The Avengers Letting Go
"Clint," Natasha said, as she saw his back, which blocked her view of the enemy in front of her. When Clint fell to the ground she saw the enemy laying dead about twenty feet away. Her attention went back to her partner whom was on the ground now.
Natasha looked at Clint's wound. The bullet from the enemy's gun, it had hit it was bad. Clint wasn't going to make it. They both knew it. Natasha looked at Clint. It should have been her who took the hit, but Clint through himself in front of her.
At the moment Clint was all she cared about, this wasn't fair. He wasn't going to see his son or daughter grow up. How was she was going to cope when he was gone. Natasha dropped to his side and leaned his back up against her front side.
"Nat," Clint strained.
"Don't talk, you'll be fine," Nat lied. She didn't want to admit he was dying.
"Nat, we both know that not true." Clint admitted. Instead of answering Nat hugged
Clint gently. Tears came to her eyes.
"I am sorry."
"Don't be this isn't your fault." Clint said, as he felt her kissed the top of his head.
Natasha let the tears fall.
"I can't do this not without you."
"Nat, you have to move on. Find someone to love. Our child needs a father." Clint quietly said. Natasha froze. Clint knew she was pregnant.
"How?"
"Empty pregnancy test in the bathroom trash." Clint admitted, he knew his time was about up.
"Clint."
Nat could feel Clint slipping away from her fast. She moved Clint so they were looking at one another.
"Nat. I love you."
Natasha and Clint knew this would be the last thing they would be doing for the last time.
"I love you Clint." Natasha said, as she leaned in and kissed him for the last time.
Midway through the kiss, she felt him slipping away. His body relaxed underneath hers. She knew he was gone. She pulled back and just hugged him. Everything in her world just stopped. Tears streamed down her face, as she sat hugging Clint's lifeless body. That was how she stayed until the rest of The Avengers got there.
