I'll Always Love You - A Romanogers Fanfic

8

The morning goes by without Natasha nor Steve mentioning the nightmare, or waking up completely intertwined in each other's limbs.
They agree on a way to tie up the loose ends over breakfast, pack their things as they aren't going to make it back to the hotel and leave.

STEVE'S POV

We get in the car after checkout.
I'm driving and Natasha is sitting and transferring the data from the trackers to her extra phone so we can track the HYDRA agents while we're around the city. We have a S.H.I.E.L.D car close behind us to bring the agents we catch to a place where they can't harm anyone.

"Two thirds are at some school facility just outside the city and then the last third have spread all around the city" she says after successfully transferring everything to her phone.
I look at the screen real quick.
"Why a school?" I ask.
She shrugs. "Wait!" She suddenly says.
"What?" I ask.
"There's one just down here" she says and points out of the window down a side alley.

"That wasn't so hard" she says when we get back in the car.
"Sure wasn't, I just stood there" I say and turns on the engine and starts driving to our next location.
"This is my time soldier, I was trained to take out guys like these" she says.
"Of course" I say with a grin, and for a second I stop thinking about why I haven't asked about the nightmares.
She chuckles and her green eyes are sparkling.
"So, what were those nightmares about?" I finally build up the courage to ask.
She immediately turns cold and just turn to the other side without saying anything.

———————————————

After a couple of hours Captain Rogers and Agent Romanoff have caught all the tracked HYDRA agents, and are now walking around a university looking for the last two that shows up on their monitor.
They hear whisper from a few students that seem to recognize them despite of them being in disguise, but they keep walking.

"Stop" Natasha whispers and holds back Steve when she spots the agents.
"Why is there only one agent, why does the monitor show two dots?" Steve whispers confused to Natasha.

"The husband, he's the real leader! Shit!" she whispers as the other dot turns around and reveal the face of the husband.
"Language" Steve says out of habit. Natasha rolls her eyes at him.
"They're coming, kiss me. Public display of affection makes people uncomfortable, remember?" Natasha says as she turns around and look him dead serious in the eyes.

Steve presses his lips against Natasha's the second the two HYDRA guys pass them speaking French glaring uncomfortably at the two young people making out in public.
They keep kissing until it seems natural to stop, and Natasha grabs her guns as soon as Steve's lips have left hers.

NATASHA'S POV

I look around to see if anyone's around, before I fire both guns at the same time at the two guys. Different aim.
I plant a shot perfectly in the back of the HYDRA agents head and the boss perfectly behind his knee causing him to fall over.
"I'll grab the corpse, you take care of that guy" Steve orders without even questioning the fact that I just killed a guy in broad daylight. My judgment told me it was for the better, I excuse myself to me.

We approach the fallen, and Steve puts his hat on the agents head to hide the wound and stop the blood from dripping.
"I really thought you were innocent" I say and kick the husband. He groans in pain. "You're not so good at what you're doing, huh? He asks scornfully. I kick him again, harder this time, and pick him up.
"Walk" I say hardly and pull him up from the floor with my loaded gun to his back.
He starts walking, but with a suspicious smirk on his face.

"Nat!" Steve yells to me when about seven agents enters the big hallway.
I look around. Groups of seven HYDRA agents walks in from each entrance.
I knock the leader unconscious, he can't die because we need answers.
Steve has already knocked down four agents by throwing the dead one in their face, and I grab my electric widow bites and electrocute an entire group.

———————————————

Steve is missing his shield, but easily manage to use a plaque from the wall as one.
With the bronze platter he leaves five agents with bad concussions after two single hits.
Natasha gets on the shoulders of a guy, strangling him with her legs, and another one with her ropes at the same time.
Steve throws punches and snatches a gun after knocking one out.
He doesn't have quite as good an aim as Natasha but he easily shoots a new group of people, seemingly the last group.

When all the agents are either hanging from the ceiling, choked, shot or electrocuted Steve throws his gun on the floor and sigh.

He throws the still unconscious leader over his shoulder when the doors are slammed open.
A woman enters, alone.
"Avengers" she scoffs with disgust.
It's the woman they heard yesterday Natasha thinks when she recognizes her voice.

Steve moves so he's next to Natasha, and covers them with the plaque.
She chuckles. "I'm not going to kill you, I want you on my team" she says.
"Never" Steve says.
"I'm smarter than Fury" she says sweetly.
"No" Natasha just says.
"Oh really?" She asks sarcastically. "Then how did I make him and you two believe those morons were the leaders?" She says.
That's it for Natasha. In the blink of an eye the HYDRA leader is on the floor moaning in pain with two symmetrical shot wounds on her abdomen.
"You're not quicker than us" Natasha whispers scornfully as she bows down and tie her arms up before dragging her towards the door.
Steve throws the fake leader on the floor. He's probably dead from the lack of blood anyways.

"Good Job" Agent Hill says and grab her when Captain Rogers and Agent Romanoff has brought the unconscious woman to the Quinjet.
She's thrown in a cell and is locked up and everyone takes their seat.

There's silence on the short flight.
The only interaction is Agent Hill passing a file on the mission to Natasha.
Natasha checks it out and shows it to Steve.

"I assume more details will come tomorrow?"Natasha asks as they land after just an hour of flying.
"Yes, there will, but you're off for tonight" Hill says.
"Great" They both say in unison.

Steve and Natasha nod to goodbye and leave the Quinjet, when it's landed safely on the nice warm evening in Malaga, Spain.
