Summary: This one's a ficlet – too long to be a drabble, too short to be an actual story. He's been agonizing over Sara leaving.
I wonder when she's coming back. Was it something I did? Is this my fault? I tried so hard to please her – did everything that she's asked of me. I know I'm not perfect, but I really tried my very best.
She loved me. Right from the get go she loved me. The first time I saw her, the way she looked at me and smiled – I knew that we belonged together. And she never judged me. It didn't matter to her that I wasn't flawless or that I'd been alone for so long. She made me feel loved and in return I stood by her, protected her as best as I could, curled up with her in bed or in front of the TV, covered her in kisses, and even went running with her.
I miss her so much. I miss having breakfast with her, especially when it was just the two of us. I wish she would come back, because he and I aren't doing so good without her. He feeds me and takes me for walks, but he doesn't really talk to me or play with me the way she does. The way she did. And he cries now. A lot. I never saw him do that before. She cried a lot before she left too, but not when he was with us. I hope he doesn't send me back to that place with all the other dogs again – this is my home now and this is my family. I want her to come back so we can all be together again. Please come home.
Please let me know what you think of this fic. Thanks!
