(Whisper)
I ran from the houseboat in tears. Why couldn't they understand how Beau feels about me? I didn't care about Beau being under Ednis's paw steps. I didn't care about any of that. I love him and he loves me… I just know it in my heart. And those two dogs who weren't my parents tried to keep us separated. I couldn't handle this banishment. My heart was telling me to be with him. I had to be with him.
I ran through the city and tried to find him. He was anywhere in sight. I checked Madison Avenue but that was a lost cause as well. Jumping onto a moving car, I gaze up at the sky with a saddened look on my face. I believed that the stars could give me an answer of where he is. It also made me remember when we stargazed together. It only hurt me.
With tears flooding my eyes, I make my way to central park with my head and tail hanging down. I wanted to see Beau… It hurt for me to be away from him. Sitting down by the lake, I wrap my fluffy tail around me and closed my eyes from the depression I was feeling.
But she didn't realize that Beau was only about 10 feet from her. He too was feeling the same depression as her because of the banishment he had just faced. He wanted to be with the love of his life. At first, he didn't believe that it was her sitting there by the lake. But he took a second look and felt his heart flutter. It was her. It was Whisper. He started to walk over to the siberian husky.
Whisper's pointed ears perk up at the sound of oncoming footsteps. When she turned around to see who was making them, a look of pure happiness had replaced the depression she felt before. They were really there. Ready to come together as one.
Whisper then starts running towards Beau and he does the same. The two dogs come together finally and nuzzle each other affectionately. They were together again. It was as if nothing could break them apart.
Whisper tucked her head under Beau's furry chin with her pointed ears lowered. His white fur caressing with hers never felt so good. Their paws touched and that same spark they felt the other night was still there. Their hearts couldn't stop racing. Their tails couldn't stop wagging. "Beau… I love you." Whisper says softly to him. "I love you too… Whisper." Beau repeated, getting the siberian husky's heart to flutter. It was true. He did love her. After that, the heat between them became too much to handle and the two ended up becoming mates.
Then, a bunch of fireflies made their way by them, intriguing the two lovers. Whisper was the first to see them and immediately started to chase them with Beau right behind her. Both dogs raced through a lit central park and tried to catch the fireflies right out of the air while laughing.
After a while, Whisper winds up on top of Beau and they continue to laugh happily. They then stood up and shook his fur. "What do we do now?" Whisper asks, giving him a warm smile. "Let's run away together. We can start a gang of our very own. What do you say?" Beau suggested, doing a play bow. At this, Whisper was reluctant because she low-key regretted what she had said to Rose and Dodger. The very dogs who had raised her since she was a young puppy. She looked away for a moment, getting Beau's direct attention.
"What's wrong? Isn't this what you wanted? We're together now." the American White Shepherd said. "Yeah, yeah it is but…" she replied, struggling to find her words. "But what?" Beau asked, sitting next to her. "It's my parents. My family. I can't just leave them behind." she replied. "You sure you want to go back? After all, they don't want me around." Beau asked her. "I have to. Beau, I said something I shouldn't have to my mother. I left her brokenhearted… I have to make it up to her." Whisper tells him.
"You win. Alright, let's get you home." Beau reluctantly agreed to escort her back home. Whisper licked her new mate's face as a thank you. The two dogs then walk side by side out of Central Park, leaving the fireflies to dance under the moonlight.
