Back for chapter was a little difficult because I tried to make Wanda a little introverted with her feelings towards Xander. Enjoy!


Wanda never had any time for Disney movies growing up; her parents didn't want her or Pietro to worry about fairy tales. Wanda was embarrassed to have to reveal to Xander that she had never seen a Disney movie before; it seemed Xander found that inconceivable; apparently it was a person's duty to watch a Disney movie at least once in a lifetime. As it was he was completely shocked, his jaw dropped all the way to the floor when Wanda had told him that she never seen any movie ever made by Disney. In response he brought out what Wanda was sure was intended to be every little girl's first experience with Disney. The Little Mermaid. To her surprise, it was a rather enjoyable film, with some life lessons that were worth learning, such as the literal deal with the devil that Ariel made. In Wanda's opinion, such a deal should never be made. Why give up your life for a world you don't even know? Even worse was the price made? If she were to fail she would be a slave for all eternity.

Wanda would sacrifice anything for the people she loved, but for someone who may turn out to be a complete jerk before she got to know him? She found Ariel to be rather naïve in that regard. But then again, she wasn't sure what to expect. The movie was aimed towards little kids, who were more likely to not question the movie as much as they were to sing to the songs. Granted the movie was enjoyable, but Wanda wasn't as interested mainly because she was a little older than the intended crowd. But what surprised her the most was Ariel, the main protagonist. She was mute during most of the movie, just like a certain man she knew, granted Ariel had willingly given it up, whereas Xander never had a choice in the matter. In a way, Wanda was sad that she would never hear Xanders voice; then again no one had ever heard his voice had they? He must never even have cried. A silent baby. That sounded like every parents dream.

But for Xander, he would never be able to say things. Things that Wanda wanted to hear him say. Like her name. His name was a drug on her tongue. How would her name sound on his tongue? She looked at Xander. Currently, she was curled at his side, her head resting on his shoulder as they leaned back on the couch, watching the rest of the movie. Wanda hadn't even realized that she was even in that position until about the time 'Kiss the girl' started. She nearly freaked out, but in all honest she rather enjoyed the intimate moment, and instead, snuggled closer to Xander, almost falling asleep simply from being so comfortable. Xander had quite the comfortable body.

By the time the final scene rolled around, Wanda could say that despite the movie not being her type of film, it was very enjoyable and she would like to watch more of them. That is if she wasn't busy trying to save the world every other day; that is if they were needed. She would hate to be on a romantic outing with Xander, only to have to deal with some alien invader halfway through.

But that was wishful thinking. She couldn't have a relationship with Xander. If her enemies found about about him, it would just end up being to dangerous for him. She didn't want him to die, especially after the events of today. He deserved a happy life, which was more than he would ever get as long as they were together. The problem? She had already fallen for him. More than she would have liked to. Even without reading his mind, Wanda could tell that he felt the same; the kisses were a dead giveaway.

So what was she supposed to do? She couldn't very well go out into the public with him; she was an avenger. She would be mobbed simply for an autograph. Xander would be mobbed for just knowing her and she would rather him be able to keep his privacy, as well as to keep him safe from anyone in case they got wise to the act.

She frowned, snuggling closer to him. She was going to keep him safe, no matter what. She lifted her head and gently pressed her lip against his cheek. Xander jumped, not at all expecting the gesture from Wanda. Wanda herself wasn't expecting that. She never expressed herself that freely. She froze, shocked by her own actions. She felt dirty and vulnerable. What had she just done? She let go of Xander and moved back, putting distance between her and Xander as she could on the couch. "Xander…."

Xander just stared at her. He had gotten used to Wanda's bipolar feelings for him. So rather than reach out to her he just stayed put, watching her. She was shaking slightly, biting her lip, her eyes darting between him and the door. She wanted to run again. But who was he to stop her? Sure, he was angry; who wouldn't be? He wanted her to stay, get to know her more. But she was making it very difficult because any time she expressed her emotions she became scared. Xander understood that she was afraid because she was an Avenger. If her enemies knew about him, they could use him. The thing was that she was constantly returning to him! If she had every intent to stay away, why didn't she? He frowned at her, his eyes showing both pain and remorse. Pain because Wanda was unable to make up her mind and remorse because he was causing her so much pain.

Wanda felt her heartbeat quicken, the look on Xander's face making her feel even worse than she should. She could tell he was a little upset with her. She could understand. She wanted to like him, but she was afraid to. "Xander…" she repeated, unsure what to say exactly. Xander shook his head, gesturing towards the door Wanda stiffened. He was telling her to leave because he could tell she was being indecisive. "No… Xander… it's not like I want to leave. I just…" her communicator went off startling them both. Instinctively Wanda raised her arm, speaking into her communicator "Maximoff" she said swiftly, hoping she didn't sound like her voice was wavering.

