You cradled the small cardboard box in your arms as you tried to unlock the door without dropping it. As soon as the door was open you sighed in relief as the warmth of your home surrounded you, fighting against the bitter winds of the outside world.

"Y/N, is that you?" Wanda called out.

"No just a burglar with a key," you retorted.

You heard her fake laughter as she walked into the hall to meet you.

"You aren't funny," she stated before eyeing up the box in your arms, "what is that?"

"I'm hilarious," you grinned, leaning in to kiss her, doing your best not to move the box too much, "I brought us a couple of friends. They were left at work and I thought you'd like them, so I adopted them."

Working as a vet meant that when animals were abandoned and needed a once over, you'd get the chance, meaning you could adopt them right off the bat. You'd never done it before but you couldn't not adopt the poor things.

A soft meow could be heard from the open box. Wanda lightly pulled on one of the edges so she could look into it. She gasped, scooping up the two baby kittens.

"Y/N. Kittens?" She grinned holding them close.

"They were left at work a couple of weeks ago. We took care of them until we were certain they'd be fine to get a new home. And I know how much you wanted a cat. I didn't have the heart to separate them, so I brought them both home. If you don't want them I can take them to the shelter, anyone would love to have them."

She gave you a mock offended expression.

"Don't be stupid. Of course I want them. I've always wanted fur babies. We'll have to go out and buy them supplies tomorrow," she basically squealed.

You laughed softly putting the empty box on the floor. Wanda handed you one of the kittens, using her now free hand to pull you into a hug, pressing her lips to your cheek.

"I love you Y/N," she smiled.

"I love you too."

Wanda placed her kitten into the floor, before you put yours down too. You wrapped your arms around her as you both observed the two bundles of fluff discovering their new home.

"They are so adorable. I can't believe we have kittens. Do they have names? Are they okay? Why would anyone abandon them? They are so sweet, why would anyone just leave them?" She said softly, looking sad at the thought of their possible fate.

"They weren't in a great state. They are young and weak but they are fighters and they're out of the woods now. When they came in, we had to give them names to put on all of the forms, and I was given the opportunity to name them," you smiled innocently, knowing that the names you picked probably wouldn't be what Wanda would want her cat to be called.

She gave you a doubtful look, "what did you name them?"

"Sir Fluffy Pants and Twinkle Butt," you grinned.

She let out a sigh, as she kissed you once more. As she pulled away you gave you a crooked smile.

"I wouldn't expect anything less."
