I'm freaking out. Rae is hysterically laughing in the back of the car and Tori and I can't believe what we just did. Glancing down at the puppy sitting on the floor with his or her tongue hanging out, I really realize what I did.
"Rae this isn't funny! We just stole a dog!" Julie exclaims from the backseat.
"We didn't steal a dog," I say glancing back at Julie. Her eyes are wide and I feel just about as concerned as she looks. I can't help but laugh at everything that has happened in the past thirty minutes. We were driving back from a restaurant and we might have found a dog on the side of the road. And we might have taken it. I have no idea what type of dog it is and it doesn't have a collar so we are thinking that he just got dumped on the side of the road.
"Okay everyone stop saying we stole a dog. Let's think about this logically," Tori offers leaning in between Rae and me. We are almost back to campus so we really might be screwed.
"Carter, what did you learn from that stupid pets class you are taking?" Rae asks still chuckling a little. In all honesty, I think she's laughing cause she is in full-blown panic mode.
"Um if it doesn't have a collar it could have a chip that would tell you where he's from," I explain remember what my psycho pets teacher said. She's not psycho but definitely an interesting soul.
"So like, how do we do that?" Julie asks as Rae turns into student parking.
"We have to go to a vet," I explain turning to look at her. Julie's eyes widen because she is very convinced that we just stole some poor family's dog. To be honest I don't think we did. He or she looked like it was there for a good amount of time but not long enough to look too underfed.
"The vets are probably closed at this time," Tori says glancing at her phone. She looks back over at me and I put my hands up in defense. Does it look like I know what to do?
"Now what? We can sneak a dog into a dorm," Julie says laughing at the thought. I glance over at Rae and she glances at me. I feel Julie sit up straighter, "No. Oh no no no, we are not sneaking a dog into our dorm."
"I didn't say that!" I defend myself even though that's exactly what I was thinking. I know Rae thought of it too cause suddenly she is full-on focused on parking.
"You were thinking about it. You and Rae both were," she mumbles back. Tori laughs shaking her head. She glances down at the dog, who is leaning against my leg by my feet. Rae puts the car into park and leans back into her seat glancing at the dog.
"Okay, here's the plan, we can take it to Q's frat for the night and bring it to the vet tomorrow," Tori suggests looking between all of us. I glance at the cute little dog and I can't bring myself to let it go to a fucking frat.
"No way. Q would somehow get it a, high or b, drunk. No way," Rae states as the dog moves. Tori sighs glancing down at the dog as it goes up on four paws.
