Could you do an angst Agatha x reader one shot with happy ending? Maybe reader feels Agatha is losing interested in her (reader) in Westview
Canât think of any, but if you read this and have a thought to one I could put, let me know and it will be added.
Hi guys. Went on a long train ride and decided to write this. Agathaâs show inspired me. The joy she gives me is unmatched. I want to ask that we all use are imagination and pretend WestView was a thing longer than the few weeks it was, as to give an explanation and a sense of realism to Readers and Agathaâs whole romance and love story. I also ask that we ignore the additional emotional scarring that wouldâve given the town. Thanks a bunch! NowâŠ
Agatha had a plan. A plan that hadnât, and was never supposed to include you. It had everything to do with Wanda, and Wanda, it turns out, had everything to do with you.
That part of it hadnât mattered. Yeah, Agatha had originally only been prepared to deal with one Avenger, and you coming in would prove to make things more complicated, but she was sure she could handle it.
And she had, of course. UntilâŠuntil she developed a relationship with you and emotions towards you that went beyond the limits of what she had planned. Not just plannned for this little mission of hers, but planned for her lifeâafter how her last relationship ended.
She loves you. Wandaâs Maximoffâs best friend. The one thatâs been keeping Wanda from going even more off into the dark end. The one thatâs been interfering with Agathaâs plans by trying to pull Wanda out of the Hex before Agatha has delved deeper into the amount of magic needed to create it.
You. Infuriatingâ you. Since the moment she met you it was like you had seen through all of Agathaâs facades. Not just the Agnes one.
She made a pointâa stupid emotional driven pointâto be honest with you, and only you, from the beginning. The thing is⊠though she had even told you about her interest in Wanda, and the hex, she had left out her plans of draining Wanda of her powers and killing her.
Which is probably an important thing to mention
âŠWhich is definitely an important thing to mention. As much as Agatha hates to admit itâ and she absolutely hates to admit itâ itâs been eating away at her.
More than she doesnât want to lose you, she doesnât want to hurt you. Well, thatâs not completely trueâŠsheâd rather not lose youâŠbut itâs a close competition.
This relationship with you was supposed to be fake, but her heart doesnât seem capable of understanding that. Sheâs been pulling away from you, acting distant, avoidant, and just as itâs been hard on youâitâs been hard on her.
She canât imagine a world without you in it, but she needs this powerâŠneeds to see if itâs capable ofâahem, anywaysâ she just needs it. Sheâs sure you need Wanda similarly. That you canât imagine a world without her. Thatâs what the gossip magazines, twitter posts, or even tumblr fanfictions want to guilt Agatha into believing at least.
Sheâs bitter, hates with a burning passion how much the world likes to advertise you and Wanda as this amazing duo pair, hates even more how unknowing fans like to speculate on some sort of secret affair youâre helping Wanda commit, but sheâs willing to admit to some truth in it;
Agathaâs supposed to be very fake relationship, used at first to only get close to Wandaâto learn and kill herâhas turned into a real one, and the very person sheâs in love with is Wanda Maximoffâs platonic soulmate.
The guilt,and thus; avoidance and emotional distance doesnât take long to be noticed by you. It all comes to a head rather viciously in a way Agatha had expected.
Which is to say; all the avoidance has led to a rather ceremonious break upâŠ.she hadnât had the guts to do it, so sheâs sort of forced you into it. Thatâs what you believe, and it is the truth. Not in the way she guesses you expect though.
Agatha doesnât want to do this. She really struggles doing things she doesnât want to do.
She has to do this though. Itâs what sheâs convinced herself of.
âIf thatâs what you want, okay. Now If thatâs really all you had to sayâŠâ Agatha hints, turning to make her tea so you canât see the way her eyes water and betray her, âwell have a safe trip home, and donât forget your things dear.â
âI am not going to beg you to want me.â
Agathaâs jaw tenses. Her heart feeling heavier than anything sheâs ever carried. She wants to scream, to break all of the windows in the room. Wants to say, desperately; I have never not wanted you. I have never wanted to be worthy of anything more.
Youâre good. Good in way Agathaâs never been capable of. Youâre nothing she expected, but everything sheâs wanted, and it hurts more, somehow, like this.
Because she canât give you everything you want, and as that fact kills you, it kills her too.
Agatha glances over her shoulder and looks at you. Your eyes are brimming with tears, youâre shaking with emotion. With the urge to fight. There is a large part of you, Agatha guesses, that knows Agatha doesnât want this. Conscious or not. She turns away again.
âI know thatâs what you want, for me to beg, but I wonât, not anymore. I canât,â you whisper.
âThen donât,â she growls, and then winces because even as sheâs turned away she can picture the way you wince. The way you hurt.
