Starfleck started to tremble a bit as those eyes continued to bore themselves. She would have to face him sooner or later, but how would he greet her?
“Who are you?” His voice was soft and deep alike. A tone that made her heart skip a beat for no reason.
“My name is Sta -” Starfleck stopped herself. It was a dangerous risk of saying her name to a strange cat.
“Sta?” A quiet chuckle left his lips. “That’s a strange name to have.”
The planks creaked as he stretched, followed by a wide yawn that filled the silence.
“Aren’t you going to turn around?” Confusion tinged his voice. “It’s both confusing and rude, you know.”
With no escape left, Starfleck slowly turned to face him. Her heart sank. She berated herself for being so clumsy - she truly wished she had stayed in ThunderClan.
