"I never thought I'd see the day where you'd listen to Fury", Natasha said as she walked into Y/Ns office.

"Yeah, well I've decided I'm not in the mood to argue"  Y/N replied, while still looking at the computer.

Nat said opposite her.

"How you doing?", Nat asked.

"Fine.", Y/N replied.

Nat sighed, "come on, you know you can talk to me right?"

Y/N continued typing away.

"Well, if you don't want to talk to me, I guess I can't tell you about your surprise.", Nat teased.

Y/N stopped typing, she looked at Nat and raised an eyebrow.

"I knew that would work", Nat laughed.

"What surprise?", Y/N asked.

"Yelena is almost done with bringing the old Widows back to themselves, and then she's heading here.", Nat replied.

Y/N scoffed slightly, "she hates me"

Nat screwed her eyebrows together, "she does not"

"Does she know I'm here?", Y/N asked.

"Well, no-", Nat replied.

"See, if she did. She wouldn't be coming", Y/N replied.

"Why would she hate you?", Nat asked.

Y/N sighed, "I almost killed her..."

"What?!?", Nat replied shocked.

"It was when I was in hydra, our paths crossed. I'm presuming dreykov was looking for me. The fight didn't go down well, for some reason, despite her clinging to life, he kept her alive and his team  nursed her back to health.", she looked down, "I think from then on, dreykov gave up looking for me, as I was too far gone"

Nat looked her, "you know you had no control over that"

Y/N looked up and shrugged, "I know. Just the idea of almost killing my younger sister still haunts me."

"I'm sure she understand", Nat replied.

"Maybe, but Yelena is as stubborn as us.", Y/N chuckled slightly.

"She might be a bit worse actually", Nat teased.

Y/N laughed, "true".

"I haven't seen you smile for a while", Nat changed the subject.

"What do I have to smile about, Nat?", Y/N replied. "It's been 2 months, and I can't seem to get over it."

"You're not going to get over it Y/N, this was a major thing", Nat replied.

"I don't know what's worse, the killing and controlling or losing my baby", Y/N replied looking down.

Nat stood up and walked around the desk, sitting on it next to Y/N.

"I won't ever understand how you're feeling, but.", She paused for a moment. "You have so much love and support around you, even if you don't think so. You do, and I can honestly say. You need that right now"

Y/N looked at her with slight tears in her eyes, "thanks Nat"

"Besides, Barnes is back. Get your mind distracted.", Nat laughed.

"No.", She replied.

Nat screwed her eyebrows together, "come on, he was just trying to protect you"

"How? We was finally on amazing terms and he just ups and leaves", Y/N replied.

"You were already having complications, Y/N, he didn't wanna stress you out anymore."

"Well it stressed me out, thinking I scared him away", Y/N replied.

Nat sighed, "just talk to him"

Y/N stood up and looked out the window behind her.

"I have to talk to him at some point anyway, but only in work circumstances. I'm over him", Y/N said.

"You don't mean that", Nat replied.

"I do..."

"So, we'll catch you up on our end. Not much has happened here, as Fury has left you to do the hard parts.", Pietro began.

"As you've noticed more warehouses keep popping up, luckily none of the old ones have been used as we've been monitoring those ones", Wanda added.

"It appears Mr Jenkins is a ghost", Pietro said.

"Not entirely", Bucky replied. "I do seem him, on an occasion."

"Where is he?", Wanda asked.

"Hard to say, he moves constantly. I meet up with him once a month, and I won't know until the day before"  Bucky replied.

"When do you see him again?", Wanda asked.

"Friday", He replied.

"Perfect, we could set you up with some gear and listen in",  Wanda suggested.

Bucky shook his head, "might not be the wisest idea, he checks me before I enter the room"

"Then what?", Pietro asks out of defeat.

"Hank Pymm has specialised in a suit that shrinks you down to a size of an ant, it goes undetected. He works with Scott, Scott can hide in Barnes jacket, and listen in, report back to us", a voice came from behind them.

They turned and saw Y/N, she leant against the door frame with her arms crossed.

Bucky stares at her.

"Good idea, Y/N.", Wanda replies.

Pietro groans, "not Scott, he's so annoying"

"Suck it up, Buttercup. We need the suit, we have to have Scott", Y/N replied.

Pietro rolls his eyes.

"What do you think Bucky?", Wanda asks, pulling him back to the conversation.

Bucky jolts slightly, "yeah, Scott should be fine"

"Excellent, I'll go talk to Hank", Y/N said as she turned and left the room.

Bucky watches her as she leaves the room.

"You good, Buddy?", Pietro asked Bucky.

"Uh, yeah. I'm fine", he said, not sounding convincing.

"Give her time, I know deep down she missed you", Wanda reassured him, lightly tapping his arm.

"I hope you're right", Bucky replied.
