The audacity! That was the only thought churning in Amelia’s mind as she stared at the fluffy, four-legged intruder currently sprawled across her favorite armchair. Leo, her roommate, had finally caved to his incessant yearning for a Golden Retriever. He'd promised, *promised*, no pets. Now, here it was.

She planted her hands on her hips, the sudden movement causing the muscles in her back to tense. "Leo," she said, her voice tight, "We had an agreement."

He just grinned, stroking the dog's head. "He needs a name. How about... Captain?"

Amelia took a deep breath, fighting the urge to stomp her foot. Captain? It felt like he was deliberately provoking her.