All Agatha wants to do is protect you, but itâs like no matter what she does youâll end up hurt. Sheâs been pulling away slowly so that when she ends up betraying you to kill Wanda, hopefully itâll hurt less. All it seems to be doing though is prolonging the pain for the both of you. Itâs clear to the both of you the war thatâs happening in each of you. The want to fight for this. Itâs what makes this worse.
âDonâtâ, you repeat with a scoff. Agatha hears it right next to her ear and startles, turning around sharply.
Youâre standing right behind her, looking down at her with fiery eyes. Agatha moves to use her magic, but you grab her wrist to stop the thought. It makes her heart skip a beat. Makes her smirk.
She loves you. Loves you always, and wants you just as much when you look at her like you are now. You must sense it because you immediately let go of her wrist, with a look of confusion.
âDo you want me or not?â You ask harshly. And despite herself Agatha canât help the small flicker of annoyance that crosses her face. Annoyance directed at herself.
She masks it a second later with a smirk, gripping your chin. âOf course I do,â Agatha purrs, her voice dripping with seduction. You tense. Eyeing her with complete betrayal.
When Agatha had imagined the moment in which she betrayed you (and she had imagined it a lot), it hadnât gone like this. It had gone with her standing over the Scarlet Witch, your best friend, and you frozen a couple feet away.
It wasnât supposed to be like this, but itâs better this way. For you to realize who she is now, rather than later. She needs Wandaâs abilities, and sheâll do anything to get it. She thinks it to herself, and itâs almost like a reminder. âSheâll do anything to get it.â
You hold her wrist so gently though, even as your eyes blaze with all type of hurt, and Agatha feels deeply who sheâs hurting. Sheâs hurting you. Her love. Her heart. âMy heart,â Agatha says gently, and to you she imagines itâs a stab in the heart from the way you wince. Agathaâs face drops further. âI want you,â she admits, despite herself, finding herself not capable of hurting you like this.
Agatha kisses you suddenly on the corner of the mouth. Gently. Perhaps she shouldnât have let her mask drop, because now it seems impossible to put back on. It feels real the moment she stops playing pretendâŠwhat a surprise. Still, she herself feels vulnerable. Like a puppy just waiting to get kicked. As she feels both her and your despair she feels a wave of self loathing too.
âDown the road Wandaâs going down now she will hurt you. Down the road Iâm doing down, I will too.â Agatha whispers, tucking your hair behind your ear. âWhen I told you I was going to take her power, I meant I was going to kill her, baby.â
Agatha doesnât expect the laugh you release at that, but more than that she doesnât expect the simple way you leave. Her hand hands in the air where you once were, as if she had dreamed the memory of you.
It wasnât supposed to go like this.
It wasnât supposed to go like this. Couldnât have gone any worse. Every expectation Agatha hasâevery time she thinks she can predict what will happen you manage to change everything.
That blast was for Wanda, but you had jumped in front of it like it was your plan from the start. It stops both her and Wanda instantly. The blast would have sent you flying into the house, but Agatha had reacted quickly enough with her magic to prevent the collision. Still, as soon she drops the magic holding you, and begins running towards you, you fall.
Agatha sees it a slow motion but she knows it happens much faster than that, because sheâs running with everything in her and still doesnât make it before your head hits the ground. âMy heart, my heart, my heart,â Agatha begs with a trembling voice. Her hands are shaking but she moves your head onto her lap and presses her hands into your side to try and stop the bleeding.
Why did it have to be this spell that hit you. Why did it have to be any? Itâs been hundreds of years since her heart has hurt like this. Her mind whirls for a spell, for an anything. All she can do is slow the bleeding, and she does, but you still look up at her with fading eyes, and it kills Agatha.
âShh, lovely. Itâs going to be okay,â Agatha whispers to you, kissing your head. She doesnât even notice Wandaâs hand on her shoulder, or her coming up behind her at all.
âIâm transporting us to a Hospital,â Wanda says, looking uncertain and scared. Agatha pays no mind, just takes Wandaâs hand and guides her through the spell with her magic.
âAgatha,â you force out, Agatha returns your gaze, too distracted by the spell to stop you again. âWas powerâŠwas it that much more important?â
Suddenly youâre all in the hospital, your eyes are falling shut, and Wanda is shouting for a doctor. âNo,â Agatha answers. brushing your hair back. Her chest aches deeply at the streak of blood her hand leaves. She wants to say more, wants to curse at you a bit, just to let it out, but a bunch of medics push Agatha to the side and start touching you.
