The second story of today as promised. Hope you enjoy samantha2001wwe! Beware of the sadness. 

"You didn't see that coming?" His fiancee asks, meeting Pietro's horrified face. She looked down at the bullet wounds that riddled her body. The little boy that Clint was protecting ran from his arms to his mother, but that didn't matter. All that mattered was that his fiancee, the one who truly loved him more than herself was on the floor bleeding out. 

As he raced toward her, he could hear Clint shouting over the comms, but that didn't matter now. He scooped her up in his arms, feeling her heartbeat slow. Her eyes meet his, and he couldn't stop the tears from falling from his eyes. He had just got her back. Why did it have to be her?

As she gulped down air, he could feel her hands reach towards his face. Towards the tears the splattered against the floor with large splashes. She took her thumb trying to wipe away his sadness. Even in her dying moments, she just wanted to see him happy. 

He tried to give her a smile, but he couldn't. Not while he could feel her warm blood coat his fingers. Not while he could feel her pulse weaken and her breath grow shallow-too shallow. She opened her mouth to tell him something, but she couldn't get any words out. All she could muster was a chocked wheeze of a breathe.

And then there was silence.

No more beating heart. No more shallow breathes. No more choked wheezes. 

Only silence...and the sound of a heart shattering.

Wanda screamed out in pain as she felt her brother's sadness. The guilt that pounder against his heart. The fact that she died instead of him. Wanda screamed as her brother fell into a pit of despair. She cried out in agony as the drops of water fell down his cheeks and onto the ground forming ponds of depression. 

The fighting stopped. Even Ultron, as heartless as he could be, could feel the overwhelming emotion cloud the air. Pietro stood up, fists clenched. It was the robot who killed her. The robot who ripped her heart away from him. It was the robot who was going to pay. 

In a blue flash of blur, all of Ultron's robots had been destroyed. Torn limb from limb, by the man faster than a jet. The man who had just lost his one and only soulmate. Even Ultron knew that his mistake was going to mean the end for him. That by killing the speedster's fiancee, he had invertible killed himself. But that didn't matter. Not to the boy who had just watched his world die in front of him.

                     My Dearest Pietro,

     It was never my intention to leave you. To let you face the challenges of life by yourself. It's was supposed to be the two of us. Like we promised each other. And yet, I failed you. I'm sorry, Love, that not all  promises can be fulfilled. I'm sorry that I left you alone to the harsh world that we both never wanted to be without each other in. 

You are my world, Pietro, and nothing will change us. No matter how much distance we have between us. No matter if I leave you early. Or if you leave me. Selfishly, I don't want to say that you should move on. Selfishly, I want to say that I will love you forever and that I know that you will love me. Selfishly, I want to keep you all to myself and not let you go. But, if you are reading this letter, it means that I'm not here. 

We had our troubles. yes. But we also created something much more than that. A safe haven for each other. For life beyond ours. Pietro, we created life...

I know you never wanted a child. I know that you were terrified of being a father. That you were worried that you'd never be able to give your child a life that you thought they deserved. Love, you were more than all I could ask. All that I ask in return is for you to meet your child. If after you meet him you still don't think that you could be a good father, I have some people he can live with. But Pietro, my dearest love, please just let him see your face. 

Let him know that you have a father.

As more than your fiancee, please know that I love you. I love you more than life itself and that is why I did what I did. I can't imagine a world without you, so I gave up my world so that our world could still have you. The Avengers need you. Wanda needs you. I need you. Your son needs you. 

I'll always be there. Whenever you smirk, I'll be smiling down from up in the clouds. Whenever you laugh, my heart will shine brighter than the sun. When you look up at me, I'll look down at you. And I promise that no matter what happens, I love you with all of my heart.

Your Dearest,

Y/n L/n

"Hi," Pietro whispered looking down at the infant that was squirming around in the nursery. The boy looked up at the man and stopped squirming. He reached out towards the speedster. Something inside the speedster told him to pick up the baby. So he did.

The baby gurgled as Pietro held him up to his chest. As the child looked up at him, he could see how much the baby reminded him of y/n. The same twinkle is his little e/c eyes and same button nose. The baby touched his cheeks, wiping away a stray tear that Pietro hadn't notice. The baby put his head against Pietro's heart, and somewhere -somehow- Pietro knew that y/n was smiling down at him.
