Y/N's POV

I walked into Nat's room, and shut the door behind me. "Babe?" I called out as I walked into the dark room. "You in here?" I began to get nervous as I couldn't see anybody but I was certain she had gone into her room. The curtains were drawn and all the lights were switched off putting me on edge. I walked forward slowly and as I reached her bed I stopped and looked around again. "Baby?" No reply.

I sighed and turned around. As I did someone pushed in the chest and made me fall onto her bed. I rolled over and kicked them in the side before switching Nat's bedside lamp on. The person fell back into the shadows, so I couldn't see their face. "Who are you?" I asked, preparing my mamba bite. They didn't reply and so I shot them where they lay. They rolled to the side at the last second, avoiding the poison and threw a dagger at my arm, making me fall pack as it pinned my suit to her mattress. Before I could pull the knife away 3 more pinned my other arm down and a fourth landed next to my head, point imbedded into the materess.

"How long?" The shadow creature asked.

"What are you on about?" I asked frustrated as I tried to pull one of the knives out with my teeth.

"Do it again and the knife will be in your leg." The person threatened as they threw another knife. This one dug into the neck of my suit so I couldn't sit up.

"Alright I won't move." I muttered. "So what do you want from me? Begging for my life, you want me to scream your name?" I said sarcastically.

"Well under different circumstances begging and yelling my name sounds good." The voice replied.

"Huh?" I was thoroughly confused now. The figure stepped into the light of the room, so that I could see them. "You." I said.

They walked towards me and pulled the knives from my arms and the one from my neck, releasing me. "Hey baby." Nat smirked.

"Not funny baby, I thought you were going to kill me." I said glaring at her.

"I thought about it, but decided interrogation should happen first." She smiled at me, faking innocence.

I laughed and went to stand up but her foot slammed into my shoulder as she held me down. "Why didn't you tell me?" She asked.

I groaned as the air was knocked from my lungs. I shook my head. "Tell you what?"

"About the fact you can talk into my head!" She hissed.

"Oh right yeah. I just didn't think it was that important. I have never needed to use it before." I told her truthfully.

"So you just decided to do it in the middle of a mission instead of over comms?" She questioned.

"I don't know it just happened, like I said first time I had deliberately used that power." I sulked as she still wasn't letting me up.

"So Hydra didn't give you that power?" She asked, keeping me down.

"No, I was born with it and I don't like using it so I never tell anybody." I said, heart pounding as her face was so close to mine.

"What else haven't you told me?" She asked, staring at me.

"A few things. I was planning on telling you but not so soon." I said quickly as she pulled out another knife.

"So tell me." She said running the point of the knife under her fingernails, cleaning them.

I chuckled nervously. "You're not going to use that on me are you?"

"Depends on the answers you give." She said seriously.

"Look Nat, babe, I like you a lot but it takes more than a kiss and a night of cuddling for me to trust you completely. I don't want to tell you yet but you deserve some answers which I will give soon. Just not right now." I told her calmly.

"Fine." She put her knife away and removed her boot from my shoulder, pulling me into a tight hug as I tried to stand.

"You are thoroughly terrifying though." I told her as I pulled away from the hug.

"Good. Why did you tense when I hugged you? She asked, concerned.

"Let's not talk about it right now, I need to see Wanda." I said looking at her.

"Oh yeah, Wanda who you hug without a second thought." She muttered bitterly.

"Hey, it's not like that. You are my girlfriend not her. But she is my best friend who just saw her brother and twin get shot 6 times so excuse me if my empathy towards her was faster than my dislike for hugs." I said sarcastically.

"You're right, I am sorry I just, I feel like you are going to leave like everybody else." The Russian muttered under her breath.

"I am not leaving. Except to get food, or talk to a friend. Now can I got check on her, i'll be back soon." I promised. She nodded her head and kissed me before watching me leave.

Y/N's POV

I walked over to Wanda's room and knocked on the door, no reply. I walked in and called out, "Wands?"

"I'm just in the shower, out in a sec." She replied. I sat on her bed as I waited for her. She had some pictures on her wall. A few selfies, some of her and Pietro, some of me and her, some of her and Nat, a couple team pictures and a fair few of me, Nat and her. I smiled as I remembered when the pictures were taken.

"Hey." She said from behind me.

"Hey, I just wanted to check that you were okay."I said turning around to face her. She had changed into her pj's and had washed her hair, leaving it damp as it fell to her shoulders.

"Yeah, I am doing alright." She sighed as she sat next to me.

"Don't lie to me." I said.

She smiled. "I'm worried about him. Pietro got shot 6 times! I know we helped him really quickly and Dr. Cho is amazing as is Bruce but I can't help but worry." She said, falling back, her head hitting her pillows.

"I know Wands." I said lying down next to her. "Pietro will be fine, it'll take a few days for him to come around again and maybe even a few months to heal. But he has the whole team here to help him, he has an amazing sister who would do anything for him. We all love your brother and whilst he can be a bit cocky, he is a good guy." I told her.

"I know. I just feel I could have done more." She confessed.

"We all could have done more, you are not the only one to blame." I said.

"Thanks, y/n. I am going to try sleep now but could you come with me tomorrow when I go see him?" She asked me.

"Yeah of course I will." I said getting up off the bed.

"How is Nat?" She asked me.

"Well she is annoyed at me. I have been keeping some things from her and now she wants answers. I am prepared to give them to her but never thought it would be this soon. She also got jealous when I hugged you on the jet." I laughed.

"Aw, that is adorable." She giggled.

"Don't let Nat hear you call her adorable." I warned jokingly.

"Never. Now go talk to her." Wanda ordered.

"Yes ma'am." I saluted her whilst laughing. I left her to sleep, shutting her door quietly and made my way back to Nat's room.

When I walked in I half expected her to throw another knife at me but she was fast asleep curled up in her bed. I smiled and turned off her bedside lamp, put the covers over her feet and shut the curtains. I kissed her on the forehead and as I went to leave she called out to me. "Babe?" She asked.

"Yeah hun?" I replied, walking back over.

"Where are you going?" She murmured.

"I was going back to my room." I told her gently.

"Stay with me?" She asked.

"Of course bubs." I smiled and laid down next to Nat who put her head on my chest and turned onto her side.

"I love you." She whispered against my collarbone.

"I love you too." I kissed her forehead and felt myself drifting away into sleep, safe in her presence once more.
