Work Text:
"Shhh, don't wake up your mama!"
Natasha crinkled her nose at the noise around her, still partly muted from the nap she was just waking up from. She wasn't sure what time it was - just that she closed her eyes in the middle of an old movie and she Steve were watching, knowing damn well it was just background noise while they cuddled in silence. One thing she knew for sure was that she was alone on the couch now but a blanket was draped over her. Giggles erupted next to her ear and she fought against a smile tugging at her lips.
"I think mama's awake anyway," a voice answered, an obviously failed attempt at a whisper.
"I think she's still sleeping," Natasha joked, peeking an eye open and seeing James right in front of her. He was grinning ear to ear, but there were specks of mud on his face. "James? Did you not listen to Nana and played with the pigs again ?" Fully awake now, Natasha sat up and took James' face in her hands, leaning in to kiss his forehead. He giggled, throwing his arms around Natasha's neck for a hug. "Honey," Natasha pulled away fractionally, "you smell stinky."
James nervously laughed and tried to explain. "I might have fallen in the pen." Natasha narrowed her eyes, seeing right through her son's lie. She didn't have to be a spy to know that he's lying - and, judging by the sheepish smile on his face, James knew he can't fool his mother either.
"Whatever happened to watching him?" Natasha asked Alexei, her voice stern but teasing. No matter how many rules for the kids she tried to establish, it seems that they go out the window once the grandparents are in charge. She knows it should annoy her, yet she can't help but find it cute. Melina and Alexei are only lenient on the little things anyway, respecting major rules that Steve and Natasha has laid out for their kids.
Looking up from the newspaper he was reading at the kitchen counter, Alexei's eyes widened. "What do you want me to do! He said he fell! Right, James?" Alexei argued, throwing his hands up and winking - obviously wanting James to make his mom believe that he didn't deliberately play with his grandma's experiment - er, pet - pigs. James giggled and nodded, loving his little game with his grandfather. Natasha's convinced the two of them spending so much time together will drive her to an early grave.
"Yeah, I don't think even your dad could be convinced of that, bud. Go, take a shower please." He nodded and ran up the stairs to the bathroom. Yawning and stretching her arms, Natasha turned to Alexei. "What time did you guys get back? And where's everyone else?" She eyed the clock and saw that it was nearing 7pm. Melina and Alexei took James and Sarah to the Cleveland Zoo earlier in the day, insisting that the kids stop by there before they go back to New York the next day.
Melina and Alexei's farm in the suburbs of Cleveland became a frequent vacation spot for Steve, Natasha, and the kids. Ever since the Red Room was taken down, Melina and Alexei decided to go back to Ohio and settle down - if that's what they want to call it. The two have been working with Yelena in tracking down more Widows and other victims of the Red Room - as well as running covert ops in taking down child-trafficking rings - from their farm. Yelena is more of a nomad - being more active in the field by traveling all over the world, although she usually stops by the farm or Natasha and Steve's house in New York.
