When Spark woke again, it was because Flame was nuzzling him. "What?" he asked her sleepily.
"Come on!" she nudged him, harder this time. Spark finally rolled over and looked at her. He decided to get her back for ruining a great nap.
Spark leaped onto his sister, woofing happily. suddenly, Mother-Dog stirred. Flame backed away from her as Mother-Dog barked "Go back to sleep. it is late."
For the first time, Spark noticed that it WAS darker in the den. so, he and Flame curled up AGAIN and closed their eyes and waited for sleep to come.
When it did, it was quiet and blissful.
