Paw patrol: Truth or dare

Chapter 6

"Ah, nothing like a good lunch after a big prank," said Marshall, rubbing his tummy while Rocky gathered the empty food bowls for the dishwasher in the kitchen.

"I still can't believe that you got my entire family to get in on that prank," said Chase as he licked the last of his food bowl. "I wonder what they would have reacted if you hadn't told them?"

"I'm just glad it wasn't my folks," muttered Zuma, shaking his head.

"Why? Are they anti-gay?" asked Rocky, raising an eyebrow.

"No, they just wanna an excuse to come down and pawty," giggled Zuma. "My pawents are big pawty dogs, dude."

The seven pups made their way back to the living room, where the bottle waited for them. "You guys want to start again?" asked Chase, pointing at the bottle.

"Nah, I still wanna take a break," said Skye, scratching her ears.

"Me too," said Rubble as did a few others.

"Aw, but I just got here," said Everest with a tiny whimper.

"Um, well," Marshall gulped he tried to think of a way to please his crush. "You and I could play one on one for a bit?"

Everest beamed at Marshall. "Really? Cool, let's play the game a bit outside!"

Everest giggled as she made for the doors leading outside. Marshall's own smile erupted into full and he tried to catch up. Of course, he ended up getting his rear paws trapped in some play rope that had him roll up and smash head first into the door. The other pups winced as Marshall slowly peeled his face off and shook it back to normal. "I'm good!" he said before hopping his way outside with a few howls.

"That pup..." said Rubble, shaking his head. "Gotta give him credit for being so dedicated to his crush."

"Kind of a shame that Everest doesn't see it like we do," said Skye with a sigh. "I hope one day I'll get a pup who's just in love with me one day."

Every male pup, minus Chase, gave a knowing look at the police pup whose only response was a blush. "I-I-I'm sure you'll find him someday," said Chase with a nervous smile.

Skye turned to him with one of her own and nuzzled him. "Aww, thanks Chase. You're such a good friend."

"Anyway," said Zuma, stepping forward,"womance aside, what are we gonna do for the bweak?"

A yawn from Rubble quickly gave his answer. "I'm gonna take a quick snooze, wake me up when we're gonna play truth or dare again."

"I guess I'll check on Ryder and see how he's doing on his trip," said Rocky as he made his way to the elevator while Rubble went to a nearby doggie bed and sat down. The bulldog was out like a light in three seconds.

"Guess I'll go see what Womeo and Juliet are up too," said Zuma as he made for the outside door.

This left both Skye and Chase on their own. An awkward silence erupted as neither side made contact with each other or said anything. Oh, man. Come on, Chase. Think of something you idiot. Think of something!

"Hey, Chase?" asked Skye, rubbing the back of her neck. "I wonder if you could listen to what I have to say..."

"Uh, sure. Anything for you, Skye," said Chase, doing his best to stand straight and think right.

Skye pawed the ground a bit, looking nervous. "See... I've kinda... wanted to tell you something and... I guess since we're alone now is the best time."

N-n-n-n-no way! thought Chase as his heart skipped a beat. Is she... is she...

"I know it might seem a bit weird to come out and say this... but I feel that I need to be honest," sighe Skye as he pressed her paw against her heart and closed eyes. Chase's tail was wagging like there was no tomorrow as he felt himself slowly entering cloud nine.

Oh my gosh! Shes going to confess! Yes, Skye! I love you! I love you so much! Please go out with me, then marry me, mate me, have pups with me, raise them with me, watch them grow up with me, get old with me, and die with me in a warm lasting embrace by the fire before our souls head up into that great beyond for eternity!"

"The truth is Chase..."

"Yes?!" asked Chase eagerly.

"You're getting fat."

"... what?"

"Well, it's something I noticed. You're belly is really bigger than it was a few months ago, and your butt is definitely squeezing out of your pup suit," pointed out Skye. "I think you need to stop eating so many late night treats and exercise a bit more."

"... my butt is fat?"

"Well maybe not fat," droned Skye, trying to find the right words. "Chubby? Flabby?"

"Oh... okay," said Chase slowly nodding his head as he sat down. "I'll.. I'll fix that..."

"Okay, great! See ya then," said Skye as he happily hummed towards a different room.

Chase just sat there in silence for a bit before he made his way towards the elevator and took it up. Rocky had just finished calling Ryder about what was going on when he saw Chase appear with a zoned out look. "Hey, Chase," said Rocky with a smile. "What's up?"

All of a sudden, Chase dived into Rocky's chest and started to cry. "Skye thinks I'm faaaaaat! Waaaaah!"

"Um, what?" asked Rocky who was completely confused by this... and feeling very awkward.

"Skye says a I got a big butt and she doesn't love me because of itttt," whined the pathetically sobbing german shepherd. "Why do I have such an ugly and big butttttt..."

All Rocky could do was just gently pat Chase on the back while wishing he was somewhere else right about now. I swear, I'm never falling in love if it makes pups this pathetic...

"Hit me with a truth!" said Marshall, having just finally cleared his nose of the grass Everest dared him to inject in his nostrils. Of course he got back by daring her to lick the tire ends off Ryder's ATV.

"Hmm, what breed would you be if you could choose to replace your own?" asked Everest.

"Shiba Inu, you?" asked Marshall.

"Probably a collie," said Everest, rubbing her chin. "You're turn."

"Truth!" said Marshall, proudly.

"What's the scariest moment you ever had to face in your life?" asked Everest, grinning. Instead of an embarrassed look, Everest got a look of terror as Marshall shivered and whimpered. "M-Marshall?"

"S-sorry, it's just that..." Marshall gulped as he thought back to that day. "Do you really want to know? It's not happy... not at all..."

"I..." Everest looked at Marshall straight in the eye and saw just how uncomfortable he looked. "N-no. You don't have to. If it's that painful..."

The two were interrupted by the arrival of Zuma who greeted them both with a shout. "What's up dudes?"

"Oh. Hey, Zuma," said Marshall, grateful for the distraction. "I'm going to see if Chase and the others are ready for the next round. Mind keeping Everest company while I go? Thanks, bye!"

Everest tried to reach out for Marshall, but the dalmatian was already halfway towards the door by the time he finished. Zuma looked at the retreating Marshall with a raised eyebrow before turning to Everest. "Did something happen?"

"I don't know," answered Everest, lowering her ears. "I asked him what was the scariest moment in his life was... I didn't think it was that bad."

"Oh, I see," said Zuma with a saddened look in his eyes. Upon seeing the curious look on the snow pup's face, he sighed and replied, "It's not my place to say, but I will say this. The fact that he's still walking and smiling is amazing." He turned around and was about to follow back to the Lookout until he stopped and turned to Everest. "Hey, Everest? Can you do me a big favor?"

"Sure, what is it?" asked Everest.

Zuma smirked as he walked over and whispered something into her ear.
