Y/N's POV
I slept for maybe four hours while holding Nat before I felt the urge to get up.
I can sleep when I'm dead.
It's 7AM, so I'm going to make Nat's favorite breakfast and bring it to her in bed.
—————
"Good morning my love!" I say while gently shaking her a bit
"No. Lay down!" She groans
"Baby, I've been up for a bit. I've got breakfast for us." I say trying to coax her awake
"Sh..."
"French. Toast." I whisper those two words into her ear and suddenly she's wide awake
"You should've led with that!"
"So sorry my gentle pet names aren't enough for you. I'll bribe you with different breakfast foods from now on, is that what you want?" I question with an eye roll
"Yes! Exactly. Glad you understand"
"Just hush up and eat!"
Nat's POV
Y/N just took our dishes to the kitchen so I am just patiently waiting for her to return.
"Five minutes? That's too long! Be faster. Now come give me cuddles please."
"Baby, five minutes is plenty fast enough to go to the kitchen and back" she retorts back
"Not to me when I'm in need of cuddles!" I whine back at her with a pouty lip trying to make her feel guilty
"I'm so sorry. I'll do better in the future" she sarcastically lets out while jumping in bed with me. She snuggles into me and I can tell she didn't sleep well.
"Baby, we don't leave until like 3PM, take a nap. You look so tired after last nights events." I tease but am also being completely serious
"No, I want to spend all the time with you" she tries to argue back
"Sleeping in my arms is spending it with me. I'll set an alarm for 10AM. That gives us two bonus snuggle hours. Please!" I all but beg
"Fine..."
—————
"Wake up sleepy head!" I say as it's now my time to wake her up. I didn't sleep a wink. I just spent two glorious hours watching her sleep. She's so beautiful when she's in a peaceful sleep.
"Five more minutes"
"Fine! But none more" I concede not actually minding at all.
"Get up!" I say while tickling her sides. Within one full swoop my arms are being help above my head and she's now peppering my face with kisses.
"Baby, stop, what are you doing?" I laugh out
"Payback!" She says sternly but then she gets up and pulls me up with her.
"Time to start our day love." She states while getting dressed.
Y/N's POV
Now that we've gotten some of our last snuggles in I need to get prepared for today. I start by finding my dad, mom and Morgan. I spend time with them until Pep & Morgan have to go.
Then I make my way to the kitchen to make my famous Mac & Cheese for everybody's lunch. I'm trying to spend a little time with everybody to soften the blow. I can tell Nebula knows what's up, but she kinda owes me, so she's staying silent. I'm a bit nervous, I know Clint's going to put up a fight, but I'm always like three steps ahead of him. So I'll definitely win ... or I guess lose? Either way I'm nervous, I don't want to die, but I've already rationalized that it has to be me.
"Baby... Catch me!" Nat yells while running full force at me. I stumble but catch her just fine
"Why'd you do that love?"
"You seemed distracted and I wanted to test if you'd still hear me and catch me in that state"
"How sweet. What if I didn't? Then what huh?"
"Well then we'd be on the ground then silly!" She says before pecking me cheeks as if it's the most obvious thing
"You always push the limits. You're absolutely bonkers, and I couldn't love you anymore"
She kisses me in response then pulls me down to the couch to hold me on her lap. I can tell she's trying to distract me, she knows I'm nervous, if only she actually knew.
"You feeling better?" She asks
"I'm always better with you!" I respond
"So cheesy..." she giggles
"Well, it's true!" I retort back
"I couldn't love you anymore either." She says pulling me in again.
Nat's POV
My baby is so nervous, and I am too, but hers is just off the charts. So now I'm just going to hold her until I can't anymore. I lay back and pull her down on top of me and just stroke my hand through her hair.
"You excited to see Yelena tomorrow?"
"Well duh! But she's gonna want you more!" I say in faux annoyance
"Oh hush. I might be cooler, but you're her big sister .. oh ... You're right!" She mocks me
"Cyka"
"You say that like I don't know what that means"
"Oh, I know you know!" I reply smugly
She rolls us over, straddling me, and holding my hands above my head
"Take it back!" She asserts
"Why would I? I kinda like where this is going.."
"Nuh uh, you horn dog!" She says as she lets my hands go
"Bad move!" I say before pulling her down and smashing our faces together, and not letting up.
We make out for what feels like forever, but is only like five minutes before we're rudely interrupted.
Y/N's POV
As we're in a very heated make out we hear someone clearing their throat.
"Showtime love birds" I hear my dad shout
I respond by throwing a pillow at his head
"Give us five!" I shout back
"Let's go baby. We'll have all the time i. The world when we get back." She smiles giving me a final peck as she goes to walk away
I grab her wrist and pull her back in.
"One more minute" I plead knowing the truth
"For good luck..." I bargain
She laughs and pulls me in for a final kiss. It's long and full of all our love for each other. I lull away and kiss her forehead, then her cheeks, then peck her lips again.
"I love you!" I say while staring deeply into her eyes.
Nat's POV
"I love you more" I reply
"Impossible!" She replies while pulling us in the direction of the others.
As we're putting on our suits I can't help but feel uneasy. I feel like she might know something I don't. We're going in blind, we don't know the circumstances of some of these stones. I know she loves me, but she's been making sure I know as if she knows something. She could just be being cautious and I'm probably just overthinking. It's time to bring our families and all those who were dusted back.
"Whatever it takes!" I hear Steve say as he finishes his big hero speech
As Y/N and I ascend onto the platform she whispers "Yelena would've hated that speech" causing me to chuckle in agreement.
I peck her cheek and say
"See you in a minute" with a smirk before we Pym particle through time and space.
