Author's Note: is it clear I'm obsessed with dogs and them? No? Cool. (This is the last dog one I have finished)

Joey and Lauren were walking down the street going to get lunch a few blocks from her apartment. As they turned the corner, Lauren stopped dead in her tracks and started squealing like a little girl. This was nothing new to Joey, she got like this whenever she saw a cute dog or any good gluten free food, or food in general. He looked straight ahead and saw why his pint sized girlfriend had gotten so excited. He looked down at her as she was looking up at him and then back at the puppies she had spotted and back. She looked at him as if asking for permission to go pet them, which he was a little too eager to let her go do. He loved seeing her that happy and would do anything to always see her like that. He didn't realize that he had been staring at her while she was petting and playing with the puppies when he heard her voice calling his name.

"Oh yeah, hi, sorry." He stumbled as he came out of his trance.

"What were you thinking about?" She quizzed now looking up and poking his chest.

"Just how hard I've fallen in love with you." he said rather blatantly. They both stopped moving once they realized what he said.

"You- you've never said that to me before. I mean you tell us how much you love us like all the time. But you've never told me you were in love with me."

"Well, yeah. Um... I have been for a while I guess..."

"Well I guess that's a good thing that I'm in love with you too." She smiled now looking him straight in the eyes. All of a sudden, he grabbed her waist, lifted her up and kissed her. Once they finally separated she just hugged him, grabbed his hand, and dragged him down the street. There was nothing that could separate her and her food, not even confessing her love to the man she's been in love with since college.
