|❁ Camp out and stake out ❁|

They made it to the camp Wanda had mentioned in the late afternoon. The sky was getting darker and the sun was slowly going down.

Wanda had gone to the reception of the camp leaving Natasha to just wander.

She saw a woman with long brown hair next to a teenage boy, who was taller than her setting up their tent.

The boy looked up and a look of recognition passed over his face. Panic passed through Natasha like a cold. This could threaten their whole operation by getting busted.

Natasha tries to find a place to hide or run off to, she supposes, but the boy comes bounding over to her before she can even step an inch away from her spot.

"Peter, I told you not to walk off like that. So sorry ma'am." The woman he was with, comes up to her right after him. "He thought you looked like a member of the royal family from our home kingdom."

Natasha just smiled and nodded passively. She didn't know what to say to her.

"No I swear, Aunt May, she's the princess." The kid, Peter Natasha's mind fills in, says.

"Queen now Peter. The coronation we missed."

Natasha questions what she should do - honestly it would be so much easier with Wanda by her side. She definitely can't confirm that it's her. She can always deny, but kids aren't stupid, he's probably not stupid, so that probably wouldn't work.

She struggles to find the words for several minutes. - God, this is really awkward.

As if by answering her one prayer, Wanda comes back with a key and a smile.

Her brows furrow as she examines the situation from a far.

Wanda slid up to Natasha and grabbed her hand, a smile on her face - she definitely knew what to do.

"Hi, are there any problems here? Me and my girlfriend really have to get going." She interrupts.

Natasha waits, she waits for a reaction - whether that be shock or not, Natasha doesn't know but she expects a reaction.

What she does not expect is acceptance right away and a warm smile. Peter smiles wildly and starts to blabber on about being bisexual and his massive crush on Harry styles that his friend, Ned or was it Ted, - Natasha can't focus enough to recall correctly, still pleasantly surprised by the immediate acceptance - makes fun of him for it but his girlfriend, MJ, pretends to bully him about it but secretly likes his music because he likes it.

The kid, Natasha finds, can talk very quickly and for a while.

They spend a whole ten minutes talking whilst Wanda talks to May before they say their goodbyes.

Wanda grabs her hand and starts to walk in the opposite direction to where the tents are being set up.

She leads them to one of the small cabins that the site offers. Natasha assumed that they would be expensive and cost an arm and a leg, which she didn't think Wanda or her would be willing to give up.

"How did you get them to give you a free night here? Or did you spend all of our money?" Natasha asks as Wanda unlocks the cabin door.
