Natasha POV
I was shot, my rib is damaged, I can't walk without someone helping me. I've been hospitalized for 7 days. Nick and Maria are now taking me home, finally...
Pierce is now in jail, I'm sure he'll get tortured there, like he deserves.
"Nat, We're here" I heard Maria says as she gets the wheelchair in the back of her car.
"Just help me walk, I don't want that thing" I tell her.
We're walking to get inside, my heart begin to beats fast as soon as I heard her voice... How am I gonna explain this to her.
"I was so worried about you!!! What happened?" She says all concerned.
"Let's get inside first"
~~~
"Natasha got shot at the bar, Maria and I invited her for a drink, suddenly there's a fight at the club, someone accidentally shot her because the man he's aiming for run to Natasha. That's all." Nick explains, all lie.
"That's all? What happened to the man who accidentally shot Natasha?" She ask... I know she'll have a lot of questions that's why I stayed quiet.
"I took care of everything, Y/n... I have connections." Nick says and gave Y/n a look.
"Okay" that's all she said.
I look at Nick and Maria, they know what to do, Give us some privacy...

"I know damn well he's lying, Natasha what happened? I'm a lawyer remember? Whoever did this you, I can make sure they're gonna suffer in prison." She explains, concerned look all over her face...
"He's telling the truth Y/n... Let's not talk about it, please?" She sighs and nod.
"I was so worried, you were gone for days... I've waited for you everyday... I'm not just your neighbor, Natasha I'm your friend"
She waited for me everyday...
"I'm so sorry, Y/n..." I said as I stare at her.
"You don't have to be sorry, Natasha there's nothing you should be sorry for."
"I should be, I made you wait in your favorite holiday..." I explain.
"It's okay, Natasha you didn't mean to" she says as she walks closer to me.
"Let me see the wound" she mutter.
"It's not just a wound Y/n. I have a broken rib." She gasps, her eyes went wide and hold my hand.
"What?"
Before she went furious Nick and Maria came to my room with a doctor and a nurse.
"Natasha this is Dr. Sid and he will be the one to check on you once a day and This is Ms. Lily she'll take care of you for One Month. Maria explains.
"Take care of me for a month?" I questioned. I'm not going to let a stranger in my house.
"Yes" Maria answers as I look at nick with a disapproving look.
"Can you give us a minute, Dr. Sid and Ms. Lily?" Both of them nod and left.
"You can't be alone here, Natasha." Maria says while Nick stays quiet.
"I don't trust them, you both know it's hard for me to trust people easily." I explain.
"Natasha how are you gonna recover without someone on your side? It's just for a month" Maria says as a look at Nick.
"Nick... "
"Natasha, you know you can't be here alone while you're like this" Nick says as I roll my eyes.
....
"I'll take care of her"
We all turn around to look at Y/n.
"No"
"Yes"
"Why?"
"You trust me right?" I nod.
"Then let me take care of you."
