[ ⭑ ] / it was other days like this that he rarely ever thought twice about, usually few & far between, he never got the chance to 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲 them. they were just a stepping stone towards the next mission, the next trip, some other 𝙳𝙴𝚂𝚃𝙸𝙽𝙰𝚃𝙸𝙾𝙽 that wasn’t right then in the moment. but when he was with wanda, it didn’t feel like that middle ground; he wasn’t anticipating 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞, no longer trying to strategize silently in his mind. he was simply there, with her, the two of them together. & maybe one day he’ll 𝙼𝙰𝙽 𝚄𝙿 enough to say it. not now, though !
it was all so normal that he seemed to get caught up in it, how right it felt. like this little moment in time was an every day occurrence for them in another life. (𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞, or realm, or 𝚆𝙷𝙰𝚃𝙴𝚅𝙴𝚁 the galaxy had in store. ) had the cold beer in his hands, mostly to play normal, sometimes for the taste, didn’t even bring it up to his lips yet before gaze shifted towards her with a thanks falling from his lips. eyes only averted for a second before they traveled back. taking 𝙸𝚃 𝙰𝙻𝙻 𝙸𝙽, like he’d never seen anything clearer before in his life. like she was the vision he’d been 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 from the ice to find.
gaze was soft, unfamiliar. uncharted territories begging to be let out. didn’t even 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞 he was doing it, though he very much was. but before his thoughts could cement 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐬, voice brought him to the forefront again. could probably see the haze lift from his cerulean’s, stupid smile plastered to cover up any other emotion. ❝𝙻𝙸𝙺𝙴 𝚆𝙷𝙰𝚃 ?[ … ] i know i’m the old man, but you should really get your eyes checked. ❞ nervous laugh comes forth, though another glance given without hesitation, like he didn’t even think about it. then brings the 𝙰𝙻𝙲𝙾𝙷𝙾𝙻 to his lips like it’ll somehow help him. ( it never did. )
HER BENT KNEE KEPT BALANCING ON TOP OF HIS KNEE. the balance was enough to keep her mind from getting too distracted. the wandered - off of her eyes to the curve of his smile, the planes of the face, the lift of his brows. SHE WANTED TO COMMIT TO MEMORY THIS MOMENT. he should be somewhere else, somewhere better than this. wanda was about to sip her tea when she saw it in his eyes. BRIGHT BLUE ! she laughed and everything was normal for the most fleeting of moments. ❝ there it is again! ❞
her knee slides off his, and her body dropped down next to him with her shoulders squared to his. dark eyes turned lighter as she looked at him, sighing as she rested her elbow on the back of the couch and started to tug her fingers through her messy curls. WANDA TRIED NOT TO GET HER HOPES UP. she hated to be disappointed, and the witch knew that feeling better than anyone. it should be good enough to be so close to him, and she swallowed down any butterflies that might start to flutter. she took a sip of her tea.
here we go, working to make things worse. wanda preferred grief, at least it was conventional. ❝ do you wish to go back? you know, if you could. ❞
