AN: Enjoy!
Very briefly, Wanda and Vision had considered skipping Tony's Wedding, thinking that it could be too risky taking the boys to the biggest event of the year with the unpredictability of their newfound powers.
Except that, well, they really didn't want to skip it. Their invitations to the Wedding had been the first major step in the new, much friendlier relationship that Wanda had been building with Tony, and she really didn't want to ruin that. Besides, the Avengers were a family, and they all loved Tommy and Billy. There would be plenty of people among the guests who would help keep an eye on them.. But that didn't mean that they wouldn't take a few extra precautions.
When the big day arrived, while Wanda, Natasha and Carol got ready together, Vision dressed in the suit Wanda had helped him buy before Tony's Sokovia Benefit ball a couple of years before, then set about tending to the twins. He dressed them in tiny tuxedos purchased specially for the occasion. Wanda had spent most of the previous afternoon sewing weights into strategic spots in Tommy's in hopes it would hamper his speed. Billy's power was, unfortunately, even less predictable than his brother's, so their only real option was to keep a very close eye on him.
With his sons looking so adorable in their little tuxes, Vision couldn't resist taking a few pictures. He was in the middle of this impromptu photo shoot when Wanda entered their room. Vision turned to face her, and his jaw dropped. She was stunning.
Wanda blushed at his reaction, and giggled, doing a little spin for him, the teal silk of her dress perfectly catching the light.
"How do I look, Vizh?"
"Gorgeous.." Vision murmured, needing to think for a moment to find the right words. "Perfect. Absolut minunat."
"You scrub up pretty well yourself, Vizh" Wanda blushed again, but smiled. She loved it when Vision spoke Sokovian for her. "Foarte chipes."
"Ma!" Billy cooed, little arms reaching out for her.
"Ma!" Tommy echoed, also reaching.
Wanda's eyes lit up, and she swept both twins into her arms.
"Hello, my Baieti pretiosi. You both look so handsome, just like Daddy. Are we all ready to go to Uncle Tony's wedding?"
"Wanda" Vision blinked. "It sounded like.. they almost said.."
"I know what it sounded like, Vizh, but the boys are only seven months old. They might string a few sounds together here and there, but there's no point getting too excited over anything they might have 'said' yet.." Still, Wanda was smiling, and the sparkle in her eyes gave away the fact that, despite what she said, she may have been just a little excited.
"Of course" Vision smiled softly, kissing her cheek. "Not yet. How silly of me."
Wanda blushed, passing Tommy over to Vision, while keeping Billy settled in her arms.
"Come on. Tony's sent a limo to take us all there. Everyone's waiting for us." Of course, by 'everyone' she had meant Natasha, Clint, Sam, Bucky, and Carol. Steve, as a member of the Wedding party, had left early, and Bruce had gone with him in order to avoid the stress from the large crowds and paparazzi that would surely be awaiting the later arrivals.
"Car seats?" Vision asked.
"Yes, he made sure there were car seats for the twins. Come on, we don't want to be late.."
As their limo pulled up outside the Wedding venue, Nat glanced out the window. The crowds were massive, including large groups of fans, journalists, and photographers.
"Damn, the vultures are everywhere" She frowned, thinking for a moment. "Okay, here's the plan. Clint and I will head out first, with Wanda and Vision behind us. Carol, Bucky, Sam, if you three bring up the rear and protect us from behind, we should be able to shield Tommy and Billy from the cameras. Got it?"
"Yes" Vision nodded, touched by Nat's efforts to protect the twins, while everyone else murmured in agreement.
"Ya!" Tommy shouted.
"Okay" Natasha chuckled. "The boss has spoken. Let's go!"
They raced past the throng of rather annoyed photographers and journalists, many of whom had been hoping for a word with Wanda since the Wedding was her first official public appearance she had become one of the major heroes of the battle against Thanos, and headed inside. The building was already rather crowded, with many rows of seats already beginning to fill with guests.
"Wow.." Wanda looked around at the numerous flower displays decorating the space. "This is beautiful.."
"There are a lot of people here.." Vision clutched Tommy a little tighter, almost nervous. "Are Weddings always this big?"
"They don't have to be" Wanda smiled, reaching out to give his hand a comforting squeeze. "You know Tony likes making a statement, and he just.. knows a lot of people who would want to come. Some people prefer something smaller and more intimate, and that's fine. It really depends on what the couple wants.."
"Right" Vision noticeably relaxed. "Of course."
Wanda noticed that Natasha, overhearing this conversation, was now eyeing them with slight suspicion, and quickly looked away from her, finding a happy distraction in the form of Peter Parker, happily bouncing towards them after showing a few other guests to their seats.
"Hi, guys!" He greeted them happily, reaching out to tickle the twins, both cooing joyfully.
"Hello, Peter" Wanda smiled at him. "You're looking very handsome. Is that a new suit?"
"Yeah, Mr. Stark bought it for me" Peter grinned, then consulted the list he was holding. "Let me show you to your seats.."
"Wanda and I were just going to sit up the back in case the twins get fussy.." Vision tried.
"Oh no" Peter quickly objected, leading them towards the front rows before they could argue.. "You guys are here.. Family up front."
Carol, Bucky, and Sam broke off the group a couple of rows back, slipping in to sit beside Fury and Maria Hill, while Peter led Clint, Nat, Wanda, Vision and the twins right up to the front row. Thor flashed them a cheesy grin as they took their seats, while Bruce looked up from a conversation he had been having with Peter's Aunt May to happily greet them. Two seats remained in the front row. One for Peter, beside May, and one to Wanda's left.
Peter rushed off to continue seating the guests. Tony, already in position by the altar with Rhodey, Happy, and Steve by his side, waved to them, giving a nervous smile. Once nearly everyone was seated, Peter returned with a sandy-haired boy around his own age, indicating the seat beside Wanda.
"Are you sure?" The boy frowned. "I really didn't think I'd be this close to the front."
"Uh.." Peter consulted his list. "Harley Keener.. Yeah, this is right."
"Okay.." Harley took his seat beside Wanda, leaving Peter finally free to sit down himself.
"Hello.. Harley, is it?" Wanda, sensing a bit of nervous energy from the boy, offered him a warm smile.
"Whoa!" Harley's eyes widened. "You're the Scarlet Witch! I saw you on TV, you're.."
Unfortunately, Wanda never found out what Harley thought she was, or at least not right then, because music suddenly echoed through the hall, and the crowd fell silent.
The Bride was about to arrive.
