Letters for Love

A/N: A little sad kinda one-shot I wrote, just because. Don't judge the horrible and rushed looking writing, I wrote this so late last night 😂😭💜 hope you all enjoy it tho ! ♡ Ps I also have music to go along with this one-shot (It's a Thousand Years Pt. 2 by Christina Perri) it's for when Nat and Steve have a little dance ♡

----------

Natasha never really knew why Steve had kept isolating himself away from others, especially her. Ever since the interference with Thanos and the so called 'Guardians of the Galaxy' Steve had managed to steer himself away from the people he called 'family'.

Realization had hit her pretty hard after the Captain came back from a shaky mission. She knew Steve wasn't avoiding her because of nothing, but, he was avoiding her to protect her.

She was speechless. Not a single word had escaped her mouth in a span of two weeks straight. She could remember the last time Steve and her had the most magical time. Frankly, she didn't know it would've been the last.

"Dance with me, Rogers." Natasha's husky voice whispered inside of his ear.

They were in the training room and they had finished an hour or so of sparring. After a really meaningful conversation of how much he missed Peggy, Natasha insisted to give him the dance he had deserved a long time ago.

"Nat, I can't dance-"

Natasha chuckled, "Yes you can. Trust me." She grabbed his big, soft hands that were tiny compared to hers. Pulling him up, Natasha taught him to get into a dance position.

"Just put your hand there and yeah! You got it!" Natasha flashed a grin toward the Captain, who looked quite worried.

"Nat, what if I step on your-"

"You won't, I promise you, you won't." She reassured him, making him feel more comfortable.

"Friday, give me something slow." Nat told the AI. "Yes, Ma'am."

The Soldier and the Spy had swayed along to the soft sound of the music, Steve trying with effort to not stand on Natasha's feet.

The day we met,
Frozen I held my breath
Right from the start
I knew that I'd found a home for my heart...
... beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

Natasha looked Steve right in his blue orbs. They twinkled bright like the night sky. And somehow, that brought her comfort.

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Natasha had pulled the Captain closer toward her. Steve winced and Natasha lightly chuckled as they continued on.

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

Steve managed to get the hang of the rhythm of the music as well as his moves. Both Natasha and him were dancing in sync, like two persons in one.

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
