Third POV
"I'm confused," Chase said.

"Nothing is wrong," Marshall answered Skye, ignoring Chase.

"You sureee?" Skye smirked.

"Yes," Marshall said, getting redder.

"Marshall, are you okay?" Chase asked with concern. "You're all red."

"I wonder why," Skye laughed.

"I'm fine, really," Marshall lied.

"You sure you aren't thinking about Everrrest?" Skye laughed.

"Oh, I see now," Chase understood as he nodded.

"I'm not," Marshall insisted.

"Then why are you like that?" Skye giggled.

"I don't know," he lied.

Third POV
"Hi, guys," Rubble greeted with a bright smile.

"Where have you been?" Everest asked.

"Mr. Rimler insisted on me to bring my flute home," Rubble said as he held up his flute case.

"Ah, I see," Everest nodded.

"You think Skye was telling the truth?" Ella spoke her mind.

"I don't know," Zuma shrugged.

"About what?" Rubble asked.

"She said she needed to pick up her brother from a babysitter," Everest explained. "That's why she's not here."

"Do you think she was?" Ella asked.

"I mean, she didn't show signs of lying, but she seemed uneasy," Rocky spoke.

"We should follow her," Everest said with a vile tone.

"Maybe she wants to be alone," Rex thought.

"Why would she want to be alone when she has awesome friends like us?" Everest asked with delight.

"We all have our moments," Rex stated. "Maybe she's having her's right now. Has she been acting weird at all?"

"No, she's been normal," Zuma thought.

"She's been normal at home too," Tracker informed.

"Maybe we're worrying, and it's nothing," Rocky guessed.

"Hopefully, that's the case," Ella crossed her fingers.

"I'll still be keeping an eye on her," Everest noted.

"So what goes on, guys?" Zuma asked, trying to change the subject.

"Not much," Rex shrugged.

"What about you two?" Everest asked as she shoved Ella into Zuma. "What goes on with you two? You guys act like you aren't dating. What's up with that?"

"We don't want to make it awkward with you guys," Zuma nervously laughed.

"Trust me, you already have," Rubble spoke.

"What? When?" Zuma questioned.

"At the picnic when we spied on Everest and Rocky," Rubble blabbed. "It was awkward for Skye and me."

"Wait, what?" Rocky paused. "You spied on us?"

"Nothing," Rubble quickly said.

Marshall's POV
"Quick question," Skye said as we turned the corner to Chase's block.

"For who?" I asked.

"Both of you," she responded. "This may seem weird, but does Hunter have a crush on anyone?"
