Characters: Owen, Diane
Rating: G
Spoilers: Out of Time
Summary: Sometimes loving someone isn’t enough.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: For the prompt ‘Let Her Go’, one of the prompts I didn’t get around to using for tw100’s challenge 292: Billboard Hot 100 last year. I’ve dug them out again to supplement the prompts I got from my f-list, just because there are still loads I wanted to use.
Owen had only known her a few days, but he’d fallen head over heels for Diane. She was a remarkable woman, especially considering the time she was from, where women were still expected to be dutiful wives and homemakers.
She was different. Her self-confidence, independence and pioneering spirit drew him like a moth to a flame; it was inevitable that he’d get burned.
He loved her, and though she said she felt the same, it wasn’t enough to make her stay.
Despite begging and pleading, even offering to go with her, he had no choice but to let her go.
The End

Thank you.
