Work Text:

Soulmates: two souls that are deeply connected and once successfully found, can communicate through their minds, no matter how far the location or language that was spoken. They were rare and many people were driven insane with the search to find their one true love but not you, you’d accepted years ago that there may never be the chance of ever finding her until fate was on your side.

 

It had been a beautifully mundane day. The movies like to show a romantic first meeting between two souls tied together from the depths of time, whether it be colliding in a coffee shop, running through the rain or even the hero saving someone from a villain. This was not anything like the start to your story, in fact, there were many details you couldn’t remember.

 

Was it sunny? A Monday? Were you wearing jeans or leggings? You were completely unsure of any of these details but these were all menial with regard to the bigger picture no matter what day it was; it was the best day of your life as you met your soulmate. One minute your thoughts were your own, always described as ‘hauntingly silent’ by individuals who had already found their soulmates and thought back to the time before meeting their loved one.

 

Then the next, as you turned towards the exit of your work, your eyes hadn’t even connected with her green eyes, still mesmerised by her lips as another silky voice echoed, “Oh”, through your mind. It wasn’t just this, as a warmth settled through your chest, not realising how empty you had been surviving through life until you finally found her, Natasha, your soulmate.

 

Natasha Romanoff had recently joined SHIELD when the two of you met but, she was honest about her alter ego Black Widow, as well as her past as an assassin which quickly helped to decide the dynamic of your relationship: a secret.

 

You were a nurse in a small hospital in the middle of nowhere, it was a surprise to you that Natasha had even found your workplace with it only being used by the locals. This fact actually aided with you being able to keep the relationship secret, you were a nobody in comparison to Natasha, no one would even look in your direction with suspicions or notice a hooded figure sneaking into your home in the middle of the night with your lack of neighbours.

 

At first, it had been difficult, you’d just found someone you wanted to spend every waking second with but she had to travel around the world and face dangerous missions constantly. However, thankfully with your soulmate connection, you could talk through your minds as long as you were both awake. Then as aliens attacked Earth and the Avengers were formed, you were happy to still being hidden, knowing that if anyone found out about you, they could use you against Natasha so long-distance relationship it was.

 

Every single day, the two of you spoke, her words always feeling like being wrapped in a tight warm hug or when the tone changes, a seductive finger sliding down your spine.

 

Today, you were 5 hours into your shift at the hospital, finding a spare moment to wander down an empty corridor, hugging a report to your chest as a smile widened across your face.

 

You aren’t lying to me, are you? your words were teasing towards Natasha but had every undertone of seriousness behind them. 

 

Natasha had to hide her smile behind the microphone of the headpiece she wore as she was currently flying the Quinjet on the way back from a mission with the Avengers. Why would I lie to you, Milaya?

 

Your heartbeat quickened at the use of her nickname for you, Milaya, translating to darling, a name that often had you feeling safe and warm. It was also an easy way for Natasha to distract you from your questioning so you shook your head and tried to remain on track with your mind communication.

 

Please tell me, you encouraged, trying to find out if your soulmate had earned any injuries on this mission.

 

I’m fine, it’s only a scratch on my wrist. - and bruised ribs to match the deep purple shade forming along her jaw where some asshole managed to punch her in the face, but you didn’t need to know about that Natasha decided. You were at work and didn’t need the distraction.

 

Hmm fine, I’ll believe you for now but I’m going to see if you’re lying when you get here in 2 days' time, you responded trying to sound slightly doubtful, having had this conversation with the red-haired assassin far too many times before.

 

Natasha’s mouth quipped into a soft smile that she didn’t bother to hide, eyes softening as she looked across the extensive view of clouds. 2 days seemed like such a long time to you both, her stomach twisting uncomfortably thinking about the wait as she decided, I’ll try and visit sooner

 

Don’t rush baby, I would love to see you but please rest . It had been nearly two weeks since you had been able to hold or kiss Natasha and it was almost like you craved to be with her, needing to smell her hair, stroke her bare skin - you were going insane without her around. However, you couldn’t help but feel bad that she felt the need to rush to be with you, she was so busy on these missions, hardly eating, sleeping and having to be at peak physical performance at all times. She was doing the very most and travelling across the country to see you whereas you had to sit pretty and wait for her, yes you worked full-time at the hospital but it was hard to compare your fatigue to Natasha’s.

 

I just want to be with you, Natasha finally admitted, her voice losing the confident tone she had been trying to uphold for your benefit.

