Natasha's POV
---------------------------

I put all my anger into him not being able to see me. I just can't stand him right now. Maybe Pepper was right. Maybe this was all just an act. But what for? I run through doors, walls and floors to find Pepper. "What do you want?"

"Pepper, I'm so sorry. I really am. Even as a ghost I still need you." I was almost pleading, which was something I've never done nor never want to do ever again.

"Is that...begging I hear. Being dead must have changed you." She finally turned and looked at me. "You look awful. Well, for a ghost anyway."

"Now your starting to sound like that bitch Sharon." We shared a smile.

"Didn't you?" I stared at her confused. "She died. A bit surprised she didn't see you."

"I didn't realize I went to hell." Pepper laughed a bit. "I think you were right. Steve never really loved me. I lied saying I tried to stop him. He never even stood up for himself. Pepper, what if he really did mean it when he killed me? I love him but I don't think he cares. At all." I was now crying. A lot. I saw Pepper from the corner of my eye walk over and attempt to comfort me

"Pepper! I finished the suit you wanted!" Tony shouted as he walked into the room we were was currently in. He looked around and I put my head up. After a few moments he left shouting for Pepper again.

"Why couldn't he see me?" I shrugged cause I was just as confused as she was. "Maybe because I'm touching you. You didn't want Tony seeing you so while I was touching you, it caused some of your weird ghost things to go through me."

"Have you taken up drugs? Cause it sounds like it. We could always test it on Steve. I didn't want him to see me cause I was so freaking mad. We can go in there and see if he can see us." Pepper nods in agreement. Butterflies instantly fluttered in my stomach. Wether he could see me or not, I was still nervous.

"Could he still hear us?" She asked as we ran through his wall. He wasn't there. His window was open with rope dangling down.

"Shit! No!" I let go of Pepper and run straight to the window. His limos body being held by a bit of rope. I cover my mouth and burst into tears.

"This is how much I love you." I turn and see Steve as his ghostly form.

"You fucking jerk. Why would you do this?" I gesture to his now dead body.

"You thought I killed you out of free will and believed that I didn't love you when I did. A full confession note is attached to my body." He walks to me and picks my head up so our eyes are on each other. "I love you and don't ever think angles of that."

"I love you too." I cry through give him a passionate kiss which he returns. And I really do love him.

The end
