The Beautifully Reckless

Chapter Fourteen

Mila-Rose's POV

I wake up the next morning and contemplate what I want to do today. Deciding to go on a hike I get up and change. My pajamas turn into a cropped gray tank, jean shorts, a white flannel, and my gray and white nikes. I throw my hair into a high pony and brush on some mascara. I grab a small backpack and pack a couple water bottles, my wallet, a portable charger, headphones, my phone, and sunglasses. Before going to the trail I stop at a Walgreens and buy some snacks. As I walk out I spot an animal shelter. Deciding to stop in and look, I put the Walgreens bag in my car and head over. Opening the door I'm greeted with multiple sounds and smells. "Hello! Are you looking for anything specific today?" The lady at the front desk greets. "A dog." I say. She nods and stand up. "Follow me please." She says, waving her hand. I walk behind the desk and follow her down a long hallway. "Any kind of dog in particular?" She asks, glancing over her shoulder. "Not really." I respond. She opens a door and I'm met with cages full of different types of dogs. "You can look around. I'll be over here cleaning up some things." She says. I nod and take off. I walk down the rows and rows of cages until I come across one that looks empty until I look a little harder. Inside the cage is two small dogs, a gray French bulldog puppy and a pug puppy. The puppies are each about the size of my hand.

I stick my finger in the cage and the French bulldog perks up. The small gray dog steps around the pug and makes her way up to me. She sniffs my finger before licking it. I laugh, waking the small pug up. The pug looks around for its friend and spots her over by me. The pug slowly gets up and waddles towards me. "I see you found the two trouble makers." The lady from the front desk says. I turn to her and smile. "They're so cute." I state, wiggling my finger. "They're a package deal. They hate being separated but no one wants both." She says. "I'll take them, both of them." I say. She grins and opens up the cage. I reach in and grab a puppy in each hand. I follow the lady back out to the front desk to do paperwork. After a few minutes I have adopted these two cuties. I named the French bulldog, Pancake and the pug is named Waffle. "Come on you two, lets go get some goodies for your new home." I say grabbing the two dogs. I set them on the front seat and drive to the nearest Pet Smart. Grabbing my purse and the two dogs, I walk towards the store. I grab a cart and set the two inside so they stay out of trouble. I find a few beds to set throughout the house for them. I grab multiple packs of puppy pads, a couple bags of food, bowls, collars, leashes and about thirty new toys. I get their tags with their names on it made and head to the check out. The eyes on the boy behind the register widen as he sees all the stuff I have. He scans everything and I pay before leaving.

I put most of it in the trunk and take a bed and a couple toys up to the front seat. I lay the bed down and set the puppies and the toys in it. I take a seat behind the wheel and grab Pancake. I clip her collar on her and kiss her head before grabbing Waffle. I do the same to her and make sure they are both securely in the bed before heading to hiking trail. Once we get there I clip their leashes onto their collars and set them on the ground. They instantly begin sniffing everything. I giggle and begin walking up the trail. Pancake and Waffle waddle in front of me, happily taking in the world. I get stopped by multiple people, all due to having the two waddling fur babies with me. We finally make it to the top of the trail, where multiple picnic tables are set up. I grab an empty one and set the two small puppies on table. Pancake starts sniffing around the table and Waffle just sits down. I pull out my water bottle and a small bowl I bought earlier. I dump some water into the bowl for the two puppies. Waffle drinks some water while Pancake barks at a leaf blowing in the wind. I laugh at Pancake and pull out some trail mix from my backpack. I also grab my phone. Opening the trail mix, I check my phone. I have multiple texts from a group chat between me, Logan, and the WDW boys. I laugh as I read through the messages.
