Unconditional Love (Wanda Maximoff X Fem Reader GiP)

Chapter 17

I couldn't leave you all like that for too long. I'm not that evil

Y/N pov

I was on duty with John when we got called to the school. My heart was pounding in my chest when I drove the car as fast as it could go. I didn't bother waiting for John to put his seatbelt on because I just wanted to make sure that Wanda was safe. I skidded to a halt and jumped out of the car to find someone being pulled out of the building on a stretcher. I ran over as soon as I recognised her clothes and hair. 

"Wanda!" I shouted as I sprinted to the ambulance they were loading her into. "Where are you taking her?" I asked the EMT's urgently. 

"To Downtown Med." They told me as I nodded and raced to my car ignoring John and leaving him behind as I followed the ambulance. I heard my phone ring and noticed Roger's number. 

"Why did you just leave the scene?" He asked me angrily. 

"Wanda was shot." I told him shortly as I followed the ambulance she was in.

"What?" He asked me shocked. 

"My wife was shot. She is being rushed in to hospital right now as we speak." I said as I hung up. I came to a halt, parking the car and taking my phone before following Wanda inside. As soon as we reached the double doors a nurse stopped me. "That's my wife. I need to be with her." I told her sternly when I was really breaking inside. I never thought I would ever feel this feeling again. 

"I'm sorry ma'am, but please let them work. We will inform you when she is in recovery." She said as I just nodded. I called Pietro and her parents as well as Nat and Maria.

"Hey, is she ok?" Pietro asked as he walked in with Carol behind him.

"I don't know. No one has came and told me anything." I said as I paced the floor as her parents came and joined. "I thought we were past her being in danger. Is she not meant to be safe and happy." I asked them as Pietro pulled me in for a hug. 

"I wish I knew why this happened Y/N." Pietro said as he held me at arms length. "But it did. You need to be strong for her." I just nodded as we waited for what felt like forever. 

"Maybe if I didn't come back to New York she would be safe." I said as he shook his head. 

"Don't say that. She was miserable when she was without you. Even though she managed to heal on her own but she missed you more than anything." He informed me. I excused myself when Bucky came running in.

"Can I talk to you Y/N?" He asked me. I nodded and followed him outside. "We have witnesses saying that the guys who did this were Hessians. They had the brands on their hands but the one who shot the gun, he also had a tattoo of that cartoon character off Looney Tunes. You know the one who is always trying to catch Road Runner."

"Wiley Coyote?" I named for him. I remember one of The Boss's guys who had that tattoo. I was only a kid when my dad used to take me for meetings and he was the one who would watch whenever The Boss wanted a private conversation with my dad. I guess some people never really leave the life do they.

"Yeah that one." He nodded before he took a deep breath. "Also it seemed to be a planned hit. None of the other classes where disturbed. It seemed to be aimed at Wanda."

"When The Count took over from The Boss he had everything that had left right." I asked him as he nodded. "He had all of the information he had on me. From the moment I joined to the moment I deflected and the reason why."

"Fuck." He said as he ran his hands over his face. "Do you think he's trying to carry on what The Boss started?" 

"I think he is. Or he is trying to be bigger but we need to find out everything we can on The Count and the connection he has with The Boss and The Black Order." I told him as he nodded. 

"Y/N, the doctor's asking for you." Pietro came out as I just looked between them both. 

"Find out anything you can and also get me a proper description of the shooter." I told Bucky as I followed Pietro back inside. 

"Mrs Y/L/N?" The doctor spoke as I nodded in confirmation. "We have managed to stabilise your wife. She had two GSW's to the abdomen, luckily they didn't hit any vital organs." They said before they faltered. "But I am not sure how to say this. We were unable to prevent the miscarriage." 

"M..miscarriage?" I stuttered as I could feel tears in my eyes. "She was pregnant?" I asked barely above a whisper as I could hear her mum sob behind me. 

"She was. I am so sorry." They said before they continued. "We haven't been able to tell her but we think that it may be better receiving the news from you." They said as I could feel my anger rising. 

"YOU CAME OUT HERE TO TELL ME THAT I HAVE TO TELL HER THAT WE LOST A BABY THAT WE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT. A BABY THAT WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT SINCE WE GOT BACK TOGETHER. I HAVE TO BE THE ONE." I shouted as Pietro tried to pull me back. "I have to be the one to be the bad guy." I whispered as they gave me a sympathetic smile. "What room is she in?" I asked them as they shown us the way. 

"I think we should leave Y/N alone with her." Mr Maximoff spoke as the rest agreed when we watched Wanda's sleeping form. I took a seat beside her bed and took her hand in mine. 

"I am going to find who did this to you princess and I promise you he will pay." I told her sleeping form. "But I just hope you would forgive me." I said as I let a tear slip down my cheek. I waited as I watched her chest rise and fall silently hoping to see her beautiful eyes. 

"Hey." I heard her croak out as I got her some water and helped her drink some. 

"Hey princess." I whispered sadly as I combed my fingers through her hair. "You gave me a scare there." I said with a slight chuckle trying to make light of the situation. 

"What have you got to tell me?" She asked me as she readjusted herself with my help. I took a deep breath before looking into her piercing green eyes. 

"Well, there was a complication during the surgery." I started as she listened to me. "They were unable to uh they couldn't stop it from happening. You had a miscarriage." I said as I held my tears in as I watched her take in the news. I watched as she started to sob uncontrollably. I tried to comfort her as best as I could. I just let her get it out. 

"I can't believe it." She whispered shakily. I just nodded because I didn't trust my voice. I had so many different emotions going through me right now. 

"I'm so sorry princess." I whispered as I kissed her head. "Your parents and Pietro are here." I told her as she just smiled at me. 

"Can I have a proper cuddle off you first?" She asked me as I looked at her nervously. I wanted nothing more than to hold her in my arms but I didn't deserve to. 

"I'm gonna go and find them for you." I told her before I left the room. If I couldn't protect her, I sure as hell didn't deserve to hold her. It's because of me that she is constantly in danger and I am too damn selfish to let her go.

Again please don't hate me. The story has just started to go into motion. But anyway Wanda didn't die so everything is almost peachy :)
