Woollycloud felt a tugging in his chest. Something that told him to return, if just for a moment. He stood, far from home and standing right in the spot that he ran from so long ago.
He wondered if things had changed since then. He sniffed at the wooden fence. Those smells brought memories. Sweet cut grass and beautifully arranged flowers brushed his nose, reminding him of simpler times. When he was young and would curl up next to his two-legs. He would be given food neatly placed in a bowl, but not comparable in that wild taste that prey gives. The tom was being careful. He couldn't be seen. He found an opening and slid through, ducking into the flowers. His large stature was difficult to hide, but he managed to suck in his belly and push himself into the dirt. He didn't want to give them some sense of false hope that he had returned after so many moons. He wished he could count them. He used to count the days, but somewhere along the line he just lost track.
His ears pricked as he heard the familiar click of the door. He took a deep breath, welcoming the warm scent of two-leg food for a split second. He felt his heart flutter. Somewhere deep in his heart, he missed all of that.

(I wont be able to put her up on the thread until tomorrow because I dont have access to my laptop, but I'll still RP her. Are we doing the idea where they lived together or did his twoleg get her when he left?)
Olivia had been enjoying the peaceful morning as she always did, snoozing and watching the birds fluttering from the window as she waited for her twoleg to open the door indicating she was free to roam the garden. She rubbed against the humans leg with a purr before she strolled out and onto the grass, the cool touch of it ran through her pads and she gave a little hop in excitement. The she-cat always loved being out in the fresh air, here she was able to do as she pleased but for her own safety she never strayed too far.
Looking around at the flowers surrounding the perimeter of the fence her eyes glowed, she saw these same flowers every day but they always brought her joy their fragrant flowery smells flowing around her. With graceful steps she walked to a particularly sunny spot and sat down, her small frame less like most kittypets, she was not round but instead lean with a soft touch.

(we can go with the first idea ^.^)
He lifted his head just enough to reveal his light amber gaze. He caught a glimpse of that familiar pelt brushing past the door and his breath caught in his throat. He didn't completely stop thinking of Olivia when he moved to SpringClan, but he had to admit, he didn't think of her as much as he used to. He left without word. Woollycloud was just some naive kittypet that wandered too far from home and was found by a patrol. His red collar and chiming bell was what gave him away, and not to mention he was a little more weighty than his housemate.
They were much younger then. He always found it amusing to see how far he could push her, to see how annoyed he could make her. It might have earned him a slap between the ears a couple times, but he genuinely enjoyed her company. Kits in the clan played a lot differently than they did. They had toy mice, and the outside cats had balls of moss to practice hunting.
The mask-and-mantle tom watched her eyes weave through the flowers. She was getting closer. He ducked again, taking steps back. He needed to leave before she saw him. Back out the way he came in. Though his entrance didn't make a great exit as his tail hit the post behind him, creating an alarming thud to sound in the air.

Lifting a paw and swiping it gently over a white ear Olivia let out a content sigh, she had no need to groom her thick white pelt as it very rarely got dirty but out of boredom she found her paw moving on it's own. She lowered her paw delicately back to the ground listening to the bird song around her only for it to be disturbed by a thud beside the fence, the sound caused her to jump to her feet, her pelt puffed out so she looked twice her size and her pale brown gaze was locked on the spot in which the noise came.
"Whose there?!" Her voice was a bit shaky but she managed to put some force behind her words, ever since Cookie her once housemate and dearest friend had vanished Olivia had been jumpy when strange things happened in the garden. She never did find out what had happened to the tom all those moons ago, they were both young then and with his leaving so did a part of her, not knowing whether he had been taken or even if he was still alive made her more cautious in her own home then she should need to be.

Woollycloud clenched his jaws as he knew he had been caught. The tom rose from his position, his muscles feeling as if he had been there all day. "It's me," he reached out with a gentle voice. There was saddened sense about it and it was deeper than it used to be. His hindquarters still pressed against the fence. His heart felt as if it was ready to leap out of his chest with the mixture of emotion. He had adrenaline running through his veins, as well as fear. He missed her for so long. She was his friend, probably his best friend.
"Olivia," he sounded as if his breath was stolen from his lungs. She looked well. She was definitely healthy, while he probably had bits of dirt stuck to his pelt. He could feel the heat rising to his cheeks. "It's been too long."

