Warnings: age regression and pacifiers, mentions death.
"Hey guys we have a new recruit coming in today be careful with her." Tony alerted during the meeting. "What is she dangerous?" Steve asked with a furrowed brow. "No her parents are dead she was experimented on at hydra, she lost her brother and she's a little sensitive about it." Everyone gave Tony a weird look. "Her brothers the fast one that helped us in Sokovia. She was there too, the red witch girl."
Everyone pretty much just hung around waiting for the girl to come after the meeting. We just sat in the living room until fury walked in. "Guys this is Wanda Maximoff." A small girl walked in with only a backpack on her shoulder. Everyone said hi and introduced themselves again but I could tell she wasn't interested. "How about i show you your room?" I say and she gives me a grateful nod. "I'm y/n by the way my room is just next door so if you need anything." She nodded. "I'll let you settle in." I quietly closed the door and left her alone for a while.
"I expect you all to be nice to her, if i hear any complaints and have to come down here you will regret it." With that Fury disappeared. "Hey y/n is she okay?" Clint asked I nodded. "She seemed a bit sad but that's what you would expect so I gave her some space to settle in." We all decided to get pizza for dinner I went to ask what Wanda would want.
"Hey wanda? We're getting pizza do you like pepperoni?" I couldn't hear a response but it sounded like she was crying. "Wanda you alright?" That was a stupid question obviously not. "I'm fine just leave me alone." I paused for a second but she soon spoke up again. "I don't want a stupid pizza I'm not hungry." I sighed. "You can eat it later just say yes or no to pepperoni and I will leave." I heard her groan from inside. "I don't care get me a pepperoni if you want I'm still not eating it." I decided to just leave her there was no point talking to her when she was this upset I knew it wasn't her fault I knew how hard it was losing someone. Being part of the avengers and sheild you tend to experience death of a colleague or friend at some point. Not that it makes it any easier.
"Something tells me the kid doesn't want pizza." Steve looked at me. "Why what happened?" He seemed genuinely intrigued. "She shouted I don't want a stupid pizza." I said obviously. "Oh, does she want anything else?" I shook my head. "And by the way I know that because she said I'm not hungry." Nat shook her head at me chuckling slightly.
"I'll get her one anyway if she doesn't eat it I'm sure point break will." Tony ordered the pizza and we all sat around waiting. When it finally arrived I grabbed Wanda's and took it to her room. "Wanda I got your pizza, I know you don't want it yet but if you get hungry it will be here." When I walked away I could've sworn I heard the door open but I didn't make a big deal out of it I just went back to the others.
When I went to bed Wanda's pizza box was still on the floor only this time it was mostly gone. "Wanda I'll put this in the fridge for you if you want it later." I headed back to the kitchen before going to my bed for real this time. I also made sure to say goodnight to Wanda on the way back but she didn't say anything in response.
This was how it went for the next few days I would bring her food and knock on the door and leave until she ate then I would throw away the rubbish. A few of the team made jokes about me being a delivery person or saying I should get a job at a hotel doing room service. But I felt bad for the girl and wanted to make her life just a bit easier and if that meant bringing her food and cleaning up after her then I was willing to do it.
A few nights later I woke up in the middle of the night for no reason what so ever. I decided whilst I was up I might as well go get a drink from the kitchen but when I walked down the corridor I heard a weird noise I walked faster and soon realised it was coming from Wanda's room.
"Wanda? You okay?" When she didn't answer I tried the door and to my surprise it opened. I saw Wanda curled up in bed. "Hey." I said gently rubbing her back. "Wanda look at me." She shook her head, refusing to lift her head from her knees. "Why not?"
""You f'ink i stupid." I barely heard what she said because she was mumbling but she also sounded like a child? "I promise I won't think you are stupid I just want to help you, will you let me help you?" Wanda slowly untucked her head and I saw a pacifier in her mouth. I will admit I wasn't expecting it so I froze for a second which was enough to set her off again.
"See I 'tupid baby now you hates me." I shook my head. "You're not stupid baby and I definitely don't hate you." For the first time her eyes properly met mine. "You no ha'e me?" I shook my head I could see her smile a bit. "I just want to help you, do you need a hug?" She instantly nodded and I could see more tears falling. "I've got you, it's okay baby." I whispered pulling her into my lap. "I Baby." Wanda repeated pointing to herself.
"That's right, what's made baby sad?" Wanda wiped a few tears from her left eye with the back of her hand so I did the other side. "I wan' pietwo." My heart instantly dropped. I remember how close they were when they helped us fight ultron. What maybe a year ago? In fact I think it was a year ago... today, so that's why she is crying. I saw Wanda's eyes close tightly and I knew she was probably thinking about him
"I know, you probably miss him huh?" She nodded. "I'm sorry baby, I wish I could do something about it." Wanda clung on to me tighter. "S'eep here wiv baby." I couldn't help but smile at the way she spoke she sounded so cute. "Alright baby ill stay with you I promise." I laid Wanda down before cuddling up next to her. "Go to sleep baby." She turned curling further into my chest. "Nu nigh mama."
Thanks for the request. I hope I did it okay ❤️
