Best of both worlds

Part 29

Wanda had noticed a change in Natasha's behaviour recently. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she could feel the distance between them growing with each passing day. They had gone from speaking constantly through out the day to passing comments. Determined to find out what was going on, Wanda decided to confront Natasha.

One evening, Wanda found Natasha sitting on the porch, lost in her thoughts. Taking a deep breath, she approached Natasha, her voice laced with concern. "Natasha, I've noticed that something has been bothering you lately. Are you okay? What is going on?"

Natasha jumped a little, startled by Wanda's sudden appearance. She glanced at her, a flicker of fear in her eyes. "I-I'm fine, Wanda. Really, there's nothing to worry about. Everything is fine." Wanda could tell that Natasha was trying to hide something. She decided to press further, hoping to get to the root of the issue. "Nat, we've been through a lot together, and you know I care about you. Please, you can trust me. Is something going on? Is there a reason you're pulling away from me?"

Natasha sighed, feeling conflicted. She never wanted to hurt Wanda, but the truth scared her. But she knew she couldn't keep running away from her feelings. "Wanda, it's complicated. I... I care about you too, but... I'm scared. "Wanda looked at Natasha, her eyes filled with confusion. "Scared? Scared of what, Natasha? You know I would never do anything to hurt you."

Natasha's voice quivered with fear and vulnerability as she opened up about her troubled past, revealing her innermost fears. "It's not about you, Wanda. It's about people from my past. I'm scared that if I admit my feelings for you, they'll find out and hurt you. You and our family are my weakness and he knows it."

Wanda reached out, gently placing her hand on Natasha's, a compassionate expression showing on her face. "Natasha, I understand that you have trust issues because of your past. But I can protect us, just like you protect us. We can face this together. I won't let anyone take us away from each other."

Natasha's eyes filled with tears, a mix of relief and apprehension. Slowly, she allowed herself to believe in the possibility of a brighter future. "Wanda, it's hard for me to let my guard down, but I want to trust you. If you promise me that we'll take precautions and stay safe, then... then maybe we can explore this connection between us."

Wanda smiled, her heart swelling with affection and understanding. "Natasha, I promise you that we'll be careful. We'll take every measure to keep ourselves safe. And I'll always be here for you, no matter what. And once Melina is healed from whatever happened to her we will deal with Dreykov okay?"

As they sat there, holding each other's hands, Wanda and Natasha found solace in their shared understanding and love. Together, they would navigate the challenges of trust and a complicated past, while embracing the hope for a beautiful future.

"I love you Natasha." She whispered in the Russians ear, the Russians breath got caught in her chest, she waited for something bad to happen but nothing did. "I... love you too, always." She whispered back as she held onto her tight, tears running down her face.

"so will you be my girlfriend?" Wanda asked pulling away a little so she could see the Russians face, natasha responded by pulling her back in with a whine. "stay." she mumbled placing a kiss on her neck. "I just want to stay with you like this forever. You're not allowed to move, you're mine now so you're stuck here." Natasha said quietly, Wanda couldn't help but smile at her best friends cuteness.

"Is this your way of saying yes to being my girlfriend?" Wanda chuckled a little, Natasha nodded into her neck. "yes."

The two soon heard cheers and when they turned they saw Melina standing with the two littles. Nat's face went bright red, "I hate you so much." She said looking at Melina. "I'm so proud of you. You said it at the perfect time too." Natasha raised her eyebrow in confusion, Melina lifted up a plate with a huge rainbow cake on it. "You finally got your gay cake."

Wanda couldn't help but laugh, trying to hide it behind her hand but it was obvious. "cut it!" y/n exclaimed jumping up and down. "yes, let me take a picture of you cutting it together." Melina smiled, getting ready. "that is a wedding thing. I'm not doing that." Natasha rolled her eyes. "Dont be a spoil sport Natasha. Besides it took you this long just to admit you love her so at this rate I won't live long to see you get married. Also technically already have a child together so you're doing this backwards anyway. Just cut the cake with her."

"She does have a point love." Wanda smiled, Natasha sighed, pretending to be annoyed but even she couldn't fight the smile as they cut the cake together.

I'm starting the year off with a cute update and giving you what you all wanted so you're welcome. Even though I'm going to miss annoying people by calling them "best friends"

I'm sorry my posts have gotten really short recently I'm working on it. I'm just running out of ideas for my books :(
