The Thirst We Share [Wanda x Natasha x Reader]

Chapter 4

It was early in the morning, very early morning. You were already up and out of your new bed. This place is still new to you, infact the whole experience is. Living with company is not something you'd imagine. Unless it was with that special someone.

You found your way to the kitchen, popping your head into any cupboards to see what their contents were. It's not like you were hungry, just curious. Eventually, you sat back on a sofa in the living space, switching the TV on after you took some time to figure it out. You put a random sitcom on, careful not to put the volume too high, since it was still about half four in the morning. For you, sleep is not a necessity considering your background. You'd find out soon if anyone was an early bird.

About an hour passed and she felt a presence of a figure. She turned to see who it was.

"Woah. Edward. You're early, how long you been here." His first words were about a reference to some film, which you did infact understand, but he was met with a quiet response.

"Uhh... anyway, I was just searching for something. And I found it! Here's an IKEA catalogue." Dropping the heavy book on the coffee table.

"I was gonna give it you later but since you're here now, circle the pieces you want, everything will be here by tomorrow." He smiled, pulling a black marker out his pocket.

You had a pleasant look on your face. Maybe a team wasn't so bad you thought. "Thanks. Tony."

Before he turned away he mentioned another thing. "Oh since it's my- your party tonight. I already got you an outfit. Sorry, I'm just excited. The others generally aren't very fond of them. It's been a while I guess... anyway, It's red. Blood red. You know, so it will match with the blood of whoever you plan on sinking your fangs into." He was amused at his own jokes. But you couldn't help but curve your lips into a little grin.

"Careful with what you say Stark. It might just be you tonight." You joked.

"Haha. Good one. And one last thing. On the inside cover of the catalogue are my card details, you can shop online for now, for other things and clothes. Or if you really want you can go out."

"Alright. Thanks again Tony."

"Don't mention it. Have fun watching The Office." He left without turning back. You wondered why he was even awake at this early in the morning, now about twenty to six.

After an episode or two, you did decide to scan the thick book Tony gave you. Occasionally cirling some items with the pen. That was then interrupted by another figure.

"I didn't catch you for the sitcom type". The feminine voice starlted you, jolting a little, the item you circled went all across the page.

"I just put on what I could find... but I have a different series which was my favourite..." you responded while carrying on cirlcling some more products in the cataloge. You were met with the sort of silence that either meant she was waiting for you to carry on, or that she was just quiet and watching the show still playing, you didn't bother looking up at her to see.

"You might not know it, it's called the the Dick Van Dyke show. It's quite old. I was already around when it started airing... I even managed to watch it live. I was able to be a part of the live audience for a few episodes." Still met with silence you finally looked up to see Wanda on your side with a smile you haven't quite seen before. "What?"

"Nothing... I... that was one of my favourites growing up. I enjoyed watching it with my family, it also helped me when I was learning english." Occasionally you'd hear an accent in her voice, you wondered where it was from. This time you replied without a sound, but rather with a smile instead. "So, what are you doing up this early?" She asked, it was now 6am.
