And here's the last chapter everyone! Enjoy!
The dumbfounded Skipper was left there standing. It took him a full minute to comprehend what just happened. “Goodnight Marlene.” He bid her farewell and went back to the HQ.
=======At the HQ….
Skipper quietly entered the dim-lit headquarters. Seeing his colleagues fast asleep, he went to his own bunk. “So how did your night go off Skipper?” The lead penguin was surprised at the sudden question. The voice was familiar, but the query made thoughts flood in his head. The photo booth, watching fireworks, the short swim, especially that light kiss Marlene gave him on the cheek.
======== At Marlene’s Habitat…
Marlene waited for Skipper to exit her habitat. “Goodnight Marlene.” She heard Skipper say. She paused for a minute (again) before going outside. She saw Skipper closing the lid of the fishbowl entrance. Marlene went back to her bed with thoughts filled in her head. For a moment she was silent.
======== Inside the HQ…
“Skipper?” the voice spoke again. Skipper came back to reality and answered, “It went fine Kowalski, it surely did. How about you and the boys?” No answer came. Instead, a loud snore replied for the now asleep- Kowalski. “G’night boys.” Said Skipper as he turned off the last light in the HQ.
O+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++O
Both with one last sigh, the closed their eyelids and drifted off to sleep with one last thought in their head,
“Goodnight Skipper/Marlene. Happy Valentines Day.”
O+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++O
And... finished! I tried to make the story DROP A HINT that both like each other, but just couldn't help and add that little part where Marlene gave Skipper a small kiss in the cheek! X3
Well, I hope you liked it. Happy Valentines Day, and thanks again for reading! Paalam! ^^
