The Life and Rants of Rhys Williams
"Is Gwen in, I have a mission that she will like, very torchwoody?" Andy said as he had a good look round the hallway Gwen and Rhys' new house. Rhys sniggered. "What?" Andy asked, he wasn't so fond of Rhys, to be honest he was just jealous; Rhys had the girl he dreamt of having. "Come in" Rhys said. "Hay Andy" Gwen smiled as she mixed the cake mix together. "Hay… Gwen" Andy mumbled. "Right I've had enough stop kicking!" Gwen shouted at her large bump. "So what do you want me for" Gwen asked. "Urm well it was something but, it doesn't matter now I'll get the police to do it" Andy said. "What was it?" Gwen asked. "A very dangerous mission which I would never let you do and I don't think Rhys would either" Andy said. "Do you want one of my cakes" Gwen smiled weakly. "Are you okay" Andy asked. Gwen nodded as she started to cry. "What's wrong darling?" Rhys asked as he came into the kitchen and hugged Gwen tightly. "Just stuff" Gwen said. "Just stuff eh?" Rhys said. Rhys sat Gwen down as he took Andy into the other room. "I just want to tell you something, Gwen's not like she was she's changed since the 456 happened, since Jack went away" Rhys said. "Has she become depressed?" Andy asked. "Yeah, she's on some antidepressants, to stop her doing what she did a few months ago" Rhys said. "What did she do?" Andy asked, leaning in closer, looking slightly disturbed. "she cut herself, overdosed on sleeping pills and drunk lots of alcohol, I really don't know how our baby is alive and well" Rhys said as he started to get upset. "Oh mate" Andy said as he hugged Rhys.
Rhys went into the bathroom after a long day at work, his eyes averted to some broken razors on the windowsill, somebody had taken the razor blades out of them, the only person it could have been was Gwen. He burst into the bedroom to see Gwen lying on the bed crying her eyes out, trying her hardest not to cut herself again, her body was shaking and her cut was bleeding heavily. Rhys took the razorblade from her hand as he held her; himself also crying. "Oh Gwen" Rhys cried, "He's gone, just vanished, gone" Gwen mumbled as she hiccupped.
Andy Walked back into the kitchen where Gwen was looking in a book, it had pictures, and writing in. "What you reading?" Andy asked. "This is my happy book, I know it sounds childish, but it's to help me, my counsellor said it will help me" Gwen explained. "Oh, okay…Is that the baby?" Andy asked. "Oh yeah, it was my first scan, god I cried so much, it was just after Ianto's funeral, the day after, I think I was just happy that something good had come out all of this, Rhys tries his best I know he does but I'm hard to please now" Gwen smiled. "What happened to you Gwen, I remember before torchwood, you were completely different" Andy asked. "Jack changed me, without him it doesn't feel-" Gwen said as she slammed her hands on the table. "I don't want to talk about this any more" Gwen said as she closed her happy book. "Oh my cakes will be ready" Gwen smiled changing the convocation.
"I'm going to leave you Gwen" Andy said. "Do you not want a cupcake?" Gwen asked. "No I'm fine" Andy said. "Oh okay, bye Andy" Gwen smiled. "Bye Gwen, take care" Andy said as he exited the house. "Do you want one of my cakes?" Gwen asked Rhys. "Sure darling" Rhys smiled. "Oh for fuck sake, bloody on hold again!" Rhys said as he put the phone down. "I don't know why I bloody bother even trying to pay by bloody bills, if they keep putting me on hold" Rhys slammed objects around in rage. "Stop ranting you!" Gwen scolded. "Yeah but that's why you married me, because I'm Rhys the rant" Rhys smiled as he put his arms around her waist. "Did I really?" Gwen said. "C'mon medication time for you" Rhys said. "Okay, okay" Gwen smiled.
