"Steve, I need to talk to you." She softly spoke to him. He looked back at her worriedly.
"Nat?" He walked over to her.

"Steve, this has never happened to me this badly but, I'm scared. I mean, what if we can't get the stones. I know out there I might seem confident and ready but I'm not. What if something goes wrong. Steve, I need this to work. We have a shot and if this doesn't work then... I don't know what I'm going to do. Steve, what if..." she paused taking a shaky deep breath.
"What if I loose you." She barely whispered out the last sentence, scared of what the response could be.

"Nat... I understand. Believe me, I'm scared too. I can't have this attempt go wrong. It's our only hope. Nat... there's one thing that can make this work. We are a team, we all believe in each other more than ourselves. We would put down our lives for each other. We would have each other back no matter what... even if we get into a fight... Nat, Thanos might be strong but we have each other, a family. Thanos can't tear apart us from each other. We are one soul. We can do it. Whatever it takes."

She looked into his eyes and smiled warmly.
"Why do you always know what to say..." she hugged him smiling into his chest. He kissed her head.

"Hey Nat no matter what happens I want you to know that I-" He was cut off by Scott opening the door.

"Oh shoot... Rhodey was right..." He said mouth open. Steve and Natasha looked at each other confused.
"A-Any whooo... I uh..." he took a deep breath.
"Okay, Tony and Bruce need ya for suit fittings or something.. along those lines..." He awkwardly stared at them and stumbled out of the room.

Steve and Natasha looked at each other, still extremely confused. Natasha shrugged and they walked out of the room.

"See you in a minute." Natasha looked over her shoulder smirking at Steve. He looked back at her with his loving smile that would make any girl blush like a tomato. But Natasha isn't any girl. He quickly kissed he cheek without anyone else noticing them.

They all prepared for their launch.

ZOOM!
They all went into their own groups.

Whatever it takes. His words rung in my head. I need to save everyone. It's what's best. This is it. I have to do this. It's the only way. 'We would put our lives down for each other.' I quickly pull out the necklace he gave me a while ago. I smile at it and squeeze it tightly.

"Let me go..." I breathed out.
"N-No! No, Nat, please No." Clint begged trying to reach for my hand.
I looked back up at him and smiled.
"It's okay..." I choked out. I need to clear my red in my ledger.
"No please no.." I pushed off.
"NOOO!" I heard him cry out in agony. He desperately tried to get my hand.

I went down quickly. This needed to happen. I know they can do this. I was fully confident in them. In Steve... STEVE!
STEVE I L—-
