Sun rise, sun set. For most people every day but Danny stood in the rain starring at the freshly dug grave, he felt empty like his life. Melissa was an amazing woman who had been through so much that her heart literally broke. She had died in his bed in his arms.
Reaching down he placed a single white rose on the fresh soil. They had been together for a short while but they were so comfortable and had a lot in common, she understood him and supported his career. Digging away a small amount of soil he took the tiny box from his pocket opening it he took the small diamond ring from inside.
He had planned a surprise get away that weekend, a romantic meal, Melissa deserved so much more and he was going to make sure she got that. But that wasn't meant to be, he was a bad luck charm destined to be alone.
Standing he wiped away the stray tears swallowing the lump in his throat he turned. Steve walked towards him embracing him briefly, he fully understood loss he wasn't going to push but he was going to be there when Danny was ready.
