Chapter One ( 14 years after prologue)

Tony

Tony was angry and hurt - but who could blame him? - just 48 hours ago had he been told that someone he let in and trusted, had in fact been lying to him and in addition to that had she been really a member of Shield as well as an Assassin!

So when she came to talk to him only a few minutes ago, the next day he had yelled at her he still remembers the conversation.

A 5 minutes earlier

Tony heard a knock on his office door inside Stark Tower, where he was currently working on some things right now (or that's what Pepper thought).
"Come in"
"Hey" Walking through his door was the one who had lied to him and had broken his trust.
"Natasha what do you want?" The question was said with a lot of venom in it.
"I came to talk about what happened."
"What?"
"I came to talk about what happened."
"And what if I don't want to talk about it?"
"What? Why?" Natasha emotionless mask slipped slightly and a bit of the confusion she felt shone through it.
"Because I don't'. Now, please leave"
"Look I'm sorry, I was just doing my job!"
And right then Natasha's phone rang, right before Tony could answer her.
"Romanoff. ...Ok. I don't know if that's a good idea... Ok sir, will do. Bye." Natasha turned back to Tony.
"So... Shield wants to offer you a partnership with us?"
"No. Now get out" by this time Tony was absolutely furious at the red-head.
"I'm sorry, but as I already said: I was just doing my job!"
"And I said: get out! "
"Tony"
"Get. Out!"
When she opened her mouth to answer him he cut her off: "I don't care! Now get out! Get out of MY building!"
Tony could have sworn that he had seen a little bit of hurt in her facial expression but didn't care because she lied to him. Hell! She had probably been lying to him right then with her apology and the hurt expression.
When she had finally left, he went back to his work and stayed there for a good hour before he finally went home and there let off some steam by working on new ways to improve the armour.

Natasha (after the conversation/Argument)

Natasha was fuming. Never had she been spoken to like that, ever. Natasha was surprised that it came from Tony, the man who never yelled at anyone. But she had seen the hurt and anger in his eyes when he had told her to get out. So instead of breaking every bone in his body, she had decided to leave him alone. Fury could find someone else to deal with Stark.

When Natasha arrived at Shield headquarters she was instantly approached by Clint and Coulson.

"Hey how did it go Nat?"

Hey Clint not good Stark wouldn't even talk to me, he even told me to and I quote "get out of his building"

"Wow that bad huh?"

"Yeah"

"Ok well I'm going to go talk to Mr Stark and try to smooth things over with him while you and agent Romanoff here get some rest says Coulson looking at Clint, you guys are going to need it you've got a new assignment the director will brief you two tomorrow morning 0800 sharp."

"Are you sure he wouldn't even talk to me?"

"Yes I'm sure myself and Stark have a lot of respect for each other and I think the only reason right now for him not talking to you is that you lied to him, he let you in and you betrayed his trust I'm certain that you would feel the same way if it was you being lied to? And add the fact that his best friend took one of his suits and practically gave it to the US military you would feel pretty betrayed too wouldn't you think?"

"Yeah I guess so"

"Good now get some rest"

"Ok night Clint"

"Night Tasha"

"Coulson"

"Agent Romanoff"

In the end Natasha didn't really care about stark he was rash, annoying ,narcissistic idiot who happens to be rich, handsome and NO even if she gave into his charm she would just be thrown away after use just like every other girl anyway.

But just as she was able to get tony stark out of her head, her other friend on the shield base Maria Hill the base commander came up and gave Natasha a look that said tell me everything.
