Weakness | Natasha Romanoff

"its just a fun little accessory."

Olivia PoV:
I woke up by myself which never happens, at least not recently. I checked the time and it was 1:28pm. I heard voices downstairs so I went to check who it was.

"That's her 17th birthday. I got her a teddy bear and she cried." I heard Nick say in the living room. It was followed by Natasha's laugh which made me smile.

"I think I know what teddy you're talking about. It's brown with a blue bow tie, right?" Natasha chuckled as Birdy came downstairs.

"Yep. She still has it?" Nick asked in disbelief making me lightly chuckle.

"Yeah. It's like a prized possession. She keeps it in her bedside table." Natasha explained as I picked Birdy up.

"Oh and on her 18th birthday my friend brought her a top that said 'I know you like hot women' and she completely denied the entire thing until she was 20. Oh and when her dad was cutting cake this humongous beetle started crawling up her leg and she freaked out. I got both moments on video, I have to show you." He shared with Nat. I remember the exact moment he was on about.

"Oh my god! Auntie Carol you're here!" I screamed as the blonde walked through the door with a gift bag in her hand.

I ran up to her and hugged her, almost knocking her over with the force. She pulled away with the biggest smile on her face. "Of course I am, I wouldn't miss my favourite persons birthday for the world."

"Well you're just in time because we're about to cut cake." I explained as I pulled her into the garden.

"Thank god, I'm starving. Saving the universe makes you hungry." She sighed after her stomach grumbled.

"I'm not surprised." I chuckled before my dad walked over with a cake in his hands. Uncle Nick was behind him, filming the entire thing and Goose was trying to hit a butterfly further into the garden.

"Happy birthday too you. Happy birthday too you. Happy birthday too Olivia. Happy birthday to you." Dad sung making me laugh at all his voice cracks. "Ok, blow out the candles and make a wish."

I took a deep breath in before using all my power to blow all eighteen candles out. Carol cheered along with Uncle Nick and Dad. I laughed as Carol pulled me in for a hug.

"Let me go get a knife." Dad said but I shook my head.

"Wait, I've already got one." I assured him as I pulled one out the back pocket of my jeans.

"Why do you have that?" He asked and I shrugged as I started twiddling it with my fingers.

"Safety. The world is a very dangerous place for a young woman, especially me." I reminded him and he sighed knowing I was right.

"Ok, fine. Just give me the knife so I can cut the cake." He told me and I smiled, handing the knife over to him.

"I don't think you would need a knife to defend yourself." Carol chuckled to her self making me smile.

"Oh trust me I know I don't it's just a fun little accessory to intimidate anyone who fucks with me." I explained making her and Uncle Nick laugh.

Uncle Nick got glared at by Dad making all of us stop laughing. "Can we get Thai for dinner tonight?" I asked making Dad laugh.
