You clutch your head as you wake up the next morning. The sun bright in your eyes causing you to squint, you rub your eyes, realising you are not in your bedroom. You look around and see everyone passed out all around the living room. Wanda was on the couch opposite you laying her head on Steve, her mouth was slightly open, you think she was drooling, you smiled at her, despite the drool she was definitely a cute sleeper. Thor had taken up the floor in between the sofas, using a pillow to rest his head on, and Peter had his head resting on your shoulder. You looked down and saw Nat had her feet resting on your lap, you look at where she is fast asleep, you eyes glance at her lips, which are pouted in her sleep, she looks peaceful. You slowly raised you wrist and looked at the time on your watch, '6am'.

With the smell of alcohol, and the sun starting to seep through the windows, you weren't sure you would be able to get back to sleep here. You gently lifted Nat's feet off your lap, shifting Peter and resting him against the arm of the chair. You looked around the room until you found a blanket, you laid it over Nat before heading off. You thought about going to bed, but the banging in your head was too much, and you found yourself down at the swimming pool. Nothing like jumping into a cold pool to cure a hangover you thought. You got your swim stuff from your room and headed back down to the pool, as you were turning the corner you slammed into someone, you both hit heads with each other,

"That's one way to make the hangover worse" Yelena said rubbing her head,

"Ah y/n, what are you doing awake? - " she laughed,

"-I thought you would have been dying a death" and with that she left, her laughter following her as she walked away,

You made your way down to the pool and got changed into your swimming suit, you dipped your toe into the freezing cold, and thought about not going in,

"1... 2... 3..." you jump as soon as you say 3, that always works you said to yourself. Once you resurfaced you heard a voice,

"Why did you count?" you look up to where the voice came from, Nat?

"You were fast asleep when I left you" you looked at her with confusion,

"Y/n I am a trained assassin, I always sleep with one eye open" she teased, you got hot thinking that she probably saw you looking for a blanket to put over her, embarrassing.

"So, am I your new target or do you always stalk the newcomers" you laughed, Natasha just looked at you before jumping into the pool, you ducked as she dived over you,

"So, hangover cure?" You nodded in response to her question,

"Don't the clothes weigh you down?" You asked looking at Nat who just jumped into the pool in last night's clothes,

"Are you trying to get me to undress y/n?" Nat asked with eyebrows raised, making her way closer to you, your cheeks flushed red at the comment, and you couldn't get your words out to respond,

"I will take that as a yes" the red head smirked at you while you tried to keep yourself composed,

"So, why did you count before jumping?"

"Oh, you caught that. It was just something me and my friend did back home, usually before we did something stupid" you laughed, remembering all the trouble you got in back home with them, Nat smiled at you while you recounted the some of the stories that you and y/f/n (your friend's name) had got into back home. You found yourself going in-between stories and going off track, but Natasha didn't seem to mind as laughed along to the stories.

"So yeah, that's how we ended up half way across the island in Ibiza at 5am in some fancy hotel room drinking vodka with some girls from London" you laughed remembering, you got sad thinking that you've left your friends behind, Nat seemed to notice as she moved closer to you, she put her hand on your waist under the water,

"All good?" she asked while looking into your eyes, in one swift move, you dunked her under the water,

"Never let your enemy catch you by surprise" you say laughing while she's resurfacing,

"You are gonna pay" you looked at how serious she was, and made a break for it trying to swim away, as if you were going to get away from a trained Russian assassin, Natasha caught up to you pretty quick, dragging your leg back so you could face her,

"Any last words?" she says in a Russian accent, your faces now closer to together than before, her green eyes piercing into yours, you felt the fireflies in your stomach,

"1, 2, 3" you said quickly, you closed the distance between you two, and pressed your lips against hers, you could feel her surprise, and just when you were about to pull away, her hands found the side of your face, and she gently kissed you back, she pulled away from your lips, keeping her hands on your face, you stared at her in shock, and she looked back at you the same way. She pulled you closer again, but before you could close the distance,

"- Guys should I ask for Tony to change the web shooters on my iron suit" Peter came walking in moving his wrists to get a better look at them, you and Nat quickly fell out of the moment and turned to face Peter,

"Am I interrupting something he asks?"

"No, you aren't" you reply quickly, not wanting him to know what just happened,

"Then why does Nat look like she's going to kill me?" he asks, fear in his eyes, you laugh at him and turn to see Nat narrowing her eyes at him, you pull her towards the ladder out of the pool, you both head upstairs to shower and change, Nat walks towards her room, instead of yours,

"Are you not showering in my room, I thought your shower was broken?" you ask, slightly disappointed,

"Nat, is your shower broken? -" Bruce asked coming out of his own room,

"- you know you have to report those things to me or Friday when they happen" Bruce says while walking down the stairs, you turn back to face Nat, but she has already disappeared, interesting...

Okay, super short chapter, but I am updating with Chapter 10 tonight and it will be longer :)
