The deep rumble of an engine set off an unsure whine and a series of scratches at the hotel door.
"Shhhhh" slurred Zula, hidden in the covers. One of her legs hanging off the side of the bed, the other propped against the headboard, while her face is buried in a drool covered pillow clutched in her right arm. Her brunette hair either stuck to her face or tangled in a ponytail she never took out. This did nothing to calm her companion however, as the beautiful golden short coated collie mix only escalated her warning, starting to pace and yip.
"Uhhhggggggmmmmookay okay, thank you for telling me how you feel baby." The 6ft woman says throwing the covers off of her, proceeding to fall on to the hotel carpet on her way to sooth her pet. As she crouches to stroke the dogs head she takes a peek out her window into the back parking lot of the motel.
"See babe, it's just some assholes with no consideration for those of us with sensitive ears." She says scratching the dogs ears. "On the other hand they have some bitching taste in cars." She says pointing at the two men climbing out of the black Impala. She continues to cautiously watch them until they are finished lugging their bags into the room on the corner. Never ready to dismiss anything that sets off Lady's radar so quickly.
"Ok Hun, the loud men are in their people kennel for the night, are you ready to go back to sleep? Up." She says gesturing towards the bed, Lady relents with a last glance towards the door, jumping directly into the center of the bed. With an admonishing look from her person she stretches and crawls slightly to the side, so her 275lb owner can just squeeze into the opening left on the bed. As both settle in hoping to squeeze a little more sleep out of what's left of the night the woman smiles to herself, grateful to have Lady to look out for her.
