Broken Boilers and Sleepy Hugs
The boiler was located above your room in the avengers tower and it was about to blow. So until Tony fixed it you weren’t able to sleep in your room. It was just typical you thought as you pulled the blanket over you with your good arm. This had to happen on the same week you were injured. You sighed as you drifted off into sleep.
Natasha walked through the elevator doors, just back from a mission, but stopped when she saw a figure lying on the sofa. She walked over to see who it was, she was surprised to see you. She smiled to her self when she saw how content you looked as you slept. You almost looked as beautiful asleep as you looked when you were smiling, she thought back to your first date. You went for coffee, nothing fancy but Nat was taken back by how beautiful you looked. She blushed slightly as she thought about your first kiss.
The two of you had been dating for a month now but you hadn’t spent the night together yet. Neither of you sure if the other wanted to, both of you scared that you might push the other.
“Jarvis what is (y/n) doing down here?” she whispered, careful not to wake you. “Boiler issues above her room Miss” Jarvis replied, mimicking Natasha’s hushed voice. She sighed, of course, it was just your luck to have that at the same time you were injured. She brushed a piece of your hair out of your face, then noticing how cold you were. She gently took you hand, you were absolutely frozen. She silently cursed Steve for insisting that the air conditioning was constantly on. She wasn’t just going to let you freeze on the sofa, especially not in your condition she thought, as she looked at the cuts on your face that were slowly starting to heal.
She lent down and picked you up. She started to walk down the corridor to her room, that was when you started to stir. “Tasha?” you said, as your eyes opened to see your girlfriend.
“Hey” she said glancing down at you, feeling slightly annoyed that you woke up, “You were absolutely frozen down there so if you don’t mid your going to have to spend the night with me” she said her tone gentle. You smiled “I don’t mind at all” you said as you brushed a lock of hair that fell over her eyes out of the way. You rested your head on her arm and easily fell back to sleep.
Nat smiled to herself as she crossed the threshold of her room, she finally got to sleep with you in her arms. She pulled back the covers and laid you down in her bed before tucking you in. She placed a light kiss on your temple, before she disappeared into the bathroom to get ready for bed.
She slipped into bed beside you and wrapped her arms around you, smiling when she discovered that you were a good bit warmer than you were earlier. She was surprised when she felt your good arm wrap around her waist, but was happy to be held in your embrace. She rested her chin on the crown of your head and slowly drifted off to sleep, a content smile on her lips.
