Moscow, Russia

An abandoned factory on the outskirts of Russia lay dormant, empty, Silent.

WHACK!

"Ergh! Right in the face? Really? That's gonna leave a mark!" Claimed Agent Natasha Romanoff, now with a visible redness showing on her face.
"Sorry but business is business and when you work for a man like I Do, you'll understand why I have to hurt such a pretty face," A group of Russian agents for HYDRA stood in front of her, looking her up and down as she sat strapped in a chair wearing a black dress. The Redhead stated at the leader of the small group, trying to find some evidence to give back to her superior.
"You dont think I know who you are? The famous Black Widow." The leader said with his Russian accent.
"Well done Shithead! You know who I am! That's why I'm going to leave you hanging by your ankles wishing for someone to find you!" Romanoff remarked with a smug grin.
"How are you going to do that then?" He looked at her edging closer and closer but she stared right at him, making him uncomfortable. At that point, the leaders Phone Rang.

*Through the Phone*
"Listen here, you should not call-"
"Put the woman on the Phone."
"Why would I do that?"
"Because if you dont, a missile will blow you all to shreds before you can get away"
"Fine, here she is"
The leader handed Natasha his phone.
"Nat, you free"
"Oh hey Barton! Not really, I'm kind of in the middle of a mission"
"We need you back at SHIELD"
"Okay give me a second"
Romanoff asks one of the Russians to take the phone and when he comes over, she lifts her knee and hits him where it hurts. The phone drops and the Russians run over to try and contain Romanoff but she knocks them all out and hangs the leader up with a chain by his ankles. Now broken free, Natasha picks up her high heels and the phone.

*Through the phone*
"So what do you want me to do?"
"Fury gave his orders for you and I dont think your going to like it"
"So... What is it?"

Brooklyn, NYC, USA

It was midnight in the gym and Steve Rogers is punching a punching bag while having flashbacks to his life before going into the ice. He punches the bag too hard and the chain that the bag is being held up with, snaps.

Romanoff appears from the corner.

*The Story is now in Romanoff's point of view*

Okay, okay, keep calm Natasha. Keep Calm. I heard a crash and I moved around from the corner i was hiding in. And there he stood but he didnt notice me. That is a man right there. Focus Natasha.

I worked up the courage to say something to him. "Sleeping is so overrated nowadays."

He looked up and we locked eyes. His disheveled hair dangling over his sweaty forehead made him look like a hot mess. Hot indeed. We looked into eachothers eyes for what seemed like forever. I looked away to break the tension between us.

"Why do you care if I sleep or not?" His voice echoed around my head. This guy had this really reassuring feeling about it. I could listen to that voice for days.

"I really dont care if you do or not. I'm here to recruit you" Keep cool Natasha, Keep Cool.
"Who are you then?"
"Natasha Romanoff. Your Steve Rogers. SHIELD needs your help to find the Tesseract"
"I'm in."
"Really? I mean, we want you to work with is but you said that so quick! I mean-" He interrupted me and walked over to me. We locked eyes again, accept this time he spoke. "Calm Natasha, I know that SHIELD can be trusted. And from this little conversation, you can too" He smiled at me and I felt light headed, he is so perfect. Focus Natasha. Focus on your mission. I looked away to stop the tension between us because I know I can never be good enough for someone like him. I don't want him to put up with my nightmares because I know he will walk away and I'll be left broken hearted.

Anyway, I have Bruce to rely on!
