Wade waited. He'd been waiting since he touched his wife. He looked in the mirror. His face wasn't warped with scars. Wasn't filled with the pain of knowing he'd never be normal. Wasn't covered in the insecurity about seeing where he and his wife would take their children and not have people staring. He wished for the good things in life like having his bitching good looks again.
"You look fine." She said.
"Thanks."
"Wade about-"
"Look you were so wrong for interfering in any of this... If we were meant to be.. I would have died, but no I didn't. I found Harley and I found happiness. You can say you did it for me all you want. But you don't have to say it anymore. You did it for you. You did it for my half dead babies... How can I love them when I have two very healthy babies on the way somewhere else huh? I just wanted my family."
"Wade we are your family."
"You're still wearing her. You're still pretending that this is what I want. If I wanted to be with you don't you think I would want to be with your pale skin, lavender eyes, and night black hair? If I didn't want my constant reminder that she loved me too much? That she cared too much. That on our wedding day you made her chose between my happiness and her own. Which by the way you got all wrong."
"How did I get it wrong?"
"I love Harely. I loved her so much that her happiness is my happiness and now she's getting married to someone else all because I couldn't be there for her because ALL she wanted was my happines.." Wade sighed and and looked down. "Look I think you were jealous and because of that I lost the best thing to ever happen to me and I'm without words for how pissed off I am. I could yell and scream. But I'm not going to. I'm going to just tell you you really disappointed me. I wish you the best, but I would rather walk the seven seas of hell alone and drown than stay here for another minuet and listen to you try and plea with me for something I can't forgive."
"What about out children?"
Wade shrugged "Aren't they just an illiusion anyway?" He grabbed the bag he packed and walked out of the door. He walked to his own hell. His grave and waited. He held his breath and waited for her to come, but he hadn't heard a thing from her. He just sat and waited.
"You've really made a mess of things."
"You would know you live in my head." He looked up to what some would say the "angel" of his concious staring at him in a bettle jucie tuxedo.
"I do.. And I know that you just ruined one of the most solid loves you have ever had for a love you may never get back."
"Because it was bullshit and fake."
"Yes well.. Most things are."
"You loved her too.. No matter how much of a cynical asshole you tend to be."
"I loved her very much almost as much as your crazy alter ego."
"Well he'll think I made the right choice."
He looked at Wade with white eyes and shook his head. "Never said I didn't agree to your choice."
"So what do we do?"
He sat beside him. "Wait."
He looked at Wilson. "Until?"
"Either dipshit or the Doc. shows up."
Wade smiled. "Guess it's Dipshit."
Wilson shrugged. "Guess it's Dipshit."
"Hiya Wade... Sorry I haven't been here for a while.. I have had so much planning. We just had the baby shower. Wynter got so many hand made clothes from Diana I don't know what to do with them. She bought Wade a sword. She said he may be a man but to be born with a sister is a great blessing sos she gave him a pass which is always good... Bruce even came and brought him a crap ton of clothes. It was nice. Wally went all out. I mean he bought EVERYTHING he thought you would have... It was amazing.. Now all we got is the wedding. It's in two weeks.. I'm going to give birth in like four so safer the better." Pause "He makes me happy Wade... Just like you did.. And I wish that you and death were too, but it looks like you can't be, because she's crazy. And I know that she.. she loves you but she's going about it all wrong and I wish nothing but the best... I hope one day it can be you and I.
I did because I was.. am selfish. I thought you would stop loving me when I grew old and the children wouldn't understand when they were in thier fourties that you would still be.. You. You'd run off and watch our whole lineage die.. I just wanted you to be happy with someone who could ALWAYS be there. And some how some way I couldn't be there and I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I love you and I always will but.. Here." Two 3d ultrasound. "Wynter is in pink lining Wade in red. I love you.. I will see ya around."
"Well that was something right?"
"Made me feel worse."
Wade looked at the beautiful pictures Wynter had a head full of hair and a cute button nose. Like her mother. Wade looked like his old pictures. "They are beautiful."
"Aren't they. Ya did good man."
"I didn't do good enough."
"You... You did what you had to... You loved her. But at the same time... I don't think you had it in you to quit death."
Wade shrugged. "I guess not." He stared at the pictures lost. What was going to happen now? What if this was all for nothing? What if this was for nothing? What if for no reason Doctor stranges' plan never works and he's stuck here alone with someone he knows isn't going to ever love him the way he loves Harley? All of these what ifs and all he had was two beautiful children needing their real father in their lives, and Wally was doing what he could only dream. Damn her! He was angry. He was angry she had to love him the way she did. And she worried about him the way she did. Damn her. He'd be miserable for every life he took in this grave yard until he could be in her arms again.
