Nobody's POV

           "NO!!!"

The faint sound of screaming was heard from all corners and floors of the Tower.

The noise sounds like a girl being beaten to death, yet nobody was touching her.

The screaming was followed by loud bangs and thumps.

Natasha startles awake by the sudden noise, being broken out of her light sleep.

"DON'T LEAVE ME HERE!!!" The girl shrieks again followed by banging.

The red head jumps out of bed not even caring she's in only a sports bra and black sweatpants. She recognized that voice anywhere.

She dashes to the stairwell and runs downstairs, skipping a few platforms. The screaming gets louder and louder until she finally reaches Bruce's lab.

After flicking the lights on, she saw Y/N curled up in the corner, hugging her knees and pulling her hair while hyperventilating.

As much as Natasha wanted to run in there and comfort her she knows she can't. Knowing Y/N might attack her again, and this time possibly kill her.

But how? She looks so vulnerable like this, she can't possibly even think about killing?

By now Bruce, Tony, Pepper and Steve are all outside the lab as well, they open the door and see Y/N behind the glass cage.

Natasha was still so torn, but she quickly made up her mind knowing Y/N needed her.

She scanned her hand print and opened the door. Sitting on the floor with Y/N pulling the frightened girl into her arms. "It's okay...I'm here," she whispered.

"Don't leave me again!!" Y/N cries feeling lonely and abandoned by the only one she feels comforted by.

It felt as if someone came and ripped her heart out, and replaces it with guilt. "I'm sorry...." is all Natasha could whisper.

They sit there for 2 hours, in each others arms. As the time passed, Natasha ran her fingers through Y/N's hair, she felt her breathing softening as she finally started falling sleep.

Gently, she picked up her sleeping girlfriend and closed the door to the lab behind her.

"Nat," Steve calls out from behind the pair.

She shifts Y/N in her arms a bit to a more comfortable position. "Hey. What's up?" She replies, her voice carrying a hint of exhaustion.

Steve ended up explaining how a HYDRA base, and Strucker got a hold of Loki's scepter. They were actively tracking the location now but still are running into dead ends.

Y/N's POV

"Hey while I was stuck on the Quinjet I learned how to knit." I hold up a knitted shirt I made.

Tony snickers. "What was that made for? An animal?"

I start giggling. "Yeah exactly!! We should get a Puppy!" A LITTLE CUTE ADORABLE PUPPY WHO I'D LOVE FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER!!

My friends at school had dogs and cats, but of course I never did get one...I asked for one for my 11th birthday but...I mean I kinda left before I turned 11...

Natasha sits next to me and brushes a strand of my hair that was left out from my ponytail. "What's wrong sweetheart?" She asks softly, her lips brushing against my cheek as she notices my saddened expression.
