He's Back

Tris Pov

Mom had asked me about my hair. I lied and said to get into this "kiddy club" I had to get a pixie cut. She was about to ask me more questions but she was cut off by a knock on the door.

She went downstairs, while I got in the shower.

Scrubbing my body, then washing my hair. I relaxed letting the droplets of water hit my back. A knock on the bathroom door interrupts my relaxation. I dry up wrap a towel around my body, put a towel on the top of my head then I exit.

"Yes?" I ask. Striding over to my closet. Taking out a black shirt with a metallic heart smack dab in the middle. Blue faded capris and lace like shoes. "A friend is here." She smiles a big toothy grin.
Mom sits me down and she starts fiddling with my hair. Next five minutes I still on the floor until she says done. My hair is straightened but still chopped. I skip until I reach the door. I swing the door open. I see a boy sitting on the porch. Wait, not any boy, Tobias. When he faced me his face lit up with happiness. He sprung up and wrap warm arms around me. I wedge my head in the crook of his neck.

"Toby." I breathe. His scent was familiar and relaxing. We pull back. I smile and he does to. "Bea, I missed you so much." His face was filled with excitement, His mouth was curved into a smile and dimples began to show. His face turned to confusion and I notice that his eyes were focused on something. " What happened to your hair? Did you cut it?" He questions. Should I tell him? Yeah, I close the doors behind me and sit on the stairs of the porch. He comes and sots next to me, I weave my fingers with his. I explain what happened, when I'm talking I notice his body tensed then relaxing. This pattern went on. The grip of our hands got tight. "But I'm fine now." reassuring him. Mom opens the door a lil' asher comes trotting out. Asher tilts his head at the sight of Toby.

Toby's eyes lit up. He practically squealed at Asher. I let out a laugh Toby picks up Asher Gently. "Whats his name?" He observes the dog very carefully. "How did you know it was a he?" He gives me a "Duh" look. "I looked." Ooooh okay. "Kids you want some food?" Mom Asks. I mod my head but Toby Denies it. "No I actually have to go, My brother is gonna pick me up at 2:40 and its..." He pauses and looks at his phone "2:38, and I got a text from him." He reads the text. "He's right around the block." Just as he says that a blue car pulls up. "Cmon little bro!" He calls sticking his head out the rolled down window, "Wait!" By this time mom had tracked back into the house. Toby stops in his tracks. "Yes?" He calls "Tris give him some sugar!" My face burns up "Not now!" I call. Toby laughs and runs to the car, Hitting his brothers shoulder. I laugh and head in side having Asher follow behind.

Thanks for all the support for my Dog but unfortunately he passed the morning after. But I know that he is all better and in Doggy heaven. Thank you. So much. The Vets didn't give him a strong diagnosis. All they said was his blood wasn't doing what blood does and his liver was failing so its was multi problems they didn't know if it was cancer or what. So I was in the same room when they put him into deep sleep. But I know he lays awake in heaven.
