Click-clack.
The noise of claw on tile was deafening to my sleep-sensitized ears as I made my way through the darkened kitchen. At the foot of the stairway I could see the dim outline of my other dog, Alabast. One of the dogs were always accompanying me on my nighttime food forays.
I stepped over little Jasper, intent on the fridge on the other side of the room. Still he followed me. I couldn't see him---he was tiny and black, a little Yorkie mutt---but I knew he was there. Weighted down with an assortment of grocieries, I was making my way back towards the stairs when Alabast growled, deep in his throat. A growl of fear and warning.
I stopped. The clicking stopped. Still he growled at me; what I could see of his face was turned in my direction.
And then the moon broke through the clouds and I caught the shadowy form of little Jasper shivering against the larger dog. His fearful little eyes turned up towards me.
They werent staring at me. They were staring just behind me.
