💘 + our babies! ( perhaps if they grew up childhood friends / crushes? )
where they first met and how
At school. In a nice, little ‘my-family-is-alive-and-well’ AU, the Maximoffs coming over to the U.S. when Pietro and Wanda are very young to get away from Sokovia as it became more of a warzone.
Pietro and Wanda keep to themselves while going to school which makes other kids call them weird until Nick, sensing their misfit status, approaches and gets to know them.
Introducing them to his friends, the three of them grow up together and soon Wanda and Nick start developing feelings for each other and the rest is history.
how long their ‘flirting’ phase was before feelings got involved
I imagine their flirting phase was initially just friendly/teasing for a little while. Not really much to read into until feelings got involved and Wanda began to get butterflies.
who fell for who first ( if applicable )
Maybe Nick? He notices the little things that Wanda does and it makes him fall a little bit more in love with her every day.
where their first date was and what it was like
Neither were really able to afford much, so their first date was grabbing lunch and coffee and going for a walk in the park. Simple as it sounds, it was romantic and incredibly endearing for Wanda.
who asks who out and how ( with a sign? spelled out on a cake? just a simple ‘will you go out with me’? )
Nick asks Wanda, and does so simply. Wanda appreciates the straightforwardness.
Wanda was going to until Nick beat her to it. Friends and family are not surprised, and wonder what took so long.
if they keep / kept their relationship secret or let everyone know right away
Growing up as childhood sweethearts, I think it might be one of situations where everybody thought they were dating anyway and would probably end up getting married down the road?? So it doesn’t really come as much of a surprise like I mentioned, but everyone is elated and happy for them.
where the proposal happens and how ( kiss cam at a baseball game? on a hillside surrounded by ducks? at a disney park? )
Of all places, it happens in bed. Taking in the other’s gentle features while cuddling during a snow storm, Nick asks and with no hesitation Wanda says yes.
if they adopt any pets together
I can see them adopting maybe a cat or two!
Eh, idk why I don’t really see either of them as being a dominant person in the relationship lol
where their first kiss was and what it was like
It sounds cliché but maybe under the bleachers after school? Or maybe Nick walks Wanda home one day ( whether after class or after hanging out or whatever ) and it just happens in front her apartment building?
It turns out to be one of those moments that just felt right for both people. Wanda remembers their first kiss as sickeningly sweet and gentle.
if they have any matching couples stuff ( mugs? sweaters? pillowcases? )
I can totally see them having matching robes, as odd as that sounds lol I’d say sweaters too, especially if it’s like this one, but Wanda will take and wear all of Nick’s sweaters anyway so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ lol
See also: ‘his’ and ‘her’ coffee mugs
I’m not sure either are big on PDA other than holding hands or small pecks on the lips here and there.
who holds the umbrella when it rains
Nick. He’s a totally gentlemen and Wanda loves him for it.
where their usual ‘date spot’ is ( if applicable )
Probably Wanda but just marginally.
how long it is before they sleep together ( can be as in ‘had sex’ or as in ‘shared a bed’ )
It doesn’t take very long for either, to be honest. I can totally see them sharing a bed first though, for whatever reason, maybe a sleepover, before having sex. And, you know, being incredibly patient, Nick waited for Wanda until she was ready to engage in any kind of sexual activity. With that said, Wanda knew pretty early on that Nick was the first and only person that she wanted to start any of that with. But I digress lol
if they argue about anything
I think the main one would be Wanda withdrawing and being holed up with her thoughts and not sharing them which infuriates Nick since they’re supposed to be partners who tell each other everything. He’s very receptive and patient with her but sometimes she just doesn’t feel like indulging and/or burdening him with her problems or feelings.
who leaves more marks ( lipstick, hickeys, scratchmarks etc. )
Wanda, Wanda, Wanda. That’s not to say Nick doesn’t engage in leaving love bites or scratchmarks, but Wanda is definitely the one who does these things more often.
who steals whose clothes and how often
Wanda will steal Nick’s clothes, especially his sweaters and coats, and she does it often. They’re hella warm and smell like him.
how they cuddle ( spooning? facing each other? )
Sometimes they face each other but more often than not, it’s spooning.
what their favourite nonsexual activity is
Listening to their favorite music together ( Nick and Wanda’s awesome playlist, anyone? )
Nick playing Wanda trumpet / Wanda listening to Nick play
Cuddles ( especially in bed on cold mornings )
how long they stay mad at each other
Not for very long. Being mad for any length of time upsets Wanda, so after taking some time to cool down, they eventually kiss and make up.
what their usual coffee / tea orders are
Iced black coffee for her, and mochas for him
if they ever have any children together
No, not currently? As much as it scares Wanda to have children, her and Nick probably spend time talking about it and planning and putting their ducks in a row; but after, once the time is right and everything....... I don’t think there’s anything that will stop them from going at it tbh lol but that’s if they even want kids ofc!
if they have any special pet names for each other
Not really. They just call each other everyday terms of endearment like ‘love,’ ‘hon,’ ‘sweetie,’ etc.
if they ever split up and / or get back together
Nooo, no. No splitting up in this house lol
what their shared living space is like ( messy? clean? what kind of decor? )
Their shared living space is incredibly clean and tidy. The decor is minimalistic but homey and comfortable.
what their first christmas / hanukkah / etc as a couple was like
Relaxing and romantic. Kissing under the mistletoe, listening to jazz, decorating the tree and stringing up lights on their balcony. Filling their home with happy memories.
what their names are in each other’s phones
Wanda’s name for Nick: ‘my love’ in Sokovian
Nick’s name for Wanda: ‘love of my life’
if they have any ‘couple traditions’ ( buying a new mug for their collection every year? baking every friday evening? )
Couple traditions would be going for walks during the holiday season and looking at the beautiful decorations that people put up every year and baking cookies. Also, taste testing coffees/mochas/cappuccinos that the other makes - Wanda thinks hers are the best but Nick doesn’t go down without a fight.
who falls asleep first and who wakes up first
Wanda for both? She might wake up first, but depending on how cold it is outside, she’ll stay in bed and fall back to sleep in the small bubble of warmth she shares with Nick when they’re in bed together.
who’s the big spoon / little spoon
I don’t think either really hog the bathroom unless Wanda is tired in the morning and takes her time getting ready.
who kills the spiders / takes them outside
In this case, both are inclined to kill the spiders
