The Beginning of Mr. Puggles

Chapter 9 - Advice for Vanessa

"Nathan!!" Vanessa moaned. For the past hour, Vanessa has been asking Nathan what they were going to do at 9, and Nathan wasnt answering. Obviously he probably won't, but still. Vanessa's moaning was annoying me. I was about to bark, but that would make matters worse.
"Uggh fine. I'll tell you in thirty minutes. Just not now since I have to go shopping." Nathan replied as he once again got his shoes on.
"Shopping? Have you even met yourself? What are you shopping for?" Vanessa asked.
"Yes, I met myself. Thank you very much. And no reason. Just for..stuff." Nathan got his keys.
"Nathan please!! Tell me!" Vanessa begged. Nathan sighed.
"Oh dear lord.. Anyways. Tell me your favorite lotion and scent." Nathan said.
"Tell me why and I give you the answer." Vanessa replied.
"Fine."
"Well?"
"You go first."
"Vanilla. For both. Now you answer." Vanessa responded. At least they weren't fighting.
"Oh and favorite romantic color." Nathan said.
"Ughhh red. Answer now." Vanessa demanded.
"It's for tonight." Nathan said.
"And Whats tonight?" Vanessa asked.
Nathan winked. "One question, one answer." He responded and kissed her, then headed out to go shopping. Vanessa waited until Nathan's car left the drive away, then she sat on the couch and sighed.
"Oh, Mr. Puggles.. Im so bored. What do you think Nathan's gonna do?" I watched her. Um.. She's aware of the fact that I can't talk, correct?
"Well whatever. I need to do something that will get my mind off of it.." Vanessa sighed once again and started thinking. I sat down and yawned, indicating that I wanted to do nothing at the moment.
"Ooh lets go shopping! I wanna get things." Vanessa said. I continued yawning. Nothing I wanna do..
"Ooh Im gonna call Rosa!" Vanessa said as she grabbed her phone.
"Hello?" She asked. She put the phone on "speaker".
"Hi!" I heard Rosa's voice.
"Can you come over? Without Lizzy? I need.. Advice. In person." Vanessa said.
"Oh okay, sure!" Rosa said.
"Thanks, and bring money.. We may go shopping.." Vanessa replied.
"Yay! Okay, coming now!" Rosa said.
"Bye!" Vanessa said.
"Bye bye!" Rosa said and hung up.

<><><><><><><><><><><>

Finally, Rosa got here.
"Hi!" Vanessa said as she opened the door and let Rosa in.
"Hello! So Whats up?" Rosa asked. Vanessa sighed. "Honestly, I have no idea. I need advice.."
"Ooh ok! About what?"
"Nathan.."
"Oh ok! So Whats happening?"
"Well I don't know. He went out shopping saying he's getting things for later--"
"Later? What's later?" Rosa interrupted and sat down. Vanessa sat down next to her.
"I don't know. He won't tell me and says its a 'secret'. He asked what my favorite lotion and scent was and then he asked what my favorite romantic color is.."
"Oh come on! It's obvious! Do you really not know?" Rosa blurted out.
"Umm.. No. Not really." Vanessa said.
"He wants to have sex with you!" Rosa said excitedly. She then frowned. "Just by guessing, you probably never had sex?"
Vanessa slowly shook her head. "Nope."
"Oh ok. Did he say what time?" Rosa asked.
"He said 9."
"Ohh ok! Then shower at like, 8. And then blow dry your hair. Oh oh oh! And do you have thongs?" Rosa said.
"Yea.."
"Okay then let me see!!! I'll tell you which one to wear..!" Rosa said. This conversation was going well for Vanessa, bad for me. I wanted to sleep. I followed Vanessa and Rosa into Vanessa's room.
"Ooh okay... Hmmm... This one!" Rosa said and held up a lacy red colored one. Rosa went through more of Vanessa's drawers.
"Oh! And wear this spaghetti strapped tank top!" Rosa said as she held up a white tank top. She went through more drawers.
"And these black shorts..!" Rosa said.
"Okay..." Vanessa said.
"And this bra!" Rosa held up a strapless red bra that had lace on it.
"Okay.." Vanessa said.
"Hmm.." Rosa started thinking.
"Yes?"
"Oh! I know what! He's probably gonna lure you into sex by giving you a massage!" Rosa said.
"What? Why?"
"Because he doesn't want you to know that he wants to have sex probably! He wants to make it a surprise!" Rosa said.
"Ah." Vanessa finally said. She was obviously at a loss of words. She looked at the time.
"Oh.. He might be home soon..
Im gonna put these in the drawer..." Vanessa said.
"Oh! I should probably go then! Please tell me how it went, pretty please!" Rosa begged. Vanessa laughed.
"Of course , your the one who persuaded me that he doesn't want to break up."
"Oh come one now, its obvious he likes you still! Okay, bye!" Rosa left.
Vanessa quickly put her things away, then ran out to the living room. I ran out too, only cause I was now really interested.
Vanessa stopped watching Nathan from the window and sat on the couch, watching television. The pug show was on! Yay! I sat down next to Vanessa.

