Chapter 17 - Poor Boy

Alana's P.O.V
I woke up cuddled next to Phil, I'm so glad we are now official. It was boiling hot today which is surprising, we live in England for god sake we expect rain and snow and tornados and blizzards and shit, not sun and pretty blue skies with clouds but hey, I won't complain...
After a while me and Phil felt sweaty and hot so we went downstairs to get some breakfast. Josh and Amy had already left meaning we had to tidy up, we quickly had some breakfast, got changed and met downstairs ready to speed clean. I was in charge of the music so I settled on some arctic Monkeys, first I went around picking up cans and bottles, Phil went around picking up wrappers and boxes and stuff. Dan and Jasmine just straightened the place up a bit.

"Alana you never opened your presents" Dan stated

"Oh yeah I didn't" we all started laughing and them three ran upstairs, a few moments later they reappeared carrying presents, wrapped in Elsa and Anna from the film frozen, wrapping paper.

"Open mine first!" Jasmine shouted handing me a present

"Just letting you know I walked in on these two kissing when we were 'wrapping' the presents" Phil stated laughing as Dan and Jaz blushed

"Anyway, just open the presents," Jasmine said trying to change the conversation

"OMG I love it!" I screamed while they laughed at me, it was an oversized cream jumper "thanks Jaz" I said hugging her

"No problem" she said smiling

"ME NEXT!" Dan shouted before Phil could even open his mouth

"Thanks Dan, I can use this later, by the way we need to go food shopping" I said and everyone moaned

Dan got me a black vans bag

"Saving the best til last?" Phil asked winking at me

"Seriously Phil you need to get better at flirting" I laughed taking his presents

"Awwwww" I said smiling "I love them thanks babe" I finished while trying on my new bracelet and adding my charms "thanks guys I love you all"

   A while later we decided to walk to the shop because I said we needed food which wasn't a lie we do. We were walking down a street when I noticed a blue bag at the side of the road, it was moving as if there was a bird or something stuck in it so I walked up to it, opened the bag and there was a little chocolate Labrador puppy but it had string wrapped around one of its legs and it was clearly in pain.

"Hello little baby, your sooooo cute" I said bending down as it yelped in pain.

   Dan kept telling me not to get attached or we'd end up keeping it, I already had plans. We picked it up and took it to the vets which was surprisingly just at the end of our road.

   We walked in and asked for an appointment but they said it was no need for an appointment because the vet was free so we took the little puppy into the room and placed him on the bed. The vet removed the string and have him an injection.

"You have two options" the vet started "number one doesn't really seem like an option because he isn't in critical conditions"

I hugged Phil not wanting the puppy to be put down.

"Or you can have his leg amputated which may cost a lot of money, now he doesn't have a microchip or a collar or anything so he clearly wasn't wanted" the vet said looking up at us and taking off his glasses

"Can we keep him then?" I asked him looking up

"Yes, you kinda also have to go through with the operation or he will have to be put down" the doctor said frowning

"How much is the operation?" Dan said

"£85" the doctor said "it might usually be meow expensive be because it wasn't you that did it and you aren't the owners yet it's cheaper" he finished

I looked at the rest of the guys hoping they would let me keep him and go through with the operation.

"I'll pay it" Dan said handing the man the money

"Yay, thanks Dan" I said smiling and clapping quietly

The operation was allowed to be done today which was good, poor boy, while the operation was being done Phil stayed with the puppy, Dan and Jasmine went food shopping and I headed for the pet shop to buy our new puppy some stuff.

I walked through the cold streets of London, trying to find the local pet shop, I turned the corner and looked straight in front of me and found it. I walked into the shop and realising it was way bigger than I expected.

   I got a trolley and walked straight to the beds, I picked up a small, circular, grey one with raised edges and a really fluffy linings on the inside. I immediately fell in love and put it in my trolley, then I bought him a couple of toys, a pink flamingo that made a funny noise and a little teddy bear. Then I bought some food and some little biscuit bones for treats, oh and I bought a packet of chew sticks too.

   Then I walked over to where the coats were, I bought a red fluffy coat with a built in harness, perfect. I then found a red collar and a white clip on lead with a black handle. I almost forgot the poop bags so I went on a hunt to find them, payed for everything then got a taxi to take me and all my stuff home.

   Once I got in I put the food in a cupboard, put the bed down on the floor, put the toys in the bed, hung up the lead and the collar then left with the poo bags and the cost for the dog. When I was walking to the vets to meet Phil I was thinking about names for my little boy. I was thinking either Stitch, Olaf or Simba. All Disney related I know but I'm Disney mad so yeah...

   I eventually got to the vets, I walked in and saw Phil sat in the waiting room

"Hey" I said causing him to look up

"Hey you, come here I want a hug" he said, usual clingy Phil.

I told him about what I bought and then the door opened and the vet told us the operation was complete. We walked into the room and the puppy was laid on the mat, when he saw me his tail started wagging which was adorable! We texted Dan and Jasmine telling them to meet us back home because we were leaving the vets, I put the puppy's coat on because it was cold and picked him up obviously because he can't walk very well yet. We thanked the vet and then left to go back home.

2 hours later

   We have been home for quite a while now and we have just been playing with the puppy, he's now crashed in his bed and he's even cuter when he's sleeping, I'm talking about the puppy btw. Dan and Jasmine have been back for about an hour and we have put all the food away.

"So guys I've been thinking about names for our little prince" I started and everyone looked at me "I'm going to suggest 3 names and I want you to agree together which you like ok?" I said

"Ok" they all said in unison

"So it's either Olaf, Stitch or Simba" I said looking at them as they turned away and started whispering

"We have decided" they started "Stitch" they finished and we all smiled and had a group hug, I'm gonna get seriously attached to this puppy, Stitch....
