Falconwing stood up and stretched, his back popping. It ached slightly, causing the tom to groan slightly. He stretched, hissing through gritted teeth. Sure, the fox attack was long ago, but having a permanent back problem doesn't go away. Hence permanent. But, the tabby would have to make do.
Falconwing padded over to the medicine cat's den, his ears perked. He hadn't seen Brightflame in a long time. Brightflame and Falconwing had this...special tie together. Some other cats frowned upon their relationship.
With a small meow, Falconwing called into the den to see if his medicine cat was in it.

Brightflame pawed delicately through the poppy seeds, "99998, 99999, 100000." He sighed, happy that he had finished counting. Lately he had been so bored that he took every opportunity to do something, even if it was menial tasks like counting poppy seeds. His ears pricked when he heard a voice, "Falcon!!!" He squeaked, racing out of the herb store and tackling the larger tom, "Where have you been!? Is it your back? Is it acting up again? I knew I should've kept you here longer..."
(Awwwww the song is so cute!!!!)

"Love, it's fine. You did the best you could," Falconwing sighed, feeling better that he at least caught a glimpse of Brightflame. He didn't know why he was so...drawn to the other tom. Was it his pelt, or handsome face, or his personality? Falconwing liked him through and through. There wasn't a favorite part of him that he enjoyed. With a purr, Falconwing squirmed under Brightflame, giving him a lick on the nose.
"Besides, do you think I'm that shallow to just come in here for my back? Brightflame, I came here to see you. I thought that I've been...rather distant lately. I missed you," the tom nuzzled the medicine cat, shivering in delight.

(Gettin' down and funkay! XD JK)
Brightflame looked away, climbing off, "Yeah...I know...I've just been lonely I guess...I really missed you..." He looked up, his eyes filled with...hurt? "I mean how hard is it for you to come visit me!? It's not like visiting another clan for Cloudclan's sake! I'm only a few pawsteps away! I wait and wait and wait and you never come! Do you get how badly it hurts? Knowing that people only visit when they need something from you? Knowing that you don't have any true friends? Finally finding one person who you think actually cares and then having them abandon you like everyone else you've ever cared about!? You're just like...like..." He looked away, hiding his tear filled eyes.
(You made him think of Blazefoot Falconwing!!! OOOH GODS THE WORLD IS GONNA END!!!)

[Oh god, who's Blazefoot. I feel so...behiiiiiiiiiiiiiind.]
Falconwing became startled. What had set Brightflame off. Pity glistened in his eyes as he watched him get off and then start to tear up.
"Whoa, I'm sorry. I know how that feels, to be used and such. And come on, you have friends. I'm sorry, it's just I get so caught up in things..." It was a lame excuse. Falconwing pushed himself up with a slight grunt and slithered behind Brightflame. He felt horrible for making Brightflame hurt. The tabby brushed up beside the silver tom and twined tails, rubbing his head against Brightflame's shoulder.
"Who am I like?" Was there another person? Had Brightflame been seeing another, while Falconwing was gone? A small flicker of jealous rose, but Falconwing had to push it down, swallowing the guilt.

(Brightflame's/my BFF when he was an apprentice/warrior. They did everything together and one day he just...disappeared...He still feels hurt about it.)
Brightflame stared down at the ground, shaking, "I miss him...I really really miss him..." He squeezed his eyes shut, "I want my Blaze back! I want to go back to when we would do everything together! Hunt, sleep, train, annoy clanmates...I...I wasn't lonely back then...but all of my friends and even my mate..they all just...disappeared...one by one...I never saw them again..." He looked up, "I was completely alone until I found you...and then...I was alone again...I don't know if I should trust you anymore..." He whimpered.

[Don't make me tear up, man. Stahp, stahp it.]
Falconwing slightly pulled away, clearly hurt by the other tom's words.
"B-Brightflame...I thought you lo-...I didn't think you truly felt that way," Falconwing pulled away slightly, biting his lower lip to stop it from shaking. Suddenly, the tabby felt weak. Not physically, but mentally. In his younger days, the tom would think that the world was his. But now, to have it all ripped away from him...
"Please, don't do this to me. I wish I could have made a visit more often...but, things are getting rough in the clan. Brightflame-" Falconwing's normaly masculine voice came to a squeak as he struggled to keep the heartfelt tears away. He was practically begging.

(Srsly tho. It's been like two years. I was crying. It was painful.)
Brightflame looked up, instantly regretting what he said, "Oh...F-Falcon...I didn't mean it like that...I just..." He looked down, "You remind me of him, you know? Both of you...strong, good warriors, a bit cocky but not bad about it, a bit mischievous, good with the ladies, something I never was...but most of all...you guys both cared for me..." He sighed, "I found out that I couldn't bring myself to hurt another cat...sure I could do the moves perfectly, but I just couldn't harm them...Blaze and you both stuck with me, protecting me...and...I guess you two are so similar...I was scared you would leave too..."
(CRAI CRAI GOSHDARNIT)

[AWwww...]
Falconwing sighed, lowering his head. Thank Cloudclan.
"I would never leave you. I'm always here, even if you don't see me," Falconwing gave a slightly relieved purr. His breath was shakey, but he managed to still his heartbeat. It scared him to see Brightflame in that state. He hated it when he was distressed.
[It's not much, sorry.]

Bright sighed and coddled into Falcon's side, nuzzling the soft fur, "How about I make it up to you? I'll do anything, one request. A favor." He said, grinning. "Go ahead, ask. One thing."

[OhMyGodSoup]
"That you'll never say that you doubt your trust for me," Falconwing's eyes grew distant as he leaned slightly against Brightflame. His entire life was now centered around Brightfalme and if he lost him...
The tom purred, slightly tired from the amount of distress that the medicine cat had put him in. A bit ironic, that a med cat is supposed to make his patients feel better, but instead the opposite happened.

Brightflame purred and licked Falconwing's cheek, "Only if you promise not to abandon me." He said softly, "I'm so sorry I made you worry...I...I should've just kept it to myself. Part of my job needs me to make sure emotions don't get in the way of my or anyone else's life. I failed at that, and I'm sorry..." He bit his lip and finally decided to ask a question that had been bugging him lately, "So, erm...how's you mate? Is she well? I assume she's healthy, seeing as she hasn't come to see me."

Falconwing nodded, but turned his head slightly at Brightflame's last question.
"I haven't seen Silverfrost in a long time, Brightflame. I miss her terrible. This is just like Seabreeze all over again. Have-...have you seen her in Cloudclan?" Falconwing lowered his voice to a whisper, the only sounds were his heart thumping against his chest and Brightflame's voice.

(crap i don't remember if i have or not!!!!!!)
Brightflame just sighed, "Falconwing, I think the best thing to do right now would be to not worry about it. Besides, even if she is...gone...you'll find someone else! You're good with she-cats, it won't be hard." He said as reassuringly as he could.

[I'm gettttting ooooooooooooooooooooold.]
"I don't know. Someone like that...like them, you just can't find. Besides, I have you," Flaconwing gave a troubled sigh, feeling warm that Brightflame attempted to comfort him.
[Sorry, bro, I'm crying because of a season finale of this one show. I don't feel that up to it.]
