Chapter eight - Red Rose

An hour had past since I left the cabin, for some reason I couldn't stop looking behind me. Of course I didn't want to see Chase until he decides what he wants and pup up enough to tell me how he truly feels. Thought after thought clouded my mind both good and bad. I start to think back to the day when this all started. Of course I didn't mean the day when we went to the fields. No this started on the first day I met Chase.

He was just a street pup when I met him, no owner, no family. Just himself and a wrong crowd to go with it. I know I should've listened to Ryder about exploring Adventure bay all on my own, but I didn't and I never regretted the choice I made...


Five years ago ~ ~ ~

"Ryder please?"

"No!"

"Please, I'll be back early promise?"

"I don't care, I'm not letting you out on your own. If you go out, you go out with me. Do I make myself clear!" The three month old Dalmatian huffed in defeat, slowly nodding his head up and down.

"Good," the boy about seven years, bent down so he was eye level with the Dally. "Marshall, I don't mean to shout at you, it's just I don't want anything to happen to you. I love you very much." Marshall smiled, licking his owner hand in affection. "Now go play, I still got lots and lots of packing to do and remember don't go too far?" The Dally once again nodded his head. Running out of the lookout.

He looked around, he was so bored, how he wished he had another pup to play with. Of course he had Ryder, but the boy had so many other things to do. Marshall didn't bug him so much, but still he wondered.

'I wish I had a friend who's like me?'

It was as if he was wishing on a star, or the sun as it was still morning. Marshall walked around the lookout, occasionally huffing or sighing of boredom.

Then as if his wish just came true. He suddenly saw a another pup out of the corner of his eye. This pup was a German Shepherd with a brown coat with a exception of his muzzle, paws and his undercoat which was tan. The pup also had the most gorgeous set of eyes that Marshall had ever seen and that was a radiant colour of amber. The pup seemed to be looking for something. Marshall wagged his tail in happiness.

'Maybe I could help him?'

Before Marshall could say a word, he saw the pup run off. Marshall's ears drooped down. He didn't want the pup to leave so soon. So he followed him. Completely forgetting what Ryder said.

The Dalmatian didn't have a clue where the pup was running to, but it looked so different to Marshall. Ryder never let him explore so he never got a chance to see what Adventure Bay has in store. He followed the pup until he saw him suddenly stop in a alleyway, like he was waiting for something.

Marshall once again was just about to approach the pup when he saw another figure come out of the shadows. He hid behind the wall to listen.

"Where were you, Roce was getting mad, you know not to sneak off by yourself and when you do I'm the one who get's the ass whipping!"

"I'm sorry Busta, I just wanted-"

"Dammit Chase, Roce has been giving you too many chances! You know the amount of times I had to take the blame just so he doesn't lock you up in a cage. Just be careful next time?"

The Dalmatian watched in suspense as he listened to the German Shepherd and the Staff. Marshall soon decided that he shouldn't eavesdrop any more so he stepped back, little did he know that he bumped into someone.

"Well, well look what we have here, fresh meat." The Dally looked at the dog, twice as big as he. The Pitbull glared, his paws grabbing hold of Marshall's collar, pulling him up to a wall. "Didn't your owner tell you not to go walk abouts, you might just end up run in with the wrong crowd?" The Dally shivered in fear, his spotted ears falling back.

Now he wished he listened to Ryder and stayed.

"P-please, let me go? I didn't know this was you t-territory, I'll never step paw here again, please don't hurt me?" The Dally shivered more while he begged for mercy, the Staff and Shepherd walked around the alleyway seeing their Alpha pinning up a small pup.

"Why should I let you go, what's in it for me?" Marshall blinked, eyes looking left and right until they stopped on the German Shepherd looking at him with slight fear.

"Roce, you can't be serious? He's just a pup, looks about the same age as Chase, just let hi-"

"Shut it Busta, did I tell you to speak?" The Pitbull said slapping his paw across the Staff's muzzle.

"No sir!" Busta backed away. Still the German Shepherd was in shock. His eyes focused on the small Dally, no younger than he is. Chase's heart almost stopped as he looked at the pup's mesmerising blue eyes filled with fear and sadness. He couldn't believe what was happening. He pressed his paws together hoping this wouldn't end bad. He knew that Roce was probably the toughest and deadliest dog there is. Every pup in Adventure bay knows not to mess with him.

"Actually, Busta you might have a point," Roce looked at Chase. "This pup is about the same age as our youngest recruit. So he should be the one to kill him. That would finally prove to me if he's worthy of our pack." At this point, Chase was utterly terrified and this wasn't the first time Roce had asked something like this. Sometimes he would be the one to chase down the butcher van until he was too weak to run any more. When he would fail, the Shepherd would be locked up in a small cage as punishment. If Chase even let out a single whine or whimper, he would have much worse treatment.

Of course Chase hated having to obey every single command Roce threw, he didn't know any better. In fact every since he left his family hoping for a better life, Chase had been in Roce's pack, he almost felt like he couldn't trust any of the other dogs. All except for Busta who was like a brother to him. Told him so many times to 'run' and 'leave' Roce's pack was no good. Chase shouldn't be this weak little Omega, he was born to be a leader, somewhere in his heart told the Shepherd that he could do so much more.

"You don't have to do this Chase, just run away!" Once again, the Staff was slapped right across the muzzle this time much harder causing his black fur to go slightly red.

"He will do as I command!" Chase gulped. He really didn't want to do this! That pup has his whole life to look forward to.

He was jumped out of his thoughts when he heard a 'yelp' coming from in front of him as the pup was thrown over to the Shepherd. "Now do the deed like a good pup Chase?" The German Shepherd's heart was racing so much he couldn't even hear himself think. He was stuck in the most impossible and hardest position ever. He looked at the white Pitbull, a huge smirk plastered across his muzzle. He then took a look at the Staff who had his head lowered down. He had told Chase of Roce's sickening orders especially to kill an intruder if they step too close to his territory.

Chase narrowed his eyes to the Dalmatian who shook in horrific fear. His eyes begged 'don't do this?' But when Chase gets given a job he does it. So the Shepherd obeyed raising his paw about to strike his first hit ever. Then as if he's been punched with sudden guilt and a change of heart, Marshall grabbed on his other paw looking into his amber eyes which too, were filled with fear.

"Chase, please don't do this?" The Shepherd was shocked, how did the pup know his name? Even though it was said a couple of times, but the way he said it, sounded like the two pup's knew each other for a long time? Rows and rows of tears fell down the Dalmatian's muzzle. He was silently screaming for a miracle right now. The Shepherd kept on looking down at the pup, a single tear falling down his muzzle as well. There was no way he was going to do this, not to mention he was not only going to get locked up in the rusty, old cage for the night even if it was raining, no he was going to get his head chewed off.

"No!" The Pitbull turned his head.

"Excuse me?" The German Shepherd dropped his paw to his side.

"I said no, I will not kill him! Why should I? He's done nothing to you, but a simply mistake by stepping into your territory that doesn't mean you should hurt him!" Roce growled approaching the pup.

"Who do you think you are? I'm Alpha and what I say goes! Now kill this pup!" Chase shook his head. Busta looked at him in confusion and shock.

"I said no Roce!" Before the dog could do anything, Chase grabbed the Dalmatian by the paw running as fast as his legs could carry him. He knew Roce was going to kill him once he was found, but Chase didn't care he had to help this pup. There was something different about him that made Chase's heart skip a beat not to mention Marshall's when the Shepherd grabbed his paw.

They ran and ran until they had to stop to catch their breath. Marshall looked left and right, all around his paws he felt sand also he could feel a wet sensation run across his fur. They were at a beach. The Dalmatian looked at the German Shepherd still catching his breath. Marshall had to say something.

"Thank you," Chase looked behind, suddenly he heard a terrifying howl.

"Run!" He grabbed the Dally by the neck.

"W-what?" Marshall asked.

"Run and never come back!" Chase looked back once more.

"What about you?" Marshall said, reaching out a paw.

"Forget about me, just go back home before Roce finds you...please?" The Dalmatian didn't. "What are you waiting for?"

"You! I'm not leaving without you." He placed his paws on the pup's chest. "Look I may not know you, but I can tell you don't belong here." The Shepherd growled.

"Are you crazy, look just go! I'll be fine. And what makes you think I don't belong here? This place is my life."

"How could Roce's pack be your life? Look what he just asked you to do? No pup should ever live a life like this. I don't want to see you get hurt-"

"Why do you even care? You know nothing about me, you're just some pup I saved from getting rips to pieces."

"I don't know why, but I know there's so much a pup like you could be, I see so much more. I know you're not made for his pack."

"That pack is all I know," Chase said, lowering his head. The Dalmatian lifted it back up. Eyes locked together.

"If you let me help you, I could show you there's another way. I believe in you. If you were made to stay in that pack you would've of killed me, but you didn't. That tells me there's more to you then just some street pup."

"What's makes you think you can help me." Marshall reached out his paw.

"Come with me and you'll see." The German Shepherd thought about it then after a second went by he placed his paw on top of Marshall's. For a moment their eyes made contact once more, this time a single spark going across them. Chase kept on holding the Dalmatian's paw unable to take his eyes away. Amber eyes shining right into glowing blue ones. "Come with me," Marshall whispered and Chase suddenly fell into a trance, his heart skipping another beat while Marshall's muzzle went a light shade of red.

Another threatening howl brought them back, Chase let go of Marshall's paw.

"Okay." he said before the two ran.

~ ~ ~ End of Flashback


I can still remember that day like it was yesterday. I didn't have a clue what I was doing, but I knew I made the right choice when I told Chase to come with me. He was right, I could've of just ran off and been safe, but that's not the pup I am. I knew what a risk I was taking, asking a pup who knows nothing but life on the streets to come with me. That was a choice I made and even if the first couple of weeks were hard for him, especially having a home and owner.

To my surprise Chase warmed up to Ryder quite well. I knew he would never turn Chase down. It was completely different with me. Sure I was the one who saved him that day which I didn't get a thank you for. I guess he was having a hard time, even more when we both heard that a white Pitbull was taken to the pound. Chase never knew what happened to Busta, maybe the dog just ran off, looking for a new life as well. That was until he saw him again.

I still remember the last day we saw him...


Five years three weeks ago ~ ~ ~

"Chase?" The Dalmatian called out to the German Shepherd who was relaxing outside the lookout. He looked back.

"Hey Marshall, what's up?" He said, eyes showing joy as Marshall approached him.

"Ryder wants you...says it's important." The Dally crouched down to catch his breath as Chase sat up. At first the Shepherd was very hostile he liked to keep to himself, while living in the lookout, even having a owner was all a bit uneasy for him. Marshall thought at first the Shepherd just wasn't settling in. But as weeks went by he seemed to warm up more.

