Bills POV
I see poppy shaking uncontrollably and paddle faster. Before I know it I hear an almighty squeal, I look up and see loca attacking her. I paddle faster than ever before and hit the shore running. I throw myself at loca and garb him by the neck. I shake him until my girl grabs my collar and Aria grabs loca's collar. They pull us apart. Poppy is in a ball, she's in hysteria. I'm surprised she hasn't passed out she's shaking so much. Loca's owner puts him on the lead and leaves without a word. I don't care I need to see poppy. My girl can tell so she let's me go. I lie down beside her and rest my head on her neck.
"It's okay he's gone now, your okay. I'm here now. Calm down. shhhhh, it's okay. It's okay now." I continue to talk to her until her sobs subside and she stops shaking as much. I move so I'm in front of her. "Are you a bit better now?" She nods slightly and our girls walk over. Aria is in tears and Min is shaking slightly. My girl clips me on the lead and tries to pull me away but there's no way I'm leaving poppy now.
"Come on Bill, you'll see poppy when she comes back from the vet!" My girl tugs on the lead slightly. I hate to have to do this but I have to go with poppy, I'm worried about her. I grab my lead and pull until I'm next to poppy again.
"Fine! We'll go with them!" I hate being disobedient but I have to do this.
Aria's POV
Another dog, another dog who I have let down. I should have been watching her. I feel awful. At least she isn't that badly hurt.
We're in Min's car on the way to the vet, Bill is curled up next to poppy in the boot. He was adamant that he would come. They're very cute together.
After what feels like hours we arrive at the vets. Bill nudges poppy awake and she looks around. I clip on her lead and Min gets Bill. We wait in the reception until a vet is free. Poppy is shaking again so Bill puts his paw on her shoulder and she calms down a bit. I look at all the posters on things like lungworm and obesity. We're finally called in.
Bills POV
We walk into a small room that smells like bleach. Poppy looks scared again, she's probably never been in a vets before. I don't move from her side until the vet puts her on the table. Her eyes widen with fear. Her pumpkin coloured eyes meet my blue and brown eyes and that's how we stay until the vet is done with the stitches and bandages on Poppy's ears.
We get back to the car and poppy lies down, I lie next to her with my head on her neck. She is calm now. I feel her breath slow and she goes to sleep. What an eventful day!
