The Three Mates

The two mates exited the elevator hand in hand and headed to the room a few doors down and across from the door that led to their own room. Originally it was just another empty girls room, but when Y/n had arrived it had quickly become hers. After everything that y/n had been through, Natasha and Wanda had made it clear that she could have her own safe space to heal in. They wanted to make sure she knew that they would always be there and wait for her to be ready instead of forcing her to do anything she was uncomfortable with. 

After y/n had started seeing someone, they had made the suggestion of using music and art to help y/n express herself. That lead to y/n’s love for art and music, it had really helped her more than the two alphas had ever thought to be possible. Then after y/n had healed enough and started allowing herself to love and be loved, she had moved in with them and together they helped her convert her room into her personal art space. They had taken out all the furniture and brought in new shelving for her supplies. When the room had finally been done, they had surprised her by stocking her up with anything and everything an artist could want from every color in and under the rainbow to every canvas size imaginable. She had been so grateful and still was. Now there were paintings scattered all throughout the compound including a posed and paid for portrait of Stark which everyone had loved but rolled their eyes at at the same time because, only Tony.

Together Nat and Wanda entered the room to find Y/n bathed in the light of the windows and working on canvas supported by an easel. She was beautiful..

They stood there for a minute entranced as she worked. Only when she turned around to clean up after herself did they snap out of it.

Y/n swung around with an undisguised smile on her face when her alphas cleared their throats. “Yes, just in time! I just finished my painting, let me just clean up my brushes” she pointed to the dirty brushes she was holding up in her hand.

Wanda chuckled, waving a glowing red hand leaving the brushes better than new and y/n’s eyes wide. It didn't mater how many times she used her magic, her omega was always impressed. “ now you don't have to clean them '' Wanda stepped forward with her alpha, both intent on seeing their mate’s late work. “so what did you finish painting?”

“Wait!” y/n shouted arms up. “ don't come any closer, it's a surprise it just needs to dry”

“ Okay okay “ the widow relented, unconsciously bouncing on her feet “ we won’t come any closer, but can we see it tomorrow after apology day?” The older alpha was really excited about this painting; Y/n had promised that she would make them a piece and this was supposed to be the one that was meant for them. 

“Deal!” y/n laughed making her way over to them with open arms, snuggling into both of them as they met. When they made it down stairs again y/n was purring in their arms as the elevator doors opened. 

The three mates made their way back into the theater room where all the food was laid out and waiting for them with the rest of the pack crowded around.there was so much food, Sesame chicken, orange chicken, butter chicken, hot wings, Chinese, cheeseburgers, corn dogs, hot dogs, pizza, lo mein, rice, on his, chips, queso, charcuterie board, rain naan, hummus,  popcorn (obviously) , gummy bears, m&ms, skittles, rainbow licorice strings, pop tarts(Thor was going to be jealous when he came back.), pop rocks, and there were even some chocolate covered pretzels.

Everything was so perfect…

 And then y/n stopped dead in her tracks and the distressed smell of omega permeated the space around them. 

 Nat and Wanda both swung around as their hands reached out to her. “Y/n y/n what’s wrong?” 

The pack was also worried and let loose calming pheromones alongside those of her alphas into the air, only to be rooted to their spots by their alpha’s hearted glare. The last thing y/n needed was everyone invading her space in a time like this.

The ever perceptive widow was the first to notice what was wrong. Y/n’s gaze was locked on something, she immediately followed it and zeroed in on the Pizza. The picture of a big domino was plastered on the box, that was the problem. She quickly locked eyes with wanda “it's the pizza box, change it”

Wanda quickly changed the appearance of the boxes leaving them with a red circle under the white letters that read out ‘pizza’ on top, but still y/n stared on. 

Y/n hated dominos and the alphas still didn't know why but they had never pushed the issue, they knew y/n would tell them why when she was ready. They had thrown away their old set of dominos after the first time y/n had broken down during her first pack game night, but they never expected it to be a problem again. They were obviously wrong…

The two alphas knew y/n was stuck in some memory but they didn't know how to get her out, they didn't know if even making contact was crossing a boundary or not right now but they couldn't just do nothing either.

 Hesitantly anda raised a glowing red hand, but stopped short as her alpha placed her hand on wrist.

“Wait, let me try first” the red head knew that touching was probably a no, but she knew for sure that magic was a bigger no no. She increased her phermonal output and cupped y/n’s face bringing their foreheads together. “Please y/n come back to us” when nothing happened she sighed and closed her eyes tightly. It wasn't working but using magic on her without permission would send y/n’s progress backwards. She didn't know what to do for her previous mate.

Yelena slowly rose to her feet not wanting to aggravate the worried alphas while they were unable to help their y/n. “Sestra, can I try something” when she saw her sister nod, she acted quickly , she knew she was probably…definitely going to get in trouble for what she was about to do but if she did it quickly she could make an escape from their wrath. She stopped by her sister and looked her in the eyes “ don’t worry I got this”

“What are you-“ before the two alphas could react, Yelena pulled out a pin from nowhere and poked y/n in the arm before sprinting away.

Y/n rubbed her arm, not at all happy “Ow what the heck!”she yelled, diverting her alphas’ heated attention right back on to her “ you can’t just go poking people Yel!”

“Y/n!” 

“Detka!”

In the blink of an eye y/n found herself engulfed in a bone crushing hug. She easily returned the embrace but tilted her head and furrowed her brows. “What… what just happened?”

As the two alphas checked my/n over, Peter took the opportunity to answer her question “You were stuck in some sort of flashback or something, are you okay?”

Bucky took in her fearful yet confused expression. “You’re looking a little pale” 

“Maybe you should lay down and let your alphas take care of you” Pepper suggested, holding Tony and Morgan just a tiny bit tighter.

“Y yeah that’s” y/n looked down at her hands and realized how badly she was shaking “that’s probably a good idea” she couldn't remember what she had seen because Helena had distracted her so thoroughly, but she knew it was bad. She could feel her body reacting to it now that the adrenaline was wearing off.

Without warning y/n found herself in the arms of her redheaded alpha as her younger alpha headed towards the food to make her a plate… They were officially in what y/n liked to call their ‘Take care and provide mode’... She could work with that.
