Chapter 14
I just got up and packed. I just left a note to Yelena telling her I'm gonna stay at Wanda's and will see her when class starts. I grabbed my bag and shoved my uniform, undergarments, keys, wallet and hoodie in there.
I got out, locked the door and proceeded to go to her dorm. I remebered that it was room 38 since Pepper is her roommate. I arrived there shortly and knocked on her door but not enough to wake up Pepper.
The door slowly opened and I saw Wanda standing there with puffed eyes sniffling. I get in, closing the door behind me and dropped my bag on the floor and went up to her.
"Can I touch you?" I whispered.
She weakly nodded her head as a response. I reached my hand to her face and wiped her tears.
"Oh darling you're shaking" I worriedly looked at her.
She just stood there in silence.
"Come on malysh, let's get you to bed." I said softly.
"Okay." She answered weakly.
"Can you go first, I'm just gonna get something from my bag."
She nodded again and sat down her bed. I went to my bag and took my hoodie out and handed it to her, I checked the time to see that it was 10.
"Here, you can wear it."
"Are you sure?" She questioned.
"Yep, now let's go."
She wore it in an instant, it might be a bit big on her but it suits her, I grabbed her hand and slowly led her to bed. We laid there in silence just appreciating the comforting silence between us.
"Nat?"
"Hmm?"
"Are you awake?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Can you hold me?"
"Sure come here, malysh"
I faced her and hugged her as we laid here. A few minutes go by, I felt her sniffle and found her sobbing in my arms.
"Hey hey hey, what's wrong malysh?"
"Thank you." She said
"For what darling?"
"For being here for me."
"That's what I do darling, now rest."
"No, I haven't finished telling you yet."
"Are you sure?" I asked in concern.
"Yes tasha." She reassured me.
"After Fury found us, he gave me a scolarship here and gave Peitro a part-time job to save up and go to a school. I kinda owe Fury now." She yawned.
"You're tired, let's sleep malysh."
"I still don't know what that means Tasha."
"You'll find out soon, now sleep, I can see your eyes closing." I chuckled.
"Goodnight Tasha."
"Goodnight Malysh."
I held her closer, she melted in my arms and drifted away to sleep. I just laid there admiring her as to someone this beautiful can also be this broken, then I found myself aswell slowly drifting into slumber.
---------------
Just as I was about to open my eyes and turn off my alarm, I heard a small camera shutter click that made me fully awake.
It took a minute for my eyes to adjust but I saw that Pepper took a picture and that made me remember that I was not in my room, then all of the things that happened last night suddenly came back.
I was about to move away but I felt someone else move. Wanda shifted closer to me still fast asleep. I got up and moved her a tiny bit to turn my alarm off.
"How did you even get here?" Pepper asked.
"Wanda asked me to." I said trying not to wake the person hugging me.
"Please don't send that to Yelena." I pleaded.
I looked at Pepper and threatened her to not send it to Yelena. I mean threatened is a strong word but if it's for my dignity then I must.
"Aw come on both of you look so cute cuddling together." Pepper gushed.
"I swear if send that to Yelena, I'll come for your head." I threatened once more.
"Too late I already sent it to her." She laughed as she went to her bathroom.
I groaned in frustration knowing I'll never hear the end of it. I looked at Wanda to see that she was still peacefully sleeping.
I caressed her cheek moving away a stray strand of hair, admiring how she could still be beautiful even when sleeping, and that's where I remebered we have class.
I shook Wanda lightly, making her to turn away. I laughed at her stubborness to wake up, then I had an idea.
"Wanda, darling, come on wake up we have class." I whispered in her ear causing her to jolt up.
I laughed at her sudden reaction, she just looked at me and glared.
"You're mean, I was having a wonderful dream." She huffed.
I laughed as I stood up to get my uniform. "Oh yeah? And what was that dream about?"
Her face just turned red and kept her silence.
"It's nothing." She quickly dismissed.
"Okay, you tell yourself that." I teased.
I began to undress myself, not caring if Wanda or Pepper saw. I'm not really the type to be ashamed of my body but sometimes it's the only way I can be confident enough.
I had my bra and spandex shorts on, then I felt someone, no scratch that, I felt Wanda staring at me. I turned to her to see that her face was red as my hair.
"Like what you see, darling?" I teased.
I swore her face turned more red, she turned away and mumbled a small maybe, after that I got in my skirt and start to put my shirt on.
Wanda stood up from her bed, she walked to her closet to get her uniform and placed them on her bed. She grabbed a towel and went inside her bathroom to take a shower.
I heard the other bathroom open to see that Pepper already changed in her uniform. She looked at the bed confused where the other person went.
"Where's Wanda?"
"Bathroom." A short and simple response.
"Was she ok last night? I swore I heard her crying" She said with a concered look.
"Look Pepper I want to tell you why but it's not my story to tell, I'm sorry."
"It's ok, I just wanted to know if she's fine."
"Yeah she's ok I guess."
"That's great."
