Work Text:
Wanda and Natasha have been sharing a secret for a few month now, it all started with a simple knock on a door.
- - ᗢ - -
It’s been a week now that the whole ultpocalyspe happened, a week that my brother has been put in a coma, and also a week that I haven’t left his side, not even to shower or to eat, the only time I did left his side was when I had to go to the toilet.
I am currently writing on a piece of paper that I found on the bedside table this morning, i already know from who- there is a knock on the door, it scared me a little, I look away from the paper to the door and see The Black Widow watching me.
“Hi, do you need anything?”
She took a few step towards me “I need you out of here, Bruce is going to run some new test on your brother, so you and I in the waiting time, will go out to eat” she finished walking until she was right in front of me.
“I can’t just leave his side ! What if something bad happens?” My voice breaks when saying this, I don’t want to think of this possibility.
“Then banner will be here with tony and dr. Cho to make sure that everything is going well” Natasha take the paper from my hand and put it on the bedside table, then she take my hand and pulls me to get me on my legs. “And I’m sure you don’t want to be put in a coma too because you didn’t took care of yourself, do you?”
“I- I don’t want to let him alone” I let myself be pulled towards the exits of Pietro’s bedroom by Natasha, “we will be back in an hour, right?”
She nods, and keeping my hand in hers. she take me to a room that are a few door from Pietro’s, it’s a beautiful bedroom with black and red walls, hardwood floor and white celling, a black bed with Natasha’s symbol on it, “sorry, tony made sure that we all had our own room in the color of our suits” she let out an embarrassed chuckle. “If I had a choice I would have chosen more color like green or blue”
“Don’t be sorry it’s a beautiful room, even if the bedsheets and pillow look like children's” I look around the room until I spot a grey door slightly open, it looks like a bathroom, a really spacious one.
Natasha leads me to that door “tony doesn’t have a room for you or your brother that aren’t just white and cold” she completely open the door -yep a bathroom- “take a shower, I will let you some clothes on the sink, take your time, also my bedsheets are not for children!” She then gets out off the room- probably to fetch some clothes- and I let out my first chuckle since Ultron.

That day has been our first date -well I like to call it like that- , not the best but I did my best to make her smile, it’s been 2 months and we have no updates on Pietro’s health. Wanda has been having a lot of nightmares were pietro lose his fight against death, it’s hard to watch her being so tired and practically lifeless.
Today is a special day, they finally have their own bedroom, I made sure that tony doesn’t do something stupid with it. I am in charge of showing to Wanda her room, that is why I am on my way to Pietro’s room, where she temporarily reside. Once before the door I knock twice before entering.
“Wanda?” I look everywhere in the room from my spot, not seeing her anywhere. Until I hear a crash in the bathroom that is followed by a sokovian curse. “I’m sure my mother would not like to hear what you just called her”
Wanda laught and let her head out of the room smiling at me “your mother would make me curse her as a greeting” she then get totally out of the room “and I’m sorry, I broke the mirror” she didn’t need to explain more, I understand.
After I called Friday explaining the situation, i took her in my arms trying to comfort her “I know it’s hard Wanda, but I promise you that Pietro is going to wake up one day, and just like you, he is going to join the avengers” I said in her ears, and I know immediately that she needed the reassuring, because she took a firm grip around me and didn’t let go for a few minutes.
“Thank you Nat, I hate seeing him like that” she took a step back and smiled at me “you were here to tell me something? Or to take me out on another date?”
“Both, what do you think about a date, in your own room?”
“I- I don’t have a room Nat” she looks confused and then smile so brightly that I thought the sun was in front of me “My room is finished!?”
I nod my head and extend my hand to her, letting her the choice to take it or not, to no surprise she took it and we slowly made our way to her new bedroom, we stop at my door and she look once again confused “I asked tony to make sure that your room is never far from mine, so here we are” we turn our back to the door of my room, to be meet by another door, I let her hand go towards it with a smile “I hope you will like it”
She smiled and entered the room, letting a surprised gasp to what she saw, her room is a deep grey on the walls and white floor with a beige carpet on it. “It’s beautiful Nat, did you choose the color?” When I nod once again my head with proudness she took me in her arm and to my big surprise, she kissed me, like, a real kiss on the lips. “Thank you Nat, for everything you did for me”

