BANG.
All i saw was darkness.Blackness.I thought i was dead.
But nothing happened.
I didn't feel anything, tears still fell down from my eyes, but when i opened them the guy was shot dead on the floor.I adjusted my eyes, looking up and it was my team, my family. My face lit up with relief as they ran over to me and untied me as Clint wiped the tears off my cheeks and blood on my mouth.
"Nat, you're going to be okay", he said, Clint was going to break down any minute.
"I-i'm sorry", I choked leaning my head on his shoulder.
"It's not your fault",he said, rubbing my back.
"It is", I replied brokenly.
I was so weak and pathetic.
"Can you walk?",Steve said, holding out his hand.
I nodded my head but my legs were limp and I stumbled onto him protecting my stomach at all times.
"Sorry".I sighed.
"Stop apologizing",Clint replied.
I nodded my head as a tear fell down my cheek.
.....
Quickly we made our way out of this building and back to the quin jet.
As soon as we got in Clint sat me down and started assessing my injuries, trying to disinfect them as best as he could, but I reckon they will heal in a few days.
After he sorted me out I limped over to the bed as I was so exhausted, I fell asleep straight away.
I shuddered awake and all I felt was pain.
"Hey it's okay, we're home",Clint said reassuringly.
"No",I said putting my hands over my face.
"What's wrong?",Clint asked.
"I told Bruce I wasn't going to go on this mission, and I did, I lied to him". I sighed sorrowfully.
"I'm sure he'll understand",He replied.
"He shouldn't have to", I said quickly getting up.
Clint quickly stood up to try and help me but I didn't need his help.
Painfully i limped off the quin jet with my head down.I don't even know if Bruce knows i actually left.
Slowly Steve opened the door and let me in first.
Bruce was there with a sad look on his face as he saw how beaten up I was.
"I'll leave you to talk",Steve said softly as everyone else walked out following him.
"Nat, why did you go?"Bruce said sorrowfully.
"I-I'm sorry",I said, not making eye contact with him.
"...It's okay,'' he replied, bringing me into a hug.
"I should've listened to you",I said, burying my head in his shoulder.
"..You're safe, that's all that matters".
"I was going to die",I whispered, now starting to cry on his shoulder.
"You didn't",He replied, rubbing my back.
"I'm sorry",I repeated.
"It's not your fault, I understand you were bored but-"
"But,what?"I replied.
"It doesn't matter, all I care about is that you and the baby are safe",He said, hugging me tighter.
I nodded my head in return.
