He's A Good Dog.
By: BayBreeze
A/N: It's an awkward piece I know, but it came to me in a dream. So, with that said, what would happen if Jackson was turned into a dog that Lisa adopts?
'This isn't good. No…not good at all.'
He thought to himself as animal control hauled him off to the pound.
'How did I even get into this mess? How is it even possible for a human to be transformed into a dog?' The van stopped abruptly and Jackson went sliding across the slick floor of the van. The doors opened and light poured into the back of the van. The man from earlier made sure Jackson wouldn't get away and dragged the unwilling Jackson into a cage. Jackson barred his teeth a growled. The man laughed to himself and walked away, whistling as he left.
'This isn't right…I shouldn't be here…' Jackson whimpered and lay down on the cold floor, closing his eyes, and falling asleep.
'It's a crazy dream. I'll open my eyes and I'll be home in my bed, with two human legs, and two human arms, and I'll be human.'
Jackson opened his eyes and looked around. He yawned and looked at the young woman looking at him. '
Lisa?' Jackson barked happily and wagged his tail. Lisa laughed and reached into his cage, scratching behind his ear.
"Aren't you cute?" She said with a smile.
'If only you knew…'
"Sir? I think I'll adopt this one." Lisa said pointing to Jackson.
'What!'
Lisa led Jackson to her car by a leash she bought when she adopted him and opened the door on the passenger's side for Jackson to get in. Jackson sat down and looked at her, his tail thumping happily on the ground. Lisa laughed and scratched him under his chin.
'Oh yeah…right there…you got it, you got it.' Jackson barked happily and hopped in the car. Lisa smiled and got in, starting the car and getting onto the road.
"Hmm…well I think now is a good time to give you a name. Then we can go to PetSmart and make you a ID tag." She patted Jackson on the head and laughed when he licked her on the hand. She stopped at a red light and looked at the dog, his dark brown fur and his icy eyes.
"Jackson…your name is Jackson." She said with a smile as she started to pet Jackson again.
Lisa dug around in her purse for her keys and then, after locating them, unlocked the door. Jackson wagged his tail and followed Lisa inside. Lisa laughed and dumped the giant bag from PetSmart onto the floor. Squeaky toys, dog treats, dog food, a collar, Jackson's ID tag, and dog bed fell onto the floor and Jackson immediately hopped onto the bed.
"Not yet silly." Lisa said with a smile. She took off her shoes and tossed them in the corner as she sat down on the floor.
"Come here, boy" she said as she patted the floor next to her. Jackson looked up and obediently followed her command. Lisa patted him on the head and put his collar on, his silver circle shaped ID tag dangling from it.
"Don't you look handsome?" Lisa said as she stood up. She picked up Jackson's bed and the other items and went into her bedroom. She put the dog bed in the corner next to her bed and put the squeaky toys next to it. Jackson yawned and walked over to him bed, first sitting down, and then lying down on his new bed. Lisa laughed and started to change into her pajamas. After she finished, she jumped onto her bed and got comfortable. She looked at her new dog and smiled.
"Good night Jackson." She whispered and then turned of the light.
'I shouldn't be here either. I should be sleeping in a HUMAN bed, in HUMAN clothes, sleeping like a HUMAN! How did this even happen…' He didn't know. He couldn't even remember waking up this morning, or two mornings before that. Jackson yawned and closed his eyes.
'I guess all I can do is play along. Maybe I'll be able to fix this…after I spend some time with…Lisa.' Jackson closed his eyes and fell asleep, hoping that Lisa didn't throw a tennis ball like a sissy.
