Chapter 1

Natasha loosened her hold on Steve's shoulders and kissed his temple when she came down from her high. He was panting into her neck and pulled out of her. He moved his head and looked at her with a dopey grin on his face. She rolled her eyes at him and pulled his head down to kiss him. It was a lazy and soft kiss with them both being too spent after their second round of lovemaking tonight. Steve rolled on his back and tugged her against his chest.

"I'm so glad the world doesn't know how good Captain America is in bed. Women would kick the door in to have their wicked way with you." She said and looked up at Steve with a grin.

He snorted and cupped her ass with his hand. "I'm sure the Black Widow would protect me."

She moved up to lean over him. "I would, Steve." She answered with a serious tone. "I would do anything to protect you. I love you."

"I know." He smiled and it made her heart flutter. "I know, doll. And I love you, too." She closed her eyes and lowered her head to kiss him. She was grateful everyday that he forgave her and that she had him back. She didn't deserve him but she was too selfish to walk away. He wanted her in his life and she would give him anything he wanted. Anything. He kissed her back and she was more than ready to start round three when her stomach began to growl. They had skipped dinner and went straight to her bedroom. She had finally found a nice apartment near Steve's and moved in today. They wanted to celebrate and go out but never left the apartment. Making love to Steve seemed more important than food.

"Okay, time to eat." He gave her a short peck and sat up. "You got anything here?"

She shook her head. "No, I hadn't had the time to go to the grocery store yet. We could order something." She checked the time. It would take ages until the food would arrive.

Steve must have had the same thought. He moved to the edge of the bed and put his briefs on. "I'll just run quickly to the supermarket around the corner and get something for us. I'm sure they have stuff that we only have to heat up. You got a microwave right?"

She crawled over to him and kissed his shoulder."Yup." She wrapped her arms around his waist and moved her hand southward. Steve laughed and grabbed her wrist. "Stop that or I'll never leave this bed."

"That's sound like a great idea." She whispered into his ear and he seemed to think about staying in bed but then her stomach growled again. Traitor!

"I think that settles it then." He moved his head to kiss her and got out of bed. "I'll be back as quick as possible."

"Okay. I'll be waiting for you, babe. In bed, naked, thinking about you."

"That's not helping!" Steve groaned and left her bedroom. She laughed and took a sip of water.

Steve came back with rotisserie chicken, salads and chocolate sauce. They ate the chicken and salads at her kitchen table and then moved back to the bed where Steve licked the chocolate sauce off her body. She thanked the universe and Steve that she ended up in a place where Captain America was licking the chocolate sauce off between her legs.

"This meeting doesn't mean I'm rejoining SHIELD!" Steve said for the sixth time today. They were in DC on their way to meet with Fury at the Triskelion to talk about James and his future. He had offered her to call him Bucky but she thought that was more the name for a dog and decided to call him James. They needed SHIELD's help to get him amnesty. She hoped that it would work the same way as it had with her.

"I know that, Steve. No one's forcing you to come back." She parked the car in the garage of the Triskelion. She was still working for SHIELD but took a sabbatical to work on her relationship with Steve and to help him with James. And there was still the whole HYDRA thing that they were working on with Stark. Fury wanted them to dig into it so SHIELD wouldn't know about it in case it was infiltrated by HYDRA. "But we need SHIELD right now. We can't get James his freedom without Fury."

Steve nodded and took her hand. "I haven't seen Fury since the Belova thing. It's weird to see him again. Does he know we're back together?"

"I haven't told him directly but I think he put two and two together with me moving to New York and helping you with James." She leaned over and kissed his cheek. "I know you don't want to be here and I get it. And again I'm so sorry for lying to you."

He kissed her. "Hey, this is behind us. We moved on. I know you're sorry and I forgave you."

She nodded and kissed him again. God, he was so good to her. "Remember you're here for James. And once we're done and back at the hotel, I'll reward you." She winked at him and he gulped.

"Yeah? How?"

"How does a blowjob sound?"

He made a noise in the back of his throat. "...Great." She smirked at him and they got out of the car and walked to the elevator. Two agents were in it and stared at them with big eyes. She knew from Clint that rumors had been running wild after Steve quit and she was ordered to stay in London. Most agents seemed to suspect that something unprofessional happened between her and Captain America. Steve nodded at the agents and they left the elevator soon.

