Our Love Grows Stronger - A Foxodile/Hawkofox Story

Chapter 8: The Discovery

Dr. Fox continued to write down ideas for her essay, and the siblings both held many viles of water, dropping every one about 5 minutes after they grabbed it.

She continued to work on her essay, when Unikitty walked flew over. "We dropped all your serums. Sorry..."

"It's OK, why don't you go play around instead. Just don't touch anything."

Puppycorn was over by the wall, looking at a compartment built in it. "Sis! Look at this!"

Unikitty raced over to him. "Cool! What do you think is inside?"

Dr. Fox turned around to see what they were talking about. When she did, she regretted ever letting them in the lab. "Don't touch that!"

"Ooh!" The brother and sister said in unison. "What's in here?"

Dr. Fox started to blush. "Oh, nothing! Nothing at all! Why don't you play somewhere else?"

She started to push them over to by her computer. "Please don't touch anything else."

She looked back at her essay and wrote down one idea, before hearing a clacking noise.

"Cool! There's notes in here!"

Fox turned around and saw that her friends had opened the compartment.

Unikitty opened one. "It says "You are so cool". Huh."

"Put those back and leave them alone!"

Before she made it to them both, a heart popped out of Dr. Fox's head, squishing her down to the floor.

"OOOOOOOOH!" Puppycorn teased. "You've got a secret cruuuuuuuuuush!"

"No I don't!"

Unikitty pulled open another note. "This one says you wanna go get icecream with him! Ooh!"

They both started to bounce up and down. "Who is it? Who? WHO WHO WHO?"

Dr. Fox sat down, burying her face in her tiny hands.

The siblings exchanged looks. "You don't have to tell us who. We'll let you keep that private. Have you talked to him?"

Fox shook her head nervously.

"Why not?"

She didn't answer.

"Why not?" Unikitty asked again.

Nothing.

"WHY NOT?"

"Because I can't, OK?" Dr. Fox said angrily, as eyes filled up with tears. "His heart belongs to someone else. He would never love me."

Unikitty put her arm around her friend, Puppycorn doing the same.

"I want to talk to him... but I can't."

"I think you need to talk to the friend who had the same problem."

"No, I'll be fine. I don't need to talk to Hawkodile."

Unikitty glanced at her brother. He glanced back.

"Richard?" The former whispered.

"Richard."
