Enemies With Benefits

My Little Witch

Fingers drummed against the frame of the bed as you impatiently sat in your cell, bored out of your mind as there was nothing to do. You had started to try and get out of the cell, finding a successful way to somehow malfunction the lock but a certain redhead with a smug smirk would come in moments later telling you to stop. You reminded Natasha how boring she was every time she stopped you from trying to get out and soon enough you stopped bothering. Maybe it had only been a few hours since you were put in the cell, but that didn't mean you weren't on the verge of dying of boredom.

You had opted to think about random things to waste time such as would it be better to be an ant or a fly, to be able to speak all languages or speak to animals, to be able to shapeshift or turn invisible. It was safe to say you were already losing your mind but then a new visitor came in.

"Well if it isn't the little witch," you greet, sitting up from the bed and looking at the woman who was standing outside the glass. "Come to shout at me or demand something from me?" you tease, her not answering you and unlocking the cell before walking in. You froze in your spot as she walked up to you, her hand brushing part of your hair back and fingers ghosting over the bruise that was forming on your face.

"I'm sorry," she whispered, your eyes softening at her tone but brows furrowing in confusion. You opened your mouth to speak but she placed her finger on your mouth to shush you. "Let me finish before you speak, please," you give her a gentle nod, her letting out a deep breath before moving her finger but keeping her hands cupping your face. "I'm sorry for the way I ended things between us," she could feel your jaw tense under her touch at the mention of that night, her unaware of how you had drowned yourself in as much alcohol as possible to forget her, "I shouldn't have treated you the way I did and or said the things I did. It was only meant to be just sex between us," her green eyes longingly gazed into your eyes while she spoke, you listening to everything she said. "But it was more than that to me, I... I realised in the past month how much I missed you, the way you make me feel, the way you care for me. I missed you and hated myself for just leaving things the way they were." She moved to kneel in front of you, your faces more level as she didn't want to tower over your sitting form.

"I know we're not perfect but I want us to be more," you could see the anxious look on her face as she confessed to you, "I want to be your little witch properly, not some friends with benefits sort of thing."

"You mean enemies with benefits," you tease with a small smile, her looking at you with a soft look, "Sorry, you're not finished yet." You motioned for her to continue and she let out a small laugh at the apologetic look on your face.

"As I was trying to say," you could hear the humour in her tone, "I want you, all of you." You tensed under her touch, her face quickly switching to concern as you looked away from her.

"You can't want all of me," you whisper, voice cracking a little, "You don't know what I've done." Flashes of your past as a Hydra worker raced through your mind, the innocent people you tortured and slaughtered causing a pang of guilt to weigh heavily in your chest.

"That doesn't matter," she tries to reassure, "You're trying to be better and that's what counts."

"You still don't know me though," you feel her guide your face back to hers.

"I know you are a funny, kind, and caring person who wants to make the world a safer place, a person who deeply cares for the people they know." You remain silent for a moment before speaking up.

"What's my favourite colour?" you ask, proving that she doesn't know you.

"Red?" she queries, tilting her head slightly as she thinks.

"Green," the colour of your eyes , you reply, her furrowing her brows at your next words, "See, you don't know me."

"Well if you gave me the chance, I could get to know you like that," hope glints in her eyes as she looks at you, her hands moving to hold yours, her thumb brushing over the back of them.

"You'll end up hurt," you warn, her just shaking her head gently at you.

"That's a risk I'm willing to take," she murmurs softly.

"What if it's one I'm not willing to take?" Wanda's face falls as you speak, "I can't get hurt by you again, I don't want to know what I'd be capable of if I felt like that again." During the last month on your missions, you had been merciless and going too far in your torture, expressing the rage you felt towards the witch on your victim. It always ended in too much bloodshed.

"I never want to hurt you again," you can hear the genuineness dripping from her voice, "I can't lose you again, please just give me a chance."

You look at her and thought carefully about what your answer would be. You had never felt the warmth you experience when you were with her, the happiness you felt when you would make her laugh with a sarcastic comment, your unannounced visits on her missions that would end up with you placing soft kisses along her naked body as she tried to steady her breathing, the joy you felt when taking care of her. The doubts gnawed at the back of your mind, screaming at you to warn you of the danger if you ended up hurt again but your mind could only focus on the way she made you feel. It was worth the risk.

You answered her by leaning forwards, pressing your lips gently against hers, the kiss slow and full of emotion as you cupped her cheeks and held her close. You pulled back, placing your forehead against hers, closing your eyes to enjoy the moment.

"My little witch," you murmured before moving back in for another kiss. You were trusting her with your heart and just hoped she would never break it.

" Your  little witch."
