Memories

E: How is your recovery?

S: A little slow in my opinion.

E: Oh, you don't even look like you got shot, you look great. Very great. I have course in nursing and massage. If you need help getting medication, or need a session, you can talk to me. I will not charge anything.

S: Oh no way, I make a point of paying.

Natasha cleared her throat.

S: Nice to know that, Elisa. Right, Nat?

Steve looked at Natasha, smiling. Natasha just nodded, with the same serious expression.

N: Do you have children, Elisa?

E: No, no. I don't.

N: So, why are you walking by here?

Elisa smiled.

E: Oh... It's just because I work in that cafeteria next to here and I saw Sarah and I decided to say hello.

Elisa pointed across the street and Natasha looked where she was pointing.

S: You need to try the chicken sandwich Elisa does.

E: Ah, stop it, Steve. I don't even prepared for other costumers, I did for you... and Sarah, of course.

Natasha rolled her eyes and sighed.

N: I bet it's delicious.

The nursery bell rang. Elisa said goodbye and went to work. The kids went to the entrance queue, but Sarah hugged Steve's leg.

S: Sarah? What's it?

Sarah: I don't want to go.

S: What do you mean? You love school.

Sarah: I don't want to go, I want to be with you.

Sarah's teacher approached after realizing she didn't want to come in.

- Hi Sarah. Lets go in?

Sarah buried her face in Steve's leg.

Sarah: No!

S: Sarah.

Steve pulled her away to look at her.

S: Why don't you want to stay?

Sarah: I don't want you to leave.

N: Sarah, your father will be here when you leave.

Sarah: He disappears and so do you.

Natasha crouched and looked at her.

N: What do you mean?

Sarah: Daddy says he's coming back, but he doesn't, it's always Cindy.

S: Sarah, you know it's only when Daddy has work, but I always come back home.

Sarah shook her head. Natasha held her hands.

N: I promise you that when you leave today, me and your father will be here...

Natasha looked into Sarah's eyes.

N: Do you trust me?

Sarah nodded.

N: All right, now... You're a lady and you go with the teacher. No crying...

Sarah held the teacher's hand and entered the school, but she kept looking back to see if Steve and Natasha were really waiting for her until the time of leaving.

Steve and Natasha stayed until the doors got closed and then they walked back to the car.

Steve was silent for much of the trip. When they stopped at the traffic light, Natasha looked at Steve.

N: What's bothering you?

S: Nothing.

N: Oh, c'mon... All thi silence, your forehead is frowned...

S: I'm just thinking about what Sarah said.

N: She'll be fine.

S: Yes, she will... But she's right.

Steve looked at Natasha.

S: I never have time to warn them that I'm going on a mission, we just go and suddenly they have to stay in the house of strangers, until we can return.

N: We have a job.

S: I know. It's part of work, of my life and yours, but it shouldn't be of our children's life. Every time I went on a mission, half of me remained here, worried about them. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if I didn't come back from a mission.

N: Steve...

S: Hypothetically speaking. It's not hard to happen, we both put ourselves at risk all the time.

N: In order to protect the lives of thousands, including our children.

S: Yes. But...

Steve sighed and looked out the window as Natasha continued driving.

N: I know what you mean. Are you thinking about retiring?

Steve shook his head.

S: I don't know.

N: I can sense that you feel guilty every time you leave the kids and you also feel guilty about leaving the team. From what I knew, you owe nothing to this world, Steve Rogers. The world is who owes you.

S: It would be selfish.

N: Steve? Look at me.

Steve was clearly tormented by these doubts. He looked at Natasha, who had just parked the car in front of her building.

N: If there's one thing I'm sure you're not. It's selfish. You're just being a good dad. I understand and I support whatever you decide about the job, do what is best for you and the kids.

Steve and Natasha continued to look at each other for a few seconds. Natasha laid her hand on Steve's shoulder and smiled a little, empathizing with what he was feeling.

Natasha got out of the car.

N: Wait here, I need to get some clothes.

Steve nodded and a few minutes later, Natasha returned with a backpack.

Natasha drove to Steve's building. They were both silent for the rest of the trip.

Upon arriving at the apartment, Steve opened the door, and came in after Natasha.

S: I need to take a shower.

Natasha looked awkwardly at Steve.

N: Are you going to need me for... the shower?

S: Oh no, it's okay.

