I gasped at what Flame said. "Of course!" I yipped, licking his muzzle. Flame seemed to blush under his

redish orangish fur when I did that. "I-I... Misty, I love you." Flame mumbled. I smirked.

"I love you too." I sat next to flame, and buried my face in his warm fur.

"Misty, I'd like to take you somewhere special, follow me!" Flame smiled. I nodded and followed him as

I was told. Flame toke me far across the plains, and then up a familiar rocky path. We emerged from

a foresty area, onto a rock over-hang. "Oh flame! My favorite place!" I nearly cried of happiness.

"I... I saw you here one night... You fly beautifully, by the way..." Flame said. I nearly gasped.

He saw me there that night! I thought. Flame gave me a nuzzle and I stopped thinking.

"Th-Thank you... Flame." I felt like blushing. Flame and I sat together and watched the sunset.

It was the happiest moment of my life. "Misty, can you show me your amazing flying?" Flame asked.

For a moment I had forgotten I had wings. "Oh! Oh yeah, right away!" I got up on my feet, and started

flapping my wings. Flame backed a few feet away from me as I leapt off of the over-hang. My wings

brought me into the air, and I immediately felt the amazing feeling of flight. The Stars had just

came out, making the night sky twinkle like magic. I felt so confident that I even tried a few tricks.

I folded my wings against my side, and plummeted straight down towards the valley below me. At the

last minute, I expanded my wings and flew straight up. I ducked down and flew in a big circle, then

swooped back down to the over-hang. "Wow! Misty, you were AWESOME!" Flame said.

"Ha, there's nothing to it, just the wings and the sky!" I laughed. Flame licked my cheek.

I nuzzled him. We sat together, in the moonlight. Our silhouettes lay up against each other, two wolves,

once individuals, now together. We were a pair, mates, and no one could break us apart... Or so I

thought...
