A shooting star crossed the night sky and Gwen cuddled Anwen closer to her chest, making sure the blanket was wrapped around her securely. "He's giving us a sign," she said.
Anwen whined softly, calming down when Gwen's hand rubbed her back. "Don't cry," she said and bit back tears herself. "He's fine."
Like her mother, Anwen wasn't too keen on sleeping tonight, so Gwen had decided to take her for a walk.
Another shooting star. Gwen smiled. "He promised he would look out for us."
A sob caught in her throat when she whispered, "Ianto always keeps his promises."
