Chapter 9: "Some Serious Talks (Continued)"
A/N: Hi, I'm back and at it again. We left Adventure Bay with a scream of Sweetie after she was told by Everest that it wasn't a surprise that Sweetie got hurt by that dog. And now back to the story.
Ryder's POV:
I ran to Sweetie's puphouse knowing it was her who screamed. It sounded exactly like the ones during her first night here at the Lookout. So I hurried over to see what's wrong. 'It can't be that dog again for if she somehow escaped someone from 'Animal Control Service' would have informed me. So what is going on?' Once I got there I came across a strange sight. The small body of Sweetie was ready for an attack at the larger form of Everest who did nothing but to look down. They didn't notice me although I was near enough to see into Sweeties eyes. The sight gave me the shivers. It wasn't anger. It was far more. It was a mixture of anger, hurt and betrayal.
"Okay, you two. That's enough. Care to explain what happened here?" My 'sudden' appearance caused both of the pups to flinch. "Well, you see, Ryder …" Everest began but was interrupted by Sweetie. "We were just arguing over a silly mistake she made. But I hope we can get along better now since that mistake isn't in our way anymore."
I looked at Everest for more information but all I got was a thankful gaze at Sweetie. "Okay, if you say so. But remember, if there is anything I can do for you don't hesitate to ask." "We will, Ryder!" both of them said in unison. I chuckled. One moment they nearly were on each other's throat, well it nearly was one-sided, the next they were sitting next to each other like good old friends. 'I hope, whatever mistake it was will not have an impact in our future.'
How terribly wrong I was.
Skye's POV:
'Why did I do it? Bad Skye. Eavesdropping isn't nice.' I hate me for it but I can't help it. I just am a curious pup. Now I wished I hadn't let the curiosity get the better of me. 'Why, Everest? Why did you do it? It's not like she is interested in Marshall.' Those were the thoughts running through my head.
"What are you doing here?"
The voice caught me off guard. I didn't realize where I was going. Heaven, I didn't even realize that I was walking. And then right into his puphouse. "Do you need anything?" "N-No, I just got here by accident. By the way, didn't you here the scream? I think it was Sweetie but I saw Ryder…" I couldn't finish my sentence before Rocky dashed out of his puphouse. 'I think someone's in love.' To be honest I somehow was envy of Sweetie. Rocky is a pup to truly show his emotions and who he is in love with. Chase on the other hand… We're better not talking about it.
A/N: So, that's it this time. I know it's a short chapter. I just can't wait to see how things are going on. If you can't, either, stay tuned. Hope to see you soon.
