AN: Enjoy!

Vision led Wanda to his car, and, a perfect gentleman, opened the passenger door for her.

"Thanks, Vizh" Wanda blushed a little as she got in.

"You're welcome" Vision replied with a smile, hopping into the driver's side. He blushed a little himself when Wanda kissed his cheek.

Wanda giggled. Definitely the sweetest guy she knew.

Vision drove the pair of them to a little nice looking little Cafe. A sign on the window read 'The Ant & The Wasp'. Soon after they entered, Vision was greeted by a woman with blonde, but greying hair.

"I'm sorry, Vision, your special order isn't quite ready yet. Usually I have more help, but Hope is away on a trip with Scott.."

"That's alright, Janet" Vision smiled, pulling out a chair for Wanda at a nearby table. "We were going to stop for a pot of tea first anyway."

"Oh!" Janet noticed Wanda's presence, and smiled a very wide smile. "Hello."

"Oh dear, I've forgotten my manners" Vision chuckled. "Janet, this is Wanda.. a special new friend of mine."

"Uh.. hi" Wanda blushed at his sweet introduction.

"It's nice to meet you, Wanda. I'll go grab you both that pot of tea, and your special order should be ready by the time you're done.." Janet headed back to the kitchen.

"Special order?" Wanda asked Vision, curious. "What special order?"

"Well, it's such a nice day" said Vision, "And there is a lovely park nearby.. I thought you and I might go for a picnic today. Janet puts together the most wonderful hampers, so I called earlier and asked if she could make one up for us."

"That does sound nice" Wanda smiled. "I haven't been on a picnic since.. I can't even remember when."

"I haven't been on a picnic for a while either" Vision chuckled. "So, it seems Today we will both break our picnic drought."

"It seems we will," Wanda agreed.

Janet dropped their tea back to the table.

"There you go.. It's so nice to see Vision here with a friend for once" Janet hurried off again before Vision could reply.

"I am.. Here by myself a lot" He blushed a little as he poured Wanda's tea. "Being a single parent makes it hard to make friends at the best of times. Being a single parent with a sick child complicates things even further.

"I understand" Wanda flashed him a thankful smile, taking a sip of her tea. "Making friends as a Foster Child isn't easy either. Pietro was charismatic enough that it didn't matter so much for him, but for me, being a foster kid on top of being the quiet, weird kid? High School was pretty much Hell."

"Oh, do not get me started on High School.."

A short while later, after they had finished their tea, and Janet delivered their hamper to the table, Wanda and Vision headed to the park that Vision had talked about. At the park entrance, Vision hesitated.

"Is something wrong Vizh?" Wanda asked him.

"Well.. I admit, I may have had an ulterior motive in bringing you here with me today.."

"Oh?"

"You see, the last time I came to this park was with.."

"Your son" Wanda realised, looking around, recognising the place. "The picture of his last good day.."

"Yes.." Vision nodded. "I.. I've found it hard to come here, since Vin's passing. But this was one of our favourite places. He wouldn't want me to give it up.."

"That's understandable."

"And I thought.. Maybe if I came with you, it will be easier, and if I did break down or cry, it wouldn't be so bad, because you understand. But I would never want you to feel like I was using you. We can always go somewhere else."

"It doesn't feel that way" Wanda smiled softly, taking his hand. "It's nice.. And maybe, next time I have somewhere that's difficult for me to go, you can come with me."

"That's fair" Vision agreed.

"Good. So, let's go enjoy this very nice park."

"Yes" Vision smiled, squeezing Wanda's hand. "Let's."

So, they walked through the park for a while, hand in hand. Vision pointed out a few things along the way.

A sandpit that Vin had loved when he was small.

Swings on which he had pushed both his twins.

A path that Vin had loved to ride his bike along when he was a little older.

While he did feel quite sad, Wanda's presence kept him from breaking down and embarrassing himself in the middle of the park.

She simply listened, squeezing his hand when she felt he needed comfort, catching a few tears that escaped from his eyes.

Vision was so grateful to have her there, and he promised, her and himself, that when the time came that she needed him in a similar situation, he would definitely be there.

Eventually, they found a nice spot under a tree, where Vision laid out a picnic blanket, and they both sat down to eat. The hamper was packed full of goodies, specially made sandwiches, cakes, and pastries, both savoury and sweet. Vision picked out his own few special favourites, while Wanda, who had never had such an elaborate picnic spread before, made sure to try a little of everything, and when she had, she definitely had to agree with Vision's earlier statement that Janet put together wonderful hampers.

At some point, after they had both eaten their fill, they ended up laying together on the blanket, gazing up at the clouds.

"Towards the end" said Vision, idly running his fingers through Wanda's hair, her head resting on his chest, "When Vin couldn't move so much, he still loved to cloud watch. It was one of the few things he could still do outdoors, even when he was ill. He, Viv and I would just lay here for hours."

"That sounds nice."

"Yes, it was very peaceful."

"For Pietro and I, it was stars.." a soft, sad smile crossed Wanda's face. "We were often.. Between homes, before we moved in with the Bartons. Sometimes, we would sleep under the stars, and if we were somewhere not comfortable or quiet enough to sleep, we would sit up together and look at the stars, and pick out constellations.."

Vision looked at her, quite awestruck.

"You constantly amaze me, do you know that?"

"I do?"

"You do. Everything you've been through, and survived.. It amazes me that people can walk right past you everyday and have absolutely no idea how strong you are."

"You think so?" Wanda blushed.

"I know so" Vision replied.

"Well.. you're pretty strong yourself, Vizh. Everything you've dealt with, raising two kids on your own, and having one get so sick..You are amazing, keeping yourself together so well."

"Oh.. Thank you" Vision blushed himself, then fell quiet for a while. "Wanda?"

"Yeah?"

"I.. I have been thinking.. I know this.. Whatever we are.. Is still relatively new, and we haven't exactly put a label on it, but since we.. I, um.." He sounded nervous. "Since we started whatever this is, I have not been seeing anyone else.."

"Oh.." Wanda blushed again. "Neither have I.."

"Well.." Vision sounded quite relieved now, though still nervous. "I would like to continue.. Not seeing anyone else.."

"Well.." Wanda felt a strange flutter in her heart. "Okay. I don't want to see anyone else either."

"And maybe.." Vision continued, smiling now, "It might be nice to see each other more than just Friday nights after grief group.."

"Yes.." Wanda agreed, smiling too. "That would be nice."

Vision's smile widened a little, and he kissed her. So different from their first kiss, hard and needy and desperate to feel.

It was a soft kiss, a sweet and gentle kiss. A kiss that said 'I like you. Maybe one day I could love you'. A kiss that felt like the beginning of something more.

And for that one perfect moment, for the first time in a very long while, Wanda and Vision were happy.
