A few things you need to know:

1) Hollyleaf and Breezepelt are in no way related. Squirrelflight is the Hollyleaf, Jayfeather and Lionblaze's real mother.

2) Flames are allowed, but no three page-equaling word documents, okay?

3) Most of my chapters are short. I'm trying to improve.

4) If I don't update, it's because I'm really tied up with school, or I have major writer's block. I get it a lot.

5) Cliffies Rule!

6) Even though most of the chapters are called names by Taylor Swift, it's not a Songfic.

7) Please Review. Reviews are what inspire me to write. If I don't get enough, I will stop writing.

8) Enjoy!

Chapter One- Picture to Burn

HPOV- Hollyleaf's point of view

I wrenched my eyes open, blinking in the bright sunlight through the brambles of the Warrior's den.
"Hollyleaf!" Squirrelflight barked. "Just because you're my kit doesn't mean I let you off easy! How many times do I have to tell youyou're hunting?" Stretching my back, I strutted out of the den.

"Hi, Milkcloud. Whatcha doing here? Shouldn't you be in RiverClan?" The she-cat turned around.
"Oh, Hi, Hollyleaf. Troutstream has Greencough, but we've run out of catmint. I'm just asking Jayfeather for some." The blind cat trotted out of the den.
"Here you are, Milkcloud." The grey tom had taken charge of ThunderClan's herbs since his mentor and aunt, Leafpool, had joined the ranks of StarClan due to a fight with ShadowClan. I mean, what cat attacks a Medicine cat? Scorchfur. He crept up on her from behind, and ripped out her throat. Squirrelflight had barely gotten over it.

"Lionblaze and I will take the Ancient Oak. Mousewhisker and Hollyleaf, you guys can go see if some stray rabbits are hanging around the WindClan border" Brackenfur said. Great. WindClan. Breezepelt.
"Come on, Hollyleaf, let's go!" Mousewhisker demanded.
"Okay, Okay, I'm coming!" I laughed.
"Race You!" He called out.
"Oh, you're on, Mousewhisker!"

We raced, neck and neck, to the Border. I pulled ahead just in time.
"Ha! Beat you, Mousewhisker!" He lowered his head in mock shame.
"Beaten by a she-cat!" He laughed. Suddenly, he raised his head and stared right into my eyes.
"Hollyleaf, we're friends, right?"
"Of course, Mousewhisker…" I scuffed my paws, and looked down. Where is this going to? He started moving closer and closer, until he was a whisker-length from her muzzle.
"Well… I was wondering if we could be more than just friends."

I was taken aback.
"Well, Mousewhisker, I'll have to see. I haven't really thought about getting a mate and having kits…" He nodded.
"Take as much time as you want. I don't mind." I nodded gratefully.
"Well, we better hunt." He nodded.

I spotted a rabbit not far in front of me. Dropping into the Hunter's Crouch, I began to stalk it. Just as I was about to pounce, A voice scared it off.
"Don't even try, Hollyleaf. Rabbits are WindClan's." Thank you, StarClan. Not! Breezepelt. You mangy piece of crow-food. Unable to contain my anger, I attacked him.

His surprise was an advantage, and not one I intended to slip away. I leapt underneath his stomach, and unsheathed my claws. Scoring them down his stomach, I almost missed Mousewhisker's cry.
"Hollyleaf? What are you doing?" He darted between us.
"Leave Breezepelt alone!" I reluctantly moved back onto our side of the border.
"Next time, don't go looking for fights!" Breezepelt yowled triumphantly.

"Oh, StarClan, I hate him." I muttered. Mousewhisker looked at me.
"Another thing we have in common." He brushed his muzzle against mine. Instead of flinching, like I would have a sunrise before, I stayed. Okay, StarClan…

That night, as I curled up in my nest, I felt his back press against me. I shifted uncomfortably. Is this what I want? To have Mousewhisker by my side as my mate?

I knew the answer straight away. No. I didn't want a mate. But how was I supposed to tell Mousewhisker that?
