"That was probably the stupidest thing you've ever done Rogers!" Natasha exclaimed throwing her bag down in disgust. "Taking on a whole freaking army BY YOURSELF!"
"Natasha" Steve said
"No shut up Rogers you don't get to speak"
"Natasha" Steve said softly moving closer to her putting a firm hand on her hip pulling her in close.
"No stop that. That's not fair. I'm mad at you." She said locking eyes with Steve.
"It's okay Natasha. I'm fine. See?" Steve stepped back to let Natasha get a good look at him. She ran her hand over his body.
"Steve." She looked at him intensely.
"Steve?!" She yelled at him her face exploding with anger.
"STEVE!" Steve jumped out of bed ready to attack. He noticed Romanoff standing on the other side of the bed and relaxed.
"You are going to want to put some pants on Rogers." She said looking at the tent in his boxers. Steve blushed fruitlessly trying to hide it.
"I made you breakfast." Natasha said pointing at the trey sitting on the nightstand closest to her. "And Stark called, training starts at 9. I'm leaving in 10 minutes." Steve looked over at the clock it was 8:40am.
"Thanks Natasha." Steve said with a smile "I'll be right down." Natasha smiled, turned and left. Steve sighed and scarfed down the food. He dropped the dishes and tray off in his kitchen on the way to the bathroom.
"Well I probably don't have time for a shower." He muttered eyeing the shower. He grabbed his toothbrush and stared at his reflection for a moment. He noticed a bit of green in the blue of eyes. A flaw. He brushed his teeth and shaved his face. He thought about the dream he just had. It seemed so real. He shook his head. The events of the past year have certainly brought them closer together. Steve doesn't know one person who Natasha has ever cooked breakfast for. Steve walked towards his closet discarding his boxers and wife beater in the clothes hamper and pulled on an almost too small t-shirt, a fresh pair of boxers, and a pair of shorts. He grabbed his duffle bag and shield checking the contents of the bag to make sure he had everything and headed to the door. He locked his door behind him and walked down the hall to the elevator. Natasha has opened up to Rogers more than anyone but Barton. They have spent many nights with her just telling him stories of her past and him just listening. He got into the elevator and pushed the button for the parking garage.
"Hey hold the elevator!" He heard Natasha yell rapid footsteps approached the elevator. Steve put his arm between the doors to prevent them from closing on her.
"Thanks Rogers." Natasha said out of breath smiling at him.
"You are welcome Romanoff" Steve replied returning the smile. She was dressed in uniform. A skintight catsuit the material of which hugged her curves quite nicely. Natasha was beautiful. A blind man could see how beautiful she is. Come to think of it one has. Steve started to blush. He shouldn't be thinking about his teammate like that. He shakes the thought out of his head and tried to think of something else. He thought of Bucky, and his ongoing search for him and how he was no closer to locating him then when he started looking.
"I wonder how much Starks going to push us today." Natasha said breaking the silence. Steve snapped out of his thoughts.
"Well considering our performance on the last Hydra raid…"
"You don't have to go all tactician on me Rogers. You can speak normally." Natasha said rolling her eyes.
"Sorry. Um without a doubt he will be pushing us to our limits." Steve said looking down at his shoes.
The elevator chimed and the doors slid open.
"You want to carpool?" Natasha asked pointing to her Corvette.
"Thank you for the offer but I'm going to go to lunch after training." Steve said getting on his bike.
"You finally got a date. Good for you Rogers." Natasha said throwing her bag in the passenger seat of her car.
"No not a date. Just me." Steve said with a sad smile.
"Hey where's your boyfriend?" He joked. Natasha has expressed interest in Banner recently.
"Haha very funny Rogers. He's already at Avengers tower." She said with an icy stare.
"Banner seems to really like you." Steve said. Natasha shook her head.
"I'll see you at the tower Rogers." She said getting into her car and closing the door. Steve started his bike and revved the engine. Natasha rolled her eyes and started her car.
"Our last mission was sloppy" Tony said his gestures were very animated. "If the hulk…" Banner cleared his throat "...sorry. If the other guy wasn't there, Steve would no longer be with us." Steve looked at the grain in the table as if it were something of importance. "That's why I have comprised a new training program for us. I will push each and every one of you to your limits. In other news we broke ground on the construction for the new facility. That'll be done sometime later this year." no one looked excited "What is up with you guys today?"
"You just spent the last hour yelling at us. Telling us we failed and should be ashamed of ourselves" Steve pointed out. He got up and patted Tony on the shoulder. "Maybe lead with that next time." Tony frowned.
"Okay let's get to work."
