Scarlett Johansson/ Natasha Romanoff one shot

Paralysed (N.R)

Nat pov

I have been extremely worried about Y/N, she is currently on a mission with Steve, Tony and bucky. They were supposed to come back hours ago. I've had Wanda and Yelena to keep me company while they've been away. We haven't really heard anything off them in hours either. We were all soon broken out of our bubble when we heard jarvis announce their arrival. We all ran to the landing bay to watch as Steve and bucky rushed Y/N to the med bay. She had a metal rod sticking out of her lower back. 

"What happened?" I asked them as we all watched Bruce and Dr cho work.

"There was more agents than we knew about and then they had set bombs around the base and they started to go off." Steve said as his eyes never left Y/N. "She pushed me out of the way as I pushed bucky. I'm so sorry Nat." He said as tears slipped down his cheeks as we all continued to watch her being cut open.

"She'll be fine Nat. She's the strongest person i know." Wanda said softly as she hugged me. We were both upset because I could lose the love of my life while she's best friends with wanda. Y/N made sure to take Wanda under her wing when she joined us after her brother died. Everyone else was still unsure of her but Y/N wasn't. She didn't care about what she had done, she only cares about what she will do in the future. She helped her train all the time both with or without her powers. She actually took the time to get to know her more. Y/N truly is one of a kind.

I don't know how long we were stood there for watching because as they were stitching her up everyone else besides me and Wanda had left.

"How is she?" I asked as soon Dr cho walked in.

"She's alive. She's paralysed from the waist down as the metal rod severed her spinal cord. She's currently in asleep from the anasteatic but will wake up when she's ready to." She said with a soft smile before she left us. We both walked in and sat down beside her holding her hand. I don't know how long we stayed by her side until Wanda spoke up.

"I'm going to go to bed. I think you should do the same Nat." She said softly as she kissed Y/Ns head and gave me a hug before she left. I didn't want to leave her side, I know when she wakes up she's going to be distraught that she's paralysed. She's not going to be able to do much anymore. But I will be here for her everyday.

It was the next morning when I woke up in the chair beside her. Once I raised my head to look at her I noticed her eyes already on me.

"Hey baby, you're awake." I said softly with a smile as I gave her a gentle kiss.

"Hey." She said softly as she looked at me. "There's something I need to know isn't there?" She asked as she looked straight into my soul.

"Yes baby. I'm not sure how I'm going to tell you this but." I started before she finished for me.

"I'm paralysed aren't I?" She said with a sad smile.

"I'm sorry baby." I said as I kissed her head as she let her tears flow.

"What am I supposed to do now. I can't stay here since I'm useless now." She said as she covered her face.

"Yes you can stay here. No one is ever going to kick you out because you're family. You're more than just going on missions with everyone." I said to her softly as I kissed her head. She stayed silent for the rest of the night.

It has been a month since Y/N has left the med bay. I've been with her everyday when i haven't been called for missions and when I'm not there Wanda helps her. I can see that she is slowly starting to lose herself.

I was coming back from my mission with Wanda as Bruce said that he would look after Y/N. When we walked into the living area we saw Bruce sat on the sofa with his hands on his face.
