Chapter Text
Wanda shifted between the sheets, feeling warmth from someone else beside her. Smiling before she even opened her eyes, because it wasn't a dream. There had been months of her and Darcy dancing around each other, just being friends, before they finally went out a few weeks ago. Everything sort of rolled along so easy from there, and finally Darcy stayed the night.
Darcy kept everything at the Compound running smoothly and had taken Wanda underwing immediately. Darcy wasn't much older than Wanda, and it felt nice to have someone who wasn't some superhero to talk to. Someone normal. It made Wanda feel normal when she hung out with Darcy, which was something she hadn't felt in quite some time. Her face was the first thing Wanda saw when she finally cracked her eyes open. They had fallen asleep cuddled up close and stayed that way it seemed.
She reached to brush a bit of hair from Darcy's face, her skin was so soft and warm. When Wanda had fallen asleep she'd had thoughts of getting up first and making breakfast so Darcy would wake up to warm food, but now that she was laying there and it was morning, Wanda wasn't getting up until Darcy did, it was too nice getting to just lay there watching this beautiful woman she loved sleep.
Darcy didn't stay sleeping for too long though. Stirring slowly, her hand stretching and then kneading what it was resting upon, which just happened to be Wanda's thigh. A smile crossed her lips as her eyelids fluttered open. "Hey. How long have you been awake?"
Wanda blushed a little. "Not very long. I just couldn't get up though when you were still laying here."
Darcy giggled softly and brushed her hand down Wanda's cheek. "That's sweet." She shifted, leaning in to roll a soft kiss over Wanda's lips.
Wanda slid her fingers into Darcy's hair and reached again for another kiss when Darcy started to pull back from the first. She fortunately didn't seem to mind letting Wanda indulge a little more in her soft, full lips. Wanda was in awe of so many things about Darcy, from her body to the way she carried herself around the Compound, giving off these powerful vibes. She knew Darcy said she was insecure all the time on the inside, and she'd gone so far as to give Wanda permission to peek into her mind at will for a few days to prove it, but even knowing Darcy's thoughts, Wanda still didn't picture her any differently, or see any less confidence. If anything it made Wanda think Darcy was just that much stronger and more amazing. "You are a wonderful sight to wake up to."
"You are definitely the prettiest thing I've woken up to, ever." Darcy's fingertips skimmed over Wanda's arm. "What do you think you'd like to do today?"
"I don't know. I feel like I want to run out and do everything with you, but I also kind of want to just soak in this for a while longer." Wanda played with Darcy's hair and stroked her skin, in zero rush to even get out of bed.
"There's no rush. We can soak all you want, and then we can see about venturing out to do more things. I certainly don't mind a lazy day. And it kind of sounds like it's still raining, which to me is always an excuse to stay in whenever possible." Darcy smiled as she saw Wanda's smile growing.
"I wanted to make you breakfast before you woke up, but then I couldn't seem to drag myself out of the bed." Wanda was slowly wiggling in closer to Darcy and snuggling up against her. Darcy giggled softly and kissed Wanda's head.
"I love you. And how sweet you are. We can make breakfast together." Darcy combed her fingers through Wanda's hair and twirled her finger over her nearly bare shoulder. Once they'd gotten into Wanda's room last night, the dress code became very casual. They'd both wound up stripped down to their panties and a top. Darcy had a soft cotton, ribbed tank on, while Wanda had a slightly silky with lace trim cami top. There had been a lot of kissing and a good deal of soft touches and tentative exploring of each other's body. They had avoided certain areas and kept hands over what little clothing they had on. But it had still felt very intimate to Darcy.
Wanda kissed Darcy's chest and squeezed softly. "I love you."
Darcy just smiled as Wanda stilled, tangled around her. She was a little hungry, and wouldn't have minded using the bathroom, but until she hit that really need to pee point, she just couldn't disturb Wanda. It was a little while before Wanda started to move again and looked up at Darcy. "Should we go make breakfast?"
"I suppose so. I am starting to feel a little hungry." As Wanda shifted to sit up, Darcy did as well. Wanda still didn't really want to leave the bed. It was so perfect and cozy there with Darcy, but she was craving breakfast, and she didn't want Darcy getting hungry either.
"Okay, bathroom and then breakfast." Darcy shifted to get up and took Wanda's hand to pull her along.
Neither of them got any more dressed before heading to the kitchen, there was no need. They quickly agreed on pancakes, and started collecting the ingredients and required bowls and utensils to make it. Wanda found the mini chocolate chips to put in hers, and Darcy pulled out some blueberries. They both giggled at each other's choice of addition.
"You know, I wonder how both would taste?" Wanda had been introduced to the pancake not all that long ago when she first arrived, and Clint had been the one to show her the joys of putting chocolate chips in them. She had become aware of many other ways to make pancakes from other people around the Compound, though she still seemed to like the chocolate chips best, but she'd never thought to combine the different additions before.
"You know, I've never tried it. We could make one with both and find out. I bet it's not bad." Darcy's expression was one of curiosity as her mind processed the idea.
"Okay!" The grin on Wanda's face was bright and brilliant.
Darcy giggled a little more as she caught Wanda around the waist with one arm and kissed her shoulder, and neck, and jaw, making Wanda stop what she was doing and just hum for a minute. "I love seeing you so happy and excited."
Wanda's smile shifted to something more earnest. "That's because of you. I feel more at ease when I'm with you."
Darcy pressed a soft kiss to the corner of Wanda's mouth. "Well then, I'm glad I could be of service." Her smile was soft, warm, and reached into her eyes.
Between the two of them, making pancakes moved quickly, pouring ingredients, stirring, heating up the pan, getting them cooking. Darcy was tending the pan while Wanda cleaned up a bit. The cleaning was finished before the last few pancakes, and Wanda couldn't resist pressing herself to Darcy's back, arms curled around. She could feel Darcy's smile and that sent warmth through Wanda's whole body. "That smells so good. I'm not quite sure how any other breakfasts could live up to it now."
"You know, I could get real used to this too." Darcy turned off the pan and got the last of the pancakes on a plate before setting everything down and letting her fingers brush over Wanda's arms, her head turning to peer over her shoulder as well.
"Yeah? Maybe we could make this a regular thing." Wanda nuzzled at the back of Darcy's neck and ear before kissing just below her earlobe.
"Breakfast is nice with company. And you're the best company I know." Darcy landed a kiss on Wanda's jaw and shifted. "Now, let's eat while they're still warm."
