Safe with me

Part 8

I woke up at 6 am and Nat was no where to be found I looked in the training room, her bathroom the main room nothing. I started panicking and calling her phone but she must have left it at home, which means she's little because big Nat always took her phone. Did she freak out and run away again? Maybe she felt guilty? I went to go see if Wanda was awake but I saw a note taped to the door.

'ask Ted I wuv u- Nat.' Ask Ted? That's adorable yet annoying. I decided to call Wanda. 'Hey Wands where are you? Where's Nat?!' 'Oh Nat was bored and hungry so I took her out for breakfast. Nat honey I told you to leave a note so y/n didn't worry.' I heard her talking in the background. 'I did I 'ut on da door.' 'you talk to y/n so they know you're okay.' She passed the phone to Nat. 'Hewwo y/n... I lef' you note I used my fa'vwit cwayon.' 'Bub it just says ask Ted.' I sighed. 'Well did you?' I let out a small chuckle. 'Just have fun and be good okay Bub put Wanda back on.' 'Hey y/n I'm sorry I should've checked what she wrote but we're eating waffles I got one for you too so don't make anything.' 'Nats little in public?' She doesn't even like the others seeing her. 'Oh no we're eating in the car I went i the drive through speaking off I have to go but we'll see you in half an hour.'

Nat POV

I had lots of fun with Wanda, she bought me waffles and let me have Nutella and whipped cream  on it, she made me have fruit with it but I didn't mind to much I love strawberries and bananas. Wanda even let me pick the music on the way home. When we got back y/n was asleep on the couch Wanda told me to be gentle I wanted to give them a big dramatic hug but I settled for a snuggle instead. 'Hey cuddle monkey. How was the waffles?' 'Nummy.' I was about to speak again when I heard the text alert from y/n's phone they sat up to check letting go of their baby. 'Who is it?' I didn't like whoever it was, they took away from my cuddle time. 'It's nothing important Bub it's just a friend.' they replied as they texted their 'friend' back, well I'm more important than a stupid friend. 'I impowtant!' I slapped the phone away. 'Bub don't do that, that's mean. You wouldn't like it if I slapped Ted like that would you.' They scolded I shook my head still enraged. 'I think someone's a little green.' Wanda chuckled so did y/n. 'Where 'ulk?' Y/n laughed 'no Bub it means jealous hulk isn't here.'

'I'm not jealous!' I crossed my arms. 'Okay so you don't mind If I just..' they went back to texting. I let out a whine. 'What's wrong Bub?' They asked innocently I rolled my eyes and grabbed the phone putting it in my pocket. 'Nuh uh mine.' I cuddled into their chest. 'Baby I need my phone give it back please.' I shook my head again. 'I impowtant.' I said almost too sadly into their neck. I didn't know why it made me so angry and sad if y/n said it was nothing I should trust them. But I felt like y/n was replacing me. I mean I deserve to be, I hurt them and I was bad but I don't want to lose them. 'I know you're important baby girl.' I melted at the name. 'You not say da 'fore.' I clung on tighter as they stood up to eat their waffle. 'You gonna let me put you down so I can eat?' I shook my head I just wanted to be held it was too comforting. 'You can watch tv.' I shook my head I just wanted cuddles. 'Aww is someone feeling clingy.' I hid my face embarrassed to be honest I was but i didn't want them to think I was annoying.

I sat on their lap as they ate breakfast, it was going great, I was getting all the cuddles and attention, well as much as I could ask for considering they were eating. Until the phone buzzed again. 'Okay give me my phone now you've had your fun.' I giggled and covered my pocket. 'Natasha I'm not playing with you, give me my phone.' I shook my head and started sucking my thumb through a mix of fear, sadness and a hope it would make the situation better.....it didn't. 'Baby being cute is not changing my mind I need my phone, besides you no you're not supposed to do that it's yucky. So stop it.' I shook my head and carried on they lifted me off their lap onto the chair next to them. 'I told you to stop and you didn't listen you can sit on my lap when you stop being naughty.' After they were done they turned to me. 'Are you going to listen to me now?' I tried to speak but my thumb blocking most of the sound. They went to pull my hand away but I slapped theirs instead.  'Hey you do not hit your in big trouble young lady.' I hopped of the chair, put their phone on the table and ran towards my room but heard the chair screech behind me so I ran faster, locked my door behind me, threw myself onto my bed and hid under the duvet.

