My Life Changed When I Met Him

Chapter 30-Phone Problems

I'm sitting on the bed with Baylor in my lap. I feel so bad for what happened and it's all my fault. He keeps whimpering and I can't do anything about it. I curse myself for leaving without guards "I should've told the guards, I shouldn't have went out that far, I should've let him take me" I kept putting myself down. I looked at my sleeping puppy "he got hurt protecting me" I slightly smiled I gently ran my fingertips where he kicked him and he immediately woke up,

"Baylor it's all my fault if it wasn't for me you wouldn't be in this mess"

He nudged my hand as if he's saying it's ok. Someone knocked on the door and then it opened, it's the guys and my dad they all sat on the bed,

"How's he doing?" Chris asked

"He's in pain he kicked him pretty hard"

My dad looked at Baylor "I told the driver as soon as we hit Miami to go to the nearest animal hospital"

"Thanks dad" I looked at them then at Baylor "I just can't help but feel like this is all my fault"

"It's no ones fault" Ryan said

"It's my fault!" I shrieked "if I would've stayed in the bus I would've never met him or if I would've just let him take me-"

"Then you wouldn't be here right now" my dad interrupted

I just looked at Baylor,

"We have now arrived in Miami" the driver said through the intercom, "now off to the animal hospital"

Baylor moved closer to me.

My dad and I are in the examine room. I keep looking at Baylor who is laying on the metal table in the middle of the room, hoping and praying that he's ok. I look around the room it's light blue with white tile on the ground. He just got done with x-rays we're just waiting for the doctor to bring them back. Most dogs would be freaking out right now but not him he's just laying there as if he knows we're here to help him. The room door opened and in walked the vet in a white lab coat and scrubs with little puppies on them,

"Alright" the doctor said while shutting the door behind her

"Is Baylor ok?" I asked hastily

she smiled "He's fine"

She put his x-rays on a light table

"Nothing is broken he just has some bruising"

I did a sigh of relief "thank god"

"Since he has slight bruising he can't run and jump he's going to have to take it easy" she said turning off the light and then coming over and petting Baylor "also he'll need a lot of rest so he can't go everywhere with you"

"What?" I asked shocked "do you not realize he's my dog people could take him just so they can get to me I can't leave him alone"

She sighed "fine...just take it easy with him"

"Will do"

She smiled "alright your dad just needs to pay the bill and then you can leave"

I nodded and she left. My dad looked at me,

"What?" I asked

"Nothing" he laughed while shaking his head

I hooked Baylor to his leash and carried him out of the room. We walked out the room and down the hall passing framed pictures of dogs and cats. Walking up to the front desk I saw people in the waiting area with animals ranging from gerbils to dogs, kids ran around asking the pets owner if they could pet them. I looked at Baylor and petted him,
