Second Dog and Speckle Dog

We last left off where Second Dog and Speckle had just laid eyes upon one another at the beach. Between them, true love blossomed like a weed on a hot summer’s day. Together they sat on the beach, staring at each other until they could no longer see. “It’s dark!” Specks exclaimed, gripping Second Dog’s arm. “I know.” he replied, patting her arm. Together they stumbled through the driftwood back to the bathrooms on the edge of the beach, the kind that always smell bad and look even worse. Under the dimly flickering light they shared a kiss.

Specks, with anime tears glittering in her cold undead eyes, would watch Second Dog swim, amazed at the agility of him through the water like a knife you ran under hot water for a few seconds through butter. He would emerge, hair flipping and shaking himself off as if he was Taylor Swift. Together they would spend the nights on the beach, until people started questioning if they were just hobos or just visitors. Probably hobos, they never showered.

Soon after, they were seen on the beach every day, ignoring their responsibilities and “living life to the fullest”. And it was no surprise when Second Dog became pregnant.
