Y/N - your name

Requested by Katie! I will used Y/N for other readers preferences❤️

"Please Y/N!" My nagging boyfriend, Mason, begs as we stand in the kitchen having breakfast. "Mason you know I'm not a lover of dogs." I said as he sighed. "But imagine if we had a dog together." He said as I rolled my eyes. "Babe I don't want one and that's the end of discussion!" I raised my voice as I walked out of the kitchen into our shared bedroom.

Now I had a bloody good reason to not like dogs. I was attacked by a dog when I was about 4 and had to get surgery to fix my thigh since it bit right through my flesh. As much as I was angry that I lost a bit of my thigh, I don't blame the dog as it was a reflex as it was abused in a previous home until my friend rescued it. I went to pet it on the head even though my friend told me not to and in the end it was my fault I was attacked.

As much as I don't blame the dog, I still can't help being afraid. It's like if you go on a rollercoaster and your seatbelt unbuckled right before you take off, you become scared to go on the ride and you'll do anything to no go on that ride. It's like when a spider jumps on you and then you're afraid of spiders. But now Mason really wanted a dog but I was too afraid to have one.

I sit down on our bed and sigh as I shook my head. I knew that the dog would be okay if we took it to classes and even doggy day care but I couldn't help get that sickening feeling and those flashbacks. I look down at my thigh and see the scar along my right thigh and sigh. I hear a knock on the door as I see Mason standing in the door frame.

"Babe I'm sorry." He said as I shook my head. "Why are you saying sorry Mason?" I asked as he walked in the room and sat beside me. "Because I started a small argument because I want a dog but I understand why you don't want one. I would feel the exact same way if the shoe was on the other foot." He said as he placed his hand on my thigh where the scar was.

I sigh as I smile at him. "But I know you really want a dog so how about we go and look for a puppy and see what happens." I said as he shook his head. "I don't want to force you babe." He said as I placed my hand on his. "I really like dogs. They so cute but it's just the fear. I need to get over my fears one day anyway." I said as he smiled at me. "Only if you want." He said as I nodded.

"Okay well lets go to the SPCA (I hope that's what's it's called in your country but it's basically where you can adopt dogs and stranded dogs in South Africa) and see if we can find a puppy." He said as I smiled at him. I stood up with him and put on my shoes as I grabbed my phone and we walked out the door into his car. "Okay so let's go and get the dog first before we buy all the necessary items we need to raise the puppy." He said as I chuckled at him. "Raise? Is this now our kid?" I asked as he nodded his head.

I shook my head as I smile at his cuteness. We start our drive to the SPCA and within a few minutes, we are parked and getting out of the car. "Babe if you get scared or anything like that, please let me know and we can leave immediately." He said as he grabbed my right hand. I smile at him as I give him a slight squeeze, "I will. Thanks babe." I said as I kissed his cheek. We walk in and are greeted by the receptionist.

"Hiya! How can I help you two?" The receptionist asked as we smiled at her. "We are looking to adopt a dog." Mason said as we smiled at her. "Sure thing. Puppy?" She asked as we nodded. "Alright. Just wait a little bit and we will show you the puppies we currently have." She said as we nodded and thanked her. We sat for a little bit until she came back to us and ushered us up to come and look at some puppies.

We walk in and there are many dogs in the cages. The barking is loud and I couldn't help feel overwhelmed. "You okay?" Mason asked as I nodded. "Yeah. I'll get used to it." I said as he moved his hand from my own to my waist and gave it a reassuring squeeze.

"Okay so these are 12 week year old Border Collie's. They are all super lovable and calm. They also bred to learn new tricks so if you ever want to have a show dog, these are the perfect pups for you." She said as she opened the cage for us and we walked in. The momma dog sat up and came to inspect us. I tensed up as she came and sniffed my hands. "Don't worry love. It's okay!" The lady reassured me as I gave her a smile.

Soon the momma dog was wagging her tail and jumping on me for tickles. I relaxed a bit as I gave her some tickles. While doing that, Mason was being attacked by all the puppies and myself and the lady couldn't help but laugh at him. "What do you think babe?" He asked as I smiled. "I really like these cuties but let's go look at the rest." I said as he nodded, happy that I'm more relaxed than before.

We continue to look at all different types of puppies such as Labradors and even Dalmatians. "So have you guys made a decision?" The lady asked as we walked out from playing with the Dalmatians. "I really like the Border Collie's." I said as Mason agreed with me. "Great. Do you guys want one or two or more?" She asked as she chuckled lightly. "Just one." I said as Mason looked at me and gave me puppy dog eyes. "No." I said as he laughed as we walked back to their cage.

As we were walking there, I couldn't help let my eyes wonder to a cage to my right, very close to the Border Collie's. "What dog is in here?" I asked as I took a look inside. "That Lexi. She's a Staffordshire." She said as I took a closer look at her. She was brown and white and looked pretty old. "How old is she?" I asked as the lady gave me a smile. "She's about 7 years old." She said as I nodded. "Is she good with other dogs?" I asked as the lady nodded.

I smiled as I looked at her once again. I couldn't help but fall in love with Lexi as I continued to look at her. "Can I meet her?" I asked as the lady nodded. Mason grabbed my hand as I smiled at him "Yes I'm sure babe." I said before he could even ask. I walked in and Lexi stood up and came and sniffed my hand. Her tail instantly started wagging as I tickled her. I spent some time with her along with Mason and knew I needed this dog in my life.

"Mason?" I questioned as he looked at me. "Please can we get Lexi?" I asked as he smiled. "But the Border Collie." He said as I giggled. "Why not get both? Lexi is good with other dogs. It makes sense." I said as his face lit up like a house with Christmas lights. "Really?" He questioned as I nodded. The lady smiled at us, "Mr Mount, let's go and get one of the Border Collie's while I call one of the other ladies to help and get Lexi out for you two." She said as Mason nodded.

Soon after some paper work, we were in the car and driving to the shops to get all the food and necessary items these two cuties will need. I looked behind me at the back seat to see Lexi and Pixie, our Border Collie, cuddled up together as I smiled. "Thanks for this babe." I said as Mason chuckled. "I should actually say thanks because I was the one who wanted dogs in the first place" he said as he both laughed. "Now we have our own little family." I said as I grabbed his hand that was on my thigh as we made our way to the shops.
