Two years. For the first time in two years Y/N woke up alone. No one beside her. No one keeping the bed warm. It sent a slight chill into her bones. Missions had been scarce the last few years and even when he did have them, Pietro always made his way home before Y/N woke up the next morning. But no last night. Last night they slept in separate beds for the first time in two years and even though he tosses and turns and constantly wakes her up, this was the most sleepless night Y/N had experienced in the last two years.

She was drowning in the thoughts of waking up alone when there was a knock on the door. Before she could even answer Wanda barged in, arms full with dress bags and shoe boxes.

"Oh by all means, come in." Wanda closed the door behind her and began bustling around the room laying things out.

"Listen here little Miss Stark, it is your wedding day you can not sleep the day away." Wanda hung the dress bags on the back of the door as Y/N pulled the covers back and got out of bed.

"I wasn't sleeping. I haven't been asleep for hours." Wanda stopped what she was doing and turned to look to her friend.

"You are not having second thoughts are you? Because honestly I love you and all but if you leave my brother at the altar I might kill you."

"No, no second thoughts. I just have a hard time sleeping in the bed without him I guess."

"Oh well if that is all. You never have to worry about that again because after today, you're going to sleep next to him every night for the rest of your lives, more or less."

"Thanks Wanda. Alright I am going to shower, I won't be long. Calm down, you seem more excited than I am."

"I can not help it, my best friend is getting married today, to my brother. We are going to be sisters and I am just so excited I can hardly control myself." The two women laughed and Y/N headed into the bathroom to shower. When she got out she could hear music blaring in her room and when she walked in she saw Wanda setting breakfast on the coffee table for the two of them. They sat silently and ate, both in deep thought about the day.

"What if he leaves me at the alter?"

"He would never but if he does he is the world's biggest idiot."

"I'm just worried that he will back out like he did before."

"He was stupid before. He realized his mistake and fixed it. He will not make the same mistake twice."

"I hope you're right. Okay let's get ready before they start without us."

The two women took their time getting ready, doing their hair, makeup, getting dressed, and before they knew it, it was time for the show to begin. There was a light knock at the door just as Y/N was clasping her mother's necklace around her neck. Wanda walked over to open the door and in walked Tony, eyes red and tear stains on his cheeks. Wanda ushered him in and when he looked at his daughter a new wave of tears ran down his face.

"I am going to go check on my brother, make sure his feet are nice and toasty." With that Wanda left the room, leaving behind the two Starks.

"Oh my little Light. You aren't so little anymore are you?"

"I guess not. This is getting so real." Y/N sat on the couch and Tony followed suit.

"It is real. You look beautiful and you are about to marry the man you love. Oh god, it's all happening so fast. I remember your first day of preschool."

"You mean my last day of preschool."

"You know as well as I do that they were the same day."

"Would thing have been different if I went to school?"

"Yeah, you would probably be dumb." The two laughed and Y/N leaned her head on her father's shoulder.

"You look just like her and I can hardly stand it."

"You tell me all the time."

"I know, but especially today. A lot of my memories of her have faded, like a chair that sat out in the sun too long, it's still there but not as bright as it once was. All except for one. One image of her in my head that is as pristine as the day I took it. Our wedding day, her standing there in white, the longer I looked at her the more beautiful she got. You look like that today. The longer I look at you, the more beautiful you become." A new wave of tears came to Tony's eyes as he stood from the couch. "Come on Light, we should get going before I change my mind and keep you all for myself." Y/N smiled and took her father's hand, standing up and walking out of her room.

The walk down the aisle had been one for the record book. Once the doors opened and Pietro and Y/N laid eyes on each other, Y/N was practically dragging Tony to the end and prying his fingers from her arm as she stood next to the man who would soon be her husband. After that neither of them remembered much, they were lost in each other's eyes as the officiant spoke. Until it was time to read their vows.

"The couple have decided to write their own vows and will do so now. Pietro?" Pietro let go of Y/N's hands and pulled an index card from the pocket of his suit jacket, something that had been a fight to get him to wear but he looked so good in it.

"I was hoping you would go first because I am not very good with words but I guess there is no such luck now. I never really thought about my wedding day. I never thought I would have a wedding, I never thought I would be married, I thought I would never do many things. Marrying a Stark was at the top of the list of things I thought I would never do but look at this now, I am standing here with you, the daughter of a man I once thought was evil, loving you more than I thought would ever be possible to love another person and I could not be happier. I am glad I am getting to do all the things I thought I would never do and I am glad I am getting to do them with you."

"Y/N?"

"Okay, mine turn." Y/N turned to Wanda who handed her a card similar to Pietro's. "You have boggled my mind since the moment I met you. I thought from the second you sat up on that that table that what I felt for you was nothing more than a one sided physical attraction, I kept telling myself that until I was blue in the face but it was never true, it was always more than that. You're my best friend and I'm so honored that I get to marry my best friend."

"It is now time for the exchanging of the rings, who has the rings?" Wanda took a ring from her dress pocket and handed it to Y/N, everyone then turned to Thor who was patting himself in search of the ring, finally feeling it in his back pocket, he retrieved it with a smile and handed it to Pietro.

"Pietro, in placing this ring on Y/N's finger, repeat after me: Y/N, this ring I give you,"

"Y/N, this ring I give you,"

"My personal gift and my personal promise,"

"My personal gift and my personal promise,"

"of love and trust and pride that you are my wife."

