Stay out of this one
It was just after the accords were set out and you were sat on your bed, your back leaning against the headboard. Natasha looked at the concentrated look on your face before she sat down next to you laying her head on your chest and wrapping her arms around your waist. You wrapped your arms around her lightly kissed the top of her head.
The two of stayed like that in complete silence for a few minutes, before Natasha broke the silence, “I know what you’re thinking” she said her voice, broke slightly as she spoke. You held her a little tighter, knowing what she meant. That you were thinking of joining Steve, you believed the accords didn’t allow for the freedom you believed in.
Natasha sat up to look at you “Stay out of this please…” her voice breaking off at the end. She couldn’t hurt you, the thought of it hurt her in ways that she could never express.
You looked into her eyes, seeing a mixture of pain, hope and love. “I’ll sign the accords” you said, you saw relief flood over her. She gently placed her forehead against yours, closing her eyes and releasing a breath she didn’t realise she had been holding.
“But I’m not staying out of this one” Nat’s eyes opened in confusion before you continued to speak, “Nat, there has only ever been one side that I’ve been on, yours.” You paused to take a breath, “I will be by your side through this” you said as you felt Natasha bury her head in the crook of your neck. You gently wrapped your arms around her, closing your eyes and relaxing as you felt her arms curling around you.
