The first time they met, it didn't go so well. Nothing disastrous but it was just after defeating Ultron and Carol being Nat's best friend and being herself, she was nothing but cold toward the little witch, even after Nat told her it was okay, that she didn't hold it against Wanda. It didn't stop Carol from staring with dark eyes at Wanda any time she could. Wanda being Wanda, she, of course, felt it any time too and slouched further in whatever she was doing at the moment, trying to disappear from the blonde's sight.

« Carol, you can't keep on blocking her like this. » Wanda overheard one afternoon while she was coming back from her training session with Steve. She was beaten and tired and really really wanted to shower, but Nat's voice and her sentence made her stop on the spot.

« I can and I will Nat »

Carol.

« I know it is because- »

« It's because she hurt you. How can you trust her after this? She can do it again, and this time I'll be here to stop her. »

« She is just a kid who made the wrong choices! We all did at one point, you did too! Of all people, you should know what's like to fight on the bad side and realize it after. If someone could understand, it's you! Come on Carol. »

Long silence. A sigh.

« I... make no promises. But I'll try to. »

« Thank you, Carol, »

And Wanda didn't know why but she suddenly felt a lot better.

***

She is sitting outside the OT. Still in shock. Her baby blue jacket stained with blood. Tears continuously rolling down her face when the nurse reaches her.

« Ms. Maximoff? »

She doesn't respond.

« Ms. Maximoff? »

Slowly, she comes back to reality and looks at the nurse.

« Ms. Maximoff, the doctor has called you to his cabin. » the nurse says. '

She nods, wipes her tears and follows the nurse to the doctor's cabin. She picks up all the courage left in her body and knocks at the door.

« Come in. » the doctor shouts.

She pushes the door and finds the doctor looking at some papers.

« Oh yes. Ms. Maximoff. Please come and sit down in the chair. »

She pulls the chair and sits down. She is ready to hear what the doctor is about to say. At least she thinks so.

« Ms. Maximoff.......I don't know how to say this. »

Her eyes wide and she puts her hand on her mouth. She can already hear them. She can already hear the words which are going to destroy her.
