PETES POV.
It was a little while after my little "episode". Joe and I were sitting on the couch watching television. We were having an awkward silence.
"Wanna talk about it?" Joe asked cautiously.
"No," I replied sternly not taking my gaze away from the TV.
"Ookkkaaayyy," he replied leaning back into the couch.
Just then a commercial for an animal shelter came on TV. I felt my heart break when I saw those animal's faces. I just sat there is awe until it was over. Then The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came back on.
JOES POV.
I saw Pete's face when that commercial came on. He wanted to go there and adopt them all. That's when it clicked.
"Pete, c'mon I want to take you out!" I told him.
"Do I have to?" he asked slurring all the worlds together, turning his head slightly to look at me.
"YES! Now go get your shoes!!" I told him.
He sighed and got up.
PETES POV.
"Where are we going Joe?" I asked him, as he sped up at the yellow light, so he wouldn't have to stop.
"You'll see, we are almost there," he told me.
I sighed and slumped back into the seat. A few minutes later we pulled into a very familiar looking animal shelter. I smiled.
"You son of a bitch," I laughed.
"Hey!! There are female dogs around!! You might offend one!" Joe said sarcastically.
I punched him in the shoulder. We walked in the front doors of the shelter to the sound of barking dogs.
"Hi, we are here to adopt a puppy!" Joe said cheerfully.
"Great! Follow me!" The woman behind the front desk said, just as cheerfully right back.
Joe and I followed her into a room full of big cages. As soon as we walked in, all the dogs shut up and sat down.
"Wow, do they always do that?" I whispered to the lady.
"No... That's weird..." she replied taking a step away from me.
"Take your pick!" Joe said.
I started at the first cage. Cute, cute, cute, cute, weird, EW, cute, my new puppy. There sat an adorable 3-month-old bulldog. He looked up at me with those big brown eyes.
"I like this one," I said, as Joe and the woman walked over.
"This is Peanut, are you sure you want to adopt him?" the lady asked.
"Yeah I'm sure!" I exclaimed.
After signing some paperwork the lady gave went to the room and came out with "Peanut" on a leash. Peanut is a ridiculous name for a dog.
"Here you go sir," The lady said handing me the leash.
"Thank you," I replied with a big smile on my face.
"I'm going to miss you Peanut!" the lady said in a baby voice bending down and giving him a kiss on the head.
"Again thank you," Joe said ushering me out of the shelter.
"That lady creeped me out," he told me.
I shook my head and bent down to see my new puppy.
"We heed to give you a new name," I said to him.
He just licked my face in response.
"How bout... Hemmingway?" I suggested.
The puppy barked.
"Hemmingway it is," I smiled.