 

Your steps slowed to a stop as you stared at a crack in the concrete floor, I want to be with you too. You sighed out loud, wiping a hand down your face before trying to continue the conversation. Where are you at the moment?

 

Natasha swallowed the lump forming in her throat, the sudden overwhelming sensation to cry needing to pass as she was still surrounded by her friends in the Quinjet who had no idea she had found her soulmate all of those years ago. Looking at her coordinates,  she replied, we are flying over Colorado at the moment.

 

You smiled slightly as you approached the door you had originally been planning on visiting in the hospital, the happiness felt through the bond that Nat could feel her chest warming. Oh, I’ve always wanted to visit Colorado, I’ve heard the--.

 

Silence.

 

Not the silence that came with being distracted and losing your train of thought but the sort of quiet that left an empty hole in Natasha’s chest as she waited for you to finish your sentence but it never came. The assassin sat up further in her seat, heart beginning to pound violently behind her ribcage as the realisation dawned on her that the emotions she was experiencing were the haunting silence she felt before meeting you before there was ever a soulmate connection.

 

Milaya? Natasha asked into the void of her mind, but there wasn’t any sort of response or emotions felt back. Even when you were asleep, Natasha could feel your calmness and sense of contentment through the bond but it was just…lifeless.

 

MILAYA?! The red-haired woman was screaming through her mind, frantically pulling off her headset as they felt suddenly claustrophobic, forest green eyes darting wildly around the multitude of buttons laid out before her on the jet's console.

 

Nat hadn’t noticed that in her surge of anxiety to try and get you to respond, she had actually begun verbalising her nickname for you, which caught the attention of Tony who was sitting closest to her.

 

“Who? I’m not naming the jet that Nat, if- Woah”. Tony’s words were swiftly cut off as Natasha pushed past him, her mouth was painfully dry, eyes wide and unblinking with fear, the match the tremor that had settled in her hands as she grabbed the touchscreen computer typing in your hospital's location.

 

Her eyes moved faster across the screen than ever before. There was nothing, no reports of an attack, nothing that would be a reason for your bond to completely disappear. Next, she opened the local police scanners and reports but once more, there was nothing that reverted back to the hospital.

 

Every second that agonisingly ticked past, she continued to scream a mixture between your name and Milaya, hoping there would be some sort of a response but nothing seemed to come of it.

 

“Natasha? What is it?”, it was Steve who was asking now. Natasha's erratic behaviour was quickly questioned by her colleagues and friends who all approached and watched with confusion as she continued to lose all control.

 

Clint pushed past the others, grabbing onto his best friend's shoulders, his eyebrows furrowing as a tear slipped from the woman's eye, sliding down her cheek. Looking over her shoulder towards the screen, he recognised the hospital name, him being the only person that Natasha trusted with your whereabouts.

 

“What is it?” Clint demanded.

 

“I… I can’t hear her”, Natasha’s voice was quiet and displayed her distraught brokenness.

 

“Her? Who is her?” Tony asked.

 

“Tony, not now”, it was Bruce this time who spoke up, having never seen Natasha lose her composure like this, something had to be seriously wrong.

 

Clint’s hands moved to cup her cheeks, forcing her to look up at him, “Nat, I’m gonna need you to take a deep breath in for me and tell me what’s going on.”

 

Natasha removed herself from Clint’s grip after taking one steady breath before turning back towards the computer screen, not bothering to wipe away the tears that she couldn’t stop from falling as she attempted to log into the hospital's CCTV. From there, she rewound the feed to a couple of minutes ago and began to search through the corridors.

 

“Can someone explain what’s going on, please?” Steve asked, more sternly than before, trying to find some answers that he wasn’t getting.

 

However, the Black Widow wasn’t listening, becoming even more panic-stricken with each passing second as she searched for you on the screen until finally, some air returned to her lungs as she found you walking down a deserted corridor, the footage a minute before the bond suddenly stopped. Natasha nearly smiled at seeing you there, even though she couldn’t see the details of your face due to the low-quality cameras.

 

Tentatively, she, along with the rest of the Avengers, watched you walk down the corridor. Nat’s eyes continued to glance at the time, watching it tick down as you approached the door at the end of the corridor, opened it and stepped in and then nothing as it was the time everything became silent. There were no further camera feeds in that room, you were simply there one minute and then something happened in the room and the bond was gone.

 

Natasha rested her head against the computer, closing her eyes to put all of her effort into shouting your name into the void in her mind but the only thing that responded was the silence and the disrupting shouting from the people around her was distracting.

