as the three cats traveled back to camp, the apprentice slowed his pace down-- falling purposely behind the other two. it had been bugging him since sootpaw had showed up. wormpaw glared daggers at the marshy dirt, was everything okay? a sigh escape him, gazing at his friend from under his short eyelashes. "you can say it now, " he mumbled in a hushed tone. "dirtfur won't hear, i think he has dirt stuck in his ears from the training, " wormpaw mew, and it wasn't a joke. he was generally sure he had flung dirt into the warrior's ear. could ears get sick like eyes? wormpaw would hope not!
