"Mommy, wake up" Evan shouted as he jumped up and down on his mother's bed smiling

Natasha groaned and shifted in her bed before opening her eyes slowly and smiling up at her baby boy.

He smiled back at her "good morning"

"Good morning" she said back softly before looking at the clock, she groaned noticing what time it was "we better get going, I have to drop you off at Uncle Clint's house still"

Evan smile widened, he nodded and quickly ran to his room to get dressed and ready to leave as Natasha did the same. After a hour they both went out the door and made their way to Clint's house.

"Hey buddy" Clint greeted as he walked outside seeing Evan and Natasha in his front yard

Evan ran up to him and gave him a big hug "morning Uncle Clint" he greeted with a smile

"Morning kid" Clint greeted back as he ruffled Evans hair

Evan giggled

"Evan, why don't you come inside and play with Lila and Copper" Laura suggested as she walked outside, Evan smiled and went running towards the door

Once Evan was inside Clint turned his attention to Natasha and sighed "you okay" he asked her gently

She nodded and gave him a faint smile "why wouldn't I be" she questioned lowly

"I know what today is" he replied knowingly

She sighed "yeah, well, can you watch Evan a little longer...I have something I want to do"

He gave her a small smile and nodded "of course"

"Thank you" she said

He shook his head "he's my nephew, you don't have to thank me for being an uncle"

She chuckled, kissed his cheek and bid her goodbye, waving to him as she got in her car and drove off. Once at the dance studio, Natasha was shocked to see a huge line out the door for lessons, she took a deep breath before making her way inside the building.

"Thought you might need this" Maria said as she walked up to Natasha with two cups of coffee in her hands

Natasha sighed in relief and took the cup "thank you, your a life saver, I'm gonna need this if I'm going to get through this line" she said as she motioned twords the huge line

Maria chuckled and sat down beside her

After a few hours, they were down to their last few clients "just a few more to go" Natasha told herself as she continued to play with her pen

"Name" Maria asked as a tall muscular, blue eyed, blonde haired man walked up to the front desk

"Steve Rogers" he replied

'That voice sounds so familiar' Natasha thought she looked up from her paper and gave him a friendly smile, 'he's cute- no Natasha get your head out of the gutter, you know what happened last time' she reminded herself "welcome to Dancing web" she said politely

"Thank you" a soft squeaky voice said, Natasha looked down to see a little girl with dirty blonde hair and ocean blue eyes, smiling at her

Natasha gave her a friendly smile "and what's your name" she asked

"Lizzie, what's yours" the little girl replied with a huge smile on her face

Natasha smiled back "Natasha" she replied