 

“Everyone shut up!”, she demanded with authority, thinking hard enough that it was beginning to form a migraine.

 

Glancing towards Clint, who looked just as worried as she felt, he asked, “Nothing? What about here?” he tapped against his chest, directly over his heart.

 

Natasha shook her head before a red suitcase caught her eye line. Taking a step towards Tony she demanded, “Give me the iron man suit”.

 

Tony scoffed, “What? Not until you explain what’s happening- wait what the fuck?!”

 

“GIVE ME THE SUIT!”, Natasha had lost all composure, not thinking clearly, only thinking about you as a priority as she reached into her holster and within half a second, had her gun pointed towards Tony’s head.

 

“Natasha, put the gun down, NOW.”, Steve demanded, taking a step towards the billionaire like he was going to stand in front of the gun for his friend.

 

Nat began to cry, still mumbling, “Give me the suit Tony”, the hand holding the gun still visibly shaking. Clin stepped directly in the path between the gun and Tony before Steve could, he held up his hands for good measure to show he didn’t mean any harm.

 

“Nat listen to me”, his voice was calm and low as he spoke, like he was talking to a frightened animal. “Even if you wear his iron man suit, I don’t think you’re in the right mindset to be by yourself so this is what’s going to happen. You’re going to lose the gun and I’m going to sit in the pilot seat and fly us to her, we’ll be there in a couple of hours but you need to calm down right now, this jet is too small to be firing guns and you know it”.

 

She knew he was right, thankful that she had a friend to talk some sense into her as she lowered the gun, nodding her head towards Clint who rushed to the seat she was just sitting in, placing the headset over his head. Returning the gun back into her holster and watching as Clint increased the speed of the jet, she suddenly jumped as Bruce began talking to her.

 

“How long has it been since you found her?” he offered her a warm drink that she hadn’t noticed him pour for her. Of course, Bruce was the first to suss out what was going on. Nat held the warm drink in her hands and forced herself to drink it, even though the nausea she felt was overwhelming, she needed to try and keep calm.

 

“Before I knew any of you…except for Clint”, Natasha admitted quietly, sitting in one of the seats surrounding the edge of the Quinjet.

 

Steve sighed heavily, sitting next to her, now understanding just what was going on.

 

“Wait, so you’ve had a soulmate this entire time and you didn’t tell any of us?” Tony asked, sounding slightly disheartened by the news.

 

“I had…I NEEDED to keep her safe Tony. Do you really think our jobs don’t come without any repercussions?” Tony shivered at Nat’s words, thinking about the number of times his soulmate Pepper had been caught in the crossfire due to him being Iron Man. “Exactly. I can’t lose her, she’s… the only person I have and the only one I let get close to me, she’s my only one and now, she's not answering my calls, something is wrong, I know it is”.

 

The Avengers all nodded their head solemnly, understanding why she had reacted the way that she did. Tony sat opposite Nat, eyes full of remorse, “So is her name Milaya? That’s what I heard you say earlier”.

 

Natasha released a half-assed chuckle beneath her breath, “No that’s just a nickname, her name is y/n”, she allowed herself to smile for a split second, thinking about the first time she’d called you Milaya and how fond you were of it.

 

Then realisation dawned on her that this was really happening. Not only were you potentially in danger but now the Avengers also knew about you, could this potentially mean you didn’t need to hide anymore? Shaking her head she left that thought for another time, needing to make sure you were ok first.

 

“Everyone strap in”, Clint shouted over his shoulder, the jet beginning to reach it’s maximum speed. Natasha attached the buckles around herself tightly, dropping her head back and continued to try and shout down the bond.



Clint landed in the near-empty car park in record timing much to Natasha’s relief, who hardly waited for the doors to fully open before jumping down onto the tarmac. Even though the car park was bare for vehicles, there was still a scattering of people gathered around, visiting people in the hospital or using the facilities which meant, as the Avengers were suddenly in this forgotten-about town, it caught their attention quickly, shouts and whispers from every direction.



This didn’t stop the group however as they followed Natasha into the building, her footsteps fierce and confident, face full of determination, all tears gone as anger replaced those feelings. There wasn’t any immediate sigh of distress as they entered the building, and no sign of an attack still or police presence.

 

The reception lay straight ahead, and immediately, Natasha knew that it was the receptionist Bonnie behind the counter, someone you had talked about with affection on many occasions and it dawned on the assassin that she probably knew every professional in this small building.

