Fern X Daisy: Fallen Hearts

Chapter 1: Grief of Heartbreak
Dustpelt walked up to Ferncloud, an awkward look in his amber eyes. "Ferncloud, can I talk to you?"

The gray flecked she-cat faced her mate. "What is Dustpelt?" She placed her tail on his dark brown tabby shoulder. Dustpelt flinched away, seeing the confusion in her green eyes.

"I don't have feelings for you anymore...." Dustpelt meowed. His voice had no emotion in it, not a tinge of sadness or regret. Ferncloud's eyes became an emerald pool of anger and depression.

"Really? You aren't even the slightest bit guilty about leaving me?! Do you even have a heart! If you do than it belongs to a fox! We've had three litters together and you have the nerve to leave me!" Her pale gray pelt was bristling.

"Well.. It's just that..." Dustpelt stammered. "I found someone else..."

"So you're leaving me for another she-cat!" Ferncloud hissed. "It's Sandstorm, isn't it?"

Dustpelt nodded. Sandstorm had recently left the clan leader for unknown causes. Now she knew why. Her ex-mate left the nursery.

Daisy rested her cream tail on Ferncloud's flecked shoulder. "Its okay. Spiderleg dumped me after one night... You should have heard him when I told him I was expecting!"

Ferncloud let out a mrrow of amusement at the queen's joke. Daisy was helping her feel better.
