Ghost

Chapter Thirty Six

Nats POV

Spencer and Yelena left shortly after the movie ended. I can't say I wasn't disappointed as I watched Spencer drive them away from the house on her motorcycle.

We had kept our positions for pretty much the entirety of the movie, only moving closer when I had the chance. I have nothing to say. No excuses. I just wanted to be as close to her as possible. Which I know isn't fair because of Yelena. I have to respect their relationship and I will. That was a momentary lapse in control and it won't happen again. Yup.

Anyway, it's morning and I've been kind of just laying in bed on my phone for awhile. I did not want to get up and since I didn't have to rush to some mission or meeting, I didn't.

I suppose I could just see what Yelena is doing. Hang out with her until Spencer is done with work. Maybe we could even stop by the tattoo shop..

To discuss our tattoo. Obviously there is no other motivation. It's also something to do. And Alexei wanted me to see it, so might as well.

Yes, I'm trying to reason with myself on why I'm going. Shut up.

I quickly dial Yelena's number, hoping she'd pick up. She does.

"Hello?" I think I woke her up by the sound of her voice. Oh god. Don't tell me they were still in bed. I literally facepalm.

"Hello? Natasha?" Oh shit right. Didn't actually answer her.

"Sorry, I must have woken you?" I half apologize. It's pretty late in the morning, she's fine. Unless she didn't go to bed until late..

Holy hell. I need to stop.

"Uh, only kind of. I should be up anyway. I just didn't have much planned for the day. What's up?"

I can hear her start to get up and move around. "Well I didn't really know what to do today so I thought maybe we could hang out? Have some sister time?" It's true! I want to hang out with her. We do actually have a lot to catch up on.

"Oh. Yeah, we should! We have so much to catch up on." It's a sister thing, what can I say.

"Perfect! Could you come get me? We could stay here or go back to your place?" I don't know of anywhere to really go.

"Actually, have you had breakfast? Cause there's this little place Spencer and I love to go to. I think you'd like it."

It's a great idea but I kind of hate that it's like their place. Which is selfish? "I haven't eaten, that would be perfect." I manage to say through gritted teeth. I need to pull my shit together before we hang out. I can not be upset that they have places. Of course they do.

"Okay! I just need to get ready real quick and I'll pick you up? Maybe like in an hour? Oh and we could stop by and see Spencer and Alexei at the shop? If you want."

I can feel her smile from here. She's happy. I'm happy she's happy. But she also brought up going to the shop so like, I can't say no? "Yeah, that totally works for me."

"I'll see you in a an hour!"

With that I hung up, jumping out of bed to find something to wear. The excitement has nothing to do with Spencer. Finding the right outfit might have a little bit to do with her..
