Isilme -- surprise? She's been missing him and needs someone to talk to.

I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go, that I just want you to know"

The tortiouseshell female moved slowly through the dark, treading from shadow to shadow to keep from being seen. She'd made it this far. From Stormclan territory to the Pond of Truce. Again. Why did she keep coming back. She knew she shouldn't. She knew she should stop. but . . . here she was . . . again . . . . but not for the normal reason. Her gaze didn't sweep the area for him. Her ears didn't perk at the lightest sound with hope. No. She was far to distracted this time.
Far to distressed.
She moved quietly towards the tree, the tree they'd met at so many times before, abet met unintentionally. She slowly let herself lower to the ground, curling up with her sleek tail snug over her paws, keeping her wrapped in a tiny ball. She dare not cry though, there'd be no point in that, in crying. No point at all. She quivered softly, eyes closing briefly as she lay her muzzle over her paws. Her self-esteem had dropped greatly, her joy and pride in being a clan-cat and fallen even further. Her faith in herself had suffered the most. What type of cat was she to not just get caught up on an outside male, but to go as far as to get drawn in by his pretty words . . . to have his kit. A kit who'd seemed to disappear from the world as well lately. She knew she shouldn't expect anything less. Her little sky-tom was growing up, and soon he'd be a warrior himself . . . and she'd have less purpose to stick around.
Stick around.
That was the problem she was finding she had. She didn't seem to feel the desire to stick close to her clan anymore. She didn't feel connected, or part of it, and more than not, now adays, Swallowbreeze was wondering why she was still part of the clan. Why she hadn't already left and run off. Why she was still trying.
Finally, a tear.
It fell slowly, caressing the fur of her cheek, slicking the already sleek fur down, and instantly more followed, until the pretty female was crying quietly to herself, curled up into a ball. What a failure she was. Here she was, crying, because her life was in shambles, and she couldn't trust herself to be true to her clan anymore. She could barely trust herself to be true to Starclan. Starclan. Could they even really care about her, about any of the other cats. If they did, why would it be so bad for two cats to fall in love, even if they were from different clans. That is what she truly wanted to know. Why couldn't she be happy with the tom she cared for. Why must the fact they had a kit be such a bad thing!
Did he love her?
Her mind finally trailed to the ivory tom she was slowly, but surely, keeping an eye out for, hoping she'd see him close by eventually, even as she wanted to turn away and hide because of the tears. The tears that still flowed freely. What did he really think of her. Did he notice her not being around. Did he care where she was? Would he care now if he saw her crying, or would he turn and leave. Did he really care at all, or was she just another tail to catch.
No, not him.
She couldn't think that. Sh couldn't believe that it might be true that she was just another female to him. Nothing important. Oh, where was he. She needed to see him now more than ever. Desperately so even . . . Just to know that someone might be there to listen, to give her a shoulder to lean on, a side to cuddle into, and a heart to fill. Her eyes closed softly as she shivered against the cold of the evening, hiding in the shadows so no one else might see her, letting herself wallow in the despair, crying softly as she did so. What was she do with herself. What was she to do with her life.

A reason to start over new
And the reason is you"
