[ he's seen a lot of terrible things in his weird, messed up life. watching gwen now manages to make itself on the list of awful things. this is all his fault, and he should've known better to think things would turn out okay. that he wouldn't hurt her. ]

[ it's not his job to comfort her anymore, is it. as badly as he wants to sit on the floor with her and hold her until she stops crying.
but god, he can't leave her like that. he can't. he drops to his knees next to her, puts a hesitant hand on her shoulder, tries not to cry so he doesn't take this from her. she has a reason to feel like this. he gets to go home to someone while she's gotten some of her plans for the future pulled from beneath her feet. ]