Olivia waited and when the voice sounded she took a step back tilting her head to the side, disbelief rushed through her until the tom stood up revealing himself. In an instant her soft demeanor turned, she flattened her ears and dug her claws into the dirt beneath her as he spoke. She had missed him so much and with each passing day she often thought that if she were to see him again that she would be happy but she had been wrong, anger and frustration welled up in its place all wrapped together by confusion. "C-cookie?" It had been over a moon since she had let the name slip past her lips and now it felt weird to say it aloud, even more so now that the owner of said name was only a few tail lengths away from her.

When he had dreamed about the moment he would see her again, he imagined it differently. They were supposed to be happy and embrace each other and share stories about what the other missed. This wasn't like that at all. He could practically feel the anger in the air mixing with awkward silences as they fought for words. The deputy felt defeated, in a way.
Woollycloud nodded slowly. It had been a very long time since he heard the name. After he had been welcomed as an apprentice, Shadedstar gave him the name Woollypaw for his thick coat. It was tough to let go of. They ripped the red woven collar right off his neck, his kittypet name engraved in the metallic piece that dangled from it. In a way, he missed being called Cookie. Especially when his little twoleg girl said it. "Actually, that's not my name anymore," he told her, trying a smile. "I'm called Woollycloud, now."

Olivia's eyes grew a little wider as he mentioned his new name, she took a few cautious steps toward the Tom and looked him over, he looked the same but somehow different now and she wasn't sure how to take it. " where have you been?" The question came out tense, she saw him trying to smile but did not return it.
She needed answers, he had abandoned her. She believed for so long he would never have just left without saying anything, but by the looks of it that is exactly what he had done. Her anger was beginning to dwindle and now it was all she could do to fight back the tears welling in her eyes.
Post by dualwielding on Aug 1, 2019 10:33:43 GMT -5
Seeing her eyes become wet with tears sent a painful jab right in his chest. Woollycloud never meant her any harm. He actually figured she might be better off without him in the house. She would have all of their owners' attention without having to fight for the spotlight.
"I've been in the mountains," he confessed, feeling his ears droop. "There's a group of cats that call themselves SpringClan. And it's amazing, Olivia. They are free to roam wherever and whenever and they are strong and earn everything they have." As he went on, his voice seemed to grow more at ease. "It's everything a cat should know."

Olivia shook her head as if she didn't want to hear what he was saying, she didn't want to believe it was true. The tears promising to fall from her eyes began to roll one at a time, wetting the fur on her cheeks. "If it's so great then why are you here?" Her snowy pelt was shaking as the muscles beneath began to quiver. "Are you going to come back home?" A small gleam of hope flashed through her eyes through the wetness.

Hearing Olivia ask that question was probably the worst of all, and seeing her body begin to shake with overflowing emotion pained him. Woollycloud couldn't help himself. The large tom reached forward to touch his nose to her cheek. "I don't know…" he told her, unsure of himself. What he really meant was no. He wasn't going back. "I've been out there too long. They won't want me." He took a moment to draw in her scent. She was soft, warm, and carried that sweet aroma he still missed. He could feel his cheek become wet with her tears, but he didn't mind it. He exhaled gently before pulling away. "I have too much responsibility now."

Olivia knew what he meant, his answer had been unsure but in his tone and his eyes alone she could tell he would not be returning home. She forced herself to remain in place as he rushed forward and touched her cheek, drawing in his scent in Hope's of finding comfort in it, but all she got was the scent of mountains and a mixture of strange cats. His next words stalled her though, she didn't care if the twoleg wanted him. "What about me?" She mowed pulling away from his touch just enough to let her gaze fall on his.

He had an idea. Woollycloud didn't want to leave here without her, and he couldn't stay there. Could he really ask her to do such a thing? To leave with him? Realistically, he had just up and left everything he knew and they had spent moons apart. She may not be the same cat he used to know, just like he wasn't who she once did. And on the other hand, clan life wasn't anything like the soft and comfortable world a kittypet knew. The wild offered freedom, but with it came starvation, injury, death and loss. "Do you want to see it?" He asked suddenly. Maybe he could at least show her what he fell in love with outside the fence.

