Title: Unwanted
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Gwen
Rating: PG
Challenge: 458 - Console at tw100
Notes: Gwen has made a terrible mistake

Gwen heard the door click shut behind her, feeling wretched. She'd wanted to help so badly, even if it had taken arm twisting from Andy to get her interested in the first place.

Jonah was alive. She'd thought that was all that mattered. It didn't matter what he'd been through or how he looked; any mother would see past all that.

Instead, what kind of consolation had she brought to their doorstep? A mother whose hopes had been utterly crushed, knowing her son was damaged beyond repair, never able to come home. She'd be better off thinking he was dead.

Maybe Gwen will learn from this experience.