 

Trying to not sound too aggressive but still holding the urgent tone, Natasha stopped before the counter, staring at Bonnie who looked up with comically wide eyes, glancing at each of the Avengers before looking back at Black Widow as she began speaking, “Y/N, where is she?”

 

Bonnie frowned in bewilderment, “Nurse Y/N? But how did you know-”

 

Natasha’s heart dropped painfully as the receptionist seemed to confirm that something had happened. Beginning to lose her composure once more, her voice raised in noise level as she demanded, “Where is she? Is she even here? Did someone take her? Is she dead-?”

 

Bonnie quickly cut off Natasha’s rant, standing from her seat with raised hands, “No! No she's not dead but something did happen earlier, let me take you to her”.

 

She directed the group down a corridor, half running with how fast Natasha was trying to walk in front of her, ignoring the stares from the other patients and professionals. As they approached a series of windowed rooms, Bonnie began to explain what had happened.

 

“A … a guy came in earlier, we think he snuck through the basement but he was caught stealing meds which were where Nurse Y/N was stationed and…she found him in the cupboard and he hit her hard across the head, by the time we found her, the guy was gone and she was unconscious on the floor. The doctors are still waiting for her to wake up was the last update that I had”.

 

Natasha was reeling from the information, knees momentarily buckling but Clint was right behind her, hand under her arm to keep her upright and moving. You were alive, that was the information that alarmed through her mind, you were unconscious that was why she couldn’t feel the concentration, it wasn’t like you were asleep and could wake at any time, you’d been forcibly put to sleep, your body healing and cold.

 

Then there was the fact that someone had actually hurt and injured HER soulmate, right now, you were her priority but the second you were feeling better, nothing and no law would stop Natasha from hunting this guy down.

 

Suddenly Bonnie stopped in front of a large window that looked into a private room that had light filtering through the blinds causing an orange hue to shift across where you lay in the hospital bed in the centre of the room. There were a few machines scattered around that were monitoring your observations and a nurse recording the results standing next to the bed.

 

Natasha had to use every part of her training to try and hold back the audible sob that threatened to explode from her mouth as she didn’t wait for permission to walk into the room. However, no one seemed to have the courage to even question the Avenger, all looking confused between her and the other heroes, nurses and healthcare assistants gathering to see what all the commotion was about.

 

The nurse turned, hearing someone else entering to room, her eyes widening just as exaggeratedly as Bonnie’s and Natasha was quick to read his name tag, Chris. Internally she smiled knowing you were in good hands, Chris had a reputation at the hospital for his quality of care and that you and he were close friends, it must have been hard for him to then stay professional and give care for his friends.

 

“Is…Is she ok?” Natasha finally found her tongue to ask the Nurse, her green eyes wandering over every inch of your body. You looked almost peaceful, except for the fact that you were still in your Nurse tunic and there was a bandage plastered to your forehead.

 

A wave of nauseous anger rushed through Nat’s body but she took a deep breath, trying to steady herself. Chris’s full attention was now on the Avenger as he answered her question with a surprisingly sturdy tone considering he was talking to one of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. “She’s had several stitches to close the injury, we found a metal pole next to her covered in blood so she took a strong hit. Thankfully there’s no internal damage shown in the scans and she’s yet to wake up but her observations have remained stable. Even if she wakes, she’ll need to stay for a day or so to fully assess the damage.”

 

The red-haired woman nodded, feeling somewhat relieved hearing this.

 

“Natasha?” Clint asked from the doorway having heard what Chris had said, waiting until the assassin turned towards him before continuing. “You good? We’ll get out of here to give you some space just… keep in touch, will you? Let us know when she wakes up and-”, his voice lowered dangerously low, “we’ll find the guy”.

 

Natasha nodded thankfully, even though she wanted to find whoever did this, the promising look in Clint’s eyes she knew to trust that he had it covered. The rest of the Avengers shuffled back down the corridor, waving at the onlookers, thankfully taking the spotlight off of Natasha for a second as she attempted to step closer to you.

 

With no one there to hold her up, her knees buckled once more with overwhelming relief pulsing through her heart as she reached for your hand, her eyes filling with tears at the warm skin of your hand against yours, finally feeling grounded and connected to you.

 

Chris was quick to provide a chair for the Assassin, leaving the two of you and ushering away the spectators through the window, Natasha decided she would find him later to thank him for this.

 

“Oh Milaya,” Natasha sighed as her face searched yours, hand gripping yours before stroking the back with his thumb.

