The Other Widow -Avenger's Soulmate Story

Chapter 17- Warming up

"Let go of me!" I yell as Steve hoists me up over his shoulders

I try to move but he has a iron grip on me

He only has to use one arm to to hold my legs down on his chest

He continues walking as I squirm around but its no use

Stupid fucking super soldier

"Let me go you bloody wanker!" I say resorting to pounding on his back

"You sound just like Peg" he says chuckling a little to himself

"Oh you mean the woman who my mother tried to kill for years" I say trying to catch him off guard

He slows his steps and I see my chance

I use all my strength to to push my hands on his back to lift my chest up

His hands are loose enough for me to slide down but he tightened his arm again as my waist made it to his grip

He was holding me to his side with one arm while I was leaning back trying to move like a fussy child, my legs dangling due to the height difference

"Nice try" Steve says slightly annoyed before putting me over his shoulder again

I keep struggling but give up when I get tired

How big is this bloody tower?

We've been walking for well over 5 minutes

With my head dangling I start to feel dizzier

"Steve" I say quietly trying to bring my head up

"What is it" He asks

"Can you let me down?" I ask calmly

"So you can try to run away again? I don't think so" he says

"No actually, it's just that I'm getting quite dizzy" I mumble as the blood continues to rush to my head

"shit" he says worried

He pulls my lower half a little so I'm not dangling over his shoulder

Instead he pulls me so I'm face to face with him and wraps my legs around his waist while he holds under my bottom with one hand

"I'm so sorry doll. I totally forgot that the concussion makes you dizzy" He says staring at my face which was all flushed now

I just mumble an 'It's ok' as I continue to lay my face in his neck

This man has punched several times and tazzed me too

Why don't I feel the urge to kick his balls?

I mean I do, but something is stopping me from doing it

If anyone asked I would say because I was feeling tired, when in reality I just liked being this close to him

What was even more surprising was that he was letting me

The one person who has made it very clear that I'm not to be trusted or liked

He showed me affection?

And even called me Doll?

Maybe it's just the concussion but it doesn't seem like he hates as much anymore

Feelings and affection... barf

After a few minutes I open my eyes to see that we're in the med bay

He puts me down on one of the beds as Bruce come over to me

"I told you already, I'm fine" I say after Bruce checks me

"Here take these. They should help with the dizziness" He says handing me a couple of pills
