The Omegas 2

Talking Again

The next morning, the kids had gone out to play after breakfast. Harley made sure he'd keep a close eye on everyone, and the others all agreed. I was just finishing putting the dishes away from breakfast, when a voice came from the door.

"Need some help?" I glanced back to see Luke, Loki, and Tony standing there.

"No, thank you," I replied, putting a spoon away. "I'm already finished." Luke caught my gaze, keeping it for a moment.

"We wanted to talk to you," he finally said. "After all, it's been five years." I knew I'd eventually have to talk to them, but I'd kinda been putting if off because I wasn't sure what to say to them. It had been five years. What was I supposed to say? 

"It seemed like a really hard five years for you," Tony spoke up after. "You lost all of us and your parents. You had to take care of Harley and a baby, along with Sierra and Harley's kids." I didn't want to think about that because it brought back bad memories. I really wasn't in a good place then. 

"We wanna help," Loki continued, stepping up beside me. "Because it's obvious that this has brought up some emotions." 

"I don't really want to talk about it," I responded. Not now. 

"Why not?" Tony asked. I took a deep breath, looking out the window and watching Alex and Bianca play with Andy and Lory. 

"Because it was really hard. And I don't want to think about it." 

"Omega," Luke said, softly. "We love you. And we want to help. We need you to tell us what you need." I set a towel down on the counter that I'd used to dry my hands, sighing. 

"I don't know," I replied. I didn't know what I needed to feel better. I just knew that I was still being affected by what happened, even after five years, and that I had just pushed it out of my mind for a few years. It was all coming back after seeing them and talking to Sierra about it. 

Loki walked over to me and wrapped his arms around my waist, pressing his nose into the scent gland on my neck. He nuzzled it soothingly. Tony did the same thing to my other side. Luke walked over and stood in front of me, cupping my face in his hands. 

"I don't know what it was like for you," he said, softly. "But I know it must've been hard. We're gonna help you now." He leaned forward and kissed me gently. It was really nice. 

Luke pulled away and brushed a tear off my cheek that I hadn't even realized was there. I sighed and rested my head on his chest, closing my eyes. It still hurt, the pain of thinking they were gone forever. It hurt a lot. I just hadn't realized how much. 

As I started to really cry, they were there to hold me close, kissing me gently and trying to soothe me. 

They were there. I knew I would get better. 

Sorry for this being so long. I've just been really busy. People assume we're not busy, but I still have a lot of stuff for school and it's frustrating because all the teachers are giving me more homework. Anyway, there it is. There will probably be one or two more chapters.
