If Domkat was a thing

6. Promise

After talking a bit we took a seat on Dom's couches and decided to watch a movie. We ended up pretty tired since I have been traveling for many hours and Dom was already exhausted from the beginning. We sat on the coach with my arms wrapped around Dom's shoulders. It was a quiet, peaceful moment while we watched "The Lion King". Yes, we both are Disney fans. But honestly, I didn't pay so much attention to the movie. All I could think about is Dominique sitting beside me. Her head laying against my shoulder. How her weight was pressed against me. And I didn't complain, I loved it. I loved how Dom felt so comfortable with me. How she can touch me without feeling nervous. That was my favorite thing to be with Dom. How awfully close we are with each other.

I turned my head down a bit and saw how Dom's eyes was closed. I turned off the volume from the movie and tried to listen on her deep, soft breathing. Wow it was calming. Hearing her breathe, seeing her alive. Since I know what's coming next. I don't know when, I don't know how. But I know that her life soon will end. Just thinking about it made my heart break. The tears started to well up in my eyes. This beautiful woman beside me, who is my bestfriend is about to leave me.
I softly, carefully caressed her cheek with my thumb and gave her a soft kiss on the top of her head. I then came down a bit on the couch and lay my chin against her head. Wanting to be close to her. It was quite for a small moment before my phone started to ringing. I sighed frustrated and then checked my phone. It was Ray.

K: "Hello?"

R: "Hey... Sweetie, when are you coming home?"

K: "I don't know. I'm with Dom right now"

R: "What are you up to?"

K: "We're watching a movie but she just fell asleep. I feel so bad for her"

R: "I know baby but everything is gonna be okay"

K: "No it's not, Ray. She's gonna... die" I almost whispered so Dom wouldn't hear me saying that word.

R: "Well maybe... But-"

K: "But what? Don't even try to care, Ray. I know how you feel about her. You hate her"

R: "So I can't support my wife?"

K: "If you wanna support me. Try to accept my relationship with Dom. That would make things so much easier"

R: "How am I suppose to accept you two and be calm while you and Dom probably will make out soon?!"

K: "Are you crazy? Stop this now, Ray"

R: "Yeah, but maybe when she dies you and I can go back to how it was before you got this stupid Nicole role of Wynonna Earp"

What the HELL did he just say about her?!!

K: "You are way out of line Ray. I'm right now starting to wonder why I married you. Say one more thing about Dom and I won't talk to you anymore"

That's it. That's what I said and then I broke the line. I looked back at Dom, she was still laying against me. I couldn't take it more. I started to cry. Those awful things Ray said about Dom made me so weak. How could he say those things about this angel? Why couldn't he see the beauty and all the kindness in this woman? I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her tightly, tightly in a gentle way so I wouldn't wake her up.
I sobbed on her shoulder and tried to take in everything in her. Oh gosh this girl is special.

"Kat?" Dom suddenly said.

I looked at her but didn't move. I didn't care about anything else right now than to be close to her.

"Hey..." I said quietly.

"You've been... You've been crying" she said and wiped the tears away that was running down on my cheeks. "What happen?"

"Ray called" that was the only thing I could say. This was awful.

"Okay and what did he say?"

"He said dumb things about you and I feel so so bad for you, Dom. You don't deserve it" I said and started to cry again. Hard.

"It's okay" she said and stroked my hair.

"It's not okay. Not at all. You deserve nothing more than all the love in the world and it makes me so frustrated that not even my husband can do that"

"I accept you and Ray's relationship but all I really, really care about is you Kat. I don't care about Ray's opinions. All that matters is that I have you, Melanie and Emily by my side. That's all what matters. So don't worry about it. But if you wanna leave and go home to Ray and Bernie it's okay. I don't want you to think that you have to stay here because you don't. So leave if you want, okay" she said so, so softly and took my hand in hers.

"What? No. Right now I don't wanna be with Ray. I wanna be right here, with you" I said and snuggled closer to her.

She didn't answer me on that. We just sat there on the couch and enjoying each other's company. Thinking about how lucky I am to have a friend like Dominique. How damn lucky I am... And I'm not just saying that. That's really how I feel. We have shared so many secrets with each other and we're always there for each other. And I don't know what I did to deserve that. And having the feeling that this beautiful human being will leave me breaks my heart. What on earth have she done to deserve this? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

"Dom, seriously, don't you dare leave me" I finally broke the silence after a while with a crying voice.

"Hey, I won't leave you" she answered and grabbed my hand. "My body might, but I will always be with you. I promise"

I hugged her. So, so tight so I would feel the touch of her against my body. I buried my face in her neck and wanted to be more closer than ever to her.

"Tomorrow you and I are going on an adventure and not thinking about this, okay?" I then said with a serious soft voice.

"Okay"
