'It's a long story, I was in the pound..." he started to say.
~Flashback~
Romeo sat in his little cage, hoping that someday a nice person would adopt him. His cell like house was dark gray with fading paint, old kibble, and dirty water that the insects drank more out of. Romeo looked at his 'house' when suddenly a tall, dark brown man with light stubble on his face, looked at Romeo, who back then was "Spike" and said, "I want you." as he crouched down to get a better look at Romeo. One of the workers said, "OK, nice choice." and rolled their eyes, since they are paid to say that. The guy then opened the cage and led Spike out. Spike's/Romeo's new owner got him, paid for him and brought him to his condo.
After a couple of weeks, the owner found a great girlfriend that Spike also liked, but the owner was bad at purposing. When they went on a date, they went to the dog park with Spike, and Spike (before they left) had got the ring and it's box, and he hid it in his owner's pockets. When they were there, They let Romeo walk around. After a couple of hours, Romeo came back and laid down to hear when would be a great time to show the ring (AKA purpose for his dumb owner). "Well, I do live on a ranch that has tons of animals, and my favorite is my kitty, Sissie. What do you live in?" said the girl. The owner said he lived in a two-story condo with Spike and that he loved ranches, but he could never afford one. The guy then said, "Well, Jennie, um... I've been wanting to do this but uh, I uh, never got the..." and before he finished, Spike held out the ring to the girl and the man answered, "Jennie, will you marry me?" and she of course answered yes, and the man renamed Spike to Romeo, and they sold the condo and moved to the ranch which had more room for Romeo.
~back to present~
"And that's how I ended up on a farm. By the way, we're close to the secret spot." said Romeo, and sure enough, there was a small shack behind the house which had no apparent opening, but when they got close, you could see a small opening from the front.
OOC: Whenever I do, "Flashback" i'm playing the flashback as if it's happening right now, but it's not. I just rp the flashback.