Natasha felt a certain relief, it would be very weird to give a bathe in Steve. Weird and dangerous. She does not want to send him to the hospital again.

Steve went to take a shower in his bathroom, inside his room, while that Natasha noticed that the living room was a mess, with toys scattered around and she decided clean it up and put things back on place.

After that, Natasha searched for the control of the TV and spotted it on the shelf. As Natasha stepped closer to get the control, she noticed the books on the shelf and looked at the titles to see Steve's reading style.

Steve came back to the living room and leaned against the edge of the wall and crossed his arms, watching Natasha, who sensed Steve's presence.

N: You're an Agatha Christie fan. I like her books.

S: Me? No. These are your books.

Natasha turned her head and looked at Steve over her shoulder, then she looked at the books again.

S: I'm sorry, I forgot to let you know about them. You can take them with you when you leave.

N: It's alright.

Natasha ran her fingers through the books, trying to remember which books she had read and touching one of them, in particular, she had a sudden illness, her sight darkened, and she almost fainted.

Steve ran toward her, and held her.

S: Natasha?

Steve led her to the couch, Natasha looked stoned. Steve made her lie down and he ran to pick ice water and a compress.

He leaned the cold compress against Natasha's forehead.

Natasha slowly blinked a few times and looked at Steve.

S: Are you okay?

N: You gave me that book.

Steve looked at the bookshelf and looked at the books.

N: The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side... You gave me that book.

Steve frowned and looked at Natasha confused. He gave one of those books to Natasha, but since he's not a fan, he does not remember the title. But anyway, how does she know that? Is she asking or remembering about it?

N: You gave it to me. I saw. I remember you handing me a gift. It was my birthday...

S: Yes... Do you remember that?

N: Not much, that's all I remember, but I'm confuse because it wasn't really my birthday. I don't know...

S: Well, that's because no one knew what day was your birthday. And we made bets to find out the date, you never revealed, never let us make parties for you.

N: I hate birthdays, it's unnecessary.

Steve smiled and sat down on the edged of the seat of the couch.

S: That's exactly what you told me back then. We were not together as a couple yet, but I was already in love with you, and I remember that I wanted to know your birthday, because I knew you were a fan of Agatha Christie.

Natasha frowned.

N: I didn't tell anyone about it. I'm pretty sure of that.

S: I know.

N: Did you spy on me?

S: Not exactly...

... Memories of Steve Rogers ...

Clint: She'll be fine.

Clint said as he opened the door to Natasha's room. Steve entered the room with her in his arms and laid her on the bed.

Natasha was anesthetized after being injured on a mission. Steve refused to leave the room. Clint put his hand on Steve's shoulder and warned that it was useless be there, because she was already medicated, they could only wait.

Clint left the room.

Steve watched over Natasha's sleep all night to make sure she was okay. Steve sat in the armchair and began to look around her room. There was nothing decorative, nothing to say that was her home.

How cold can she be? Steve thought.

Steve noticed only a few books on the shelf. All the books were from Agatha Christie.

Steve looked at Natasha's and smiled as he realized that he had found something that Natasha likes.

... Current times ...

N: What a stalker, Steve Rogers. Should I be worried now?.

Steve laughed.

S: I didn't mean to be invasive.

N: I know, I'm just teasing you. Tell me about the next day you discovered my taste for books... Was that, the same day that you gave me?

S: No, no. I bought the book after you recovered, the next day, but I didn't know how to give you the book, without raising suspicions of you or our friends.

N: You're getting red.

S: Yes. I can't avoid.

N: I think that's lovely.

Natasha smiled and Steve looked away, extremely embarrassed.

S: I kept the book for one year.

N: One year?? Oh my God, how hard can it be to give me a book?

S: Yes. I thought I would never give it to you...

... Memories of Steve Rogers ...

S: Natasha, can I talk to you?

N: Of course. What's it?

Steve waited a few seconds to answer, he took a deep breath and just showed a present he was hiding behind his body. He held out to Natasha.

S: I just wanted to give you that.

Natasha frowned, looking at the present.

N: For me? What is it?

Natasha opened the present.

S: Happy birthday.

Natasha looked at Steve and made negative with her head.

N: It's not my birthday.

S: Yes, it is.

Natasha looked at him confused.

S: You never told me. I asked Tony to investigate, and neither he nor Clint knew how to tell me what day it was your birthday. So... I decided that your birthday is today.

