"I promise." Was there much weight to that promise when at this very moment he could not help but envision his parents and how he'd kill them? How he'd try to inflict even a fraction of the suffering they had caused him and his brother? That their research was apparently still causing others now?
Probably not. But he looked at the words Sam had written and it made him smile. Made him happy that Sam had touched him again, of his own volition. He looked at him and they were so close now. How could he keep from asking Sam to hold him? "Thanks for meeting me."
"The meeting you threatened me into, yes." And no, he wasn't going to let Barty off the hook on that one either. "Send William somewhere safe and if you stay in Cardiff, you behave and you avoid Torchwood." With a sigh, he got up and gave Barty a final look, guilt and fear sinking into his stomach. This was so stupid. Too dangerous. What was he doing?
"Be good." And with that, he left him to it, hoping that something good could come from this.
