Qibli walked into his and Winter's room, apparently they had a third clawmate, a seawing named Turtle. Turtle was laying in his pool where he slept. Qibli walked up to Winter and shook him awake, "Waky waky my beloved ice hearted princ-" Winter grabbed Qibli's snout and glanced around before quietly growling "Shut up, I don't want anyone to know that I have to marry you!"

Qibli smiled and said "Well Icicle and Sunny already know, obviously, so eventually someone's gonna find out, why keep it secret?" Winter growled "I wish to at least keep my reputation here." Qibli smiled as suddenly Turtle came up from the water and said "Um...  I kinda heard everything... so you two are married?"

Winter growled at Turtle "Tell anyone and I'll freeze your face off." Turtle jumped back a bit and said nervously "I- I promise to keep it a secret." Winter grumbled as he exited the room, Qibli turned toward Turtle and said with a smile "Don't worry about him, he's just worried he won't be able to be the perfect husband for me."

Turtle chuckled at Qibli's clear joke. Qibli smiled and said "Make sure you don't tell anyone, I'm sure Prince snow just wants our wedding to be a surprise!" Qibli chuckled a bit as he continued, "Anyway I'm gonna go make sure Sunny doesn't tell anyone."

Qibli started toward Sunny's cave, suddenly he ran into Moon, "Oh, hi Qibli, how's Winter?" Qibli replied "He's grumpy and unhappy about ou-" Qibli stopped himself before he could finish his sentence, he almost told another dragon about his and Winter's marriage, Winter would never love him if he ever ruined his reputation.

Moon then said "I'm sure you and Winter must be having problems of your own being Clawmates but I'm sure he'll warm up to you." Qibli smiled, Moon didn't know the full extent of it.

Qibli smiled and said "Thanks, anyway I have to go talk to Sunny, see you in class." And with that Qibli went to Sunny's cave.
