Wanda Maximoff x Reader | One Shots

What Did You Do?

Wanda had been away on a mission for a week with Steve and Sam and was expected to return today. You had been pacing around the common room all day, impatiently waiting for their safe arrival.

You looked out the window and saw the moon illuminate the night sky. You were starting to think your girlfriend and the others wouldn't show up today, and that made you nervous.

Just as you were about to spiral, you saw two bright lights in the sky headed your way and you let out a breath you didn't even know you were holding. You recognized the headlights instantly as belonging to the quinjet. FRIDAY announced that Steve, Sam, and Wanda were onboard, healthy and that their arrival was imminent.

You wanted to go down and help them, mainly Wanda, with their bags, but FRIDAY made another announcement for you saying that Wanda had requested you stay upstairs. Even though you really wanted to see her, you obeyed.

You heard the elevator ding and got excited to see Wanda and get an answer as to why she had you stay upstairs. To your disappointment, Steve was the only one in the elevator. You shared quick hellos and a hug before he went on his way to his room.

The elevator dinged again and both Sam and Wanda exited through the doors. Wanda didn't come running towards you as she usually did and you started to worry.

"Wands, is everything okay?"
"Y/n, don't be mad at me," Wanda said cautiously.
"Then don't give me a reason to be mad," you retorted.
She remained silent and avoided eye contact with you.
"What did you do?" you dragged out the last syllable.
"Well, uhm, I, uhh-"
"Oh my god, Wanda, please just spit it out!"

She swiftly moved to open her bag and took something out of it very carefully.

You were shocked, to say the least, at what was being held in front of you.

In her hands was a puppy. A golden lab puppy. Wanda brought home a puppy. That's what she did.

"I found it on our mission. Well, it found me, but, I- I'll tell you later. Can we keep him?"
"Wanda, I don't know if-"
"Pleaseeeeee," she said with her best puppy dog eyes and brought the puppy even closer to you.

Double puppy eyes. How could you say no?

"Alright." You rolled your eyes and smiled and made grabby hands towards the puppy. Wanda came closer to you and gently placed the surprisingly calm pup in your arms. He instantly cuddled up against you and your smile grew.

Wanda came and stood behind you, wrapping her arms around your waist and kissing your cheek. "I missed you."

"I missed you too, my love," you said, your eyes never leaving the puppy, "I think we need to go shopping."

Luckily, the three of them got a few supplies after the mission to last for at least that night, but the next day, you, Wanda, and your puppy went shopping for food, an abundance of toys, a cozy bed, treats, and more.

After you got back from shopping, you couldn't help but notice how clingy Wanda was to the dog. She had only known the puppy for a few days but seemed to have gotten quite attached to the little guy, who still needed a name.

"How about Bruiser?" Wanda thought aloud as she played tug of war with the puppy.

"Who are you? Elle Woods?" you laughed at her suggestion, "I think we can do better than that."

"Okay... what about just simply Boy?" she asked genuinely.

"You're not Sharpay Evans either, darling."

A thought popped into your head and you weren't sure if Wanda would go for it, but you needed to try. "What if we named him Steve?"

As soon as you asked that, the puppy barked.
