I couldn't sleep: obviously I exaggerated with the Coca-Cola...
I had even need an hour to fall asleep, and it was a light sleeper, ad I seemed to hear some noises from the entrance door: probably, it was however a dream...
At 3:30 a.m., after sixty minutes of night's sleep, my neighbor upstairs (great night owl) made a fairly loud noise with her hooves and, inevitably, woke up: sooo good...
I opened an eye, and I saw six dark shapes neatly arranged in a row in front on my sofa.
One of them moved and licked my cheeck: so I decided to force myself and also I opened the second eye, too.
The creature who licked me was a beautiful 4-5 month old German Shepherd pup, with a blue collar and a little medal with the symbol of American Police.
I smiled sweetly to him:-Hello!
-Good morning!-he answerd, politely
I sit down on the sofa, and I observed the other shapes I had noticed: they were dog's puppies, too, approximately with the same age of the first.
In order, I recognized:
-A Dalmatian, with a red collar and a little medal with a flame
-A Mixed Breed, with a green collar and a little medal with the recycle symbol
-A Chocolate Labrador, with an orange collar and a little medal with an anchor
-An English Bulldog, with an yellow collar and a little medal with an english key and a bolt
-A Cockapoo, with a pink collar and a little medal with a propeller
I made local mind: I already seen them...but where?
The spotted puppy became aware of my moment of loss, and answered:-There's something wrong?
-No, no-I reassured him-But I known yours muzzles...
-Maybe, if we say our names, your memory will go back-commented the German Shepherd
-Probably...-I consented
-Ok-said the blue pup-My name is Chase, and they are Marshall, Rocky, Zuma, Rubble and Skye.
-Ah, now I remember!-I exclaimed-You are the PAW Patrol, and you are really, really famous here...
-Oh, thanks-giggled the Mixed Breed pup-Anyway yes, we are...
I showed up, too, but I had several questions to ask, and the first in line was:-Why you are in Italy?
-Long story...-muttered Zuma
-I've all night to listen it-I invited him-Tell me all...
Alternatly, the pups tell me the story about their dismiss, which you can find in the first chapter.
The first curiosity was satisfied, and it was the time of the second:-Why you are in my living room?
-When they sent us overseas, the staff of the television company worked to find a new family for us, and they took us to your home-explained Rubble-You can keep us?
-I have to talk about it with my parents, but I think there aren't problems...-I said
The dogs rejoiced, and my curiosities was all satisfied except one:-How you enter in my house?
Skye scrunched his nose:-It wasn't really difficult, because the door wasn't locked...
-WHAT?! Oh, no...-I complained, fearing that entered some ill-intentioned
-Keep calm-reassured me Rocky-We are here from you fall asleep, and we haven't noticed any suspicious movement.
-Thank god...-I said, taking my phone
-Who are you calling?-asked Chase
-A my mum's friend who have a pet accessories shop where she bathe the dogs-I explained, plugging Rocky's ears to prevent him hearing the word "bathe"-If you want to live here, you must pass this test, because my mother is a clean freak...
-Ok-accepted the pups
Despite was 4:00 a.m., the woman agreeded to open her shop for us.
Everything ran smoothly, until it was Rocky's turn: it took me about fifteen minutes to convince him to get into the tub, and only after the pup thought that, if he hadn't washed, he could spend his life on the streets, he accepted.
At 6:00 a.m., when the first lights of the dawn lit the city, the dogs' washing was finish and, after thanking the groomer, I could go home with the pups and try to recover the hours of sleep which we had lose.
The rest of my family, however, would arrive around 10:00 a.m., and the we slept only for three hours.
When my father crossed the entrance of our home, he noticed my little guests and he said:-Who are they?
I explained all the situation to my parents, they spoke to each other for a while and then my mother sighed:-Ok, pups, you are welcome...
-Thanks, miss!-exclaimed the puppies, happy
It was official: the PAW Patrol had been part in my family.
But it wasn't the biggest surprise...
