Life Happens

Natasha

"We are getting reports that Pietro Maximoff the twin brother of the Avenger Wanda Maximoff or as she's more commonly know as the Scarlet Witch is being transferred as we speak. He was tragically injured while saving another Avenger Hawkeye and a small child during the Sokovia tragedy nearly seven months ago. We currently are unaware as to where he is going but rumour has it it is the Avengers Facility.

Natasha turned the TV off. It had been less than an hour since the team had been told that he was being transferred and already the journalist had themselves a story. Vultures. That's what journalists are. Natasha turned around and saw Lila and Cooper looking up at her with grins on their faces.

"Is it true?" Lila asked rocking on her feet.

"Is what true?" Natasha said as she moved around the pair.

"That Pietro's coming here." Cooper said following her. Natasha sighed. These kids were too much like Clint.

"Yes its true but you won't be able to see him for a bit."

"Aww why?" They said at the same time.

"Number one, he's still in a coma. Number two, I don't think your dad wants you to see him like that and number three, Wanda should spend sometime alone with him." The pair rolled their eyes before running off. "Don't get into trouble!" Natasha shouted after them.

"They seem to have a lot of energy." A man said from behind her. She turned around and smiled.

"Bruce? When did you get here?" Natasha asked as she hugged him.

"About ten minutes ago. I'm only stopping for a couple of days before I'm off to my last couple of conferences and then I can stop and relax." Bruce said smiling back at her.

"You work way too hard. Tea?" Natasha asked pulling away.

"Yes please and maybe I work too hard but all of that will be over soon. Also is all this on the news true about Pietro?" He asked her as he Natasha started to brew his tea.

"Oh yeah. Amazing isn't it?" Natasha replied.

"Indeed how's Clint feel about it?" He asked.

"He's hiding it very well but I can tell he's happy. So fancy carrying on with Supernatural?" She asked with a smile.

Natasha was sat in her room watching the news.

"We are still waiting for a statement from the Avengers regarding Pietro Maximoff." The reporter said as she stood outside the hospital that Pietro was in. "The possible Avenger was being treated here after being injured at Sokovia." The newsreader carried on saying. Possible Avenger? Where on earth did they get that idea from? Natasha thought to herself when there was a knock at the door interrupting her thoughts. Natasha turned the TV off and opened the door.

Wanda burst through the door as soon as it opened and wrapped her arms around Natasha. Natasha held Wanda in her arms for a few moments before Wanda spoke.

"He's here. He's actually here." She whispered into Natasha neck. "You have to see him." Wanda said pulling away.

"Wanda are you sure? Don't you want to be alone?" Natasha said looking at Wanda dead in eyes.

Wanda's shoulders sagged. "I need someone there so I know it's real." She replied quietly. Natasha nodded. She figured that it was almost too good to be true for Wanda.

"Lets go." Natasha smiled.

The last time Natasha had seen Pietro it had been just after he'd nearly died. Back then he looked like he was on deaths door and now he looked almost normal. That was insane as to how fast he'd healed. She looked around the what was once a storage room. Plain white tiles were laid on the floor with pale grey painted walls. In the middle of the room was Pietro's bed and a chair either side. Wanda sat in the chair on his left and held his hand.
