Here's more, but hope that people like.
Thanks to people like Oncie's Sweetheart for reviewing, but in this chapter, Oncie and Sora are bonding, but Sora reveals that she's different, but he still likes her.
Yhat night, the Once-ler and Lorax were in his room playing poker for fun and eating marshmallows, but they heard crying from the living room, as they entered the room, but saw Sora on the couch, tossing and turning in sleep mentioning the trees and chopping, which made Once-ler pale.
"Ssh, it's okay Sora.
The trees are still here, okay?" he assured her.
The Lorax watched as the female Lorax's jade eyes fluttered open but there were tears in her eyes, but the Once-ler was stroking her orange fur.
"Did you have a bad dream, Sora?" he told her.
She nodded, telling him about her nightmare but even the Lorax looked scared, but knew it was just an nightmare, as she was snuggling against the Once-ler's blue pyjamas.
The Lorax realised that she couldn't see him or the Once-ler in the dark, which was odd but would ask her in the morning.
"Maybe you should sleep with Beanpole tonight, kid." he said.
The Once-ler shot him a stern look which made the Lorax sigh as he was leaving, but would be back in the morning.
Sora was in the Once-ler's arms, as he was going to his room, but was snuggling near him on the bed, but he noticed she was quiet.
"Hey, it's okay, Sora." he said.
"I know, but the nightmare could come back." she told him.
The Once-ler understood, as he sometimes had nightmares, about the forest being destroyed again, by some careless jerk, like O Hare.
He then found his guitar which he hadn't played in a while, but was calming Sora down, but she had something on her mind as he realised he couldn't see her.
"I can't see, in the dark.
I lost my night vision a long time ago, Oncie, and I also can't see sides." she told him.
The black haired man felt bad for her, as she was sleeping but not snoring loudly, unlike the Lorax but he was relieved as he fell asleep beside her.
.Something inide the Lorax stirred, as he watched them sleep from the window.
He felt his heart beat faster, seeing Sora but wondered why.
He decided, to let them sleep and ask the Once-ler in the morning.
The next morning, the Once-ler's eyes fluttered open, as he saw Sora still asleep beside him but wary, in case she punched those who startled her in sleep like the Lorax.
He was making pancakes, but saw the Lorax enter as he saw he was quiet for once which was odd, but good.
"Oncie, is it normal to feel weird, like somebody smogged up your heart?" he asked.
The black haired man gave him an odd look, like he'd grown extra limbs, but understood seeing him look at Sora like that, but smiled.
"You do, when you're in Love.
I don't blame you, as Sora's cute." he said.
The Lorax was stunned, but understood the man's words, but was unsure, as Love was an odd thing.
He then left for a while, but the Once-ler saw Sora waking as she walked in rubbing sleep from her eyes.
"Morning, Oncie." she said in her soft willowy voice.
He smiled, at her words, as she was cute but saw her drinking juice, but eating pancakes, as she was feeling better after last night, but was going into the forest and he was going with her, as she wanted to teach him about Nature.
After eating, they then left the Once-ler's cottage.
The Once-ler was anxious, as Sora was feeding Swomee-swans, but wanting him to try, as he was anxious but she placed an orange furred hand in his gently, as she was showing him how to feed them, as he was doing the same, as many Swomee-swans were eating out of his hands, as the Lorax was in awe.
"Well, I'd never see the day when Oncie would be feeding Swomee-swans.
Sora, you're amazing.
I want to be friends with you, if you'll let me." he said softly.
He then saw a Swomee-swan approach the bush he was hiding under, as Sora followed it but her eyes widened at seeing him.
"Hey, don't be afraid.
So, you're Sora huh?
You're very beauitful, for a Lorax, I mean." he said.
She nodded in reply, as she was feeling shy around him but Once-ler smiled seeing her with the Lorax, but winked at them.
He decided to leave them alone.
