The Adventures of Audrey and I

Chapter 3

Ugly Joins the Club

I gotta say, Will getting a girl really did shock me. Not like he never gets girls every now and again he will pick up some chick, Then like a month later something will go wrong. However in the last 4 or 5 months he wasn't much with the ladies, so it was sorta a shock for him to be going on a date. Anyway, Audrey, Hailie, and I all had just about nothing to do when Will was gone considering he was our main source of entertainment, and he hadnt unpacked his TV yet. Hailie had been bugging us lately about a dog, she wanted a little puppy to call hers considering we weren't planning on putting her in school any time soon, so friends were hard to come by. We would've gotten her a dog a while ago but the apartment we were living in had a strict, No dogs, rule. We all got in our little car and decided what better to do then go look at dogs, so we did.

The Pet store

We arrived at the pet store just as it was getting dark, it always took forever to get there because it was on the complete opposite side of the town. We pulled up and i stepped out of the car, Audrey stepped out and opened Hay hays door so she could get out. Hailie hopped out of the car nearly not landing the fall and looked up at the store as if it was a giant piece of chocolate, then her eyes fell upon a little puppy. Not exactly the dog I was intending on getting, it was a pug. You know, Pugs, the little dogs with the stubby tails and the squishy faces. He was cute, I guess. Hailie ran up to the glass and jumped up and down.

“This one daddy!” She said still jumping up and down the pug now sticking out his tongue and watching hailie every move as if they were already best friends.

“W’ell see” I opened the door to the shop and walked in holding it open for Audrey and Hai.

“No daddy, I want this one” She crossed her arms and gave me a look, like, Bitch i can stab you in your sleep.

Well, i guess it would make her happy if we got a dog, so we did.

Home

We took home the pug and he seamed excited to see the house. He ran around the front room as hailie chased him finally jumping onto the couch and settling down, Hailie right behind him. His name was Ralph, Who named a pug Ralph? The named that pet stores always give dogs are never very good, and the name Ralph didn't sit very well with any one in the family, Including the pug himself. You would call his name and he would go on as if you never said anything.

“Ralph! Come here boy” No response, I was destine of finding a name for him. “Uhh Charlie, Come here!” Nothing.. “hm, Ugly! “

He turned his face, stuck out his tongue and lunged half way across the room onto my lap. 

“Ugly it is” Said Audrey passing by

“Ugly ugly ugly!” Repeated Hailie

“I think it fits.”

  The next morning

   "Did Will ever come home last night?"

   "I don't think so, but I haven't checked his room."

   "Eh, whatever, fix my tie?" I leaned over to Audrey.

    She was always better then me at putting on ties, I always did it crooked and the knot in the middle was usually way to big. So Whenever I needed anything done that involved a tie, she was my lady. She started to redo my horrible excuse for a knot.

   "Why do you need a tie anyway?"

   "I thought you kept up with this type of shi-" Hailie suddenly started to hum interrupted me "Uhh with this type of (long awkward pause) stuff"

   I had what i considered a large job interview this morning, Not that anyone in my family took note of it at all. I'm a writer, and you know those writers in movies? The ones that get totally wasted and write in their basements to come up with some sort of masterpiece? Thats what I aim for, except I fail at the whole masterpiece thing. Anyway, my point is, that never pulls in enough money. I hate real jobs.

   "Dinners at 7" Audrey said as i walked out the door. "Don't be late. Or you die"

   "I piddy da fool" Its always nice to hear  Hailie's input.
