It had only been a year since me and Natasha had been together.But now everything was falling to pieces,nat had become distant with her not replying to calls or texts,regularly avoiding me and us arguing a lot.

Which ended up having a massive toll on me,with me thinking it was just going to blow over like always and we would be fine again.I did love her,still the negative thoughts always got through.

One night,i had to stay at work for a few extra hours so i came home late.All I desired to do was to see nat,to pull her against me and breath her in.Not wanting to wake her,i tiptoe over to our shared bedroom.

Slightly opening the door,i peak my head through the gap.Only to see my girlfriend in bed with another man,and it so happened to be the Bruce banner.I held everything in,no matter how much i wanted to sob or break down,i let it go over my head.

Shutting the door,i resist the urge to cry and decide I would sleep on the couch,still some tears fell from my eyes as i pressed my hand to my mouth,silencing the faint sobs.

The next morning,i cringed at the sound of creaking footsteps walking past me.I instantly knew it was Bruce trying to make a stealthy exit,how could someone who seemed so innocent be such an asshole?

I listened as the door closed,pretending that the noise woke me up.There my eyes met with Natasha's,her eyes broad for a moment."y/n your finally awake."she says giving me a small smile."yeah."

"How come you slept on the couch?"she asks.
Oh,how come you hooked up with that green grape and didn't even have the decency to clean up after yourself? "oh i was so tired from work-i guess i just collapsed on the couch."

"You feel better know though right?"she pouts,kissing my forehead softly.I had to give it too her,she was a good actress.

"Well im just going to have a shower babe,love you."she kisses my lips gently before walking over to the bathroom.I fall back onto the couch,letting out a loud sigh.I had so many questions,what was i going to do?was she going to tell me the truth?does anyone else know?

I rubbed my eyes and got up from the couch cautiously,feeling the need to drink something.I grabbed a cup as i filled it up with water,chugging it down all at once.

When i heard the shower go,i waited a few minutes before entering our "shared" bedroom. She had just finished putting on her shirt while she gave me a grin,"hi."

"Okay just cut the crap."i speak up,catching her off guard."w-what?"she whispers."you know what I'm talking about." "I don't-" "natasha!"i cut her off.

"What?"she replys,putting her pjs back into her closet."when were you going to tell me?"i ask,crossing my arms."tell you what."she says dumbfounded.

"Are you serious-you were sleeping with Bruce!"i yell,it was taking my all to not break down in front of her.For once,nat was actually speechless."that's it?you have nothing to say."

My eyes fixated on her as she shakes her head,"how long?" "What?"
I pause,taking in a deep breath,"how long have you been hooking you with him."i just wanted an honest answer,though i knew it was going to be saddening.

"2 months."not a single tear fell from her eye when those words left her mouth."look y/n im sorry..I was going to tell you-"
"when?i saw you two last night!"
"I know,i know,it's just i kinda w-well.."

"i don't love you anymore."

"oh."

The room went silent,my heart started to ache with standing just two meters away from someone who told me they just fell out of love.
"I think it's best i pack my things and leave.."she speaks up as i quickly nod,walking out of the room.

I sat down on the couch while attempting to control my emotions,it didn't take her long to pack everything up,"well,i guess this is goodbye." "yeah..bye."i give her a weak smile which she returns.

A split second after that door closed,the tears started to descend,following with loud sobs falling from my lips.I instantly gripped onto my phone and went onto contacts,clicking on the first one.

Tapping on the call icon,it started to ring but the screen went blurry from my tears."hello,y/n you there?..what's wrong?"a voice comes from the other end."w-wanda.."i whimper,covering my mouth.

"Y/n?are you okay?"she asks,her voice concealed in concern."can you come over,i r-really need you right now."i wail,wiping my eyes with my sleeve."yeah of course,just hang in there okay?I'll be there in a second."

"o-ok."i listened to the line go and turned off my phone,waiting for Wanda to show up since i really didn't have anything else to do.It felt like a few minutes before she arrived,as her loud knocking snapped me out of my day dreaming.

I tiredly got up from my bed and walked over to the door,took the lock off and opened the door to meet a distressed Wanda."shit-y/n what happened?"she exclaims,quickly walking past me and shutting the door for me.

"Well,long story short..nat cheated on me."my sentence ended with a sob as Wanda brought me into her arms,I could feel her grip tighten around me faintly."im so sorry..she doesn't deserve you and trust me it will get better,i know it feels like its all going to fall apart but i promise it will."

I rested my head against her chest,observing the rhythm of her heartbeat."wanda."i speak up."hm?" "Thank you." "Oh don't worry about it,i always knew nat was bad from the start."she mentions which makes me look up at her."what do you mean?"

"Well,she took one look at you and got with you-she never really cared or cherished you the way you deserved to be..nat was just lonely at the time and needed someone to fill in that space."wanda explains,loosening her grip around me.

"I never really looked at it that way."

"Well when your in love,your too into that person to give a crap."

"Hey y/n."wanda whispers.

"Yeah?"

"Did you forget to take your makeup off yesterday?"a smile starts to tug on her lips,"oh shit,i forgot..it's all over my face isn't it?"

"You could say that."she says followed with a giggle,"you still look pretty." I could sense myself starting to go red instantly,"let me take it off for you."

"Oh no,you don't have to do that-"
"-it's the least i can do since you just got your heart broken."she cuts me off,usually my stubbornness would get in the way from her doing anything off the sort but I already looked like a mess and couldn't be bothered.

"Fine."I breathed as she took me to the bathroom.I sat on the counter while she grabbed a pack of makeup wipes from the side,proceeding to take one.

"Close your eyes."she demands and starts to wipe away the dried mascara and outlines of were i had been crying from the foundation."did you get much sleep last night?"She asks."no-can you tell?"I say,gesturing to my dark circles.

"Yeah but everyone has that when they wake up in the morning and it doesn't make you any less gorgeous."she says,tucking a bit of hair behind my ear,"I can say the same about you."i giggle.
