You had hit it off with Wanda straight away. The two of you had become close friends and soon girlfriends, having a happy and supportive relationship that you wouldn't change for the world. She made you happy and as far as you were aware, you made her feel the same. That was why you became instantly concerned when she asked you to talk, a solemn expression on her face as she avoided making any eye contact with you. You couldn't think of anything wrong and that was more disconcerting than if you had an inkling as to what could lead to her looking so worried to talk to you about the matter.

With a long pause, Wanda begun to talk. She told you of her past, one that you had known was tumultuous, but little did you know how truthful that was. She started with her life in Sokovia, to her role in HYDRA, her powers, her brother's death, every word was filled with pain, but you hung onto everything she said, not interrupting, waiting for her to finish. Once she finished the timeline up to the point of meeting you, she circled back to her powers, to the abilities she possessed, the damage she could cause, and the immense vastness that could be covered just with a flick of a wrist.

"I knew you were amazing," you smiled softly, grabbing her hand. "But I didn't know you were literally magical."

"I was scared you would run away from me if you knew," she admitted.

You shook your head. "It's really cool. I can't believe you're able to do all the stuff you said, it's crazy. Can you show me?"

Her face paled slightly. "What would you like me to do?"

You pondered for a moment. She had told you of all of these amazing things she could do but you couldn't pick what you wanted to see, none of it truly feeling real, not that you didn't believe her.

"Um..." you sighed, looking around. "Can you move that book?"

You pointed to the book on the table between you. Wanda let out a gentle laugh. You cocked an eyebrow at her, not knowing what caused her to laugh.

"People usually want an extravagant demonstration of my powers. Are you sure you just want me to move a book?"

Your shoulders shrugged. "Any power is cool, but I don't really care because you're already the most amazing woman to me."

Wanda smiled at you, her cheeks reddening. She waved her hand, a red glow emitting from her fingers as the book begun to levitate and flip through pages before plopping back on the table. You were grinning ear to ear as you thought of how amazing Wanda truly was, powers or not.