Nat and I started our relationship on that kiss 4 months ago, and I can’t be more happy then I am right now, even with my brother still in a coma, by now, I stopped having hope of him waking up, I still come to see him, but not so often, and I sleep with Nat at night, either my room or hers.
Today Tony wanted to make a big party for me, because it’s been half a year that I joined the avengers, so in that spirit I made sure that Nat didn’t see my suit for the party, and that I don’t know what dress she’s gonna wear, in any case I know she is going to be perfect, and that it going to be hard for me to keep my hands for myself.
I looks at myself in the mirror one last time satisfied with my look, I finally gets out of my room to head to Pietro’s room, once in there I go to him and let a kiss on his forehead “I love you Pietro, I hope you enjoy your nap and that you whole wake up soon” after my few words I adjust his sheets on him and get out towards the party.
Once there I hear people’s conversation stop, and Tony goes directly towards me, his arms open and a big smiled on his face “Maximoff ! You have finally arrived! The party can now really start !” He put his arms around my shoulders and make me walk by his side “And that’s-“ he lose me when I see Nat standing behind the bar talking with Banner.
“Wanda if you want a drink just tell me” Clint said popping out of nowhere.
“Thanks for the offer Clint, but I will go get a drink myself” i take Tony’s arms off of her and start to walk towards the bar, once here i sit and smile at Nat “hey”
“Hey! What can I get you? Let me guess, a soda ?” When I nod my head, she chuckle. “I thought so” she hands me my drink and continue “so what such a beautiful woman is doing here all alone?”
“Well, my date left me alone to take care of the bar” I take a sip of my drink and smile at Nat “and since when have you been working for Mr. Stark?”
Nat laught a bit “well, I am sure that your date is a dumbass” she look at someone else and nod her head “I have been working for Tony, for the past-“ she looks at the watch on my wrist “ two hours” she was going to continue the conversation when she was asked somewhere else “sorry котёнок» and like that, she was gone.
I then turn around to look at everyone and everything, my eyes meeting Clint eyes, he smiled et me and made his way towards me and stopped right in front of me “You know, for someone who is supposedly in a secret relationship, you don’t know how to hide when you don’t like something”
“Hiding that I’m in a relationship is easier than to hide that I don’t like parties” I sip once again on my drink. “What do we do in parties like that?”
“We have fun, we get drunk, well we have to scratch that one, Nat doesn’t want you to get drunk” Clint smirk and take me by the forearm, pulling me up and drag me to the dance floor “but, we can still have fun” and so we danced for 30 minutes or so. When we stopped I took a look around seeing Nat dancing with Banner, making me slightly jealous.
Just then Tony get up on a table “All avengers are requested here for a never have I ever!” Clint and I made our way to Tony my eyes still on Nat and Banner, whom are also on their way to Tony. When we are all sitting and listening to him et says “I hope everyone knows what is Never have I ever, because I won’t explain”
I move slightly uncomfortable, not knowing what this game is, and to my surprise Nat gets up and start to explain, to be fair it’s a pretty easy game. And so we start to play, it’s a soft start with things like "never have I ever dated someone" asked by Peter, and "Never have I ever stole a phone" by Banner. As the game continues, on his turn Tony said “Never have I ever kissed someone of the same sex” leading Nat, Bruce, Thor, Steve and I to drink.
“Wait a damn minute! Wanda Maximoff! You kissed a girl before ?” Tony said chuckle “I don’t think you understood the question!”
I smiled and said in a calm voice “I kissed a girl before, multiple times” I look subtly at Nat then back at Tony “I did understood what you said” after that the game continued.

After a few hours the party has finally been put to a stop by Tony, and I was walking to my room when I saw Nat entering hers, so in a burst of bravery I go towards her, grab her jaw and kiss her lips. We kiss for a few minutes before we hear behind me Tony say “Well, that’s hot” so naturally we separate and put some distance between us, “oh no no, don’t stop because we are here” Tony joke.
“Natasha? I thought you liked me?” Banner said a bit sad.
“Bruce, you are my friend, and I do like you, but only as a friend” nat said putting one of Her arm around my waist. “And as much as I love everyone of you, my girlfriend asked for attention first” she then pulled us into her room and when the door shut behind us said, “I am so sorry Wanda ! I thought there was no one in the hallway!” She sounds panicked.
“Nat ! It’s okay, I was gonna ask you if we could say it to everyone anyway” I cupped her face and let a small kiss on her lips before taking a step back “well, we better get ready for bed right ?” We got ready to sleep, and once under the sheets I said something I wanted to tell her since we started dating “I love you Nat”.
I heard a gasp, then a few sobs and then Nat said with a shivering voice “I love you too Wands”
