He had only been gone for a few hours and he already missed everyone. Especially Kurt.
He was also hungry, and thirsty, and he was starting to get really dirty.
It was cold too.
He just wanted to go back.
But he couldn't go back, because he didn't want to be a bother.
Even if he decided he didn't care about that and went home, he didn't know which way to go.
He was scared too. What if there were big dogs around here? Big mean dogs who would bullying him and bite him?
As if his worst fear was coming true, he suddenly spotted a large group of dogs coming his way.
Panicking, he ran and hid behind some trash cans, maybe they wouldn't see him here.
"Jeff, did you hear something?"
"No. Why? What'd you hear?"
"It was sort of like..." Blaine scooted further behind the trash cans. "Like that!"
"Oh, I definitely heard it that time."
"What do you think it is, Nick?"
"I don't know, what do you think, Wes?"
"Not sure..."
"Hey, Thad! Go check it out!"
"Why me? Why not send Logan to check it out?"
"I'm not going back there, what if it's a monster? Send David."
"You think it's a monster and you'd send me?"
"Well, you're the bravest."
"You really think I'm the bravest?"
"Hey, that's not a monster!"
"Luke's right!"
"It's a puppy!"
"Hi!" Jeff said as he raced behind the trash can, sticking his face right in Blaine's and wagging his tail.
"Hi..."
"I'm Jeff!"
"I'm Blaine."
"Nice to meet you, Blaine."
"What are you doing back here?" Nick asked.
"Hiding."
"From who?"
"You guys."
"Why would you hide from us?" Thad questioned.
"I was afraid you were going to be mean to me."
"Oh, no! We won't be mean to you." Wes said.
"Yeah! We're good dogs!" David added.
"So, do you live around here?" Luke asked.
"We live around here!" Jeff said.
"Do you want to live with us?" Nick asked, wagging his tail happily.
"Your human won't mind?"
"We don't have a human."
"We live outside!"
"But wait, is that... you have a collar, Blaine! That means you have a human!"
"He must be looking everywhere for you."
"We can help you find him if you'd like."
"I'm not looking for a human, I ran away."
"Ran away?"
"But why, Blaine?"
"He's getting married and this cat named Santana told me that they wouldn't have time for me anymore now that they were going to have married things to deal with... I didn't want to be in the way."
"But I'm sure they miss you a whole lot."
"No, they already have two other pets... they don't need me."
"Two other pets?"
"Why'd you look so sad when you said that, Blaine?" Jeff asked.
"Cause one of them is this kitty named Kurt, and I miss him the most."
"Well then you should go home, Blaine! I'm sure he misses you too!"
"No, Santana told me he was going to stop loving me."
"That's not true, Blaine." Nick said.
"He's right, I bet he's really sad right now."
"We'd be really sad if we ever lost one of our own." Wes added.
"You really think he misses me?"
"Of course we do!"
"You've got to go back to him, Blaine!"
"But, I don't know how to get back home."
"We'll help you!"
"You will?"
"Sure! We're your friends now!"
"Friends help each other!"
Blaine smiled. "Gee, thanks guys!"
"Come on! Let's help Blaine find his way home!" Nick shouted.
The group of puppies started racing off in the direction Blaine said he was pretty sure he came from, but after hours of searching, Jeff finally stopped.
"I'm tired." He whined, sitting down.
"We're all tired."
"There has to be an easier way to find Blaine's home."
"I know what we could do!" Nick said excitedly.
"What?"
"Well, Blaine has a collar! I'm sure it has his home address on it, if one of us could read it, then we could find his house a lot easier."
"Does anybody here know how to read?" Wes asked.
"Oh no!"
"What's wrong, Blaine?"
"My collar, it's gone!"
"Where did it go?"
"It must've fallen off while we were running!"
"But Kurt said that the collar was how they'd find me if I ever got lost... now that I don't have it, I'll never find my way home..." Blaine pouted, looking down sadly.
"What are we going to do, Wes?"
"I don't know, David... I don't know."
