"I see you've landed," Kate says to me on the phone.

"How do you- I literally just got off the plane, how do you even know that?"

"Security company," She states, "Where should I meet you?"

"I'm actually headed to the hotel, I have to check out the center first. I have lunch with Nat, so I'll see you for dinner?"

"Ugh fine," she groans.

I get to the hotel to shower and change. The Center was coming along great, I could tell that the community was excited about it when parents came up to tell me how excited they were. I was feeling great on my way to lunch because of it. I sit and wait for Natasha to arrive. 30 minutes go by and she was still not here. I double-checked the address she gave me, It was here. I see her name flash along my screen.

"Hey, I'm here. Where are you?"

Y/N, I'm sorry. I'm swamped with work right now and I can't make it.

I take a while to think of something to say but my mind goes blank.

Y/N?

"No, it's okay I get it." I finally say.

I'm really sorry, maybe we can try for dinner

I hum my response and hang up to dial Kate.

You got stood up?

I look around the room for her.

Security company. stay right there, be there soon. Order me whatever you're having

I smile at her instant understanding.

"Woah you got here quick," I say to her, she was panting.

"The office is only 15 minutes away, but I ran so.." She slumps down onto the seat.

"Why did you run?"

"I didn't want you to cry in a restaurant by yourself, that's just pathetic," She chugs the glass of water.

"Why would I cry?" I laugh.

"Natasha isn't here," She finally gets control over her breath and opens her phone.

"She's stuck at work, that's a perfectly understandable reasoning," I explain.

"Hmm, look at that she is," She laughs and turns the phone so I could see. A little green dot was on a map of her office and the top read NATASHA ROMANOFF.

"This feels extremely illegal," I narrow my eyes at her.

"Enough about that, let's go have some fun," She urges. The waiter comes and sets down our meals. "After we eat," She dives into the food with her fork.

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

"When you said let's have fun, I didn't think you mean get arrested," I say to Kate as I look out of the cell into the dim hallway.

"I didn't know it was the wrong car, the guy said he'd leave it at that spot and all we had to do was hotwire it because the keys were lost,"

"And that didn't sound a bit suspicious to you?"

"Well now that I think of it, asking to meet at an abandoned warehouse is pretty sketchy,"

"You think," I say frustrated even though I was in on the plan. I turn my attention to the officer at the desk. "Sir- officer sir? Sorry. My mother's the president," I pause to see if that would get a reaction out of him, then cringe at the words that just came out of my mouth.
