I'm back! Yay or nay? In this fanfic I will center on Wanda and how she feels about the whole deal but there will be some chapters where I will focus on the rest of the Avengers, yes everyone. I just can't stand the idea of having my ship see eachother again in 2 years no way! All pairings are cannon but there will be cute Romanogers scenes, and of course ScarletVision, but it will be slow, everyone will bond again but at their time. If you have any comments, suggestions or doubts please let me know. I hope you'll stay with me for another adventure!...jeez that sounded extremely cheesy…anyways read! I don't own anything :'(
"Now what?" she asked
Sam snorted "We're fugitives" he reminded her
Wanda nodded "Exactly, now what?"
They were in the back of the quinjet while Clint was piloting with the help of Steve.
"You can all stay in the farm for a couple of days" Clint told them
"Thanks man" said Sam
Scott sat looking at the floor, he turned his attention to them "So, I can't go back to my place? I have a daughter"
"They will look for you there" Bucky told him
Scott nodded, he had been willing to fight alongside Captain America yet he would have never expected to become a worldwide fugitive, but no matter what happened he would find a way to be near Cassie.
Steve cleared his throat "I think we will accept your offer Clint"
Barton smiled "It's the least I can do"
Wanda hugged her knees to her chest; the question remained in her mind, now what? She would have to hide somewhere she wouldn't be recognized, so the United Stated didn't seem like a good option, still what would she do then? Back in Sokovia she had learned a second language, how to read, write and basic mathematics apart from that she had learned history by reading on her own or being explained by her brother, but what job could she apply for? Where would she live?
"Wanda" Sam called her
She looked up "what?"
"Are you okay?" he asked worried
"Yeah"
To be fair she wasn't lying, Wanda Maximoff had been way worse than now, even the burns on her neck from the prison didn't hurt as bad as some wounds she had had in the experiments.
When Clint landed he muttered "Home sweet home"
They all got out of the quinjet and began walking towards the house. Clint opened the front door and told them to wait; he was going to try explaining everything to Laura.
Less than a minute after they all heard his wife yell "WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU?!"
Wanda looked down, no matter where she went it would never be home.
"Wanda" Steve called her and motioned his hand for her to step closer.
She wasn't in the mood for a talk from Captain America but she moved. Steve scratched the back of his head trying to think of a way to comfort her "I know this is going to be hard for you, but if you ever-"
She cut him off with a kind smile "Thank you Steve but I'm okay"
He knew she was lying put pushing her would only make things worse so he simply nodded
"Steve" Bucky called him, the ex winter soldier leaned on the wall; he still looked pale and weak even though the fight had been a day before. His friend moved to him and they began whispering some secret stuff.
Laura and Clint appeared in the doorway "Hello" she greeted them with kind smile
Captain America took a step forward while helping Bucky to stand up straight; Laura opened the door for them and began instructing them so Bucky could lie on the couch.
Clint looked at Wanda and smirked "She's a piece of work"
She smiled "that's why you liked her, right?"
Barton laughed "Yep" then looking at Sam and Scott he invited them in.
"Thanks" Scott and Sam muttered
It had been about a year since Wanda had been there but everything seemed still in place, except for some toys the kids had left lying around.
"Wanda!" a girl's voice caught her attention; she turned just in time to see Lila run before hugging her
"Hi!" she greeted the girl
Clint let out a chuckle and crouched down to be at the level of his daughter "Lila, what did I say about going to bed?"
The girl let go of Wanda and answered "You told me it was past bedtime"
"Go back to sleep" he told her "Wanda will still be here in the morning"
She nodded and ran up the stairs into her room
"She's taller" Wanda told him
In queue Laura walked to them and gave her a small hug while grinning, her smile soon faded when she noticed how pale she looked "Do you feel all right?"
The Scarlet Witch nodded "Just a bit tired"
"We hope we aren't bothering you" Sam began "thank you for opening your house to us"
She smiled kindly at him "You aren't a bother at the lightest, although a call wouldn't be so bad" the last she said to Clint but he didn't take it personal.
He clapped his hands to get everyone's attention "There's only one spare room but if you give us a bit of time we'll move the boys into one room so you can have Cooper's bedroom"
"It's okay" Scott told him "I think we'll manage with one room"
Sam nodded "Don't worry"
Barton smiled "If you follow me I'll take you to the room and find you some blankets and pillows"
The two of them thanked Laura again and followed Clint up.
She touched Wanda's arm to get her attention "If you don't mind you can sleep in Lila's bedroom, she has a bunk bed"
The twin smiled and said "That sounds good". Before following Laura she walked to Steve and Bucky to say goodnight.
"Sweet dreams" Bucky told her, to be honest he didn't actually know her but from his own experience he could relate to what she was feeling at the moment
And Steve, well her eyes couldn't avoid filling with tears of gratitude for him rescuing her, she owed him so much. The super soldier immediately gave her a hug in a brotherly way.

Lila´s bedroom walls were painted blue with white stripes, the clock marked 1 am, it had been about an hour since they had arrived and went to "sleep"
The small girl had been so excited about the Scarlet Witch sleeping in her room that she told her they would do a sleep over, but Lila had fallen asleep 5 minutes later. Wanda smiled at the memory of herself at that age, everything had been so perfect, yes, she didn't have a lot but at least her brother and parents were with her and then… everything had gone to hell.
A shiver ran through her body at the memory of the missiles, she cursed herself for having moved, Lila was sleeping on the high part of the bunk bed.
Wanda was exhausted, weak and sad but she couldn't really sleep. Back in the facility when she had insomnia she would turn on the TV or read a book or in some cases, mostly after having a nightmare, she would telepathically call Vision and he would go into her room and stay with her until she fell asleep. It had all begun when a nightmare woke her up screaming, the humanoid had heard her and immediately appeared next to her, their bedrooms (although he didn't use his to sleep were next to one another) she had cried non-stop and he had held her until the tears dried on her face, then he had read her to sleep. The memory now seemed a distant one, she sighed and closed her eyes; they had all made wrong decisions instead of actually sitting down and talking things through but she understood that Vision had only wanted to protect her from herself, but Wanda didn't blame him, he was probably right. They were all freaks, freaks that once had been family.