However a few day back there was a robbery at Mr Porter's shop. Ryder and the pups were playing by the beach when they heard an alarm go off, they all went to see what the problem was, then as if things couldn't be any worse, a sudden fire broke out. Shocking all the citizens. There was no way of stopping it. Out of the corner of Chase's eye he saw the culprit escaped the shop carrying a black bag. Something had suddenly snapped in the Shepherd as he ran after the criminal, chasing him all over Adventure Bay the cops who were standing by soon followed.

Ryder looked down and saw one of his pups was missing, he looked all over seeing him running down the high street. He was just about to run after him, when a sudden cry could be heard inside.

Marshall's ears picked up the sound. Just like Chase, something had snapped inside of him that's when he ran, not even listening to his owner calling him back. The Dalmatian quietly yet quickly crept through a little hole in the corner. He called for anyone to hear, just as the building was coming down. He called again and then another cry could be heard from upstairs. Marshall ran up and tried to sniff out anyone scent, but all he could smell was smoke. Suddenly screams could be heard from the door right in front of him. He jumped up onto his hind legs opening it.

His eyes went wide when he saw a little boy on the far edge of the bed, fear written all over him. Marshall walked over.

"Grandpa, where is he?" The boy cried. Marshall stepped a little closer.

"Come with me, I'll take you to him?" The boy nodded, jumping off the bed. Marshall grabbed a purple blanket wrapping it over the boy. "This will keep you safe."

When they opened the door, all they could see was smoke surrounding them. The boy let out a rusty cough. Marshall walked along the staircase, looking down was fire everywhere. He turned back to the boy.

"Is there anywhere we could get out?" The boy pointed to another door.

"T-there's stairs down there." The pup tilted his head in confusion before walking with the boy to the door. He was right, there was another set of stairs. The pup told the boy to crouch down so he won't touch the fire which was starting to get close to them. They both walked carefully down the stairs until they reached a door.

Just like before, Marshall stood on his hind legs opening it. Fresh air suddenly surrounded them as they ran out. The people gasped as they saw a boy wrapped up in a blanket and a pup emerge from the burning building.

The boy ran up to Mr Porter who picked him up, holding him securely.

"Alex, I'm so happy you're safe!" The boy wrapped his arms around the man's neck as he turned to face Ryder who was cuddling his pup.

"Grandpa, that puppy saved me." The boy cheered.

In seconds everyone heard sirens coming down the bridge. The fire brigade had finally arrived. Mr Porter took Alex to an ambulance which arrived as well. Then he turned to the boy in red.

"Excuse me?" He called, Ryder turned around.

"Yes." Mr Porter walked close.

"What's your pup's name?"

"My name is Marshall." The pup spoke. Mr Porter smiled.

"Well Marshall, thank you so much for saving my grandson it means a lot. You're a hero." Marshall blushed, he'd never been called that before. He soon jumped out of his thoughts when he saw some pup was missing.

"Ryder, where's Chase?" The boy looked around.

"He ran off, I don't know what for." Marshall gasped, jumping out of his owner's arms, about to run off until he heard someone shout out.

"The fire's too strong we need more water!"

Marshall looked around, suddenly seeing a large hose by the truck which wasn't used. His instincts kicked in as he grabbed the hose, bringing it over to the house. Suddenly a gush of water shot of out of it, spraying the whole building and stopping the fire. Ryder was shocked, he never thought his pup would do this although he was still worried about the other one.

Meanwhile Chase was still running after the criminal, the man was just going through an alleyway, until he reached a fence, trying to climb over. He jumped the rest. Once over, he smirked at the pup.

"Good luck next time puppy." Chase growled, stepping back a little before charging at the fence. Two steps away from hitting it, the German Shepherd unexpectedly lifted his body up in the air almost landing on top of the fence until he kicked his back paws up once more making him land right in front of the man. The pup growled and before the man could run, the pup jumped on him knocking the criminal down and completely knocking him out. Once the guy was down. The pup howled in victory.

The cops who were running by saw this and went towards the two. They picked up the guy, placing him in handcuffs before bringing him over to the car which he was placed in. The cops went towards the pup patting him on the head. Chase felt a sudden honor in what he did and before anyone could make him feel any more proud he ran off.

He ran all the way back to Mr Porter's shop where he suddenly saw crowds of people surround the Dalmatian who had just finished putting out the fire. Chase stepped closer until he was blocked by Ryder.

"Chase, where were you? I was so worried!" He picked up the pup holding him in his arms. New emotions which were never felt before, went through the pup's mind as he wrapped his paws around the boy. He can't believe what he had done.

No what both of them did.


Chase soon released after that day that h did have a purpose now, that his life was never to be a criminal, but a hero. Save the town that he lived in. He felt so happy when he was received his brand new collar with a new accessory a blue pup tag with a yellow star inside. Marshall already had his, which was a red pup tag with a symbol of fire inside. Chase looked at the other pup who was smiling at him.

Ryder then took Chase halfway down the lookout and put a blue vest on him, with a pack on top. Of course it was nothing too extreme. After that day nothing bad happened to Adventure Bay. Although Mayor Goodway wanted Ryder's pups to rescuers incase of any emergency. After seeing what potential Marshall and Chase had. Ryder thought what his life would be like, if he had a rescue team?

'A pup rescue team?' He thought, they didn't even have a name, but they'll soon think of one.

Once Chase was suited up. Ryder placed a small, blue, peaked hat on top of his head, which slightly fell.

"It's a little big, but you'll grow into it." Ryder said as he walked into the elevator Marshall was waiting at the top in his new red vest with a red fire hat lying atop of his head. He was excited to see Chase's. He wondered what it would look like on him.

That's when his jaw dropped when he saw Ryder and Chase walk out, the Shepherd walked up to the Dally, amber eyes filled with happiness. Marshall was in such a trance he couldn't take his eyes of his friend. He was brought back by a sudden lick down the side of his muzzle. The Dally shook his head.

"Marshall, you okay buddy? You seem to be a little zoned out, so what do you think?" The pup did a little pose, placing his front paw on the ground in a dominant gesture. All Marshall could think of was how amazing his friend looked. The colour suited him perfectly.

"Y-you look great Chase, it really looks good on you." The pup smiled, giving the Dally a small nuzzle. Marshall blushed when he felt fur brush against his own. The Shepherd pulled away, eyes narrowing at the Dalmatian.

"So do you."

Marshall didn't listen his eyes focused on Chase. The pup by now was drooling.

"Alright you two, enough talking or we're going to be late for the celebration?" The both pups continued looking at each other. The boy huffed in frustration. 'First they hate each other, now it looks like they love each other,' the boy let out a little giggle. "PUPS!" Both pups suddenly snapped out their trance.

"Chase is on the case!" The Shepherd suddenly said, turning to face his owner. The Dalmatian once again blushed.

"Good one Chase, you should keep that. Now as I was saying we should get going. Marshall, Chase your pup houses are also done, but if you go down the slide you'll be in for a surprise." The pups both looked at each other then at Ryder. "Go on?" They both obeyed, running over to the slide.

Marshall must of run a little fast because he was suddenly tumbling right into the other pup which sended the both of them slipping down the slide. Chase was the first one to jump off landing on top of his brand new pup house which suddenly and instantly switched and transformed into what looks like a vehicle, similar to a car that cops use. But this was a police cruiser.

The blue vehicle was big enough for him to fit though, right in front of him were buttons and a steering wheel which was easy to use. Chase pressed a green type of button which moved the vehicle out of the parking space.

Marshall was the next one to jump off the slide, landing right on top of his red pup house which too instantly transformed into a vehicle, similar to a fire truck. Marshall pressed his paw on the button which moved the truck. Then he grabbed hold of the steering wheel moving the truck around. This was starting to get easy to use.

Both pups stopped their new vehicles looking over at an ATV emerge from a garage at the bottom of the lookout.

Soon all three vehicles speed off towards City hall where the whole town was waiting for them. Chase knew from the day he was taken away from a life on the streets, his life would change and it has already.

The two pups and Ryder walked down a red carpet, like they're some sort of celebrities. Everyone cheered as the three made their way up the stairs. Ryder knew what was happening and that's why his attire was changed. Rather than his informal wear. Ryder wore a classic blue suit with a white shirt that had one button undone, no tie and black shoes. Everyone stopped cheering when Mayor Goodway started talking.

"Citizens of Adventure Bay, we are here to honor two heroic pups that not only saved Alex and put out an entire fire, a job that not even the firefighters could stop, but also caught a criminal who couldn't be found for ages. And that's why I'm making these two pups our official rescue team, whenever we're in trouble we just call on them. They could've gone off to stop trouble anywhere, but they decided to stay here. From not even living here for about a week. Ryder, Marshall and Chase have truly shown what it means to be a hero. Thank you so much for all what you've done. This team...the erm-"

"PAW Patrol!" Marshall suddenly shouted out before sitting proudly again, Chase and Ryder smiled at him before Mayor Goodway continued.

"The PAW Patrol will bring our town so much greatness. That's why I honour you with these." Mayor Goodway walked up to them with two,

gold medals. Each one placed on their neck. On the medal had the word 'hero' and had a symbol of a paw on it. Ryder felt a single tear roll down his face as he looked at Marshall and Chase receiving their awards. He couldn't believe how far his pups has gone. They have both made him very proud.

"Whenever you're in trouble, just yelp for help!" Ryder said, as the people cheered once more. Chase saw how the people clapped and congratulated them. He wanted to say something, but all he could remember was what he said before.

"Chase is on the case!" He said happily, joy and pride filling his heart. Marshall thought - trying to think of something similar to what his teammate said. Then he had it.

"I'm fired up!" Once again, the people cheered.

"This just goes to show, no job is too big, no pup is too small!" Mayor Goodway said.

When Chase received his award, Marshall looked at him and smiled, whispering something in his teammate's ear.

"Told you, there's so much more to you then just being a street pup. This is where you belong." Chase locked his eyes with Marshall's, a single tear falling down his muzzle. He didn't care if people were watching him. He stepped up to the pup, wrapping his paws around the Dalmatian's neck pulling Marshall into an affectionate embrace.

"Thank you, Marshall." Chase whispered back. The Dally smiled, returning the embrace. "If it wasn't for you, I would still be with Roce...you're my hero." Marshall buried his muzzle in the crook of his neck.

They both broke away, a scarlet blush on both their muzzles as their eyes made contact. Everyone awed when the pups embraced. Even Mayor Goodway and Ryder stopped to look.

"They're so cute, they act just like best friends." She said. Marshall and Chase agreed as the German Shepherd reached his paw caressing the other pup's muzzle. Marshall was taken by surprise when Chase leaned forward laying a single lick down the side.

"Best friend...I like the sound of that." Marshall felt his heart race when Chase pulled away, in all truth best friend was far from the way the Shepherd felt about the Dalmatian. He smiled at him just as Mayor Goodway gave one last announcement.

"Let's give it up for the PAW Patrol!" Everyone stood up and cheered for the the three, but especially for the pups.

A man with a camera suddenly appeared.

