The sun's rays melted into Dexter's skin. It was so hot, he had taken his t-shirt off before any unwanted tan lines. He was not used to such warm weather. Dexter's arm acted as a shield for his face. Although, the sun's glare still somehow reached his eyes. He rolled onto his stomach. His nose was filled with the scent of grass.

His new puppy's jingling collar was the first thing he heard. Remmy, his puppy, might have been trying to sneak up on Dexter, but the collar pretty much prevented this. You could hear Remmy coming a mile away. Remmy jumped over his head to lick Dexter's face. He laughed, and tried to escape Remmy, but Remmy was a relentless little puppy.

Dexter's laugh was fucking gorgeous. That was the first thought Saracen had when he walked over. He shook the thought away quickly, "Um… whose dog is that?" Saracen raised his eyebrows.

Dexter looked up and smiled, "He's mine. I got a new puppy."

"And you didn't tell me?" Saracen frowned.

Dexter shrugged, "It was a surprise."

Saracen looked at the puppy for a moment. Remmy had light brown fur and large round blue eyes, "Hello there-" Remmy bit Saracen's nose," Ouchhh, Dex, your puppy is a menace!"

Dexter smiled at Saracen, "That's what puppies do!" His smile was warm and genuine; Saracen was in love with it.