Natasha was surprised, she looked at the present again and saw that it was a book Agatha Christie.

Natasha frowned and didn't show if she was happy or if she hated the present and that was killing Steve inside.

Natasha seemed to be looking at the present too much. Natasha walked a little and Steve watched her.

N: Come with me.

Steve followed Natasha through the halls of the Avengers Base.

Natasha stopped in a place that Steve didn't use to go often, and she pressed a button on the bracelet device she wore and a secret passage on the floor opened. Natasha came down and Steve looked at her in surprise.

N: Come on.

Steve seemed uncertain whether to enter that place or not. If she kills him in this hiding place, no one will ever find his body.

Steve came down with fear. Natasha pressed the button again and the passage closed.

S: It's too dark here. I can't see anything.

It really was completely dark. Natasha didn't say another word, nor did she seem to be there anymore, Steve began to suspect that she was gone and left him there alone.

S: Natasha? Natasha?

N: Sh... Hush... Did you think I'd leave you here alone?

S: It's just... I can't see anything.

Steve could hear Natasha's footsteps in his direction and for some reason his heart was beating very fast, it seemed that his death was imminent.

Natasha has such a strange and mysterious way to act, you never know what she's up to.

And Steve was surprise when Natasha stood in front of him and took his hand.

Natasha led Steve's hand up to her face. Steve couldn't see anything yet, but to feel her skin, it was extremely comforting,

N: You can't see, but... Can you feel it?

Steve didn't answer, he couldn't reason at the moment. He thought it was some kind of trick, that the lights would turn on and all the Avengers would be there laughing at the silly role he played.

Natasha left her hand over Steve's hand on her face and she used her other hand to pick up Steve's other hand and place on her waist. Natasha could feel that Steve was nervous, by the way his hands were shaking and the way he was breathing.

Natasha stood on tiptoe and lifted her face further toward Steve's face. She put her hand on his neck and made him tilt his head toward her.

N: How long have you wanted this?

S: What?

Natasha touched her lips to Steve's, as soon as their mouths got a good fit, Natasha let her tongue slip into Steve's mouth, who seemed a little desperate to feel her tongue.

Steve didn't know what to do with a woman's body, especially with someone as intimidating as Natasha is.

Natasha ended up smiling during the kiss, it was funny the way Steve just declared himself with a kiss.

Steve grabbed the back of Natasha's neck and then her waist. He pressed her tightly against his body, which made Natasha put her hand on Steve's chest to try to push him a little but without any success. She couldn't breathe, he was being too intense on sucking her tongue.

Steve then was no longer acting like a gentleman. He slid his hands down to Natasha's back. He gripped the collar of Natasha's leather uniform and simply tore it all up in front.

Steve moved his lips away from Natasha's, so he could see her body.

Natasha was surprised and at the same time she was feeling horny about Steve's reaction.

Steve lowered the sleeves of her uniform, but for being very tight, Steve was having difficulty on removing it, so he ripped her uniform again.

Natasha threw back her head to straighten her hair, then she smile and put her hands on Steve's chest.

N: Easy, Rogers.

Steve was breathing heavily as if he had run a marathon. Natasha stepped away from Steve and turned on the lights of that place.

Now Steve could see Natasha. He wanted to run up to her and finish tearing her clothes off, but he's still a gentleman.

Natasha walked back to Steve, she grabbed a chair and put it behind Steve. She walked in front of him and put her hands on Steve's shoulders and pulled him down, making him sit on the chair.

Steve didn't take his eyes off Natasha's breasts.

Natasha gave one step back, just to finish removing her uniform. Natasha approached Steve's chair and made him tilt his head back. Natasha made Steve keep his legs close and she stood next do him, with his legs between hers.

Natasha looked at Steve and he automatically began to spread kisses all over Natasha's belly. Natasha sat on Steve's legs and let Steve run his tongue over her nipples. Natasha let out a sigh as she felt Steve's greedy tongue touching her breast.

Natasha placed her hand at the back of Steve's neck and then laid her hands on his face, moving his face up so she could kiss him again.

Natasha opened the belt and the button of Steve's pants. She lowered the zipper of his pants, without removing her lips from his mouth.

Natasha glanced at Steve's cock quickly, he was already more than ready for her, and he was not wearing underwear.

Natasha stood up a little and sat on Steve's cock. Steve seemed to have stepped into another dimension when he felt his cock dipped in Natasha. He didn't even do anything, he stood still as Natasha started to move her body up and down on his cock.