Y/N's POV
We just got to Morag, before Clint & I take off in Rocket's ship I steal one last look at my wife. I give her a hug and tell her to be safe. I do the same with Rhodey and Nebula who gives me a knowing glance.
"Off we go!" I say to Clint
"Goodbye my love." I say to her knowing the finality behind my words
"See you in a minute!" She reiterates with a smile.
I just give her my best smile back and blow her a kiss as I enter the ship.
Clint's POV
I'm flying us to Vormir and Y/N looks like she's deep in thought.
"You good kid?" I say trying to pull her out of her head.
"Of course! Just nervous for the team is all. This is unchartered territories for many of us."
"Yeah, but we got this! We have a lot of people to avenge." I say trying to reassure her.
"Yeah. You excited to see Laura and the gremlins?" She asks playfully changing the subject
"Obviously!"
"Hug them for me please!" She says almost like she won't be able to do it herself
"You'll hug them yourself"
"I know, I just thought you'd want them all to yourself for awhile." She says unconvincingly
Before the conversation continues we're landing.
"Wow... It's beautiful." Y/N mutters
"Yeah, under different circumstances this would've been a nice trip." I reply bringing us back to reality
Y/N's POV
As we both reach the top of this horrid cliff we're both nearly winded.
"Wow... These last five years of little to no training is catching up to me." I laugh out to break the tension
Before he can reply we're interrupted.
"Welcome. Clint, son of Edith. Y/N daughter of Tony." Some weird red floaty guy echos out
We both raise our weapons in confusion towards the mystery figure.
"Who are you?" Clint asks
"Consider me a guide. To you, and all those who seek the Soul Stone"
"Oh, good! Tell us where it is and we'll be on our way." Clint replies
"What you seek lies in front of you... as does what you fear" he speaks out like I true fortune teller
"The stone is down there?" Clint questions
"For one of you. For the other... In order to take the stone, you must lose that which you love. An everlasting exchange. A soul, for a soul."
SHIT! I have to jump off of a cliff. Well, I knew this wouldn't be easy ...
"Jesus... Maybe he's making this shit up!" Clint shouts
"Nope..." I shakily reply
"Why do you say that?"
"It's in the damn name Clint... Gamora never came back. Nebula said this is 'the dominion of death'.." I say giving myself away
"Wait! You knew? You knew and told nobody?" He shouts while approaching me
"I had to do it this way! If we don't get the stones millions of people stay dusted. I weighed the options out and this was the best option. It has to be me Clint!" I shout at him
"No! You're not doing this! You can't..."
"I can, and I will. I love you so much. You've been the best honorary brother I've ever had. Take care of her for me." I say through my tears
"You take care of her yourself!" He says while slamming me to the ground and running towards the cliff
"Nah, you got this!" I say as I hit him with a high voltage widow bite I might've stolen from my wife.
As he falls down I make a run for it, but before I can jump he shoots an explosive arrow towards me throwing me off. He gets up and makes the jump. I follow him and attach him to the cliff with a grappling hook ... I might've stolen my wife's back up mission belt...
"No!"
"I've always been one step ahead of you." I laugh out as he tries to reach me and pull me up.
"You asshole! It shouldn't be you!"
"It shouldn't be anyone..." I sadly reply
"Yeah ... but... please. Let me do this. They are gonna be devastated."
"It's okay!"
"No it's not!" He shouts down to me
"I love you buddy" I say as I kick off the cliff and out of his grasp. I fall with a vision of my life.
My wife smiling at me is the last thing I see before my mind goes blank.
Nat's POV
We did it! I look around and we're all coming back. Clint's back, but he's alone...
"Clint! Where's Y/N?" I say as my heart drops into my stomach already knowing the answer.
He stares up to me with nothing but sorrow in his eyes.
"It was supposed to be me... but she was a step ahead... she always was." He mutters to himself
"WHAT HAPPENED?!" I shout at an alarmingly loud level
"A soul, for a soul ... That's what the stupid red floaty guy said. She knew what was coming. She put the pieces together before we ever set off."
"Oh God ... This is my fault. She convinced me to change the people around. She was so convincing. I never questioned a thing." He stutters out
I'm not even listening at this point, my whole body is ready to shut down
"Who was it supposed to be?" Clint questions
"You and Natasha" Steve replies
That gets my attention... It was for me.
"Wait , what? This is my fault?" I question through tears
"No! It didn't matter who it was originally. She said she weighed out the options and she was the only 'rational' one to do it. She felt like everyone else was of more value. She wouldn't of let anyone of us die. I tried. I fought so hard!" Clint yells through his sobs
"Yeah... You've never beaten her before..." I chuckle through my sobs
"Bullshit!" Tony finally mutters
"I said I'd do this but I can't lose what I have... Now I've already lost..." he continues
"Then we make it worth it!" Steve says trying to make it better as he always does. "Bring everyone back, so her sacrifice isn't in vain."
"Yeah... Back to a world where most of their favorite person is gone." I whisper as I slip out and go to her old room.
"You fucking idiot! You promised me forever and now I'm all alone..." I cry out as I walk in. There's a hoodie laying on the bed with a note on top.
"We've reached forever my love... Go home!" is all it says. So fucking cryptic. I do exactly as I'm told though. I put the hoodie on, along with a pair of her sweats and grab my keys. As I leave I see Bruce and Rocket assembling the gauntlet and stone. I have no need to sit and watch!
I'm. Going. Home. !2,343 words .. Between writing these words physically and them typing them up my hand is cramping 😂
Part 3 will be out either later today or sometime tomorrow night!
Thank you, Kaitlyn ☺️
