Woah! I'm actually writing something that's my own idea for once xD! So as I said earlier for Pride Month I'd make a few one-shots of some of my ships in Warriors or ships that I find could work/are cute! Feel free to leave some if you like! This one will be Tallstar x Jake, a classic warriors ship that I do adore xD, hope you all enjoy 💙
****
Plotline: Since coming back to the clans, Tallstar made sure to meet Jake each night he could by the fence of Jake's home.

Tallstar smiled as he raced through the moor, the wind blowing through his black and white fur. It was only a quarter moon, so no medicine cats would be travelling to the Moonstone and no gathering. He did this since he came back, to meet the one who he felt truly understood him. Jake, a kittypet with the heart of a warrior. As he stood at the top of a hill, he remembered the day he and Jake 'said goodbye'.

Talltail's ears were flat as he looked across the moor, before turning his amber eyes to face the ginger tabby behind him, whose green eyes glimmered with sadness.

"Jake, you could come with me! You're strong and a good hunter! You could join WindClan!" Jake chuckled and shook his head.

"I'm afraid I can't do that Talltail...but I was glad to have met you," the flame coloured tom purred, nudging Talltail's cheek. "You gave me a life I could only dream of...I...I don't know what I'd do if I never met you..." Talltail flicked his long tail, before his eyes lit up.

"What if I met you here!? Each night, a quarter-moon!? Please..." The tom noticed blush tint Jake's cheeks as he smiled.

"Alright...I'll wait for you then."
~~~~
Tallstar smiled as he noticed that he was first, as he always was. Tallstar stood after sitting for a while. I should find something for him...but what? Looking around, the leader remembered some flowers around the outside of a den. He looked up. I still have some time before Jake should be able to get out! Turning to where he knew Twolegplace to be, he raced off.
><><><><
Unbeknownst to the black and white tom, a certain ginger tabby was pacing the garden of his den. He knew he would be meeting Tallstar soon, but he wanted it to be special. Maybe I could find something for him...? Prey? He shook his head.

"Tallstar's a leader...he wouldn't need prey. He said last time everything was fruitful anyway..." The tom swiped at the ground impatiently. He sneezed as the wind moved the scent of the flowers in his Twolegs garden to him. Stupid flowers...- wait! The tom smiled as he realised what his gift could be.
><><><><
Tallstar shook his pelt free of the leaves as he slinked through the bushes. Leaping up, he scrambled to get on the top of the fence and surveyed the area. He smiled as he saw the flowers he was looking for. Leaping down, he began to tug at the flowers, hissing in frustration as they wouldn't budge.

Come on you stupid buds! His ears went flat however as he heard a low growl. His amber eyes looked to the side as he faced a large dog, snarling back at him, and he felt his blood run cold. "Th...these your flowers then?" The dog barked and snapped at him, causing Tallstar to yowl in surprise and begin to run through the streets. He didn't know where he was going, only that he was going somewhere with a dog hard on his heels.
><><><><
Jake hummed as he walked across the fences to the flower bushes, his ears going back as he heard a loud yowl along with some barking. He'd recognise the yowl anywhere. Tallstar!! He ran across the fence before noticing his black and white furred friend as he ran ahead of a large dog.

Jake huffed and leapt down on the dogs head before pushing Tallstar, who looked to him in surprise.

"Jake!!" His voice sounded so relieved, and Jake smiled.

"Follow me! We'll lose him!" Tallstar nodded and followed the tom through the streets, making sure not to lose his flame coloured companion.
~~~~
The two toms panted as they slowed down, their fur matted and wild as they slumped on the ground under the bushes. They'd lost the dog finally, when it heard a twoleg calling. Jake sighed and turned to Tallstar.

"What on earth were you doing there!? You would have been dog food if I hadn't shown up!" Tallstar looked down and mumbled, his fur heating up in embarrassment. Jake tilted his head to the side, alerting the leader that he didn't hear.

"I was trying to get some flowers for you...there aren't many on the moor and you've mentioned those ones before..." Jake blinked before he slowly began laughing. Tallstar looked at him, his amber eyes gleaming in confusion.

"I was going there to get the flowers for you!" Then it was Tallstar's turn to laugh, lying his head on Jake's fur, taking in his scent. Of course he was...
><><><><
After a while, Tallstar sighed as he looked to Jake. "Are...are you sure you don't want-" Jake purred and licked Tallstar's cheek softly.

"I know...it's pain that I can't go with you...but I promise, we'll always meet here...just try not to get your pelt torn off by a dog hm?" Tallstar purred, his eyes gleaming mischievously.

"No promises...but I'll try." Jake chuckled and nudged him softly.

"I'll see you next time then..." And as Jake walked back to his twolegplace, Tallstar smiled softly, and raced back to WindClan. We always made a good team...even since then. He's as loyal and caring as any clan cat...maybe one day, he and I can be together. But until then...I'll treasure what we have.

I know Talljake is an overrated ship but I LOVE IT xD! Hope you guys enjoy, I'll try to get some other one-shots out! Stay safe, I love you all 💙💙
