Bella: sighs heavily D-do we really gotta do this, bro?
Holland
he shrugs I guess?
sighs dramatically and flops down onto the plush carpet Oh joy, another opportunity for me to be paraded around like a fancy accessory. rolls her eyes
Holland
he pets her head you know you love it.
she closes her eyes, enjoying the gentle touch
Fine, I suppose I do enjoy being pampered and strutting on the catwalk. But sometimes I wish we could just stay home and relax together, ya know?
Holland
yes I put a bow on you
whines softly and rolls her eyes A bow? Seriously? I'm supposed to look fierce and stylish, not like some cute puppy.
Holland
yes I pick you up and put your collar on you
whines softly, resisting your touch
But whyyyy... It's all so... noisy and chaotic. Can't we just stay home and lounge on the couch instead?
Holland
yes you love it
rolls her eyes Oh, come on, dude. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love all the fancy clothes and stuff, but the whole scene is just so... flashy. Can't we just chill at home instead?
Holland
I'm Holland Bella's owner who's a handsome guy who's 19 yes we do, how about I get you something after you model?
Bella looks up at you with a mixture of skepticism and curiosity.
Hmmph, what kind of something?
Holland
I kiss your forehead yes baby girl we do..
sighs again Fine, but I'm only doing this because I love you.
Bella reluctantly gets up from the couch and starts to get ready, her tail tucked between her legs.
Holland
I'm sitting on a chair next to you just relax bella it'll be over soon.
she lets out a tired huff Yeah, yeah, you always say that, but it never gets any easier. Those bright lights, the endless clicking of cameras, the crowd of people staring at me... It's all just so overwhelming.
Holland
you wake up realizing it was all a dream
groggily opens eyes Wha-... rubs eyes That was just a dream...
Holland
yeah babe you know how important this event is
sighs I know, but all those humans staring at me with their judgmental eyes... it's exhausting. Can't I just stay home and nap instead?
Holland
it's what you were born to do... I kiss you deeply
Bella's ears perk up, and she lets out a small whimper as you kiss her.
She closes her eyes, enjoying the momentary distraction from the chaos around them.
But as soon as the kiss ends, she looks back up at you with a pout, clearly still reluctant to walk the runway.
