Unspoken Heart | PAWPATROL

Everyone still calls Chase brave. Loyal. Strong.
He nods, smiles, pretends the words don't sting.

They don't see it. the way his paws shake when the radio goes quiet. The way the silence feels heavier than any mission.

He tells himself it's fine. Just another long day. Just another night without sleep. But when the noise fades and he's finally alone, the mask slips. The uniform isn't armor anymore. It's a cage.

He remembers when he loved the sirens. Now, they sound like ghosts calling him back to something he can't fix.

He closes his eyes. Feels the world spin beneath him.
"Get it together, Chase," he whispers.
But his voice breaks halfway through.
