Prompt: "You weren't supposed to hear that."
~
After training you wanted to get a refreshing drink in the kitchen, but when you heard Wanda and Natasha in deep conversation you didn't want to interrupt. You were in the process of turning around when you heard your own name drop. Wanting to know what they are saying about you, you decide to listen to their conversation from around the corner.
"Come on Nat, what could go wrong if you just tell her." Wanda asks. "I didn't ask for your advice Maximoff, can we just drop it?" Natasha clearly sounded agitated about whatever it was she didn't want to tell you.
"I know you didn't ask for me to interfere. But Nat, your thoughts are so loud, I can't ignore them and as your friend I want to be there for you. Because quite frankly it sounds like your head might actually explode with the amount of thoughts swarming around there. You need to get it out. And if you're so set of not telling her, talk to me about it. I swear that whatever you say will stay between us." Wanda tried to get Natasha to open up.
You were listening closely, you felt like maybe you shouldn't be listening to their conversation, but you were frozen in place. You were too locked on the fact that Natasha has such big feelings about something thar involved you.
"What do you want me to say Maximoff, that I'm so incredibly in love with her that even when we're in a room full of people at a Stark party, she's the only one there for me. The whole world around us disappears because she's the only one I want to spend my time with. That everything I come across reminds me of her. And how I so badly want her to feel the same, but I know that she never will. I would rather have her in my life as a friend than share the way I feel and not have her in my life anymore."
You were so hooked on Natasha's words that you didn't hear Pietro walk up behind you, "Y/n, you know it's rude to spy on people." He announced loud enough for Wanda and Natasha to hear. He then playfully pushed you around the corner. Nat's eyes widen, "You weren't supposed to hear that." it all she says before she runs off.
"Really Piet?" You scoff. Of course, he didn't know what was going on in the kitchen, but you knew Natasha was in a vulnerable state while talking to Wanda. You turn around and run after Natasha.
You heard her bedroom door slam closed. When you reach it you knock on in gently, "Nat, can I come in?" You wait for a response, but she stays quiet. You scoot down on the wall and say, "It's okay if you need some time, I'll be waiting right here outside your door."
When she realized you cared and weren't going to leave she opened the door slightly. You took the opportunity to open the door further and walk into her room.
"How much did you hear?" You sit down on the edge of her bed. "I heard all of it. I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to intrude. I just heard my name and wanted to know what was being said behind my back."
Natasha covers her head in her hands and lets out a deep sigh. "Hey Nat, it's okay." You place one of your hands on her knee. She slowly moves her eyes from your hand to your face. Noticing a soft smile on your face, she furrows her eyebrow in confusion.
"So, you do still want to be in my life even after hearing all that?" Natasha questions. "Yes, I do. Of course, I want to be in your life, Nat. Earlier you said I would never feel the same, but that couldn't be further from the truth. I love you so much Natasha, I have loved you for years."
You look at each other for a moment, both processing all the feelings that are now out in the open. Until Natasha breaks the silence. "Can I kiss you?"
The smile on your face grows as you tell her she can. Natasha caresses your cheek before holding both your cheeks in her hands and pulling you in for a kiss both of you have been craving for so long.
After the kiss you fall into each other's arms, just laying in a comfortable bliss now that you know that the other feels the same way. You must've laid in Natasha's bed for around 30 minutes when someone knocks on the door. "Come in." Natasha says, while you still lay comfortably in her arms.
Wanda pushes Pietro inside the room, before realizing that you were in the room with her. "We came here to apologize, but I see it worked out just fine." Wanda says with a giggling Pietro next to her. The two leave the room again after some quick apologies.
Natasha places a kiss on your forehead. "Want to watch a movie, detka?" You blush at the Russian nickname. "Yeah, I'd love to." You stayed in Natasha's arms for the duration of the movie and ended up falling asleep in them as well. You felt safe and at home in her arms, like you were meant to be held by her. And with her confession the two of you would make that dream of being with her a reality.
