- do you not hear me?

WONDERWOMAN'S POV  // 

"Diana.....you awake?" A voice asked. By the tone of it I could guess that it was Hal. He stood up from where he was sitting and got up marching in front of the bed so I could directly see him.

"Hal......?" I asked getting up. I could see various wires attached on my wrist, a desk full of syringes and drugstore medicines. The room was dark and only the two of us were here.

"Are you all right? Do you remember what happened?" He asked holding my hand. I was relieved that he was here instead of Bruce, things would've been so weird.

"I don't want to remember what happened. I can't believe I let my guard down, I feel so stupid." I replied scratching the back of my head. As far as I remembered I injured Bruce badly, almost broke Barry's arm and stabbed Clark. What kind of person does that to her own team?

"It's okay, you were not on your right mind. Besides, everything's okay now. Bruce is recovering, there's nothing for you to worry about." Hal said, patting my shoulder. "I should call Bruce, he asked me to call for him the moment you get up."

"Wait......." I held his arms.

"Diana, I know things have been a mess on both of your sides but remember that he's the one who saved you. And believe me, he went through a lot of trouble to bring you back." Hal answered.

'No, I know that. It's just I'm not ready...to see him." I replied standing up straight. "I know this sounds crazy but I don't want him to see me. I feel bad for whatever I did and there's......"

"Diana....he knows."

"Knows what?" I asked, not knowing the obvious.

"He knows about you. We all do, well except for Aqua man." Hal muttered.

"What?" I yelled out loud. I couldn't believe the fact that the secret I had been keeping was a waste. They all knew it, all of them, even Bruce. Oh my god what am I going to do now? This makes facing him even more difficult.

"How the hell did he know? I mean you all know? Oh my god I'm so embarrassed." I yelled sitting down.

"Well remember we had our health checkups done at the previous month? It showed there, Robin told us." He replied sitting beside me. "Hey, come on there's nothing embarrassing about this. This is amazing news and you're going to be a great mom. Also he's going to have a great uncle Hal." He laughed.

It felt so good to hear him be so supportive about this whole thing. Hal was indeed one of the greatest friend I ever had and I knew I would be supportive too if he was going through the same thing. But one thing was still on the back of my mind.

How would Bruce react? Would he like this or not? Would he hate me for ruining his life? Or would he never talk to me again? There was only one way to find out.

"Hal, did you talk to Bruce about this? Do you have any idea how he feels about this?" I asked.

"Well, he seemed......."

"Hal, what did I order you to do?" A voice joined us. We got up immediately from where we sat and faced Bruce. His face held a plain expression, as if he felt nothing. I was even more scared, now that I had no time to come up with an explanation.

"Sorry....."

"Didn't I tell you to call me immediately?" He asked, hint of annoyance in his voice. He had several bruise in his face that I could only assume hurt more than they looked.

"We got to talking, I'll leave the room to you two." Hal replied trying to excuse himself.

"Hal..." I replied grabbing him by the arm. I really wanted him to stay, I didn't want to be alone especially since I knew that Bruce had knowledge about my condition. Hal stood there looking at me, then at Bruce confused not knowing what to do. I just held his arm, hoping he'd change his mind about leaving me here.

"Do you not hear me?" Bruce asked, his voice even annoyed this time. Even Hal got scared this time and assured me that he needed to go. I couldn't hold onto him any longer and had to let go too.

God have mercy in me.
