One week later
All the pups bounded to City Hall. They were all hoping to win, but it was Chase who was the most nervous.
If I win, he thought, I could take Skye somewhere. Maybe even get the courage to see if she likes me the way I like her...
"Ummm, Chase," Marshall said.
Chase's ears jumped as he turned to the dalmatian, confused.
"You were dozing off again, Chase. Is something wrong...?"
Chase shook his head violently. "No, Marsh, I'm fine."
Marshall looked in the direction Chase faced. "You like Sk-"
Marshall was cut off by the mayor. "Here is the drawing..." Mayor Goodway closed her eyes and picked a sheet of paper from the shoebox. "Chase and Skye are our winners!
Yes!
Chase looked at Skye, who smiled back.

That evening, when all the other pups were asleep, Chase and Skye looked at a map together, both pointing out places they wanted to visit.
As Chase went back to his pup house afterwards, he thought about what was happening.
It was just too good to be true.
Wasn't it?
