"hi! i loved blame, your writing is so good! since you left it at kind of a cliffhanger, can you maybe write a part 2 to it?"
Summary: With the hope of Pietro alive, your mind is spinning. You still don't want to see Clint, but maybe Wanda can help you out.
Author's Note: TBH I didn't even realize it was a cliffhanger but I'm actually really glad that this is continued because it turned out so cute.

"Hey," Your uncle Clint walked up to you.
"I'm training, please don't bother me." You told him.
"Just listen, alright?" Clint asked you, but you continued to shoot everything you could that was in this room.
"I'm training." You repeated.
"I know you're going through a tough time." He said, but you cut him off.
"Look, I don't need a lecture. I'm trying to clear my head and I am an adult. I can handle this. I'm doing just fine." You told him, shooting another target.
"You just heard a few weeks ago that Pietro could be alive, I just wanted to make sure your emotions are stable." Clint said, trying to get closer to you.
"I said, I'M FINE!" You yelled, pulling back your arrow harder than before, and shooting out a light.
Clint sighed. "I'll tell Tony the light needs fixed."
As soon as Clint left the room and you were sure the door was shut, you threw your bow a few feet away and dropped to your knees. You brought your hands up to your face and covered your eyes, beginning to shed a few tears.
You kept telling yourself that you were fine, but deep down, you were going crazy.
After a few months had passed you were finally starting to accept that your boyfriend was gone, and you'd have to move on. You'd stay mad at your uncle and continue to blame him. But now, hearing that Pietro could be back, everything in your head was messed up.
"Oh my gosh." You heard Wanda's voice. "I knew I heard noise, I did not know it was your mind. What is going on?" You asked.
You sighed, wiping the few tears away.
"Did Tony tell you?" You asked and Wanda nodded, realizing what this was all about. "It's driving me insane, I love Pietro, Wanda, I really do. And I thought I was never going to get him back...but now, there's a chance. And Clint, he keeps talking to me. I'm still mad at him." You sighed.
"It was not really Clint's fault, though, was it?" She asked. "I thought Pietro chose to save him?"
You shrugged. "I was still mad that he didn't just stay on the ship and get to the hellicarrier safely, it was so dangerous." You said quietly.
Wanda offered her hand to you. "Would you like to go on a trip with me?" She asked.
You grabbed her hand and she helped pull you up. "To where?"
She smiled. "Oh, Dr. Cho's lab, of course."

The easy part was getting Tony to take you to the lab in the jet. The hard part was doing it so no one else knew what was going on. Technically, you and Wanda weren't even suppose to know that Helen Cho and Bruce Banner have been working on saving Pietro for the last few months.
Tony was all for taking you and Wanda there. He knew how much you two miss Pietro, he could see the love for him in your eyes, and how much Wanda hurt after he was gone. Maybe having Pietro back would make the both of you happier, and maybe you'd get along with Clint again.
Tony said he couldn't stay, as he had work to do. But he said to call him when you needed picked up.
You were dropped off a few blocks away from Dr. Cho's lab, so you and Wanda walked together hoping that it would be all you had imagined.
You missed out on coming to her lab before, as it was when you were still recovering from the nightmare Wanda gave you when she was working with Ultron. But Wanda was here before, so she had some idea of what to do.
After being let in, you and Wanda began to roam around in hopes to run into someone who knew you. For the most part, all you really heard was another language you didn't understand.
The first few floors were a bust. You'd look through the little peep holes to see what was going on, and there was no sign of Pietro.
You realized that every door was shut. It was kind of weird, but for a lab, it made sense. But up a few floors, one door was open.
"Dammit." You heard someone say, after a loud bang.
You looked to Wanda, and you both decided that was enough reason to see what was going on in that one room.
You approached the door and opened it a little wider.
"Come on; you can do this." The voice said. "Do it for them."
You stood at the door with Wanda and stayed quiet. There he was, running around in circles. Running into walls, and punch bags, and mirrors.
A tear went down your cheek. He was alive.
You and Wanda agreed to stay quiet. You just wanted to observe, see how he was doing on his own.
"I really need some shoes I do not run out of." He muttered to himself. "Add that to the list of stuff I need from Banner."
He started to run again. It was paining you, not talking, hugging, or kissing him. He's been 'dead' for months, and to see him alive again, it gave you back the hope that you had lost. And you could feel yourself, deep down, starting to realize that blaming Clint was not the best way to cope with everything.
But you pushed that away, and would save that for a different conversation later.
"When should we approach him?" Wanda whispered to you.
"Not yet; I want to hear him ramble again, like he always did." You told her, quietly.
After running out of breath from training, Pietro walked over to one of the mirrors. He looked at himself, breathing heavily. Then, he pulled up the side of his shirt. You saw all his stitches from the wounds. "I miss them so much." He started to tell himself. "Once I can run perfectly again, I will run across the world to see my sister and my love; I want them to know I am okay." He started to ramble. "God, why does this all have to be a secret?"
"Wanda? (Y/N)?" You heard a voice come from behind you.
"That is who I am talking about, yes, Banner." Pietro sighed at himself. "Stop eavesdropping on me."
"What are you guys doing here?" Bruce whispered. "Tony wasn't supposed to tell anyone..."
"You really think he would have been able to keep him from us much longer? We had to see him." You told Bruce when both of you turned around.
"That reminds me, Green Guy, I need a new pair of sho-" Pietro stopped dead in his tracks. He stopped speaking , and walking, and blinking. He just stared at you and Wanda.
Your face broke out into a huge smile, and he ran over to you both. "You are here!" He held one of your shoulders with one hand, and one of Wanda's with the other. "How did you know I was alive?"
"Bruce told Tony. Tony told us." You said, another tear going down your face.
"Awe, draga, do not cry. I am alive." He pulled you into a hug, and when he pulled away just far enough, he snuck a kiss onto your lips.
Wanda wasn't saying anything. She was just standing there, with the happiest smile on her face, and crying. "Pietro..." She said once he looked over to her.
Pietro hugged Wanda as well. Then he pulled you back into the hug. "I have missed you two more than the world; I am so sorry for leaving you."
"I'm just glad you're alive." You cried into his shoulder.
Later that day, you texted Clint a photo of you, Wanda, and Pietro. He seemed amazed that he was still alive. You also apologized; hopefully, you could get back the bond that you had once before.
But later, you and Wanda sat and watched movies all throughout the night with Pietro, making up for lost time.
