Checkup, Favors, and Regrets
After everyone had left to either train or go do whatever they wanted within the compound, the three mates sat down for a bit. The two alphas comforted their omega together, both pumping out calming pheromones as their fingers traced the omega’s back, sides, and hair. It didn’t take long for the omega to relax and start purring under their ministrations, causing them to purr in return. Y/n was practically putty in their hands by the time the pack’s resident green beta linked them to let them know that he was ready to give the omega her follow up appointment.
The three mates made their was over to the examination room that beta Bruce had prepared.
The beta in question sat down on a chair in front of y/n so that he wasn’t looming over her. “Okay y/n I’m going to need you to change into that hospital gown so we can take you to go take some scans, then We’re going to come back here and I’m going to check you over. Is that okay with you?”
Y/n silently nodded and took the proffered gown in hand. She turned on her heel and headed towards the bathroom door so that she could change in privacy.
Once y/n had enclosed herself in the bathroom, Bruce turned to the two alpha women before him.” This is going to take a bit of time, you’ll have to wait here until the scans are complete, then you can hold her hand through the physical examination”
Natasha nodded as Wanda spoke for them, “We’ll be right here waiting”
“Also I know you have everything well in hand, but..”
Nat interrupted his train of thought “Don’t worry Bruce, I am already planning to contact Jen. I was going to do so earlier but I knew she was already in court.” Yes, she had already thought about everything. If the man who hurt their omega was to ever be foolish enough to do it again, it would be wise and advantageous to already have the law on their side, and that’s only if he was to beat the assault charges she wanted to serve him with. Then there was that Bane. She was sure there was something Jen could do about him, he’d put the pack’s members in danger, not to mention on the day itself someone in security should have gotten to y/n before them, she distinctly remembered seeing a camera pointing to the area that they had left y/n in. She also had to make sure that the damage caused during the altercation wouldn’t be an issue for them. She didn’t mind paying, but with the media surrounding the mall altercation she just wanted to cover her bases.
Bruce took out his phone and waved it around with a smile on his face. “Actually she texted me a minute ago, she won her case, and is out of court”
“Glad to hear it, I’ll link her once y/n is taking her scans and I’ll be sure to congratulate her. Whether she wants to or not, she is a hero, whether she's making a difference within the law or protecting people physically. I’m happy she’s pack, and I know she can take care of herself, but I want you to stay with her after this exam. She's one of our omegas too, and I don't want anything happening to her. I've already sent Carol ahead for her protection. I want you both with her since I know she can't just skip work.”
“Yeah” Bruce smiled sadly “ what happened to her, it’s my fault, but I’m glad she’s figured out how to live with it” he nodded “ better than I ever have anyway. I'll make sure she stays safe”
As Natasha went to say something in return, y/n effectively ended their conversation when she shuffled out of the bathroom door. Y/n didn’t exactly like hospital gowns; she always felt too exposed in them, which was evident in the way that she clung to the seam. “I hate these things” she grumbled with a frown on her face.
Wanda hugged her close and kissed her forehead “Sweets, It's only for a little bit”
The widow took one of her hands and kissed it reverently. “We'll be right here waiting for you when you're done”
Y/n looked into the forest green eyes she loved so dearly. “promise?”
Nat brought her free hand up to caress her omega’s cheek as Wanda kissed the other “ I promise my love”
“We promise”
Y/n held on for a few more minutes before she followed Bruce out of the room. The sooner she could get these scans done, the sooner she could be back in the arms of her lovers.
As y/n left, the two alphas sat together, sharing comfort in their embrace. Wanda, always the worrier of two, looked to her alpha for reassurance. “She’s going to be alright, right Tasha?”
The widow smiled as she kissed the wrinkles between the two furrowed brows on her mate’s head. “yes Malyshka, y/n is just fine, this is just a check up. She isn't hurting anymore, everything should come up fine, and together we'll make sure she stays that way”
Wanda hid her face in Nat’s neck and sniffled “ it's my fault the omegas are in danger. I should have never said y/n was my mate at the mall.. This is all my fault”
The widow gently removed Wanda’s face from her neck “Wands look at me” . It took a minute before sad eyes met steadfast green ones. “This is not your fault .”
Wanda searched her mate's eyes for any sign of decepion, but they held none, only love and truth.
“The only ones at fault are the man who hurt y/n and that incompitent security guard. And I don’t ever want to hear you even insinuate that you regret saying y/n is our mate. We both know y/n would take it the wrong way, and you should never have to feel like professing your love is a bad thing. By all wrights we should be able to scream it to the world but there are people who would seek to do her harm for it. That doesn’t mean it’s wrong to say it though. Even I said it that day, and I’d say it again in a heartbeat. Tel me does it’s feel right to say y/n is anything less than what she is to us?”
Wanda’s grimaced as she thought about it. She thought how it it would feel. She thought how if y/n was on that floor hurt and awake, how any other words would pierce her heart and souls far more than any injuries she could ever sustain. It was wrong. Protecting y/n by hurting her.. it made no sense “ no, it’s wrong, I’m sorry” Wanda let loose some more tears. How could she ever even think of doing anything that would hurt their omega.
“ it’s okay malyshka, you just want her safe, but we aren’t going to do that by hurting her. Together, you and I can keep her safe and loved”
Wanda nodded “ you’re right Detka” she sniffled bringing her hands up to wipe her tears. “ I should probably try to fix this before y/n gets back, I don’t want her worrying about me. The brunette stood up and made her way to the bathroom door.
“ okay I’ll be here”
