Un-breakable

Sleeping arrangements

And then I felt the smallest little squeeze

My eyes lit up. I half expected Nat to wake up, but after watching her for a few minutes I knew she wasn't going to. But still as I scanned her injuries thoughts rushed through my head. Had someone done this to her? I stared at her once more but only for a second, before the door burst open.
A man who was Natasha's father walked in worry etched all over his face. I left the room to give them some time alone, but still I stood just outside her door. Food sounded really good but I was to tired to go get any, it was after midnight after all.
A scream made me burst into Natasha's room. She sat up eyes wide and she pushed her body to the opposite edge of the bed. From her own father.

"Get away from me!"
She didn't notice me enter the room.

"Natasha- "
Her father tried to say

"No! You did this."
She said looking down at her body. My instincts kicked in and I pushed myself between her and her father.

"Steve.... "
she whispered knowing I'd heard what she had been saying.
Her dad stared at me innocently. I didn't know what to think. I thought someone had done this to her but I still didn't know who....

"Natasha you don't know what your saying, maybe you should get some rest"
She stayed silent most likely because I was there. She just nodded her head.

Mr. Romanoff left and I sat in the edge of Natasha's bed. She didn't look at me.

"Nat?"
Her emerald eyes glances my way.

"Natasha did he do this to you?"
She didn't move for a while before

Shaking her head.
I let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding. But her words still stuck in my head. You did this. I didn't ask her who she thought her dad was or question her outburst.
Her eyes were glossed over and she tried to hide a tear.
I wrapped my arms around her, holding her tight. She didn't react at first, but then she melted into the embrace, wrapping her arms around my neck. Pulling away I sat back in the uncomfortable chair in her room.

"Sleep now, we can talk more in the morning."
She didn't take much convincing, or so I thought. Her red hair sprawled out on the pillow but her eyes didn't close.

"Natasha? What's wrong?"
I asked sitting on her bed once again.

She hesitated before she breathed
"I'm scared"

"Nat no one is going to hurt you. You can go back to your dad soon."
She flinched the word " dad ".
But she reluctantly nodded anyway. I stared to get up but a small hand caught my wrist in an almost desperate grip.
I turned to face Natasha's puffy red eyes.

"Will you sleep with me?"
The question definitely startled me. But without another thought I climbed in bed with her. It was definitely not made for two people, but we managed to get comfortable. Natasha's head was on my shoulder as she faced me. I lay on my back, my arm protectively around her.

This is to make her feel safer
I kept telling myself
But I couldn't help but stare at her. Her bright emerald eyes, and fiery hair. Her perfect skin was soft and her smile -even though was non existent right now- was still able to light up any room.

This is just to make her feel safer

Hey guys! Sorry it has been a while since I updated but summer has been packed. I just got back from a cottage just to go away again!😂 so any chapter that I write for both books will have to be published sometime next week. Hopefully if not I will update I promise
