| Swiftstream kept a close eye on where she placed her paws, not wanting to trip. Tripping would likely be fatal this high up. | |

| Riverstar followed close behind, though he purposefully moved several tail lengths to the side so that whatever rocks he kicked down wouldn’t hurt his mate. | |

| Her frown deepened but she didn’t push, rising to her paws and starting to make her way down the mountainside in the early morning light. | |

| He shook his head a few times, indicating he wasn’t quite ready to talk about whatever had happened in there to make him that way. Instead, he flicked his head down towards the bottom of the slope, the tom ready to return home. | |

| Swiftstream was instantly awake when she saw the tears in his eyes, sitting up with a worried frown. “Riverfl- star? What’s wrong?” | |

| Riverstar forced himself to make a slight smile down at Swiftstream, the Tom’s dark blue eyes welling up with tears. | |

| Swiftstream reluctantly awoke with much grumbling, swatting at his paw as she forced her eyes open. | |

| When Riverstar emerged the next morning, the tom looked shellshocked as he emerged from the darkness, prodding Swiftstream with a paw silently. | |

| Swiftstream settles herself on the stone and dozed through the night, the ground too uncomfortable for her to truly sleep. | |

| “I️ was hoping an ‘I️ love you’ would be in there somewhere.” Riverflight purred, rolling his eyes in feigned annoyance as he turned towards the tunnel, padding deeper and mewling “I️ love you, Swiftstream!” The tom Then disappeared into the darkness, where he remained for the rest of the night. | |

| Swiftstream snorted but obliged, giving a soft purr as she spoke his name, “Riverflight.” | |

| Riverflight offered Swiftstream a soft smile in the dying light. “Want to say my name one last time?” The tom purred teasingly, returning the lick she had given him. | |

| Swiftstream nodded. By this point it was fully dark. She gave him a lick to the muzzle and settled herself off to the side of the tunnel, just out of the wind. | |

| “Of course,” Riverflight mewed, glancing into the darkness of the cave. “I️ have to go the rest of the way alone.” | |

| “Only just far enough to get out of the wind,” Swiftstream said firmly. “I am not a medicine cat, nor am I coming here to receive nine lives, nor am I a leader.” | |

| Riverflight nodded, looking over at the randomly stacked rocks and boulders that created a small cave on the summit. “You should come in too, at least to hide from the wind out here.” The harsh mountain wind was piercing the fur of both cats and making Riverflight shiver. | |

| Swiftstream returned the kiss but didn’t let it go on for long, looking up at the darkening sky. “We’ll have to wait a little before you can go in.” | |

| Unfortunately, it was unlikely that they would find much in the way of prey on the chilly, barren, windswept mountaintop, but finally, they had arrived. Riverflight turned to Swiftstream, and despite being tired he immediately pressed his muzzle to hers in a happy kiss when they both reached the summit. | |

| Swiftstream was exhausted and hungry by this point, barely managing to keep moving. | |

| Riverflight was grateful they had found the path, as it made progress much easier. By the time the sun began to set they had almost reached the summit. | |

| Eventually, Riverflight began the climb once more, and now that Swiftstream had stopped to wait he got back up to her quickly. | |

| Swiftstream waited worriedly for her mate to recover and come back up to her. | |

| Riverflight had his head down, but he lifted his tail to indicate he was alright. He just needed a minute to recover himself, The tom dizzy as he looked down between his paws. | |

| Swiftstream froze with terror when her mate went skidding downthe mountainside and swayed a little on her paws with relief when he didn’t go far. | |
