Who saw the Christmas episode of Family Guy! It was so good, wasn't it? It was funny and great. The best part was the end of course. I was so happy!

The first week of the army passed by. Tomorrow I'm going back, and I'll write another chapter next weekend. Hope you enjoy this new chapter!

I do not own Family Guy

Chapter 12

A few weeks passed since Brian left his birthplace in Austen. He got accustomed to his new life, and it was a pretty good one as well. Every night, Brian was sleeping on Neil's bed. After a few nights Jessica found out about it, and asked Brian if he could sleep on her bed as well. Just like that, Brian had two beds he could call his own, which was more than enough considering how small he was.

During the weekdays, Brian stayed at home, usually alone, and watched television or played outside in the yard. He couldn't walk around the neighborhood by himself, but he did get his walks every night with Rachel or Rob. On the weekends, the whole family went on a little trip to visit a national park, a beach or a lake, and sometimes just walk around the street of Houston together. They were a family that liked to be outside.

It was a Sunday in June, and the family just headed home after a day at the beach. Rachel was driving and Rob was sitting at the passenger's seat. At the back bench, Brian was sitting in the middle on a towel, and the kids were sitting on boosters, each next to a different window.

"That was fun, huh?" Rob asked the kids.

Neil called out in agreement, and Jessica just nodded and smiled.

"Where should we go next week?" Rob wondered.

"How about we go to Austen?" Brian asked.

"What's in Austen?" Jessica asked curiously.

"My mom!" Brian said happily and turned his attention to Rachel. "You said we would visit her all the time, right?"

"Yes… We'll see about that."

The next week passed by very quickly for Brian. Before he knew it, Friday arrived. He went to sleep in Neil's bed, finding it hard to fall asleep because of his excitement.

On Saturday morning, Brian woke up and realized he was alone on Neil's bed. He headed downstairs and into the kitchen to get some breakfast.

In the hall just outside the kitchen, Brian could hear Rachel and Neil having a conversation about him. He stopped walking and listened.

"I think it's stupid."

"It's not stupid, Neil. You can't let Brian sleep on your bed for the next couple days. The same goes for you, Jessica."

"But why?" Neil asked.

"I already told you, he has flees. Once they're gone he can sleep on your beds again. We'll take him to the vet today." Rachel explained.

The vet? Brian though. Aren't we supposed to go to Austen today?

Suddenly he wasn't hungry anymore. He turned around and got away from the kitchen, only to find that Rob just entered the living room.

"Hey Brian, why don't you come and have breakfast with us?" Rob asked him.

"Sure…" Brian turned around once more and headed back to the kitchen.

"Good morning, Brian." Rachel smiled down to her dog. She put down a plate on the table with breakfast for him. He jumped on the chair and started eating.

"Are we going to Austen today?" Brian asked, even though he already knew the answer.

"Austen?" Rachel asked, surprised. "How come?"

"Don't you remember?" Brian asked sadly. "We talked about it last week."

"Oh… Yes, of course I remember" Rachel answered uncomfortably. "I'm sorry, Brian. We can't go today, we have to take you to the vet to get rid of those flees."

"Alright, then. Maybe next week." Brian said, disappointed, and continued to eat his breakfast silently.