Itâs been a long time since Agatha felt this helpless. She wants to protect you, wants to insert herself into the commotion as the doctors pull you away and command that she gets to stay with you, but sheâs scared to take even a split second away from their saving.
Sheâs paralyzed, watching as they roll you away out of her sight. Wanda, of all people, rests a hand on her shoulder, snapping her out it. âSheâll be okay,â Wanda assures, even as she sounds uncertain.
Agatha canât bear it any longer. The uncertainty, and the assurance coming from the person she envies the most. She turns on her suddenly, eyes blazing with magic, and this is no longer about stealing Wandaâs magic. This is about Agatha, wanting to grab Wanda by the neck and shout that this is all her fault.
Except it isnât. Itâs her own fault. It was her magic that hit you. Hers that caused you so much pain. Agatha feels the blame so deeply she almost refuses to hold it. For your sake, for your words; was it that much more important? She decides to.
She sags into herself just as suddenly as she had turned towards Wanda, one hand waves her off, and the other presses against the burning in her eyes. âLeave.â Agatha says, her voice hoarse and emotional. And Wanda doesnât.
She just tilts her head and looks at Agatha like a sad, lost animal. Wanda has no where to return to, not after the scandal she pulled, and the one person who would have probably accepted her (the one person that accepted Agatha herself) is now in a hospital bed.
Theyâre sitting side by side. Agatha threatens to kill the front desk lady 3 times, but never once does she threaten to kill Wanda. Agatha doesnât mind her. She understands the feeling inside her more than Wanda will ever know. In another life, she would have been her teacher.
If you survive, perhaps in this life too. If she canât take Wandaâs power, maybe sheâs able to watch and learn from it as much as she can.
Agatha canât believe sheâs giving upâŠshe has planned and studied for this for so longâŠbut sheâs always been spontaneous, always been ready to plan and shift, always been good at changing track. Sheâll get what she wants. Sheâll get it another way.
Itâs a promise she makes herself, sitting in the waiting room of the hospital waiting to find out if the person she loves is still breathing. Itâs a promise she makes herself sitting by the person sheâs planned to kill since she first pieced together her ability. A promise she makes herself because it means she gets to have you.
âAgnes?â A nurse calls.
Wanda looks at her, her face reading seriously?. Agatha pays no mind to it, she just sits up violently, and holds tightly onto Wandaâs arm.
When Agatha walks into the room itâs like her heart starts back up again and she can breathe. Youâre hurt, but youâre okay. Agatha is in shambles, and she wonât be able to sleep without reliving you bleeding out on the floorâbut youâre okay.
She breathes out. Once, twice, then sheâs crying; hit with the force of her emotion.
Everything hurts, but when the doctor lets Agatha in with Wanda followingâ for a moment it doesnât. For a moment itâs Agatha, the woman you love, standing next to your best friend and not killing her.
Then Agatha is crying, and all you feel is concern. âAg, lovely, are you hurt?â You ask, still full of drugs and delirious enough to be confused about it all.
Agatha who gave up on you. Agatha who you werenât good enough for. Agatha who you love, who you could never meet the needs of. Agatha who put you in a hospital bed. Agatha who you love so fully despite the heartbreak sheâs caused you.
It all comes back to you suddenly, but Agatha is cryingâ and none of any of it seems very significant compared to that. Wanda looks between the two of you, and says to you, softly, in a language only the two of you understand; âself-sabotage seems to be a language both me and this one speaks. You are drawn to damaged people, huh?â
You look down and Wanda laughs, but she looks like she also wants to cry. She opens her mouth to say something else, but you already know what sheâs going to say so you cut her off. âIt wasnât your fault, Wanda, I am glad it was me and not you.â
Wanda looks like she wants to protest that, but instead she nods her head with tears in her eyes and whispers, after glancing at Agatha, âIâll give you two privacy. Good luck.â
Agatha seems lost in her thoughtsâŠwell lost in something. Her eyes are distant, tears still running down her face. âAgatha.â Itâs only a whisper but Agathaâs eyes snap towards you. She looksâŠterrified? She quickly tries to wipe her tears but more just fall.
âYou idiot,â Agatha seethes, looking overwhelmed. She breathes heavily and you just let her, even as you bristle and begin to feel your defenses rise.
Itâs probably best not to add wood to her fire, you think to yourself.
Agatha stalks towards you, angry, kisses your forehead and then sags into the chair next to your hospital bed. âYou idiot,â she repeats shakily, her voice and face lined with a sort of devastation you donât know how to comfort in her. âWhat do you think wouldâve became of me if I killed youâAgatha presses. âHuh? Did you think before youââ
âUsually when people accidentally almost kill someone, they apologize instead of blaming the person.â You arenât mad at Agatha, not for hitting you at least, but hearing her act as if you had been the one to fuck up was aggravating.
