The Interviews

-------------

1 year later:

"It's obviously been a hard presidency for you specifically, your life became public and there was an attempt against your life in the same year, and I can't imagine the many other private matters. How do you deal with the pressure?" The interviewer asks me.

"I have great people by my side. The kids at the center help keep me connected and show me all the memes, which I find to be hilarious. Sydney might appear quite serious but she's really very funny and never fails to make me laugh, Theo's a very sweet kid, and his hugs always make me feel so much better, Wanda, my parents, they're just great people," I smile.

"Last year you also denied an engagement," She taps the pen to her lip, I nod. "Could you tell us why?"

"Our paths were heading in opposite directions, we both wanted very different things," I simply put it.

"People suspect that a growing relationship between you and Senator Romanoff might have caused the drift,"

I narrow my eyes at the interviewer, Wanda said she would be tough. I turn to look at Wanda for any advice she gestured for me to keep going. I take a moment to decide my next words carefully.

"y/n?" The interviewer says to get my attention.

"Yes," I say, the audience gasps, "I was coming to terms with my sexuality and feelings, he was open to letting me explore it because he is just that great of a man and I thank him for what he did for me." I finally say, not knowing whether I was making a mistake or not.

"You have previously stated that you and the Senator had a brief sexual relationship, there were videos that came out about a year after the announcement that you and Eden Vos had broken up, around the same time you announced in your Vogue interview that you were in a same-sex relationship, did this 'brief' relationship last a year?" She asks, I could read the confusion in her face. I laugh nervously.

"The senator and I were in a committed relationship actually, but what seems to be a common theme for my love life, we decided that it was best that we focus on our careers."

"You did great," Wanda says walking with me to the car.

"I froze," I walk faster. "what did I do?" I cover my face with my hands.

"It's not as bad as you think. People were already starting to speculate, you made Eden an ally, and most importantly didn't expose Nat for her cheating, "

I pause in front of the blonde agent, we stare into each other's eyes I give him a smile which he kindly returns. He opens the car doors and I slide in.

"What was that?" Wanda smirks.

"What was what?"

"Did something happen between you two?" She teases.

"With an agent? No that would be inappropriate,"

"That's never stopped you before, The guy who carried you away from danger. How romantic?" She laughs, I give her a warning look. She picks up her buzzing phone and her smile disappears when she reads the screen. "She's...... She's making a statement,"

"Who?" I say, taking a sip of water. She takes on many high-profile clients, it was common for her to be working with multiple people at a time.

"Natasha," She almost whispers, I almost choke on the water and whip my head to look at her.

"Turn on the TV," I demand Sydney, who was waiting with Theo for me and Wanda to get back.

"Hi, how are you? How was your interview?" She says offended at my lack of a greeting. I snatch the remote out of her hand and turn it on myself.

Cameras were flashing on her face as she approached the New York State Senate Podium.

Sydney dropped her anger towards me once Wanda explained to her what was happening. We gather on the couch and listen silently.

"I'll take some questions," Natasha says and the reporter's voices erupt shouting their uncertainties at her. She points to someone.

"Y/N Phoenix had an interview this morning where she revealed some details about your relationship with her, do you have anything to say regarding her statements?" A masculine voice says.

"She lied," She simply states, the crowd erupts again with questions. My face heats up with anger.

"Were you not in a committed relationship with her?" A woman's voice says after she was pointed to.

"We were," She says with a smile, the crowd was quiet.

"What was it that Y/N Phoenix lied about?" the same voice asks.

"She said we broke up because we wanted to focus on our careers," Natasha starts.

"What the fuck is she doing?" I whisper to the TV.

"I appreciate her for caring enough to try to cover for me, but I should take responsibility for my actions,"

"No way," Sydney and Wanda say in unison.

"I was unfaithful, the video that came out of us on the couch wasn't her at all, though of course, she did not come out to say that because she was protecting me. I'm not proud of it, and I wish I hadn't done it. But now all I can do is take responsibility and apologize," Natasha looks straight into the camera, "I'm sorry Y/N," 

"What the Fuck," We all say loudly.

"You said a curse," Theo screams.
