Chapter 4

A loud, metallic noise rang out throughout the house the next morning, roughly at 9 am. Wolfy was sound asleep before the racket awoke her from her slumber. She sprung out of bed, realizing the bed she was in wasn’t hers. As she woke up, the events of the night before began flowing back into her mind, and with it, a soft, peaceful smile crept up on her muzzle. As quiet and cautious as she was for the time being, a sense of warmth, compassion, and happiness overcame her body. She knew there was something different about the stallion who had welcomed into his home, but she was unsure of what it was.

 

That moment, Overdrive trotted in from his workshop, covered in filth from his morning’s work. “Good morning, Wolfy. Did you sleep well?” He thought for a minute, looked down at himself, and spoke, “I’m sorry if I woke you up, I have a lot of work to get done.”

 

She quietly nodded, and then replied, “No, you didn’t wake me. I was getting out of bed when you came up. I really appreciate you letting me stay here last night.”

 

After dusting himself off, Overdrive came and sat down next to her on the bed. “You are more than welcome. Can I get you anything before I get back to work?”

 

She thought about it for a second, and then shyly replied, “No thank you. I think I can manage it. You should get back to work anyway, Overdrive.” Wolfy then stretched, trotted into the bathroom, and began running bath water.

 

“Well, if you need anything,” Overdrive mentioned, “Just tell me, and I’ll get it for you, ok?”

Wolfy replied, “OK,” and sank into her bath water as Overdrive returned to his workshop to continue working.

 

As Wolfy bathed, she began thinking about her life, and where it had led her. She thought about where she had come from. She then began thinking about Overdrive, and how the stallion was more than gracious enough to allow her to stay in his home. Wolfy didn’t want to believe it was real. She thought there was a catch to it, thinking it was too good to be true.

 

She started washing out her mane, and as the water flowed down, over her head, it began washing away her pain. The thought of finding a stallion like Overdrive sounded too good to be true, but as time went on, even in the bath tub, the notion that it was all just a hoax washed away with the pain and the true inner beauty of Wolf Tracks began to show. She was becoming her old self again, and was beginning to forget about the past, and move towards the future.

 

Meanwhile, Overdrive was busily working away, building an inventory of furnaces, stoves and heaters for emergencies that could arise in the winter. His units were simple in structure and design, and as a result, were easy to work with, easy to install, and easy to use. He did this in his downtime, because he never had anything better to do, and often, depending on the weather, it was better to just replace a heating unit rather than repair one.

 

As he finished up one unit, and moved on to another, he started thinking about the night before as well. He didn’t understand why a mare would be lying alone, buried in the snow. What he did understand, is that she was brought into his life for one reason for another, and he wanted to figure out what that reason is.

“There’s no way…,” he whispered, recalling the line he quipped the other day. “No, that can’t be right… …not this close to Hearth’s Warming Eve…” For now, he shrugged the idea off, and continued about his day, but it still lingered throughout the day.

 

As the hours drew on, and Overdrive finished up his day, he entered his home, to see a sight that touched his heart. Wolfy found his adorable pup, Sparky, and the two were playing together in the living room as he came into the living room. Overdrive quietly slipped passed the two, with neither Wolfy nor Sparky noticing. He thought, ‘Look at how adorable they are. Aww…,’ but as he took one step up the stairs, the floor creaked, and the two immediately turned their heads to see what was going on.

 

Wolfy sprang up first, running over to Overdrive, tackling him, and hugging the stuffing out of him like a stuffed animal. “You’re back, I’ve missed you,” she exclaimed.

 

Confused at first, he eventually came around, and hugged Wolfy back. “I’ve been here all day, Wolfy. I’ve just been working. This time of year, I’m really busy.” He thought for a second, then said, “I’ve noticed you’ve opened up quite a bit.”

 

“Well,” Wolfy replied, “It’s kinda comfortable here. I like it here. I like… you.”

 

Overdrive took a step back, thinking about what she just said. “Uh, what was that,” he asked back, thinking his mind was playing games with him.

 

“I – like – you,” she said, bopping his nose. “You’re cute.”

 

Overdrive heard Wolfy say that, and then immediately hit the floor, fainting from the phrase Wolfy just uttered. He came back to a few seconds later, and questioned, “But, I don’t understand. What do you mean by that?”

 

Wolfy replied, “I like you, OK? I like, really like you. There’s something about you that’s different than other stallions I’ve seen.”

 

Intrigued by this, Overdrive responded, “I’m not really sure what’s different about me, other than my appearance.”

 

She answered, “Because you are you. You were nice enough to let me into your home, and even then, you did more than you had to. No one has ever done anything like that for me before.” Overdrive sat there, speechless. Wolfy continued, “Maybe this will answer your question…” She grabbed Overdrive, firmly hugged him, and whispered in his ear, “I love you,” before giving him a quick peck on the cheek.

 

Overdrive sat there, taking it all in, speechless. His only response, was hugging Wolfy tighter, whispering, “I love you too,” in her ear, and giving her a quick peck on the cheek as well.
