You are my world

Finding hope

Steve Pov:   The City was falling but I hear a small cry. I round the corner and see a little girl with fiery red hair, who could not be more than eight, she looks terrified. So I get down on my knees to not look as intimidating to her. “It's okay sweety. I'm here to help you, are you hurt? And where are your parents?" I asked her in my calmest voice. The poor thing is shaking so hard; she looks like she's about to pass out. I take that back she just passed out, shit she just passed out!!! What do I do, what do I do? This is not good. “Steve? Are you there? The city is falling get out of there quick." Tony orders. “I'm on my way," I replied while picking the small girl up. She should not be this light, when was the last time she has eaten something? I ran as everything around me crumble to the ground. I had to get to the Helicarrier; not for my safety but for hers. I have never been more scared in my life. This small child is counting on me, to keep her safe, and I might fail her; and that is the most terrifying thought I have ever had. I can see the helicarrier, I still have hope, I can get her to safety. I pull her closer to me as I jump onto the helicarrier, just in time. I find a seat and hug the small girl close to my chest, waiting for her to wake up. I probably should find her parents. How do I even do that, hey is this small child yours? That can in up really bad. So I will just wait until she wakes up to find her parents, yeah that sounds like a good plan. I was so worried about the small girl, that I did not notice Tony walking up. “Why are you holding a small child, Rogers?" Tony asked with confusion. Before I was able to answer him the little girl started to wake up. “Where am I?" She
Asked as she snuggled up closer to me.      
“You're on the helicarrier, sweetheart, what is your name, and how old are you? And do you know where your parents are?" I asked her in what I hope was a soothing voice. “My parents are dead, it's just me now.
I just turned twelve, and my name is Wanda Maxmioff. Who are you?" Wanda replied in a small voice, as she moves even closer to me. How long has she been alone? “Well, Wanda my name is Steve Rogers, and this is my friend Tony Stark. When was the last time you have eaten something?" I just had to ask that question she is too small for her age. When did I get so protective of her? Is this how Tony felt when he adopted Peter, so overly protective? Like if anything happens to Wanda I will kill everyone and then myself.
“I had a piece of bread this morning, Mr. Rogers!" Wanda answered with excitement. A piece of bread okay I need to get her some food before she passes out again. “Tony, can you please go get Ms. Wanda some food?" I asked him with a smile.
“Sure thing Mr. Rogers," Tony said while saluting. “You don't have to call me Ms. Wanda, Mr. Rogers, it's just Wanda," Wanda told me as she began to rub her eyes. “Hey don't fall asleep before you eat, just Wanda, and you don't have to call me
Mr. Rogers," I tell her in a teasing way. She begins to giggle and it's like music to my ears. At that moment Tony comes walking back with snacks. “Okay, capsicles, I found sun chips and gummy worms for the little lady. Oh, I almost forgot a juice box for the pretty Lady too!" Tony said while bowing like Wanda was a princess. Wanda begins to laugh again, I just want to give this small child the world. “Thank you, kind Sir," Wanda replied, still laughing. “Oh, and Rogers we are getting ready to land. The quinjet is waiting for us, so make sure you have everything figured out before we land. And make the right decision, you look happy like this." Tony said with a knowing look. Does he want me to keep her too? Does Wanda even want to come live with me? She hasn't even known me for a day. But it's either I take her home with me and raise her as my daughter or give her to an orphanage, where her family can hurt her. There is only one right answer to that question.
“Wanda sweetheart, how do you feel about coming and living with me and my friends?" I ask her. Why I'm I so scared she going to say no? Wanda drops the gummy bear that she was about to eat. Her bottom lip begins to quiver as she asks me in the smallest voice. “You want me to come live with you?" She full out crying now, and I don't know what to do. So I pull her closer to me and whisper. “Shh, it's okay Wanda I do want you to come live with me." All she said back was a very small “ Yes. I'll have a family again." And that broke my heart, and I know now that I will protect this girl with my life. Just as Wanda was about to fall asleep, Thor's voice thundered out across the helicarrier. “We are landing midguardians, so be seated or risk falling off the helicarrier!" that is one way to get people to sit down.
“Okay, Wanda I'm going to put you right here next to me, while we land, please hold on to my arm so you don't fall off the ship."
I ordered her in a nice, but firm way.
“Mr. Rogers, I mean Steve, I'm scared," Wanda said as she clutched my arm tighter. “Aww, sweetheart you don't have to be scared, Clint is really good at landing plans. I promise everything is going to be all right." Just as I get done telling Wanda that, the plan begins to shake as we finely touch the ground. “Okay honey are you ready to go home?" I ask her, as I put my hand out for her to hold. “Yep! I can't wait to meet all your friends! And can we stay up all night watching movies!?!" Wanda asked me, as she skipped next to me. The smile on her face is lighting up my world.
“I can't wait to introduce you to my friends, they are going to love you! Do you remember Tony?" I waited for her to say yes before I start talking again. “ Well, he has a son who just turned fifteen! Isn't that awesome?!" Told her with just as much excitement. This is the best day of my life!

.. Later on, the quinjet...

Wanda asked me to carry her, and not to put her down. So I'm currently holding a sleeping Wanda as I talk to the team.
“Can I hold her now!" Clint begged.
“For the fifth time Clint, no you have your own kids go home and hold one of them, Wanda is mine. And you can't steal her. Plus she is scared and asked me not to put her down." I whispered angrily at Clint.
All while looking at my baby girl. Wait where did that come from, at that exact moment, I realized I have a kid like I'm a dad now! And it's the best most terrifying thing ever. “Steve, do you really think you're ready for a kid? They are a lot of work. And how are you going to go to the mission if you keep Wanda?" Nat asked me. I felt anger growing inside of me, but before I could answer Tony started talking.
“ He knows kids are a lot of work. He is going to go on mission the same way I do. Did you forget I have a son? I for one think Steve is going to be a wonderful father to Wanda." Once Tony finishes his speech. I look at Nat and say. “ I have never felt this much love than I do now for Wanda. I can't wait to raise her to be a wonderful woman!" I say this all as I hold Wanda tighter. “ Okay, as long as this is what you want to do I'll support you in your decision. as long as she calls me Auntie Nat," Natasha says protectively. That sounds like a great idea to me. My little girl will have a loving family.
