''C'mon big boy, let's catch some fish,'' Lance spoke out as he took his self-made fishing net from his corner, and walked out of the cave. He took a deep breath, smiling once he felt Red's presence behind him. ''I bet I can catch more fish than you though,'' Lance said as they walked down the rocky path of the mountain. Red rolled his eyes and started to walk in front of Lance. The latter glanced at Red's paw, it was almost fully healed. He was already glad it was a closed wound now, so no worries about infections anymore.

Once they reached the river, they sat down, Lance kicked off his shoes and pulled up his pants, stepping into the water, waiting for fish to swim by. He saw a big one coming in, the stream making it harder for him to see. Lance held out his net and waited for the right moment. And just as he was about to jump at the fish, Red sprung in and bit it with his teeth, throwing the fish to the side.

''Really? You wanna start this game again?'' Lance said with a mad look situated on his face. Red seal-laughed again, swinging his tail in the water, splashing Lance.

''Oh! The game is on!'' Lance screamed, kicking some water at the competitive dragon. The dragon pounced onto Lance instead, while Lance struggled to tackle the mammoth off of him, failing miserably.

A fish swum by and Lance grabbed its tail, lifting up the fish and smacking Red with it. Red shook his head looking at Lance with a shocked look. Lance took this as an opportunity to slip away and tackle Red's neck. Red noticed and spread his wings.

''No,'' Lance said, ''No! Don't you dare!''

But Red did, and took off into the sky. Lance tried to hold onto the scales at Red's neck but he lost his grip and fell. While he was falling he saw Red deride him. Lance glanced down and saw the ground getting closer.

''Oh n-no, OKAY YOU WIN RED, YOU W-in-'' Lance closed his eyes and was suddenly grabbed by claws. He breath out a breath he was holding in as he glanced up at Red who had his neck bent to look if Lance was alright.

''For sure, that was a new record,'' Lance laughed, rolling his eyes at the dragon. Red trilled again and threw Lance up in the air, as he perfectly landed onto Red's neck. They had done it countless of times now, so it had become a skill.

Lance had been thinking of making a saddle for Red, but he wasn't sure how. It didn't matter anyway.

Once they were back safe and well onto the ground, they went back to the river to catch some other fish. Once they were done, they carried them back to the cave. Their cave. Lance remembered how Red had reacted when he wanted to go search for food for the first time. He laughed to himself rethinking of the events that took place back then.

Red was furious, he was growling and snarling and Lance was scared of him. He had backed away into a corner at the far end in the cave while red was hissing at him. He clearly wasn't allowed out of the cave. Lance hadn't dared to move for hours period, and every time Red tried to come closer to him, Lance would scream at the top of his lungs.

Suddenly Red had come with some fish later that night and a jacket, apparently there had been hunters in the territory, but probably got eaten by other dragons. Red left right away and was curled up at the entry of the cave. Lance felt guilty for screaming at Red and slowly made his way over to him.

Red had turned away from him, his tail blocking the entry, probably to be sure Lance wouldn't flee. ''I'm sorry, you were only trying to protect me,'' Lance had spoken out, which took Red's attention. Lance was allowed to sleep between Red's paws again, where he felt safe and sound.

There was also this time when Red followed Lance everywhere, which got onto Lance's nerves. But as stubborn as Red is, he didn't leave Lance's side, no matter what Lance did or say or try.
