Peter and MJ were walking out of the school together.

"Is your Mum or Dad coming to the parent thing? "
MJ asked.

"Well my real Mum and Dad
are dead so my adoptive Mama is coming. Hopefully."

"You're adopted?"
MJ asked.

"Yeah, Mama found me on the streets and she adopted me."
Peter said.

"Cool. I'm still in the care system. My parents were killed far away."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I don't have anyone coming for it because the carers are busy with the littler ones."

"Oh. I'm sorry. I hope someone adopts you soon! My Mamas here so I need to go now. Bye MJ, see you tomorrow."
Peter ran to Wanda who gave him a hug and MJ spotted one of the carers.

"Hey Pete, how was school? Anything interesting?"

"Not really Mama. There's a parent day thing on tomorrow and we were asked to bring our parents in. Can you come in Mama?"

"I don't have any meetings or missions tomorrow so I'll come in baby."

"Yay!"

Ever since the Ross fiasco, Wanda got more time off so she could spend even more time together.

~~~

"And now we have, Miss Wanda Maximoff, Peter Maximoff's sister?"
The teacher asked.

"Actually Miss, I'm Peters mother."
Wanda said, standing up.

"Teenage pregnancy, such a shame."
Wanda heard several mothers mutter.

"Hello, Peter's class, I'm Wanda Maximoff, Peter's adoptive mother. Adoptive means that I'm not Peter's biological mother."
Wanda aimed that last bit towards the mother's who were muttering about it.

"I am an Avenger."

"Miss Maximoff, please do not lie to the class. There is no way that you are an Avenger. If you do not say what job you actually have I will have to ask you to leave."
The teacher said.

"I am the Scarlet Witch. One of the strongest Avengers. Being an Avenger isn't easy. Most days of the week are training days and those are tough. We have several missions a week and sometimes even one a day every day of the week. I am personally training with Loki, God of Mischief to help me get better control of my powers. Being a parent and an Avenger is tough but it is worth it because I get to help people and have a little family, like I had before my twin brother died. Any questions?"

"You're my favourite Avenger Miss Maximoff."
MJ said.

"Thank you."

"Michelle, that isn't a question dear. Does anyone have an actual question for Miss Maximoff?"
The teacher asked.

"I have a question."
One of the mother's said.

"Ok, go ahead and ask Miss Maximoff."

"Are you a suitable mother for a six year old? "

"I may not be like any other parent here but I am suitable of raising my son."
Wanda said out of gritted teeth.

"But what happens if Peter gets hurt because of your powers? How do we know that our children are safe in this school where one of the mother's is a monster?"

"I will never hurt my son ever!"
Wanda shouted in angry Russian.

"What did you just say to me? I should arrest you right here for being a foreigner!"

"My son got hurt before because of me and I will never let that happen ever again."

"I bet you hurt your son yourself. I bet you took him from his family! You slut!"

"What did you call me?"
Wanda asked very slowly.

"You are a slut and a home wrecker!"
Wandas magic started swirling around her hands.

"I am not a slut and I am not a home wrecker."
Her red magic was starting to swirl around the woman's neck. The teacher tried and failed to calm the women down.

Wanda started choking the mother with her magic.

"Miss Maximoff! Please control yourself!"
The teacher shouted.

A burst of red magic went over everyone and blew them back.

"Mama! Stop it!"
Peter shouted.

The red magic went away and Wanda was very tired. She hadn't used that much magic. Ever.

"Mama? Are you alright?"

"I'm ok now baby. We are going home now."
Wanda said in Russian.

"Ok Mama."
Peter started collecting his things.

"I will be taking Peter home now."

"What?!"
The mother screeched.

"I understand what I did was wrong and I am sorry. But you were being rude to me and accused me of doing things that I have never done."

Peter walked up to the front and the two left.

~~~

"Are you ok Mama?"
Peter asked when they were inside their apartment.

"I'm fine baby. Don't worry about me."

~~~

Later that night, Peter heard crying when he was meant to be sleeping. He crawled out of his bed and went into Wandas room.

"Mama?"

"Peter? What are you doing up?"
Wanda sniffed, turning her lamp on.

"I couldn't sleep. And I heard crying. Why are you crying Mama?"

"Well, that woman said some really hurtful stuff and I didn't want to cry in front of you."

"Can I sleep in your bed tonight Mama?"

"Yeah."
Peter climbed into the bed and snuggled into Wandas side underneath the covers.

"I love you Mama."

"I love you too baby."
Wanda kissed the top of Peter's head.

~~~

"Hey darling. You're that monsters son aren't you?"
The same mother asked Peter the next day after school.

"Please don't call my Mama a monster miss."

"Well she's a monster. Has she been hurting you?"

"No. My Mama loves me and I love her."

"Are you sure? Because all I need to do is phone the cops. How about you come home with me?"

"My Mama told me not to go away with strangers."

"Well I'm not a stranger."

"I don't know who you are so you're a stranger."

