Y/n Hybrid (fem) x Avengers

Chapter 16

Y/n

When Agent Romanoff had left, Tony took me to a spare room.

"Do you have anything you want us to collect from your apartment?" he asked as he let me into the room.

"Can me and Peter go?" I asked.

"As long as someone goes with you," Tony negotiated.

"I can protect us," I replied in a tight voice.

The truth was, I wanted some time alone with Peter. I wanna keep him with me. He's too hot. I didn't even get to tell him how much I wanted to kiss him.

Tony shrugged.

"Maybe, but I don't want Peter getting hurt if you get attacked and you're distracted fighting for your own life," he argued.

"I-" I stopped myself.

I wanted to tell Tony that I'd put Peter's life before mine, but I didn't want it to sound too sappy. I took a deep breath and said, "Fine. Who's going to go with us?"

"Steve could go with you."

"What, and make a big fuss if HYDRA attack us? It'll be all over the news Tony!" I replied, raising my voice.

"Well who else wouldn't make a big scene?" Tony demanded, getting defensive.

I looked him straight in the eyes. He began to shake his head, guessing who I was talking about.

"No, Y/n, no. If you want an agent, I'll get Barton or Hill, or dammit, even Fury himself!"

I shook my head slowly, not averting my eye contact.

"I want the red-head."

Tony continued to try and talk me out of it, but I kept rejecting anyone else he suggested. I knew the red-head had her reasons earlier. I had my doubts about trusting her, but so did I about everyone else here. Eventually, Tony gave up, agreeing and walking out.

Natasha

As I left the lounge after the embarrassing encounter with Wanda and Clint, I bumped into Tony.

"Hey Nat, hold on a minute!" Tony called after me as I continued to walk down the corridor.

"I need to sort something out!" I replied, not turning or stopping.

Instead, Tony caught up to me.

"Y/n?" he asked.

I stopped and looked at him.

"I need to find out why she reacted like that," I said. "And to apologise."

"Well Y/n said she wanted you to go with her and Peter back to her apartment," Tony told me.

I blinked, shocked that Y/n would want me of all people to go.

"I mean, I don't think she exactly likes you, I think it's because you'd make the least noise if you got attacked," Tony added.

I nodded, not saying anything.

"Where is she now?" I asked, surprised to find how quiet my voice was.

"The spare room next to Peter's."

I nodded and went towards it, my mind reeling. Why couldn't Y/n choose Maria or Clint if she wanted someone unlikely to cause a fuss? Why me? I threatened to kill her for fuck's sake! When I reached her room, I held my fist up to the door, about to knock.

"Come in," Y/n's voice said from inside before I'd even knocked.

I opened the door and went inside, standing awkwardly at the door - also incredibly confused. Y/n's eyes briefly glanced over at me and she laughed.

"I can see your confusion," she said.

"Y-yeah," I replied, leaning against the wall.

She came over to me, standing in front of me. She must've been around the same height as me, maybe an inch or so shorter, which wasn't surprising, considering she was only Peter's age. Y/n searched my face for any emotion. I looked back at her, marvelling at how well she hid her thoughts. After a few minutes of silence, I eventually asked, "Why me?"

Y/n shrugged, replying, "You're the best assassin the world knows."

"Okay, now tell me how you'd know that," I laughed, internally not sure that she was bluffing.

I was proven right when she tilted her head then said, "You were trained by the Red Room. Barton was sent to kill you, he made a different call. He saved you, recruited you to S.H.I.E.L.D. I mean, honestly, I'm not surprised you're so good."

She walked over to the window and stared outside. I blinked. True, I'd released HYDRA's secrets onto the internet when me and Steve were on the Winter Soldier mission. But I didn't expect her to know them.

"I'll just get a few things from my apartment," Y/n said, walking out.

I followed her as she went to Peter's room.

"Peter?" she called through the door.

As I stood a few feet away, I watched as the door opened and Peter hugged Y/n.

"Coming with me?" she asked.

"Where?" Peter replied.

"My apartment. Just to get a few things for my room."

"You're staying here?"

"Apparently. At least, just until HYDRA is gone. I need some more advanced tech to track them down, and I could do with finding out where all the other Hybrids are."

Y/n

Later, me, Agent Romanoff and Peter arrived at my apartment. I'd only spoken to Natasha if I'd needed to. To me, everyone in the compound was just a way of taking down HYDRA. Only Peter mattered. I led Peter into my apartment, Natasha just behind.

"Stay here," I told Natasha.

She nodded and waited for me as I took Peter into the bedroom, closing the door behind us. I felt my heart beat fast. Kiss him, kiss him! Peter seemed to know what I was thinking and put his hands on my waist gently. I stepped closer towards him and whispered in his ear, "Nobody knows about us?"

He chucked, replying, "I think they do. We kissed in the middle of that cell earlier, remember?"

I flushed. Ah shit. Forgot about that.

"They don't have to know about us right now though," I whispered back.

"As long as Natasha doesn't hear anything," Peter replied.

We kissed each other's lips again and Peter tugged my hair a little bit. I pulled back and bit my lip. For about five minutes, we fondly kissed each other. I'd never felt for anyone what I felt for Peter in my entire life.

"I'd protect you with my life, you know that, right?" Peter asked when we finally stopped kissing.

I slumped against the wall.

"I'd kill for you Peter Parker," I said. "And I said that I didn't want blood on my claws."

Peter smirked, opening his mouth to speak. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

"You two packed yet?" Natasha's voice asked.

"N-nearly!" I called, rushing to grab the essentials.
