Natasha Romanoff One Shots

Just come here

Prompt: "You look like you need a hug."

Warnings: short mention of past (forced) breakup

~

You were patiently waiting in your truck for Natasha to show up. Your truck parked next to one of the mobile safe houses in Norway. Natasha had called you to arrange a place far away from the people that were looking for her. It wasn't long before you heard a car heading your way on the gravel road.

"Hey Nat." You say as you get out of your car. She gives you a short greeting back and opens her trunk to get her stuff. You step forward to give her a hand with her bags. "You really don't have to do that, you know. You're a private contractor, not my assistant." You grab a couple bags anyways, "I know." Opening the door to the trailer you show Natasha inside. Natasha drops her bags on the floor and sighs.

"You look like you need a hug." You say as you notice the tiredness in her eyes. "Again, not your job y/n. Plus I think we're kind of past the hugging state, don't you think?" Natasha is quick to hide the flash of sadness crossing her face, but it didn't go unnoticed to you.

"Just come here." You say opening your arms. Natasha thinks for a second before she steps forward into your arms. You wrap your arms around her. With your past you thought Natasha would make it a short hug, but when you realised she wasn't going to let go soon, you held her tighter. Rubbing her back when you hear her sob softly. "Whatever it is, it's going to be okay."

Once she has calmed down a little she let's go and sits on the edge of the bed. "I don't know if it's going to be okay this time, y/n. The Avengers broke-up, half of the team is in jail and the other half is on the run."

Taking a seat next to Natasha on the bed, you tell her "You're Natasha Romanoff, you're going to find a way to get everyone out of jail and safe. I don't doubt that one bit." She smiles, "You really think so?" You nod, "Most definitely."

You sit in a comfortable silence for a but until Natasha breaks it by saying, "Is there anyway you can stay for the night?" A hopeful look on her face. "You know that's not really part of the job, right?" You nudge her shoulder with a smile on your face. "I can stay."

Conversation flows from your work, to what happened with the Avengers and eventually the topic of your breakup comes up. It wasn't really either one of your decisions, you were forced by S.H.I.E.L.D. directors. You both look down thinking back of what happened. This time you are the first one to speak up, "I never stopped loving you Natasha. And I know we can't just go back to where we left off, but I would start it all over if that meant I could come home to your arms again." You nervously eye Natasha, waiting for her response. You had no clue if she felt the same way after all these years.

"I never stopped loving you either, y/n." She says taking a hold of your hand, both of your eyes filled with tears as you once again fall into each other's arms.
