Y/n giggled quietly as Pietro slowly lead her around. She kept her eyes shut, even though she knew that even with them open she wouldn't be able to see through his hands. She let out an ouf as Pietro walked her into a table.

"Ah, sorry!" They both laughed as they came to a halt. Pietro leaned down and whispered in her ear.

"You ready Princesca? 3... 2... 1...! Surprise!" He flung his hands off her face, giving her vision back, to reveal a poster on their wall. Y/n started tearing up as she read it aloud.

"That face when you're a mega patriotic proud papa." She turned away from Steve's face photoshopped onto a woman with the other avenger's faces on small children. She wrapped her arms around Pietro's neck and kissed him on the cheek.

"It's perfect, thank you."

~~~ time skip brought to you by mean girls ~~~

Y/n smiled as the tv played. She was snuggled against Pietro and they were both underneath a fuzzy blanket. Wife swap had never been so good. Pietro looked down at Y/n with a goofy grin.

"Princesca?" Y/n looked up at him.

"Yah?"

"What do you think of us getting married?"

Y/n sat still, frozen.

"Honestly, I kinda forget that we're not already married."

"So you would want to marry me?" Y/n sat up and looked at him.

"Of course I do. But this better not be your proposal, because I know you can do better." She chuckled as he cupped her face with his hand.

"As long as I'm with you, I couldn't possibly be doing any better." He leaned in and kissed her.

Once again, their lives felt perfect.

Y/n opened the door to see Pietro sitting at their table. He had his head hung low and was facing away from her. She dropped her keys into a bowl and walked over.

"Hey, are you okay?" He was silent as he slid an iPad over to her. She picked it up and saw a webpage open. She couldn't read the headline but saw the picture. It was of her and Tony walking out of the compound. Her mouth opened to speak, but she paused.

"Look, I can explain!" Pietro looked up at her.

"Then explain, explain why you lied." Y/n dropped the iPad on the table and sat down. 

"He has no idea that I know where you are, I told him you ditched me after the battle, and he said that since I signed the accords,  I still work for the avengers. I only go once a week for an hour, and I come straight back. The UN panel doesn't want us to be sent anywhere right now, or anytime soon for that matter. So I'm mainly just cleaning up and spending time with Tony. I didn't mean to lie, really, but if you knew, then you might stop me from going." Pietro looked at her as she rambled. Tears were starting to spill out from her eyes, and she looked horrible, like the guilty weight of the lie was crushing her. He frowned. 

"I wouldn't have stopped you from going. I could never stop you from doing anything, you're stronger than me in every way." He placed his hand on hers. She looked up at him. 

"You're not mad?" Pietro sighed and rubbed his face. 

"No. Yes. No. Well, I don't blame you, and I'm not mad, but I just wish you had told me. Are you even learning to read?" Y/n nodded. 

"Yes! I am, I promise! I have an idea, why don't you come with me? My next lesson is on Wednesday, you can come with me!" Pietro smiled. 

"Perfect." 

Y/n had an idea, and while it was a bit out there, she really hoped it would go well.