"Mind if I take a picture of them?" The man asked Ryder, the boy nodded as Chase and Marshall walked a little closer. Just before the camera could flash, the German Shepherd wrapped his paws around the back of the Dalmatian's neck surprising the pup even more; but still the two smiled as the man took their picture.

Moments later the celebration continued as a party of honour commenced. Ryder walked over to a blonde girl and began talking to her. The two became fast friends, never running out of things to say.

As they happily laughed while the conversation went on. The two pups happily danced around as music blasted throughout the whole town. People all around got up and danced. Mayor Goodway watched as she petted her purse chicken. The party went on for many hours. Even the pups were starting to get tired.

"Come on Chase, just one more dance?" The pup shook his head in defeat.

"No way, you tired me out." The Dally let out a whimper as he lightly nuzzled his friend. Chase was just about to do the same, when he saw a black figure appear from the street. Chase began walking, until Marshall stopped him.

"Something wrong?" The pup's eye kept on narrowing.

"I don't know, stay here?" The Dally didn't listen.

"No way, I'm coming with you. We're a team remember? Wherever you go, I do as well." The Shepherd huffed in defeat.

"Okay," he said, as the two walked away from the party. When they were away from town hall their eyes went wide.

Right in front of them was Busta, but he looked different. His midnight black fur was all nicely groomed and a white collar with his name was around his neck. They both couldn't believe their eyes.

"Hello, Chase." The German Shepherd wasted no time running up to the Staff knocking him down, before embracing him.

"Busta, I've missed you so much! Where were you all this time? When they caught Roce what happened to you?" Marshall smiled as he saw the two reunite.

"I've been around. Someone found me when I was wondering the streets. He was kind enough to take me to his house and now I live with him not far from the forests. But you...I just can't believe it - you're a hero Chase, you and your friend saved this town. Unbelievable. You should be very proud. I knew it from the first day you were founded by Roce and brought to his pack, I knew you didn't belong there, but now look...you've become a rescue pup who's a hero and has a home." Chase's tail never stop wagging as Busta continued. "And this pup here, he was the one who changed that for you, you should be grateful."

Chase looked back. Before jumping off Busta, happiness and joy surrounded him as he suddenly tackled Marshall, knocking the pup down before giving him friendly licks.

"I'm very grateful." He whispered before laying another lick this time much slower. One that made Marshall's heart skip a thousand beats. Feelings enveloping him that he's never felt before.

"So what's your name?" Busta said as Chase jumped off his best friend who was in another trance.

"M-Marshall," the pup stuttered, unable to keep his eyes away from Chase.

"Nice name. Anyway it was good meeting you, but I've got to go. I'm going to Miami and I'm not coming back." Chase's ears fell back.

"I'll miss you." Busta embraced him one last time.

"And I'll miss you, but you have a good life now Chase, never take anything for granted and," he looked at Marshall once more. "And it may get even better now this pup's in it." Chase was confused. Busta just happily smiled as he walked away never to be seen again.

Chase let the tears that he was fighting now falling freely down his muzzle.

"Bye Busta." He whispered. Suddenly he felt a paw on his shoulder, Chase looked back a small smile appearing. "Hey Marshall, let's have another dance?" The Dally nodded as both of them walked back into the party, dancing the night away...

End of flashblack ~ ~ ~


After that day, Chase opened up more, started telling me more things. I learnt so much about him, he even told me about Roce's pack and the reason why he was there. We grew closer day after day. We promised that day to always stay by each others side. Be together always.

I kept to my promise, but it wasn't all about friendship, it was also about love. I didn't just save him, he saved me as well and even now we keep on saving each other, but now I guess I'm saving myself by running away.

Doing the good thing and leaving before I keep getting hurt. I knew something was up, I knew something just didn't seem right. All this weekend I've seen a side to Chase I never thought I'll see, but he was just faking it. He's always going to be that hard rock that no pup can crack, for a second I thought I did, but today changed all that. It was just a matter of time before his plan failed.

What I still don't understand? Why Skye? This weekend - no since the day he marked her. All Chase has done is push Skye away, when in all real he's still with her. He even misses her. So I was just the pup he calls when she's not there. If anything we both messed with each other's mind. He's played me and I started it. Why would he even call her, wasn't he happy with me? Do my feeling mean absolutely nothing to Chase?

'Why her?'

Is it because she's a girl? Is it because she prettier, has long eyelashes which makes him swoon or is it that sweet seductive voice that puts him under her spell. If Zuma can be hypnotized so can Chase - hell she even played with Everest's heart. She's probably the most fakest pup there is.

'Yet she's the one you want," I knew he would soon get bored of me, I'm just a clumsy fool who messes up everything.

I want to grit my canines in anger, but all I could feel was my heart breaking to pieces. I don't even understand what Skye has that I don't. I was with Chase from the very beginning, his first friend - I saved him from a life he didn't want. He's a part of the PAW Patrol because of me. I'm the one who makes him laugh when his sad, even when he's not in the mood. Chase never pushes me away. I'm the pup who knows everything about him, his past, his hopes and dreams. Everything! Skye could never compare to that! So why her?

Did I take that call wrong, maybe I should've talked to him about it instead of just leaving?

I was so confused and hurt, I picked up a stone with my canines throwing it far out in the sea. I wanted to scream, just let everything out.

'Why's it always me, the one who get's their heart broken? Don't I deserve some happiness? Didn't I prove to him I loved him enough? Show him how much better he could do?' I could feel pain after pain coming from my chest. It was like something was trying to tell me not to let go. That Chase will come running to me, then tell me everything.

I looked back, nothing just the sandy beach.

The sun continued to set, I closed my eyes hearing the tune of the wind blowing softly in my ear it was like a silent melody. All it needs now is lyrics. I already felt broken, I guess I could try something to lighten the mood, make me feel better. I mostly do this when I'm sad anyway.

Normally my mind would be blank, but word after word flowed through, I was mostly shy about doing this, but there was no crowds of people. I turned around once again, I walked along the beach, kicking rock after rock in the water. Thinking of the words, I placed a paw to my chest, it was like my heart had stopped.

As I walked I let a few set of words leave my lips.

Was it a mistake to leave

Was it a mistake to go

Why couldn't I see

What's in front of me

I fought back the tears as I kept on singing, I closed my eyes once again, hearing a faster beat.

Why did you lie

Why did you stay

Why did you cheat

If what we had was all pretend

I don't understand

I'm so confused

I just want it all to go away

A single tear fell down my muzzle as I looked out at the sea, the tides slightly splashing me. I started to let memories flow.

Now it's over

Before it's even began

I know everything now

And I'm happy, I'm gone

So the next time I see you

We won't be the same

Everything would change

But I'll still come closer

And whisper something in your ear

As I'll pass you a red rose

And when you ask what's it for

I'll say 'it's a symbol of lost love'

I thought back to the start when all this happened. Two months ago, it feels like just yesterday.

It was never meant be this way

We could've of waited, but you were impatient, so we took the risk

Why did I let you pull me in

Why did you take off with my heart

Pretend what we had was real

Yet it was all lies

I listened once again, the tune slightly changing pitch, but still sounded like it was the same. I started to think about what happened this weekend how so much changed.

Now it's over

Before it's even began

I know everything now

And I'm happy, I'm gone

So the next time I see you

We won't be the same

Everything would change

But I'll still come closer

And whisper something in your ear

As I'll pass you a red rose

And when you ask what's it for

I'll say 'it's a symbol of lost love'

The tune changed pitch again, like it was telling me to carry on. I thought back on the day when he said those three words.

'I love you'

Another tear fell down my muzzle as I carried on with the song.

And the worst thing is

I can't even stay away

I love you too much to leave you alone

I can't let go

Even if I try

I know when I see you again, I know

I'll come running back into your paws

It's difficult to say goodbye

When I know that we still see eye to eye

Can we just stay as friends

Because I don't think I can take any more heartbreak

I can't bare the thought of never hearing your voice again

I wish that you could just tell me how you feel

I love you that all I ever wanted to hear

But yet I never did...

Suddenly the tune stopped, I couldn't hear the wind howling anymore. All the words I was thinking off were all gone, my mind had gone blank. My ears perked up when I heard a sound coming from behind me. I turned my head, my eyes went wide.

'He came back.' I was shocked, but I didn't want him here. I didn't want to see him so soon.

"Why did you come here Chase, I told you I didn't want to see you?" He didn't say a word, his paw prints just kept on coming closer. I could feel my heart beat once again. Tears still were fighting to get out. I couldn't take this any more.

I refused to look at him as he sat right in front of me, I could see his paw reach out, before it could I turned around, my paw viciously flashing right across his muzzle.

"I told you, I don't want to see you what don't you get?!" I screamed at him as I threw my paws at his chest roughly punching at it. "Why did you come back? You don't love me? You just played with my heart!" I kept on punching, I didn't care if I was hurting him. I let my claws dig into his chest piercing into his fur.

Suddenly his paw pulled mine off him, he held them restraint as I was forced to look at him, I silently winced at the long scratch across his muzzle. I never thought I would hit him. His eyes looked deep into mine. I struggled I didn't want to be close to him, but he just kept on pulling closer and closer. I didn't want to look at him, but our eyes kept on making contact. The tears that I was fighting finally fell down my muzzle.

"Marshall, I love you."

It's official I'm dreaming, but why does it feel so real? I felt him pull me more closer, I stopped struggling.

"W-what?" I muttered, my mouth felt so dry from crying so much and singing. He placed a paw to my muzzle.

"I love you," he said again.

I felt the pieces of my heart start to repair. I wanted to believe this was a dream, but it wasn't. He'd finally said it after so many days, he finally told me how he feels. I couldn't hold it in anymore.

"D-do you really mean that?" His paws let go of mine as his paw reach over to his collar.

'This can't be happening?'

He kept on reaching until he pulled out a black box same colour, same size. Okay now I'm believing this is a dream. He carefully opened the box while my eyes went wide.

Inside was a golden heart just like before, but the words were different.

Friend from the beginning

Mate till the end

My one and only

My saviour and hero

My world

At the bottom was a white paw and a black paw somewhat conjoined. Chase suddenly turned the heart round.

I love you till the very end

Be my mate and share this world with me?

After he closed the box, letting it slip out of his paws. I was still shocked.

"It was always you Marshall, and I'm sorry for not telling you that sooner, but yes I do mean it and I want to be with you." A single tear rolled down his muzzle. Chase stepped closer, but my paws pushed him back.

"If you want to be with me so much, what about Skye? I heard you telling her how much you missed her. What was that all about and why did it take you this long to say it?"

"Skye? I don't miss her, when I told her that, I was tricking her to go back to the cabin so she and Everest could talk. The Husky didn't want to be alone and if we went home she would, that's why I called Skye, but I meant nothing of it. I even broke up with her two days ago, I'm no longer her mate. It was always you Marshall, never her!" That's explains it, but something else I still wanted to know.

"Why did you mark her?" He lowered his head down.

