Here is the next chapter, I hope you enjoy it and I own nothing.
It had been a few weeks and things were going extremely well. We had been working with the new Avengers. Dad was off with Pepper, Bruce was taking some downtime, Thor was off-world, Clint was with his family but would pop in and Steve, Nat, and I with the help of Bucky had been training Sam, and Rhody when he was around. Vision, Wanda, and Pietro. I was getting along with all the new ones and we were having fun as well.
I had talked to Mel who was taking some time away from SHIELD but reassured me that she was alright.
I saw Wanda and Nat walk up to me with smiles on their faces.
"What is going on, What are you up to?"
"Well, Wanda here has never had a girl's day before and there is only one person I can think of that is a pro at them. So we were thinking that we are all in need of one after all the last few weeks. What do you say?"
"Just the three of us?"
"Well everyone else is busy, Laura with the baby, Maria doing things for Fury."
"Bobbi recovering, alright what should we do?"
"We go out and do everything."
"When have you ever been an everything kind of girl?" I ask Nat with a suspicious look.
"As I said, Wanda has no idea what girlfriends do to hang out. So we are teaching her."
"Alright, let me get ready and we can head out."
"Meet back down here in 30. That should be enough time for all of us."
"Sounds good. Are you sure about this Wanda?"
"It sounds fun."
"Well prepare for all kinds of unknown." We all head off to get ready to go.
I quickly got ready and then headed out of my room.
As I was walking out I saw Steve walking down the hall.
Smiling at him he walked up to me.
"Where are you off to?"
"Nat is dragging Wanda and me out on a girl's day. So who knows how long I will be out or where I will be going."
"Well, that should be fun."
"She's up to something."
"What do you mean?"
"She never is the first to say to go for a girl's day."
"Maybe she is trying to be welcoming to Wanda."
"Maybe, but I have a feeling she is up to something else."
"I guess with her you never truly know."
"That is very true."
"Well you should try to have some fun, you deserve it."
"I guess, I'd rather just hang out here with you."
"So after you get back let's go out."
"To do what?"
"Depends on when Romanoff gets you back. Maybe a picnic or a walk. Stargazing. Whatever you would like to do, or we could do everything."
"Alright, that sounds fun. Though I should get down there before she comes looking for me because we all know she will."
"I'll walk with you."
"I would like that." So we walk back down hand in hand.
Once down there I see Nat and Wanda waiting.
"Hello Rogers"
"Hello Romanoff"
"Don't worry I will look after your girl, after all, she was mine first."
"Are we fighting over me now?"
"Only because we all love you."
"Thank you, I think."
"It's a good thing don't worry. Are you ready to go?"
"Yes, but can we get back at a decent time?"
"You have plans with someone else?"
"Yes, Steve and I are going out tonight."
"I see how it is, swoop in and steal my girl. You're lucky she likes you so much or I might not be so forgiving."
"Well, it is a good thing you are."
"I will see you tonight Steve."
"Sounds good, have fun ladies."
"We will, maybe I will help her find a new outfit for tonight, maybe a little sexy."
"Nat"
"What, I am only teasing, mostly. Don't worry I will have her back in plenty of time."
"Bye love you."
"I love you." quickly kissing Steve, Nat pulls me out as Wanda follows and we head to the car.
"Don't worry Wanda, this is pretty normal. You will slowly get used to how everyone is around each other."
"For so long it was only Pietro and me, it is different from being around so many people."
"It is, and even if they are a bit much at times, you find that they are all amazing to have around. They have all become my family. We are all here for each other and we are here for you and Pietro. Plus I'm sure you would like some girl time as well."
"That does sound nice."
"It will be fun. We will do the whole works."
"She means everything by that, shopping, massage, hair, nails. All of it, it's the only way Stark's do things."
"Now you are making me sound stuck up Nat."
"You are the opposite, you only go all out if you have others with you that you are going all out for. It's one of your charms."
"How thoughtfully put. Come on Wanda I promise it really is fun."
"Alright." So we got in the car and headed for the City.
We decided to start with shopping and figured then we could relax and get dolled up as Nat so kindly put it after.
Nat handed me a dress and smiled.
"Nat, really?" While it was pretty it was not something I would normally wear.
"Yes, humor me and try it on."
"Fine" I walk into the changing room and put it on.
Once I had it on I turned to look in the mirror and was blown away.
I looked beautiful in this dress. I was amazed because I had never put anything on like it but now that I saw it on me, I loved it.
It was a royal blue with a sweetheart neckline, that had a fitted bodice but flared out some at the waist. It ended just above my knees and had a sheer fabric over the skirt part that was a little longer.
I felt amazing, pretty, confident and a little sexy, alright a lot more than a little sexy in the dress. I was just amazed that I loved it so much.
"Are you alright in there? Or did you die of shock at how stunning you look?" Nat called out to me. With a sigh at her dramatics, I took one last look before walking out where they both looked at me.
"What do you think?"
"You look radiant," Wanda told me with a smile.
"Thank you, What about you Nat, what do you think?"
"You are glowing, it's perfect for you."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I also think Rogers will enjoy it."
