She leaned back against him, his muscular body serving as her backrest. She continued to type on her computer, words flowing through her fingertips until she felt him shift slightly. She looked up to meet him in the eye.
“You okay, boy?” she asked him, worried that something was wrong. He just barked happily in reply and stuck out his tongue in a pant. She smiled and continued working.
This is what she had missed the most when she was gone and she was sure glad to have him back. He was her comforter and her protector. She would always need him.
He walked around the bed causing her upper body to fall backwards. “Thanks, Oreo.” She said playfully as she caught her laptop and moved some pillows to take his place behind her. “You were making a good pillow.”
He ignored her facetious statement and settled down beside her. Forgetting her short story, she closed her computer and set it on the floor beside her. She had more important business to attend to.
He was completely comfortable as she roughly wrapped her arms around him and pulled him as close as he could come. She never wanted to let go of him. Laying down beside him, his warm body let her know that this was home and that everything was okay for the time being. She suddenly didn’t care about anything. She didn’t care what problems she might have to deal with tomorrow or what someone would need her to do. She just laid her head next to his and held him as he fell asleep. He is her home.
my babyyyyy.
