Professor Romanoff

Chapter 43

We finish preparing dinner and Nat walks through the door. I look over at Carol and Wanda who are looking over at me. They leave, giving me a sympathetic smile.
"Where were you?" I ask in a serious tone.
"Out with Yelena, I told you." She says.
"Yelena's in Russia." I state with a saddened tone.
"How do you know-" She tries to stop herself after realising what she said.
"Where were you Natasha?" I ask.
"With Rumlow." She admits.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I ask as I raise my voice.
"I did it for you." She says, matching my volume.
"You met with a crazy guy for me?" I ask, my voice still a loud volume.
"I got rid of him for you." She says, sounding pissed.
"Y-You killed him?" I ask, my volume reaching a normal level.
"Yes. To keep you safe. In case you didn't notice, he's kidnapped you twice." She says. "I didn't tell you so you didn't come with me and get yourself in trouble." She says.
"So you're not cheating on me?" I ask, knowing the answer.
"What? Why would you think that?" She asks, lowering her volume.
"Because you lied to me about where you were." I say, looking down. "And I'm clingy." I say.
"You're not clingy. Maybe you are, but that's a good thing. I like spending time with you and making sure that you're okay. But it stings like a bitch for you to think that I would cheat on you." She says.
"I'm sorry Tasha." I say sincerely. I hug her, resting my head into her chest. She hugs back.
"Just know that I would never cheat on you. Ever." She says.
"I know. I love you Tasha." I say.
"I love you more." She says.
"Not possible." I say.

We watch TV for the remainder of the day.
"I was speaking to Dr Cho about getting you some sort of help." Nat says whilst watching the TV,
not looking at you, but continuing to stroke your hair.
"What did she say?" I ask.
"She said she could get someone for you to talk to." She says.
"Thank you for helping me." I say as I cuddle into her side under the sheets.
"Of course детка. I always want what's best for you." She says. As the episode of Brooklyn 99 ends, Nat grabs the TV controls and turns off the TV.
"One more episode pleaseee." I beg.
"We already watched 4 more than we said we would." Nat says with a light laugh.
"Yeahhhhh but it's so good." I say.
"It's late. You're clearly tired." She says as you let out a yawn.
"Pleaseeeee." I beg once more.
"Nope." She says as she repositions into a more comfortable sleeping position. I groan then position myself so that I'm more comfortable. Nat pulls me into her then kisses my forehead. "Goodnight котенок." She says quietly.
"Night Tasha." I say.

The next day I wake up to see an already awake Nat. Of course.
"Why are you always up so early?" I ask.
"Because, I like the mornings. Plus you're always up super early." She says,
"Huh.. I guess so. Not as early now. I wake up at 5:45 instead of 5 like when I was still at college." I say. "I guess because I don't go on my morning runs anymore. I miss them." I say.
"Then we should start going on them again." She suggests.
"We?" I ask.
"I'm not letting you go alone. Even if Rumlow is dead." She says.
"Okay mom." I mock in a sarcastic tone.
"Hey! I do not sound like a mom." She says.
"Sure thing." I say. I lay back into her and close my eyes.
"So that's a no to the run?" She asks.
"It's a yes. Just not today. You're warm and comfortable." I say. She laughs and kisses my head.

A few hours later me and Nat grab breakfast then train in the training room for a few hours, letting me gain more control of my powers.
"Ow. Watch the fire Y/N/N." Nat says.
"Sorry Tasha." I say sincerely as I go over to check her. I hit her in the side with a bit of fire. It's not bad, but I should get some burn cream on there. "Come on." I say as I grab her hand and drag to the medical bay.

I grab some cream and a wound dressing.
"You're pretty good with your powers now. Just not excellent." She says with an inhale of pain as I apply the cream to her burnt skin.
"Sorry." I say as I try to be quick with applying the dressing. I kiss her on the forehead then on the lips.

We go and get some lunch from the kitchen and pretty much the whole team are here.
"Hey.. what happened to you?" Tony asks Nat as he notices the room.
"Y/N/N." She states.
"You guys get into an argument?" Bruce asks. I roll my eyes dramatically as I help Nat make sandwiches.
"No. It was an accident." Nat says.
"Just like you." I whisper under my breath whilst looking at Bruce. Nat lets out a little laugh.
"это детский котенок. (eto detskiy kotenok - That's childish, kitten)" She says with an amused smirk.
"он по-детски. (on po-detskiy - He's childish)" I say.

A/N: Sorry for the shorter chapter but I'm super tired.

I had two tests today, physics and history and I have so many more this week :(

Anyway, hope you enjoyed this chapter <3

Remember to take care of yourself and have something to eat + drink <3 :)
