As We Collide

twelve.

It's been a little over a month since Nat and I have been together. Getting to know this woman is definitely an honor and a pleasure and apparently new for her since every girl she dated after Gamora won't even last a week or two. She checks on me all the time. Making sure if I'm still okay and if our relationship is still in a good place which for me has always been great since I met her. After all, she was the reason why grieving over Pietro has been easier the moment she came into my life.

Although, I am not able to figure out if her checking on me, contantsly asking if 'we're okay' is sweet or sad. Gamora and the other girls definitely broke this woman. Nat is a strong and fierce woman on the outside but after getting to know her even more, she's really delicate and vulnerable in the inside. She definitely still has trust issues because of everything that has happened to her and I don't blame her at all.

Nat and I went out with my friends last night and we definitely had one too many drinks. I wasn't even sure about the time when we got home but I am so sure that it was very late. My head was throbbing badly when I woke up and I was having a hard time opening my eyes. Suddenly, there was this loud banging on the bedroom door which was now escalating my headache into an impending migraine.

Natasha was still fast asleep and could not be bothered with sound of the loud banging from the door. My friends gave her a hard time at the club last night and forced her to drink so much more than what she could take. At this point, she can sleep over an alien invasion if that would ever happen.

The banging hasn't stopped and it was actually getting harsher that my ears started to ring. I dragged myself out of bed and marched my way towards the door. I was about to flung it open when I realized that Nat and I should be alone in her loft and no one knows her passcode other than the psycho bitch she used to date or her driver. I've had it with this woman so I shook my head and took a deep breath before opening the door. 

I was only going to open it slightly just to be safe but the door was forcefully pushed against me and someone grabbed my hand and twisted it to lock it behind my back before I was spun around to make my back face that person. Then there was this sudden chill that travelled through my body when I felt something cold against my throat. My mind was able to process it and realized that it was a knife. 

"It's amazing how you're still here, pequeña perra." the person hissed. 

The voice of the person made my blood boil, making my hands form a fist. It was Gamora and I am not surprised. I was waiting for her to return the day Yelena warned me about her. 

"What are you doing here, Gamora?" I snarled.

"I came by to give you a warning. Natalia is mine and if you don't take a hint by leaving, you're gonna regret it." she whispered.

"I'm not scared of you, Gamora. You don't know who I am. Nat is not yours and you're the one who can't take a hint. She dumped you two years ago. You don't belong here and you do not deserve her at all." I retorted.

She added more pressure to the knife into me that I can feel a burning sensation drilling in my neck. It wasn't deep but I could feel the pain. I should be scared right now but I wasn't. My anger was seeping through me and little by little, she's giving me more reason for me to make her regret this moment. 

"GAMORA, WHAT THE FUCK!" Nat yelled as she jumped out of bed in panic. Her panic quickly turned into pure rage and I can see it in her face. "LET HER GO, YOU PSYCHO. I SWEAR TO GOD." she warned as her fists tightened.

"Or what, Natalia? You make one wrong move and her throat will split open. So, unless you want to see her choke in her own blood, I suggest for you to stay put." Gamora provoked.
