Ten minutes later
They met at the same place. When Chase saw his girlfriend, his heartbeat quickened. “S-Sky you look so b-beautiful!” Skye blushed. “You’re t-handsome too, Ch-Chase.” - Well, m-can we c-go? - Chase asked. “Let's go,” She smiled. And they went to the park. Chase was very worried the whole way, bad thoughts were gnawing at him from the inside. He thought about how things could go wrong. Skye saw that Chase was worried, but didn't show it. Finally they came to the park. They walked along familiar paths. Chase decided to start with the first step - offer to buy her something. - Sky, do you want anything? - Buy me ice cream. - Okay, which one? “I like banana,” Skye answered. Chase saw an ice cream truck nearby and walked up to it. - Hello. I'd like a banana cone, please. - Fine. This very second! Here you are. - Thank you very much, how much does it cost me? - Chase asked. “You have one dollar,” answered the ice cream man. “Here you go,” Chase put the money down and left. Chase returned to Skye and handed her the ice cream. - Thank you very much, Chase. “Yes, you’re welcome,” he said and blushed. And they walked until the evening. Chase decided to take Skye to the most beautiful place and confess his love there. And she completely forgot that she had a flight tomorrow, and said: — Chase. - What, Sky? “I need to wake up early tomorrow,” Skye said. - For what? - I have a plane tomorrow. I'm flying away. - W-what? - He definitely didn’t expect this. - How long are you leaving for? - For a week, but when I return, we will finish what we started. - Promise me that you will come back! — Chase said with excitement. “I promise, I’ll be back, Chase,” Skye sighed, “Let’s go back.” “How I felt in my ass that everything might not go according to plan,” Chase thought. When they returned to base, Skye immediately set her alarm for 04:30 so she could get ready. Chase was depressed and he met Marshall. - So, how was the date with your significant other? “Jokingly,” said Marshall. “I’m not in the mood for jokes right now,” Chase answered sadly. - Something happened? - Of course it happened! — The plan didn’t work? - Marshall asked. - No, at first everything went like clockwork, but when I wanted to take her to a beautiful place and confess, she said that she was flying away tomorrow. - How much? “For a week,” Chase replied. - I feel for you. By the way, what time does she fly away...? - Marshall asked. - I do not know this. - Okay, go get some rest. Marshall said. Chase went to his booth and went to bed. To be continue...Chapter 1. Skye gets the day off
November 14, 2023 at 2:06 PM
One day, a squad of puppies was returning home from a difficult mission. Everyone was tired, the puppies lay down in their kennels and dozed off. And Chase was thinking about how to confess his love to Skye, but he didn’t realize anything, and decided to think about it tomorrow.
The next day, Skye got up before everyone else and went to Ryder's room. He wasn’t sleeping either, Skye came up to him and said:
- Ryder, I would like to ask you for a week of rest.
Ryder looked at her and asked:
- Sky, what's the reason to take days off?
Skye answers him:
“It’s just that I haven’t seen my mother for a long time, the last time I saw her was eight years ago.”
“Okay, I’ll give you a week off,” Ryder answers. - But what will you fly on? You have a helicopter and wings under repair.
— I bought a plane ticket in advance.
— And when is the flight? - Asked Ryder.
“Tomorrow, at five in the morning,” Skye answered.
-Have you prepared everything?
- Yes, I have nothing to prepare.
All the puppies woke up. Chase went to Marshall for advice, he walked up to the booth and knocked on the door.
- Who's there? — Marshall asks in a sleepy voice.
- It's me, Chase. “I need your help,” he answers.
Marshall opened it and sleepily asked:
- What kind of help?
- In short, I come to you for advice... How can I confess my love to Skye?
— I’ll explain everything briefly: you need to invite her to go to the park with you. Then buy her ice cream or whatever she asks for. And the next day you give flowers and invite her on a date. Choose a secluded place and confess your love there. Nothing complicated?
“I guess not, but there’s one problem,” Chase said.
- And which one? - Marshall asked.
“I’ll stutter, and she just won’t understand me.”
“Pfft, it’s not a problem, you just need to calm down.”
“You’re right, I just need to calm down,” Chase said and thanked him for the advice.
Chase took deep breaths and tried to calm down, but his thoughts wouldn't leave him. He kept thinking about Skye and began to worry even more. But he carefully tried to throw them out of his head, breathed deeply, and slowly calmed down.
Chase decided to go to Skye right now and suggest they go to the park.
When he reached her booth, there was no one there. Chase went to Marshall to find out where she might be.
— Marshall, have you seen Skye?
- No, Chase, I didn’t. I thought she was sleeping.
- No, her booth is open. “I decided to invite Skye for a walk in the park, I come up, but no one is there,” Chase answers.
- Maybe she went to Ryder? — Marshall suggested.
- Maybe. Let's go to him.
- Let's.
Marshall and Chase went to Ryder, they walked to the elevator and rode to the top of the tower.
The sheepdog was excited. The friend noticed this, but did not show it. He knew Chase was nervous about the date.
When the elevator reached the tower, they saw Skye talking to Ryder. When she saw Chase, her heart sank.
- Well, w-w-sh-should I g-g-go? “She asked, stuttering.
- Yes OK. “You can go downstairs and wait for your friends there,” Ryder answered.
- O-okay, b-bye.
- Good morning, puppies. How did you sleep, what did you want?
- Good, Ryder. Nothing. Right, Marshall? — Chase asks his friend, smiling through force.
- Yes. Uh, we just wanted to know how you were doing,” Marshall said.
“I’m doing well, what news do you have?”
- No, nothing, everything is the same...
- OK then. Go downstairs. Skye must have been waiting for you.
The puppies got into the elevator and went down.
Skye saw Chase and Marshall coming down and quickly ran to her booth. When they came down, she was no longer there.
Chase figured she might have gone to her booth. Marshall remained at the base while he walked up to Skye's cabin and knocked on the door.
- Who's there?
- It's me, Chase. Go outside for five minutes.
Skye came out and asked:
- What did you want, Chase?
“I would like... to invite you... for a walk in the park,” he said, sweating.
- Wow! To the park! I haven't gone there for a long time! Okay, so be it, I'll go with you.
Chase didn't expect this answer.
- Okay, m-meet at this place in... ten minutes
“Okay, Chase, I'll be ready soon.”
When she started getting ready, Chase didn't waste his time either. He put on a black suit and tie, combed his hair and perfumed himself.
And Skye wore a pink dress.
