 Bathes in Maple Syrup | Dancing Lobster | Mrs. Charlie Weasley | Seneca's Beard | That's So Fetch
The moment he was spotted, Benji stopped his barking and set his behind on the floor. His head tilted to the side, his tongue hanging stupidly out of his mouth. He was playing the adorable card again. It was his go-to move if it meant he got pets or treats out of it.
Thump, thump, thump went his tail when the two boys started giving him all the attention a crup could ever dream of having. Needless to say, Benji was a happy crup. He liked these boys very much.
In return for their affection, Benji gave them each big slobbery crup kisses.
Now that Benji wasn't barking, everything had seemingly gone back to normal. That was enough for Ryan to consider taking that nap he had wanted earlier. In fact, an arm was on the counter now, his head resting against it, his eyes slowly closing...
And then he, surprised by the sudden yelling, jumped right out of his seat and grabbed the rubber chicken sitting beside the register that was meant to be the service call bell.
WHAT. WAS. THIS. ALL. ABOUT.
Chicken still held in his hand as if it were a wand, the man approached the loud boy and his friend. He arrived just in time to hear the loud one say something about his crup being thrown away and that they should keep him. "First of all," his voice interjected, "you shouldn't be bloody shouting in my shop. And second, that is MY dog, thank you very much."
