Chapter four:
Wanda was awoken the next morning with the sound of the Guardian's of the Galaxy ship taking off and had a screaming headache. She really did enjoy herself last night but it was too close for comfort. Wanda promised herself that she wouldn't open up to anyone. She can not let herself hurt anyone ever again. It's fine talking to Sam and Bucky cause they are basically morons who don't look past her hard exterior. I was different and wanted to get to know her. To see what's behind the front. But Wanda couldn't let that happen. Not again. The last person that did that was Vision. Everyone that ever got close to Wanda or Scarlet Witch seemed to die.
First her parents and Vision. She promised to train me. But she also kept her distance away from me so that I didn't get hurt or killed.
Wanda then got dressed and tied her long auburn hair into a ponytail that reached her shoulders she then left her room and went down for breakfast.
"Good morning." Said Sam Wilson. Wanda just looked at him puzzled.
"It was nice to see you loosen up last night." Replied Bucky Barnes.
"I promise you that will be the last time." Said Wanda as she sat down and rolled her eyes at them.
"Ah come on. It was nice seeing you sing out of the tone as it may be even dancing with our most promising recruit." Replied Sam Wilson while smirking.
"Right that's it I'm going to my room. You two are unbearable." Replied Wanda.
Wanda then took her food and gave both of them a glare. Turning around she bumped into someone. "We've got to stop bumping into each other I thought I was the clumsy one." I said. Wanda had planned on eating breakfast in her room not wanting to hear it. Good thing she was too hungover to care. I then began to laugh seeing the cereal she had spilt all over me. Those laughs were followed by Sam and Bucky Barnes.
"I am sorry. The guy's were being annoying. I was going back to my room to eat and then this happened." Replied Wanda.
"Hey no harm done. I look pretty good in black and fruit loops running down all over me. Don't you think?" I said.
"Very." Replied Wanda then she walked back to her room to clean up her pants and shoes.
I went back to my room to change after being decorated in breakfast. If Wanda aka Scarlet Witch wasn't so beautiful I'd be pissed. I take my stuff to the laundry room to get washed. Whilst I'm doing laundry I realized the shirt that I had replaced it with had a stain so I decided to chuck that in the wash too leave me shirtless for training. As I set the wash I hear Wanda I then used the laundry basket to cover myself up.
"You know your meant to put clothes on before doing the washing." Said Wanda.
"Yeah I'm sorry the shirt that I had put on had a stain on it so I decided to put it into the wash too. I didn't realize anyone would be washing." I replied. God you made yourself look like a idiot in front of her. Your probably trying to impress the girl who's probably not looking for a relationship right now.
"Hey it was a joke. Don't worry about it." Replied Wanda. I tried to read her mind. "Don't you even think about it. You really need to stop trying to do that."
"I'm sorry I just wanted to get to know you, I'm really good at reading people but with you I just can't. I don't understand it's like one minute you totally forget that I exist and the next your singing and dancing with me, I'm sorry it's not my place to expect anything from you other than you to mentor me." I told her even though I was kicking myself for how honest I was.
"Wait." Replied Wanda. But before she could utter a word I was already gone. It didn't what she did she felt like she was still hurting people. Why can't she just be honest with herself? To let me see her just a little bit. I could be her friend or ally. Nothing more. Wanda then made her way to my room and knocked on my door.
"Travis can we talk?" She said.
I then opened the door. "I'm going to train with Bucky." I replied coldly zooming past Wanda and headed to the training room.
I clearly didn't want to speak with Wanda so she knocked on Monica's door and asked if she wanted to train. They then walked down to the training room. As they walk by I didn't even stare at Wanda who was trying her best to get me to look at her.
"Today we are going on avoiding hits." Said Wanda. Monica nodded her head and they started to duel. Monica had greatly improved she was blocking every web sent her way. Monica knew when to fly and dodge. As her conference build's up she starts to use Wanda's red chaos magic against her. All Wanda could do was focus on me. I was stronger definitely but was not skilled in combat. Bucky was hitting me hard. Suddenly Wanda was thrown backwards and hit her head and clutched her side. She could see everyone charging towards her.
"Wanda. Are you okay?" Said Bucky and Wanda blacked out.
Wanda sat in pain listening to Bucky and Sam messing around with Peter. Peter had gone to get Wanda something to eat as she hated hospital food. Wanda as loosing hope whenever she saw the door open and to her surprise it was me walking through the door. Her face then lit up.
"Hey. How are you doing? I would've been here sooner but I've been in the wars today. First I got covered breakfast then I got the shit beaten out of me by Bucky. So I basically couldn't move for a few hours. I hope you understand." I said and held out Dunkin donuts. Wanda 's face then lit up even more.
"I'm even better now that I food that's edible." Replied Wanda.
"I'll just leave you and your food alone then." I said before leaving the room.
"No don't go... Stay, please." Replied Wanda which made me smile.
"Oi idiots. You two go back to HQ I'll look after her and not give her a headache." I said. Sam and Bucky then left the room.
"Thank you." Replied Wanda.
"You're welcome. Now are you going to share some of those donuts I'm injured too you know." I said and Wanda just laughed at before handing me a cup of coffee and the donuts.
