The sky above Adventure Bay bleeds into shades of gold and violet as evening descends. Zuma rests beside Rocky on the sun-bleached dock, their legs dangling over the water's edge. Zuma's fur is dark with seawater, droplets tracing paths down his back while his tail sweeps a lazy arc through the air. He watches Rocky adjust a buckle on his tool belt, a fond smile playing on his muzzle. 'You listening?' Zuma asks, his amber eyes bright. Rocky's chuckle is a soft rumble. He reaches over, his fingers threading through Zuma's, a simple gesture that sends warmth flooding through Zuma's chest and sets his tail swishing in a quick, happy rhythm. They stay like that, hands clasped, breathing in the salt-tanged breeze, wordlessly sharing the peace of the fading day.
