"As Long as We Both Shall Live"

[Bolt's Point of View]

Maria and I are finally getting married today. My nerves were working overtime mainly because of the eyes that were looking at us, but knowing that I'll be with the 사랑 of my life actually calms me down. 코브라 and Mittens will be doing this alongside us as well. It seems fitting to have a double wedding because it was a week before today that 코브라 popped the question. Luckily, Maria's ribs aren't bothering her too much, but we don't want to push it too hard. Besides, we only have to do three things and we're done.

Maria looked at me and said, "Are 당신 ready for this?"

"No," I answered.

"Me neither."

"Woah, déjà vu."

"Huh?"

"I'll explain later, but it's actually a funny story. Do 당신 want to start 또는 me? Mittens and 코브라 are already done."

"Let's start together."

"Okay."

We first sniffed each other to accept each other's scent. 다음 came the nibble on the ears (I never really understood that part). The final step was to rub noses. Once that's done, we are officially mates.

[Maria's Point of View]

Later that night, I lay on the 침대 in the guest room. Bolt walked in with a rose in his mouth. He walked up to me and placed it in my fur. He then said, "I thought this would look good on you."

I smiled and replied, "Thanks. Where did 당신 find that?"

"It was in the same area we were wedded in. I also saw a crude drawing of us with an 'X' over it. Apparently, Bruce was there."

"Oh."

"However, I only look on the bright side. I think 당신 should have it."

"And how did 당신 get around the thorns?"

"That was the tricky part, but it was worth it."

"Well, are 당신 tired?"

"I am. Glad this leg was able to heal."

"I know. Unfortunately, both our ribs need to heal."

"Thanks to a certain dog, but that's in the past. This is our night, so let's make the most of it."

"Wow! 당신 really are positive."

"Hey, that's just me." I laid down 다음 to her. "I 사랑 you."

Maria licked me on the cheek. "I 사랑 당신 too."

"Sweet dreams."

In mere seconds, we both fell asleep.

[Mitten's Point of View]

코브라 and I laid 다음 to each other. I smiled at him and said, "We made one great team."

"No, we're better than that," 코브라 replied.

"So, how would 당신 say Maria's doing?"

"I don't think she could be any happier."

"If I know Bolt, he's probably snuggling up 다음 to her right now. I also think that he would make a great father… just like you."

"Are 당신 saying that 당신 want-"

"Not right now! But ask me again in a few days."

"Okay, I'll keep that in mind. Well, sweet dreams."

"Good night."
