Hi guys, this is the second chapter, please review and I'm sorry if there are mistakes, english is not my first language.
It happened so fast that he got up and fought fiercely the last men there, maybe it was the shot of adrenaline or something beyond his power because he was done with everyone after that.
Stark went to him and asked looking around "Where's Romanoff?"
Rogers looked down.
Tony full of fury took him by the shoulders as strong as he could "You said you had got her!" he yelled
Clint came down too, at the sight of the two men he fell on his knees and covered his face.
"Guys?" A voice came through the microphones
"Banner?" Tony asked
"Yes" He answered
"What is it?"
"I caught Natasha on the air, well the Hulk did but she's unconscious" he answered slowly
Steve covered his face "Thank God!"
Clint looked up and Tony smiled, then he asked "JARVIS, how far is the hospital?"
The super intelligent computer answered "About ten minutes, Sir"
Tony nodded "Thanks JARVIS, Banner, I'll see you down in a sec"
"Ok" the scientist answered
Clint got up "We'll meet you at the hospital Stark"
Without another word Iron Man flew away leaving Captain America and Hawkeye alone. They ran down the stairs where they found Thor, after explaining him everything; the three of them went to the hospital.
When they arrived Bruce and Tony were talking to the receptionist. Stark was still in his armor with the exception of his helmet and Bruce was shirtless and without shoes.
"How is she?" Stark started asking
"We don't know yet" the middle age woman answered
"C'mon! Work with me woman" Tony started to tell her
"Sir, please don't yell and get your armor off, this is a hospital not a war zone!" She said back
Bruce sighed "Just tell us how she is doing"
"I can't give you that information Sir, and please, get a shirt on"
This time Clint stepped in "So you do have that information!" he snapped
The lady took a deep breath; everyone had started to look at them.
Tony Stark was now annoyed so he looked directly at the woman and said in an authority voice "Listen Ms, you don't want to give us Natasha's status; you are scolding us and trying to make us wear decent clothes. Do you have any idea of who I am? Of whom we are?! That woman over there just saved your life by risking hers so, stop being a jerk and let us see her!"
The woman did a crooked smile "No" she said
"That's it!" The billionaire yelled and took out his phone "I'm buying this damn hospital!"
The woman snorted, but Stark was serious.
"Pep? Yeah it's me Tony, yeah I'm fine…. Listen I need you to buy the hospital next to the sandwich place you like… No, the green one. You want to know why? Natasha almost died and some random receptionist won't let us see her… Yes I tried telling her we just saved her ass… No! I want to buy THIS hospital. Of course is for the assassin… Virginia Pepper Potts JUST BUY THE DAMN HOSPITAL, I'LL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING LATER!... I'm sorry for yelling at you, but you aren't listening… ok… ok! I'll wait"
"Are you done?" The woman asked him
"Yes! My girlfriend will send me a message with the documents once she has bought it" He answered
She laughed until Tony's phone started ringing, he got it out
"There, the hospital is mine" and with a smirk he showed the receptionist the documents.
She went pale and pointed at a nurse so they could follow her.
The new owner of the hospital grinned at her and started walking towards Natasha's room, the Avengers stood awkwardly and followed. The nurse that was guiding them stopped in front of a room, they entered and saw the read head laying on a hospital bed with her eyes closed as if she was in a deep dream.
Tony stayed in front of her bed next to Thor while Clint and Steve got close to where her head was resting in the right and left side
Bruce stayed with one foot inside the room and one out; his science buddy frowned at him.
"I was the one who hurt her" He explained
"And the one who saved her" Thor added making everyone look at him "What? It is true!"
Tony laughed "Of course it's true, get your ass in here Banner"
Bruce nodded and went in, closing the door behind him.
"Is she sleeping?" The mighty Thor asked
"Yes" Clint answered and patted her head "If she weren't she'd have broken my arm for touching her hair"
"Don't give her ideas" Bruce said half joking half serious.
Tony sighed "It's funny to see the person you're scared of being so vulnerable"
Thor frowned "You are scared of her?"
This time Steve answered "Everyone should be"
"I say we take a picture of her and make posters of it so we can place them all over the city" Stark said cheerfully
Natasha's eyes twitched, only Clint noticed, then she lifted her middle finger towards Stark
"She's back" he announced
The Russian assassin smiled
"You worried us for a moment Romanoff" Steve told her
"Yeah, we even bought a coffin" Clint joked
She tried to sit up but failed "Why does my body hurt so much?"
Bruce stiffened and explained "Because of me… after you fell I saw you and the other guy jumped and caught you, but he hurt you in the process of landing"
The doctor took a step back, Natasha made all the effort she could and finally sat up covering the pain she was feeling with a warm smile "Thank you Bruce" she said
He nodded awkwardly; the spy knew that if she acted wounded Bruce would start to blame himself for what had happened to her. She being alive was a miracle; there was no point on trying to find who was responsible. To change the subject she asked them how they had got inside the room.
"Our friend Tony bought the hospital!" Thor answered
"Because of me?" She asked surprised
"Yes, and for that grumpy receptionist, she made me want to fire her and for that to happen I need to be her boss" Tony explained
"What did she tell you?"
The billionaire sighed "She told me to take my armor off! And wanted Banner to put a shirt on, hello! It's a free country and I am Anthony freaking Stark… she also wouldn't tell us how you were"
The red head looked at Bruce and asked "Why aren't you wearing a shirt?"
He covered himself with his arms "I didn't have time to put on anything after the other guy left, except some pants I found"
The door burst open, Pepper entered, she had two hand bags in each arm, and she went to Natasha and hugged her. "Tony told me everything, how are you doing?"
"I'm okay, a little hurt but nothing that won't heal in more than a week" The red head answered
Pepper smiled to her, and then she turned and started to talk with everyone else so Natasha got close to Clint and whispered "Help me stay straight"
Hawkeye understood. She was pretending to be okay for some reason, so he put his hand on her back so it looked like he was hugging her. She looked at him and gave a "thank you" smile.
Steve noticed "Guys, why don't we all let Romanoff rest?"
"Sure" Pep answered and took Tony's hand before going out and everyone followed leaving Clint and Natasha alone. She fell on her back "It hurts so much!" she complained
"I can see that!" he told her "Why do you hide it? No one's going to criticize you for being hurt after you fell of a freaking building"
She frowned. "Seriously Clint? I'm not pretending because I'm afraid they'll say something. Banner is not comfortable when he uses the big guy on fights so if he knows that he almost broke every bone in my body he'll refuse to use the Hulk again"
Barton arched his eyebrows "So what's your plan? Pretend you're fine around him even though you are dying of pain?"
"Basically"
Captain America entered "What's going on?" he asked them
This time Clint explained "Natasha feels like crap but she won't tell Bruce cause she's afraid he'll blame himself"
"Is that true?" Steve asked her
"Yes, thanks so much Clint" she said with sarcasm
"No problem" Barton answered
The super soldier sat on a chair "You are probably right, besides it's my fault"
"It's okay Steve, I don't need a babysitter" Nat told him
"Make a mental note" Clint ordered him
Steve chuckled
