         "Boo!" Desire screamed as she jumped out from beside the house. Causing me to scream bloody murder.

After realizing what happened, I catch my breath and glare at my sister with a hand over my heart. I'm praying to my heart that I don't have a heart attack before I'm 20. When I look up I see desire and Tiffany basically rolling around laughing, like they just saw the funniest thing in the world.

"Wasn't even that funny." I comment, hoping to just leave it at that. They completely ignore me and continues on laughing.

"Ha-ha. Laugh it up, Twits." I mock them, feel embarrassed. Pushing past them, I make my way to the car trunk to help with groceries.

I carry maybe 10 bags on each arm. I'll die before I make two trips. Hauling the bags on the kitchen table, I take a good look at mom and dad. I haven't seen them in like a week and a half. Not that long, I know, but I still miss them. Dad has a stubble beard growing with his casual jeans and a t-shirt on. He did get him some new steel-toe boots though. A nice brown color, I might add.

Mom has her hair wavy and frizzy, like she brushed it straight out of the shower and left it be. Guess she's a little more stressed then normal, because those crease lines on her forehead are getting a little bigger. She's wearing a green tank top with blue jeans and brown boots. We continue putting the groceries away, while they strike up a conversation.

"Hey baby, I've missed you." Dad said while coming in for a hug. Missed you too, I mumbled as I hugged him. I hugged mom and then started to put the icing on my cupcakes.

"Your sister got a puppy." Mom blurts out, while dad smacks his forehead. They knew I would be upset.

"WHAT! But you guys knew that I had been asking for a dog for a while now. Desire doesn't even like animals!" I try to keep my voice calm. She doesn't even like animals, she just wants it because I do, that's how it's always been.

" I know, I know honey. But you were sleeping so they went to the store with us and Tiffany begged us to go to the pet store to look around and then desire saw the puppy and said Bellamy was a perfect name for it and got really exc-" mom rambled on until I stopped her.

"Wow, wow, wow. Hold the phone up. She named the puppy Bellamy? But I told you guys I was going to name my puppy Bellamy because that's my favorite person off the 100. Desire hates that show, she only likes the gossip girl." I exclaimed. I can't believe she would do this! She knew I wanted to get a puppy and name him Bellamy.

"Oh Hun, stop it. Your acting so petty." Mom informs. I don't care if I'm acting petty, she only did this to hurt me, and it doesn't matter if it's petty, it worked.

"Whatever." I mumble and run upstairs into my room. I slam my door shut and lean against it. I just stand there, for what seems like forever. I look over at the bed in shock.

Well it took me forever to notice the little fur ball on my bed with its head on its paws, looking right at me. He is so freaking adorable. A pit. She got a little pit bull. It was grey with light blue eyes and a patch of white fur under its neck. It was amazing. I walk up to my bed and sit on the floor by it so I'm face to face with the pup.

"So they named you Bellamy, huh?" I ask the dog, like its gonna answer me. I pet his head while he leans into my touch.

"Stick with me and I'll treat you like a prince." I coo at him. He has his tongue hanging out. I tell him I'll be right back as I run downstairs and get the dog bowls meant for Bellamy. I fill one up with water and one up with food and take it back up to my room and set it down on the floor. He's still laying in my bed, the same way he was when I left.

"Can I call you bell for a nickname?" I ask him and he licks me on the hand when I pet his ear.

"I'll take that as a yes." I mumble, more to myself then to him. It's funny. How desire wanted my dream dog, took the name I was going to give him and Hadn't even noticed he was gone. Did she plan on feeding him because the bowls were just sitting on the counter for like 20 minutes before I but food and water in them?

Well if she isn't going to take care of him and love him, then I will.
