MISTLETOE (December 3)
Everyone knew that Valentine's Day was the most romantic holiday. But what many don't know is that Christmas was the second for all that smooching and sappy love notes, not to mention the confessions as well. You might be wondering, why? Why was it Christmas?
Blame it all on the mistletoe, that's why!
"Zuma! Don't fall over!" Skye hissed, trying to remain quiet, "You're gonna wake Chase up!"
"I'm twying, but the laddew's too cold and slippewy!" Balancing on his back paws while trying to hang a bushel of mistletoe was hard enough, but added to the fact that a certain pink flying pup was yelling at you, that just made it impossible.
"Urm, guys? Maybe this ladder should help?" Rocky, out of now where appeared, bringing along a iceless step ladder.
"Oh my gosh, Rocky, you SAVED us!"
"Um, you're welcome, I guess?"
"Skye! Be quiet! Now you're gonna wake those two up!"
"Oh my paw, karma much?"
"Guys?" Rocky waved a paw in front of the dueling friends. "I have no idea what's going on, but we should be quiet if you guys don't wanna wake every pup from their slumber."
"Oh okay then." Zuma straightened up, hanging up the mistletoe using Rocky's ladder and got off to look at Rocky. "So basically, We'we hanging this mistletoe ovew the entwance of the lookout for Mawshall and Chase. God knows how long they liked each other, but we all know nothing's gonna happen if we don't intewfewe."
"The rules of mistletoe are pretty simple, you stand underneath if you do walk under and you have to wait for another pup to come, then MWAH! You give 'em a kiss!" To
prove her point, she went and grabbed Zuma and pecked a kiss on his furry cheek.
"Skye! What the slag?!" Blushing furiously, he glared halfheartedly at the now grinning Cockapoo. "Wocky, stop laughing at me!"
"But why? You look so cute all red from just a kiss on the cheek!" Hearing that just deepened the red stain on Zuma's cheeks.
"Can't argue with him there, lover boy." Skye drawled out, throwing a wink at him as well. This was too much fun!
"Oh my paw…..you guys are such a pain to be around, I'm leaving y'all!" Making a big show of walking away, Zuma left those two out-of-wack pups to their own devices.
"High paw, Rocky! That was amazing!" Rocky moved closer to Skye, to give her a high five. He couldn't help but suspect that there was a hidden reason behind it.
Thankfully, he looked up and saw the mistletoe hanging over her.
"Skye! There's no way I'm gonna kiss you!"
"Aw. why not? And you were so close as well!" Inching closer and closer, she followed the retreating Rocky, who in turn looked freaked out.
"I'm sorry Skye, but you're not getting any kisses from me!" Turning tail and running off, the glossy furred mixed breed only slowed down to pick up his ladder once more.
"Oh Rocky….it's nice being taken and faithful to Zuma, isn't it?" According to the rumors, Zuma and Rocky were together, dating and all. Might have been a dumb move
to kiss Zuma then!
Chase stumbled towards the lookout, after a long snooze in his warm and comfy pup house. It was the weekend, so he decided not to wake up everyone as early as he usually did, just letting them wake up when they felt like it.
Was it just him, or did it seem to be….more quieter than usual? There was no one around, not even Ryder and Marshall who would probably already be awake by now. Chase looked out the door again, only to be knocked to the ground by a certain spotted ball of fur.
"Ow…." Rubbing his head sorely, the German Shepherd let himself fall back, staring up at the roof. WAIT….was that mistletoe hanging above them?
"Oops, sorry Chase! I accidentally tripped over a chew toy, and you know me, so clumsy and every- Chase? What are you looking ta?" Marshall paused his apology when Chase just stared blankly behind him, as he was sprawled on top of the police pup.
"Oh….nothing, I guess." He tried to brush it off, mistletoe wasn't such a big deal. But he cold tell that his Dally was not convinced, not one tiny bit.
"What's behind me?" Turning his head around, Marshall caught sight of the bushel and his blue eyes widened and his cheeks coloured a light pink, "Oh, I get it…."
"Yeah, the mistletoe." Blushing as well, Chase smiled sheepishly as he frantically thought of a plan. He finally has his only one, on top of him with mistletoe, the gift of kissing hanging above them. What could be better?
Without thinking, Marshall went ahead and lightly pecked his police pup on the lips. He had wanted to do that for some time now…
Chase was a little taken off the normally squeamish about romance Marsh would make the first move, and kiss him instead of the other way round. The German Shepherd kissed back, love and want overcoming his logic and brain for the while.
Skye peered around the corner, about to get a drink of water when she spotted the two, tangled up in each other's arms.
"Operation Mistletoe was indeed a success! I gotta go and tell Zuma and Rocky!" She happily said, turing around to get a drink elsewhere. She should leave them their long overdue makeup session.
Mistletoe can sure start things, eh?
End!
A/N: Hello! DAY 3! YAY! I'm sorry, I had no time to publish this one till now, since I had TONS of other stuff I had to handle. Not to mention our laptop was Yes, I am still sick, and thanks for all the well wishes! I hope this wasn't that crazy...;) To answer guest Zumalovers question, Candy Canes wasn't a romance with Chase and Marshall. It was just a bonding moment, where they had fun!