'Nat open the door.' Y/n called from the other side I tried to cover my ears but it didn't really work. 'Baby if you don't open the door by the time I count to three you will be banned from tv for two days and this time you will sleep alone. 1.... 2' I darted out of bed and opened the door as they said two.

Y/n POV
When Nat opened the door her hair was messed up from the duvet her eyes were red and full of tears her hoodie was twisted and she was shaking violently she remembered something from her past, I could tell she always had this pained look in her eye after she did. I didn't say anything but just picked her up and pulled her into a hug, she burst into tears. 'Shh it's okay Bub. I'm here it's okay.' She didn't stop crying so I carried her to the bed and sat down pulling her onto my lap she cried inconsolably until she started struggling to breathe. 'Baby can you take deep breaths with me.' I exaggerated my breathing so she could copy she started to calm down. 'Sowwy.' More tears threatened to fall I could see how bad she felt.

'It's okay can you tell me why you did it?' She only had to say one word. 'Mine.' She wrapped her arms around my neck in a tight hug. 'I can't even have friends?' 'Mhm' 'I can?' She loosened her grip nodded and pointed a finger into her chest. 'Only you can be my friend? What about Wanda and the avengers?' She rolled her eyes but nodded. 'Am I allowed a more than a friend?' She gave me a horrified angry look before rolling her eyes and hugging me again. 'You know you don't need to be jealous you will always be my favourite person. 'Why were you crying baby?' She didn't say anything put poked a finger into my chest. 'What did I do to upset you?' I asked genuinely whatever it was I now hated myself for it. 'You say I in big t'wuble.' 'What do you mean baby?' 'Bad 'eople.' I could tell I wasn't going to get anything more than that I was just frustrating her because I didn't understand. I just gave her hugs and comfort till settled and I went back out to see Wanda.

'She said I scared her.' I almost cried at the thought. 'Maybe she was just scared you was going to take away her tv time or something. She was probably just upset and confused about all the emotions. But who's this "friend" you were texting?' 'You know I already have a jealous Nat I don't need a jealous Wanda on my back too.' Wanda tilted her head. 'I'm not jealous.' I laughed. 'Yeah your hands say otherwise.' I gesture to her hands which are glowing. 'By the way I need you to babysit Nat I'm going on a date tonight.' I teased Wanda rolled her eyes. 'Fine. Let's talk about something else.' 'Aw seriously guys it was just getting interesting.' Tony smirked as he entered. 'You two are being awfully flirty.' I rolled my eyes. 'Way to make it obvious Stark.' 'Yeah we were just messing around.' Wanda agreed. 'But seriously who were you texting?' 'Mike we were planning a play date thing for the littles.' 'Okay that's adorable.' Wanda cooed. 'Ooooh who's Miiike?' Tony sang. 'A friend who's way to old for me, is already in a relationship and has two littles of his own.'  'I mean that could still work.... Is he rich?' I scoffed and turned away.

(TW) past trauma, talks of abuse/ violence
'Hey guys.' Nat walked in grabbed a bottle of water then headed back to her room. 'Hey Nat can I talk to you?' Nat paused 'yeah sure.. I guess.' 'What did you mean when you said about me scaring you when I said you was in big trouble?' She shifted nervously and rubbed her arm. 'Oh uh that's what they used to say when I did something bad then they'd uh hurt me a lot so yeah I just thought of that it made me feel like I was running from them, I was back there and uh it really scared me.' 'I'm sorry I made you think of that. I'd never even think of hurting you I just meant like a timeout or no tv or something. I'm sorry I won't use that phrase anymore.' She smiled and gave me a quick 'thank you' and a hug before finishing off some paperwork.
