Post Civil War:

My mom lays beside me in my bed as she can't sleep anywhere else in the house with the stress of knowing my dad is in a high level prison.

I stare at the ceiling not being able to get a wink of sleep.

Nat should be calling soon. She always updates me every day. I haven't heard from her all day and it's making me nervous

I fiddle with the remote control in my hands and my phone buzzes. I slowly slide out of bed attempting to keep my mom asleep

I step out into the hall and start to walk down the steps of the stairs. I answer and press the phone to my ear

"Nat?"

She sighs into the phone and says "Yeah. It's me. You doing alright?"

I plop onto the couch, sliding a blanket over me "Yeah. I'm alright. Where are you now?"

Nat sighs loudly and says "That's sort of complicated to explain. I'm in Russia. I can tell you that. But Secretary Ross is going to start snooping around you so be careful okay?"

"Of course. I won't tell him anything."

She huffs out a breath saying "I miss you so much."

"I miss you more. As soon as you're back from Russia find me. I am losing my mind here."

She chuckles and says "That can be arranged."

I smile and then say "Why is Tony contacting me Nat? He just sent my father to prison and he wants to talk?"

Her chuckling stops and she says "Don't tell him anything. Don't trust him right now okay? And if Steve or anyone reaches out to you, ignore them."

"Nat what happened?"

"It's a long story. I've gotta go. I'll call you soon okay?"

I nod and say "Okay.."

"I love you, moose."

"I love you more. Be careful okay?"

She smiles as she looks to Yelena and Alexei walking ahead of her. "It's not possible, I love you the most. Stay safe alright. And don't let Laura mope around. Clint will be out soon. Tony will feel the guilt soon enough. You melt that iron heart of his easily."

I laugh and say "I mean it. Be careful. No dying okay?"

"No promises on that one."

"What?!"

"I'm kidding!"

I shake my head and say "No you aren't. What are you intending to do?"
