It was a beautiful Summer's day, the kind that comes as the season begins its slow blend into Fall. Birds were singing songs of cheer, while children's laughter blended in to fill the streets of Manhattan, but Natasha was none the wiser. No—the redhead was currently lying face down on her couch with her face smushed against the cushions of the faux leather muffling her voice as she spoke to the black cat who was purring beneath her lazy hand., "Can you believe it Liho? She's actually doing it."
Liho tenses as her tone wasn't the usual soft one she took up with him., "I mean, what was so wrong with how we had things?," she scoffs., "Privacy is crucial.," she goes on halfheartedly as she tried to convince herself that your time together was fair as she only loved you behind closed doors., "She doesn't even love her...," her lip began to tremble, and the cat knew it was time to bolt before he became a tissue.
"Great, even you don't want me anymore...," she cries out pitifully., "You always liked her more, my rescue cat, but you love Y/N more..."
"We all do.," Yelena says as an announcement of her arrival, not that Natasha didn't already know she was here, she just didn't care at all., "Go away Yelena, you don't want to be late for the wedding of the season..."
Yelena rolled her eyes at her sisters pointless pity party, she's caused all of her own turmoil here, and as much as she wanted to relentlessly taunt her for that and the disarray of her apartment she knew she was on borrowed time here., "Yeah, the one you could've prevented.," Natasha looked backwards to glare up at her sister, but she was quickly squealing and looking instead at the ceiling of her apartment.
"Yelena! в чем, черт возьми, твоя проблема?" The blonde assassin laughed humorlessly, "прямо сейчас? Это был бы ты идиот!"
(What the fuck is your problem? / Right now? That would be you idiot)
Natasha was furious, partly because her sister just rolled her off of her own couch, but more so that she was right, and she always hated whenever that happened., "Fix this Natalia."
Natasha sighed, rubbing at her temples., "There's nothing to fix Lena, she's moved on, and you know, maybe she's better off for it.," Tears began to well up in the redheads eyes as she tried to come to terms with never having you again but she failed miserably. This last year and a half without you has been torture, but today marks a permanence that even she can't dismiss away, you were about to be irrevocably Carol's and it made her fucking sick to have inadvertently caused this.
You'd given her four of your best years to make her mind up, then another year before you even got with Carol for her to atone for her previous shortcomings. She'd always been too stubborn though, and you were simply tired of being her hideaway so you went on the date. Then the date turned plural, and before she knew it you were planning the wedding that should've always been hers to plan with you.
Natasha gasped when a harsh slap was delivered to her cheek., "Quit the pitying and do something about it Natalia.," she lifted her head to lock eyes with her sister, a subtle fury there but it was quickly masked by the hurt., "No, I can't... She's happy, and I can't give her what she wants."
Yelena was growing agitated the longer Natasha wasted the time her and Wanda have graciously created for her to fix things. The narrow window was only growing more so, and her stubbornness was becoming overplayed., "Natalia, you could easily give her what she wants, give up the need for control, and let her love you on a fucking beach or at the Denny's.." Yelena's fingers gripped the collar of Natasha's shirt to hold her in place while she scolded her.
The older widow was taken aback by the way her younger sister spoke to her, but she wasn't too shocked, Lena loved you tremendously, and she never shied away from reminding Natasha of the mistake losing you was., "Seriously Natasha, if I can let Kate Bishop take me to the carnival, and make me play those silly games that are rigged for a cheap stuffed animal then so can you with Y/N—the women of your heart deserves better, and quite frankly so do you."
