007: Shooting star
Interest tickled, Natasha walked over to stand beside the currently sitting Steve, looking out at the night sky. She stared at it, the stars were actually pretty visible today. She looked down to him.
He smiled his cute, friendly smile. "It's a clear night. Never get to see stars like these here." He sighed and gazed back at the stars.
Natasha sat next to him, and made herself comfortable. "It's because of the blackout, I think." she looked at Steve, who was attentive. "And it's a really clear night." She felt her face warm in a light pink blush and turnt to look at the stars, smiling slightly.
"Beautiful." He said the word in almost a whisper, sending shivers down Nat's back like she hadn't felt since she was a teenager.
She watched the blonde peripherally, seeing him look at the sky in a fond way. He seemed happier she was here. Before, he had seemed to be reminiscing bad things.
She silently searched for his hand and placed hers sofly on his, not trying to make a fuss or anything, smooth. She could put Tony and Loki to shame in smoothness, not that they could acknowledge it.
His fingers curled flimsy around hers, and she could feel his slightly increased heartbeat.
A shooting star crossed the sky, and Natasha would've giggled if she were a lesser woman. She didn't need shooting-star intervention to get what she wanted.
Author Note: OK, OK, Natasha was slightly OOC there, at least in my opinion. I think BlackShield is cute, sue me.
You guys can give me prompts if you like too, I work good doing ficlet prompts. If you want me to continue any ficlet or expand upon it just tell me, I'm good.
Also I'd love any review, from a thesis to a flame screech, from garbles 'OHMAIGOSHNESS' to 'That was indubitably the most traumatising piece of novella I could possibly feast my eyes upon', or even just a 'are you gonna continue?' 'I like this' or anything really I am not picky.
