Wow.I'll need a few minutes.

Ah,it was great to be back,or so Damien thought.Being in the army wasn't such an easy job.After all,there was so much to lose.But to Damien,he'd be willing to risk it all.While at war,the only thing he yearned for was happiness.War could tear someone apart,leaving them in pieces.That was what occured to Damien.The bloodshed,the violence.It made him want to hide in a shell.But soon,something he never though would happen,did.He was going home.Bothered by this,he hesitantly went along.His parents never approved of this,yet he didn't care much about their opinions.
Damien tapped his foot impatiently.Lost in his thoughts,he didn't realize that he would see Riley again.Before,he would've been excited to see him,but now,it just made him cringe.Another pest.Just great.Nothing bothered him more than seeing Riley.He wasn't sure why,but he grew a slight hatred towards him. -
Riley was a little annoyed when a few minutes later, the nanny rolled down the window and started shouting out of it. "Mister Gilmore!" She called, it being the last name of the family. "Mister Gilmore, I am your ride home, so if you would kindly come to the car?" Riley growled. He wasn't sure who she was talking to, but it must be an uncle or something if they had the same last name.
Anyway, he was tired, and shot her a glare to quiet her down. She huffed, and whisper-yelled at him. "You be polite, Riley, and he'll be polite to you. No. Biting. Understood?" Riley sighed, but nodded in agreement. -
Damien's eyes shot towards the car.He let out a little groan,and started towards the car.Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad.Maybe he could loosen up a bit.As he got closer to the car,he could see someone in the car.It was Riley."Please refer to me by my first name,if you may." He said.Hesitantly,he opened the car door,and slid into the seat beside Riley.His focus was on Riley.I guess the pest is still here.Hopefully,he won't irritate me.
-
Riley watched the person who got into the car carefully. They seemed so, so familiar. At first, he thought it was only a distant family member who happened to look a lot like Damien and his dad, but then everything started clicking. The Gilmores were talking about Damien that morning, and now, this guy they were picking up from the airport- It was Damien!
In a second, the old hybrid felt all of his puppy-like excitement rush back to him. He hadn't seen his beloved owner in years, and even if the last time he saw him they weren't the best of friends, he still thought that maybe Damien had come back just for him! His thick black tail started thumping against the seat, and his face broke out into a grin. "You're back!" He exclaimed, staring at Damien with the upmost admiration. -
Damien's eyes narrowed,showing uniterest."Could you be anymore louder?" He grumbled.His hopes were crushed.Riley was still hyper,as before.His eyes were still on Riley,making sure he wouldn't do anything else.He couldn't blame him.He did abandon him for years,which could really destroy someone.His expression softened,before he let out a soft sigh."Hello Riley." He said,with an undisguised excitement.
-
For a moment, Riley's grin began to fade, and the thump of his tail slowed. With a single sentence, his owner really did manage to obliterate his dreams. Damien seemed angry with him for getting so excited, and he didn't want him to leave again, so he tried to calm down. "Sorry..." He whimpered. "Are you coming home?"
-
Damien noticed the sudden change."I apologize if I may have made you uncomfortable.And yes,I am coming home." He said,and patted Riley's head.Just seeing the sadness that Riley showed,it made his heart ache.His beloved pet just yearned to be with him,yet he couldn't appreciate this.No wonder why he was abandoned by his comrades in war.They feared him.Wanting to change the subject,"How have you been?" He said,and smiled.
-
It didn't take long for Riley to start grinning again, especially when Damien gave him a pat on the head and even a smile. "I'm good!" He said, tail going at an unimaginable speed. The nanny, driving, checked in the rearview mirror at the hybrid, raising an eyebrow at his sudden boost in energy.
"Ridiculous," she huffed. "I can hardly get him out of bed and all you had to do was sit next to him. How unfair." -
"That's because we have a strong bond." Damien said,and chuckled.Maybe he could get used to Riley's enthusiasm.He wrapped an arm around him,and pulled him close."I'm sorry for being gone for so long." He said.It was his fault for leaving,and it didn't just effect him,but it effected Riley more than it did to him.
-
All at once, Riley felt like forgiving Damien for never calling, never writing, and even leaving in the first place. After all, he was as loyal as any dog, and this was no exception. He hugged his owner with both arms, squeezing around his chest. "It's okay," he said. The nanny rolled her eyes, but kept driving.
-
Damien kissed Riley's forehead,and smiled.He couldn't wait to get home.He couldn't wait to see his parents.He had missed it all.Back then,he thought joining the army would be easy,but no,he was wrong.Here he was now,with his beloved pet.The one who would wait for him everyday.Not only did he consider Riley a pet,he felt more than that.
-
Riley couldn't get the smile off of his face the whole way home, nor could he stop hugging Damien. He decided to just reat his head against the other's shoulder, so that he wouldn't have to stop hugging him. When they pulled up to the large house, and the car parked, Riley was the first one out of the car.
It was easy to forget, but one of Riley's original purposes in the family was as a guard dog. When he became old enough, it was his job to keep an eye out for anybody suspicious or to scare away any would-be robbers. As soon as he was out of the car, he went behind it, gazing with a glare at the closing entry gates to make sure no one snuck in before they shut. -
Damien exited the car,and glanced at Riley.A smile spread across his face.He couldn't help it because he knew how much Riley cared about him.Exhausted,Damien went towards the house,and entered."I'm home." He shouted,waiting to be greeted by his parents.He prayed that they wouldn't scold him.
-
Riley waited until he heard the gates shut all of the way before deciding that his family was safe from harm. By the time he turned back around, both Damien and the nanny were back inside. He hurried up to the house, and just as he opened up the door, he saw Miss Gilmore rushing down the stairs and glaring at her some. "Damien Gilmore!" She shouted, pointing an accusing finger at him. "You do not seriously expect to be welcomed back into this house, returning out of the blue like this!"
