Work Text:
It was no secret at how much Yelena loves her sister, she’s constantly attached to her. Sometimes making it impossible for Natasha to work but they had a lot of time to make up for so she let the girl cuddle up with her as much as she wants.
Yelena loves Wanda too, the witch always makes her, her favorite foods and the baked cookies are one of the best things she’s ever tasted.
Yelena just doesn’t know how to show her love to the woman. With Natasha being her sister, it was easier for her to be the annoying sister/daughter. Having the history of their past, Yelena knew Natasha is someone she can always trust to not hurt her.
“Tasha I’m hungry” She groans, face down on the couch making the redhead chuckle.
“Go find Wanda detka, she’ll make something for you” The mention of her girlfriend making her miss her even more, they’ve been so busy lately it’s been hard to find time for themselves.
“Are you done yet?”
“Soon dorogaya”
——
“Breathe baby, in and out. You’re safe, you’re not there anymore.” Natasha said, rubbing Yelena’s back.
Yelena didn’t know what happened, one second she’s giggling with Wanda watching the sitcoms the witch loves so much and the next she can’t breathe and Natasha is kneeling infront of her.
“N-natty I can’t breathe!” She sobbed.
“Tell me five things you can see Lena.”
She could barely focus on anything but her heart pounding, her eyes were scanning the room trying her best to ignore the feeling like she’s dying.
“The Television- y-you..”
“Good girl, 3 more things.”
“Mug, t-the carpet, m-Wanda”
Wanda felt her heart tug as she watched Natasha continuing to calm down the girl, she hated how she couldn’t calm Yelena down herself, having to alert FRIDAY to get Natasha.
She wants to bring Yelena in her arms and hold her, protect her from all the bad in the world because the blonde has already seen so much bad in her life.
But she can’t, Yelena never likes to be touched during these moments, only responding to Natasha.
When Yelena calms down, they all sit on the couch. Wanda rests her head against her girlfriend’s shoulder, Yelena on the other side of Natasha.
Quiet sniffles fill the room and Wanda pretends it doesn’t hurt that Yelena isn’t cuddling with her too.
——
“What’s on your mind moya lyubov’?” Natasha asks as they lay in bed.
She knows something has been bothering her girlfriend, she just couldn’t figure out what. Pressing a soft kiss to her lips when Wanda tilts her head up.
Wanda sighs, she loves their kisses.
“It’s stupid I just-“ She feels so stupid now about speaking what’s been on her mind. “ -I hate how I can’t help Yelena when she’s upset”
Natasha continued holding her, letting Wanda gather her thoughts.
“I love her and I want her to know she can come to me too when something is wrong. I-I don’t know, I’m sorry”
“Don’t apologize wands, she loves you so much. She just doesn’t know how to show it, she’ll come to you detka I think she’s still adjusting to the fact she can show her emotions without being punished.”
Wanda nodded, “I’ll always be there for her even if she’s never ready”
Natasha doesn’t think it’s possible to be more in love with Wanda but the younger woman is always proving her wrong.
“Thank you for always being so sweet towards Lena, it’s hard.. to see her have flashbacks and having you with me makes it easier”
Wanda smiles, putting all her love in their kiss. “You’re so good with her, she adores you My love.”
“Sometimes I worry that I’m failing her”
Wanda sits up, brushing a strand of Natasha’s hair behind her ear. “Mistakes will happen and that’s okay, she’s done so much progress already and thanks to you she can be a kid now, you’re giving her everything you didn’t have and she knows that.”
Tears well up in the Russian’s eyes, the fear of failing Yelena is always in the back of her mind. “I love you, so much.”
Wanda squishes her cheeks making her laugh, “I love you too my darling.”
——
Two weeks after their conversation, Yelena bursts in their room in tears in the middle of the night.
Natasha immediately woke up as Yelena got up onto the bed. “What’s wrong dorogaya? Did you have a nightmare?”
Yelena whimpered, “Wanda”
Wanda usually would wake up straight away but she had just come back from a mission and was exhausted.
“Wanda” Yelena cried again, flinging herself onto Wanda.
She opened her eyes tiredly, confused at the weight on her, she knows it’s not Natasha but when she saw the girl crying into her chest, her eyes widened.
Natasha looked at her with a soft smile, nodding.
“I’m here malsyhka, you’re safe. Did you have a nightmare?” She asked, brushing her fingers through Yelena’s hair.
Yelena nodded, trying to bury herself more into Wanda’s chest. “Y-you died!”
“It wasn’t real sweetheart, I’m right here. Natasha and I are both here.” She hoped what she was saying was helping, she didn’t except this to happen usually Yelena always went to Nat first.
She was happy Yelena had come to her but it still sent a pang to her chest seeing her baby russian upset.
“Don’t leave me please.” Yelena shakily said, her body trembling now also grabbing her sister’s hand for comfort.
Wanda pressed a kiss to her forehead, looking at her with such love and care making Yelena want to cry again.
“I’ll never leave you, never. You’re stuck with me forever.”
“I like that.” Yelena whispered, “can we bake cookies tomorrow?”
Wanda chuckles, “Of course we can.”
“With extra chocolate chips?”
“With extra chocolate chips.”
“Am I invited in this or am I just for decoration?” Natasha teased with a small pout on her face.
Yelena giggled, “You too mama.”
Natasha froze, Yelena has never called her mama. It’s always just Tasha or Natty, she grabbed Yelena’s face, kissing her all over her face.
“M-mommy help me!” Yelena laughed.
Wanda almost burst into tears right there and then.
“I don’t know baby, you’re just too adorable” Joining in with Nat as they covered her face in kisses.
Yelena has never felt so happy and neither have the couple.
Natasha and Wanda will sob about their new names tomorrow, right now they lay here cuddling with their daughter. All three falling asleep with a smile on their faces.