 

The movement seemed to stir something with you as your fingers twitched in her grasp, a moan releasing from your mouth, eyes flicking beneath your still-closed eyelids. It almost felt like instinct for you to turn your head towards Natasha, feeling her presence there as the further you stirred, the mouth the empty hole in Natasha’s chest filled with your bond.

 

“Natasha?” you whispered, voice thick and slurring slightly.

 

Nat brushed her other hand across your cheek, leaning down to lightly kiss the part of your temple that wasn’t covered in bandages, mumbling “I’m here, baby”. For this once, she absolutely didn’t care who could see the two of you, Natasha allowed herself to be vulnerable for a moment, she thought she’d lost you, there was no way she was wasting another moment again.

 

A further hour passed before you moved again, sucking in a deep breath to properly fill your lungs and frowning, feeling something was off but not sure what. Blinking open your eyes, you flinched at the bright light that sent pain sparking across your head.

 

“Milaya?”, Natasha whispered, careful to keep the noise down to not affect your sensitive senses. Her thumb brushed across your soft cheek, trying to help you arouse so she could see your pretty eyes.

 

“Nat?” you asked again, voice still sounding just as slurred and thick as before, “Am I dreaming?”.

 

Eventually, your eyes opened, squinting against the orange light still pouring through the outside window. Even though the doctors had been giving you pain relief through your IV that was attached to the back of your hand that Natasha wasn’t holding, you were still sensitive to the lingering concussion.

 

“There are those pretty eyes”, Natasha praised as you looked at her hovering over you. “You aren’t dreaming, you’re ok, you’re safe”.

 

“What- What’s going on?” you asked, feeling like something was wrong but not quite understanding just yet. You were confused and dazed still. Attempting to sit up, you frowned as your soulmate pushed against your shoulders, keeping you lying but you were only attempting to be closer to her.

 

“Hey it’s ok, you don’t need to get up, you need to rest”, Nat encouraged, watching as you looked down at your body, observing the leads attached to various areas to monitor your observations, the cannula in your hand to the heavy feeling in your head, lifting said hand to brush over the soft material of the bandage on your head. Natasha cupped your hand and pulled it away from your injury, “Be careful my love, you’ve been hurt, don’t touch it”.

 

“I’ve been hurt?” you asked with confusion but the slur was very much still evident, you still need to rest and recover.

 

“Yeah, do you … remember anything that’s happened? Do you know what day it is?” Natasha asked, staring down worriedly at you.

 

You tried to think hard about today but your mind continued to be blank with delirium. “Uh… I don’t remember anything. I feel like I'm floating through space”, you admitted but then something dawned on you, even though you couldn’t name what day it was, you knew you were at work, having been in this particular room hundreds of times and Natasha was definitely next to you right now, still dressed in her Black Widow uniform. Eyes flicking over her shoulder to the indoor window, you could see some of your colleagues walking around. “You’re here! In front of everyone, they’ll see you, Natasha!”

 

Natasha’s eyes softened, hands coming up to cradle your face, “Shhh Milaya, I don’t care that they’ve seen me. Baby, I thought you were dead.” Her eyes dropped from yours to stare at your name tag that was clipped to your tunic, willing the heavy emotions to remain at bay, you needed to rest and she didn’t want to make you more upset. “We were talking and then you were silent but usually, I can feel you even when you’re asleep but there was nothing and I couldn’t… I had to come here, I thought you were in danger, I mean, you were in danger! Apparently, some asshole was stealing med and you found him so he hit you with a metal bar”.

 

“I’m sorry I scared you”, you responded, feeling overwhelming guilt over the situation but still feeling completely dazed and out of it. “Will you stay?” you asked hopefully, reaching up to touch her cheek gently.

 

“I’m not leaving your side”, Natasha confirmed.

 

“Good”. The two of you stayed silent for a few minutes as the assassin returned to sitting in her seat, lifting your hand to place it back against her cheek so she could nuzzle into it. You smiled at her softness, something she didn’t often like to display before something else caught your eye, your fingers nimbly grasping her chin to turn her head away from you so you could look at her chin, seeing the painful bruise there, “I thought it was just a scratch you got on this mission?” you asked with a raised eyebrow.

 

“Ah, so you do remember somethings”, Natasha smirked, referring to the conversation the two of you were having before you were attacked.

 

“Oh little bits,” you admitted, “I bet we look like a right pair”, you joked, eyes closing with heaviness suddenly exhausted.

