Finding You

Part 5

Steve's pov.

Steve: But I'm in love with you.
I said when she left me, but I couldn't just let her leave after everything that happened. I didn't know how to go after her, the thought that she might not fell for me, frightened me.

Steve: Natasha please open the door. I knocked loudly, I begged her.

Natasha: I can't... I'm sorry. I could hear her crying.
Steve: Nat, I'm gonna wait here until you open this door. There was long pause before any of us said anything. I could hear her breathing, it was getting faster as every second passed.

Steve: Natasha, please don't leave me, why are you doing this? My voice cracked, I started sobbing.

Natasha: Steve, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have done that, I'm... so... sorry. Her cry become louder and she had troubles with talking. I didn't want to hurt your feelings. I don't deserve you. She raised her voice, but the weakness in it was greater than her will to push me away, soon I heard her coming to the door.

Steve: Nat, can you please stop with your prejudices about yourself, you deserve so much more than you allow yourself. I put my hands on the door, I wanned to touch her, to hug her, just too feel her in my embrace.

Steve: How can you say that you don't deserve me? I was so dispirited, my hope was already lost.

Natasha: Steve, I'm a monster. She spoke with bitterness. Heartless, cruel monster who can't allow herself to fall in love with someone like you. She leaned her head on the door, her lifeless voice, the sound of her cry, only God knows how heartbroken was I in that moment.

Natasha: Everyone that I ever loved, are dead beacuse of me. I can't ruin your pure soul...If you ever get hurt beacuse of me... She took a breath before she continued.
If you die beacuse of me... I won't forgive myself. So please leave.

Steve: I'm dying every moment that I'm spending without you, Nat. My head leaned against the door, I tears forming in my eyes.

Natasha: Why do I mean so much to you? She said in between her sobs.

I step away from the door, slowly I started moving back. Then in one moment I stopped, my head straightened up.

Steve: Beacuse... Natasha I love you. I finally said it, out loud, enough so she could hear me. I kept waiting in front her apartment. I couldn't hear any movement or any reaction. She didn't do anything, she didn't come out. I expected anything but this, I looked down dissapointed.

Natasha's pov.

I shocked my head, my view become blurry, then I let long breath and smile with it. I smiled, from ear to ear. I put my hand on my mouth and then I realized that I'm still inside my room and Steve is out... waiting for me.

I opened the door, but I didn't move. I forgot how to breathe, how to move. I was lost in his ocean eyes. What I just heard took my breath away. His eyes screamed how much was his heart hurted. How much he loved me, tear fall down his cheek.

Steve: I told you thousand times, I don't care who you were. He came closer to me. If you want me to go beacuse you don't feel anything for me I will go. I will never even look at you the way I want to, I won't touch the way I want to, I won't force you to do anything. I promise...Do you want me to stay?

Tears running down my cheeks, I started nodding slowly, then smile grow on my face and I run to him, I jumped in his arms, hugging him so tight. My head on his shoulder, his head dug in my hair. Smelling his fragrance I relaxed, he kissed my neck, smelling my fragrance. I wanted to feel him, as much as he did. We stayed like that for some time, then I moved back to look him in the eyes.

Natasha: You'll have to excuse me sometimes... No one ever loved me before.

Steve: You'll get used to it. You will be loved as long as I live, I promise. His look filled my body with hope and my heart with love.

My hand caressing his cheek, slowly our lips meet in a dream-worthy kiss. This kiss was so soft, so pure that give my body chills. My hands around his neck, he held my back. Then we parted to take a breath, but kept our foreheads resting on each others shoulders.

Natasha: I know now... I whispered in his ear then moved a step back, but he kept his arms around me. I touched his cheek and then kissed it.

"Steven Grant Rogers I love you with my whole heart and I promise that I will love you for eternity." I happily said.
