Coming Home(Krystal)

James sighed and was finally enjoying himself more. Zach was napping in his play pen now. Buddy had came into the room and was wagging his tail like he was proud of doing something. He was covered in toilet paper and globs of shampoo. He had been playing in the bathroom.

Max looked at Buddy and frowned. "You need a bath." he said.

Buddy felt bad now. He growled softly as if asking, am I in trouble. James kept his arm around Britney and kissed her cheek again.

He sighed and nodded. "But you look funny, Buddy. Let's go give you a nice bath to clean you up so you can look nice for Miley." he said. Britney giggled and leaned into his arms

James held Britney even closer. He was happy. Buddy whinnied and knew Miley was still mad at him for biting at a puppy. He went outside to the pool and knocked it over.

Miley lifted her head and looked at Buddy. Max kissed Krystal's head. "Krystal, I need to go give Buddy a bath." he said. Britney smiled and snuggled into him

Buddy whinnied. He was waiting in the pool for his bath. Krystal moved and curled up with her head on a pillow. She shivered a little wanting a blanket. James found a blanket and wrapped it around them both. Winter was on it's way now.

Max got up and went outside. He took the hose and smiled at Buddy. "Lets get you cleaned up." he said.

Buddy barked. He was ready for a bath.

He started to gently spray the water on Buddy's coat

Buddy stood still. He knew if Max saw the damage in the bathroom he would get locked in the shed again tonight.

He made sure that all the stuff was off him and he continue to gently spray his coat

Buddy shock the water from his coat and just stayed in the line with the spray. He liked having a bath more than Miley did.

He smiled and laughted quietly. "We are almost done, buddy." he said

Buddy knew he would be left outside for a while if the mess was that big.

He turned off the hose once Max was done cleaning Buddy.

Buddy shock himself dry but went over to the shed and laid inside of it. He knew this was where he slept when he was in trouble.

Max sighed and went inside. He went back to Krystal and kissed his forehead.

Krystal woke ane looked at her. "Baby, how bad is the bathroom?" she asked. She wanted to sleep more. James had fallen asleep holding Britney.

Max sighed. "Really bad. He made a mess." he said. Britney fell asleep

"I guess Miley is never going to get a chance to fogive him. Lock him in the shed," she said. She had a blanket over her. She had been trying to stay warm while she slept. She knew winter was almost here.

"After I take care of him, I'll take you to bed." he said. Max went back outside and locked the shed. He went back inside and went back to Krystal

Krystal was freezing. She knew tonight was the first night of winter. James was bundled up in his bed already. He had taken Britney to his room with him. Krystal looked at Max. "I guess tonihgt we'll need all the blankets on our bed," she said.

Max nodded and picked her up. He carried her to their bedroom and gently laid her down in the bed. He laid down next to her and pulled the blankets over them

She snuggled against him even though her chest hurt and went to sleep. She needed her sleep and her warmth.