"I guess now everyone will know we're here." Steve said after they were alone.

"Yeah." She agreed and took a deep breath when they reached the top floor where Fury's office was. The last she had been here was when Steve found out who she really was. She had been so sure then that she lost him forever. Fury and Coulson were already waiting for them when they stepped into the office. They sat down in front of Fury's desk after Steve shook both Fury and Coulson's hands firmer than necessary.

"This is from LaTanya." Fury shoved a little basket over the desk. She peaked inside and spotted bath bombs, massage oils and a Kamasutra. She snorted and couldn't wait to read it with Steve.

Fury looked uncomfortable and she knew that he looked into the basket too. He coughed. "Thank you for coming, Captain Rogers. Romanoff explained to me more than once that you have no plans to come back to SHIELD."

"Correct."

"Well, maybe you'll change your mind one day." Fury said while looking at her. Would he use her to get Steve to rejoin SHIELD?

"We're here to talk about Bucky."

"Right." Coulson nodded. "What would Sergeant Barnes think about joining SHIELD? That way he can get the same protection that Natasha got after she deflected."

Steve opened his mouth but she was faster. "He's not ready to be back in the field."

"He doesn't have to be combat ready. Just be officially under SHIELD's wing and do the psychological evaluation and other tests. He needs to be under supervision if we want to get him amnesty from the DOJ. He can stay in New York for that."

"Who would be in charge of this?" She asked.

"Me." Coulson answered. She trusted him. He was the one who had helped Clint convince Fury to give her a chance. Steve looked at her and she nodded.

"I'll talk to Bucky about it." He eventually said. "I need you to promise me that you won't force him on missions. He's not a weapon anymore." He looked at Fury and Coulson.

Fury looked unhappy. "Fine. But if he wants to work for us, I will not stop him."

"Good." Steve stood up and looked at her.

"One second, I'll have to talk to Coulson and Fury. I'll be right with you." She handed him LaTanya's basket and he blushed. So he'd seen the Kamasutra. She hid her smirk and waited until Steve left the office. "You better keep your word. Barnes has been through enough. He can't be forced to be turned into a that thing again."

"We never forced you, Natasha." Coulson interjected.

"I know. I also know Nick is still pissed that SHIELD lost Captain America and Barnes is the next best thing. If you make Barnes do anything against his will, I will leave SHIELD as well."

Fury chuckled. "Love truly changes people. You have my word that we only want to help Barnes."

"Good." She stood up and smoothed her pencil skirt. "And tell LaTanya thank you for the basket. I'm sure we'll make the most of it."

"I don't need to know that." Fury groaned and she left with a smirk on her face. Steve was waiting for her outside and she took his hand. He looked surprised but squeezed her hand. Only top level agents had access to this floor and they wouldn't talk about it if they saw Captain America and Black Widow holding hands.

"So did you threaten Fury?" Steve asked with a grin when they entered the elevator.

"You make me sound like a psycho!" She laughed and ran her hand over his chest. "I just reminded him that my loyalty isn't with SHIELD anymore. It's with you."

"Natasha." He whispered. "I know what they did for you-"

"Yes and I will always be grateful for Coulson and Fury for that. But they're not my home. You are. You help me become the person I could be if the Red Room never happened."

He cupped her cheek and was about to say something when the doors opened and Hill walked into the elevator. "Hi." She grinned and told the AI to take her to the armory.

"I love you." Steve whispered when they were alone again and she smiled. She would never get tired of hearing it. Never. She waited until they were in the car to tell him that she loved him too.

Back in their hotel room she dropped to her knees to give Steve his reward and then later they tried a few things from the Kamasutra with him commenting that he was glad that she was so flexible. She laughed and turned the pages until she found something she wanted to try next. She was glad as well that he was very agil and strong. She briefly wondered how people without their training and serums managed to try these positions but that thought left her mind the minute he lifted her of the bed with only her hands on the mattress and pushed back into her.

Holy cow! Wow, I never imagined so many responses when I asked if people were interested in a second part! That really blew my mind! So here it is. I hope you'll like the second part of this journey! Let me know what you think!
