Chapter 2- Pain Brings Strength

3 months later...

Buefard was as down as a dog could get, for the past 3 months he has been going everyday to Davis' waiting for Fiena but she never showed up,for the 3 months his tail hasn't wagged and he barely smiled,Redd has been resting alot so he hasn't seemed to notice,Bonefied hasn't been home not that he would is walking to Davis' again looking down frowning,his thoughts racing,"Maybe she's there...maybe not...maybe she hates me...maybe...No just have faith...have faith." As he turned a corner he saw a pitbull and a pug,he thought"Oh no Rhino and Tank!" Tank is the pitbull he is very muscular,the small pug is Rhino he uses Tank to get what he wants and forces Tank to hurt approaches Buefard and says,"What are you doin' on my turf?"Buefard gulps and tries to run but Tank tackles him and holds him to the floor by his neck,Rhino goes to Buefard's face and smirks"Bad move kid now we have to hurt you very-" Rhino is suddenly tackled and thrown aside then Tank gulps and runs with Rhino in his gets frightned that something could scare Tank,he hears a rough voice,"Ok kid calm down their gone now,get up."Buefard looks up to see a bulldog,he notes the scar over the dead right eye and the limp in his walk,"You ok kid I'm T-Bone."Buefard had heard of him he's the sourest dog on this a talk T-Bone asked why Buefard looked sad,he replied"Well you see theres this girl and-"he gets interupted"No no no no,enough I don''t want to hear any of it just go and be safe ok kid,and I'll see you around."Buefard thanks him then walks towards Davis' and makes plans to see T-Bone tommorow to hopefully be the first person to be friends with he reaches his destination and enters, before he can say hi,Davis says,"Sorry boy Fiena aint' here today." Buefard looked sadly at the floor,then heard Davis chuckling"Hahaha i wish I could've seen your face,don't worry boy she's in the shak,she been singing sad songs go cheer up my baby ok."Buefard smiled and raced outside and ranto the shak he peeked in the door and Davis was right she was singing quietly and sadly,he smiled and wrapped her in a hug from behind,she jumped but turned around and smiled warmly then hugged back,she started crying alittle,"I-I'm sorry I couldn't be here for awhile my boss Lazar wouldn't let me leave." she snifled then he soothingly ran his paw down her back and said,"Hey hey it's ok i'm glad your here ok,I understand." she replied,"O-ok and I was worried, Davis said you've been comeing for so long he thought you were gonna give up and I kinda did too." they stayed in silence until she calmed down,he said softly in her ear,"Don't worry Fiena I'll never abandon you ok." she smiled and they sat next to each other and talked for hours and hours catching up. He told her of his encounter with Tank and Rhino and how T-Bone saved him, she had a scared look and nuzzled his neck softly then said,"Don't ever get in trouble like that again." she scolded,"What would've happened if that nice dog wasn't their to help you,I wouldn't be able to bare to see you hurt."She looked scared so he placed his paw on hers and said playfully,"Yes ma'am."she smirked then pushed him on his back and snuggled on top of his chest then said,"Ok mister I forgive you but for scaring me you have to be my big pillow again until I say so." he smirked and said,"That's fine wth me." then they snuggled the whole night and were the happiest they have been in months.

The next couple of weeks they saw each other non-stop every day,T-Bone promised Buefard he would watch Redd at a distance just to be safe,Lazar gave up trying to contain Fiena so they either hung out with Davis' or went to the shak wich was like their getaway,they became very close together. One day their in the shak cuddling as usual Fiena's resting on his chest, Buefard see's a knick in her left ear he feels it with his paw she feels it and looks at him and says,"Don't worry about it it's nothing Lazar just-" Buefard gets up making her go on her paws alittle rough but she sees him slightly growling and his fur standing up he says,"No Fiena it's not ok he hurt you didn't he?" she slowly nods and she sees anger in his eyes,"Please calm down, it was along time ago, I hate seeing you mad." she gently put her paw on his and he calmed got back to the position they were in and he said,"I'm sorry but I can't believe someone would lay a paw on you." she teared up and started explaining all the times she was hit and the things Lazar says to her. He held her close and whispers,"Don't worry Fiena I'll do my best to protect you from now on." she smiles slightly then kisses his chin,"Ok Buefard thank you." he smiles at her and asks"Why don't you just stay with Davis' instead of Lazar?" she replies"I've tried but he says if I do he'll kill Davis and Don." she sniffles and he rubs her back again,they lay in silence cuddling then Buefard says,"I'm sorry for getting mad I shouldn't have-" she puts a paw to his muzzle,"Shh it's ok you were just worried,you want to protect me,that's what I like about you." she blushes when she says that,and he raises a eyebrow at her,he decides not to pry into it and they continue on in sighs in content and hugs her tight she chuckles and asks"Not that I don't like it, but why all the affection?" he replies,"I'm just happy when I'm with you thats all." she smiles and nuzzles him then they fall asleep happily.

The next morning he awoke to her nudging him,"What is it Fiena?" she says,"I thought about what you said and I think I wanna leave Lazar's place."Buefard smiles largely and they discuss a plan and decide to move Davis,Don, and Carya to Redd's until Lazar leaves them alone,Fiena leaves to get Carya and Buefard convinces Davis and Don. Hours later they all go to Redd's and he agrees to help but unknown to them he purposely made Fiena share rooms with Buefard. After dinner Buefard asks Redd about the wierd feelings he's been having and Redd simply smiled and said"That there is love son but you must figure it out yourself." Buefard got ready for bed and couldn't stop thinking about what Redd had told him,Fiena was thinking too she had had a similar conversation with Davis and he gave her the same were cuddling and as she was on his furry chest she spoke up the most random thing,"What do you think about love?" Buefard's face fell and she blushed then he replied,"I think it's a beutiful thing, why do you ask?" she blushes then says,"No reason just something Davis told me to think about." he nods then he asks,"Umm Fiena if you love someone but you don't know if they love you back what do you do?" she thought then said,"I think you should at least say your feelings and see what response you get."he gulped then thought of his options"It's now or never...I'm going to do it now no regrets..."meanwhile Fiena's thinking too"Maybe I should tell him...yeah i should follow my own advice...here goes everything" then at the same time they blurted out "I LOVE YOU FIENA/BUEFARD!" they look stunned at each other than smile and nuzzle then lay down and both mutter "I love you" softly than they have the best sleep they have ever had. Deep inside they both are glad they went through the pains of their lives to find the strength to grasp happiness.
