A Faith Feeling

Chapter 6

Hours passed, and the two pups are still asleep. Shasta unconsciously let go of her stuff bear, and moved closer to the German Shepherd, sides touching each other. The rest of the pup who were still playing saw this and grinned.

"Awww they're so adorable!" Skye said grinning from ear to ear.

"Even their unconscious, they are inseparable."

"Yea. I been told that we they first met, they remain close for each other." Said Rubble.

"Yea, but do you think brother and sisters do that?" Rocky said, pointed at the two sleeping pups. The others continue to look on and gasped, Shasta had gone closer and nuzzled Chase's side with a small smile. This made Chase to huff but didn't do much about it.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Said Zuma, looking at the others.

"Big deal, maybe she just having a nice dream." Said Rubble, wondering why everyone got so tensed.

"But I don't nuzzle someone when I have good dreams, I surely wouldn't do that." Pointed out Marshall.

"It doesn't mean anything, though. I agree with Rubble, maybe she just having a good dream." Skye said

"Paw Patrol, to the lookout!"

"Ryder needs us" The group said and hurried to the elevator. The sudden alarm, woke the two pup. They groan as they had awaken from the call. Why does my side feel so warm suddenly? Chase thought. Chase took a glance at his bestfriend, which quickly learned that she abandoned her stuff wolf and chose chase to cuddle with.

Something about the scene made Chase disturbed greatly, and without thinking, he made a quick hop to his feets which made Shasta fall over from the sudden move.

"Sorry Shasta." Smiled Chase sheepishly. Why did I freak like that?

"Oh its fine Chase, but now we need to hurry, Ryder is calling."

He moved because of me..Thought Shasta which gave herself a frown.

The whole pups worked at the fashion show, setting up lights, speakers and more.

"Hey, Shasta can you take Rocky up there so he can fix the light is loose." Command Ryder.

"Will do Ryder!" Shasta said

She shoot her wired rope that is hooked, on the bars of the light. As Shasta has taken the mix breed up, Rocky notice the expression of the malador face.

"Your thinking about Chase huh?" Rocky pointed.

"Huh? W-well, m-maybe. Why do you ask?" Said Shasta.

"Well, your expression say it all, but its ok thought. Your secret is safe with me." Rocky said.

"Thanks Rocky, but i don't know if he likes me or not.."

"Why do you say that?"

"It's just the way he acts around Skye, also I don't think I should confess to him."

"You have too, Shasta." Said Rocky eyeing her.

"Are you crazy!?! I would never do such a thing!" Horror took upon Shasta. Rocky flinched a little, and patted Shasta back.

"Why is it so crazy for you to confess to Chase, its not like he gets mad or hate you for something so small." Rocky said.

"But you don't know him though...you just don't him that well Rocky. I-I'm scared of him...Im scared of his attitude, his anger, his rage towards me..." Whimpered Shasta. Rocky only stood there quietly, listening to the silence of the Alaskan Malador.

"I'm afraid of Chase, Rocky. I don't like seeing him mad. It just terrified me.."

Rocky only stood there quietly.

"Remember when we were young, the day that I accidentlly broke his toy. Remember?" Shasta took her teary glance at Rocky.

"Yea. He was pretty mad.." Rocky looked down. "But he really didn't mean those things right?"

"Thats I ran away that day, I couldn't bare to look at those hateful eyes he gave me that day, the fury that he had. It so difficult to not make me remember that day, but I couldn't. I was always afraid him.." said Shasta looking down.

Shasta began to softly quivered her lips. "It just hurt that I keep thinking about it, the way he looked at me.."

"Hey Rocky! How the stage lights doing!" Shouted Ryder from the lower distance.

"Alittle trouble with the bulb but I should be able to fix it!" Shouted back.

Ryder gave a thumbs and head back toward the mayor. Rocky turned to Shasta, "Maybe, he could be mad at you, but also he will find it in his heart soon. Just give it time, maybe he'll know."

With that Rocky return to his focus on the job, just screwdriving the nails. Shasta just looked down, should she tell him? Will he get mad and hate her forever? Will she have Chase all to herself again?

Shasta was lost in thoughts, and decided to help someone else to distract herself from her negative thoughts.

"Hey Katie, do you need a paw from those crates you are holding?" Shasta said.

"Thank you for the help Shasta, but I'm fine without a help right now." Shasta drowned a little, she needs to find a way to escape from her thoughts.

She took a glance over to Skye. No, She is with Rocky right now. She looked over at Marshall. Can't.

As she made her way towards for any direction, then a bump of two pups.

Shasta looked at the pup, and Chase was in front of Shasta. Her heart pounded with each beats of her red blush across her face.

"Oh, sorry Shasta. Just gotta move these stuff over to the makeup room." Sheepishly smile Chase.

"Oh, well d-do you need help?"

"No, I think I got it."

An awkward silence tensed the air, "I think I'm just gonna go now." With that, Chase had left the scene with Shasta standing there. Alone.

He....left me. .

"Look out!" Rocky shouted, when suddenly a stage light has collapsed to the ground. Luckily, Shasta dodged the fall.

"Woah, is everyone ok?" Chase running the scene

They all were ok but not one.

Chase turned to find Shasta limbing, trying her to walk. Chase ran foreground, "you ok Shasta?" A worried tone of his voice break upon him.

Struggling to get up, Shasta denied his help to pick herself up. "Thanks Chase, but I think I can get up."

She pressured her paws on the terrian,eluded herself back, whimpering.

"I'll take that as a no." Chase said.

Ryder then reached the scene of the calamity. He scrutinized Shasta's injury, and a high ranked of blood losing.

"Chase, do you think you can carry Shasta on to your cruiser?"

"Will do Ryder."

With Chase along the way to Shasta, lifted her up onto his back. The touch made Chase a little intimidating, and felt his face flushing. Calm down, you are just helping your best friend. He began trucking her to his cruiser.

Meanwhile, Shasta was deliriously jubilant.

Chase would be a great mate. She thought, burrowing the pup under her. The response cause Chase to freeze in place, No, don't react like. You've got injured pup in your hands.

He began to feel conflicted to vivacity but decided to ignore it. I got to figure this out.
