"It'll stop any day now," Scott said looking out at the terrace.

"What will stop?" Ana asked.

He just shrugged, watching the sunset for the 40th time.

She cuddled up to him, as they turned their eyes away from the window.

"The kids are asleep," She said.

He smiled. The sun was setting. The children were asleep though.

Any day...

"You know what would be cool?" She smiled.

"What?" He looked at her. She looked...young. She's been looking younger every day. Now she looked like when they first met.

She grinned, tossing her purple braids over her shoulder. "If we watched WandaVision like the old times."

He blinked. "Old times...you mean when I took you captive?"

"Yeah," she elbowed him, "We watched that show like a million times. I miss it. Wanna rewatch it?"

He smiled wistfully.

It'll stop...any day now.

"Yes...let's do that." He agreed softly, picking up the remote.

He turned the television, smiling softly, looking down at her for a moment. She looked up at him with an innocent grin, as they both turned their eyes to the television.

Scott clicked the power button.

A long prolonged beep filled the room. Ana glanced up.

"I guess it was today then."
