How To Get Away With Murder (Wes Gibbins)

I winced as I opened my eyes and got blinded by the light that streamed through the window. I mean, who the hell decided to open the curtains? I rolled over and stuck my hand out, searching for the warm comforting body that usually occupies that space. "Wes?", I called out and furrowed my eyebrows. My faced dropped as my hangover hit me like a brick and I sat up straight with a grimace. 

I look around the unfamiliar room with a sigh, remembering the current predicament. I slipped out of the hotel bed and looked out at Manhattan with a frown. My head snapped towards my phone as I heard my ringtone that indicated Wes was calling. After thinking for a moment, I decided to ignore it like the other 70 missed calls from everyone. Throwing my hair into a bun, I walked into the bathroom and turned on the water to take a shower.

While washing my hair, I heard something outside of the bathroom door. I finished washing my hair and turned off the water slowly. After not hearing anything for the next five minutes, I shrugged it off and dried myself off and slipped my previous outfit on. I walked out of the bathroom, while listening to my voicemails and brushing my hair. 

"You do know you have to come back sometime," I heard from a chair in the corner of the room. I squeezed my eyes shut, willing for her to disappear. "And who are you to tell me what I can and can't do?" I spat at Annalise as she stood up. "You can't just run away from the people that care for you. How do you think Wes is doing right now? I have never seen him this much of a mess," she seethed towards me. I chuckle and look down, "Why doesn't he just run to Laurel?" My eyes slowly make their way up to meet hers as I drag out my sarcastic laugh, "Do you even know? No, let me answer that for you. You have no idea how hard it is to watch the only person you could ever love fall for someone else right in front of you." She stares at me with that look as I ramble on, "And after so many years together, you would think that he couldn't actually have feelings for-"

"Y/N, stop," She interrupts. "We both know Wes. We both know he needs you. He can't properly function without you." I look at her with teary eyes, "That's the thing, I don't know that anymore. And to be frank, I don't want to hold him back from what he could be missing." She looks at me with a sad smile, "Look, I know I am not to good with emotions and relationships, but I have never seen two people more meant for each other than you and Wes. I'll be damned if you guys don't make up and get married after all this shit." 

I look over at her after a few moments of silence and nod. She gives me a tight smile and leads me to the car that was waiting to take us back to Philly.

Annalise opens the door to her house, where Connor, Asher, Laurel, and Michaela were waiting anxiously. I follow and watch as their faces fall in relief as we group hug. We all pull away as I dry my eyes and ask, "Does anyone know where Wes is?" They all frown, but Asher says, "He has been hiding in your guys' apartment since you left." I nod with a sad smile and grabbed Laurel's hand who looks at me with a sad smile. I nod in understanding and say, "Well, sorry I have to lea-" "GO," all of them yell at me. I nod and give them all a genuine smile, then turn towards the door and open it. I watch as Wes jumps off his bike and stands there staring at me. I feel tears welling up in my eyes as we both make our way to each other slowly. 

Wes gives me the "I am stupid and I am sorry" look I know all too well and crushes me in what I like to call the "Gib Hug". "What the hell were you thinking?" He asks as he holds me at arm length. I looked up at him with a frown, "I felt like you were losing love for me and falling for Laurel, so I thought I should move and create a new life." He gives me the 'really?' look and I break down, "I just thought since we've been together for so long, you were missing out and-" He sighs and grabs my face between his hands to look in my eyes, cutting me off. 

"Don't be stupid, no one else could deal with me," He places one hand lightly on my waist as he guided my lips to his with the other. I wrapped both of my arms around his torso as I leaned more into the kiss. I hear the door to the house shut, indicating that they were giving us privacy, like we had any. I pulled away as he started to talk, but I cut him off by kissing him again. "Okay," he mumbled against my lips as he wrapped me up in his arms once again. He smiles sadly, placing the recent situation in the fridge for later, but giving a look saying that there would still be more to it.

I sighed as I slowly opened my eyes to the dark room that was all too familiar and smiled faintly, before rolling over to reach my arm out. I felt the usual lump of warmth the other side of the bed was usually occupied with and played my head on his chest. While wrapping my arm and leg around him, he subconsciously pulled me closer and sighed in content. I fell asleep with a smile on my face.

Although, I woke up twenty minutes later to Wes' phone ringing. I hear him groan, "You get it."I open one eye and quickly untangle myself so that I could reach his phone. "Hello?" I answered his phone with a yawn, rubbing my eyes in the process. "Hey Y/N, it's Annalise-", I roll my eyes and huff. I watch as Wes leans on his elbow and motions for me to give him the phone, recognizing my famous 'Annalise is calling' groan. I scoot back down on the bed and lay my head on his stomach as he talks to Annalise about a new lead. I reach up play with his chest hair as he sighs with his eyes closed and continues talking to Annalise. "Alright, bye," He yawns as I stroke his shoulders sleepily. "What did she say?" He stretches while I sit up so that he could get up. "We have another case," he smiles at me sadly. I groan and flop on the bed as he chuckles while he kisses my head and starts to get ready for another joyful Annalise hell case.