"Stop talking back to me. Now you are going to come with me and your mother will be arrested."
The woman held her hand out.

"Why is my Mama getting arrested?"

"Because she's a monster and she shouldn't be trusted looking after a child."
Wanda came over at that moment.

"Excuse me miss, please leave my son alone."

"No! You are a monster!"

"Stop calling my Mama a monster!"

"No!"

"Please leave my son alone. If you do not I will report you."

"Well I'm sorry that I care about a child's health!"
Just then a portal opened up beside Wanda.

"Come on Maximoff, let's go."
Loki said, placing a hand on Wandas shoulder.

"Fine."
Wanda growled.

She took Peter's hand and let Loki drag her through the portal.

"You need to control yourself Maximoff. You don't want to create a scene like you did yesterday."
Loki said when the portal opened in the living area of the compound.

"Don't you think I know that already."
Wanda spat out.

"Watch it Maximoff."
Loki warned the witch.

"Sorry. It's been a long day and I'm just tired."

"I get it. You need to control your magic and use it properly."

"I know."

"There isn't any point in you saying that if you don't know. Training. Now. Your son can watch in the viewing area."

"Ok. Come on Pete, you're gonna watch Mama train."

"Really?"

"Yep."

~~~

"Harness the power witch!"
Loki shouted, dodging flying equipment.

"I am!"

Loki magicked knifes out and threw them at Wanda who blocked them with her magic.

"Good! You're getting better!"

Wanda lifted a bench up and threw it at Loki and changed its shape to hold him in it.

"Well done."
Loki grunted out.

"Now get me out."

"Oh sorry."
Wanda apologised and unbent the bench.

Loki threw another knife and Wanda put up a magic barrier that sent the knife flying into the wall.

"You are improving. Well done. That's training over for today."
Loki said and magicked his way to the library.

Peter ran out of the viewing room and hugged Wanda.

"You looked so cool Mama! I wish I was as cool as you."

"You are cool Pete. You are the coolest person I know."

"Am I really Mama?"

"Yep. Now come on, I think Steve's cooking tonight and Bucky is baking his cookies for pudding."

"Are the cookies nice Mama?"

"Oh they're the best. Remember that time when I picked you up from school and there was a bag of cookies on the kitchen table that I brought home from work?"
Wanda asked, pressing the button for the lift.

"Yeah!"
They stepped into the lift.

"Well those cookies were made by Bucky."

"Were they really Mama?"

"Yep. And he's making cookies with marshmallows in them."
Wanda whispered the last part as if it was a massive secret.

"Yay!"
Peter whispered-shouted.

The lift door opened and they walked over to the sofa.

"Hey."
Steve said from the connecting kitchen.

"Hi. What are you making tonight Steve?"
Wanda asked.

"Spaghetti. Everyone loves it and I'm hoping that Clint doesn't start a food fight. Again."

"It's Clint."
Wanda said.

"True."
Steve went back to stirring the mince.

~~~

Everyone was sat at the table, even Vision even though he couldn't eat or taste food.

"Is everyone enjoying the spaghetti?"
Steve asked.

Everyone said yes and the meal continued in a silence for once. Before Clint threw a piece of spaghetti at Scott.

"Clint! Why? I thought I was your pranking buddy?"
Scott said, clearly upset at what Clint did.

"It was either you or Natasha and I don't want to die tonight."
Clint said.

Scott flung a spaghetti strand and it hit Natasha on her forehead.

Scott paused before running away.

"Is everyone done?"
Bucky asked.

Everyone said yes and Bucky and Steve collected the empty plates and put cling film over it.

Bucky have everyone a cookie but gave Peter two.

"Thank you Mr Bucky."
Peter said.

"You're welcome kid."
Bucky ruffled Peter's hair.

"Hey! Why does he get two and we get one?"
Clint asked.

"He's an actual child and you're a man child."
Bucky said as if he was talking to a baby and Clint pouted.

~~~

"Did you enjoy dinner tonight baby?"
Wanda asked after tucking Peter into his bed.

"Yeah I did Mama. Can we have dinner there again? Please?"
Peter asked.

"Of course. The team like having you around, it stops everyone from swearing a lot and Bucky seems to like you a lot."
Wanda said.

"Does he?"

"Yep. He told me before we left that if anybody hurt you, he will ask me or Natasha to tell him his trigger words that turn him into the Winter Soldier and he'd hunt that person down."

"That's so cool."

"It is. And soon, he'll be bugging your stuff."

"What does that mean?"

"He'll put little listening devices on your jackets, jumpers and school bags and keep an eye on you."

"That's a bit creepy."

"It is but it's his way of knowing that everyone is safe."
Wanda kissed the top of Peter's head.

"Night baby."

"Night Mama."
Wanda switched the light off and closed the door.

~~~

Bucky smiled when he heard Wanda and Peter's conversation.

He will protect that child with his life.

Hi! I'm literally just copying and pasting so yeah.
