"Get the lead out, soldier boy!"
Natasha looked up when she heard Tony shouting before going back to her pistol.
"What is he doing to Steve now?" she asked.
"Taking him out to meet a girl." Clint answered casually.
Natasha felt her finger pull on the trigger of her gun but thankfully it wasn't loaded. She realized what she just did and let go of the trigger.
"Why is he taking him to meet a girl?" she asked trying to keep her voice steady.
"Stark thinks that it's time Steve got a wife." Clint answered and Natasha found herself pulling the trigger of her gun again but with added strength.
She released it again and found herself wondering why she was acting this way. If Steve wanted to date, then she should be happy for him.
She could imagine that he must be lonely. He was the only person from his time in the area that they know of. If there was anyone else there was a high chance that Steve didn't know them and if he did they were either suffering from memory loss or were about to say their final farewells.
Finding a girlfriend might make Steve a lot happier. So Natasha found it a little odd when she realized she was feeling a little...envious...of the fact that he was being taken to meet someone.
"Want to go spy on them and see how it goes?" Clint asked with a gleeful tone in his voice.
"Clint, you really want to invade the privacy of your team leader?" Natasha asked, managing to keep a teasing tone.
"Don't act like you're not curious as to how this will go." Clint replied as a smirk crossed his lips.
"Well...maybe a little." Natasha replied with her own smirk. She was actually hoping that Clint was serious and they would follow Steve around on his first date.
"Come on, Nat." Clint said. "Let's go follow him. It'll at least give us an insight of how well he learned those lessons from you. You do want to see how good of a teacher you are right?"
"Barton, you know I do." Natasha said. "Go gear up."
Clint jumped off the couch eagerly and quickly rushed to his room to get his gear.
Natasha went to her own room and got the items she felt would be needed for this little spy mission. As she looked over her collection, she found herself wanting to pick the deadlier items.
Why am I acting this way? she asked herself. If Steve wants to date, then he has every right in the world to do so. So why am I feeling...so...jealous?
Natasha felt her pistol slip from her hand when she realized what she just asked herself.
She was jealous! She was jealous that Steve was being set up on a date to find a girlfriend...and it wasn't her.
Oh my...I've fallen for Steve.
