Christmas surprise

Ship: Ryder x reader

Rating: 💗(🍋)

Au: you are Jakes sister (Part 2 of "Christmas dinner" you and Ryder are sixteen, if over read that)

"I don't care. If someone messes with her feelings, they'll regret the day they were born" Jakes voice was but a mere growl, his brown eyes seemed to stare into Ryders soul. However, Everest came to Ryders rescue, as she pawed at Jake: "Come on Jake! The gifts won't open themselves!"

Jake followed Everest to the huge Christmas tree. You were already sitting on a pillow on the ground, having Chase on your lap. "Ryder? Can we open the gifts already?!" Rocky asked, his tail was wagging with excitement. Zuma, Rubble and Marshall were no different, Everest and Skye begged with puppies eyes, and Chase, although seated on your lap, couldn't help but bug Ryder about when they got to open up their Christmas gifts. "Calm down, geez. The presents won't run away" Ryder chuckled as he sat down on the couch. "Remember: the wrapping paper goes right into this bag" Ryder rustled with a huge bag. You on the other hand, let your eyes wander over the presents.

✨flashback✨

Jake had just left the house, meaning you were alone with Ryder. Everest was gone too, so it was really just you two. "With whose gifts do we start?" "How about Chase?" "Are you picking favorites?" Ryder blushed and began denying it: "O-Of course I don't! I love all my puppies equally!" you chuckled and carefully emptied out the bag with the Christmas gifts for Chase. "that's some neat stuff" you said, inspecting the treats, the new gear, a new pillow and a new blanket.

"I mean.. those are his favorite treats and I thought he could use a new pillow and blanket." "Well.. I got him a few new toys. Like the old teddy bear he used to have?" "Officer Bear?" "Exactly." "Yeah, I remember... that was his first plushie." you grinned at Ryder, and showed him a picture on your phone. "I've sewn him a new one. It's almost as good as the original. Though I am afraid it doesn't have the lullaby thing." "Are you kidding? This one is perfect for Chase!"

You and Ryder began to pack the gifts for Chase, making sure that they looked nice and appealing to Chase's theme. You high-fived, moving on to pack the gifts for the other puppies. In the evening, Jake was gonna be home again to have a movie night with you and Ryder. Everest, Chase, Marshall, Skye, Zuma, Rubble and Rocky would be staying with Katie overnight. So you and Ryder moved on to prepare the snacks for the movie night.

✨flashback end✨

You could have smacked yourself for not seeing the obvious signs sooner. As you thought of that day, you recalled Ryder stealing glances at you. You had thought nothing off it until today, when Skye and Chase snitched that Ryder had feelings for you. And later that day, when you actually had the movie night, you remember leaning against Jake to rest. Ryder had cast Jake a jealous side eye, although you, again, had brushed it off as your imagination. "Y/n?" "Huh? Yes, Jake?" "Are you doing okay?" "Yea... just lost in thought." Your response was cut short by a cry of joy: Marshall had found a plush fire truck you had managed to get your hands on. The Dalmatian came running to you, the plushie held firmly in his jaws. He nudged you with his head, Marshalls eyes sparkled with joy. "Enjoying Christmas?" you asked as you raised a brow.

Marshall carefully placed his newfound treasure on the ground. "You bet I am! Can you keep an eye on my plush while I unpack my other gifts?" You chuckled but agreed. And just as expected, Marshal tangled himself in the wrapping paper. Ryder freed him though. "Did the evil wrapping paper strike again?" he teased the puppy. "Shut up! Y/n! Ryder was mean to me!" Marshal complained as he sought protection in your presence. You, Ryder and Jake broke into laughter. From the corner of your eye, you thought you had seen Ryder steal a glance at you.
