I got up and dragged him out of the bed, I threw him a shirt.  "Lets go I'm tired of waiting either come with me or I'll jump in my iron man suit and fly there myself"

Steve followed me out to the living room and looked at me, "Are you sure you want to go now?" Steve asked 

"Yes it will take us a while to get there anyway" I said grabbing a notebook and pen quickly writing 

Dear Team
Steve and I left, don't worry I didn't run away again.  I can't wait any longer, we are going to get our daughter and finally bring her home.  Don't worry too much about us, we'll be fine.  When I come back I'll have a little one to introduce and I can finally be whole again, I'll see you guys in a few days 

And with that letter, I grabbed Steve's hand and brought him to a quinn jet.  I sat in the pilot seat, and Steve in the co-pilot seat.  "So where to?" he asked 

"You'll see," I said, taking off slowly.  Turning the propellers up and making them spin faster and faster as we rose higher into the air, before we were thousands of feet off the ground.  "See Steve that's how you fly one of my jets" I said towards him 

"Whatever" he said rolling his eyes 

It was silent for a little bit before I finally spoke, "Steve, remember Yelena from a couple years ago?" I asked.  I put the plane on auto-pilot and turned towards him 

"Yeah why?" he asked weary "I won't like where this is going will I?" he asked 

"I don't know it will depend on your mood when I tell you" I said turning my whole body sideways 

"Please just tell me?" he pleaded with me 

"When we get to my house Yelena is watching Anya and I need you to trust and listen to me" I looked into his widening eyes.  It was silent for a few minutes, "Steve please say something" I begged, growing nervous 

"You left our daughter with Yelena?" he asked 

"Yeah she was the only one I trusted" I shouted a little bit 

"You had me and the team, your family" he took a deep breath already frustrated "But no you trusted an assassin who was thought nothing but hatred their entire life and to make it worse she was trained in the Red Room" he shouted back at me 

I was taken back by his words, "Why does that matter?" I yelled back, taking in his features.  "Then do you not trust me?" I asked.  Tears forming in my eyes, did Steve really just say that? No he couldn't have

"Because who knows she could kill anyone at any moment" I looked away for a brief second.  Not only are my sisters and I trained assassins but Yelena, Nat, and I are way more than cold, heartless, assassins.  We are survivors, our childhood was torn from us, "I didn't say that" he said looking at me 

"But you did, if Yelena is a trained assassin then what am I?" I asked, I couldn't look at him anymore.  I turned back in my seat and stared out the window, the clouds white and fluffy under us, its like I could lay on them for hours and forget all my problems

"Tori I didn't mean it like that" he lowered his voice and reached for my hand 

I took my hand out of his grasps and turned to him "Yes you did" I spit back, irritation bubbling up inside of me 

"But I didn't" Steve said again 

"You know what I don't care we are going to get our daughter back and there is nothing getting in the way of that" I took the plane back in my control and focused on flying again

"Tori I'm sorry" he said still looking at me

I ignored him, trying to cool off my emotions myself.  I didn't want to bring my negativity into my daughter's life, "Tori look at me" Steve gripped my chin, making me look at him 

My eyes glossy with tears, a few already running down my face.  "Steve stop" I pulled my head out of his hand, "I heard your opinion and I just want to go the rest of the way in silence" I pleaded turning away from him 

"Okay but Tori I want to say that I'm sorry I didn't mean anything I said" I looked at him "It was just a lot to take in and no Tori you and your sisters are way more than just trained assassins you are a family and a great mother" he said reaching for my hand and this time I didn't pull away 

I let him interlace our fingers together, "I know Steve it just hurt and trust me, Yelena is way more then a trained assassin now" I took my one hand off the controls and just held Steve's hand 

"I'm sorry" we both said at the same time, causing us both to laugh at the same time.  I turned and leaned in, we met in the middle kissing each other

Our kiss was full of different emotions, rough, tiredness, anger, love, and sadness.  All being mixed into one kiss, my salty tears running between our lips.  "Why do we fight like this?" I asked looking into his eyes 

"I don't know," he said, putting his hand on my check, rubbing it smoothly.  "Now turn back to the sky your flying" Steve moving my head with his fingers 

"Okay okay I get it" I said rolling my eyes 

"How much longer?" he asked whining like a little kid 

"We’re almost there just another hour or two" I said giving him a smile before silence took over the jet again
