PAW Patrol: Pups with a Night to Remember.

Chapter 13: Preparatory Measures.

About an hour and a half has passed since Skye and Everest had initially arrived at Katie's. The young blonde was doing her absolute best to make the two pups shine. She washed them, trimmed them, combed them, and was making them look practically flawless.

Skye was really aiming to get Chase's attention tonight, and she was on the right track so far. Her whole outfit blended nicely, she was groomed to perfection, and looked undeniable cute without even putting on her makeup yet.

Katie had groomed Everest exquisitely as well, but she wasn't as worried about her makeup or her outfit as much as Skye was. After all, she wasn't planning on hooking up with anybody tonight.

Another half hour had gone by and they were finally done, looking prettier than ever. Katie had really done them well with the finishing touches and makeup. Their mascara was on point, nails clipped, polished, and painted, Skye having her nails pink with sparkles, and Everest having hers silver with sparkles. Finally, a spritz of perfume sealed the deal.

"Alright pups, you're all set! What do you think?" Katie asked, leading them over to a mirror.

"Wow Katie! It's.. it's.. amazing!" Skye struggled to say, in absolute awe at what a good job Katie had done. Everest nodded in agreement

"Thank pups," Katie giggled, "I did my best!"

"Wow Everest. You look stunning!" Skye said, turning towards and looking at the husky.

"Ohh stop it," she blushed, "But look at you though! If Chase doesn't fall for that, then he must be crazy."

"Ahh, so you were trying to impress someone." Katie winked at Skye.

Skye madly blushed. She was still uncomfortable with other people knowing how she felt about the german shepherd. However, she still appreciated Everest's comment.

"OOPS!" Everest blurted out, "Oh my gosh Skye I'm sorry, I-"

"It's okay Everest, I may have to get used to this anyway if I want anything to happen tonight," Skye faced the facts, "Just please don't tell him, or anybody, Katie."

"My lips are sealed!" Katie promised, "But I must admit, I always thought you and Chase would be cute together."

"Thanks Katie, I really appreciate it," Skye blushed, "Anyway, we better get going, we only have an hour before we have to leave! Thanks again Katie!"

"Anytime pups! I'll see you two later tonight!" She called as they made their way out the exit.

"You too!" they called back as the door shut behind them.

The two pups got in their vehicles, trying not to ruin how well they looked, and carefully drove back across the bridge to the Lookout. The both zoomed upstairs into the bathroom together, checking themselves out in the mirror, making sure they looked just as good as they did when the left Katie's salon. They planned on being in there basically until they had to leave. The two pups, especially Skye, would do anything to maintain the way they looked until the time of the party.

Meanwhile, back at the pup park, the guy pups had seen Everest and Skye make their way across the bridge back to the Lookout, which was their cue to head to Katie's and be groomed within the hour that they still had. They all rushed into the salon as fast as they could and found Katie, who had just finished filling up a fifth bath.
