AN: I know I stated that this would just be a simple one shot, but I had several ideas for a part 2, and so here I am. To be fair, this chapter is a bit short, but here it is anyways.

Everes giggled, slowly escorting Chase out of his pup house. A sock was put around his nose to prevent him finding out where they were going using his amazing sense of smell. She slowly led him towards the bridge, being extra careful, not wanting the pup to accidentally fall off and drown, although it was very unlikely. She brushed against him, letting him get a sense of what direction she was heading, to which he would follow. After a minute or two of traversing the bridge, she slowly brung him to Katie's shop, making sure not to activate the automatic doors, instead, bringing him in from the back, a much more sneaky route. She pushed him inside of the shop, and shut the door behind her, smirking deveously. She had already set up an arrangement with Katie, so they technically weren't sneaking in the store... Well, they were, but for good reason.

Everyest smiled, the coast being clear. She walked behind Chase, a big pool of icy water in front of him. "So Chase, remember Valentines Day?"

"Oh, yeah. That's when we started hanging out much more frequently," Chase smiled, oblivious to what was going on.

"Yep. And do you remember that terrible mood I was in, the week leading up to that," she smirked.

"Yeah, but then Jake sent you a letter, and that lifted your spirit," he chuckled.

She giggled, "hehe, yep. Well, except for one thing," she smiled devilishly. "I know you forged the letter Chase," she smirked.

A chill was sent down Chase's spine, hearing Everest, letting out an audible gulp, slowly removing his blindfold to see the pool of icy water. "What the?"

Everest smirked before running at him, using all of her strength to shove him into the pool, successful in doing so.

"BWAH," shouted Chase, being shoved into the freezing cold waters. It felt like -10000° degrees inside, despite it being impossible, regardless, it was cold, very cold. He grunted, rushing to escape the water, but slipping and falling due to the ice cubes under him. Everest only giggled, watching him struggle to escape the icy death trap.

Chase, after a minute or so, finally escaped the trap, shivering rapidly, teeth chattering. Everest laughed, looking at the pup, finding her revenge a big win on her end. Chase was still too cold to even say a word.

Everest sighed, thinking enough was enough, dragged a blanket over, then drapping it over Chase's backside. Chase pulled the blanket close to him, letting out a loud sneeze, mumbling swears under his breath.

"That's why you don't trick me Chase, I always find out. You didn't even sound like Jake in the letter," she smirked.

"N-N-Noted," Chase managed to say, still shivering.

Everest laughed, "I think you got what you deserved, but now it's time to warm you up," she smiled sympathetically. She walked over before nuzzling up to his chest, catching Chase off guard. He looked down to her, watching her tail wag, and Everest smile. He blushed, although the blush wasn't too visible, thankfully. He could feel his own heart beat, feeling... Warm.

Everest continued to nuzzle into his fur, enjoying it herself. She noticed his heartbeat, which she placed her ear to his chest to hear. She giggled, looking up to give his cheek a lick. He gasped, looking away, "w-why'd you have to go and do that for," he muttered aloud.

She laughed, then giving him a small kick to his foreleg. "Stop being so easy to make blush," she giggled.

He flinched, this only making the current blush grow. "Ngh! I'm so getting payback!"

"Ha! I'd like to see you try," she smirked, walking away, waving her tail in the air proudly and she made it to the door.

"Where do you think you're going?!" Chase got up, rushing over. He quickly jumped in front of her, smirking.

"Oh? Does Chase-y want a challenge," she snickered, followed by licking her lips.

Chase smirked, running at her. Everest readied herself, quickly stepping to the right. Chase was one step ahead of her though, quickly tackling her, already knowing she would try and attempt it. He successfully tackled her, and pinned her onto her back, standing over her, smirk plastered onto his face.

"Wow, nice job Chase, but that was weak," she giggled.

"Of course, besides, we haven't gotten to the best part," he turned himself around, still standing over her.

"W-Wait, Zuma didn't tell you, d-did he?!"

"That you're ticklish right here," he said, gently rubbing her belly, causing a light giggle to escape Everest, "yep!"

"N-No, p-please don't," she begged.

"Sorry Everest, but I need payback," he smirked. He used his hind paws to hold her down, now quickly rubbing her belly in a circular motion.

"Bwahahahahahaha, p-please, hahahah, C-Chase," she bursted out laughing.

"Not until I see tears," he said aloud, continuing, laughing himself.

"N-No, hahahahahahahaha, p-please! Hahah, I-I, hahahaha, beg of you!"

He continued, ignoring her cries, only looking back occasionally to see if she stated to tear up. Not too long later would he see the pup start crying out loud, "C-Chase, p-please! Hahahaha!"

Chase smirked, stopping, and slowly jumping off the pup. Everest lied on the floor, trying to catch her breath, tail slowly coming to a halt. Chase laughed, gently nudging her side. "N-No, p-please, n-no more," Everest whimpered.

"Don't worry, you're safe. Just know I only made the note to help you cheer up, that payback was totally uncalled for," Chase sighed.

"Y-Yea... I'm sorry, I guess I was just mad about the buffet part, but in my defense, you shouldn't of done that. I mean, what if Jake never came back..."

"Yeah, I figured that after you read the letter, I could only of hoped," Chase sighed.

"Well, I'm sorry for throwing you in the icy water," Everest looked away.

"And I'm sorry for tickle torturing you," Chase sighed, walking over to Everest, gently nudging under her head. Everest flinched at the sudden contact, but soon accepted it. "Are we good?"

"Yeah, we're good," Everest smiled, soon nuzzling the pup back.

Chase smiled, then helping the pup up, the two walking out of the door they came in, and making their way back to the Lookout.

Everest leaned on Chase on the trip there, and Chase allowed it, finding comfort in her fur. A smile was lit on both their faces as they walked back. The other pups caught onto the smiles they've been giving each other. Marshall even concluded that they were dating, all though nothing was official. They could only assume things for now...
