Paw Patrol: Unleashed

Chapter 7: Game day!

Rubble's Pov

Today is the big day! It's Homecoming game day!! I've been waiting all year for this along with the rest of the football team. It's finally my time to show the school what I'm made of and I'm ready to kick some ass. I hop out of bed and run to the bathroom to brush my teeth. I feel great but I don't necessarily look so great. I take my comb and run it through my fur a few times. I put on my bow tie and look in the mirror. Hello there hot stuff! Haha!

I make my way downstairs for breakfast. This is odd... Usually everyone's down here by now..

"SURPRISE!" Everyone screams at the same time, jumping out from behind their hiding spots.

"Oh my fuck guys!" I say startled but laughing.

"We wanted you to have a surprise breakfast to start your big day off." Skye says coming over with my favorite: pancakes.

"Oh Skye you didn't.." I say.

"Oh but I did." She smirks. The boys crowd around and sing 'For he's a jolly good fellow', and we all laugh. The sun is just now rising and I can tell that today is going to be great.

After breakfast we all hop in our cars and start for school.

"Sup Rubble!" "Aye, check it out it's the quarterback." "Ready to win this game?" "Hey Rubbie!" Other dogs say as I pass by them.

I get to my first class and so far the day's going great. The cheerleaders in my class are extra chatty with me today and I hardly pay attention to the lesson at all. But who cares today is about me, and my big game. I love my team and my sport and I sure as hell love the game!

Rosie's Pov

Today is Rubble's big day and I'm so excited for the game tonight. But I've been kinda hoping Marshall will ask me to homecoming which is tomorrow night and he hasn't already. I know we've only known each other for a short amount of time, but I feel like something's there. Like when I look into his eyes I see this spark and I don't get like that with anyone else. I could literally talk about him for hours, no joke. I'm really starting to like him and most of the other girls have already gotten asked to the dance. I know Everest really wants Rocky to ask her, but they barely know each other... I wish the best of luck to us both though, and even if Marshall doesn't ask me I'll understand because we just met as well. Wow I'm overthinking this.. Oh well guess we'll just see what happens..

"Hey Rosie," Everest says with a sigh, plopping into the desk beside me, and breaking my concentration.

"Oh hey what's up Ev?" I say shaking off my thoughts.

"Not much really..." She pauses.

"Do you think Rocky will ask me to homecoming?.. -I know we like just met and everything and that homecoming's tomorrow but the game's tonight and well.. I dunno it sounds kinda crazy, never mind.." She says, quickly ending her thought.

"You know Ev, I was just thinking about that.." I say contemplating once more.

"Really? Like about me and Rocky, or homecoming in general?.." She wonders.

"Both. I was thinking about you and Rocky, and me and Marshall." I say. "But I don't know if either one is up for dates, or relationships or anything.. I mean they are pretty much famous and can have whatever they want so I don't see why they'd want two commoners off the streets to join their group. Not to say there's anything wrong with us Ev, but I'm just saying they could be dating movie stars and driving fancy cars so I don't see why they'd go for us, you know?..."

"Yea, you're probably right Rosie.." Everest says with a sigh, I see the defeat in her eyes. "

"I'm overthinking this though.. So don't believe me, I really don't know anything about relationships...." I reassure.

The bell rings for first period and we drop our conversation, though both of us still have the thought drifting through our minds.

After class is over we head to our lockers together and the whole Paw Patrol 'group' is no where to be found..

Everest and I make our way to the cafeteria for break and the halls seem somewhat deserted. The closer we get to the cafeteria the louder it gets and we exchange confused glances. What's going on??...

We walk into the cafeteria and it seems as if everyone is waiting for us. The groups of people oddly spread out to make way for us while everyone's eyes lay on us.

Another group of people move out of our way and that's when we see them: Marshall and Rocky are each standing on a chair holding up a big blue poster. 'Everest and Rosie, it would be an honor if you joined the patrol for homecoming'.

I couldn't believe my eyes. My overthinking had thrown me off so much I completely looked this over. My heart sinks and I can't cover up my Rosie-red cheeks. I run over to Marshall who hops off the chair and I jump into his arms. I wrap my arms around him tightly. Everyone starts clapping and cheering.

"I never thought you'd ask..." I say in our hug.

"You thought wrong." He smirks, looking me in the eyes. My heart drops again, only to be interfered by the whole crowd gasping.

We both turn around and Everest had fainted. I start laughing along with Skye. I guess we're the only ones here who knows she's only fainted over being too excited about Rocky.

Rocky's face didn't help at all, Skye and I just laughed even harder. Oh boy, is he in for a treat; and so am I.

Rocky's Pov

The crowd moves out of Rosie and Everest's way revealing our little surprise. The whole crowd cheers and claps and Everest looked so excited. Rosie and Marshall jumped in each others arms with excitement but right as I get to Everest she faints in my arms. Am I that sexy? Ha! Who knew. Just kidding but it did scare the shit out of me at first.

I check her heart rate, fine. I listen to her breathing, fine. She's not over heated... I can't find the problem.

Her eyes flutter open only to find me over top of her for the second time.

"You again?..." She says giggling and slightly dazed. I help her sit up and we exchange eye contact for a brief moment and then she licks my cheek and says "Of course I'll go to homecoming with you Rocky."

Everyone starts cheering and clapping once more and we all go sit at a table as everyone settles down. Lots of friends and even pups we don't know stop by and congratulate us four.

"Oh my god! You four are on everyone's stories." Skye says handing us her phone as proof.

"Wouldn't be surprised if you guys were the two couples of the year." Zuma says with an honest smile.

I look over at Everest who looks back at me and we smile at each other. Her shyness is so cute though I'm not any better. We both laugh and blush. Marshall and I came up with this last night, pretty last minute, but we pulled it off perfectly. I don't know my true feelings for Everest but I guess you could say I have a crush on her for now and we'll figure it out along the way. She's so beautiful, and everything about her I'm drawn to. I don't know how she feels, but I'm so excited for tonight and tomorrow.
