Some people are meant to FALL in love with each other but aren't meant to BE with each other....
"I'm coming... I need you to stay on the coms... I need you to.. just.. just stay alive."
I hear nat beg of me.
I glance down at the broken controls a...
Steve and Natasha (POV) It's final. It's not my decision to make. In fact I can't do anything but sit and watch her go. Scratch that, I haven't even been given that honor. Natasha and I decided it would be better if we didn't say goodbye. And if I didn't see her on the day she left. All I know is that she is leaving at 7:00. It hurts. Worse than any pain I've ever known. It's worse than being tortured. Losing her. I told myself form the beginning that I wouldn't loose her, and now look where I am. I'm being selfish but I don't really care. But then a word pops into my head. "Closure." In a way this is what this mission is for Natasha. Closure. Knowing she might end the people responsible for her past. Still, I don't understand how she can drop everything and go. I can't help it. I'm mad. But all my madness goes away when I realize that Natasha didn't want me to see her today because if she does she might just stay. And I know it's selfish. And honestly I do feel bad about it but I have to take that chance. She is all I have left. I can't loose her too. If she died... I... I don't know what I would do. All odds are against her if she goes. She is a major target. It terrifies me. I can't help but think the worst. I can't help but think that I may never see her again. And I also can't help but go see her. "One more time" I tell myself. One more time to stare into her pure emerald eyes. One more time to kiss those lips that always taste like strawberries. One more time to get my hands tangled in her fiery red hair. And one more time to hold her in my arms.
Natasha: "It's final I'm going." That's what I told Steve. That's what I keep telling myself over and over again. I thought I was sure about this. But every-time I think about stepping on the plane my stomach spins. I'll be alone. It's not new to me, loneliness. It's just like before. But then I think back to before and I remember how horrible it was. I remember how I always wanted to have a friend. To have someone there for me. Someone to care about me. And someone to love me. Well the impossible has happened because I do have those things. I might not deserve them but I still have them. I've waited my whole life to have to have them. And now that I do, why on the 9 realms would I throw them away? I'm being selfish aren't I? There are people out there who need help and all I want to do is crawl back into bed with Steve. But when I think of him I don't really care if I'm being selfish. I'm not saying I won't go. I will, probably. A chauffeur is picking me up at 7:00. But maybe, just maybe, if Steve shows up and tells me to stay, maybe I will do just that.
Steve: It's 6:50. I can still make it if I leave right now. Maybe it's wrong. Maybe I should let her go. But when I think about her it feels so right. So I quickly put on my shoes and start running.
Natasha: It's 6:50. He's not coming I think. He is letting me go. Just like I told him too. That's not like him though. "Are you ready to go miss Romanoff?" The chauffeur asks, opening my door. "Yes but I'm not ready to leave." I mumble as I start entering the car.
6:55. It's now or never. The chauffeur starts closing my my door. When it's just a centimeter away I think I hear something. "Wait!" I call out and stick my hand between the door.
Steve: I run as fast as I can. Harder than I ever have before. I have to make it. I have to see her. I'm relieved when the slick black car comes into few and I think I can see a delicate hand stopping the door from closing. "Wait!" I can't help but call out.
Natasha: I'm certain that I heard someone running towards me. "Is everything alright ma'am?" The chauffeur politely asks. "No this is wrong." I say as I push the door open. To my relief, When I look the my far right I can see a super soldier sprinting to me. I smile to myself. I've made my decision. But I might just tease him a little. He finally reaches me and we both embrace, clinging to each other. I torture him and make tears fill my eyes. "I'm going to miss you Steve. ... Are you going to be okay?" I say pulling back and looking at him. "I don't know." He says honestly. "The avengers are the only family I've got. And it will never be complete without you in it." He finishes as tears fill his eyes. "So... you want me to stay?" I say and I can't help but smile. "You think I'm going to let you go like that? Stay with me Nat." He says as he silently begs me. I'm too relieved to say anything so he goes on "Let's start a new life together." I'm still speechless so I do the only thing that makes sense. I throw my arms around his neck and pull his lips to mine.

We break away only when we can't breathe anymore. But we stay close enough to each other, that our breath mingles. I put my hand on his cheeks and look into his eyes. "I was hoping you would say that."
***** Sorry for the cheesiness but did you really think I would send Natasha away?! Yeah no way. I hope you liked this chapter. Leave reviews!*****
