Skye's Pov
I wake up to the sun shining brightly through the sheer blinds in my bedroom. Last night was lots of fun and Everest and Rosie picked up cheering faster than anyone I've ever seen before. They did a lot better that I expected. Anyways.. Today is not only Saturday, not only homecoming day, but it's also me and Chase's anniversary! We've been dating for a whole year now (Because he asked me to be his girlfriend last year at homecoming)!

I throw on some clothes and carefully place my dress in a bag with my accessories and makeup. I grab my keys and the note I wrote for Chase last night and tip toe down the hall and peek into Chase's room. He sleeps peacefully curled up in a ball which brings a smile to my face. I quietly make my way over to him and move the extra fur on his head out of his face gently placing a kiss on his cheek.

"Happy anniversary baby." I place the note on his side table and sneak out of his room. I hop into the slide leading to my car and once I'm situated in my seat, I start the car transforming it into that cute little helicopter we all know and love and fly to Everest's house.

I find Rosie and Everest in Everest's kitchen making waffles. Mmm.

"GOOD MORNING BABIES!!" I say excitedly.

"AHHHH!!! GOOD MORNING SUNSHINE!!" Rosie says, as Everest is already greeting me with a big hug.

"Sooooo.. How was last night you two?" I smirk, taking a seat at the counter and resting my head on my paws, tail wagging.

"Well, me and Rocky went to the park by the old church and watched the sunset. It was probably the most stereotypical cliche moment like in all of those romance movies, but it really was perfect. Those movies don't lie.." Everest sighs with a twinkle in her eye.

"I guess you could say I had a perfect moment too except it was a bit more risqué..." Rosie smirks, licking syrup off her paws.

"Ooo, tell me more." I say intrigued. Everest laughs, clearly having already heard this story.

"After everyone left and we were the only ones on the field, Marshall tricks me into thinking he broke his paw and before I know it I'm on the ground with him on top of me. The security guard screamed at us from across the field and started to chase us, so we escaped and ended up soaked in a ditch in the woods behind the field and then we went around and vandalized some shit. It was illegally romantic." Rosie daydreams with a smile.

"Damn guys, Chase and I just went home and had a few drinks.. Lucky duckies.." I say laughing.

"Wellll, tonight will be better because it's your... ANNIVERSARY!!" Both girls Finnish at the same time and hug me.

"Awe thanks guys." I blush.

"So, what are the plans?" Rosie says. I smirk and exchange looks between both of them.

"You will see.." I say still smirking.

"Dude c'mon, you gotta tell us!" Everest pleads.

"Yeah, spill those beans." Rosie chimes in.

"Nope-ity nope nope!" I say walking to the fridge to get out the orange juice.

"Damnit Skye! I wanna know now! Who would we tell?.." Rosie says reassuring our trust.

"Ok ok fine! I'll tell you!!" I say laughing, I knew I'd give in.

I tell them my plan and they love it and promise to keep their snouts sealed. Before we know it it's time to start getting ready and after lots of prepping and pampering we each look amazing. Sure we may have looked good last night for the game... But damn.. We look indescribable now..

Rocky and Marshall arrive to pick up their beautiful dates and Everest's parents insist they take pictures. We all part ways and I hop in my car and make my way to the dance (don't worry, it's all apart of the plan ;) ). Sure we've been dating for a year now, but he still gives me butterflies, and as of right now they're overwhelming. I don't have any doubts about my plan, it's perfect and I know he will love it.. I'm just a little nervous..

Chase's Pov
The covers are warm and comforting as I wake up. I sit up in my bed and spot a letter with my name and a heart beside it. Skye. I smile. The letter reads:
My dearest Chase,
Meet me at the dance tonight,
I promise you'll love it.
Love,
Skye
I think about our previous celebrations, and what she might have in store this time.. We usually just go out to dinner every other month to celebrate but this sounds a bit more formal.. Lol get it? Cuz it's homecoming.. Anyways I've got a lot to do for tonight as well.. She's not the only one with big plans for tonight.

When it's time to go to the dance I hop into my car and check myself out in the mirror. I carefully pin on my corsage and take a deep breath. I think back to last year at homecoming when I finally asked her to be my girlfriend. It was a great moment.. And tonight's about to be even better.

When I get to the dance, lots of couples smile at me and make their way inside. Everyone looks amazing. I hand in my ticket and spot the gang on the other side of the room at a table. I grab some punch, which has already been spiked, and walk over to my friends. Rosie and Everest have big smiles on their faces, hinting that Skye told them about her plans. Everest wears a beautiful springtime green dress and Rosie of course wears Red; might I add a very sexy red dress that she pulls off very well.

Rubble greets me with a fist bump and a big bro hug and the others follow.

"Hey, where's your date, lover boy?" Zuma teases, his voice sounding somewhat scratchy.

"The real question is: where's yours?" I say with a laugh and I playfully pat him on the back.

"Oh fuck you Chase." Zuma says laughing along. He's more of a one night stand kinda guy. He respects girls and all but he sees it as: "why only have one girl when you can have 'em all?" And honestly all of us boys in the Paw Patrol thought like that at some point in our lives, we just found girls that we couldn't live without and fell in love. Rubble's a lot like Zuma in that sense except he treats girls like they're all perfect while Zuma only charms them all with his bad-boy personality. But both strategies work for each of them so I guess that's all that matters.

I walk around and talk to other friends of mine and drink more punch. I can feel the music beating through my feet and the different colored lights dance around the room along with all the other pups. I look around to see if I can find Skye, but she's nowhere in sight. I wonder what she's up to..

Mr. Mullin, the principal makes his way up to the stage as the song finishes.

"Hello North Park High! I think this homecoming has turned out even better than last years, what do you think?" The crowd yells and cheers and Mullin quiets them once more to finish his announcements. "Without further or do, I would like to announce this years homecoming king and queen. Drumroll please." The crowd now stomps their feet and Mullin unfolds his little piece of paper.

"This years homecoming king and queen are:.... CHASE AND SKYE!!" All the sudden a spot light shines on me and the crowd moves to let me through. I look up on stage to see Skye in a beautifully elegant pink dress walking down the steps towards me. With each step closer my heart stops and I feel like it's all happening in slow motion. She is so perfect. When she reaches me, she places the King's crown on my head and kisses me. The Dj starts the slow dance song and it's the very song that we danced to last year when we had our first kiss.

"Oh my god, Skye, this is amazing." I say, breath taken, as we start dancing.

She looks into my eyes and smiles, "I'm glad you like it."

"How did you know we'd be king and queen??" I say still confused and shocked and excited.

"Let's just say I know people.." She smiles again.

"God your beautiful baby. I wish this moment would never end.." I admit.

"Then let's make it last." She responds. She looks up at me and kisses me for the second time and the crowd cheers and applauds. Perfect.
