No one had ever understood Wanda quite like Vision. Of course, he was also the only one that could see inside her head, so there was that. It was at the same time entirely exhilarating and horribly terrifying. Wanda wasn't used to opening up to people in general, let alone ones she had just met.

There was just something about this, though. Vision not only saw into her mind, but felt and understood exactly how she saw and experienced the world. She had tried to explain the things happening in her head to Pietro on many occasions, both before and after the experiments, but words consistently failed her. With Vision, doing so was simply unnecessary. Explanations were not needed. She'd never before felt like anyone could understand how exactly her mind worked, but he instinctively did.

He seemed to enjoy being that close to her, or so she read when she reached out for his mind in return. There was a very special and unbreakable bond between them; the likes of which terrified Wanda more than anything in the world.

She had been "here" before. The feeling wasn't exactly new. Everything in her existence reaching out, clinging to another person like they were a life preserver and she was drowning. There were times she'd mistaken this feeling for love, and it cost her dearly. But this time was different; she knew it even before Vision emerged from Dr. Cho's cradle. She'd denied it for so long, but knew that she loved Vision in ways that made absolutely no sense, but were nonetheless true.
