We Are Titans

Chapter 15- Not Anymore

It's going to keep getting rough sooo... enjoy. Also I know I didn't differentiate, but the last chapter was over the span of many hours, from the early morning to evening.

Trigger Warning: Mature language and content

I'm shocked by what she said. I can't move, I'm frozen. Everything that happened to me has been his fault. The thought of it sends chills all around my body. I open my mouth to speak, but I can't I have no words. I don't even know what to say.

"What the hell is your problem." I hear footsteps enter the room, and I'm pulled out of my trance. I sigh and pinch the bridge of my nose "Could you give us a minute guys." No one says anything, but rush out of the room with no thought. I turn to face her "What?" she walks in the room more. "What the hell is your problem. You don't speak to me, you avoid me, you've got some issue with Vision. What the hell do I need to do for you to speak with me?" I cannot do this right now, I just found out the source of all my pain just escaped from federal custody. To avoid dealing with her I move and walk to the door. She grabs my arm and pulls me back to the room "Talk to me." I turn and snap my arm away from hers "What the fuck do you want me to say?!" She clenches her jaw "What? You want me to say I'm happy for you? Congrats, you're fucking happy. It's all I've ever wanted for you Wanda. But don't expect me to sit here and pretend to be happy about this situation, because I won't lie to you. Ever. I hate everything about this. I can't look at you without seeing everything we did. I won't. I refuse to talk to look at you... because when I do, I'll feel my heart shatter again Wanda and I can't feel that again!" 

She lets out a shaky breathe, concerning me "What?" She swallows the lump in her throat "All you ever called me was Princess." I clench my jaw, not in anger, but in pain "Yeah well that was when you were the love of my life." she takes a deep breath in frustration "That was over a year ago Nicole!" I nod looking down at my feet. My hands make their way onto my waist "Exactly Wanda..." I look back up at her "You had 13 months to move on. You stopped loving me 13 months ago... But me? I just had you last night. I told you I loved you last night. I kissed you, and held you last night.... You were the last person I saw, and you were the first one I wanted see when I opened my eyes.." she tries to move closer to me, but I back away pushing out my hand to stop her from moving closer. "Instead, I woke up to my bestfriend telling me that the love of my life, had left to be with someone else." She walks closer and I let her this time "Nicole-" I stop her "You know what the worst part is?.." she shakes her head "You're the only I want to talk to about it." there's a silence. I close the gap between us and hold her face in my hands. She tries to keep eye contact by placing her hands on mine, but I pull her in and kiss her on the forehead. I give her no time to react, by walking out of the room.

Tony waits for me outside the work shop, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. He sighs when he sees me, dropping his arms and pushing himself off to walk to me. His walk was slow, he was trying his best to be delicate with me. "Come on kid. We've got a party to plan." he places his arm around my shoulders, walking me back to the living room. I stare at him in confusion "What party?" he looks ahead "Your 'Welcome back from eternal lifeless sleep' party." I let out a laugh at the dramatic intent of his joke. "I'm just kidding, it's a 'Welcome home' party. Anything you want?" I take a deep breath "Yeah, loud music, and tequila... lots, and lots of tequila." he laughs and continues to walk. 

In the living room, everyone turns to us. I smile and Tony starts up "Everyone needs to be ready by 9 p.m.... we're having a partyyyy!" They all stand smiling, AJ and Elijah stand and high five each other. I smile and shake my head at the two of them, so childish, but they're currently the most important people in my life. I wonder where Bobbi went, I didn't plan on catching feelings for her, but I enjoy her company. Maybe I should catch feelings. It would help me move on, I think. No I can't do that. Last time I did that, my heart was shattered, so I'll steer clear and just try and have fun. I can do fun, I did before I met her, and I'll certainly do it now. AJ walks up to me a smirk plastered on his face, as he sticks his arms out. I back away "No." I push out my hand and point to him continuing "No AJ. No." he gets closer and I almost trip. When I try to rebalance myself he leans forward and throws me over his shoulder. "Nonono AJ put me down!" He starts twirling around and jumping, to be mean. "AJ put me down!" He leans down, setting me roughly on the couch. "You're lucky I'm about to throw up, or I would kick your ass." He jumps in his place and takes off running. Elijah sits down next to me shaking his head at the situation "Hey have you seen Bobbi?" he thinks for a moment. "Yeah I think she went to the kitchen." I nod and pat his leg as I stand.
