Very Short Story
Write about whatever you want. No swearing. I only made it up to 50 words because I don't know how to make a story that short so I want to see what you can do.
My Protector
Sleeping in guest bedroom due to flu. My ever-faithful Maltese dog, Casey, on the bed with me, sensing I am sick. Husband comes in dark to check on me. Casey lays his small 7-pound body across me, growling ferociously, warning intruder stay away or suffer a deadly attack.
