Her Secret Agent

Seven

Natasha's Pov

All i could do was watch as Clint carried his lifeless sisters body to the jet with me close behind him. Tony and Peter said they would stay behind with the captured Hydra agent's while waiting for Furys' arrival to take them to a secure location. I was such a fool to deny the bond i have with Emerald because now i may never get a chance to make things right with her.

I can't take my eyes off her as Clint lays her down on the gerny and straps her in for the flight home. I sat beside her the whole flight back to the tower, and as I said, my eyes stayed glued to her the whole time. I may look like a tough Russian assassin, but right now, on the inside, i'm a mushy emotional mess because yet again, i ruin something good before i even had a chance to have it.

As soon as the jet lands, Clint pushes the gerny towards the medical room so we can get Emerald the help she needs, and i walk in front of him opening all the doors so we don't make her body jolt around. Clint is looking at me worriedly while also looking at his sister with the same worry and anxiousness in his eyes.

When we get to the medical room, Clint pushes me out of the room telling me to stay out, and all i can do is pace the corridor waiting for any type of news. The rest of the team arrived one after the other, and they all leaned against the wall, staying out of my way as i continued to pace up and down.

"It's not like she's dead." Loki said, chuckling

"What did you just say!?" I said, stopping dead in my tracks glaring at him

"She's not dead lady spider. Why are we all standing here?" He said, sounding amused yet confused

"We are here because she is family!" Peter snapped before i could speak

"You might be a god, but you ever even joke about Emerald not being dead again. i will kill you!" I hiss out angrily, clenching my hands into fists

"Natasha, don't." Clint said, walking out the medical room

"How is she?" I asked, not giving anyone a chance to speak

"She's being treated for the gunshot wound, but it turns out she was grazed by a lot of bullets in the basement while trying to get to you and Tony. The nurses and Bruce are treating her the best they can. We just have to wait for Bruce to inform us of her condition." He said, rubbing his face, looking exhausted

"More waiting?" Peter asked worriedly

"Yes, kid. More waiting but if you want to you can wait with me." I said, knowing Emerald would want me to keep him close and safe

"Yes, please." He said, moving closer to me

"Everyone else leave. Just me, Natasha and Peter." Clint ordered without leaving room for complaints

I watched them all leave, then finally sit down on a plastic chair against the wall, and Peter sat on a chair next to me.

"Did you know?" Peter asked Clint

"Know what?" Clint replied, confused

"About Emerald's past." He said, looking at me and Clint

"We knew nothing." I said coldly

"But i bet you anything kid that Fury knew." Clint said, looking angry

"She went through so much." He said, getting emotional

"We know, but all we can do now is help her through all this. We have to be someone she can lean on. We can't pressure her to tell us anything. She has to come to us when she is ready." I said softly

"Do you think she will come to us?" He asked curiously

"I know my sister, and yes, when she is ready, she will come to us, but we have to wait until she is ready. Going through a loss like that will make her close herself away to protect herself." Clint explained

"Peter, enough with the questions, why don't you lay down and get some sleep. You have had a long day." I said softly

"You're right. I'm pretty sleepy." He said, laying down across the seats and putting his head on my lap.

"Get some sleep, kid. We will stay here." Clint said, putting his leather jacket over him

The talking stops as Clint and I just stare at the medical room door, waiting for any time of movement or news about Emerald. I feel my chest get tighter and tighter as well as my breathing getting heavier and heavier with every minute that goes by.

That's when i remember what Clint said to be the other day. I close my eyes and accept the soulmate bond because i know Emeralds body can't focus on healing while it's in pain from me not accepting the bond. I open my eyes, feeling a swirl of emotions that aren't my own, then this pain travels through my body to my stomach. I hunch forward, clenching my stomach gasping, and then i gently move Peter's head and jump up out my seat, rush into the medical room.

"Bruce, stop whatever you are doing and give her pain medication right now!" I snapped still cluchong my stomach

"She is unconscious Natasha. She can not feel a thing." He answered without stopping

"I'm her soulmate, and I'm feeling her pain, so give her some damn pain medication, or i will kill someone and do it, my damn self!" I demanded not hiding my emotions

"Nurse, get the morphine!." Her ordered seeing the emotions on my face

"Natasha, come on. Bruce will give her the pain medication, but we need to leave them to finish what they are doing." Clint said form behind me and gently pulls me out of the room

When I'm back in the corridor, i start pacing again, and this time, i don't stop because i can feel everything my Emerald is feeling, and it's making me feel more and more anxious. Clint tells me to go change out my mission suit multiple times, but i don't because I'm not leaving Emerald ever again.