"Remember that day when she was on heat for the first time, well later that night she told me she 'loves me' I instantly told her 'I don't feel the same' because no pup has my heart like you do, but Skye took it bad I could tell. We drifted apart and it was like she went under some sort of depression. I didn't understand why. That's when I was talking to Zuma a year later and he said 'why I didn't give Skye a chance?' I told him that I was in love with you and Skye could never compare to that. Zuma then made a joke about I could just pretend. I didn't know it was a joke so I took it seriously so when Zuma went to see Rocky, I went to see Skye. I thought about giving her a chance. So I marked her, but I regretted it more then anything in the whole world. It was a mistake I never loved her and I never will. I thought I was helping a friend out, but on the day you kissed me, I couldn't keep my paws off you any more. I tried holding back and it didn't work. It was never about want. I was probably the most stupidest pup for doing that to my friend, but I was foolish for doing that to you. That's why I marked her Marshall."

I was surprised, so he never did it out of love. I was still confused.

"Chase, what would've happened if you didn't mark her?" He placed a paw on my muzzle.

"I would be with you,"

"Chase, I didn't know how I felt until this affair started." He moved his paw to the side. I blushed from the touch and moved in a little closer.

"Marshall, the feelings that we shared were always there, but you should've known how I felt, I poured out hints everyday. The way I acted with you was nothing how I act with the others." He looked down once more.

"Chase.." I felt my heart race, I bit my lip as I spoke. "Why did it take you this long to tell me..why do you hide your feelings?"

"Remember when I was in Roce's pack, how he treated me? He made me feel weak, like I was worthless and I wasn't good at anything. So when I grew up I built this barrier so I don't feel weak any more. I didn't want you to see me like that, I wanted you to see me as a strong, dependable mate, one you'll never regret being with. I wanted to prove to you that I'll be the one you could rely on, be devoted to your every want and need. Take care of you through every bad and good moment...I didn't want you to think how Roce did. I never wanted to let my guard down. I want to be your protector and I want to be loyal to you. The last time I let my barriers break I lost something I really cared about, but when I knew I could've of lost you. My pride didn't matter-"

"You know that would never happen, I would never leave you Chase-"

"But you did, and it was just like losing my family or Busta. I couldn't bare the thought of losing you too. You mean so much to me, so that's why I had to tell you how I feel. I loved you for such a long time, probably from the first day we met, I saw something different in you, something that made me leave it all behind and go with you. Zuma's right I did imprint. From the moment I looked into your pretty blue eyes, I knew you'll be my whole world. One that I just can't ever let go." I blushed once again, I brushed my fur against his as I nuzzled into his chest. My paws reaching over to his neck which I wrapped them around.

"Chase, I love you." I whispered. He immediately returned the embrace, burying his muzzle in the crook of my neck planting a single kiss. I felt my fur wet as tears fell down his eyes. I held him tightly giving Chase a little squeeze. "Chase don't cry...I'm right here. I'm never leaving you."

"I-it's just you're too important to me to let go that's why I came back, the thought of never seeing you again would literally tear apart...if I had to choose between any of us I know it would be the most hardest challenge in my life. The easiest part would be picking my answer, the hardest would be the effect on every pup else. If half of the team leave then I'll be lost, but if I didn't have you then there wouldn't be a purpose to live any more. Marshall, you're my whole world, without you, it doesn't exist." I kept on holding him until he broke away, his eyes looking deep into mine. "Marshall, I love you." I smiled, just as his lips connected with mine. Fireworks going off through my whole body.

'I finally know how he feels.'

I couldn't of been any happier as I kissed him back more passionately. I kissed him like I never want to let go, every kiss he ever gave to me, I know now that he means it. That his love was never a lie, that feeling was always there. His paws kept on wrapping around me as one of them pushed me to the ground where he made our kiss deeper. Our tongues instantly found each other and moved about in a dance of passion of true love. Our lips continue to move in synchronization. I ran my front paw up and down his back. My muzzle flushed when he suddenly pulled away, laying a single lick down the side, making me moan out in pleasure as he licked slowly and sensually.

My breath was soon cut short when his lips connected with mine again, this time the kiss was a little different, rather than his tongue invading my mouth, it licked along my lower lip, before lightly grazing it with a little ferocity. My heart raced as he continued to bite me, it wasn't rough, so I liked the feeling. My paw kept on running down his back, tattooing little patterns on the blue material that stood in the way of feeling his soft fur, before I reach his tail which I teasingly squeezed. He suddenly bit harder on my lip which drew a little bit of blood out. I moaned once again in pleasure while he growled in arousement, pulling away until I grabbed the fur around his neck pulling him down.

I started planting small butterfly kisses while he lightly nibbled on my ear making me moan more as I wrapped all my paws around him, pulling him down until our sheaths touched. Before I could do anything else his tongue made contact with my muzzle again licking down the side. Then he reached up grabbing hold of my ear with his canines.

"Chase ~ " I moaned out, turning my head to the side as I stroked his tail up and down.

"Marshall, let's go back home?" I breathed in and out, my body growing hotter by the second, I let out a sudden gasp of bliss when his back paw moved in between mine. Teasing me once again. "Please..." Why does he want to go to the lookout when we could stay here?

Instead of just talking, I moaned in response he took that as a signal to stop and get up even though I was two seconds from pulling him back again.

"Why don't we just stay here?" I let out a desperate moan grabbing hold of his collar.

"M-Marshall...I rather be somewhere where we can be alone all night." I pulled him closer, breathing hotly in his ear. He let out a gasp of pleasure with a hint of frustration. "What if I told you I remember?" I tilted my head in confusion.

"What do you mean?" He took a slow lick down the side of my muzzle.

"That night...I remember what happened, everything we did - it's all come back to me." I was shocked not to mention flustered. Just thinking about that night makes my heart race.

"H-how?"

"When I was driving away from the cabin, I started to think what to tell you, how to make this right...then I felt like I just got hit with something. I started to remember...thought after thought coming back...I couldn't even concentrate on driving. That's when I stopped at the lookout, I didn't see any pup there. I went over to my pup house." His paw picked up the black box again. "On that day, I brought this and I was going to give it to you, but I froze up...I was acting like a coward...Everest was right; if I didn't drink from that bottle then I would of never done that. But thinking of it now - I'm happy I did." I was about as red as my fire truck by now as memories flooded my mind.

"I'm happy too..." I said bashfully. Chase tucked the box back in his collar before reaching out his paw.

"Let's go home...mate?" I nodded my head in response giving him a quick peck on the lips. The paw he was reaching out, grabbed something placing it on my head. My red cap. "Told you, it's looks good on you."

As we were walking along the sand towards the top of the bay where our vehicles were. We walked about an inch, our fur close to brushing against each other - well it would've except for the thin material we were both wearing. We took a quick glance before I looked up.

"The sky looks beautiful tonight." I muttered as Chase looked up as well.

"Yeah.." We took another glance, a undying spark shining in our eyes. The glow that I always saw in Chase's was - love though I was puzzled by something.

"Chase, where's your spy helmet?" He pointed a paw.

"In my truck, I took it off when I arrived here. I figured it would be better than having to confess with half of my muzzle covered." I let out a little giggle as I nuzzled into his fur.

"So answer me this one question. Why do you worry about Skye so much?" He tilted his head in confusion. "It was always something I wanted to know after all you're the one who says you don't care?"

"Marshall, I only care for her safety nothing else. She's a part of the team and it wouldn't be the same without her. To tell you the truth that's the reason she fell in love with me at first, because she thought I care about her and I do just not the way she wanted."

"You know she hates it now right?" He nodded.

"Yeah she told me, but it's not like I'm smothering her with concern. Besides I got a much more important pup to take care of now - Skye has Everest and you're much more than just a teammate to me." He gave me a quick nuzzle as we approached our trucks.

"I wish Skye realises that soon." I let out a silent sigh as I climbed back into my medic van. I looked over as Chase placed his spy helmet back on. 'Even if we don't have a mission, he's always got to look good.'

Once buckled in, we both drove off for the lookout.


"Good race, huh?" I let out a low growl as we both jumped out of our vehicles.

"Yeah...I guess." I let out another growl, shaking off my cap.

Driving to the lookout was fine at first, I thought it wouldn't even take that long. That's until Chase decides to drive down the long way. Then he gives me this look when we at the same level. Just like Zuma, Chase has a completing streak and if he gets challenged he'll accept it without even thinking twice. Now it finally makes sense why Zuma always wins when Chase and he have a competition even pup pup boogie, the Chocolate Lab still has the highest score.

Instead of being challenged, Chase challenges and even if we have little competitions sometimes, I really didn't want to do this, but without even a word the pup drove faster. I knew he wanted to race and that's what he got. Even if I hate racing with him.

'Because he always wins!'

"Hey...it was just a drive around Adventure Bay. Who cares who won, I was only racing you for fun anyway just like we always do." He did have a point there. Whenever we compete it's all for fun. So I shouldn't be upset.

"You're right...maybe next time I'll beat you." He looked back, raising his eyebrow.

"We'll see."

Chase reached a paw to his zipper, undoing it and revealing glossy tan fur. Then he reached up to his helmet removing it off his head. Shaking his fur straight after. I swear every time he did that, I was in a trance. It was like time had stopped or everything went into slow motion. My eyes never stopped gazing at his shimmering fur flying up and down. My favourite part is when he's done. I stepped up to him.

"Something wrong?" I don't answer, instead I lift my paw up to his ear turning it the right way up so not pink bits was showing.

"Thanks." He smiled. I moved my paw to his muzzle.

"Anytime Chase, besides you always forget."

"I can't feel it." I let out a little giggle, nuzzling his chest. "Aren't you going to take of your uniform?" I widen my lips into a smirk.

"I thought you like a pup in uniform?" I said teasingly.

"Nah I prefer you just fur," Chase reaches his muzzle so his hot breath is hovering over my ear. "That means even without your collar..." I gulp, catching my breath. He removes his muzzle laying licks down mine before nibbling on my fur. "Anyway you're the one who likes seeing me in uniform. From the first day, I made you drool." Once again, my muzzle was flushed.

Before I even had a chance to speak, Chase reached his paws to my chest, lightly pushing me down to the floor. Chase bent down with his eyes narrowing seductively as his canines grabbed hold of my zipper. He very slowly moved the grey zipper down, his eyes never leaving mine. Once I felt my vest loosen I felt him pull it off, taking it out of my paws. When I was just fur except for my collar I felt his fur come in contact with mine.

My paws reached up to his collar, closing the gap between us as I caught his lips in a small kiss before pulling away. I felt his paw run down my muzzle, lightly caressing it as he drew little circles. I took a quick strike with my tongue as his paw went closer to my lips. Then he bent down laying sweet, tender licks along the side of my muzzle. In return I wrapped my paws around his neck, letting my canines pull softly on the fur around it.

