AU
You are Wanda are in grade 12, your last year of high school. Wanda just transferred to your school from Sokovia. You're two weeks into your final year when she shows up. She is not The Scarlet Witch nor possesses any powers. She still watched American sitcoms growing up, making it easier for her to speak and understand English.

[Cafeteria]

You're sitting with your friends eating lunch and talking about your first two classes of the day. You look across the caf and spot the new girl. You noticed her in your math class but didn't get the chance to say anything as you were trying to focus on the lesson. She takes a seat by herself and begins eating. You feel bad for her as you know eating alone in the caf isn't fun, so you get up from the group to walk over to the brunette. "Hey, where are you going? I was just about to tell you about the cute boy in my class!" "Omg, is it Peter?" The group's conversation fades as you approach her.

"Hi." You wave. "May I sit?" She nods with a mouthful of food. "I noticed you in my math class. You seem new." "Yeah, I just transferred here from Sokovia." "Ooh, Sokovia. I've never heard of it. You're gonna have to tell me all about it." She smiles at your last few words. "I'm y/n." "Hi y/n. I'm Wanda." "Cool name. I like it." "I like yours too." You both smile with a chuckle. You talk for the rest of your lunch period. She tells you all about Sokovia and you tell her how your school works and where her next two classes are. As the period comes to an end your friend group walks by and one of your friends says, "Hey y/n, lunch is almost over and we better get going to physics." She starts pulling on your arm. You hadn't realized how fast the time had gone as you got to know your new friend. "Oh, okay. Catch you later, Wands." "See ya!"

[Hallway]

You're walking with your friend on your way to physics.
Your friend goes, "wow. Making friends with the new girl. How bold of you."
"She was sitting alone and I wanted to give her some company, that's all."
"She seems weird."
"You don't even know her."
"She just does."
"Well, she isn't. She's just shy because she's new."
"You don't know her well enough to say she isn't weird, y/n."
You scoff and snake your way in front of her as you walk into physics and sit on the other side of the class.

[Time skip to December]

It was the last day of school before Winter Break. Two glorious weeks off from school. You had gotten closer to Wanda. You wouldn't consider her your best friend, but she was definitely one of your closest. You're on your way to French class when you see your friends all standing together in a clump facing something or rather someone. You get closer and notice they're all facing Wanda. Their voices grow louder as you slowly approach the group.

"You're such a fucking weirdo like what are you even wearing?"
"Yeah, like are you trying to make some sort of fashion statement or something?"
"What it could it be... homelessness? Ugliness?"
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry. Are we talking too fast for you?"
"Do you not understand us?"
"Do you even speak English?"
"Let me slow it down for you. *heavily annunciating* You're a fucking ugly weirdo. *speaking normally* Did you get that?"

You had had it. You knew you had to go protect and defend your Wands. You push through the semi-circle of girls and stand in front of Wanda, trying to get the focus on you instead.

"Hey back off, alright?"
"Y/n what are you doing?"
"What does it look like I'm doing!? She's done nothing wrong and you guys are attacking her for no good reason."
"Oh, we have a reason. Didn't you hear us? She's a fucking ugl-"
"NO, SHUT THE FUCK UP! YOU GUYS HAVE NO RIGHT TO TREAT WANDA THIS WAY. SHE'S MY FRIEND, AND A BETTER ONE THAN ANY OF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN TO ME."
"Y/n calm down, don't embarrass yourself like this."
"This is embarrassing for you! You're picking on someone like you're in elementary school and have nothing better to do with your time."
"Well, she's an easy target and we're not the ones making a scene, that's on you."
"I wouldn't have had to make a scene in the FIRST PLACE IF YOU GUYS JUST COULD'VE LEFT HER THE FUCK ALONE!"
"We can't just let a fucking ugly weirdo rome around our school."
You stared into the eyes of the girl that just spoke with pure anger, your head tilting slightly.
You slowly walk up to her until your face is right in front of hers and say, "go to hell."
