❝BEING DEEPLY LOVED BY SOMEONE GIVES YOU STRENGTH WHILE LOVING SOMEONE DEEPLY GIVES YOU COURAGE.❞
–LAO TZUUPON HEARING PIETRO'S NAME, Cara ran straight for Steve's motorcycle. She hated this: her thoughts had come true. Pietro woke up and more than likely, he didn't know where he was or what had happened. Although Wanda was there with him, the Sokovian girl still didn't trust the other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents or the Avengers. Cara and Wanda only trusted Vision, Hawkeye, and Steve. Unfortunately, Steve was with her and Hawkeye had left a while ago.
"Cara, he'll be fine," Steve said. Apparently he noticed her impatience or how much tighter she squeezed his abdomen. She started to loosen her grip on him. "I'm sure Stark is making sure he's okay."
"That's what I'm afraid of," Cara admitted as they stopped at a red light. "I know Stark means well but look what happened last time. He tried to protect the world but instead, thousands lost their lives to his bombs, including the Maximoff's parents."
"You know that wasn't his fault," he reasoned.
"Still his fault." Steve revved the motorcycle and drove away as the light turned green.
The two sat in silence, the only noise the sound of the cars and motorcycle. The moment the motorcycle stopped in front of the Avenger's base, Cara sprinted inside the garage and through the door. Stopping just a foot away past the door, she listened. She could hear the low chattering of the agents around her but on the right, she heard the quickened footsteps of agents. Instantly, she darted down the right and hesitated on which hallways to go down, hearing some yelling on both sides.. She went down several hallways as the yelling got louder.
Agents stood near a doorway as Cara neared, hearing Wanda curse in Russian multiple times. "Chert voz'mi! Gde Cara, kogda vy nuzhdayetes' v ney?" The brunette turned and through the agents, noticed the worried blonde girl on the other side. "Cara!" she called. "Let her through!" (Damn it! Where's Cara when you need her?)
The agents stepped aside and let her pass as Cara ran to Wanda's side. "What happened? Steve told me it was about Pietro and that's all I got."
Cara noticed that her cheeks were now tear stained. "I was just reading, Vision had left to go get some food for me, and next thing I know, Pietro's dashing across the room, ramming into almost everything. I couldn't calm him down and his thoughts were quicker than I've ever felt. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to hurt him."
"It's fine, he'll be okay. What's happening now?"
"Some agents had to... 'put him under' as they put it. They actually just hit in the face with a gun," Wanda growled. "Now they're running some tests on him."
"How long will that take?" Cara rubbed her arms.
"I don't know. Who knows?" Wanda took Cara's hand and led her to other room, all the Avengers against the wall. Cara noticed that Steve had been right behind her the entire time.
"He's going to be, Cara," the Black Widow said as she walked up to the blonde, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. She pulled the girl to a chair by the door, sitting her down and kneeling so she was the same height as her. "They're just gonna run a few tests then he'll wake up in half an hour. I promise you and Wanda will be the first people to see him."
Cara nodded.

'Half an hour' my ass, Cara thought. As it turns out, half an hour turned into almost two hours and Cara was going to burst. She kept asking the doctors when he would wake up and they said they were still running tests. What tests could they still be running? By then, she was almost close to threatening someone. She had actually punched the wall, making it crack.
Finally, after what they thought was forever, a doctor came out to inform Wanda and Cara that he was now awake. When the words left his mouth, Cara dashed into the other room, tears streaming down her face. She gasped when she saw Pietro's state.
His hair was tangled and a little bit longer that when she first saw it. His darting blue eyes had looked at everything for a second before moving to something else. His arms were strained to his sides to keep him from running off and into things. Pietro's face and body were covered in several bruises, like small inklings of purple and black decorating his skin.
"Pietro," Cara cried and tears fell again. She rushed to his side.
"Cara," he whispered. He tugged on his restraints and in response, Cara undid them. He wrapped his arms around her body and tugged her close as she cried into his shoulder. He kissed her several times on the head. "I missed you so much, lyubov'." (Love)
Pietro pulled her away, cupping her face. "Ya lyublyu tebya tak sil'no, Cara."
She gave a small laugh between the sobs. "I don't know what that means."
"I love you so much, Cara," he translated, smiling at her. He cupped her face and smashed his lips to hers. He kissed her lips like it was air and he couldn't breathe. The two pulled away, gasping for breath.
"I can't believe it," Cara sobbed. She cupped his face and spoke through her tears, "I was so terrified that I had lost you. Please don't you dare do anything like that again, please."
"I promise you, lyubov'. You won't ever lose me again," Pietro murmured. (Love)
"Pietro!" Wanda shrieked as the two pulled apart. She ran to her brother's side and tacked him in a hug. "You idiot! You're so stupid and idiotic! I can't believe you!" Wanda yelled as she cried. The younger Maximoff continued to cry into her twin's shoulder as he rubbed her back, whispering comforting words in her ear.
Pietro pulled Cara into the hug and together they cried; not in pain, but in happiness and joy.