I hear a soft growl as I start to plant soft butterfly kisses along his neck. I take the risk and flip us over which for once he doesn't mind. I soon let my tongue lick along the base while my paw draws little patterns on his chest. Instead of a growl I hear a soft moan. 'Guessing Chase has broke his sound barriers with me as well.' I look up seeing his eyes flutter up and down as he tries to keep them open.

"Marshall..." I hear him softly whisper as I grab his collar about to lift it off until his paw stops me. "Let's not do this here?" I tilt my head in confusion. What could he possibly be thinking? Why not here as well? Every pup's asleep and Skye's not even here, she must of went back to the cabin, Chase's plans work for once even if I completely misunderstood. I shouldn't be surprised, Chase is a very good actor, but I know that what we have is not pretend...it's all real.

I take a look at the green and orange pup house, Zuma's is empty whereas Rocky's closed. I shouldn't be surprised. Rocky's pup house when inside is huge. No wonder he can fit a lot of things in there when transformed into his recycle truck (I still don't even know how he fits all that stuff inside, it's like some Doctor Who thing I swear) I guess I'll never find out. I even asked him once and the pup said nothing. 'He's hiding something I just know it, but what?'

Many seconds go by when I realise I'm still laying on Chase's chest, occasionally striking little licks which make him catch his breath.

"Where do you want to go then?" I move up so I'm in eye level with him.

"Huh, what?" I blink. Did he not hear what I said?

"Where do you want to go, as you don't want to stay here or the bay?" I feel a paw caressing my muzzle.

"Let's go to the fields." I swear that's his favourite place, I don't blame him it's actually nice there. A clam and relaxing place to just - well relax and it good to think when things are bothering. Me and Chase always went there when we wanted to get anyway from everything to just be alone or being in the comfort of each other.

'It all started in the fields.'

"Okay," I lean down once again, planting a small kiss to which he happily returns then pulls back when we get too carried away.

We both stand up, shaking our fur clean of dirt and grass. This time Chase's ear didn't flip over, but I still reached my paw giving it a light stroke.

"My ear again?" I shook my head.

"Not this time, I just like touching them." He let out a sigh, nuzzling me once more before we made our way to the fields.


We were chasing each other by the time we made it to the pup park, I kept on running all along the climbing frame till I reached the swings. As it was night, I couldn't even see where I was going, but I somehow made it to the other entrance which I existed through.

I continued to run, occasionally looking behind me, Chase was literally on my tail. I must of been running too slow or he was getting faster. He was seconds away from me, I took another look as I ran up the hilltop only to slip and fall down the other end. I still couldn't see anything, but feel a very wet substance when I landed.

I lifted my paw seeing my once white fur now covered in something that looked - brown. I was just about to get out flicking the mud off my paw. That's when I heard Chase laughing his tail off, I shot a glare at him.

"What's so funny?" He wiped a tear off with his paw before giggling again. 'He better shut up or I'm going to throw this on him. Wouldn't make much difference as Chase is nearly all brown anyway.'

"N-nothing...it's just you look like an exact copy of Zuma right now, like a twin." How is that funny and I don't look like him. The crazy pup kept on laughing that he didn't even hear me growl, letting my lips twist into a wide smirk.

"Oh, Chase?" He looked forward still in laughing hysterics. "I thought you might say something like that." He tilted his head in confusion my grin went wider as I placed my paw in the mud before flicking it straight on him landing directly on his muzzle. Once thrown Chase stumbled back, making him lose sudden balance he as stated slipping - right into me.

Before I could move, Chase crashed straight into me making us fall in an even deeper pile of mud covering our whole fur. When he lifted his head spitting out mud he gave me a sweet smile as his muzzle went scarlet.

"Heh, sorry Marshall." I lightly glared at him, then I flicked a little bit of mud on his muzzle once again.

"It's okay, I forgive you Chase." That smirk I once had too turned into a sweet smile as I walked closer to him, wrapping my paws around his neck. "I don't mind mud much." I whispered pulling him closer to me, I suddenly felt another wet sensation this time on my nose. As he places his paw on it.

"Boop." I blush, he's never that.

"I'm normally the one who does that." He smiles.

"I know, but you haven't done it in ages, how come?" I lower my head slightly down.

"I thought you hate it when I paw your nose." He let's out a little giggle, wrapping his paws around my neck.

"Are you kidding me. I love it! You've always done it and well I found it cool." I raised an eyebrow.

"Cool? Are you sure that's the word you mean?" I gave him a light nudge. His muzzle goes even red as he bites his lip bashfully. Shy Chase, this is new. "You know that day when I ran away, you said I was cool is that really what you meant?"

"H-how did you-"

"Zuma told me, he said that when you said it...you looked so shy." I reached a paw to his muzzle, despite the mud I still ran it down.

"Heh...well I was thinking of you and - well I...erm-"

"Chase, remember you don't have to hide your feelings away from me." I licked down the side of his muzzle, tasting slight mud, but I managed to ignore the taste.

"Hey Marshall, don't you want to get clean now?" He stepped back until my paw grabbed his collar, pulling him.

"Tell me? I'm sure you've said it before, but with every pup there it was hard?" He lowered his head. Until I felt a sudden pressure on my lips as he kissed me.

"I wanted to say, you're cute, but it came out as cool." His muzzle suddenly buried in my chest as he hid from embarrassment. "Can we get clean now?" I nodded in response as he gave my fur a quick nip, making a sudden gasp escaped my lips.

"H-how?" He took another light lip, although the touch made me let out a quiet moan. "Katie's pet parlour is closed now,"

"I know, but we could always take a shower in the lookout." I tilted my head in confusion only to throw it back slightly as Chase began to lick my neck.

"There isn't a shower...in the lookout."

"There is, where Ryder sleeps." My eyes went wide.

"We're not allowed in there, Ryder will go mad."

"He won't know, he's been on a date with Katie all day and he hasn't come back since. I bet he's staying with her." I let out another sharp gasp as Chase's canines started pulling on pieces of my fur, licking along them.

"A-are you...sure?"

"Yes, come on Marshall we need to get clean anyway."

"But the water can't wash us, it'll just rinse out the mud, we'll sti-" he shushed my lips with a kiss.

"We'll wash each other, just like we did when we were young." I blushed as memories flooded my mind.

"Y-you mean have a shower, together?" Chase pressed his lips against mine again.

"Shower's big enough and we're both dirty. So yeah...I thought you like seeing me wet anyway Marshie?" I swear I'm melting when he calls me that. I can't help, but drool at the thought.

"I guess Ryder won't mind. Although if he finds out I'm going to kill you!" Chase throws his paws up.

"Don't worry, we'll make sure there's not a single hair left behind." I widen my lips in a slight smirk.

"Chase, I thought you were a good pup? You do know we could get caught right?" He smirks back.

"There's no harm in breaking the rules you know." He leans in closer, Chase's hot breath hovering over my ear. "Besides it'll make our night more exciting. Think about it?" I was confused, what could he be talking about?

"Let's go then?" He nods in response as we start walking back up the hill. I catch my breath when I feel slightly drenched fur brush against mine.

When we get back to the lookout, still every pup's asleep. I wonder where Rubble is though? This pup seems to be disappearing every day. Chase gazes sweetly as we walk into the building.

"Where's Ryder's room again?" We both step into the elevator, pressing a button.

"Middle floor. I thought you knew Marshall?" I shook my head as I looked forward, I was surprised when I heard laughing coming from my right.

"What's so funny?" Chase stopped laughing - tried as he stepped closer, pointing a paw at me.

"You're so dirty, I can't see any white and I don't know where you spots went." I widen my eyes as I lifted my paw - it was completely covered in mud. I lowered my head. Although I was staring deep into amber when Chase's paw touched my muzzle. "Don't worry, I'll clean you up." I blushed once more, of course we're having a shower, but even the thought of Chase running his paws all over my body - not that he doesn't do that anyway, made me shuffle my back paws together slightly.

When the elevator stopped, I saw the place where our uniform is kept. We both walked out, turning a different direction towards a red door. I let out a silent sigh. Chase better not get us caught!

"Don't worry, we'll be fine. Ryder's staying with Katie tonight." I glared at him.

"How do you know that?"

"Marshall, it's gone over midnight now. Ryder would of been back ages ago, but he's not. After all he's on a date. I think the boy should have a little fun once in awhile." My eyes went wide. What could this pup be thinking now?

Before I could even ask, I was dragged into what would look like a motel. The place had three or fours rooms. One was a kitchen, two were bedrooms one being Ryder's and another being a guest room. Then the was one door further down that read.

'Bathroom'

We both walked over to it, I looked down the mud was following my tracks. I tapped Chase.

"Oh will you relax, we'll clean it up after. Now come on." Before I even knew it, I felt my tail getting dragged all the way into the bathroom. When he let go, my eyes went wide. The room was covered in blue and gold wallpaper with a oval shaped silver bath in the far back, next to it was a gold sink. Then what humans call a 'toilet' was on the opposite side, but what caught my eye was the silver painted long and wide box standing near the bath. My eyes grew in curiosity.

Chase suddenly walked over to it, standing on his hind legs to open the sliding door. I looked inside as a dial and a rectangular device was on the wall with a long tube. On the top was a round object that had little holes in it.

"Marshall, why's your muzzle like that? What's wrong?" I grew confused.

"What is that?" Chase began laughing as his canines grabbed on one of the dials, suddenly little strings of water came out of the round object.

"Marshall, please tell me you've heard of a shower before?"

"Yeah, not one like that though." Chase shook his head in disbelief. As soon as he stepped off the dial. His fur became drizzled with water, as all the hairs fell down, my jaw dropped as I watched his fur get wetter and wetter. The water washing away most of the mud.

"You just going the stare at me, or are you going to come inside?" I nodded my head, stepping inside. I turned my head when the door unexpectedly closed. I watched in horror. "We can open it again when we're finished." I looked around. The silver painted, glass walls around the shower became somewhat steamy making it hard to see out of. "Come here?" Chase whispered, my heart raced as I stepped a little closer, I felt a waterfall drench my once dry fur. I looked down, seeing the mud flowing into the floor.

I felt no more water as Chase turned the dial around, stopping it. I wondered why until I saw him pick up a small bottle, one that read 'bubble bath' on it. My heart raced once more as he walked closer to me. Chase narrowed his eyes down dropping the bottle by my paws.

"Marshall, wash me?" He whispered seductively in my ear. I caught my breath as I picked up the bottle with my paws, his canines grabbed the cap opening it. I gulped as I lifted the bottle.

"Chase...turn around?" He obeyed, turning so I could see his back. His perfect silky, smooth back with the softest fur I have ever touched.

'Okay, I'm getting carried away, I need to focus.'

As I was just about to pour an amount, I felt something continuously tap me on my paw. I looked down. Chase's tail was wagging rapidly. I smiled as I placed my paw on his back, laying a thick amount of soap on his fur. I saw him shiver at the touch, then as my paws went on his fur, Chase relaxed. I began to lather up the soap around his back, scrubbing out all the dirt and mud that was clinging to it. I began to move my paws to his sides, washing along them.

