The end of the endgame was complete bullshit (for me :)) so I rewrote it how I wanted it to be
In this story Steve doesn't go back in time to be with Peggy, but instead is able to get Nat back. Will they finally get their chance on "happily ever aft...
N: I am married. Or I was married. Well, when I was 17 a bunch of soldiers were transferred from hydra to our facility, to help with some missions.
S: Like bucky?
N: No, James came to teach, these guys came later. They would go in a few missions and leave again. So, once, I had this mission with a soldier called Alexei. He was so good Steve, so pure, kind of reminds me of you.
N: He was there because hydra had something against his mom, and his sister was sick, and Hydra offered to pay for her cares if he worked for them. He hated it, hated killing, hated fighting, but like most of us, he didn't have an option.
N: I slowly fell in love with him. When I was around 18, we started to date secretly. We were obviously not allowed to date anyone, so me and him would snick out of the compound to be together. When I turned 19, he asked me to marry him. I said yes.
S: So, you love someone else... - his heart broke a little bit more
N: I do love him Steve, I always will, but is not what you think. Alexei and I got married soon after. We were happy for a while, really happy, until the man that controlled the Red Room, Ivan, found out about us.
S: Oh, shit!
N: Language. But yeah. Oh, shit. He was killed Steve. Ivan killed him in front of me. I am legally married because Ivan made sure no one would find his body, but I'm not taken, because my husband is dead.
S: Nat I'm so sorry. Gosh I feel so stupid...
N: Don't. You had no way of knowing that I was a widow, is not like I told anyone.
S: Why didn't you? Told anyone? Told me? You know I don't care about your past right?
N: I know, but it just hurt too much.
S: I understand
N: I don't think you do Steve; he was my Peggy
S: God I'm so sorry Nat, I can't imagine what that must have felt like
N: He was my first love and losing him hurt more than I thought it was possible to hurt, but I intend for you to be my last Steve. After I lost him, I never though I would love like that again, that I would be happy like that again. I thought I had my one in a million, and I was ok with that.
But than you came, and God did I fall. I fell hard and I will keep falling everyday, if you let me. I'm not good with words but what I'm trying to say is that you gave me something I never thought I could have, and for that I'll be forever thankful, and if you give me a chance, I'll show you how thankful I am, every day, for as long as you can take me.
S: I love you Nat. God I love you so much it hurts
N: I know the feeling.
