March 15 Sitting in the giant hall, which was the public library, Tristan sat there studying for an upcoming exam he had. The complete silence and the isolation wasn't exactly Tristan's favorite place to be and to add books to the situation even made it worse. Tristan sat at a small round table by himself, staring down at the book, Electrical Currents. The book just had a bunch of gibberish science lingo that Tristan really never bothered to understand. He knew what a current was, but to know the physics behind it seemed a bit pointless to him. So Tristan sat there and repeatedly tapped his pencil against the desk. Unaware of the distraction he was making with his pencil, a woman who was working at the desk a few feet to the right, snapped at him about if he could stop. Tristan gave her a dirty look and continued to tap the pencil on the desk. Until his desk started to vibrate and rumbling noise could be heard through the whole library. Picking up the phone quickly, Tristan whispered into the ear piece, "Hello?" The voice on the other end was his mother, "Tristan, I hope you remembered to pick up Ms. Cuddles from the vet." Oh shit. Tristan forgot that he was suppose to pick up his mother's small dog. "Uh, yeah of course I remember. I'm on my way right now." Tristan closed his phone and quickly packed up his things. Getting a cab to take him to the veterinarian, Tristan walked into the building. The smell was a bit odd. It was as if someone tried to cover up the strong smell of all the different animals with air freshener. Well, it only made things worse in Tristan's opinion. Standing at the empty receptionist desk, Tristan clicked the tiny silver bell.

Emma was having another busy day at the surgery, so many sick animals, it seemed a shame, yet at the same time it was what kept Emma in a job. She loved working with animals, and being able to heal them made her day. What she didn't like about her job was when she had to put animals to sleep, because they were in a lot of pain and there was nothing more she could do for them.
However, that didn't have to happen too often, she was normally able to heal all the animals which came into her surgery, and most of the times they were just there for their yearly booster injection or something else minimalist.
Emma had just finished putting one of the smaller animals into their carry cage for their owner to collect when she heard the bell being hit from the reception desk. She really would have to see about getting herself a receptionist, but so far she'd managed without one, as it was just a small veterinary surgery.
She came out of the back room and walked into the reception area, and almost stopped in her tracks when she was met with a rather handsome young man. She shook her head slightly, and nipped herself back into reality. Giving him a bright smile, she said in her strong English accent, "Good afternoon, how may I help you? I'm terribly sorry for keeping you waiting, I really ought to see about a receptionist now I think" she said greeting the handsome guy.

A young woman came into view. Tristan was taken a back by how attractive the girl was. In a daze, the woman said, "Good afternoon, how may I help you? I'm terribly sorry for keeping you waiting, I really ought to see about a receptionist now I think"
Coming out of the daze, Tristan mumbled, "Um yeah. I'm here to pick up Ms. Cuddles." It took him a few seconds to process what he had just said. He got embarrassed with the thought that the young woman was laughing at him for naming his dog Ms. Cuddles. "It's my mom's dog. I'm just here to pick it up," he smiled. He wanted to justify to her that it wasn't his dog so he wouldn't seem like such a sissy.

Emma was a little embarrassed at the way she had obviously stared at the guy, she hoped it hadn't been too embarrassing for him. However, she continued to smile at him as he began to talk, saying he was there to pick up Ms. Cuddles. Emma thought nothing of it, as she looked in her computer for the correct pet, "Ah, Mrs Matthews brought her in, so you must be her son?!" Emma said in exclamation and continuing to smile at him. He then went on to explain that the dog was his mother's dog.
She figured he was embarrassed about asking for a dog by the name of Ms. Cuddles. It wouldn't have bothered Emma, the names of animals she had come across in her time as a veterinary doctor was quite remarkable.
"I remember your mother bringing the dog in" Emma said, "Please take a seat, I wont be long" she added, as she went into the kennel area of the surgery and located Ms. Cuddles, the sweetest little dog she'd ever treated in a long time. Five minutes later she was back out at the reception area with Ms. Cuddles.
"There you go" she said smiling, "As good as new" and then for no real reason what so ever, she decided to introduce herself, "Emma Woods, pleased to meet you, you're actually my last client for the day, could take her for a walk, make sure everything is fine?" Emma said, just to make sure the dog would not have a relapse.
