Thank you for helping me with my story.

Gal's POV
I couldn't believe that Peter is really gone.

I was looking forward to him becoming a part of the family again. He was like a brother to me, I saw him grow up and despite everything... I still loved him.

"You okay?" Tom asked me.

I shook my head 'no'

"He could've had a great future with us now that he's back." I told him.

It's been a few hours after Tom and the other men buried Peter and right now Y/n, Katie and Andrea are busy attending to other survivors in need of assistance. It's probably better for them to get busy, especially for y/n since she's the most affected person in all of this.

"How are the others coming along?" I asked Tom as he sits on the chair near the bed.

"They're pretty grateful that we saved them. Most of then regained their strength back almost immediately. Laughter and smiles returned, peacefulness returned as well." He said smiling.

After checking up on Shawn who's adorably sleeping on the bed, I sat down on the chair next to him.

"I'm glad you weren't hurt." I told him, as I reach for his hand.

"Hey, uhhh I need to tell you something before you go back to help the rest." I told him before he could stand and leave.

"Yeah, sure. What is it?" He asked. Now giving me his full attention.

I exhaled deeply before looking at Tom in the eyes.

"I want this to work... I want us to work." I told him.

"I want to have a happy family where our son could grow. He needs his parents together... not just him, I need you. You've been nothing but understanding, yet you never fail to remind me of my boundaries. You comfort me and showed me nothing but kindness, and I really did loved you when we were together, and I'm willing to give it another shot not just for Shawn, but for us." I added while still looking in his eyes.

His silence made me nervous, what if I fucked things up even more? What happens then?

Tom's POV

I couldn't believe what I've just heard. I thought my feelings for her would never get reciprocated but now everything's finally coming together.

"I promise to keep you and our son safe at all times. We'll make a happy family for our son together... with our friends. We will make this work." I finally said after a long silence.

Immediately hugging Gal, I can feel her crying in my shoulder, we can finally live a better life without chasing for another.

"Thank you, you won't regret giving me a chance." She cried.

I gave her a bright smile after breaking our hug. Wiping her tears away, I kissed her temple.

"Don't cry love. Let's start a new." I told her hugging her once again.