 

“Get some sleep Milaya”, Natasha muttered against the palm of your hand.

 

I love you, you spoke into the mind connection, feeling heat spreading across your chest with love.

 

Natasha had never heard such beautiful words before, sighing and leaning over before she could stop herself to kiss your lips softly, audibly whispering, “I love you too”.

 

Thankfully, 24 hours later you were discharged and finally bombarded by your friends and colleagues that were swiftly brushed away by Natasha as she led you towards the exit, but she quickly admitted that her phone had been going off constantly from the Avengers, wanting to invite you over soon to be introduced.

 

It took Clint three hours to find the man responsible for the attack and had been keeping him in a secret holding for Natasha, not that the woman was rushing to leave your side any time soon.

 

The days passed by and you were forced to rest by both the Doctor and Natasha, who was quick to do anything and everything for you and you were more than thankful, the symptoms of the concussion taking longer than you’d anticipated to wear off. 

 

Finally, you felt strong enough to climb out of bed, the smell of food being cooked coming from the kitchen had your stomach growling in hunger as you quickly had a shower, still careful of the plaster over your stitches but the massive bandage had been removed thankfully.

 

After dressing in only an oversized top and shorts, you smiled lovingly at the sight of Natasha in the kitchen, standing in dark joggers and a thin grey vest, her hands moving skillfully over the food that was cooking, toast popping up in the toaster.

 

You began to move forward with the plan to help her by buttering the toast, greeting her with a “Hello beautiful”, and reaching for the knife and butter. However, your attempts were futile as Natasha snatched away the utensil.

 

“Nope, I’m doing that, go and sit down please”, she began moving away from you, to continue with her cooking.

 

Rolling your eyes, you simply found another butter knife from the drawer and moved back to the toast, “I’m fine! I can butter my own toast, Natasha”.

 

Once again, she simply removed the knife from your hand, shaking her head with a throaty laugh, “I’m looking after you so go and sit down”.

 

“You have looked after me and I’m feeling almost normal except for the stitches”, you admitted, pulling the toast over from the toaster and placing it onto the plate, moving closer to Nat to try and snatch the knives out of her hand but she held it at arm's length, still smirking. “You’re relentless you know that?” you finally admit defeat, hand dropping to your side.

 

You watched her move for a moment, not planning on sitting down at all before stepping behind her as she stirred something in one of the pans. Your hands rested against her waist, fingers teasing along the hem of her vest to finally slip beneath and feel her warm, soft skin as your lips kissed along her exposed shoulder. You smiled against her, hearing the relaxed sigh escape her mouth.

 

“Hmm… and you are good at distractions”, Natasha quipped over her shoulder, leaning into your touch.

 

“I’ve missed you,” you admitted thoroughly, even though the two of you had been together for the last few days, due to you resting, you hadn’t been able to be intimate and you missed her, especially being away for so long before the attack.

 

I’ve missed you too, Milaya. Natasha spoke through your mind, hands moving to rest over yours before turning slightly towards you. “But- I need you to eat first, your stomach growling woke me up this morning and I’d feel much more content knowing your belly as full before I take your clothes off”.

 

You swallowed harshly at the end of her sentence, thankful that she wasn’t fighting you on being intimate and you could deal with the request, kissing her mouth quickly before stepping back towards the table that was already set for the two of you to eat.

 

Sitting down, you watched mesmerised as she cooked, it looking almost like she was dancing around the kitchen, you knew you could never be as graceful as her but she also had extensive training which aided with her movements. Your core clenched though as her vest continued to ride up on her hips, exposing more of her stomach and you wanted nothing more than to lick the area.

 

“Having fun over there?” Natasha asked with a wicked smirk plastered on her beautiful face as she observed your wandering eyes and the shifting you were doing on the chair with your obvious arousal.

 

You bite your lip to hide your grin at being caught, not quite finding the words to respond that wasn’t a request to take her clothes off so you distracted yourself by drinking the glass of water that was already placed on the table.

 

The two of you ate and chatted about Natasha’s teammates, especially Tony who had sent about 50 invitations to you to join the numerous events that were coming up that the Avengers had to attend, hoping you would accept one so he could bombard you with questions.

 

You both had decided that you’d attend one eventually, increasing the security would be easier now as you didn’t need to hide away. This new found freedom was exhilarating and you couldn’t wait to walk down the street, holding her hand and showing everyone that she was yours.

