I let you go (Complete)

II

As far as I know, I was doing what was right, he said softly to the judge in court, as a defended himself.
I don't care about me, but the avengers who were at my side were just supporting me, let them go please, he pleaded to judge with a soft yet stern look in his eyes.
I saw tony just rolling his eyes on this and I thought how he can be like this.
I was sitting beside Tony when the judge said do you have anything else to say.....
He shook his head while looking down and said, I have said everything and I'm always honest.
It's been 2 weeks since he got arrested by the government and the shield also didn't help him in this at all. He left Bucky at Wakanda and as just he arrived here. He was arrested for many reasons.

Judge smirked and mumbled honest my foot, which due to mic was heard by everyone in the courtroom. Wanda stood from her seat and yelled, you don't know him...
Isn't a mighty superhero became weak and emotional so quick, the judge responded to Wanda, looking at Steve whose head was down.
He didn't sleep for 2 weeks, didn't ate for 3 days, can't you see he is worried about us, nothing he did wrong except protecting his best friend.
I looked at her, her eyes showed she was worried about Steve, I should be her, while I was just sitting quietly with tony.

The friend who even doesn't recognize him yet and is a great threat to humanity. Disgusting, judge remarked, all the avengers except Steve can go back, he planned this all and he is guilty of this all, I hereby, declare the release of other avengers including Wanda, client, Sam and Scott, the next trial will be after 2 days again, you all may be dismissed, he said.

Steve stood up, they didn't cuff his hands though, because they know he wouldn't do anything like running away anyways, he looked weak both physically and emotionally when they were taking him to his cell, I and tony crossed him, he saw me, our eyes met for a second when he just lower his gaze, I saw pain, I saw he was tired, I know him well. When Tony was meeting with officers, I just sneaked to Steve's cell, there was nothing special there, I mean c'mon he is captain America after all, but no I don't know why they were doing this all to him, he just lied on the metal bed, closing his eyes, I can have only a glimpse but I feel that he felt cold, he was cold, and I can't help him nor comfort him. I just couldn't manage to watch this anymore, I went to tony again, and we went to avengers headquarter all of us, including Steve's team.

Wanda looked at me as I was the one who should be guilty. When I reached she grabbed my hand and give me something in my hand, and said you did wrong to him, he deserved better.

I opened my hand and it was the watch I gifted Steve last year, on his birthday, it was broken with drops of blood on it, a tear escaped through my eye. I stopped Wanda, she didn't look me back but said, he said me to return it back to you, he couldn't take care of this.

My heart skipped a beat, I was the one who was wrong, still, he said this.

After 2 days, it was the day when the judge was going to give his orders related to Steve, I don't know why I told tony I want to meet him, he said what? No, you can't, he said, please, I said. Didn't you both were over, or do you think you picked the wrong side now, tony shut up. He smirked and said go but come back quickly.

When I reached the cell, I showed the officer my shield I'd and they let me in, he was sleeping, he was always so peaceful, even though he was weak, tired, cold sweat, across his hands and face, not the usual neat Steve, but still he was peaceful, my heart was saying go hug him hard he needs it, but I just got closer, I just touched his hairs, and he knew it was me, he mumbled in his sleep, Natasha! and I got shocked for a second, I thought he will wake up, I turned around to go, but he held my wrist, stay for little longer please he said. I can feel his hands were so cold, and I knew he is still sleeping because his grip was weak on my hand, I turned back when I saw a tear escaped through his eyes.
I let my hand free from his grip, I'm so sorry Steve, and I left I didn't believe this is all happening because of me, if I just supported him, trusted him, tell him how much I loved him, and just rescued him when he got back from Wakanda.

After an hour trial, began, he was there in his deep thoughts at the defended side, I can see him falling apart, not even blinking his eyes, I don't know why government or shield or most of all tony is doing this to him, he was called he stood in the chamber, the judge interrogated him more, he just answers everything clearly, and we all know he was speaking the truth, this is not enough Rogers! Judge declared.
He smiled faintly, I don't know why and suddenly do you all hate me so much, I didn't do anything wrong, if some people died because of me, I owe them but I have saved thousands one of them too. I don't know the reason behind this sudden hatred, he glanced at me and others sitting in the courtroom, I have left with nothing, for whom I did this all doesn't recognize me, I lost my family, friends, love, I have nothing to lose. But I'm not going to admit that I did something wrong, I didn't, I will accept anything your honor But I can't let my head down in front of a mere lie or false statements about me, my head was fixed on the time When he said love I just fixed my eyes on him. What does that mean? Peggy left him long ago. Why? I didn't understand but he was dying inside that's why he doesn't care what decision the judge will make.

After a while, for now, rogers, I don't have a personal grudge with you but you have to pay for what your friend has done, even you are not directly involved but you save him you save a monster, 3 years sentence to jail, the case dismissed now. You all can go.

3 years wtf, it's too long, how can they do that to him, he sacrificed himself for every one of us, Wanda said. I can't believe this shit, he went to Steve, when he was going to the cell, we all were in it with you, you shouldn't let us go and bear this all alone, Steve smiled and took his hand the world needs you all, his eyes were teary, you are having a fever, Steve please don't get sick, don't get dizzy by bright lights and don't catch a cold. Take Care of Yourself, he nodded at Wanda's advice and said you too, Sam was standing there to hug him and tears escaped his eyes too, keep an eye on Wakanda, Steve said to Sam, he glanced at me as I was standing far before he went in, my voice just shatters and I called him Steve! He looked back, I run towards him and hugged him, this was so sudden to Steve too, he got shocked for once but then held me in his embrace, I'm gonna take you out, I didn't understand you but I can't see this all happening to you, he whispered in my ear its OK, take care he said while leaving her and everyone behind him, she wasn't letting his hand go, she can't her heart was so weak about him, its ok Natasha, let me go.....
