I jolt awake, my eyes glancing around the white room with a groan before I felt hands on my chest. "Who's touching my tits?" I questioned confused, blinking away the sleepiness.

I see multiple doctors looking down at me with wide eyes, mouths gape open. "If your gonna look at me like that then what does a girl have to do to get a red sucker around here?" I exclaimed, my eyes glancing towards the doctors who where trying to apparently save me.

"Miss you've been in a coma for a few days and you were flat lined. How are you alive?" A male doctor muttered mostly to himself than to me.

"That is a amazing question" I said nodding my head. "I would like to know that myself everyday" I sighed as I hear a chuckle from the door.

I glance towards it to see Natasha leaning against the door frame, her feet and arms crossed with a raised eyebrow. "Tormenting the doctors, Sev?" She smiled.

I gasp with a hand on my chest, "I would do no such thing" I shook my head. "Very shameful of you to think that" I tutted with a wide grin as the three doctors glance back and forth between us before slowly slipping out of the room. "Y'all better be getting me some red suckers!" I yelled after them.

"Your a menace" Nat chuckled, crossing the room to sit down beside me.

I only shrugged, not denying the comment before giving her a sigh, looking around the white room. "When will I stop waking up in hospital beds?" I grumbled, looking back over at Natasha who seated herself in the comfy bedside chair.

"When you stop being reckless" Natasha exclaimed pointedly, giving me a raised brow.

"So, never then, great" I chirped before frowning, "wait getting shot wasn't my fault, that whack job Ultron started blazing"

"Yes that but you risked your life when someone was already dead.." She proclaimed as my mind flashed to Pietro dying. "I know you felt protected over him and his sister, but you shouldn't risk your life like that. You don't know what could've happened, I- I could've lost you again" Natasha sighed, I noticed her lip rolled in between her teeth as she nibbles her lip.

"I'm sorry" I apologised sincerely, feeling bad that I caused her so much worry.

I slowly sit up, Natasha handing me a glass of water as I took it gratefully, letting the room temperature burn the dryness of my mouth. When I get comfortable again, I turn to her. "H-how is Pietro? Is he alive I mean?" I asked scared that I didn't save him like I promised.

Natasha looks me in the eye with a soften expression. "He woken yesterday morning, perfectly fine. He would be off his feet for a bit but he'll live, I guess." She ensures me as I let out a breath of air that I didn't know I was holding in.

I saved him.

I actually saved someone for once, I feel sort of relieved. That I used my powers for good and not feeling like that everything that I could touch can burn from electrocution.

"That's good" I only said, staring off at the bare wall across from me.

"He's came to visit you right away, you were the first thing in his mind when he woke up. He wanted to know if you were alright, he never left your side even when Loki was glaring daggers at him last night for hogging you all day" She explained, shaking her head.

"Loki was here?" I asked, Natasha hummed as she give me a knowing look as I looked down with a small blush. "I- I don't like him"

"I know" She murmurs, not commenting on it any further.