 

Scrapping the plate clean and moaning at how good the food tasted, you stood to wash up the plates but once again, Natasha was grabbing the plates from your hands, moving over to the sink and placing them into the warm water.

 

“We can do that later”, she informed, extending her slender hand for you to take and leading the way towards the bedroom. The two of you lay in the centre of the bed, your eyes were already heavy, you hadn’t realised just how tired you were, with a full stomach and it had been the most you’d moved in days and had exhausted you quickly.

 

You felt bad having teased her and attempted to reach for her but she easily held down your arms, pulling your body against hers, fingers moving delicately across your scalp in a calming manner. “Get some sleep baby, I’ll be here when you wake up”.

 

When you finally woke, you were greeted with the peaceful sight of Natasha also sleeping, her features completely relaxed. Watching her for a moment, you carefully lifted your hand, attempting to tuck a strand of hair that had fallen across her face behind her ear but in a blink, your hand was stopped in midair as Natasha gripped your wrist.

 

You grinned as she opened her eyes, “It’s really creepy when you do that”.

 

Natasha’s plump lips tilted into a smirk, her eyes flicking across your face as she bought your wrist up to her mouth, kissing the sensitive skin on the inside that sent a shiver through your spine. “You love how quick I am, really”, she teased, her voice completely sultry to match the darkening look in her eyes.

 

“I love everything about you”, you countered, leaning closer, finally closing the gap between your lips. Both of you released a heavy sigh, breaths fanning across each other's faces at finally touching. Your skin burned instantly, feeling like there were tiny electric pulses coming from wherever your skin met and it always felt like that when it was with your soulmate, intense and powerful.

 

Natasha broke the kiss first but only to move down your cheek, on her own journey to reach your lobe, nibbling the sensitive flesh between her teeth that caused a deep moan to vibrate in your chest as your fingers reached for the thin straps on her shoulders, efficiently pushing them down.

 

“My Milaya”, Natasha whispered against your ear, her fingers, pushing underneath your shirt to do their own exploration. Just before the tips of your fingers began to graze over her now exposed breasts, she pushed you fully onto your back, easily rolling on top, straddling over your abdomen her shoulder-length hair falling and framing her face as she leaned over you. “Let me make you feel good”.

 

You mewled in response, admiring the beauty that she was, the way her lips parted and shined in the light, the straps dropped off of her shoulder that allowed for her vest to drop and reveal her perked breasts that were desperate to be touched. A finger slid under your chin as she looked at you with a raised eyebrow. 

 

“You’re so beautiful Natalia”, you praised, hoping your eyes showed as much affection as your words did. Natasha’s shoulders visibly dropped with love at the use of her birth name before she was leaning over you and kissing you fiercely, desperately moving, tongue pushing and flicking against your own, both moaning as you could taste each other.

 

Your hips lifted trying to find some friction but ended up grinding against Nat who groaned at the contact, her fingers suddenly reaching to grasp the edges of her vest, pausing the kiss for a second so she could remove the offensive material before moving back down to your mouth.

 

It felt so good to have her chest naked, rubbing against your t-shirt, that she was willing to be so bare before you. Your fingers caressed down her spine first before pulling around to the front, grazing over her scars and careful of her still healing bruised ribs that didn’t seem to phase Nat anymore as you finally cupped her tits.

 

You felt the weight of them against your palm, squishing the beautiful flesh before tweaking her pretty nipples, earning a grind down from Nat’s hips on your abdomen. Smiling against her mouth, you knew she had ultra-sensitive nipples which only made it more fun to play with them, hearing the desperate little moans she would release.

 

Suddenly, you were left cold and reaching for more as Nat sat up, pushing her hair out of her face as she looked down at you, “take off your clothes”, she demanded whilst climbing off of your lap to remove her joggers speedily. You did as instructed, first removing your shirt and then your underwear before lying back down and Nat was straight away straddling your body again.

 

With no layers of material between the two of you, her bare, noticeably wet cunt now lay against your abdomen. Your hands went to her hips to grind her hips further against you, making her rock her body against yours as she leaned down once more to kiss you, your breasts rubbing together as her pussy rolled against your stomach.

 

“I’m supposed to be making you feel good”, Nat whispered breathlessly against your neck of which she had moved to leave open-mouthed kisses against the sensitive skin.

 

You chuckled, releasing her hip with one hand to reach between your bodies to play with her nipple again, feeling the vibration of her moan melt into where your chests touched. “You are making me feel good”, you responded just as breathlessly, rubbing your thighs together and feeling how wet you were.

