Chapter 2
WANDA POV
I rushed back to my room as fast as my feet could go, i had never really been the runner of my family, that had always Pietro. I finally reached my room, I threw open the door and flung myself on the bed. I was mortified with myself. I just had a panic attack in front of thee Black Widow. I couldn’t breathe but I couldn’t tell if that was from the running or the embarrassment.
i heard a ‘ping’ from my bedside table. I picked up my phone to see a notification from Clint ‘Hey Wands, just wanting to remind you the offer to come stay for a while still stands’
Clint had stayed at the compound for the first few weeks after Ultron to make sure i was okay. No matter how many times i assured him that i was fine, he didn’t accept it until i told him at leat 1 good thing that happened to me that day. He had left about 2 weeks ago when his wife went into her 8 months of pregnancy.
The offer couldn’t have come at a better time, after the whole throwing Sam against the wall incident everyone would begin to realise what i truly am, a monster.
I quickly accepted his offer before he could change his mind.
‘Okay great, ill book you a ticket for later today’
So with that i packed my belongings into a small duffel (I didn’t really have much), I then notified F.R.I.D.A.Y about my trip so no one would think i ran away or worse. Not that they would care.
I walked to elevator which took me to the bottom floor of the tower. I stepped out into the dreary streets of New York and signalled for a cab. Whilst sitting in the back of the yellow car, i thought of the way Natasha looked at me, like she cared. I felt slightly bad for not at least saying good bye to her, but it was too late to do anything about it.
NATASHA POV
When we got the okay on Sam, me and Steve split ways, I decided to go and check on Wanda. She really got me worried earlier, I don’t know why though. I am supposed to be mad at her for invading my mind, but I can’t help be sorry the girl, she lost everyone she loves. I could certainly relate to that.
On my way to her room, I thought about what I was going to say to her. I couldn’t just walk in and say ‘you seem to be doing okay, I’ll come back later’. So I settled on asking her what had happened during the training session, it was obvious to anyone there that she had a panic attack, but there had to be a deeper reason.
Once i got to the door I knocked lightly “Maximoff its me, can we talk for a minute?” I spoke waiting for a response, when I didn’t get one I opened the door. “Wanda?”. And to my surprise she wasn’t there. I searched the room and then her bathroom, but she was no where to be found.
“F.R.I.D.A.Y?” I spoke to the ceiling
“Yes Agent Romanov?”she replied
“Where’s Wanda?”
“Ms Maximoff is currently not the building, she informed me to tell you that she will be staying at the Barton’s farm for the foreseeable future”
“And why are you only telling me now?” I barked at the A.I
“Ms Maximoff asked if i waited until she left the premises to tell you”
“Okay thank you F.R.I.D.A.Y”I knew i could be mad at the A.I she was only doing what she was told.
I quickly messaged Clint to see if Wanda had told F.R.I.D.A.Y the truth. A few minutes later Clint confirmed that Wanda was on her way to him.
I couldn’t help bur be disappointed that the witch had had left without a goodbye, I didn’t necessarily like the young girl but i was certainly going to miss having another girl around.
