WandaWidow - Book 2

Chapter 27 - Request

"How about a witch?"

"Absolutely not," Natasha shook her head.

"Mummy? Zombie?" Wanda suggested.

"Nope."

"Oh come on Natasha, there must be something you want to dress up as?" Wanda pleaded.

The two were sitting at either end of the couch, as Wanda tried to persuade Natasha to join her in dressing up for Halloween.

Natasha shrugged, "I don't know what to say love, I just don't get the dressing up thing."

"Hah!" a cackle came from the hallway and the two turned to see Yelena enter with a bowl of popcorn in her hands.

It'd been a few days since Yelena had arrived, and she quickly made herself at home in Natasha and Wanda's house.

"What?" Natasha asked.

"You don't like dressing up?"

"So, what?" Natasha replied.

"So, you're full of shit."

"What are you talking about?"

"You dress up all the time."

"When have you ever seen me in a costume?"

Yelena laughed, "Uh, you just dress up as an Avenger."

"Just eat your popcorn please," Natasha rolled her eyes and turned her attention back to Wanda.

"Please?" Wanda pouted, "We could match. It'll be cute."

"Fine," Natasha gave in, "Just pick whatever you want and I'll wear it."

"Thank you babe," Wanda grinned, before picking up her phone so she could look for ideas.

Natasha smiled back at her, but it quickly faded when she heard gagging noises coming from the other chair, so she turned to glare at her sister.

"Yelena I swear, can you just shut up for like five minutes?"

Yelena giggled, but then mimicked zipping her mouth shut and threw away the imaginary key.

"What about an angel and a devil?" Wanda suggested, having ignored the whole interaction between the two sisters.

That broke Yelena's short lived vow of silence, as she burst into a fit of laughter at the thought of her sister in angel wings.

"When exactly are you leaving?" Natasha directed to the other blonde.

"Well I was planning on going tomorrow, but if you're dressing up as an angel then I'm staying to see that."

"Very funny, and who said I'll be the angel?"

"Well," Wanda chimed in, "It would make more sense with your hair."

"Hah!" Yelena repeated again.

"I'll do it as long as Yelena isn't here. I might end up killing her if she is."

Yelena raised her hands in defence, "Fine. I need to go tomorrow anyway. More Widows to free from their enslavement after all."

"How is that going?" Wanda asked.

"Meh," Yelena shrugged, "It's going. We're very good at hiding which is making them hard to find but we'll get there. I have a few other ex-Widows helping me too."

Natasha spoke next, "Thank you for doing that by the way. I know I didn't really offer to help."

"It's fine," Yelena replied, "You have your job and I have mine. I can't let you have all the glory."
