Plot: A forbidden love plot that takes place between two apprentices in two different clans. I've conceptualized it as being two of the original clans in the lake territories, but it doesn't really have to be there.
The two apprentices are 10 or 11 moons, close to becoming warriors. They have met a couple times at Gatherings and after the last one, about a quarter-moon ago, Muse 1 (your character) asked Muse 2 (my character) to meet at the border between the clans at Moonhigh. Muse 2 agrees and the roleplay starts at this meeting. They don't know each other very well, but their conversations have been nice and they have left behind a history of hostility between their clans to speak with each other during the Gatherings.
But neither of the apprentices understand where the hostility comes from. Muse 1 lost her mother just after being born and was nursed by a foster mother. Muse 2's father lost his eyes after a grave injury in battle against Muse 1's clan and has hated the clan from the core of his soul since then. And unbeknonwst to either of the apprentices, Muse 1's mother was killed in a misunderstanding on the border, by Muse 2's father.

As the meetings between the two apprentices increase in frequency and they approach becoming warriors, cats begin to catch onto what is going on since the apprentices don't spend every moment expressing hate for each other. Slowly, the truth of why Muse 1 lost her mother and why Muse 2 couldn't grow and hunt with his father begins to come out to them, complicating their relationship.

Muse A: Mothpaw is a bright and open-minded individual who is characteristically friendly; she is driven by a deep sense of curiosity about the world, and she is known to be unwavering in her beliefs—however, her upbringing has left her relatively naive, so she does not always know how to handle complex situations. She values trust and perseverance, and dislikes injustice or dishonesty. She is a spotted brown-and-white tabby with light yellow eyes.
Muse B: Ivorypaw is a silver-pelted, lithe and lean tom-cat with bright blue eyes. He is a quiet and observant cat who doesn't voice himself often, though he doesn't struggle to engage with and play with the cats around him. Not excelling at any particular aspect of warrior life, Ivorypaw tries to attach to and learn from the better apprentices around him and usually clings to his mentor for advice and to learn how to succeed better as a warrior. Generally, Ivorypaw doesn't feel that he does enough to be considered a warrior, as he is constantly comparing himself to "better" apprentices, yet his skills are perfectly competent in reality.
