A Perfect Christmas- WandaNat x Reader

Gingerbread Houses

You danced around the compound kitchen to the sound of Jingle Bell Rock, nodding your head as you absentmindedly went through the motions that were all too familiar to you.

Your spatula became victim to your antics as the song faded and All I want for Christmas is You began blasting on the speakers. You contemplated telling Friday to turn it up even louder.

All of the kitchen utensils were your audience as you performed your solo of Mariah Carey's greatest hit.

You were in the middle of pointing to each individual tool with every "youuu" you sang when you turned and jumped, flinging the spatula somewhere over your shoulder.

Somewhere amongst your song and dance, Natasha had decided to enter the room. You weren't sure how much she heard or saw but the smirk present on her face told you all you needed to know. Your cheeks grew brighter than Rudolph's nose at being caught serenading the cutlery.

"I wish I had been recording that" She confessed as she walked over to you

"I'm so glad you weren't" you groaned as you went to go retrieve your poor spatula.

"Wanda would've loved to see that"

You playfully rolled your eyes as you took your spatula to the sink to wash it.

"No really," She started " She's got a thing for dancers, I would know"

You let the sound of rushing water fill your ears as your brain took time to process what Wanda's girlfriend had just told you. You looked over at her wide-eyed just as she dipped a finger in your frosting and stuck it in her mouth. It was entirely too nonchalant of an act for someone who just told you you were her girlfriend's type.

Your brain was on the fritz and you're pretty sure your heart stopped beating three minutes ago when she first walked in.

Just as you were about to address her comment the elevator dinged and you turned to see the other object of your affection walk in. You could quite literally feel Nat's smirk widen behind you.

"Oh! There you two are" the brunette sauntered over to the two of you "watcha doing in here Y/n?"

Before you could answer Nat butt-in, leaning against the counter with a mischievous smile

"I interrupted her concert, you should've seen it. It was great, the audience was going wild"

You smacked her on the shoulder as you tried to hide your embarrassment. You turned around to focus on your frosting when you saw Wanda leaning into Nat for a kiss. They were cute of course, the entire tower thought they were the perfect couple you just... sometimes you couldn't stand the way your heart would burn with jealousy every time you saw how affectionate they were with each other.

It wasn't just the fact that you were single that made you so upset- it was the fact that you were pretty sure you were in love with the couple.

But you couldn't ever tell them that. So you buried yourself in mixing the frosting and organizing the sprinkles so you didn't have to face them and their beautiful green eyes.

You were snapped from your thoughts when the oven beeped, telling you your baked goods were done.

"That smells amazing! What are you baking Y/n?" You turned to see Wanda a lot closer than before, despite the smell of cookies in the air, you could still smell her perfume and shampoo which was a perfect combination that only worked with her. You glanced over at her girlfriend who you figured would be mad at the proximity of you two but she was preoccupied with taking your gingerbread out of the oven for you. Your heart melted at her thoughtfulness, and at the sight of her wearing your reindeer oven mitts.

"I was just baking some gingerbread houses-"

Wanda's eyes lit up as she spotted the walls you'd just baked, she'd been at the tower for a good few years now but some Christmas traditions still felt new to her. You thought her excitement was endearing.

"Is there enough for us to join you?" Your heart leaped at her suggestion, they could be going out together and spending some quality couple time together but they wanted to hang out with you? You wiped your powdery hands on your apron as an anxious habit. Could you handle spending so much time around a happy couple- let alone a happy couple you wished you were a part of? You contemplated making up some excuse to try and save yourself but the look in their eyes was a look you know you could never say no to.

"It's a good thing I accidentally doubled the recipe" you chuckled as you turned to grab the extra dough you'd put in the freezer. You heard Wanda squeal in excitement behind you.

"Are we going to make a big one together or?" the question hung in the air as you unwrapped the dough and sprinkled some powdered sugar on it, placing it on the counter, you turned to see Natasha smirking once again- god she was going to be the death of you. Next year they're going to sing "Y/n got ran over by a reindeer and Natasha was driving the sleigh"

"You've got that look in your eyes Romanoff" you teased

She rolled her eyes "What do you say we make it a competition?"

You looked down at the dough on the counter and then over at your pan that was cooling

"I've only got enough for two houses"

Nat just shrugged "You make one and Wands and I make one"

It made sense, you thought, of course, they would build their home together.

You shocked your head, it's just gingerbread houses Y/n stop overthinking it!

You plastered a smile on your face as you walked over to them

"So it's going to take two of you to beat one of me?" You challenged

"I guess we'll see" Nat grinned and Wanda giggled next to her

"Game on" You stuck your hand out and Nat and Wanda both shook it.

Game on Indeed.
