'Well this is just fucking fantastic!' Nat thought to herself as she literally rolled out of her bed on Monday morning. Her routine had been completely thrown off, she didn't need, nor did she want, to avoid Wanda anymore. Ever since Friday night, Nat had found herself thinking about Wanda non-stop. The bubbly feeling that welled up in her stomach when they touched, the warmth that overtook her when she looked into those curious and deep-set, swirling colorful eyes, how she'd almost feel shaky and weak in the knees when Wanda came near, she loved every second of it, now she just had to figure out how on earth to pry out of herself and Wanda what that night meant.
With her mind flooded with scenarios of what to say when she saw Wanda that day she approached Clint on the bus. He gave her a wide smile as she sat down,
"Nat! You won't believe what Bucky did to get into Principal Fury's office for the fourth time already this year!" Clint chatted while Bucky smirked his ever so mysterious smirk,
"Oh no...." Nat laughed looking over to a way too pleased Bucky, He opened his mouth like he was going to explain but then the bus came to an abrupt stop and bounced up. Everything happened so fast Nat didn't have any time to react. She gasped and gripped her seat as she felt Clint tumble onto her lap and forward crashing into the ceiling. Screams of terror could be heard from the other students, cries of pain.
"Steve!" She heard Bucky shout as a loud thud made everyone hail even louder. Nat dropped onto the floor and skidded towards the front of the bus as gravity violently pushed her against people and seats.
"AAHHH!" Nat shrieked as a hand yanked her still, it was Sam.
"Grab onto me!" Sam hollard over the noise, Nat tried to move her free arm but it was too painful, she winced calling out in agony as she gripped Sam's hoodie sleeve tightly Sam grunted tryin his best to hold onto her but it was no use, Nat flailed forward continuing her deafening shrieks, another, stronger hand gripped her tightly as she fell,
"HOLD ON TO THE SEAT BESIDE YOU!" Wanda's voice rose through the noise as her strong arms held Nat against gravity almost with ease, Nat did as she said and grabbed the arm of a chair nearby launching herself up to rest on the sideways seat next to Wanda. She was breathing so fast she didn't even think about sighing from relife. The tumbling stopped and the screams calmed down a little. Chatter arose
"Are you okay?"
"Are you hurt?"
"Oh my god! What the fuck happened?"
"Shit! My leg!"
"Where is he?!" Nat recognized Sam's voice, "Steve?! Buck?!" He called frantically looking about the bus. Wanda placed he hand on Nat's waist then traveled up to her cheek in a frenzy,
"Oh god! Are you okay?" She looked panicked, tears stinging her eyes,
"I'm al- Ah!" Nat's body rejected that notion as a grinding pain ran through her body, "Shit!" She wheezed gritting her teeth.
"Nat?" Wanda's eyes grew more fearful as she examined Nat carefully looking for external injuries.
"M-my-my arm..." Nat said between gasps, "God it hurts..." She inhaled deeply as Wanda grazed the side of her face with her thumb,
"Hey, it's okay, it's okay, it's fine, we are going to be fine!" Wanda told herself more than Nat.
"Hey I know...I know." Nat meant her eyes and brought her good arm up to Wanda's cheek whipping away a stray tear. "You probably just saved my life, Wanda..."
"No. You would have been fine-"
"No." Nat brought her hand down to Wanda's neck contriving her to look her in the eyes, "You saved me..." She said softly, Wanda let on a gentle smile, but that smile quickly faded,