The white she-cat had not been prepared for what Woolycloud would ask, and when the question finally registered in her mind she took another step back putting a slightly wider distance between them. Something unreadable flashed in her pale brown eyes and quick as a rabbit one of her forepaws was in the air and swatting down across his ear, it wasn't a harsh blow, but enough to cause a sting. "Do I want to see the place that's obviously more important to you than I am?" A spark of adrenaline rushed through her and she spoke again before he could open his mouth. "You were my best friend, and you made me believe I'd lost you forever! How would you have felt if I had just vanished one day?!" The volume of her voice rose steadily as she began to lose control of her emotions again, he was the one cat who knew how to push her buttons and get a reaction out of her, the only one who she could not hold herself back with.

Flinching, Woollycloud felt himself pull back quickly and bump the fence once again. There was a bit of a stinging in his ear, but it was nothing he couldn't handle after living among wild cats. He could forgive her for it, but it startled him. His wide eyes glanced at the door behind her. "Do you want them to come out here?" He hissed in a low voice. If they heard her meows of distress, he didn't doubt one would come rushing out to check on her. "It was never more important. I was young and stupid, and I found something new and exciting. But can you blame me? If I told you about it do you really think you would let me go willingly?"

Olivia looked back at the door, part of her wanted them to rush out but she knew if they did he would run and she may never see him again so she lowered her voice. "Of course I wouldnt have let you go, at least not alone." The tone in her voice said it all, if he had asked her too she would have followed him then, willingly and without question. As much as she enjoyed the life they had here together, the best part was that she had him there with her and since he left nothing had been the same, she no longer spoke to any of their old friends and she had spent the better part of her days looking out into the wild beyond the fence.

Woollycloud blinked, visibly surprised. He never thought of her going that far willingly. He was lost for words, his jaw just hung open and a silence was in the air. He glanced down at his paws, as if searching for something that he could say to make the situation better. "I…" he let out a breath. "I didn't think you would want to leave. But I didn't intend to never come back. I just wanted to look beyond the fence."

Olivia shook her head softly and let out a sigh. "That's what happens when you dont think fuzz-brain."she looked up at him her brown eyes glittering, inside she felt defeated but she wouldnt let him see it. "I trusted you before and when you left I wanted to believe it had not been your choice, that you had been taken or even killed. I wanted that because even after all this time you remained the same in my eyes, my best friend who only met an unfortunate end." She paused only for a moment before she spoke again, willing herself on to tell him how she was feeling all anger aside.
"What you have told me though has changed that though, I want to continue to trust you, for things to be like they were, but I'm scared to. I dont know what all happened after you left, I dont understand why you didn't return even after you found this new home... I would like to though, not for you but for myself. Perhaps knowing what has lead you heart to remain there will help me to understand and finally ease some of the pain I have been feeling."
Olivia took a small step closer to Woolycloud when she finished speaking, a mixture of cation and fear in her eyes. She was still unsure of all of it but she knew this would be the only way she would fully understand everything he spoke of.

He couldn't help but snicker. It would have been better for her if he were fed to the crows, but he couldn't understand why she would wish that on him. Perhaps he just didn't get the way she felt. He couldn't quite place what he thought about it. "You got your wish in a way. The old me died a long time ago." His eyes softened as she neared. "I stayed there because it felt like a home I've been missing. They don't keep you locked up, you don't have to ask permission to go outside. And there's so many other cats out there. But I couldn't come back here. My clan expects loyalty from me. Being here now would be frowned upon."

Olivia nodded, and her gaze faltered for a moment but soon settled on him once more. "I want to see it." She mewed softly. "I want to see what changed you, what took you from me." She squared her small shoulders to hide the fear that was creeping up inside of her at what she was doing. Her thick white pelt began to glow softly as the suns light rested on it and her eyes stayed steady as she had made up her mind, he would take her with him or she would follow behind on her own but either way she was going. "Don't think this means I have forgiven you though, I'm still angry. I'm simply trying to put myself in your paws, maybe then I will understand better." She moved her paws so she was standing beside him, her pelt just almost close enough to brush his but not quite.
