Who Let the Dogs Out? Date: August 17, 2000 Characters: Tristan and Ginny Location: Dog Park in London Public/Private: Private Summary: Tristan takes his best friend, Lexan, out for a run/walk and runs into Ginny. Status: Incomplete
Tristan slowed his pace to a walk, his body pumping with adrenaline and blood as he started a walk after a long spring through the park. Though it was a dog park, he often enjoyed taking a run through it, especially since Lexan, his labrador retriever adored doing the very same thing. It was something of a tradition between them. Whenever Tristan was suited in sneakers and form fitting work out clothes, Lexan was already circling at his feet knowing that they were going on a run. It was what little he could do these days with the dog he grew up with. As much as he wished he had more time with him, he often was out with his father, walking with him through the many meetings and press conferences the public demanded of the Prime Minister.
As Lexan barked and slowed down at a nearby field, Tristan crouched down to him, giving him a gentle scratch in the head. "Want to cool down and run for a bit by yourself, boy?" he asked, as Lexan got excited when Tristan put his hand on the collar to discard the leash. Lexan could only bark happily and run towards the field, soon chasing a butterfly as Tristan leaned on the bench watching his best friend enjoying a freedom he wished he had.
