I have no idea how long I'll be able to keep up this 'Daily Drabble' spree I've got going, but I'm going to see how long I last. At least I already have tomorrow's written.

Disclaimer: I don't own Beyblade.

Enjoy!

Puppy Love

Max knew how important feeling secure was to Mariam. She'd spoken to him a few times this week about ways they could insure they were safe if the security system they'd installed upon moving in went awry. He knew that she knew, as well as he did, that it was an unlikely occurrence, but, with their first baby on the way, they were both more anxious than usual.

Max was proud of his solution, though. After a few phone calls he'd managed to obtain two house trained, Rottweiler puppies. He would have preferred to raise them from the ground up himself, but, given the circumstances, there was no way he'd have time to house train them – it wasn't as if he was going to make Mariam run around after them, either. No, this solution was just fine.

He finished adjusting a bow around each of the puppies' necks just as he heard his wife slam the front door shut as she returned home. The puppies' ears perked up instantly, their foreheads wrinkling.

Mariam walked into the kitchen, laden with shopping bags. Immediately, the new guards scampered over to her, nipping at her heels and yapping excitedly.

"Max," Mariam said as she dropped her shopping on the island, "where did these two come from and why are they here?"

"Security." he stated plainly, ignoring the first question he figured was rhetorical.

"So I can get attached then?" the mother-to-be asked, petting the puppy with the green bow.

Max nodded happily, scratching the blue-clad puppy behind the ears.

"Thanks, Maxie."

She loved how incredibly understanding he was. He knew she wasn't usually so concerned about these things and that it would pass in time, but he still took it upon himself to fix the problem.

Mariam threw her arms around Max's neck and kissed him fully on the lips.

A/N: Half of these end in Max and Mariam kissing. Should I do something about that? Maybe, maybe not. Some of these sentences are long and rambling, but I can't be troubled to go back and edit them. Sorry.

There's a new poll on my profile that pertains to these drabbles. If you want to have a say in what types of drabbles you'll see from me, make sure you vote! Thanks ahead of time!
