who are you → wayhaught

chapter 1.0

Waverly and I talked for what seemed like hours but in reality it was only thirty or so minutes. We laughed and talked about numerous things, it almost felt like nothing happened and we were fine. But we weren't fine.

We were interrupted but her phone ringing.

"Let me take this." She said as she stood up and hobbled over into the living room

I listened as she answered the phone.

"Hey babe," she whispered

"Champ, no, I'm with someone right now."

"She's my new friend, and I can be with people without telling you!" She shouted

I got up and stood in the doorway, she looked at me and hung up the phone.

"I'm sorry, boyfriend issues, am I right?" She laughed nervously

"No, not really." I said

"Are you not in a relationship?" She asked

"I was, it's a long story." I said as I looked at my shoes

"Well anyone who doesn't like you, is stupid." She said trying to cheer me up

I laughed, "Yeah."

She grabbed her crutches and started to the living room, only to trip and fall. I hurried and kneeled by her side.

"Are you okay, babe?" I accidently said

"What did you call me?" She asked while sitting up

"Uh- nothing." I stood up and helped her to the couch

She mumbled a thank you.

"I- I should go." I said as I put my hat back on

"Okay," She said while playing with the bandage on her arm

I stood there, admiring her, when a hand on my shoulder distracted me.

"We should talk," Wynonna whispered as she pulled me outside

"What about?" I asked

"Waverly has been asking questions, I can't answer."

"Like what?" I ask again

"Like why Champ keeps asking about a redheaded girlfriend that she has, or about how she's a lesbian."

I thought for a second before answering, "Let her answer those for herself." I said

"But what if she choses the wrong answer?" Wynonna asked

"Then I'll change her mind." I smirked

"Let's hope so, because Jeremy will not shut up about Wayhaught." She rolled her eyes

I laughed, "Wayhaught?"

"It's you and Waverly's ship name I guess, he will not stop talking about it."

"Oh, I see." I said slowly

I looked through the window at Waverly before leaving, she looked distant as I gazed at her. Like she was thinking about something.

Wynonna interrupted me, "Your radio thingy is going off like crazy."

I looked down at the radio slung on my shoulder and listened.

"We have multiple gunshots at Shorty's, please advise."

Me and Wynonna both looked at each other, "We need to go," She said

"No, you stay here with Wave." I directed

She nodded and started to pout as she started to walk to the front door.
