"'Perfection'."

The group walked further, slowly heading towards where Alexei stated Melina's current place of living was. When they got there, the older Widow was holding a large sniper and seemed shocked to see them. Natasha and Alina wanted nothing to do with her while Yelena was staring at her and Alexei was beaming at her.

"Honey, we're home." He said happily.

Alina scoffed quietly, leaning on her cheek onto Wade's arm as she watched Melinda walk past them. The mercenary looked down at her, worried at how this 'family' reunion would end up. Hopefully with Alexei six feet under, but that was wishful thinking at this point.

"Come on, girls." Alexei said and they followed him over to them house where Melinda lived.

"Welcome to my humble abode." Melinda spoke up as they walked inside. "Make yourself at home. Let's have a drink."

Alina walked into the living room, towards a bookshelf. Most were linked to science for, what she assumed was, Melina's role in the Red Room while others were old. She picked up one with furrowed eyebrows, recognising the spine of the book.

As she slipped it pout of the shelf, her blank expression faulted as she breathed in sharply. It was the old book of photos they took in Ohio together. Wade made his way towards her, looking over her shoulder as she opened it to reveal the photos.

"I didn't think you had any Christmases?" Wade said in confusion.

"We didn't." Alina hummed. "Most of these were taken in one day. Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter. The boxes are empty, they're fake presents."

"Oh. That got very depressing." Wade mumbled.

"We still opened them." She muttered quietly, flicking to the next page.

"What? Opening them is as pointless as a 1 inch dick." Wade mused.

"We knew. But it was almost real. I was always just a little bit off believing it could be. Never let my hopes get too high." Alina replied and slapped it shut, shoving it back into the bookshelf.

Yelena was at the table and she pulled a chair back and sat down. Alina made her way over and sat opposite her, Wade at the head of the table closest to her. Natasha was speaking to Melinda in the kitchen and Alexei was in the bathroom, trying to force on his Red Guardian costume.

Natasha and Melinda sat down at the table, Natasha beside Alina and Melinda beside Yelena. In the bathroom, they could hear Alexei grunting and groaning as he tried to pull the leather on and Wade was wishing to make a comment but when he went to, Alina tapped his shin with her boot.

"Let's drink." Melinda stated and grabbed a bottle of vodka, pouring everyone a shot each , including herself

Alexei suddenly cleared his throat, out of the bathroom and leaning on the doorway in his costume, including his helmet, "Still fits."