"Nat, really?"
"I'm just saying what we are all thinking."
"What if it gets cold tonight though?"
"I'm sure he will give you his jacket like the gentleman he is."
"Do you really think I should do it?"
"If you don't I will do it for you."
"Alright, I will do it." I go back to the fitting room and change before we find a few more things and then pay before leaving to get our nails done.
We were not long at the nail place, each of us just getting them painted as the jobs we had didn't really work with long fake nails too well.
So we headed to the spa to get our massages and whatever else we decided.
As we were there we started to talk.
"So Wanda what are you thinking?"
"This is a lot of fun. I have never done anything like this."
"Well, I am glad you are enjoying it all."
"So do the two of you do this a lot?"
"Not too often but we do try to have girls' time often with all the guys we work with."
"It's only ever you two?"
"Well not always, we have other ladies that join us as well. We will need to plan a girl's day with all of them as well. I think you would like the others and get along with them well."
"That sounds nice."
"You know we are happy to have you around Wanda. I know you and Pietro have not been sure about it all and how we truly feel, about how we all met but you both have been a welcomed addition to the team. I'm glad you decided to stay."
"Thank you, I was unsure if you would truly be alright with us being here."
"You are both good, you just didn't get a good start. It's easy to do bad things when that is the only choice you have."
"James was used by Hydra for years. I was used by them, and they all welcomed us. Sure you have done some things that you are not proud of but we all have. We all have a past Wanda, not all of it is good but it is how we chose to move forward that will be what defines us."
"I am glad I have both of you around to help me get there."
"Anytime or anything you need we are here for you."
"Thank you, that means a lot to me."
"Of course Wanda."
After that, we finished with our massage and got some facials before heading out.
"So where to now?" I asked Nat.
"I say we do our hair. That way when we get back all you need to do is slip into your gorgeous new dress and you are ready to blow away Rogers."
"What is with you guys and the Rogers, Romanoff all the time? Do you not like each other?"
"No not at all, it is just our thing. He's James' best friend and he is also dating one of my best friends. Plus he is a great guy, he's perfect for you. But I like to mess with him and get in his head every now and then. It makes life fun. Plus with Tony not always being around, I have to give someone a hard time."
"Well I will tell dad you miss him, he should come by a little more as it is so maybe you can give him a hard time as well. After all, I love to as well."
"Are you and your father close?"
"Yes, and no. I love my dad. I truly do but at times he drives me crazy. Mom always said it was because I didn't have the reckless Stark gean. I love him though but not always a fan of his ideas or behaviors. Sometimes I try to make the most of it."
"Stark is a lot of work and a person that is very complicated."
We pulled into the hair salon and all got out.
"He does seem to be a lot to get used to."
"You have no idea," I told her as we walked in.
An hour later we had finished and were now headed back to the compound so that I had plenty of time to get ready and change for my date with Steve as Nat had put it.
"You can't keep him waiting too long, he has done enough to last a lifetime."
"You're so very clever Nat"
"What can I say? I do try." She had a suspicious smile on her face but I knew her well enough at this point to know there was no point in asking her what she was up to because she would never tell me.
"So Wanda what did you think? Normally our girls' days are a little more planned out but I do hope that you had fun still."
"Very much so, I do have to say thank you for allowing me to come with you both. It truly means the world to me. I was not sure if I would fit in but you have been very welcoming to both my brother and me. I know our meeting was less than nice but I am very grateful you gave us a chance."
"Wanda we truly are happy to have you both around I promise you that. And while yes our meeting was not ideal, it is what it is and now you are part of a group. A very big messed up group who has kind of become a messy wild, sometimes inappropriate family but a family nonetheless. We are here for each other, even at times when we don't see eye to eye. We will always be there for one another."
"Well thank you for being truly the kindest person I have ever met."
"Well, you are welcome, although I do feel bad that I am the kindest person you know. I know so many that are wonderful and kind."
"She doesn't know how to take a compliment, Wanda. You will learn that as you spend time with her. She always tries to turn it back to others. She has a hard time seeing how special and unique she is."
"Alright, I get it, Thank you Nat, and thank you, Wanda. I had fun today. Thank you for making me go out and thank you for the compliment, Wanda."
"Of course, you are different than I thought you would be, in all the best ways I promise. I see why everyone loves you so much."
"Thank you, I'm glad you gave us a chance."
We pulled up to the compound and got out grabbed our things and walked in.
As we walked in the guys were sitting in the informal living room and we walked in to talk to them.
"How was shopping?" Dad asked.
"I didn't know you were here."
"That was not an answer to the question you know."
"It was good. Did something happen? Why is everyone here?"
"Nothing actually, just hanging out. All are getting along just like you wanted." Dad said with a look that slightly worried me but I decided to let it go.
"Come, let's get you ready," Nat said, grabbing my hand and pulling me away.
I waved to the guys as I saw them smiling and some chuckling.
"Traders," I called out. Which made them laugh more.
There you have it, I hope that you liked it. Please review and let me know what you think. Some things are coming so be ready for that. Thank you Guest for your review.
