Wanda Maximoff and Natasha Romanoff Imagines

You had a choice (Wanda)

This is a request for Carter-96 I really hope you like this one!

The day you had been brought into the Avengers compound was a shock to Wanda. She remembered her time at Hydra with you clearly and she couldn't help the immense guilt that settled in her stomach as you made eye contact with her. While Wanda had volunteered for the experiments, you had been taken against your will. You had both been subjected to the same experiments and the only differences in your powers were the colours that they manifested themselves in. Wanda's were a bright red, but yours were a deep blue. Wanda had known that you might react badly to her presence, but she hadn't realised just how much contempt you had for her. This made it near impossible for her to get along with you. Your snappy and sarcastic attitude infuriated Wanda, especially when all she wanted to do was have a normal conversation with you. Eventually, Wanda had snapped and demanded to know what your problem was. She wasn't shocked when you responded angrily with "YOU HAD A CHOICE WANDA, I DIDN'T" but that didn't mean your hatred of her hurt any less. At a loss for words, Wanda just stared at you stunned, and at her lack of response your shoulders slumped and you huffed before locking yourself away in your room. Wanda didn't see you for a few days after your outburst, and she had started to become increasingly concerned, especially when you had stopped attending meal times. Wanda knew she needed to check on you, so apprehensively she made her way to your room later that night to try and have a normal conversation with you. What she heard when she approached your room though was not what she was expecting. She could hear you tossing and turning while muttering in your sleep and before she knew it, you had started to scream. She was all to familiar with the nightmares you endured because of Hydra, and she knew in that moment that she had to help you. So without hesitation she entered your room, and made her way over to your distressed form. She gently tried to coax you from your slumber, and as she tried to shake your arm, you bolted upright in fear. You fell off of your bed in a panic to get away from Wanda, but she was by your side in an instant. You were trembling, and Wanda did what she thought would help you feel better because it provided her with comfort when she was going through the same thing. She gently lead you back into your bed and held you close. You were too afraid to fight her and the warmth that her embrace brought you was surprisingly comforting. Eventually the gentle rhythm of her heart beat was enough to calm you down and you nervously chewed your bottom lip as you thought of what to say. "Why are you helping me? I was so mean to you" you whispered nervously. Wanda sighed at your words before saying "because I understand Y/N. I know what you went through and just because it was by choice doesn't mean it was any less terrifying or painful. If I could go back in time then I would never have volunteered but I can't change what happened in the past, I can only look forward". You nodded softly at her words before laying in comfortable silence with her until she shifted to move and get out of the bed. You immediately missed the warmth and comfort she brought you and you couldn't help but question where she was going. She smiled gently before saying "I'm going to make us some tea Y/N". You smiled softly at her as she exited your room and you released a shaky breath you hadn't even realised you were holding in. You felt bad for being so dismissive of Wanda and you had never thought about it from her point of view before, so now you knew she had struggled in the same way you had, you couldn't help but feel like you had more in common than you originally thought. "Your thoughts are very loud dorogoy (sweetheart). You have nothing to feel bad about Y/N so please don't fret about it okay". You blushed at being caught thinking about her but nodded acknowledging her words. She handed you your tea and you sat in a comfortable silence enjoying the hot drink until you both drifted off to sleep.
You had assumed that Wanda helping you would be a one off, but you couldn't have been more wrong. She would frequently stay with you at night to support you through the worst of your nightmares and you found yourself doing the same for her. You would also now seek each other out during the day, missing each others company when you were apart. After Wanda had gone on a particularly tough mission, she came back bruised and battered, and as she had fought to ensure herself and the team came back alive, she had realised just how much you meant to her. The thought of not having you in her life made her heart ache in an unbearable way. So instead of going straight to her room to clean up, she made a beeline for you. She barged in startling you, but she didn't stop to take in your confused expression as she was to focused on following through with her intentions. You stood up from your bed and she stood right in front of you staring intensely into your eyes before whispering "yebat' eto (fuck it)" as she brought her hands to your face to pull you in for a searing kiss. You were amazed at how soft her lips were against yours and you couldn't help but place your hands on her waist to bring her impossibly closer. You knew in that moment as butterflies erupted in your stomach that you could kiss Wanda forever and feelings that you hadn't even dared acknowledge burst through you and made your heart soar. Eventually, much to your dismay Wanda pulled away from you, but didn't make any move to reduce the distance between you. She merely rested her forehead against yours before saying "I should have done that weeks ago". You could only nod as you tried to recompose yourself after becoming so flustered. It didn't help when Wanda moved her head to your shoulder and began to lightly kiss at your neck. The sensation made you shiver and Wanda could only chuckle at your reaction. When she eventually looked back into your eyes, they were illuminated red, and you knew immediately what she wanted to do, so you used your powers to communicate in the most intimate way you knew how, through your minds. You showed Wanda how much she meant to you and she showed you the same things back. The images that flashed in both of your minds made both of you smile before leaning in to connect your lips once again. You both realised that you weren't just connected by the mind stone and your powers anymore, your connection ran deeper. You loved each other and nothing would ever tear you apart.
