"How are the pups?"
"Don't worry about the pups. I am more worried about you, Marshall."
"What do you mean, Tom?" asked Everest.
"Well Everest, I have been monitoring both of your vitals and Marshall, you have been worrying me."
Everest began to cry, but Marshall started to comfort her.
"What's wrong with me?"
"No serious problems, but your blood pressure is a little high. This could mean that you are stressed. Are you stressed?"
"I am..."
"Why, Marshall?"
"I don't know, Tom. I just don't know..."
"Marshall, if anything is bothering you, tell us." said Everest.
"I don't know how you'll react, Everest." Everest stood there, silent. She was worried that he would break up with him. Marshall reached into his pocket and pulled out a small black box. Everest became confused, but Tom was excited.
"Everest...I have loved you for a long time and I really want to spend the rest of my life with you...Will you m-m-marry me?" Marshall opened the small box and a gold ring with a diamond was in the middle. Everest covered her mouth with her right paw and started crying.
"Y-Y-Yes!" Marshall grabbed Everest and brought her in for a kiss. He put the ring on her collar since the ring would fall off if it was on her paw. Marshall pulled away and pulled another box out. This box looked very similar, but it was longer.
"I got this for you for our anniversary." Marshall opened the box and pulled out a gold neclace and put it on Everest.
"Marshall, you shouldn't have."
"Thank you, Tom. You helped a lot with all of this."
"You were in on this, Tom?" asked Everest.
"Yes on Marshall asking you out. No on his vitals, but it looks like it's going down."
*Dream*
A few months have passed and it was Marshall and Everest's big day. Chase was helping Marshall with his suit, whilst Skye was helping Everest with her dress. Everyone decided that Ryder will give Everest away. Chase was Marshall's best man, Skye was Everest's maid of honor. Rocky was the priest and the church was filled with everyone from Adventure bay. The ring barers were Marshall and Everest's pups. The music started playing and everybody stood up. Marshall turned around and saw his flower pups walking down, then Skye. Finally, he saw Everest being walked by Ryder.
"You look amazing, Everest." said Ryder.
"Thank you, Ryder."
Everest and Ryder got to the front and Ryder kissed Everest's forehead.
"Please be seated." Said Rocky. Everyone in the room sat down.
"Everest, do you take Marshall to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"Marshall, do you take Everest to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"Now, if anyone has any reason that these two should not be married, speak now or forever hold your peace."
Immediately, the back doors swung open.
"I OBJECT!"
Everyone gasped. Marshall was angry and reached for his concealed Desert Eagle, but Rocky shook his head. Marshall released his grip.
"C-C-Copper?"
"Everest, I still care about you... Please be with me."
"Copper, you left me! I've moved on and I love Marshall."
"This chump?"
Marshall became upset, but Chase put his paw on Marshall's shoulder.
"He's not a chump. I love him. He would never leave me, unlike what you did."
"Marshall's a loser. He's definately a weak, stupid, boring, lame, and, above all, a big chump."
This enraged both Marshall and Everest. Marshall grabbed his concealed Desert Eagle.
"I AM VERY CLOSE TO SHOOTING YOU, ASSHOLE!"
Everest walked next to Marshall, kissed him and held his paws. Copper became enraged.
"SHE'S MINE!"
Copper ran after, but Marshall pushed over and put him into a choke hold.
"There is one thing I didn't tell any of you."
"What is it, Marshall?" said Everest.
"Do you know how I leave for months on end?"
"You go to your parents. That's what you tell us." said Chase.
"That's not true. My parents are dead. I've been going to San Diego and joined Navy SEAL Team 3 and 6."
Everyone in the room was shocked. Marshall took Copper's arm and put it behind his back. He then pushed his shoulder blade into his back.
"Marshall...why didn't you tell us?" Questioned Everest.
"I wanted to, but I couldn't tell you on how dangerous it is."
"Dangerous?" said Chase and Everest.
"The mission I go on is going into hostile areas and get shot at. We dodge Improvised Explosive Devices, Grenades, Rocket rounds, and bullets."
"WHAT?! How frequent is this?" Asked Everest.
"I call it, Tuesdays."
Everyone was shocked. Everest knew that this was a big thing that Marshall didn't tell her and she felt betrayed. She started crying and ran out.
"I need to talk to her."
Marshall let go of Copper and ran after Everest. Marshall saw that she ran into her room and he knocked, then came in.
"Everest?"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I really wanted to. I knew that this could happen. I also didn't know what I would do until my last leave. I was going to tell you, I really wanted to, but I couldn't."
Immediately, Everest woke up, screaming.
"Everest, what's wrong?" said Marshall.
"I just had a nightmare." Marshall noticed that Everest felt tense.
"Everest, tell me what's wrong."
"Marshall, are you a Navy SEAL?"
"No, why?"
"I had a dream that you kept that you were a SEAL a secret."
"I hate keeping secrets...Anyways, I can't wait for our wedding tomorrow."
"Me neither."
The next day, the wedding went of without a hitch. The reception was like any, but Marshall then immediately got up and asked for Everest to follow. Marshall led her to the middle of the room and walked away. Everest was facing a curtain and the room fell silent. They all looked at Everest, who was still standing. Immediately, the curtain opened and everyone was shocked.