Chase suddenly let a small little moan escape his lips. My heart raced as I tried to concentrate which was getting harder by the minute. When I was finished with his sides I began moving my paws around his thighs where I could feel his muscles flex beneath his fur. I was losing control as I teasing drew little circles which made him stand up. I reach my paws over to his tail, which I lathered the soap into. I stroked it up and down giving it a teasing squeeze at the tip. I was rewarded with another moan followed by a sharp gasp. I let my tongue roll out my mouth as I lightly panted.

I reached for the bottle again, pouring another large amount of bubble bath on my paw before I placed it down Chase's sides again, this time going down his back paws, before going underneath his underbelly which I ran my paws through. I went lower down his navel. My paws running soap all though his tan fur, then going even lower I grabbed hold of his sheath which his shaft slipped out of. The single touch made him gasp out in pleasure letting out an erotic growl. I slowly stroked his shaft up and down, lathering soap into it.

Chase continued to moan, as I let go of his shaft now moving down his chest, but this position was hard and there was something I really wanted to do. I got a little closer to him, before climbing on top, this caught him by surprise as Chase pushed back. I reached my front paws over to his collar, but I let my canines grab a piece of his fur as I lightly nipped it. I could hear Chase heavily pant as I untied his collar, before letting it drop to the floor. I jumped back off him, tapping Chase on the rear end which made him yelp.

'This was so easy - an Alpha turning into a Omega in seconds.'

Of course I would never change the position that'll we use. Chase would always be the dominant male and I'll be the submissive, but I wanted to show him ways to make him feel good as well. I tapped his rear end again, whispering something.

"You know, I'm starting to miss your pretty eyes, turn around Chase?" I hear him gulp as he slowly turn around, his muzzle flushed scarlet as he continued to pant. I placed another amount of soap on my paw as I slowly placed it on his chest.

"Hmm, Marshall..." I saw his eyes very slowly close as I began to lather the soap into his fur. I ran it up and down then I went lower as I began washing his front paws. The simple touch made him suddenly bite his lip as if he's trying to keep quiet. I leaned forward.

"Chase, just let it out?" He bit his lip harder as I washed his other paw before moving back up to his chest I ran my paw over his little nubs, moving closer to his neck, which I started to breath in his scent. It was so strong. I started caressing small little circles over his muzzle, being careful with his eyes. The last thing I did was his soft ears. Then I walked forward, my tail curling around his muzzle as I went to the dial, turning the water back on, his fur reached once again, as the water splashed all over it. I let out a sudden yelp as Chase nipped on my tail, his nose sniffling underneath it.

"Ch-Chase, what are you doing?..." I let out a little moan as his tongue

licked along my tail as he turned around. I couldn't possibly let him do this. I quickly turned to face him before he could mount me.

I instantly felt paws wrap around my neck as my back suddenly hit the wall, Chase roughly grabbed my collar, lifting it desperately off my neck, before slamming his lips on mine, I felt the water drizzle my fur as it started to mix with our kiss. It made it somewhat - exciting. My lips automatically moved with his, kissing him passionately, Chase's tongue slipped through my canines, exploring my mouth as he pulled me up, so I was standing on my hind legs as was he, our shafts instantly touched as Chase pressed his body against mine. He soon stopped exploring my mouth, now he was finding my tongue. I felt a rough tug when they connected going into a dance of passion. I began running my paw up and down his back teasingly stroking his tail up and down as I moaned into the kiss, I hear him growl from time to time. His tongue soon left mine as he moved it to my lips, licking along the bottom one, I let out a muffled yelp, squeezing the tip of his tail when Chase bit hard on my lip, his canines roughly grazing it.

I was suddenly forced to pull away from the kiss when Chase's back paw moved in between mine, moving over my shaft as he slowly grinded his body up and down, any minute now, I'm going to be on the floor as he mates me, and judging from the way he was moaning I could tell I was driving him crazy, not to mention being in a steamy, hot shower. This was like my ultimate fantasy. I felt another wet sensation as Chase began to lick along my neck, his tongue pulling on my fur. I let out a low howl as he continued to move his body over mine. I was getting aroused by his wet fur brushing against mine. My body temperature was rising as I started to get hot. I heavily panted as Chase's lips planted soft butterfly kisses on my neck before licking over them. I let out a sharp gasp as I bit on Chase's ear which caused him to growl.

I was the only one who always receives pleasure, for once I want to be the one who gives it. I nibbled and licked along his earlobe as I moaned into his ear. I could feel Chase's hot breath on my neck as he breathed heavily. I threw my head back from sudden bliss as I felt it hit the wall, suddenly I hear a button click. A soft tune unexpectedly flowing in my ear. 'Didn't know showers had radios? The beat was slow and calm, just the perfect tune to set the mood right.

I bit on Chase's ear again as I began to whisper something seductively in his ear.

"Chase, you've done so much for me today." He breathed on my neck again, laying a single lick. I moaned into his ear before I whispered something else, I changed the octave in my voice to a husky, sultry sound. "Let me give you something back?..." I felt his breath heavy as he looked into my eyes, the water making them slightly blurry. I reached a paw over to his muzzle as I caressed it. I leaned down as did he, I placed my other paw on his chest, softly pushing him until his back lightly hit the floor. I climbed on top as I began to kiss him again. My eyes closing as soon as our lips made contact. My ears perked up when I suddenly heard soft lyrics along with a beautiful voice singing them.

# Our time is almost over, but I can't let you go

"Why did you turn this on?" Chase muttered out huskily as his lips lingered over mine.

"I think it might set the mood." I whispered back as I let our lips connect once more, I could feel Chase's paws at my sides, holding them firmly then he reached them up about to wrap his paws around my neck, until I grabbed hold, holding them restraint.

#Breath is short, heart is aching Let's make this last forever

"No touching! This time I'm in charge...Chasie." I demanded, a slight sense of control in my voice.

"Come on Marshall, not this again-"

"Chase, I know what you want to do and I'll let you do it...just let me give you this one thing?" He let a sudden howl escape his lips as I grabbed hold of his shaft, stroking it up and down as I felt a substance on my paw. "You need this anyway." I leaned down towards his ear. "Please ~" I could feel his heart quicken beneath me, as he suddenly bit his lip. I knew he would never obey. So I grabbed hold of his collar, wrapping it tightly around his paws, trapping them from touching me.

# An eternity Take me with you, I'll surrender

"What's this for?"

"So you won't flip me over, I let you go if you promise not to do that?" I saw his eyes gaze deeply into mine, I know how much he wants to mate me right now - I could that desire clear in his eyes. Within a minute he finally nodded his head in agreement. I reach my paws over to the collar, freeing his.

I then lean down, laying a long, sensual lick down the side of his muzzle before going back up, I did this continuously until I went closer to his lips, licking across them. Chase moaned out slightly, I reached over a paw, caressing his muzzle while I breathed hotly on Chase's neck, making him take sharp intakes of breath. As I began licking, I reached open one of my eyelids, seeing his paws thrown over his head.

# I wait, I hesitate My mind is made up and now it's time to wake up

I soon began to nibble along his neck, going to the sides where I see a deeply red mark, one that'll stay there for a long time, I moved my back paws in between his as I moved down a little, taking light nips at his fur. As I concentrate on Chase moaning I also hear the soft music playing, that beautiful voice now gone and replaced by a erotic beat, one that made me want to do something more intimate with the pup underneath me. It was like the music was controlling my actions.

I stopped nibbling as I began to roll my tongue along one of Chase's very small nubs, I licked up and down as my paw ran little circles along Chase's inner thigh.

# It's late, but I can't stop and stay We gotta head out

"M-Marshall, please?..." I bit a little harder on one of his lower teats, before laying three long licks. As I went to another, my paw went up a little higher, grabbing hold of Chase's now very aroused shaft. I stroked it up and down as I licked along Chase's navel. Planting a small kiss. I reached open my eye again, as I looked up. Chase's eyes were closed as he breathed in and out, softly moaning. I don't even think he cared that he's submitting to me right now.

I stop stroking when I've reached my goal, my hot breath hovering over his shaft. I lean down slightly as I very slowly lick the tip.

"Ahh ~ "

# I need you I need you I need you

I reach my paw to his mouth, which he starts to sensually lick along with the water dripping on it. I moved my paw down, running swirls down Chase's body, I hear more moans of pleasure when I lick again while teasing his small nubs with my paw. I laid another lick this time lower down his shaft then upwards, sending a single joint of pleasure through his whole body as Chase gasped out sharply, his body lightly twitching from excitement.

'Wow, he's worse than me.'

At first I was a bit shy with my movements as I'd never done this before, so I took slow, gentle movements, similar to how Chase did to me.

"Marshall, more?..." Chase's moans were seriously like music to my ear, not to mention the sweet symphonies playing as well. Beautiful lyrics could be heard once again.

# I wait, I hesitate My mind is made up and now it's time to wake up

I obeyed to his request moving my tongue a little faster as I could taste some of his arousal, which I loved - it made me crave more, I could feel my primal instincts trying to come out hiding, but I didn't listen I wanted to do this my way, not the way my body wanted me to be. I was listening to my heart as I continued to please my mate.

I blushed when I realised that we're mates! No more secrets, no more hiding away. No more lies or cheating. Me and Chase are finally free to be together without any judgement. Even if no pup gave us any, only Skye at first, but now everything seems to be all at peace.

I tease Chase more into submission as I lay three long licks at the base of his shaft, then I wrap my tongue around as I strike a taunting swirl. One that makes him throw his head back in pleasure.

"Marshall ~ " I twist my lips into a smile as I lick along his shaft again, going up to the tip I lick around it before giving it a gentle nip.

# It's late, but I can't stop and stay We gotta head out

"Ahh! M-more?..."

I take another nip before licking around the tip teasingly again, that's when I decide to wrap my lips around his shaft, the edges brushing over the round tip, I slowly start to bring my mouth down. I suddenly feel a soft sensation as the back of Chase's front paw grabs hold of my ear, stroking the fur around it.

I find the sensation somewhat ticklish as I began to breath slightly over his shaft, I feel it twitch against my mouth in response. I let out small moans of pleasure, while I hum against his length as I move my mouth up and down. I feel his shaft continued to twitch about as my mouth vibrates along to the tip, where I plant a small kiss before moving my mouth down again.

"A-ahh, Marshall, faster?" I obey, increasing the pace of my mouth. I could hear him heavily pant as I continue with the intimate touches. I push my tongue over the underside of his length. As I feel his hips push up against me, making me go deeper. I lower my mouth even lower until I feel his shaft at the back of my throat. I move up and down once again a little more intense than before.

# I need you I need you I need you

"Yes, yes! Keep going...d-don't stop!" I smile again as I let my tongue swirl around his whole length, straight up to the tip where I take a quick nip.

