Endgame Romanogers Fanfic

Chapter 6

By the morning, Steve took a deep breath and then immediately sighed, he opened his eyes a little and closed it again, taking another deep breath once more, fighting his sleep, which made him remain with his eyes closed.

Steve yawned lazily and opened his eyes at once, realizing he had slept, he didn't know and didn't remember falling sleep. For him, he just blinked his eyes while watching Natasha sleeping, so he got scared and opened his eyes abruptly, trying to locate himself.

Steve watched the sun's rays hitting the bed in beams, as they were managing to penetrate the room through the window openings, which meant it was daylight, dawn and it looked like it was just five minutes ago that he was watching Natasha sleeping, and that sensation made it looks like he was dreaming about her face all night long, because the image of her sleeping in his head was very fresh.

When he opened his eyes once more and was temporarily blinded by daylight, Steve sat down and rubbed his eyes to see normally again, he yawned again, trying to chase away the laziness that dominated him.

Steve already knew that he was alone in bed, he knows that he woke up alone there because he couldn't feel Natasha's body heat anymore beside him, but still, he looked at the bed, on the side where she was sleeping to confirm and just saw that the sheet was wrinkled, as well as the pillow.

Natasha: Good morning, soldier.

Natasha said near the bathroom door and she was already fully dressed and putting her things back in her bag.

Steve: I'm not a soldier anymore, but... good morning.

Natasha closed the bag and looked at Steve.

Natasha: You should enjoy it now and take a shower, I left the hot water for you.

Natasha held the bag and Steve looked directly at her bag, raising his eyebrows shortly thereafter.

Steve: Wait... are you... are you leaving? Already?

Natasha: Yes.

Natasha replied directly and frankly, without bluntness or justifications.

Steve opened his mouth a little and looked very surprised. Natasha noticed, but did not comment on that either, as she saw that he himself did not question about it.

Steve: So... I Guess I will see you in about...

Steve said, waiting for Natasha to let he know when they would see each other again and he hoped it would be soon, but deeply he knows it won't be.

Natasha made negative with her head and shrugged.

Natasha: I don't know, we... are on vacation from one another... right? You said that everyone could take time for themselves, so...

Steve nodded and his look contained confusion and maybe disappointment, because she decided to walk away too and just like that, but okay, Steve thought, it was her right, he really freed everyone to go and do whatever they liked as long as they stayed safe and without getting into trouble.

Now Steve realizes that he got used to having Natasha by his side all the time, without realizing it.

Steve: So I'll see you in...

Steve said once again and didnt complete, waiting for Natasha to say, which made her laugh softly for him to try again, only in another way.

Natasha: Some days... I hope.

Natasha nodded and went to the door.

Steve: Maybe I won't be here anymore.

Steve declared.
