The rest of the day me and Noah ordered pizza and watched movies putting of leaving the apartment in such crappy weather. Around 11 at night I kissed Noah's cheek and said around noon I'd be at the shop so they could head to the best puppy shop(according to Noah). Then as soon as I got to my apartment I slipped under the smooth covers and fell asleep. Even though it was storming outside I never woke up till morning. I smiled when I woke and grabbed a granola bar and ate as I slipped into my nicest dark wash denim jeans. I took a while deciding which top to where after much confliction I pulled on a tight white tee- shirt. I pushed in my gold hoop earrings and decided to sport my new nikes. I smiled at myself in the mirror and looked down at my watch great I'm late for meeting Kurt for coffee.

I arrived at the small café shortly after Kurt and he studies my face as we picked out a table in the back. His light blue eyes raked over my face and body with such examination you'd think he was straight.

"You look quite glowing, Miss Berry, for someone who just broke it off with their fiancé." He said gesturing towards me as he dipped his latte against his lips and took a drawl out sip. I shrugged nonchalantly and took a long gulp from my black coffee.

"I'm a quick healer." I winked and he just scoffed; rolling his eyes at me as if he could see straight into my thoughts.

"Please, Rachel, you cried when you saw a stray cat get squashed down by a bike." I winced at the memory which still made me upset recall the cats whimpers.

"Hey, I'm an animal lover and it kills me to see anything like that." I said taking another long gulp from my coffee. Holding it to my nose and taking in its strong smell.

"But now you caught your fiancé and your best friend fooling around in your own bed and your fine a few days later! It's outrageous!" he said shrilly earning a few stares from incoming costumers. I blushed and hushed Kurt so we wouldn't win anymore glances.

"Kurt, I'm fine!" I said drawling out the fine as if to exaggerate its meaning.

"Rachel, answer me this our you considering you know ending your own life because of the deceit?" Kurt asked concern coating his voice and his eyes swelling with intruding tears.

"Kurt, No! don't be so dramatic!" I said getting up from my seat I finished off my coffee in chug and said my sorry's to Kurt. I threw over my shoulder to Kurt for good measure so that it let him grovel. "I met someone who understands the whole cheating boyfriend/girlfriend thing." I waved by and started walking down the streets to Noah's shop.

I walked in on him finishing up a costumer his bowed head looked up and smiled at me. I wave silently and take a seat waiting for Noah to finish up his work. A half an hour passes and the happy older man leaves with a tattoo of a beautiful woman on his bicep that read 1971- 2019. I smiled sadly as the old man thanked Noah and left. Noah gave me a toothy grin and pulled me in for a brief hug.

"Sorry, he was a walk-in. It's weird he didn't look sad right?" He asked at me and I shook my head. "His wife died after died at 47 in a car accident. She was driving to the hospital cause Jack, the guy you just saw, tripped at fell at work and spilt his chin open. She was so distracted she didn't see the… yeah, it was sad."

"That is so sad. I can't imagine what that must feel like." I said sadly as I looked down at his calloused hands.

"But it makes my job that much more special to me; knowing I but a part of his wife on his arm. All he has to do is look down and see her." He smiled sadly. "Makes me wish my parents were like that." He said as we began to walk out the door.

"What happened? If you don't mind me asking." I said timidly as I hesitantly grabbed his hand gently and rubbed it softly before letting go.

"Long story." He said shrugging as he turned left down a street and I followed suit.

"Is it a long walk?" I said smirking up at him.

"Long enough." He said smiling before continuing, "My mom had cancer and got over it and my dad was there through the whole thing. He never left her side. But when the cancer came back the last time it was set to take her with it. And my mom didn't want any more surgeries; she didn't want to spend her last days in a hospital room. And my dad never real got over that to him it seemed like she was letting go and giving up." He sighed and I clutched his hand tighter giving him reassurance. "So he was at a bar one night wallowing his sorrows in a bottle of vodka when he 'fell in love' with a woman a few stools over from him. They had an affair while my mom was fucking dying." He let out a ragged breath and held tighter to my hand.

"Noah…" I said softly looking up at him. But he just sucked in the cool air of March and changed the subject.

"So have you thought of the breed you want? You left me hanging yesterday with a 'I don't know I'll research it'. Geez Berry." He mock admonished me smirking slightly. I smiled and a blush crept up my cheeks.

"Well, it really depends on what dogs they have available today." I said but at his eye roll continued. "I would really like a German Shepard, a Golden Retriever, or a Dalmatian." He nodded approvingly as he pointed to a larger shop colored with purple paint. I jumped up and down excitingly as I ran to the door. When I walked in I let out a gasp as there were rows upon rows of puppies. They were divided by gender and breed. We went to the boy isle because I thought a boy would get along best with Luke. It went in size order form tiny dogs like Chihuahuas to the bigger dogs like Newfoundland's. The three dog breeds I was deciphering from where all right near each other so I didn't have to move around much. I was leaning towards going to play with one of the German shepherds but then I saw one of the dogs in the crate next to them. They were so different and cute I just fell in love with them. So I picked out one that just drew me to him. I pointed to him and Noah picked him up and walked over to the playroom. We rolled the ball around for him to chase after and he just loved running after that ball. It was so spunky and adorable. I decided that this little man was the one I wanted. With his specks of brown, black, white, tan, and gray he was such an odd ball I had to have him. I paid for him and bought a leash so I could walk him to hail a taxi so we could go to a local pet store.

"His really cite Rachel. What are you gonna name him?" Noah asked as he leaned his face down to the puppy who was slouching over Rachel's shoulder.

"You know how he was running after and pouncing after the ball?" Noah nodded as he kissed the puppies forehead. You're cute, Noah breathed into the puppies fur. The puppy thanked Noah for the compliment and love by a nice warm slippery kiss. "I was thinking Chase." I said as I hugged Chase tighter to me and kissed his face everywhere I could. Chase kissed all over my face until it was damp with puppy kisses.

"That is adorable Rachel." Noah said as he kissed my cheek and pointed across the street to the pet store. "Shallow we?" I nodded avidly and scurried into the store with chase in my arms.

Later we left with many (MANY) doggie toys, several bones, a collar, a leash, the best puppy food, dog dishes, puppy shampoo, a puppy training book. When Noah walked me into the apartment he made sure Chase was happy with the Queen sized bed he's be sharing with me. I watched as Noah patted Chase's head and gave him a kiss good-bye as Chase settled himself in a mound of blankets. Noah promised he'd make an appointment with his vet for Chase and let me know when it was. I thanked him and went to close the door before he stopped it with his foot.

"I got you a surprise." He said smiling brightly as he pulled out a dog's toy that was meant to look like a waffle from his back pocket. I gave him a tight squeeze of a hug and kissed his cheek before telling him I'd see him soon.

That night I slipped under the covers and was about to fall asleep when Chase licked my face gently and curled into my side. Right then, I knew Chase was going to be the best dog I always wanted through my childhood.