"Ahh ~ " I let my canines take little nips from the top to bottom. Each bite was a little harder than the other, making him cry out ecstasy. His moans were already turning into loud howls. They could be heard for miles.

'Poor Zuma, I bet that pup's cursing himself for having very good hearing.'

# But I can't stop and stay

I kept on going up and down over his length when I heard his howls start to become a little raspy as he was running out of breath. His pants went getting heavier and heavier. I knew by now Chase was starting to get close. I increase my motions a little more. I stop moving my mouth up and down as I go back to licking. I lay long, sensual licks from the middle going the top then going to the bottom.

# Our time is almost over, but I can't let you go

I strike a teasing swirl which makes Chase howl out again, this time louder, he stops panting only now he gasps out in pleasure and moans out in bliss. I feel his hips push up against me once more forcefully. As I lick around the tip I taste more of his arousal, then I lay three long licks from the top to the bottom, striking a long swirl back up.

I felt Chase's legs suddenly twitch beneath me, as he let's out a sudden howl of release. I lick along his round tip again, I taste all his arousal, all that tension he was holding up. I felt his paw stroke my ear again as I kept on licking up my tasty treat until it was all gone.

I lick my lips straight after, leaning up. Chase's eyes slowly flutter open as they suddenly locked with mine, our eyes gazed into each others. I smiled, laying a tender lick across his lips. Chase was still catching his breath, I felt his paw at my muzzle while he gently caressed it. I smiled sweetly bringing his paw over to my lips when I planted a kiss. Then I leaned down, tracing a line of saliva down the side of his muzzle then up towards his ear.

"Did you enjoy that Chase?" I teased him more as I breathed hotly.

"Y-yes...I love you Marshall." I smiled as a single tear fell down my muzzle. I leaned over so our lips were lingering against each other, I wrapped my paws around his neck.

"I love you too Chase." I connected our lips in a small, tender kiss. The water somewhat mixing with it. We moved our lips very slowly in simple synchronisation. I felt a sudden pleasurable joint as Chase pulled me up, pressing my wet fur against his again, our shafts touching as mine dripped with sudden arousal. I let out a muffled moan as I started to grind over Chase's body. I made our kiss more deeper as my lips wrapped more roughly against his as I slipped my tongue through instantly connecting it with his one. I felt his paws run up and down my back as I grinded more intense. Chase suddenly pulled away from the kiss, looking at me in concern.

"Marshall, a-are you okay?" I moved my body with a slight force causing Chase to bury his muzzle in the crook of my neck.

# Breath is short, heart is aching Let's make this last forever.

"Y-yes!" I howled as I moved my body again. "I need you Chase, I can't take it anymore...mate me please?" I grinded again, I leaned up, my canines grabbing hold of his ear while I bit a little roughly.

"Ahh ~ " I felt Chase's tongue lick along my neck, my fur being pulled slightly.

"Chase please?" I moved down, looking deep into his eyes as my paw made contact with his muzzle. I lightly caressed down the side, laying a soft kiss on his lips. "Chase, I love you." I kissed him again as he wrapped his paws around me, suddenly flipping me over.

I blushed when I felt my back hit the wet floor, I looked up, his fur was still dripping wet. I felt his hot breath hovering over my ear.

"You look so hot when you're wet." I let out another moan as I licked down the side of his muzzle.

"Hmm, say more Chase?" I brought his muzzle down as I bit on the fur around the side.

# An eternity Take me with you, I'll surrender

"M-Marshall, I...I- Mmfp ~"

"Please, I need this so bad. You remember now, just do it again?" I was so lost in pleasure my eyes closed, I soon felt soft licks going across my lips. I suddenly bucked my hips up against him, as my paw went down, grabbing hold of his shaft, I could feel it twitch in sudden arousement. "You need this too, just-"

"Okay," I heard him suddenly whisper with a hint of lust. "Marshall, I'll do it." I sighed happily as I felt him climb off me. I opened my eyes dazedly, rolling around, leaning my body up a bit. I instantly lifted my tail up, letting him smell my musk. I felt his hot breath near my tail as Chase inhaled my scent around my entrance. I wriggled my rear end teasingly.

# I wait, I hesitate My mind is made up and now it's time to wake up

"P-please?" I begged, I couldn't help it any more. I needed this like crazy. I felt a sudden wet sensation licking at the tip of my tail, taking little nips to the front. Where he started licking downwards towards my entrance. Then I felt that wet sensation now licking along the outer rim of my rear end. I desperately moaned pushing my hips back. I felt his paw run down my side, calming my primal urges.

# It's late, but I can't stop and stay We gotta head out

"Marshall, calm down." He softly whispered. I stopped pushing my hips back as I took deep breaths.

'What am I doing, I'm not so lust driven animal, this is the freaking pup I love, I should let him mate me the way he wants even if I want it so bad. But I need it like that day and I know it would be exactly the same.' I slowly relaxed as I found my breath.

"I'm sorry." I muttered out.

"For what? Marshall, we're animals. You know how hard it is to hold this all in. Every time you asked me to mate you, I wanted to, you don't know how much. It wasn't just desire and it'll never be. I love you and doing this shows that, but also there's so much more. Don't be sorry,"

He ran his paw down my side again as he licked over my outter rim.

"Just relax?" I obeyed. Chase runs his tongue across my rim of my entrance before bringing it back to the center, then I feel a sudden poke as he pushes it inside until he breached the surface once again.

"Ahh ~" I bit my lip as I tried to keep my moans quiet, I kept on biting until I could taste iron which made me stop, instead I let out a howl of pleasure. Chase sudden removed his tongue.

# I need you I need you I need you

"Marshall, don't hold it in - let it all out...besides I would like it if I could hear you scream." My muzzle flushed as I threw my head back in pleasure when Chase pushed his tongue back inside. He pushes in a little deeper, swirling his tongue in a circular motion. One that makes me cry out in ecstasy as joints of pleasure shoot through.

'If he keeps this up then I'll going to release too soon, and I don't want that.'

I felt an exquisite rush when his tongue suddenly left my outter rim, leaving with a wet 'pop' sound. I felt my entrance relax in sudden succession. I felt more calm than I did moments ago.

"Still want this?" He huskily whispered.

"Yes! Yes!" Then again, I was also acting like a wild animal.

# But I can't stop and stay

I felt warm vibrations when Chase started to climb on top of me.

"Ch-Chase, I want you to knot me?"

"W-why?"

"Because I want it, you didn't do it last time, but I want to belong to you forever."

"Marshall, you're mine no matter what." I let out a sudden gasp when I felt something poke at my entrance. "And if that's what you want, then I'll give it to you."

I feel Chase lift his body more higher until our fur brushed against each other. He wrapped his paws comforting around my neck while his muzzle rests by my head. I feel a sensual sensation when Chase starts to nibble on my earlobe, his tongue pulling on the fur around it.

'Just like he did, the very first time.'

Chase moved his hind legs closer so he could adjust himself the right way and properly. I could feel his shaft poke more at my entrance. He pushed himself forward a little, letting the tip of his length poke more against my outer rim. I took a sharp breath at the sudden contact, I should already be used to this.

"Ready?" I was feeling like a sense of deja vu.

# I need you I need you I need you

"Yes."

I let out a sudden moan when he pushes his shaft inside. Just like before I feel my entrance tighten around his length. I feel a ticklish yet pleasurable feeling when he slips more inside, moving his shaft upwards. I feel my entrance stretch slightly, making me feel that full sensation once again. I instantly pushed my hips back. As Chase pushed his against my rear end. I felt that exquisite rush in my inner nethers, spread all through my whole body. I felt that feeling go to my back which makes me throw my head back once more.

Chase's canines once again pull on the fur around my ear as he gently nibbles, then his licked along my earlobe going down to my neck where he traces soft licks along the side. I slowly parted my lips as lustful moans escaped and blissful howls also. Chase pushed his hips against me once more.

Chase slowly pushes his hips back as he growls slightly. I feel his shaft sliding backwards along my entrance. I felt my paws going weak as his shaft brushed against my inner walls, squeezing against it. My shaft throbbed in desperate need as I felt that exhilarating feeling leave my body for a second until Chase slid his length back inside.

# Our time is almost over, but I can't let you go

I feel Chase's front paws running up and down my sides until he stopped, grabbing hold of my lower torso, holding on for support. I soon forgot about that sudden urge, just enjoying this intimate moment with the pup I love. I felt pleasure not from lust, but from love. As usual Chase's movements were slow, gentle and soft. I loved it when he was like this, he always took good care of me, one of the reasons I love Chase so much. He was never shy or teasing me. It was all about treating me right. Chase is a natural born leader, Alpha. He's always the one to be in control. I didn't mind that, but when he mates me it was nothing like I expected. It was just like the first time, but a little different. Better even.

Chase was so careful, sliding his length in and out at a satisfying pace, one that was making me go crazy again.

"Chase ~ " I was beginning to lose myself. I didn't care about anything right now. I completely forget where we even were at this point. I soon felt him lick along the back of my neck again as his hot breath breathed hotly against my back.

"Ahh ~" I feel Chase's paw move down so it was now grabbing hold of my shaft, I could feel a string of arousal drip out. He begins to slowly stroke it up and down.

# Breath is short, heart is aching Let's make this last forever.

"Ch-Chase...a-ahh ~" I feel his canines lick up the back on my head, going towards my ear which he nibbled on once again. "F-faster?" I begged once more, pushing my hips back as he continued to slide his length in and out of my entrance.

He soon obeyed, sliding his length out as he fixed himself into a better position. I let out a howl of anticipation and desperate 'need' I was losing control. Once Chase had a greater hold of support, he gently slid his length back inside my entrance, doubling the speed of his thrusts. I felt another joint as I lost sudden control of my paws, I leaned down a little more moving my front paws forward.

"You okay?" I hear him lustfully ask.

"Yes, I'm fine...just you're driving me insane Chase!" I hear him suddenly growl.

"Y-you too?" Chase strokes my shaft once more, his paw intensely going up and down. "Like that?" I moan out in response.

"Y-yes!" I feel another string of arousal drip out. "Ahh, m-more?" I felt my whole body getting hotter and hotter as a extasy driven feeling started to take over my body. "Chase, how close are you?" I breathed, I hear a growl in response. I pushed my hips back, yearning and needing a deeper thrust to push me over the edge. I could feel my head spinning as my mind went blank.

"C-close...why?" I let out another howl, louder than before.

# An eternity Take me with you, I'll surrender

"Knot me?"

"M-Marshall, are you...sure?" I felt a sudden rush as his hips slammed into me, a little rough.

"YES!" I screamed as I threw my head back in pleasure. I pushed my hips back again. "D-do that again?" Chase obeyed, sliding his length back then slamming his hips forward with harder force. I instantly let out an ear shattering howl. I suddenly felt something bubble up inside me.