She fucked up. Not you. âYou really think I was going to let you kill my best friend?â You ask, angry now too. âYou really think I wouldâve let you let me go for some stupid reason like that? I donât know why power is so important to you, but I support you. I wouldâve supported you on finding another way, because I support you when you arenât hurting innocent people to achieve your self motivated ends. I have given up a lot for you, Agatha, but I will not give up that.â
You release a coughing fit after that. You have more to say but your body wonât allow you to. You have an endless amount of words for Agatha. Agatha who you love. Agatha who you donât quite know how to be enough for.
Agatha who grits her teeth and looks down. âI will not give up power for you. It is more than that I want, which is something Iâm not able to explain to you right now, but I hope you understand,â Agatha pauses. Her eyes meeting yours. âIâm going to find another way. I wonât hurt Wanda. I wonât hurt anyone that will make youâor most humans flaky moral codeâ ache. By that, I mean anyone âinnocentââ she uses hand quotes then, and rolls her eyes.
The mild bitterness is clearly something Agatha canât help. The way she changes tract though was something you never thought she would do for you, and youâre not quite able to understand it.
âWhy?â You ask softly. Itâs what you want, of course it is, itâs even what you asked, but Agatha doesnât do anything for other people, nothing if it doesnât come with her own sort of personal gain.
As if reading your mind Agatha straightens awkwardly in her chair and says simply; âI love you. I donât want to hurt or lose you.â
âButâŠbut power is important to you.â
âSo are you,â Agatha says, tilting her head.
You donât know why youâre almost trying to convince her itâs more important, but perhaps itâs because you struggle to accept or fathom your own importance in her life. It feels like a fever dream, one youâre trying to pinch yourself to get out of.
If you believe it and then are disappointed, it hurts more than if you had never believed it at all.
âIâm sorry,â Agatha says, pulling you out of your thoughts. Not by her voice, but by the tears forming in her eyes. âIâm sorry I hurt you. Iâm sorry I was so scared of my own affections for you I denied myself them, and in turn made you feel denied. I love you.â She repeats. âI love you, and youâre important to me, and thereâs a billion things Iâd sacrifice for you, and I never want to lose you, andââ
âI love you too,â you rush out, shocked by Agathaâs desperation and wanting to reassure her. Agatha breathes out heavily, a breath she mustâve been holding, and shakes her head at herself, wiping at her eyes.
This time, at the quickness of how she composes herself you donât think of it as her not really caring, but instead as a defense mechanism sheâs mastered. A part of your heart hurts for her.
âThank you, Agatha. For trusting me with your heart.â
Agatha rolls her eyes at that, but sheâs smiling and itâs all apart of her recovery. You let her have it. âMy heart,â she sighs, leaning over to give you a lingering kiss. When she pulls away the both of you stare at each other. You, trying to commit this moment to memory. Agatha staring like sheâs trying to be sure this is real.
âThe witch is still mine,â Agatha whispers, completely breaking the moment. âIf she thinks sheâs off the hook for the amount of emotional instability she has, she has another thing coming. Unstable emotions and magic are never a good combo.â
You snort. Mumbling under your breath, âfunnyâŠjust learned that lesson.â Agatha glares at you, just as Wanda walks in.
âIf weâre all good now I think we should go,â Wanda rushes.
âWhat did you do?â Both you and Agatha question.
Wanda smiles nervously, surrounding the room in an aura of red magic.. someone walks over to the barrier of it and begins banging. Youâre beginning to wonder if itâs a talent of witches to ruin your peace. Especially when about 4 more armed people start trying to shove themselves into the force field. And oh, there are the guns.
Agatha sighs very deeply, and you release a very dramatic groan. Wanda tilts her head sheepishly. âI should go. I released westview but looks like my consequences are still knocking at the door,â she says quietly.
Agatha agrees. âYes, you should.â She pauses, most likely waiting and taking pleasure in the pointed look you give her. âI probably should go too though, thereâs no telling how people want to paint a witch. Most likely another villainâŠmaybe a hero after the scene we pulled. Still, I shouldnât be in the public until I find out.â
âWeâll see you soon then, Y/N.â
You give them a look, a look that both Wanda and Agatha know to mean; are you absolutely batshit crazy? You donât need to say it, but you do; âyou two are not going anywhere without me.â
Agatha smirks, and Wanda smiles, then a wave of Wandaâs hand and the three of you are somewhere else much more safe. At least until the media and Avengers manages to get the media to unfairly paint what happened in westview as something much more innocent.
This new journey with the three of you should beâŠfun until then. At least you have your favorite people, and they have you.
