[That laugh nearly kills him. It's maybe the worst time for it but he can't stop the tears from welling up in the corners of his eyes or the wet sounding sigh that comes from him. Because he fucked up, he fucked really badly and he's so sorry, Mako. He should've known better because he knew her like the back of his own hand, better than his hand really, and he should have known.
Should've but he didn't and he walked and if she doesn't take him back, doesn't let him be a part of this, fuck. He'd understand but it still feels like a knife in his chest anyway.
Raleigh sniffs as subtly as he can and reaches up to wipe at his eyes.]
I'm so sorry. I wouldn't have-- I'm glad you changed your mind.
pain :c