Natasha slid her lips to Steve's ear and she bit the tip of his ear, then she let out some groans in his ear. Steve couldn't stand it for long, it was too much pressure, too much pleasure, he came in half an hour later.

Steve was immediately embarrassed by this and by the fact that he didn't take off before he came.

Natasha was smiling and having fun with Steve losing control.

Natasha gave a peck on Steve's lips and then she leaned her forehead against his, while he was trying to recover.

S: I'm... I'm sorry.

N: For what?

S: It was very fast. I didn't mean it.

Natasha shook her head.

N: It was perfect.

S: It was not... I don't think you... You... Did you... You know... Did you come?

N: Hm... No, I did not.

Steve looked away, frustrated. Natasha inclined her head and made him look at her again. Natasha was smiling and stroking his face.

N: But don't worry, you're still going to make me cum lots of times. You just need to practice, and I'm a good teacher.

Steve went completely red again.

S: Does that mean we'll do it again?

N: Why not?

Natasha shrugged and got up. She dress her uniform again. Well part of the uniform that lasted.

N: Give me your shirt.

Steve looked at her blankly.

N: I can't leave here with my boobs out.

S: Oh, yes, I'm sorry.

N: Stop apologizing.

Steve took off his shirt and handed it to Natasha who dressed with it and looked at Steve again.

N: You didn't answer me.

S: What?

N: How long have you wanted this?

S: Hm... Long time.

N: Why didn't you say anything then?

S: I don't know, I was afraid that you would laugh at me if I declared myself.

Natasha shook her head, she approached Steve and gave him another peck on the lips.

Natasha looked into Steve's eyes.

N: Are you in love with me?

Steve nodded and Natasha smiled.

N: Good.

Natasha activated the secret passage again and left.

Steve didn't understand if Natasha's reaction was good or bad.

Steve left the secret passageway and Natasha closed the passage. Sam appeared in the hallway and looked at Steve without a shirt and Natasha in Steve's shirt, he frowned and looked at Steve, then at Natasha, then at Steve again and then at Natasha.

Sam started to laugh and shook his head.

Sam: It was about time!!!

N: I agree.

Clint appeared in the hallway too and looked at Steve, Sam, and Natasha.

C: Hey... Steve lost his virginity?

S: I was not a virgin.

N: Yes, you were.

Steve looked at Natasha in shock. Natasha raised an eyebrow and shrugged. She walked and disappeared into the hall.

Sam hugged and shoved Steve.

Sam: My man!!! That's right. Tell everything to your friend here.

S: Sam... There's nothing to tell.

Sam: Of course there, Clint and I want to know everything.

C: Ewww not me... I don't. I don't want to know. Natasha is like my sister, and I don't want to have to punch your face, Steve.

Steve looked at Clint in surprise.

Sam pushed Steve, making him walk with him and forced Steve to tell him everything and Sam gave Steve some tips, which made him very uncomfortable with that conversation.

Steve said good-bye to Sam and went to his bedroom.

Steve opened the door and as he entered, he saw the light from the bathroom and the sound of shower water.

Steve closed the door of the room and took his shield from the table, he approached the bathroom door and entered abruptly.

Natasha closed the tap and frowned. She stepped out of the shower area and wrapped herself in Steve's towel.

S: I didn't know it was you.

N: You took too long, if it was an enemy, you would be dead by now.

S: I'm glad it's not.

Natasha walked by Steve and went back to the room, she let the towel fall and she turned to look at Steve, she was completely naked.

N: I said that you need to practice.

Steve looked at her in confusion.

S: But we just... Are we going to do that again? Like now?

Natasha laid on bed and raised her eyebrow.

N: Only if you interested...

Steve dropped the shield immediately and ran to the bed.

...Current time...

N: Wow!

S: Yeah... It was pretty intense.

N: Well, I can say that I have a master's degree. I taught you very well.

S: You're always so convinced...

N: Prove that I'm wrong...

Steve smiled and shook his head.

Natasha lay down on the couch and looked at Steve. She broke the smile and slowly brought her face closer to Steve's.

Natasha placed her lips against Steve's lips very gently, giving him a short kiss. Steve closed his eyes and opened again, as Natasha moved her lips away. The two remained staring into each other's eyes and they didn't notice that their faces began to move toward each other again.
