I miss you

by DesertBrix

Summary:

Your partner has a few things she’d like to say to you, or whatever’s still in there, at least.

WARNJNG THIS IS REAL SAD

Do you still remember me?

From before everything that happened, back when you were… you.

Do you remember all those sweet things you used to say, all those promises you made me, when you could understand words?

All those declarations of love and care and support.

That you’d be there with me forever.

That you would make me happy.

All those idle daydreams of our future together, of sweet, happy moments you hoped one day we’d get to cherish together.

I miss you.

I know that some part of you is still here, changed beyond recognition.

I don’t know if you can grasp anything more complicated than basic, doglike instincts.

If you can, I want you to know this.

If you’re still in there, I love you.

I miss you so much.

I wish I got to hold you to those promises, give you those memories you wanted to make.

I love you so much.

And I wish you could still say it back.

Like you used to.

Notes:

I read that one puppygirl greentext, and somebody in the comments pointed out that if it were actually to happen it would be fucking horrifying to have your loving partner permanently reduced to a dog mentally. so I got to thinking about that and then I got struck with inspiration to write this because it made me real sad to think about. Anyways I love my girlfriend and I sincerely hope I never have to say like any of these things to her also I hope this wasn’t too horrifically sad or offputting
