Such thing as a Happy Ever After?

Like I'm gonna lose you

This chapter was inspired by Hayley Marshall from the show called The Originals. 

This is set 1 week after the fire 

Cormac's POV:

        I still can't believe what had happened and that Andrew is dead. They found the guy that started the explosion and he is dead I don't really know much about it. When I saw Meredith on the ground in the fire I felt terrified to lose her. Now I know exactly what I was feeling about her, I'm in love with her. I can't believe it took almost losing her to figure it out but I am. Right now I'm going to her house not to tell her but to comfort her over losing Andrew. Even though she might not be in love with him, I could tell she loved him and cared for him. We might not have been friends when all this happened but I'm putting that aside because she needs someone right now. I finally reach the door and knock.

Meredith's POV:

       I feel numb like the days are passing by without me. I haven't cried or anything and honestly this feels like it might kill me. Ben gave me Andrew's notebook he found with his body. I haven't read it and honestly I don't think I can bring myself too. I looked at my ring on my finger and instantly felt angry at myself. I was in love with another man while my fiancee died. What if he knew? How would he react? Would he have died hating me or loving me? How does his sister feel about this? All these thoughts pass through me that I didn't even hear the doorbell. Maggie took the kids out today to give me space to grieve and help the kids grieve because they loved Andrew. I walk out of my bedroom then go downstairs and I open the door to see Cormac standing there.

Cormac's POV:

         I see Meredith and she was wearing a white shirt with some black shorts and has a cut on her head where her head was hit and I'm pretty sure she has a concussion. I looked in her eyes and all I saw was pain. " Can I come in?" I asked. " I guess." she says opening the door so I can come in. She closes the door and walks to the couch and sits down and I sit next to her. " Are you ok?" I ask. " I'm fine" she says looking past me. She honestly looks like a ghost. " No you're not." I say. " How would you know you don't even know me?" she says clearly upset. " I know enough." " Well good for you is that all you're here for?" she says mad. " Meredith from what I can tell you look like you haven't even cried, you look normal and I can see past that, you're clearly not fine." I say. She gets up and walks to the door and opens it. " You can leave now if thats all you have to say." she says. I get up and walk over to her " No I'm not leaving you here like this." I say. " LEAVE CORMAC!" she yells. " No I'm not leaving until you tell the truth" I say. She slams the door and comes up to me and pushes me on m chest. I grab her hands and she instantly starts crying on my chest. " He died loving me while I'm in love with you." " I know" I say. " I'm just guilty" she says. I just held her while she cried and honestly I felt for her, I mean losing the person you love hurts like hell. But going through that twice I can't even imagine what that must feel like. She pulls away and goes to the couch and lays down and falls asleep. She is exhausted from all the crying I could tell. I get a blanket and pull it over her, kissed her forehead and watched her sleep.

This is the end of this chapter let me know what you think :)