<><><><><><><><><><><><>

Nathan walked in carrying a bag, which it looked quite heavy. I watched him.
"Hello!" Vanessa said and paused the show. Really Vanessa?
"Hi!" Nathan said.
"It's been 30 minutes! Can you tell me now?" Vanessa asked. Nathan chuckled.
"Nope, it's only been 15." He said.
"Aww.." Vanessa sighed and pouted.
Nathan chuckled once more and walked out of the room, carrying the bag with him. He walked back out and picked Vanessa up, sitting himself down in her spot and sitting her on his lap. Her thighs were on each side of his legs. I continued watching the Pug Show. The puppies were now 3 months old...

<><><><><><><><><><><><>

The Pug Show has ended by now. I have no idea how many minutes later it was, but it was more than 15.
"Please Nathan... It's been more than 30 minutes by now..!" Vanessa complained.
"Ughh fine.." Nathan said.
"Yay...!" Vanessa replied.
"..do you like massages?" Nathan asked.
"Yes, I guess so..." Vanessa said. Oh dear, its going the same exact way as Rosa told Vanessa.
"Good. Cause Im giving you one." Nathan said.
"Yay! Finally you tell me!" Vanessa said.
"Well I wasn't going to.."
"Yup, but you did cause you promised~!" Vanessa sang as she turned around and pinched Nathan's cheek.
"I don't break my promises.." I heard Nathan mumble.

<><><><><><><><><><><><>

I looked at the clock. 5:30. Oh my gosh, Im so bored!! Nathan told Vanessa and I we couldn't go in his and Vanessa's room yet, so I was doing nothing. I heard Vanessa sigh.
"You want to order food?" She asked. Obviously she wasn't in the mood for cooking. But Vanessa's food was pretty good. I mean, I may or may not have eaten her pasta once. But then again, it was delicious!
"Okay, what do you want, Chinese or..?" Nathan asked. I have learned that Nathan and Vanessa both love Chinese food.
"Hmm.. How about sushi?" Vanessa asked.
"Okay, whatever you want. A pack of 6 for every sushi?" Nathan asked as he grabbed his phone.
"Yep!" Vanessa said.

30 minutes later, the food was here. Nathan payed, and Vanessa split up the sushis. Nathan entered the kitchen and smirked.
"Did you realize that they gave us no chop sticks?" He asked.
"Oh darn! How did I not?" Vanessa said.
Nathan smiled. "At least they gave us soy sauce."
"Yep!"
I whimpered. So yes, Vanessa and Nathan had fed me doggie food. Except I was hungry for sushi and only sushi. Please?
"No, Mr. Puggles. You already had your food." Vanessa pet my head.
"Hey what's this..?" Nathan said and pointed his finger at a sushi.
"Oh.. I don't know. I think it's new.." Vanessa said.
Nathan shrugged. "Explains why we had more to eat and to pay."
"Oh."
They ate in more silence. I watched and hoped for scrapes to fall on the floor. Please. Come on. I'm starving and waiting for scrapes, but no one even budges. Wow.
"Is it squid tentacle or octopus tentacle?" Vanessa asked as she looked at the new sushi.
"..I think it's octopus." Nathan said.
Vanessa picked up the sushi and took a bite. "Huh." She said.
"Is it good?" Nathan asked.
"Mm..it's ok I suppose. Not the best." Vanessa replied.
"I want to try it, but if that tentacle attacks me, then we are going to have a problem." Nathan said.
Vanessa laughed. "It's dead. I don't think it will attack you."
"Okay, good." Nathan took a bite.
"Soo?"
"Meh. It's okay." Nathan said. Yea, so give it to me. Jesus. They ate the sushi in some more silence, and then they finished.
"Well, that was good." Vanessa said as she threw the paper plates in the garbage.
"Yep." Nathan agreed.
I frowned. No sushi for me. Oh well. Next time, I will just steal!
