Yes Miss Romanoff

44

After dinner, Nat asked me if there was anything else I wanted to do. She said she still had one more surprise planned but wouldn't let on what it was, telling me I had to 'just wait till later to find out'.

I thought about it for a bit, and then remembered something, a place I'd wanted to take her since we met. A secret place.

Checking the time, I saw that the sunset was probably pretty soon, so I grabbed her hand and dragged her out onto my little balcony.

"The good thing about this apartment is that even though it's small, it has a beautiful garden!" I called to her over the noise of the New York traffic down below.

"Garden? I don't see any garden!" She said, confused.

"Follow me." I smiled and pulled out a hidden ladder I'd installed, from the side of my balcony.

"Please be careful!" She shouted as I began to climb. She followed shortly behind, seeming not at all concerned with her own safety, but obsessed with mine.

We climbed up onto the roof. My little 'garden' I'd made was separate from the rest of the roof, slightly lower. I don't think anyone else even knew it was there.

I'd spent a lot of time there during lockdown, growing, trimming, planting my plants to make a garden, much like the secret garden in that one book. Nat wandered around it in awe.

"Oh wow My Love, this is the most beautiful garden I've ever seen! Did you do all of this?"

"I did" she turned from the other end of the garden and ran towards me, jumping into my arms.

"How do you always make me fall even more in love with you with every little thing you do?" She whispered softly.

"I don't know. I guess I'm just incredibly lovable" I joked, not really knowing what to say.

"I love every single thing about you Evelyn. And even when you show me new things, like this, I love them even more!"

"And I love you more and more too Baby. The more I spend time with you, the less I want to be apart from you!"

She pulled away from me, her eyes lighting up as she turned me by my hips and pointed me towards sky.

"Look Princess! The sun is setting. When we were younger, I used to tell Yelena that it was going to sleep for the night, and that she should too, so that when she sees the sun in the morning, both of them would be shining bright again. Not that she ever stopped shinning, her smile has
always lit up the room."

"That's adorable. You're so cute!" I said, booping her nose with my finger. She scrunched it up sweetly, before turning to watch the beautiful sunset.

Instead of gazing at the sunset like she was, I just gazed at her. I'd seen the sunset from there thousands of times, but right now, I just wanted to take in how beautiful she really was.

The sun sparkled in her eyes and the bright colours of orange and pink lit up her face with a golden glow. She looked pure, like an Angel. My Angel.

I took out my camera and snapped a picture of her, never wanting to forget this moment. She smiled as she heard the camera click, reaching into her pocket and pulling out her phone. She put on some calming music and stood up, offering out her hand to me.

"Care to dance, My Love?"

"I'd love to My Angel"

She pulled me in close, swaying from side to side as we danced in the moonlight. The sun had set completely and the moon was now shining proudly upon us.

I wrapped my hands around her neck and she rested hers on my hips, holding me close as we danced. It was like a scene from a movie, the perfect moment.

After a while, it began to get cold, as all of the remaining warmth drifted away and the chilly evening air surrounded us.

We went back to my apartment to grab a blanket and some cushions.

We lay side by side on the grass, gazing up at the stary sky above us. We couldn't see loads, since we were in the city, but the North Star shone through the night, brighter than ever.

"You know you're kinda like that star." Nat said, pointing to it.

"Oh yeah? How so?"

"Well, you're always determined to be seen. You make sure that people listen to you and you attract attention when you want to. Not like me, I just blend in and never am brave enough to say what I think."

"What do you mean? You're the bravest girl I know! All those years when you fought constantly for what you believed was right. And looking after Yelena when the two of you had no one else. Even facing living alone these past few weeks when she moved out. You are brave Natasha. And I see you, I always see you." I tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear.

She looked at me, her eyes starting to gloss over with tears as she shuffled closer to kiss me passionately on the lips. When we pulled away, I ran my fingers across her smooth skin, wiping away her tears.

"I love you Evelyn. More than I could ever say." She said, her hand linking in mine, intertwining our fingers together.

"Well I love you more."

"Nope. Not possible. I love you, 100%" she said, smirking slightly. She thought she'd won!

"Well I love you 1000%" she smirked even harder, I knew exactly where this was going.

"I love you 3000!" She said triumphantly. I giggled, reaching my hands around and pulling her body into mine.

She looked up at me, into my eyes and then down to my lips, right in front of her eyes.

I placed the lightest of kisses onto her eyelids, she laughed sweetly as I continued to kiss every part of her face, showing her I loved every inch of her.

Across her forehead, along her eyebrows, down her nose. When I got near her lips, she tried to press them against mine but I moved quickly onto her jawline, peppering kisses all along it. Teasing her until she was whimpering, desperate to feel my lips against hers again.

Finally, I took her lips between mine, they moulded together perfectly, like two pieces of a puzzle, meant to be. She took my bottom lip between hers and sucked on it lightly.

As time went on, the kisses became sloppier and more needy. She pushed her tongue into my mouth, exploring her territory, even though she already knew it so well. I wrapped my lips around her tongue, sucking on it lightly and flicking her piercing with my tongue every now and then.

We both moaned softly into one another's mouths, our lips moving in perfect sync, our tongues dancing to the same rhythm.

I  could feel myself getting more aroused as she pressed her knee against my crotch, applying the lightest amounts of pressure. I groaned, pulling her on top of me, desperately needing her.

"Hey. What'd ya say we move this to you're bedroom, huh? I told you I had a surprise planned?" She said, getting off of me and dragging me back into my apartment, bringing all of the blankets and pillows down too.
