The Family Business CH. 6

"What um... what number are you guys staying in? Do you know?" You ask, finally breaking the silence as you arrived at the building.

"220," Natasha answers for them.

You nod, "I'm in 216, we'll be right across from each other."

The ride in the elevator was as silent as the car ride. The anger that was permeating off of Wanda had slightly reduced, but not by much. When the elevator opens, you escort the women to their apartment.

You point across the hall then say, "Well this is you and that is me if you need anything you can always knock."

You attempt to walk away, but a soft grip around your wrist stops you. Your gaze slowly rises to meet Wanda's. She pulls you into her and the warmth of her embrace let's you know that she'll be alright.

"Goodnight little krolik," she kisses the top of your head before making her way into her new home.

"She's going to be ok right?" You ask Natasha and she smiles softly at you.

"I'll make sure of it lisichka. Go rest, you've had an eventful day. "

Its like her words trigger a yawn from your lips. Exhaustion is finally catching up to you properly.

"Goodnight, Nat."

Once you go into your condo you sigh. The quiet finally getting the best of you. Though you were exhausted your mind was racing. Car chase, Wanda, Natasha, dinner, it all hit you at once. Despite your thoughts you attempt to get ready for bed.

Your phone buzzes on the nightstand as soon as your head hits the pillow. It's a text from Dragos calling for a meeting tomorrow at 9am. You put the phone back down and shut your eyes. This would all feel easier to deal with in the morning.

When your alarm rings at 7 am, you are quick to shut it off. Your sleep had been restless, and you feel the previous nights events weighing heavily on your shoulders. Nonetheless you stumble out of your bed.

After you brush your teeth, you throw on a pair of sweats to get your morning run in before the meeting. Usually, you'd do a run followed by a more rigorous workout, but you were short on time.

Your mind is clear as you begin to run away from the condo. Your only thoughts are focusing on your breathing.

Gloom hadn't yet left the city. Though it wasn't raining yet you wouldn't be surprised if it started up later. Traffic seemed light, not a lot of cars were passing you on the road. The cool air was welcomed against your face as your body temperature slowly rose with each stride.

For a small moment in time, you were at peace. Part of you wished to skip the meeting and just take a lazy day. However, that wasn't an option because you didn't work in a regular job field. The non-negotiables of your profession were few but harsh. While you knew the Maximoff's were lenient with you, you never craved to take advantage of that.

When you arrive back to your building, you quickly shower and dress. You had just finished doing your hair when your doorbell rang. Opening the door, you are met by a familiar red head, who seems to be in a better mood than last night.

"Morning little krolik, I come with coffee and a bagel."

You smile, "The occasion?"

"I was hoping we'd carpool to work."

You nod a few times, "Of course, just let me grab my coat and we can head out."

Quickly you grab your belongings and follow Wanda to her car. You quietly munch on the bagel during the car ride.
