Toxic - A Natasha Romanoff x Female Reader Story

Chapter 20

Y/N's POV:

I walk with Tony keeping to myself not saying anything and I watch him as we walk to an empty office and I walk inside with him closing the door behind me.

"Have I done something wrong?"

"Please sit down, Y/N."

I nod confused but I sit down playing with my hands and he starts loading something up on a screen and I move my eyes to it and my face drops tearing up. How the hell did he get these videos? I want to tear my eyes away from the screen but I can't and I grip the table getting more and more upset. These are the videos from my time at Hydra, the experiments, the missions I went on. It even includes footage from a few weeks ago when I went to save Nat.

"Turn it off Stark."

Surprisingly he listens to me and turns it off and he sits down in front of me. I can feel the tears streaming down my face but I don't want to look at him.

"I want to start with saying, I'm sorry."

I sniffle and the sound of an apology from him grabs my attention and I look up at him wiping my eyes.

"What?"

"I'm sorry Y/N. At first, I thought I was doing the right thing not trusting you, not giving you a chance. Then I saw that you put your life on the line for Red the first time. You argued with me to save her life a second time. I was just being arrogant and stubborn and I want to say I'm sorry. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have been able to take down 10 Hydra bases already."

I look at him not saying anything and I pick at my fingernails and I shrug slightly.

"It's okay. I deserved it."

I hear him sigh and he taps his fingers on the table and then stands up pacing around.

"I've seen how she looks at you Y/N. She's infatuated with you."

I smile gently to myself immediately thinking of Nat and I look at Tony.

"I accept your apology Stark. I'm sorry for the issues and pain I've caused also." 

He smiles at me and sticks his hand out at me. 

"Truce Y/L/N?"

I stand up smiling back gladly taking his hand shaking it.

"Truce. Now if you don't mind, I'd like to get back to Nat and Wanda. I don't want them to be worried."

He nods smiling at me.

"Of course, have fun with your girlfriend and your kid."

I smile to myself as I walk towards the door. That sounded nice. I stop just before I leave turning back to Tony.

"Tony?"

He looks over at me confused.

"Yeah?"

I smile gratefully at him.

"Thank you for letting me stay and giving me a chance. I won't let you down."

He nods smiling and I walk out and back towards the kitchen. I walk in smiling gently at them both and Nat immediately leaves the table coming over to me to hold my face.

"You've been crying. What did he do? Are you okay?"

I gently hold her hands nodding.

"It was nothing, we're okay. It's happy tears."

I sense Wanda trying to tap into my mind and I give her a warning look making her give me a guilty smile. I can't tell Nat about the videos he showed me, she'd feel even more guilty than she does already and I don't want that for her. I look back into Nat's emerald eyes watching as she tries to get a read on me but then slowly nods.
