Natasha Romanoff one shots

You're hurt after a mission

I'm sorry this is really short 

You awoke to the sound of beeping, your head was pounding and you had no memory of what had happened. After blinking a few times, you became aware of your surroundings. You were in a hospital bed. Snoring softly next to you was Natasha, in an armchair, and Steve was leaning against the doorway.

She heard the faint rustles of you trying to sit up and shot up with a start.

'Hey,' she cooed, 'You feeling alright?'

'I'll go..' Steve subtly whispered to Natasha and she gave him a nod of acknowledgement. 

'What happened?' you mumbled.

'You got hurt on a mission, you've been out for hours.'

Everything went slightly dizzy as you went to rest back into the hospital bed. She took in your state and tilted her head at you, as though she was asking for confirmation that you felt okay. You nodded slowly so not to affect your headache and you brought up the sheets. She gently got into the bed with you and brought your head onto her chest.

Her hand rested on your cheek and she was carefully brushing over a scar left over from the mission.

'How bad was it?' you asked after a few minutes of silence.

'It was horrible. You know what Hydra is capable of, we thought they'd killed you,' she trailed off, reliving the moment.

Natasha didn't care that you had failed the mission, you could've died. She dreaded life without you, and she felt that it was her fault you got hurt. Although she had been reassured many times by others, she still felt slightly guilty. She had left your side for one minute and you'd gotten badly hurt. 

Whilst she was lost in her thoughts, she didn't notice you falling asleep. She gazed at you for a while, and then moved over slightly to kiss your forehead, before drifting off herself.
