"If you really cared about me, you wouldn't have left."

"I had to leave, Y/n, it's my job!"

"I know it's your job, that's not the point!"

The fight goes on as so many other times before. Always after Natasha finds out she'll have to spend months away in god knows what country this time. Always after she had promised it would be the last time.

"Then what's the point, Y/n?" The redhead asks with her arms crossed in annoyance, and you mimic the action stubbornly. "The point is that you keep leaving after you say you won't. What happened to finding a steady position at home?"

"I wasn't able to-"

"Bulshit!" You interrupt angrily. "Steve told me you turned down the promotion Fury offered you." The accusation makes Natasha widen her eyes slightly in surprise, and the raise of your brows gets a sigh from the redhead.

"I didn't want to do it." She tells, defeated, "My job makes me happy the way it is."

"And I don't?" You challenge, disguising your hurt with a locked jaw, and Natasha scoffs annoyedly. "My god, Y/n, that's not what I said. Of course you do."

"Then what about our plans? The idea was to get enough money so we could start a family. What happened to that?" You ask, but Natasha only holds your gaze with teary eyes.

"I have to go now." Are the next words she says after a moment of silence, and you sigh defeatedly, your hands on your waist as you look down.

"You know," you start sadly, watching her stop with her hand on the doorknob, "if things keep happening the way they are, it'll come a time I won't be waiting for you when you get back."

"Well if that's the case, make sure to turn off the lights." She's holding her tears as she replies, but that doesn't make the answer hurt any less.

So, when she closes the door behind her, you allow your own tears to fall.
