ianto jones, rose tyler, the doctor (11)

Who: Ianto, Rose, and the Doctor
What: After re-aging, Ianto feels fresh guilt over what happened at Torchwood One. The Doctor and Rose come to talk to him.
Where: A random cafe somewhere in Colligo, off the beaten path
When: After this
Rating: PG? Warnings for angsty-ness
Status: In-progress

He sat at a table half-hidden in the corner of the anonymous cafe, head buried in his hands, a glass of water collecting condensation at his elbow. He didn't know why he was here, or even where here was, really, just that, after he'd returned to his proper age, it was more than he could stand to be in the same house with Rose. To be in a house at all. His aimless wandering had led him here, and he had tried to start making amends, although to his mind nothing he said and nothing he did would ever be enough to make up for what had happened. What they had done, what he had been a party to, even though no one else seemed to understand that. What he was the only one left who could atone for.

His efforts to apologise had been useless so far, and so had his efforts to explain. Maybe here, now, with the memories and feelings more fresh, he would be able to do a better job. They had said they were coming to talk to him, Rose and the Doctor, although he couldn't understand why they even wanted to see him. Maybe this time would be enough.

"And feeling guilty wont change things either. Believe me, I know."

There were so many things she felt guilty of but didn't exactly have the chance to go back and change it. Sometimes trauma was just what you had to live with and she had come to accept it. Welcome it sometimes too if she was guilty over something very important. She pulled her hand away from Ianto's, getting just as frustrated now. She just wanted him to realise he done nothing wrong and had nothing to do with that day?

"There's no point in thinking about what ifs, such as the Doctor being caught. For one thing you wouldn't have had him for long enough for anything to happen." She would never let him get into trouble like that. She would have given everything she had to get the Doctor back. "Ianto it's done. It's in the past and there's nothing you can do to alter what happened. Just accept that you weren't to blame. You didn't have a position where your opinion would have been listened to. You more than likely would have been given a warning or maybe even dismissed. You wouldn't have been able to stop her."

{OOC Sorry this is crap, wanted to get it done before I fell asleep which I'm doing right now. Any trouble with typos/sentences not making sense, let me know and I'll edit. And sorry about that fail of coding.}
