CARSON STOOD UP straighter at the sound of the voice coming from his left. He turned his head to the side, a huge smile tugging at the corner of his lips as his eyes landed upon Wanda. She too turned her head and met his gaze, slowly lowering down her hands and allowing her red wisps to fade out, a wave of relief washing over her.

Wanda began walking over to him

Wanda began walking over to him. But the happy and relived demeanour she had soon changed. As she got closer, her eyes suddenly narrowed along with her head tilting to the side making Carson practically choke on air.

Oh shit.

He cleared his throat. "Wanda I—"

"No, no, no. Don't you Wanda me." She shook her head, pushing him backwards as she approached him.

Carson furrowed his brows and let out a small scoff at his girlfriends reaction. So much for a wholesome reunion huh?

"Jesus Witchy. What the hell was that for?"

"Oh, I'll tell you what that was for." Wanda raised her voice. "You disappear on me AGAIN for a few more days—"

"Wanda let me explain."

"I'm still talking." She glared and him, instantly making Carson shut up. "After you went completely ghost again I started to get worried but I figured, oh no it's fine right? He'll be fine, just like he told me he would be. So I just tried my best to brush it off and not think about it for a few days because I didn't want to seem like a psycho girlfriend who has to know you are all the time! But then you, I don't know how but... this strange link that we have... I— I suddenly couldn't get a connection anymore and I thought... I thought that—"

Wanda's hands were all over the place as she continued her rant, visibly getting more worked up as she continued explaining. Carson frowned when he noticed her eyes starting to well up, her breathing starting to become erratic. He carefully moved forward and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into his embrace.

After a few seconds, Wanda relaxed in his hold and threw her arms around him too, nuzzling her face into his chest. Carson put his hand on the back on her head and ran his fingers through her hair like he always does to soothe her.

"I couldn't..." Wanda sniffled. "I couldn't feel you anymore. I thought you— I thought you were dead."

"Shhh, it's okay." He kissed the top of her head gently. "We're okay."

Wanda pulled back and looked up at him. His chest tightened when he saw the tears streaming down her face as she cried.

"You can't die." Wanda shook her head.

Carson cupped her face. "I won't."

Wanda's breath hitched in her throat as she tried to speak while crying. "I'm serious I— Like never... you can't..."