"of love and trust and pride that you are my wife."

"We will wear these rings, and the world will know that I am yours and you are mine."

"We will wear these rings, and the world will know that I am yours and you are mine." With that Pietro slipped the ring onto Y/N's finger and smiled up at her. The officiant then turned to Y/N.

"Y/N, in placing this ring on Pietro's finger, repeat after me: Pietro, this ring I give you,"

"Pietro, this ring I give you,"

"My personal gift and my personal promise,"

"My personal gift and my personal promise,"

"of love and trust and pride that you are my husband."

"of love and trust and pride that you are my husband."

"We will wear these rings, and the world will know that I am yours and you are mine."

"We will wear these rings, and the world will know that I am yours and you are mine."

"Y/N and Pietro, you have expressed your love to one another through the commitment and promises you have just made. It is with these in mind that I pronounce you husband and wife. You have kissed a thousand times, maybe more. But today the feeling is new. No longer simply partners and best friends, have have become husband and wife and can now seal the agreement with a kiss. Today, your kiss is a promise. You may now kiss the bride." Pietro wasted no time pulling his wife into a kiss, pulling her as close as possible and holding the kiss until his lungs burned for oxygen. With that the two walked back up the aisle and off to their reception.

Dinner had been served, first dances had been had and the cake had been cut when Tony decided to make his speech. The clanging of metal on glass caught everyone's attention as Tony made his way to the front of the room.

"If I could have everyone's attention, I have a little speech I would like to make to my daughter and her new husband." The room became silent in anticipation for what Tony was about to say. "I love my daughter more than anyone could ever imagine. I have said so many times how she is the light of my life and I have never really had to share her with anyone else until now. Now she doesn't just light up my life but she lights up Pietro's life and after what my products did to his family, the least I can do is share my light with him. Pietro is a great man, he is a little slow on the uptake for such a quick guy but we love him none the less for it. He makes Y/N happy and that's all I have ever wanted for her, happiness. That's all her mother ever wanted for her and she would be so proud of you little Light, you don't even realize how proud she would be to see you now, and even if she wouldn't be, I am so proud to have you as my daughter. I wanted to end my little speech with something my dad waited until he was long dead to tell me but it's something I was been telling you ever since. Y/N, what is, and always will be, my greatest creation is you." Applause filled the room as Y/N walked up and hugged her father. "I love you so much my Light."

"I love you too Dad, no matter what."

"Alright enough blubbering let's get the music back on and have some fun!" Pietro walked up behind his wife and father-in-law, Tony pulled him in for a hug before speaking to him.

"I really am so glad that you finally got some sense and married her."

"I am too Mister Stark."

"Okay enough with the 'Mister Stark' you married my daughter, we are family now. If you want you can call me dad." The three of them laughed before throwing themselves back into the party.

The party lasted well into the night but soon it was time for the newlyweds to head off on to their honeymoon.

"Where are we going?"

"Where have you always wanted to go?"

"The bedroom?"

"Ha ha ha, seriously where?"

"You know the answer to that. Florence Italy, HYDRA cut me off before I got there that one summer."

"Then that is where we are going."

They arrived at the hotel in Florence, after checking in, the newlyweds made their way to their room. Y/N walked out on to the balcony, looking out over the railing to admire the view from their room.

"Did Dad pay for this?"

"Yes...I put up a good fight though! I told him I would pay, go somewhere I could afford, but he was having none of it. He said that he has spent your whole life giving you the galaxy and he did not want us to start our married life on a single star."

"Well that's Dad for you. Have you thought about his offer? Calling him Dad?"

"I am thinking about it but I do not know yet."

"So Dad payed. I'm surprised we have one room."

"Ah you see, that is where the fight came in. He said that we will have 2 rooms, one for me and one for you, with security outside both doors, I said no because while he does not want to think about what is going to happen in that bed over there, It is all I can think about."

"Well if it's all you can think about I guess we should see if it's as good as you've imagined it to be."

"What?"

"Wow, for being so quick you are so slow. Do I have to take my clothes off myself or are you going to help me." She turned and made her way back into the room before Pietro could even think about what she was saying. As he watched his wife walk towards the bed, lifting her shirt over her head, it finally hit him.

"Helping! I am helping!"

Y/N walked silently down the cold hallway, escorted by a tall man in an ill-fitting suit. She knew where she was. It looked just the same as the day she had left. The day she swore she would never be fooled into working for them again. Last time they used deception to get her help. This time they used corrosion, ultimatums. That seemed to work better this time around. No one had to hide what they were doing. She already knew everything. This time she was not a silly child under the impression she was working for a good cause. No. This time she knew the company she was keeping here.

As they reached the end of the hallway the man opened the door for her and then stepped to the side. Inside the room there was a large desk centered in front of a large bay window. Behind the desk was a chair turned in the direction of the window so you could not see the person seated in the chair. If you asked her, Y/N would have told you it was a bit clique on their part but that was none of her concern. She just wanted to know why she was back. They had taken everything they needed from her lab. So why was she here.

After a moment the chair began to turn. Occupying the chair was a young woman who looked to be not much older than Y/N. Her eyes were bright but they held a gaze that was more than intimidating. When she spoke her voice was soft and sweet, yet powerful. Everything about her seemed to be a contradiction to the conventional.

"Miss Stark, oh I'm sorry it's Mrs. Maximoff now isn't it. We didn't have the pleasure of meeting the last time you were here, but I believe you are in possession of something I want."
