"And so, is there any specific breed or pups you guys want?" a staff member at the animal shelter asked Angel and I. He was a younger white guy that kept talking our heads off.

Just as I was about to answer, Angel spoke. "No. She just wants a puppy." she mockingly chuckled. The guy began to laugh with Angel.

I rolled my eyes while continuing to walk.

"Aw, come back. I was just teasing." Angel sighed. "Can you stop playing? I'm trying to find our son and you keep joking around. This is serious." I spoke.

"I know." Angel rolled her eyes little, chuckling.

"Oh my god, wait- you guys are like a thing? No way, that's so cool. I totally love diverse couples." the guy expressed with the most amazed look.

"Yea, me too." I awkwardly smiled. "Do you have any mixed breeds?" I suddenly asked, changing the topic.

"Oh yea. Plenty! Come on." the guy smiled, overly excited to show us. As he started walking I gave him a look a little. "Bae-" Angel started laughing into my shoulder.

"What?" I chuckled a little.

"Stop being mean." Angel pushed me a little. "I'm not." I smiled.

Angel and I continued looking around at the different puppies. Angel thought some of them were cute, but I didn't.

As we were walking through another hall full of puppies, I noticed a cage that looked almost empty. I did a double take and saw a tiny puppy curled up inside, facing the corner.

The puppy was black, brown and white, with very soft looking fur.

"What's wrong with this one?" I wondered, walking closer to the cage. "Oh, that one. We think he has anxiety or something of the sort. He's not very playful and doesn't warm up to people whatsoever." the younger guy explained.

"It may have something to do with his separation from his mother at such a young age. Not quite sure." he continued.

"Can I see him?" I asked. "Uh, you can try but he doesn't like people." the guy chuckled while unlocking the cage. Angel walked a little closer to us.

"Aw, he's so tiny." Angel softly spoke. I smiled a little at her reaction.

I turned my attention back to the puppy as he was being placed in my arms. I noticed his tail immediately began to wag.

The puppy nearly jumped into my arms. I instantly fell in love with how warm and soft he was. I smiled a little as he attempted to climb up my body.

"Welp, guess I was wrong. He seems to like you." the guy smiled. "Mhm." Angel smiled, tickling the puppy.

"Angel." I smiled a little. "Yea?" Angel answered, still lightly caressing the puppy. "You like him?" I asked her. "Yes! He's cute." Angel stated. "He is. I want him Angel." I told her.

"Let's adopt him." Angel had the cutest smile on her face. I nodded very excitedly.

Before we knew it, we were taking the cute little puppy home. I couldn't help but stare at his cuteness. He was a mixed breed, part Bernese and the other part was still unknown.
