Bax nearly winced at her tone. If he'd felt guilty, he felt increasingly so, the longer this interaction went on. He sighed quietly at her follow up statement. "I know, I know it's... inconvenient and difficult." He still felt like an incredible asshole, even now. It weighed on him more than she would ever be able to understand. The longer they went without seeing one another, the easier it got, but seeing her here, like this, clearly still angry with hi (which he did not blame her for, not in the slightest) everything flared up.

"I'm sorry," He'd said it before, and he'd say it again. Over and over and over until she either believed him or they managed to move past this, whichever unlikely end came first.