 

The assassin suddenly moved, half climbing down your body and moving one of your legs over her hip, lowering her hips and then her cunt was stroking against yours. The two of you moaned, and your eyes flicked between her now swollen parted lips and where her hips began rolling against yours, your clit brushing against yours, both of your juices mixing together.

 

You matched her movements, gripping onto the leg that she had positioned over yours still, your hips rolling with hers, both gasping and mewling as your clits were rubbed and swiped against each other.

 

“Feel so good baby”, Natasha praised, her hand coming up to cup against your breast, massaging the flesh slowly to match the thrusting of her hips. Your head flung back as she tweaked your pebbled nipples as she pressed especially hard against your clit. “Do you like when I rub on you Milaya?” she asked you, feeling her cunt pulse with arousal at seeing you experience such pleasure.

 

“Yes, feel so so good”, you groaned, also reaching up to play with her tits, before sitting up slightly and pulling her face down, kissing her desperately as you both chased your highs, clits still sliding against one another with how wet you both were.

 

You were so close, your core beginning to tighten as you began to chant her name like a prayer, needing and wanting her, begging not to stop as Natasha was responding with just as much desperation.

 

Your cunt then started fluttering as you came, hands gripping onto Natasha hard enough that you were sure to leave bruises but it just felt so good that you couldn’t stop. Natasha continued her movements for a few further minutes, finding her own release with a beautiful gasp. 

 

You had planned for her to catch her breath but she was moving before you could comprehend that she was, your legs being pushed back against your chest to expose your soaked cunt to her as she lay down on her stomach, eyes connecting with yours as her mouth dropped to your pussy.

 

She began by licking up everything you had spilt, moaning at the taste of yours and her juices, tongue pushing through your folds before teasing your hole that was still twitching to be filled. Your hands replaced hers with holding up your leg, of which she gave a long lick up your entire middle as a reward, now freeing up her hands. With one, she spread you open, giving her the perfect view of your clit and hole and then she was diving right in, her lips sealing around your clit and sucking whilst two of her powerful fingers pushed inside of you, curling instantly about your special spot.

 

“Oh my god- Natasha!” you moaned, and you could feel her smiling against your bundle of nerves at your reaction, seeing your eyes closed to concentrate solely on the pleasure that was being given you. This was all you had wanted for weeks, to be with her, spend time touching and pleasuring each other's bodies, feel the bond glowing and strengthening with the time spent together.

 

Natasha’s skilled tongue and fingers drew a toe-curling orgasm out of you, your back arching to try and grind your hips on her face. She had been a master at work, her eyes never leaving your face as she watched you go through all the stages of pleasure.

 

You were then rolling the two of you over, and you wanted nothing more than repay her with your tongue but you still had to be careful of the stitches on your forehead. So instead, you used your fingers in her soaking cunt and your mouth sucked leisurely on her nipples which had her clenching around your fingers, your thumb stroking against her throbbing clit.

 

“Milaya, don’t stop”, Natasha cried out, hands clenching into the sheet below, her thighs shaking around your hand, a pink glow to her cheeks as she watched you move from one breast to the next. You didn’t stop, wouldn’t stop until she was cuming around you and the way her walls were becoming tighter, her breaths coming out in short bursts you knew it would be soon.

 

“Cum for me ‘Tasha, wanna hear your moans”, you encouraged after releasing her nipple for a second and then going straight back to sucking it harshly into the back of your mouth.

 

“Ah! Yes-!”, Nat’s eyes rolled back as she began quivering around your fingers and you didn’t stop your movements, making sure to draw out every ounce of pleasure that you could, until her hips jolted through overstimulation.

 

Easing your fingers out of you, you quickly drew them to your mouth, moaning at the sweet taste of her before she was sitting up and kissed your lips. Her tongue stroked against yours and you could taste yourself on her, and you hoped she could do the same taste herself on your mouth.

 

Then you were both collapsing into the middle of the bed, limbs tangled together facing one another and trying to catch your breaths, sweat glistening off of your bodies. Smiling softly at her beautiful expression, feeling her thumb stroke near to your stitches, you asked, “what's going on in that head of yours?”

 

“I’m just thankful you’re here with me, I don’t know what I’d do if something happened to you”, she admitted in nothing more than a whispering volume.

 

Reaching to take her hand in your own, you kissed her knuckles, feeling the scars beneath your lips, “You don’t ever have to worry about that baby”.
