Chapter 29: Press conference
Natasha's POV:
The next morning was a depressing one. We were able to prepare ourselves for this interview. In the last few hours I have added two more marks.
Today I decide to wear a one shoulder flowy long sleeve cocktail dress. The long sleeve just so happens to cover my marks that are on my left arm. I wear my hair down in my natural curls, and the only make-up I wear is a little black eyeliner.
I made Clint go get everything and I got dressed in their bathroom. I haven't been in our room since the night of Steve's accident. I am just not ready to face that just yet. I walk out the bathroom to see everyone in the process of getting ready.
Tony wears a grey Armani suit with designer shades.
Bruce wears a white button up shirt with black dress pants.
Clint wears the same as Bruce but he adds his favorite purple shades.
Thor wears a nice dark suit with his Blonde hair styled perfect.
I know that if Steve was here he would wear black dress pants with a white button up shirt and a tie to match whatever I wore.
My eyes well up with tears and I head back to the bathroom to add another mark before hiding the blade in my dress.
I feel nauseas this morning but I ignore it and walk back out.
"Nat, just in time the car is waiting," says Clint.
"I'm ready let's go," I say and he leads me to the car.
When we get there we see it is set up just like last time. We even have the same interviewer.
We were told to be seated and we did. We all noticed the empty seat beside me and my throat tightens with tears as I stare at the empty seat where my soon to be husband should be sitting. Tony, who sits beside me still wearing his shades, pats my knee beneath the table as the interview starts.
"Hello everyone let's get started. So Ms. Romanoff where is Captain Rogers today?"
I sit in silence and look to my boys. Clint slowly nods his head to encourage me to tell the world who waits in silence for my answer.
"He is not here today because he... he… he died Thursday night in a car crash," I say and my voice cracks towards the end. Everyone is shocked so no one protests when I get up and walk to Thor.
In the past day I found myself seeking comfort from Thor. He is the most similar to Steve so I find comfort in his big stature.
"Oh," says the interviewer looking dumbfounded. "I am so sorry but we have to ask some questions still."
I make my way back to my seat. "Yes of course ask away," I say trying to make my voice sound stronger.
"Okay well we have a picture from Thursday night and we would like to know what is going on," he says while pointing to a big screen to his right.
The picture shows a crowd of my friends and in the middle Steve is on one knee looking up at my surprised face.
"Well that was the moment that Steve asked me to be Mrs. Rogers," I say with a smile and I feel a tear roll down my face.
"So how are you guys handling this tragedy?"
Thor was the first to speak up. "My friend and I had just won the championship that night. He also just promised Natasha forever. He was being the good guy and he drove a buddy home. But he ends up never coming home. He … he burned alive that night… it should have been me… not him he had so much to live for." Thor cries and Bruce hands him a tissue.
"Well it was hard on everyone to lose him," says Clint.
"Yea but someone had to be strong for the others," says Bruce.
"And someone had to take control of the planning and training," say Tony.
Suddenly I feel as if I am going to be sick. I run off stage and to the nearest trash can. I hear the Interview come to an end. Meanwhile a nice woman holds back my hair for me.
"Don't worry the morning sickness gets better after a while," she says after I thank her.
"Wait no I am not pregnant," I say quickly.
"Well you have that glow and you just threw up, are you sure you aren't?" she asks.
I then realize I am not sure even though the doctor said it was impossible.
I run from there as soon as possible because I need to check.
Steve's POV:
It hurts me to watch Natasha harm herself and I know I can't stop her.
I notice that both Tony and Clint wear sunglasses. I know that it is to hide their tears not just to look cool.
I wish I could hear the interview because I know it must be hard since both Natasha and Thor cried during the interview.
I become alarmed when Natasha runs from the stage to a nearby trash can back stage. I notice a nice woman held her hair back and also talked to Natasha for a minute. I don't know what they talked about but it seemed to have scared Natasha.
I don't understand what it was until I see that small pink plus sign.
A/N: please review. What do you think should happen while Steve is "Dead"? Please please please review.