With one more hard, rough push slamming against my inner walls. I felt my body tingle and tremble as I reared my hips back, letting a lighthead blissfulness wash over my whole body a slammed my paw on the ground when I found my release, all that tension I was holding in, I'd finally let it all go as I howled out in utter bliss.

# I wait, I hesitate My mind is made up and now it's time to wake up

Chase continued to thrust into me as he found himself getting close, his hard thrusts soon went softer, but still fast with less intensely. I felt something suddenly wrap around the tip of his shaft as it clenched inside my entrance. I felt his knot tie around the rounded tip, making it hard to slid back out. With one more thrust Chase found his release as he let out a pleasurable growl followed by a loud howl, I felt each bit of his arousal filling me up.

# It's late, but I can't stop and stay We gotta head out

I was exhausted, my paws completely lost balance as I fell to my stomach. Chase laid on top of me - not like he could escape with the knot trapping him. I felt the water still drizzle over my fur, I was so lost in pleasure that I completely forget about the shower, I lifted my paw, it was shining white along with black painted spots. I could suddenly feel Chase's tongue at my neck, licking along it. I also heard the soft notes playing, now slowly coming to an end.

# I need you I need you

I took a deep breath when his canines bit down on my fur.

"Mm, Chase ~" I started to catch my breath as his canines continued biting, the sensation wasn't painful for once, but pleasurable and gentle. Hard, but soft as well. Chase only stopped when I told him too. He soon trailed his tongue up towards my ear.

"I love you," he softly whispered again. Those words which were so new to me, now I was getting used to. I loved hearing them, even if don't, I know how Chase feels.

"I love you too." I felt his canines pull on my earlobe.

"I so want to kiss you right now." His husky voice never stops turning me on.

"M-me too."

And that was the first thing we did when we came unstuck.


After minutes of kissing each other and roaming our paws all over our bodies, me and Chase decided we should go back outside to our pup houses, but just as I'm about to leave the shower, Chase pulled me back before washing my body even if I was clean - well the water washed me, however Chase was content on cleaning me up properly. I huffed in defeat as I let him. Even if I was fighting for temptation the whole time.

After, we both were clean - enough that our fur was shimmering and unbelievably soft we both left the shower, remembering to turn the dial around. Once done, I was fighting the urge to shake my fur clean off water as Chase slipped my collar back on. I tied his together as we locked eyes.

In the end we just grabbed a towel off some ring on the right, Chase threw the towel over me, moving it around my fur, he ended up pushing me to the ground as he messily dried me, I couldn't stop laughing the whole time. The towl was so ticklish. After I was done, Chase removed the towel, letting out giggles I was confused until he brought me to a mirror in Ryder's room, I have never properly looked at myself before. I kept on looking at myself then back at Chase as I slowly lowered my head down.

"Marshall, what's wrong?" I let a single tear fall down my muzzle.

"I'm just wondering how I managed to be your mate when you could have any pup, but...you choose me, when I'm just ordinary, plain and-"

"Beautiful." I lifted my head up.

"What?"

"Marshall, you're beautiful and you're not ordinarily and you're definitely not plain. You're unique and special, your fur is remarkable and your eyes make the whole would come alive when they light up...that's the first thing I saw when I imprinted on you...your eyes were no colour like I've ever seen, it so rare for your breed to have it and the same with your type of fur. When will you stop putting yourself down?" Chase placed his paw on my muzzle. "You're perfect just the way you are, don't change that. I love you for 'you' I fell in love with your looks, but I fell deep when I knew your personality. You're kind, sweet, shy and yes you're clumsy, but that's one of the things I love about you. You're also heroic, helpful, funny and that's doesn't make you a joke it makes you even more amazing. The list is endless, but most of all you are my mate and I wouldn't trade that for anything in the whole world." Chase's paws turned me around to face the mirror once again.

Oh his eyes, his eyes

Make the stars look like they're not shining

His fur, his fur

Falls perfectly without him trying

He's so wonderful

And I tell him every day

I was caught by surprise when Chase started singing, I didn't say anything, but blush as he looked at me.

Yeah I know, I know

When I compliment him

He won't believe me

And its so, its so

Sad to think he don't see what I see

But every time he asks me do I look okay

I say...

My blush went even deeper when Chase's cupped the side of my muzzle, turning me to face him.

When I see your face

There's not a thing that I would change

Cause you're amazing

Just the way you are

And when you smile,

The whole world stops and stares for awhile

Cause boy you're amazing

Just the way you are

I turn away bashfully, Chase leans over planting a kiss on the side of my muzzle.

"Chase..."

His lips, his lips

I could kiss them all day if he'd let me

His laugh, his laugh

He hates but I think its so sexy

he's so wonderful

And I tell him every day

"Chase..." I twist my lips into small smile when I look at him, his paw places on my muzzle again.

Oh you know, you know, you know

Id never ask you to change

If perfect is what you're searching for

Then just stay the same

So don't even bother asking

If you look okay

You know I say

I gaze sweetly into his eyes as his paw starts caressing small circles down my muzzle. I did the same to him until he pulled my paw closer to his lips, planting an affectionate kiss on it.

When I see your face

There's not a thing that I would change

Cause you're amazing

Just the way you are

And when you smile,

The whole world stops and stares for awhile

Cause boy you're amazing

Just the way you are

Chase suddenly plants a kiss on my lips as a single tear falls down my muzzle dropping onto his fur, his licks the tears away before he starts singing again.

The way you are

The way you are

Boy you're amazing

Just the way you are

When I see your face

There's not a thing that I would change

Cause you're amazing

Just the way you are

And when you smile,

The whole world stops and stares for awhile

Cause boy you're amazing

Just the way you are...

"I love you Marshall, just the way you are." Chase wraps his paws around me as he pulls me into an embrace, planting a tender kiss below my muzzle.

"I-I love you too Chase," I return the embrace as I bury my muzzle in the crook of his neck. His front paw softly run up and down my back, as he starts to groom my fur. I do the same to him, to my surprise, his fur is dry.

For many minutes we groom each other until our fur is all combed back. When I look in the mirror again, I see each strand of my fur falling back in each individual line. I see my spots clearer than they've ever been.

We soon leave the room, Chase cleans the muddy paw prints off the floor, hiding the evidence in the bin. Then we both leave the motel like rooms.

As me and Chase walked out of where Ryder stays, we decided to ride the elevator to the top. I walked over to Chase, brushing my fur against his.

"This night has been truly unforgettable, by the way I thought you don't sing?" I nuzzle into his chest as he rubs his head against mine.

"I do, I just only do it with you." I grew confused.

"But you sang at the talent show, didn't you?" I lifted my muzzle up, rubbing my nose against his in an eskimo kiss.

"Yeah a little, like I said I only did it because you was there. I don't sing much in front of the others."

"Besides me, who's the other pup you sang in front of?" Chase trailed a soft lick down the side of my muzzle.

"Zuma, that's only because the pup was annoying the hell out of me." Boy, do I know how that feels.

"Kind of sweet when you winked at me that day." Chase nuzzled me.

"I was happy that you sang with us, you have a beautiful voice...I never want to stop hearing it." I bit my lip bashfully as a light red strip slapped across my muzzle.

"T-thank you-"

"I'm not the only one who thinks that, so does every pup else. Like I said you're amazing just-"

"I get it Chase." I placed a paw on his lips.

We were so focused on our conversation, that we didn't even realise the elevator had stopped minutes ago. I turned around.

"When did we get to the top?" Chase let out a little giggle.

"About five minutes ago." I lightly glared, pawing his nose.

"Boop." I felt Chase move his muzzle forward as he rubbed it over mine.

"Boop to you too." I smiled as we both walked out.

We decided to walk out onto the balcony when we suddenly heard voices from below.

"Wocky, just give me a chance to explain?"

"Explain what Zuma? Explain how about a week after we got together you decided to mate with another pup, a pup who's been trying to tear us up from the start!"

"It wasn't like that, Skye meant nothing to me-"

"You still mated her though and gave her your mark. I get the first bit, but why did you mate her, wasn't I good enough."

"Yes you was! You still awe, Wocky it was always about you, Skye was just-"

"She's was just a what? I didn't know you and her were that close, why did you even become my mate Zuma?"

"Because I love you! Wocky I've loved you fwom the vewy beginning, I impwinted on you-"

"And yet you still go after her and decided to keep the whole thing away from me. What's was so hard about telling me...didn't you trust me or something?"

"Yes I do, I twust you with my life it's just I was afaiwd."

"That's not really an excuse Zuma, I was your mate, we're not supposed to keep things from each other! I told you everything about me, why didn't you tell me?"

Me and Chase suddenly jumped up on the balcony, looking down. My eyes went wide.

"I wanted to, but I thought once I did then you wouldn't be want to be with me anymowe."

"Zuma, you already know you can tell me anything, yes I would've of been mad and upset, but I wouldn't of left you. It would've taken sometime, but I love you and somehow we could've worked it out."

"Wocky, I'm so sowwy, I newew wanted to happen - wait what do you mean 'was youw mate' you awe my mate?"

"I'm sorry, but it's over, I just can't be you mate any more."

"Wocky, t-that's not twue, you love me-"

"Yeah, I do, but you lied and cheated not to mention kept the whole thing a secret!" As I continued looking down, I saw Rocky back away from Zuma. What's happening, this can't be happening! "Is that why you marked me the day after, did mating Skye give you some courage-"

"No! It was nothing like that! I didn't know what happened until Skye told told me and it made me feel so guilty, like I betwayed you and I and I know I made it wowse by not telling you, but when I mawked you, I did it for love...I was so scawed I was going to lose-"

"Don't you think it's too late for that now?"

"Wocky, please I'm begging you don't do this, I don't know what I'd do without you?"

"Then I guess you're about to find out, I'm sick of the secrets and lies! It's over! There's no way we can make this right any more!"

"W-Wocky please?" Rocky stepped up to Zuma, placing a paw on the Chocolate Lab's muzzle as he planted one last kiss on his lips.

"Goodbye Zumi." With that being said, I suddenly saw a flash of grey bolt further and further away from the lookout.

I looked to my left, my eyes going wider as I looked back.

"Where are you going?" I walked over to Chase before he pulled me into the elevator.

Once down, we both ran out out the lookout, towards the crying Labrador, his eyes filled with devastation as he laid there with a broken heart.

"Z-Zuma..what..just..happened?" Chase said, catching his breath. The Chocolate Lab didn't look at us, but he lightly whisperd.

"Wocky's left me,"

As Chase walked even closer, Zuma suddenly ran inside the green pup house, slamming the door shut.

"Zuma?"

"Leave me alone, I don't want to talk anymowe!" I wanted to knock again, until Chase pulled me back.

"What are we going to do Chase?" His paw grabbed mine as he placed something inside before closing it.

"We're going to help them get back together."

"H-how?"

"You'll see, now let's go back inside?"

I watched Chase walk off, before I followed him, I opened my paw, my eyes went wide as I gazed at the beautiful object.

It was a red rose.
