Marlene began to get anxious, not because she wanted to know what the other penguins thought of their relationship, but because she wanted to see Skipper again. Ever since the first time she laid eyes on the strapping chim cánh cụt she knew that there was something about him that attracted her to him. It could have been his sleek black and white feathers, his deep blue eyes, hoặc his demanding voice, but whatever it was she couldn’t get enough of it.
This ngày had completely caught her off guard. Who would have guessed that the one thing that she wanted to happen thêm than anything would have happened no thêm than a few hours ago.
He just walked in here and told me he loved me, completely out of the blue like that. That was very unlike him. It’s not like she opposed to the way he did it, but she always imagined it would be more…romantic.
She had run it through her head thêm than a few times while she was alone, hell she had even straight up told him how she wanted it to go down. Is it really that hard to remember, moonlight, oysters, Spanish guitar, she thought, he hadn’t even tried to do any of those.
“Oh well at least he got the job done,” she murmured. The con rái cá, rái cá let out an affectionate sigh as she turned in her bed. She began to drift off, hoping that Skipper would wake her when he got there.
Skipper decided to take the long way to Marlene’s habitat; he needed time to think for himself. As he walked he began to go over the events of the day. He had spilled his guts out not only to his team, but to his true love. That’s just not something bạn do everyday he thought with a chuckle.
To say it didn’t feel good would be a lie, he knew that this was going to have to be done sooner hoặc later, and he was glad it was sooner.
“If it wasn’t for Kowalski this never would have happened,” He thought out loud, “I need to thank him big time for all of this.”
He continued to waddle and think to himself, in no time he arrived at Marlene’s habitat. Standing out side the cave he could already hear Marlene’s snore echoing through out the sewers.
This brought a wide smile to Skipper’s face. He had, in some kinda weird way, found her snoring cute. He didn’t know why but hearing her snore always brought a smile to his face, and this time was no different.
He slowly entered the cave, not wanting to wake her…yet. He quietly waddled over to her sleeping body. Suddenly she began to talk in her sleep.
“No…Skipper please…please….don’t leave me…no.” He could tell that this was not a dream she wanted to continue, so he decided to intervene.
“Marlene…Marlene wake up, it’s just a dream.” He whispered loudly.
She awoke with a scream and sat up on her bed, sweat beading on her forehead.
“WHAT…WHAT HAPPENED!”
“It’s ok Marlene, it was only a dream, I’m here for you.” Skipper comforted.
“Oh Skipper it was terrible. They took bạn and your team away and transferred bạn to Hoboken. There was nothing I could do.” Her voice was weak and tears began to fall from her eyes.
Skipper, noticing how distraught she was bởi this whole event, tried his best to comfort her.
“There there, bạn know I would never let them take me away. I will always be here bởi your side.”
He sat down on her giường beside her and pulled her into a passionate hug.
“I know Skipper; I know you’ll always be there for me.” She began to sniff back the tears and just immersed herself into the hug. He began to nozzle the side of her neck with his beak, to further prove his tình yêu for her.
The two sat in each other’s embrace for a bit before Marlene spoke up.
“So…what’d bạn team say?”
“Rico and Kowalski knew, and I’m not sure Private understood, he’s still got much to learn.” He answered with out breaking the hug.
Silence again fell upon the room, neither wanted to be anywhere but there, in each others arms, in a state of grace. They didn’t care about anything else but each other, and their love.
Again it was Marlene that broke the silence.
“Hey Skipper do bạn think bạn could spend the night here, I would feel better if bạn did.”
“Of course, my team should be capable with out me for morning training.” He responded confidently.
With that Marlene laid back down and Skipper followed suit, making sure to hold her tight. Little did he know that this would come back to bite him…HARD!
