'Fools Rush In'

'Cold.' Part 17.

You three walk over to the dining room table and patiently sit. Your hands lightly grip the folder as your eyes lock onto your left hand, where your rings sit. You hear the sounds of feet rapidly descending the stairs and keep your eyes low, trying to will the tears to go away. Trying to will yourself to be strong.

"Detka?" Wanda whispers out and you keep your head lowered, you knew as soon as you heard her voice you'd start to cry. You take a deep breath, wipe the few fallen tears from your eyes and lift your head up. Your eyes immediately catch hers, much like Natasha's they seem void of happiness.

"I uh-" you clear your throat "I have something for you, for you both." You slide the folder across the table and Natashas eyes grow wide "please." She begs "don't...don't file for divorce, I swear to you Y/N..I-I-" "it's not divorce papers Natasha." You say with a bit of bite to your voice.

You let out a sigh. "Just, please open it." Wanda takes the folder from in front of Nat and opens it, pulling the paper out half way, she looks up at you in confusion "our marriage certificate?" You nod your head "just pull it all the way out, please." You feel Charlie and Lena's hands both reach for yours, interlocking fingers once again. Theirs squeeze yours on the table and Nats jaw tenses at the sight.

You're her wife.

So to see you being consoled by two women who aren't her or Wanda has her feeling an anger she didn't know she could feel towards her own sister. "Wh-what is this?!" Wandas lip trembles as she takes a look at the marriage certificate in her hand. Natasha's head darts to the side as she looks at Wanda's tear stained face.

She gently pulls the certificate from the younger womans hands and Nats eyes widen. "I guess we were so eager to leave the chapel we didn't even make sure we got all the correct signatures we needed." Your tears fall down your cheeks "looks like we were never technically married."

Natasha looks from the certificate back to you and then to Wanda with tears steadily flowing down her cheeks "Noooo" she whispers out "Th-this doesn't change how I feel about you, about either of you." "And the whore you had between your legs?" Charlie seethes out. You can see out of the corner of your eye the way Lena's jaw tenses, her hand gently tightening around yours "What. Whore?" She grits through clenched teeth.

"What? What's going on? Somebody fill me in here." Wanda ask looking from you to Charlie then to Natasha. "What is Charlie talking about Tasha?" Wanda's bottom lip trembles "Maria." Natasha whispers out after a few moments of silence in the room. Your eyes shoot to Wanda's. She said Natasha would never jeopardize her relationship with you both, she was so sure of her words.

"What? Natasha please tell me you didn't." Wanda pleads quietly "I don't know what I did or didn't do. We were talking about the liquor license and then she got closer to me at some point." Natasha's head lowered as she let out a silent sob "I don't even remember her between my legs, I just remember looking up and seeing Y/N."

"That's convenient, don't you think? Can't take responsibility for cheating on your wives that you claim you don't remember." Charlie stands up from her seat "You don't deserve her." She glares Nat down "neither of you deserve her." She looks at Wanda. "Don't think I didn't hear about how you treated her, how you told her she was too much, too clingy."

You sit in your seat crying, reliving one of the worst days of your life. "both of you" Lena whispers out, head lowered before she's raising it "Charlie's right. You don't deserve her." Lena stands up along with Charlie "come my malen'koye solnyshko" Lena holds her hand out. "No." Natasha whispers "please....don't."

"I'll have Charlie and Lena come gather the rest of my things later this week. I'd appreciate it if you didn't contact me. I will however stay in touch with both of you in regards to doctors appointments regarding the twins. You will still be apart of their lives even if you are not apart of mine." You stand from your seat and stay standing still.
