Fine line |pietro maximoff x oc|

I haven't released 'only you' yet, I really want to but I don't really think it's good.

I grabbed my phone and texted Peter this song
"Do you think this song is good?"

He left me on read, most likely reviewing it.

I went to French braided my hair before my phone dinged.
"Is it for Pietro?"
"It's that obvi?"
"Yep."

"You should release it, it's scrumptious"
"I'll think about it. I'll ask Morgan before I release it"

I went to Morgan's room, she was playing Just Dance with Cassie. I smiled and watched them dance.

When the song finished Morgan fell into the ground and smiled at me "you're a good dancer" I said while crawling towards her.

Cassie was jumping a little, clearly hyper, most likely qfrom those brownies.

"I need your opinion on a song" I handed her my tape and she happily grabbed it, she clicked the tape button.

She listened to it and gave me a look "daddy said Pietro and you were dating. Is this for Piet" She asked.

I blushed "yes, yes it is. But don't tell him" I shushed her and she giggled. Cassie listened to it and liked it as well.

"You should show Pietro the song" Cassie slightly smiled "not yet, I think I'll leave it a mystery" I stood up and did just dance with them for about an hour before Scott came in.

"Your child's energetic" I gave Scott a look "blame your dad" he smirked.

"What's this song?" He asked when he saw the tape with the name on it. "Only you, a song I'm thinking of releasing it"

He played the song and jammed "release it. Pietro would love it"

I smiled and took it to my room, I connected it to my computer and added it to the album called "sucker for love" which has a few songs.

I posted a tease of the playlist on instagram before going to Pietro's room, I knocked and went in to see him on instagram.

He smiled and put down his phone to held me by the waist and put his head on my stomach while I was standing and he's sitting.

I played with his hair while he smiled "wanna go to the beach?" He asked.

I hesitated for a minute, if we went I'd have to wear my bathing suit and I use makeup to cover the scars, the water will take off the makeup. During our sex I had makeup over the scars, I think he was too focused on me to notice it.

I didn't want to make him sad or disappoint him though.

"Sure" he lifted his head and smiled at me before standing up.

He kissed me and gripped onto my butt. I smiled before going to my room.

I put a hoodie over my bathing suit before telling dad we were going to the beach, it was kinda cold because it was February but whatever.

"I call dibs driving!" I ran past Pietro and stole the keys from his hand. He snickered before speeding in front of the car door and trying to grab the key.

"I drive" I hummed and pushed him aside "fine Princessa but if I die, it's your fault" he joked.

"Haha. Like you're a good driver either" I rolled my eyes sarcastically.

"I'm better than you" he was so cocky sometimes.

I started the car, it would be an hour drive.

We blasted music and sang out loud to some songs while on the Highway with the windows down.

"Mummy don't know daddy's getting hot, at the body shop, doing something unholy" we sang out loud.

"he's sat back while she's dropping it, she be popping it. Yeah, she be putting it down slowly" y yelled. "Oh ee oh eeoh, he left his kids at ho ee oh ee ome so he can get that" Pietro yelled.

"Mummy don't know daddy's getting hot, at the body shop, doing something unholy" We shouted.

We sang a few more songs before one of my songs came on. I gasped and turned it up even higher "oh my gosh! I didn't think this made it!" I cheered.

Pietro smiled widely before looking at the name "I'm my head? I haven't heard this one" he looked at me before we got to a red light. "I made it when I was 16, 3 weeks before Damian beat me half to death" I painfully smiled.

A tape record voice started in the beginning "here's the thing: you're in love with a version of a person you've created in your head that you are trying to, but cannot fix"

"Uh, the only thing you can fix is yourself. I love you, this has gone on for way too long. Enough is enough. I'm two blocks away I'm coming over"

This was actually a call Peter made to me, the voice is just different though. He noticed the signs after doing a mental health lesson and wasn't going to let me silently cry for help anymore.

Peter saved me.

"Painted a picture, I thought I knew you well. I got a habit of seeing what's not there" I sung.

"Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets. Tangled up in your sheets
When you broke my heart"

"I said you only wanted half of me"

I smiled at Pietro and he smiled back.

"My imagination's too creative, They see demon,
I see angel, angel, angel without a halo, wingless angel falling, falling"

I continued singing the song and Pietro's eyes got watery a little while looking at the lyrics on the radio screen.

"What made you create this song?" He asked.

"I made it when Damian first started abusing me. I ignored his flaws and red flags, I couldn't see it because I created a version of him that wasn't real. the call in the beginning was something that Peter called me about, he saw the signs but I didn't" I told Pietro. He gave me a sad look before grabbing my hand.

I smiled and kissed him at the next red light.

We got to the beach and got out.

We got a spot at the beach, put the cooler and towels down before he took off his shirt. I looked at his abs and he smirked "nice view? I know" he kissed my neck before he went to lift my hoodie.

I stopped him "pietro. Before- y'know before we go into the water I need to tell you something" I grabbed his hand.

"You know how you have hookups as a coping skill and it's kinda a different way of self harm, well my way of coping and self harming is different.  And it's ok if you don't love me anymore because of it. I understand, it's not really pretty but it helps me" I kept eye contact. He burrowed his eyebrows.

"I physically self harm" I softly said. His eyes filled with sadness before he reached for the bottom of my hoodie.

He lifted it off of me and looked at the bottom of my hips and my pelvis.

He sighed before grabbing my waist and pulling me into a hug. He rested his chin on my head and I felt him rub my back.

"I still love you and I always will, but just promise, please promise me you'll go to me if you have any thought about it. Even if you don't want to talk to me about it, at least go to Peter, or your parents. I care about your safety, and you a lot." He said after breaking the hug.

I nodded and looked down before he lifted my chin "you're still as beautiful as you were before. You don't need makeup to cover your scars, the scars just mean you're a survivor and you're here today because something or someone is stopping you from doing it" he softly said.

I smiled and kissed him deeply "thank you, Pietro, I really mean it. You are amazing and I would honestly be dead if I never met you. No literally, Damian would've ended me in that hallway" I giggled a little before he dragged me to the water.
