"Rogers, we have a mission," Natasha says, walking past Steve in the common room and tossing him a case file.
Steve opens the file. It wasn't a difficult mission, all he had to do was get intel from someone connected to the recent case S.H.I.E.L.D. was investigating. Natasha was in charge if the case and she too, was coming along. They were to pose as a couple. It wouldn't be a hard thing if no feelings were involved. Natasha often drew the line just before feelings. She wasn't one to toy with feelings or show emotions but what she felt about Steve was clearly more than just a simple friendship. There was something about him that was just so different. Unlike other men, he didn't ogle at her or use her as a play thing. He respected her, treated her as an equal, or sometimes, someone even more powerful that himself. He clearly felt something for Natasha too, but definitely made it more obvious than she did. Natasha saw the signs, and would occasionally tease him about it.
"Why is Fury ALWAYS getting us to pose as a couple? This is literally the third time he's done that this month alone!" Steve says, standing up and passing Natasha her file.
Natasha looks at Steve with a teasing smile and gently snatches her file back in a playful manner. "Meet me in the garage in 10 minutes, soldier." And with a small peck on his cheek in a twinkle in her eyes, she turns and is gone.
10 minutes later, Steve arrives at the garage to find Natasha running her fingers down her car, the same one she had picked him up in, on multiple occasions. She catches his eye and smiles. He's dressed very formally, in a suit, with a blazer, shirt and formal pants. In his hand he holds an untied tie. Natasha smiles knowingly and takes the tie from his hand. She ties it, tugging slightly before tipping on her toes to kiss him, this time on the lips. Steve flushes a shade of red, nearly the same colour as Natasha's hair. "Just getting into the role soldier." Natasha replies with a knowing smirk. With that, she flicks her curled red hair over her shoulder and walks towards Steve's Harley. Raising her eyebrows at him, she tosses him the key.
"How are you going to-" Steve begins, referring to the fact that Natasha was in heels with a simple black dress that had a slit on one side showing one leg but covering the other, just enough so Natasha could hide a holster with her equipment in it, should there be a need to use lethal force. Steve smiles as Natasha climbs onto the Harley with skill and with style and turns the engine on. "You might wanna hold tight," He whispers as the bike starts.
"Oh, don't worry. I will." Natasha says as the bike speeds out of the compound.
Shortly after, they arrive at location, a large house just off the coast of Los Angeles. Now, if you thought they were in New York, you were wrong. Remember the Auerbach Theatrical Agency that was actually the Los Angeles branch of the SSR back in the 1940s? Fury had made it into a S.H.I.E.L.D. base, complete with facilities and all. And not to mention the 180 acres of land they had at Stark Pictures, proudly sponsored by the Starks of course. That area had become a training facility as well as a storage for all the weapons and the different modes of transportations. Anyways, the party was quite a buzz. Natasha and Steve walked in hand in hand, eyeing the area.
"Left stairwell, two o' clock that's target 1." Natasha whispers, grabbing two glasses of champagne from the waiter whizzing by, handing one to Steve. Steve looks at her in confusion, giving her the "don't drink on the job look." Natasha gives him a quick peck on the cheek as someone smiles at them and whispers "One glass should be fine. Besides, you don't get drunk anyways."
"He has security and is armed. Those two waiters by the potted plants, they're carrying guns. The women next to him is glancing around." Steve whispers back as Natasha downs her glass of champagne and drags him towards their target.
"You know, maybe I should go flirt with the guy?" Natasha says with a teasing smile as she continues her path towards the target.
Steve stops and pulls her back. "Don't you dare. We're here as a couple, act like it." With that, he presses her against the wall and kisses her passionately. Natasha moans in response and he pulls away. "Public displays of affection make people very uncomfortable." He says, repeating the exact same line she had once used on him during their run from HYDRA, on the escalator of the mall.
