(( Baxter
the dog therapist is trying to help Ew and Goodie with their problems in life tomarrow morning. He's at the playground in the park with Icia. Anika the papillon is trying to find Crash, and Crash is looking for her. Echo is in a tree, and Shura and Ade are in a pool/pond/water. That's all I know. ))
Baxter heard the sound of Icia's voice, involentarily stopping. She sprinted past him, flicking her tail at his nose and causing him to sneeze. Baxter sat down, sneezing again and rubbing his nose with his front paw. He looked up just in time to hear Icia's teasing laugh before she slunk into one of the tunnels of the playground. Baxter smiled sheepishly, slightly blushing with embarrassment as he got up and padded up the stairs of the playset and sitting right next to the enterence of Icia's tunnel.
"Whether you think you need it or not, I can't just leave you alone," Baxter said. "Plus, I feel like I owe you for sticking up for me back there with Ew, Goodie, and Flame. You wouldn't mind if I stayed here, just for tonight, right?" Whether she did or not, he was staying.
Okay, so it was more than just owing her. Baxter kind of liked Icia, more than he should. She was different from most females Baxter met. She didn't instantly reject him, and it was pretty decent of her to stand up for him against two Alphas of a pack. He was almost certain Icia didn't feel the same way about him, but still, it wouldn't stop him from trying to get her to like him.
"Please?" Baxter added. "I don't have anywhere else to stay, and I thought that a good friend like you might let me hang around her territory for awhile, right? Please? Pretty please?" Baxter whimpered dramatically, laying his head down on his paws in a classic dog beg.
(( Echoes, do you think you could put Anika up on the front page and that Baxter has a crush on Icia? ))
