Trepidation || Wanda Maximoff

32|Goddess

I gently go to knock on the door but it is opened as soon as I do, I smile as I look into the green eyes I was met with. Wanda smiles in return "you should be more careful Darling, I could have knocked and hit you in the face" I say but my eyes go wide as I realise what I called her, Wanda bushes and smiles adorably. I sigh relieved. Wanda looks into my eyes, grey meets green and we both smile.

"You ready? We have a little while to walk but its only ten minutes" I inform her, Wanda smiles and leans against my shoulder smiling happily. I take in her appearance, she is wearing some black jeans and a black top with a green jacket and some rings on her fingers. She looks so hot. How did I manage to even be in the presence of such a goddess?

we walk out of the compound I fiddle with my hands nervously hoping she likes what I have done. Wanda grabs both of my hands, she looks my in the eyes and smiles "Riley, you have nothing to worry about, I really don't mind what we do as long as I'm doing it with you I know that sounds very cliche, i think thats the word, but it's true. As long as its not something stupidly ridiculous but I would do almost anything if you were with me" Wanda tells me gently, I smile and hug her.

"I am a very anxious person, I will always be nervous but thank you" I respond, Wanda smiles brightly, even though we technically live together we don't really get much alone time with how many chaotic people are in the compound.

"Wow, this is amazing, this must have taken you ages" Wanda tells me when we arrive at the picnic setup.

"Well I wanted it to be nice, it didn't take that long but I spent time on it, if I didn't it wouldn't have been perfect and you deserve perfect. I was thinking we could watch the sunset and it seems the sun is setting" I state, Wanda smiles and looks to the sky, its lit up by a bright orange, some gentle pink as well. I sit down on one of the seats and gesture for Wanda to sit next to me which she does.

I take the food out of the basket and put some of it on the table making sure to leave some spares in the basket if anyone wants anymore, Wanda smiles gratefully and takes a sandwich, which I do too. 

"This is so well thought out Riley" Wanda informs me, I nod.

"I wanted it to be right, if I didn't put in much effort than I wouldn't be a very good date to have, I will admit I did forget to buy some of the things so ended up having to run to the store quickly to buy them" I admit, Wanda laughs.

"Don't laugh at me, I was preoccupied in my walking and forgot" I state making Wanda just laugh more, I frown jokingly but end up laughing too, we both eventually stop laughing and sit in silence watching the sun set.

I jump when I hear a loud crunch but turn to Wanda, she has bitten into a crisp loudly while, I sigh in relief as Wanda just smile sheepishly at me. She knows what she has done. I frown at her pretending to be mad but cant keep the act going as looking at her just makes me smile.

An hour passes and the sun has gone down, I turn the fairy lights on and Wanda looks around confused but that confusion fades to happiness when she realises what I did. I pull a planet over us and move the table to the left side as Wanda is on my right. "You know, Kung fu panda has some deep shit, like the quote from the old turtle 'yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift that is why it is called the present' how deep is that for the youngsters who will watch that movie" I tell Wanda the random though that popped into my head, Wanda is chuckling lightly at my statement "sorry that was random" I add embarrassed.

"No I think its true, that was deep" Wanda replies, I smile gratefully "I will admit it was a little but random, but I liked the fact and quote. I have never heard of Kung fu panda before though" she adds, I playfully gasp and open my mouth in shock.

"You have never watched Kung fu panda! There are three movies and they are all a part of my childhood, we are watching them sometime" I say, Wanda nods smiling widely.

I decide now is the time to ask the question i have been dreading to "Wanda" I state, looking into her eyes "will you be my girlfriend. I know we haven't been on many dates but we do kinda live together and we know each other well and I really like you, you make me feel alive, you give me purpose, happiness and a fire within me. And Wanda, If i had a single flower for everytime I think of you, I could walk in my garden forever. Wanda to be your friend was all I ever wanted but to be your lover is all I ever dreamed, If you want to wait a little bit longer thats fine and I will do as you which but I wanted to ask-" I ramble.

"Riley, I would love to be your girlfriend, I was hoping you would ask, every time I think of you I end up having a stupid grin on my face, you brighten up my day Riley, with your random thoughts and your smile, no matter how hard I try and think about something else my thoughts go back to you, always, erm and that can be incredibly distracting" Wanda tells me cheerfully, My eyes flicker to her lips and back to her eyes again. We both lean forwards until out lips are inches away from each other's.

"Can i kiss you?" I ask Wanda in a whisper.

"Yes, please do" she responds, I smile and lean forwards and our lips meet. Her lips were soft, warm and gentle, the smell of her beautiful scent was dizzying, butterflies danced in my stomach, this feeling is like nothing I have never felt before ands it's something I cannot put into words, its like dancing on the moon or swinging through the stars. Like an uncontrollable fire, dancing, swaying, sizzling on top of a calm ocean surface defying all odds and knowledge, breaking the rules and doing something wild, extraordinary, powerful. The kiss was gentle and kind but it will stay in my mind for a long time. Me and Wanda break apart smiling, our lips still inches away from each other, I peck Wanda on the lips and lean back, she smiles and cuddles against me and we both look to the stars smiling widely.

"Thank you Riley, You are really amazing" Wanda says

"Tis you m'lady who is a goddess, I don't think I can quite compare to that" I state, Wanda blushes and hides her face in my neck. I smile and chuckle lightly.

"Come on lets head back, its getting late and I don't want you to miss out on your Beauty sleep" I tell Wanda, she nods and takes her hand in mine and interlocking our fingers.

"Thank you for tonight Riley it has been truly magical" Wanda informs me

"I think it is you who has made the night magical Wanda, just by you being here, but thank you. You're my girlfriend" I say with a dizzy smile on my face as I remember, Wanda chuckles.

"Yes and your my girlfriend" Wanda replies, I smile and bring her hand up to my lips and kiss it then continue walking, Wanda with a blush on her face.
