In Spite Of It

'like This'

*nobody's POV*

Shuri and y/n walked to the dining room together and sat beside each other. Y/n was getting overwhelmed and Shuri gave her a reassuring look and squeezed her hand.

Shuri:"it will be fine stark. Never seen you so nervous" she smirked

Y/n:"I don't get nervous" she randomly got a feel of confidence.

However her confidence was crushed as soon as the sokovian brunette walked through the door. Following her was Steve, bucky and Sam. Y/n can't wait to leave.

Steve:"Shuri.... Y/n"

Y/n:"Steve" she sighed

They all sat down for dinner and ate in silence. Towards the end of the meal Steve spoke up

Steve:"so how is everything at the compound"

Y/n:" fine...considering" she said coldly

Bucky:"come on y/n don't be like that"

Y/n:"like what? Like my so called 'best friends' left me in Germany injured. You walked away. You all did" she looked at Wanda when saying the last part.

Sam:"y/n we had to leave, can't you understand that we did what we thought was right"

Y/n:" becoming criminals is the right thing? I tried to tell you what would happen but you wouldn't listen. You were too stubborn. You guys turned your back on family. You left us. Steve you left Nat..."

Steve's jaw clenched at the mention of Nat.

Y/n :" and worst of all you left without saying goodbye. You didn't even attempt to contact anyone. You had us worried for months trying to find you. It was heartbreaking not seeing you everyday at the compound."  y/n found herself looking at Wanda and Wanda only when giving this speech.

Everyone just looks at the two girls having a moment.

Wanda :" y/n I'm so sor-"

Y/n:" so yeah, I'm gonna stay 'like this'. Thanks for dinner Shuri and tchalla  I'm gonna head to bed"

Y/n storms off down the hall and into her room for the night.

*wandas POV*

I am such an idiot. Its been 5 years and I'd be lying if I said I didn't think of her everyday. I missed her smile, her laugh, her sitcoms I even miss her annoying sarcasm. I miss her loving me. It hurts to see her hate me. I never thought she could hate me. I guess I was wrong.

She was right. I should have gone. FUCK it I never should have left. But I did. She was right about it. About everything.

Wanda:"I'm gonna go train guys, see ya"

Shuri :"later witchy"

I head down to the training room and start hitting the punching bag. With every hit I think of y/n. All of our memories now tainted by my foolishness. All the memories I will never get to experience again. I keep hitting harder and harder until I notice blood on the bag. My hands had spilt open.

"shit" I mumble

I walk over to the first aid kit. I am wrapping my hand until I am startled by a voice.

Shuri :" what did you do"

Wanda:"I was just angry"

Shuri:"I know it's hard to see y/n this way"

Wanda:"it's even worse that it's all my fault. I had everything with y/n now I have nothing."

Shuri :"Wanda she needs time. You haven't spoken in 5 years what do you expect. Leave her get her emotions out then she will talk. For now just stay clear."

Wanda:"you are right. I don't wanna make things worse"

Shuri:"don't worry I'm rooting for you guys"

Wanda:"I just wish she was too..."

Shuri :"come on let's go"

Wanda:"where"

Shuri:"we are watching a movie so go shower you stink"

Wanda:"bitch-"

Shuri"then meet me in the movie room at 8,now run along"

Wanda :"I hate you"

Shuri:"I love you too"

I leave Shuri and head for my shower. I can always count on her.
