Chase and Skye's Love Story

Chapter 17

Ok time skip Zuma got Ella back and Rocky was so happy because their together and Zuma have Rocky too.

Back above ground, Chase was inching closer to Skye who was still crying on the pavement. He didn't want to startle her, but he felt like he needed to comfort her. Seeing Skye in this condition made his heart ache. He slowly made his way next to her and put his arm around her gently.

"Are you okay Skye?" Chase asked softly.

Skye, who was caught a bit by surprise recognized the scent and voice immediately. Why did he have to come now? Skye thought in a panic. She didn't want to be seen in tears, especially in front of Chase. She quickly wiped her eyes, cleared her throat and tried to act as if nothing had happened, even though it was a little late for that.

"Oh, hi Chase! I'm fine, how are you?" She replied, trying to act casual.

"Skye, you don't have to pretend nothing's wrong. I saw you were upset, and I wanted to help you." Chase admitted.

Skye blushed, realizing that Chase had seen her crying. Feeling ashamed, she tried not to make eye contact with him. However, she did feel a bit better he was here. She liked seeing Chase's caring and worrying side, not to mention, she didn't mind the shepherd putting his arm around her.

"It's nothing. I just kind of had an argument with Everest. I don't want to talk about it." Skye admitted, not mentioning the reason behind their argument for obvious reasons.

"Are you sure?" insisted Chase.

"Yeah.. I'll be fine. Thanks." Skye smiled. She wasn't lying. Chase comforting her made her feel a lot better. It gave her hope that Everest's comment wasn't true.

"If you say so." Chase trusted her, now trying of how to cheer her up, "Wanna have a Pup Pup Boogie stand off upstairs?"

This made Skye's mood lighten instantly.

"Only if you're ready to lose." She challenged back at him.

"We'll see about that." Chase said, happy that Skye was acting like herself again.

They were about to enter the Lookout when their puptags rang. The pups in the hideout received the signal as well.

"Paw Patrol, to the Lookout!" Ryder said.

"Ryder needs us!" The pups in the hideout all exclaimed, dashing out of the tunnel, towards the Lookout.

Meanwhile, Chase and Skye made their way into the elevator and sighed in disappointment.

"Looks like I'll have to beat you a different time." Chase chuckled.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say." She rolled her eyes+

The two only had moments to turn their head to see the other pups darting towards the Lookout.As usual, Marshall, plowed over everyone, sending them all flying into the elevator. They all landed in a huge dogpile, and by circumstance, Skye was situated on top of Chase's chest, with their muzzles nearly touching. The two took notice of the position and blushed. They both got feelings of butterflies and loved how close they were to each other, but didn't want to make it obvious. They quickly both stood up and got into their positions before any of the other pups could notice and point anything out.

"Sorry." Chase whispered to the cockapoo.

"Me too." Skye softly replied.

The last thing they wanted was to be centred out and have their crush assume that they like them. They may have confessed to their friends, but saying to each other's face was a whole new obstacle.+
When the elevator reached the top, the pups lined up and awaited the task that Ryder had at hand for them.
"Ready for action Ryder, sir!" Chase said his line.
"Thanks for coming so quickly pups," Ryder thanked them, while putting Everest on the big screen at the same time.
Whenever, Ryder would put on Everest as well, it usually meant that all of the pups were needed, implying there was a big mission to be accomplished, The pups were prepared for Ryder to assign them their jobs, but it turned out there was no mission. It was merely just a special announcement for him and the pups.
