His blurred eyes

Puppy

"So that's what I said to her! And you know what she said?! Miss thang- wha- Nova?"
Nola looks back at me. I stopped walking and stare at a man with a dog.

Walking around. Soon, Nola joins me.
"He's so cute Nola. I want one."

The girl hits my head and I wince. What was that for?
"You can barely look after yourself and you want a dog?!"

I flash her an angel smile.
"I have you to help me." 

"No."
"Oh come on Nola!"

She starts walking away from me and I follow her like a little kid wanting a toy I saw in a toy store.
"It's so cute, how can you refuse it?"

"I said no Nova!"
I stop in front of her.
"Please?" I ask. Innocent eyes coming out.

"No is no Nova. You're not getting a dog."

"I can't believe I did this." Nola mutters.
We're in a dog store. I'm going to adopt one.

Even if she stayed by her 'no' mood, I would've adopted one myself.
"Hi, how can I help you today?"

"Are there any golden retrievers up for adoption?" I ask, looking around the room at the dogs in cages, all waiting to be adopted.

"Sure ma'am. Follow me." I look back at Nola and smile brightly. She sighs and starts moving with me.

"This girl is going to be the death of me." Nola adds.

The man lets me look at all the dogs, jumping towards me. One little creature catches my eye.
It's so beautiful!

He's so furry and innocent. I want it. I immediately point at it.
"I want to adopt that one, please."

The man nods, releasing the puppy. The little cute thing walks to me. I softly pet him.

He enjoys it. Welcome to the family puppy.
The employee smiles at the little gestured between the both of us and soon leaves to sort the papers out.

I leave the doggie for a while to go to the man. I pay the amount with my credit card, not even looking at the price.

I am way too happy.
"Congratulations! You just got your first dog. Here's a book that'll help you with taking care of him."

I take it happily and smile at the man that helped me. I pick up the cage my baby was in and make my way to George whom is waiting in the car.

"Help me get him out of this."
I say to Nola. Trying to get the sleeping dog out of his closed-up environment.

"I don't think that's a good idea, Nova."
I death glare at her.
"Just do it."

She gives up and helps me with the puppy. I softly lift him up and put him on my lap, on a blanket.

He looks like an angel. I hesitate before petting him, scared I might wake him up. He didn't.

Just like the angel it is.

"Oh my god!! You got a doggie!" I put a finger over my mouth so that she understands she should be silent.

I kneel to the ground to let my sister see him. She soon understands that he's asleep.
"Are you happy?" I whisper to the girl next to me, standing in awe while looking at the puppy.

She nods her cute little head.
"Do you have a name?" She whispers back.

"How about...'Angel'?"
Anastasia gasps and puts her two thumbs up. Showing her approval for the name.

I mentally chuckle. He's an angel.
In the corner of the room, Aziel leans on the wall. Looking at Ana and me.

I turn to him and smile. He, instead of smiling back, turns swiftly and leaves upstairs.

Probably going to my room.
"Ana? Why don't you go play with Nola?"

She immediately runs to my friend and attacks her. While I move upstairs with the pup in my arms.

"Aziel?"

He turns with wide eyes. Still hazel.
"Don't come near me."

My eyebrows furrow, surprised at his sudden worse. Is it because of...that kiss?
"Woah...do you want to avoid me that bad?"

He shakes his head as he runs the back of his neck.
"No, it's not...because of that..."

I take a step closer and he takes a step back.
"Is little demon Aziel embarrassed?"
His eyes flash red for a second as he states:

"I said it isn't because of the kiss!"
"Alright, alright, I get it. Then why...are you backing away from me?"

He avoids my curious eyes. His long finger points at me. Precisely, my arms. Is it because of the dog?

"You're scared of dogs?"
Aziel bites his plump lips I kissed yesterday. Nodding his handsome head.

I chuckle. Is he serious?
"Aziel...Angel's just a baby. You're a fucking demon, how are you scared of this precious little thing?"

He shrugs his shoulders and looks away from me. I take his cold hand. His eyes get even bigger as I near him.

"Wha- no, no, no. Nova don't!"
"Do you trust me?"

I can hear his loud gulp and he slowly but surely nods.
I take his hand and place it on his soft fur.
Aziel's eyes are shut tightly.

I move his hand with mine over the puppy.
One of his eyes open and soon they are both open. Facing his fear.

"His name is...Angel?"
I nod and chuckle. Removing my hand. Aziel being in on his own.

"Ironic, isn't it? You're a demon...and he's an angel." Aziel grabs my hand and puts it back on top of his.

Our hands being in the same position as a few minutes ago.
"It is...but that's what's good about you...

"Nova."

I softly smile at the man and this time he returns it. Oh, how I wanted to feel his lips again.

I feel the dog squirm under my hold. I leave his hand and put Angel on the silky bed sheets.

He soon fully wakes up and stand up. Looking at me with big puppy eyes.
"Hi, Angel. Don't worry..."

"I'll take good care of you."
