She Saved Me (Gal Gadot/You/Katie McGrath AU)

XXIV.

Gal's POV

I can hear y/n and Katie on the other room, meanwhile Tom is here with me eating silently. He's still mad at me and clearly he has all the right to be.

I initiated what happened between us. I thought it was better for us to move on than to continue the hopeless searching. Tom isn't fond of giving up but I encouraged him to... and now karma's here for me. I was wrong and now I've lost the two remaining people in my life.

After I finished eating, I quietly put my dishes on the sink. As I walk toward where y/n and Katie were I saw them kissing.

All I could do was stare. They were happy with each other. It hurts to see y/n being kissed by someone else... it hurts even more knowing it's my fault.

"Y/n is happy now, after all she's experienced the least we could do is be happy for her as well. Don't ruin this for her Gal. Enough is enough." Tom said from behind me.

I couldn't move as I watch them go inside y/n's room with their fingers intertwined. I could feel tears run down my face so I quickly wiped it away.

Walking towards the room that Tom and I shared, I saw him leaving carrying his patched up pillow.

"Where are you going?" I asked him.

"I'm sleeping on the couch. I'll ask Katie if I could move in to another room tomorrow." He replied.

"Why? Is it because of what I said?" I asked him a bit taken aback.

"Of course it's about what you've said." Tom whispered-yelled trying to contain his anger so no one could hear him.

"You continue to pine over y/n, and I'd be too stupid to pine over you too. You've swept me with your words, all those days we've been together alone but now everything is clear. You only care about looking after yourself, and about how you feel, Gal... I don't think I'll ever want to be with you after everything that has happened." Tom added.

His words hurt but I deserve it all. Now I have no one but our baby.

"I'll still take care of you, until our child is born. After that you could look after yourself. My child is my only responsibility from now on." He said before walking away leaving me at the entrance of our-- my room.

Katie's POV

I woke up with y/n cuddled up beside me. I never thought I'd be this happy again. I pushed a bunch of hair covering her face to admire her. I can't believe she actually like me back, our kiss was so magical and... and perfect. Everything about her is perfect. I slowly removed myself from her hug and silently walked out of the room to make breakfast.

"Morning." Gal greeted me.

"Good morning, Gal. How's your sleep?" I asked her.

"It's fine. Cooking breakfast for y/n?" She asked in return.

"Yes, she deserves a break after all." I said.

"That's great." Gal nodded.

"I'm glad your here to take care of her." She added.

I sat down on the chair while waiting for the breakfast to cook.

"Why do I feel like all we talk about is y/n?" I asked her.

"We never talk about anything else but her." I added.

Gal shrugged.

"I just want to make sure that she's okay." She said.

"Look, Gal. I know you have issues with y/n right now, but I assure you that she's fine and happy. I promise to take care of her."

"I promised her that too but look at where we are now." She said.

Her comment pissed me off.

"We are not the same person. Unlike you, I never gave up on y/n even when she was on the verge of dying. You were too consumed by your self that in just a few months you gave up on finding her when the first thing she did when she gained consciousness was to find you." I said.

Thankfully the breakfast was already cooked. I gathered everything that I needed and went back to y/n's room.

Y/n is still sleeping soundly when I entered her room. I set her breakfast on the bedside table then slowly sat on her bed.

I caressed her cheeks to admire her then leaned down to kiss her lips.

"Wake up beautiful, your breakfast is ready." I told her softly as she starts to stear in her sleep finally waking up.

"Hmmm... good morning." She says softly as she smiles

"Last night was the best sleep I've had in months." She added.

"And you'll have more great sleep in every upcoming nights, I'll make sure of that." I told her.

Y/n finally sat up so I placed her breakfast on her lap.

"Thank you for this, Katie. You didn't have to do this." She told me kissing my lips in the process.

"Well, I just wanted to make things special for you. I know you've been having a hard time lately." I said as I held her hand.

Y/n nodded as she took her fork smiling. I'd do everything just to see her this happy every day.

"Eat with me?" She asked.

I nodded and happily obliged with her request. We never got to eat our dinner last night so I made a big breakfast just for her which we ended up sharing making us both full and happy.
