"So, you finally see your mistake?" Swelton crossed his sweaty arms at Swelterrier, who nodded, head facing down. 

Blazion and Sproink watched the fire dog, trying to see if he was lying or not. They were still wary of the guy since he had been so excited over Blizzaria's amnesia. For all they know, he could be planning on making that permanent! 

"I want to see her, if that's okay..." Swelterrier begged. 

"How do we know that you're not trying to make it permanent?" Sproink looked at him, rage visibly dancing in his eyes. 

"Blaze blaze," Blazion nodded in agreement. 

"I understand how you feel about this, but I truly want to see her," Swelterrier looked down. "I know I may not deserve it, but please! Let me!" 

The 3 of them looked at one another. One part of them was ready to give him permission. 

However, the other side had this grudge against him for being so mean to Blizzaria and scaring her as well. They were angry at him for sure due to how much of a jerk he had been to the amnesiac. 

Just then, the door opened to reveal Nate, whose eyes looked sunken and tired as he stumbled into the room, "H-Hey guys..." 

"Nate?!" Swelton immediately went into action, rushing to catch the kid before he fainted on the ground. Understanding his point, Sproink went to help the sweat Youkai with carrying the boy to a nearby couch. 

As they passed by Swelterrier, though, one of Nate's eyes opened and winked at Swelterrier before closing again. 

Swelterrier's eyes widened seeing this. N-Nathan... He was touched that Nate would be so kind to him despite how much trouble Swelterrier could be. I guess he DOES have a soft side after all... 

With that in mind, Swelterrier was ready to make sure Nate's sacrifice would not go to waste. 

The moment the group was out of sight, Swelterrier sprinted for Blizzaria's room, determined to make amends. 

Blizzaria looked up from her book when she heard the door open, expecting it to be one of her friends.

Not the guy who jump-scared her in the park. 

Immediately, she began shaking as tears pricked her eyes, "P-Please... Show me mercy..." 

"Blizzie..." Swelterrier walked towards her. "I'm so sorry about what happened... I was just thinking for the others' sake... I wanted to keep everyone safe..." 

H-Huh?... Blizzaria stopped shaking after hearing that, fear turning into confusion. What is he talking about?...

"But now I know... That you were never a danger... You were a friend... That's why everyone's so overprotective over you.... And now... So I am..." Swelterrier mumbled, stopping right in front of Blizzaria. "That's why... Come back, Blizzie..." 

And then Swelterrier kissed her. 

In most stories, a true love kiss could break any spell. 

That was the case with this one. 

After Swelterrier kissed her, Blizzaria's memories slowly began flowing in. 

The memories of her and her friends. 

The longer the kiss went, the more her fear for fire Youkai melted away along with the spell. 

And the two were content with themselves. 

The kiss did all the confessing. 

"So..... A kiss was the cure?"

"Yep," Nate nodded. "According to my research, only a kiss from her current crush could break the spell."

"And how on Earth did you know that it was Swelterrier?"

"Was it not obvious?"

The three blinked, "It was?"

"Very," Nate sweatdropped. "Geez, you guys are very oblivious."

"ARE NOT!" they pouted in retaliation.

Nate could only sweatdrop harder in response at their denial, "Are too."