There was a slight pause before she heard voice of the Vision spring from her communicator "Wanda, is everything alright?" the android sounded oddly concerned for her, which in itself sounded odd. She rarely heard Vision sound like that. She knew that he was protective of his friends, but this was kind of embarrassing and a little invasive.

She huffed and turned away from Xander. "I'm fine Vision…." She said her voice biting with annoyance "is there something wrong?" She almost growled. There was another pause almost as if the Vision wasn't exactly sure how to answer that question "no, Wanda…. It's just been a few hours since you left the base."

Wanda sighed "well I'm fine Vision. She said "please… just." She said before pausing "I'll be back when I be back." She told he rally before signing off. She turned back to Xander who was still looking at her pensively. She shook her head, before giving him a cold glare "Xander, don't ever ask me to leave you like that!" she said harshly. "I know that I haven't been the best of… friends… but I've told you my reasons before. Surely you can see that!" she snapped. She gasped covering her mouth. She couldn't believe that she just yelled at him like that. Especially when he didn't deserve it.

She watched his face for any reaction, but there was none. Either he didn't care what she had said or he was hiding it and didn't want to get into an argument. Not that Wanda was sure how to get into an argument with him anyway. Arguments were usually vocal weren't they?

Wanda sighed "Xander … I'm sorry." She hadn't meant any of that. Well at least getting angry with him the way she had. She scooted closer to him "can you forgive me?" Xander responded by giving her a smile. Wanda giggled and tapped his nose once again "thanks…. Now how about we watch another one of those Disney movies?" she asked.

Xander smiled and went to grab another movie.


Back at the New Avengers facility, Vision stared at his communicator, which Wanda had just been on. He was rather concerned. After this morning when she had run off after attacking the Falcon, he had been worried about her well-being. Her heart rate and stress levels had been rising ever since the battle of Sokovia. It was not good for her.

Perhaps a psych evaluation was needed. Vision, from what he understood, knew that humans reacted differently under moments of stress and may not exactly know what they were doing. For Wanda it was exponentially worse since her powers were tied to her emotions.

Vision stood up and went over to the window; he opened it and took off, intent on finding Wanda, if only to help her out.


After yet another movie, Wanda had to admit that such things were kind of nice, even though she probably wasn't going to be able to watch a majority of them due to her life. Of course Sam and the others had tried to get her to do so this morning, but she hadn't exactly been in the best mood. But after making sure that Xander was ok, and spending the whole day with him thus far, her mood had vastly improved.

They hadn't gotten into another spat (except over some pop corn when Wanda said she was hungry) and it seemed that Xander didn't mind. He just started the movie and they resumed having a good time.

However after a while into the movie, there was a knock on the door. Wanda and Xander looked at each other and immediately knew something was up. if that was Xander's parents, they would have just walked in through the door. So clearly it wasn't them. She immediately got off the couch, red energy building in her hand. She didn't know whom it was and if it happened to be someone Xander didn't know, then they were going to get a painful blast of red light in their gut.

Without waiting for Xanders approval, she walked towards the door and opened it. Her draw dropped and she let out a groan. Standing at the door with a rather unashamed look on his face was Vision "oh hello Wanda. I wasn't expecting to see you answer the door." he said

Wanda's mouth worked furiously before setting into a snarl "Vision! What are you doing here?!" she screeched a red aura of impending doom surrounding her body. Forget wanted to strangle Sam for unintentionally not getting to Xander in time before he was shot, she was going to eviscerate Vision for having the nerve to track her down and interrupting her on her own time. How dare he?

Vision looked at her "I came to tell you that I would recommend you getting professional help. You seem stressed lately and I—"

Wanda wasn't hearing it "Vision… go away!" She slammed the door in his face. She turned, heaving in a sigh, before turning to look at Xander. He was smirking at her his arms crossed and his eyes were sparking with mirth.

Wanda pointed a finger at him "don't you start" she said, before giving him a grin "now, lets go back to the movie." she said, before both of them returned to the living room.


Vision stood at the door, contemplating whether or not to knock again. However given that she was angry, she probably wouldn't answer the door. So he just turned around and took off in the air.

In the distance, green eyes widened with surprise "this is getting interesting."


So we've got Wanda still confused and a big brother Vision and a mysterious being watching them. Well whats going on? Lets just say it won't be very nice.

Also can someone do me a favor. Vision confuses me. Is Vision capable of feeling emotion? In the comics he ends up with Scarlet Witch, but I just don't see him falling in love with her. So please let me know.
