CAROUSEL - {Natasha Romanoff x OC reader}

A FRIEND? (with benefits)

The day finished up quickly , I was done with all my classes today and since i'd somehow found myself missing lunch , me , Elliot and Naya were now sat outside the front of the university , talking , eating and laughing.

"what did Miss Romanoff want with you then huh ?" Naya teased.

"wait , what happened with Miss Romanoff ?" Elliot asked.

Part of me felt guilty for not telling them yet , another part thought it was too late to tell them, another thought that i should let it all out , tell Them.

"i have to go detentions with her everyday until my attitude towards learning improves" I scoffed with an ignorant laugh.

"yikes thats harsh , but i mean , she makes a fair point" Naya replied.
"just be careful it doesn't turn into high school all over again" She continued , somewhat joking but also posing a serious warning.

"yeah i know , i know , look- i'll be fine"I said before plopping a raspberry in my mouth .

"are those all you've eaten today ?" Asked Elliot.

I thought for a moment , not really having a clear memory of my day so far , this thing has been happening recently where i cant tell if something happened that day or on a different day.

"yeah i think so" I replied.

He raised his eyebrows and gave me a look.
"oh come on- don't give me that look" I defended.

He sighed "take the raspberries to Romanoff's detention , tell her you haven't eaten today and i'm sure she'll let you snack in class"

I shook my head 'no' "nah uh , i'll look stupid , i'll eat dinner with Naya when i get back to the dorm" I tried to reason.

Naya rolled her eyes , I could tell she was thinking the same as Elliot , they both had always been weary that i would slip and fall back into my bad habits , but they had nothing to worry about , i've got it under control and i always will.

I glanced down at my phone.
4:04pm
'shit' I thought to myself "she's gonna kill me"

"What" Naya looked up from her phone in a state of confusion.

"who's going to kill you and why ?" Elliot asked.

"Romanoff , her detention was 4 minutes ago" I said and threw my head into my hands.

"maybe i just wont go and say that there was a dorm emergency". I said , trying to come up with a story already.

"yeah..don't think thats gonna work" Naya said uneasily.

I looked up at her , her eyes glued to something behind me. I swiveled my body around from where i was sat on the grass and saw Natasha walking straight towards us , with intention and hostility might i add.

"fuck , fuck , fuck" I whispered repeatedly.
"fu-"

"Miss Hanesley" A sweet but sinister voice came from behind me.

I turned to look up at Miss Romanoff , she stood next to me , looking down at the three of us.

"i do believe you have a detention in..." She looked down at her watch with a smile on her face "four minutes ago" she continued , dropping her smile to a stone cold expression.

"i know , i know , i'm sorry i didn't notice the time" I hurried to stand up , brushing off any potential dirt from my outfit.

Before i could say anything else Naya interrupted "uh Professor , Kali hasn't eaten today" She handed Natasha the pot of raspberries which was practically full "i was just wondering if you could make sure she eats these at some point during your detention"
