That's Why I Love You: A Marshall x Everest Collection

Christmas Special

Christmas arrived to Adventure bay and the members of the PAW Patrol were getting ready. It was the first Christmas with Everest on the team and all the pups were excited for it, one of them was even more excited than the others, even more than Everest.

"The tree is almost done, pups. We just need the lights and that would be all." Ryder commented looking at Rubble and Chase decorating the lower part of the tree.

"Here are the lights you asked for, Ryder." The boy heard from behind, he turned around to see Everest pushing a box with the tree lights.

"Oh, thanks, Everest." He said scratching the top of her head and taking the box on his hands.

"Ruff! Ladder!" Marshall barked from his fire truck as his ladder rose to the top of the tree with an extreme of the lights in his muzzle. "I got this, Ryder!" Ryder only smiled at the Dalmatian and proceeded to call Zuma.

"How's the turkey, Zuma?" He talked through his pup pad.

"It's great, dude!" He answered happily. "My kitchen is a palace; even Rocky is working on the potato salad!" the lab smirked with the last line.

"R-Rocky?" Ryder gulped, recalling on his mind what happened the last time Rocky got close to the kitchen. To make it short, Marshall had to put out a fire.

"Don't worry, I'll have an eye on him." Zuma whispered with a wink.

"Hey! You said I was doing great." Ryder barely heard Rocky.

"And you are dude!" Zuma exclaimed as the call ended.

"Alright, everything is almost done." Ryder said switching off his pup pad.

"The lights are ready." Marshall said descending from his ladder but stumbled in the third step and fell. "Look out!" When he was about to land, Ryder caught him on his arms.

"Thanks, Ryder!" Marshall said licking the boy's cheek. Ryder chuckled as he put him back to the ground.

"Ok, pups, the decorations are done! You are free to leave, go prepare for the party." Ryder announced. "But remember to be here at 10 o'clock. Everest, you should tell Jake that."

"He is going to be earlier; he just went for his cake."

"Ok then. Remember; 10 o'clock." Ryder said as entered in the tower.

"Pup Pup Boogie Christmas Edition?" Rubble muttered.

"Oh, you're on!" Chase said racing the English bulldog.

After parking his fire truck, Marshall decided to take a nap before lunch time. His truck transformed to his pup house and Marshall quickly entered and lied on his bed with his head out of it. But his sleep was interrupted by a female voice.

"Marshall?" He heard; he slowly opened his eyes to see somebody sitting in front of him.

"Uh? Oh. Everest." Marshall said raising his view to her. He stood up in front of her with a smile. "What do you need?"

"It's nothing. I just want you to help me with something."

"Oh. What is it?"

"I have to find a gift, for a guy." After hear this, his smile just fade away. "But I don't know what to give him."

"A gift? F-For a guy?"

"Yes, could you help me with it? I really need help with this." Everest begged for help.

"S-Sure... I-I would love to-" Marshall tried to answer, but his lounge lost his breath when she tackled him, making him take a step back, and quickly hugged him.
