested on the upper part of Skyleap's flank. She smiled when she saw him sleeping. He's adorable when he's asleep... Summerheart thought to herself. She could hear the other warriors in the den breathing. She looked at the entrance of the den, it looked like the sun was starting to rise. Maybe I don't have to jump. Maybe Skyleap will make me happy. Maybe I can finally enjoy life. She thought, before she was about to run out of the den, exit camp, and go to the gorge. She missed last night, her heart felt so warm, and it felt like her smile was permanent.
-
Skyleap woke up and looked around. He smiled seeing Summerheart still there. "Morning" he whispered but yawned a little.
-
"Good morning, Skyleap. How's the prey running?" Summerheart smiled warmly at Skyleap, staring into his eyes.
