Jonahs POV

About 4 hours later, sun just starting to rise at 6:07am, my dad opened the door and walked into the living room which,at this moment in time, was filled with tear stained cheeks and bloodshot eyes.

I was the first to notice him. I had been watching the door since he left.
"Dad!" I got up and hugged him immediately, checking the hallway for sawyer. Svea joined me.

"Whe-wheres sawyer?" Svea looked at my dad as if her whole world fell apart in those 2 seconds. Every glimpse of hope that lingered in her eyes left that very moment.

Looking at the faces of everyone else I see frowns fall and the same hopeless gaze on their eyes. Evie looks at me, hanging on to every ounce of hope she possibly can. I shake my head as the tears began to fall. I've never cried so hard. Tears were pouring out of my eyes quicker than they could form. My best friend was gone.

"Hey!" My dad semi-shouted over the loud sobs of us all. We all attempted to compose ourselves, apart from Svea who was too far gone. We look up at him, confused.

"Sawyer is okay." I feel the largest smile form on my face before the same thought falls on everyone.

"Well umm... where is he?"
"Still at the vet. They had to perform emergency surgery. After running a few more tests they discovered his stomach had not flipped but it was in fact a huge stomach ulcer. When he had the seizure it was because something aggrivated it, almost causing it to burst. They removed it and we can pick him up 3pm tomorrow. We have to be gentle though. He isn't going to die but he will be in a lot of pain and discomfort. Svea? No more dressing him up until he's fully recovered."

"I can deal with that" Svea grins, glad to hear that sawyer is doing okay.

"Dad?"
"Yes Esther."
"Please please pleaseee can we go to petco and buy a load of toys and treats so we can spoil him when he gets home?!"
"Well i mean.. normally I would say no BUT it was a pretty painful surgery so I don't see why we shouldn't spoil him?" Everyone's faces light up ad we all rush out the door. Svea still in a onesie, jonahs in literally just his underwear and I'm in one of his hoodies and some short shorts. Tim gives jonahs "the look" and he hangs his head running upstairs to grab some jeans, a t-shirt and a cardigan which somehow, really suits him. He runs back downstairs,climbing into the car and begins to dress himself in the back seat. We all look at him a nd he just shrugs.

"TO PETCO!!" we all laugh at jonahs excitement and head to petco where we spend the whole day buying everything that can possibly be used to entertain a dog. Sawyer deserves it.
