Ok, Here we go, I suppose!)

The Avengers were enjoying a pleasant evening at the Stark Tower. Tony and Bruce were fixing the Iron Suit, Natasha and Clint were practicing their aerobatics, trying to kick each others ass. Steve was training in his boxing corner. Thor was back in Asgard, and so was Loki, presumably.

And after an hour or two a guitar was pulled out, the drinks were being passed around and a song was sung.

Back in Asgard Thor was speaking to Loki between prison bars.

"Have you ever burned from the inside?" the god of mischief asked the god of thunder. "Burned in agony and ecstasy, torture and bliss?"

"No. Loki, tell me what…burns you!''

"Tell me firstly, how often do you visit Earth?"

"Often enough, why?

"Next time you see Barton tell him I left a spider on Earth." Loki said dully and went to the furthest corner of his cell.
He hated her. He loved her. He simply needed her to be his and only his.

Earth.

"To Us!" Tony Stark said with a slightly drunk voice.

"I don't know about you, but this is my last drink for tonight!" The drunken Captain of America said and, swallowing the drink, he left. Bruce followed him a toast later, leaving two fully drunk men and a completely sober woman in the 'kitchen'.

"So how come you aren't drunk yet, Romanoff?" Tony asked.

"Stark, it's useless! Even I don't know that!" Clint said, as he reached to kiss Natasha but instead of finding two welcoming lips on his own pair he found Natasha's finger. Clint sighed, perhaps this wasn't his day.

Natasha picked up the guitar and pulled a few chords. Looking at the two men, she agreed with herself that they were drunk beyond reason, so her secret would be safe. She started a Russian song, grabbing Clint's and Tony's attentions.

А все кончается, кончается, кончается. It all will end and end and end
Едва качаются перон и фонари, The platforms and the lampposts rocking slightly
Глаза прощаются, на долго изучаются, Eyes meet and study each other thoroughly
И так все ясно, слов не говори! It's all so clear, no need for words!

А голова моя полна бессоницей And while my head is sleepless
Полна тревоги голова моя, My head is full of anxiety

И как расти не может дерево без солнца, And while a tree cannot live without sunlight

Так не могу я быть без вас, друзья! I cannot live without you all, my friends!

She finished the song and went to her own room and got into her bed and tried to go to sleep.

Natasha walked through an endless green field. The sky was a clear blue, without a single cloud. Field flowers bloomed in the long grass and slid through Natasha's fingers as she walked across to the other end of the field. She didn't know why she went that way but her eyes caught a figure there and she walked towards it. She walked confidently. But when the figure came into view and she saw who it was she stopped abruptly.

"Hello, Natasha…" The person in front of the Black Widow said.

"What are you doing here?"

"This is a dream. I cannot cross to your world, but I can enter your dreams…"

"Why! What for?"

"I wanted to see you. And I feel that seeing me in every one of your dreams will be better than seeing glimpses from your past!" The man said his voice low and thick.

"Go away! You're worse than any of those nightmares!" Natasha yelled as she backed away.

Loki reached for her hand which was pulled away immediately. The God of Mischief persisted and took Natasha's hand in his, pulled her into his embrace and held her tightly as she tried to pull back vainly.

Natasha woke up with a gasp. Just a nightmare… She looked at her alarm clock. 6:43, time to get up anyway, she thought. She walked into the kitchen, made herself a coffee and went to get dressed to attend a SHIELD meeting.

Just a nightmare…
