"Hello Sam.", my voice was quiet, and tears started to fill his eyes as I kneeled down to the grave that stood there. My knees touched the wet grass and soaked my pants. I couldn't care less. My hand reached out and traced the cold stone underneath my soft fingers.
"How are you?", I sniffed and shook my head. "A dumb question, of course." I sighed, and my tears dropped to the ground. "It's your birthday today, buddy.", I croaked and a sob escaped my throat. "You'd turn ten today, you know that?"
I wiped my face and massaged my face. "I miss you, you know, we both do. You were everything for me, and I loved you more than you ever could love me.", I sob ripped through my body and I clutched the small stone ball, where "REST IN PEACE! WE WILL KEEP YOU CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS" was written on.
"People were right when they said that you could never love someone as much as you can miss them.", I again wiped my eyes and took my glasses off my face to wipe the tears off them so that I could see again.
Suddenly, a felt a cold, clawed hand touch my clothed shoulder, and I slowly turned my head, only to look in beautiful, golden, reptilian eyes. "Grievous!", I sobbed. A sad smile spread across my face, and I slowly turned my back towards the grave of my dearest Golden Retriever, to face my boyfriend, who immediately grabbed my shoulders and pulled me into a hug.
"Are you alright, Michelle?", he asked in his heavily accented voice and pressed his mouthpiece against my forehead in a version of a kiss. " "Yeah.", I whispered, feeling how more of the salty liquid ran down my face. I felt the tip of his claws wipe them away.
"Let's go home.", he said and hoisted me up. I just nodded, and let more tears fall, not caring about wetting my glasses. "He would have been ten today, Grievous. I miss him so much." He began walking while one of his hands rubbed my back.
"I know.", he murmured back. "And I know, that Sam misses you too, my love."

Today is the birthday of my Golden Retriever Sam, who died half a year ago. I loved this dog with all my beings and today is one of the saddest days of my life. It tore me apart as I stood by his grave today, and lit a candle to his honor. This One-Shot helped me a little bit. I hoped you liked it.
Rest In Peace, Sam.
