Never Apart (Wild Kratts: Chris x (Y/N) x Martin) REWRITTEN EDITION

Friendship Has An End

WE ARE BACK!!

Anyways - how have you guys been! It's been a while since I've updated, hasn't it?

Also - writing a book takes SO LOOOOOOOONG! But, its worth it honeslty, cause I get to look back on my work.

BY THE WAY-- Happy Summer, everyone!

. . .

(Y/N)'s P.O.V.

Everything swirls around me all at once.

My feelings, the adventures we've been on, the recent confession. 

It's all so confusing.

But one thing stuck out to me: the kiss Chris gave me.

I can't stop thinking about it. I mean, I probably have a crush on him, and that's okay, but I'm scared to ruin our friendship. There are a lot of friends-to-lovers trope books, and they all end happily, but I'm not sure about this one.

You never know what can go wrong.

Not every friendship has an end. Some might turn out to be good, and some bad. Some might just stay the same. A bonded duo or trio can never be broken... unless something breaks them from within or they're broken from the outside.

I don't want to rush him.

I don't want to seem desperate or too clingy for almost... wanting this.

And what about Martin? What will he think? His brother with their best friend?

(D/N) seems to sense my discomfort and lays down, letting me lean against her shoulder while her wing wraps around me. We both stare at the stars, and I sneak a glance at her, seeing her (E/C) eyes dilate and almost glaze over in a brief sadness.

"Not a lot of your kind, huh girl?" Her ears droop as she rumbles, dropping her head to the ground. I rub her head as she tilts it toward me. "One day we'll find your kind, and who knows-- maybe a mate?"

(D/N) perks up, smacking me with the top of her wing. "Ow, ow! Okay, okay. Independent dragon here." She sticks her tongue out at me, giving me a side-eye. "Don't look at me like you know what love is!"

She rumbles out a laugh and I start laughing with her, smiling widely.

A loud roar echoes in the distance, almost familiar to me. Not a Nadder, or even a Night Fury, but something similar.

"You're still up?" Both of us look over to see Chris.

I blush at little, not expecting him to be awake. "I could ask the same to you, Kratt."

He just laughs, and for once, I can truly feel the resonate around me, as if I'm hearing it for the first time. "Okay, okay, you got me. But why are you up, it's almost midnight?"

"Couldn't sleep. Just decided to stay out here with (D/N)." (D/N) purrs in response, standing up as I fall back, watching as she nudges her head against Chris's leg as he chuckles.

"Aw, well, she seems happy." He smiles, scratching her head as her tongue lollies out of her mouth.

I nod, smiling at the two, and I yawn, completely forgetting all about the strange noise until it sounds again, seemingly more in distress.

"Sounds like a creature in trouble!" Chris suddenly yells, racing back inside as he reappears, his vest on with himself riding his Buzz Bike. "Need a lift?"

"You seriously went full 'I'm going to save a creature mode', didn't you?" I laugh.

Chris pauses for a moment, scratching the back of his neck nervously. "We-Well, it's instinct. We're the Wild Kratts after all."
