Chapter 38: Clint's Goodbye
Clint's POV:
The last two weeks since Natasha's suicide attempt has worn me down. I made sure Steve and the others still ate and slept. Now today we all have to give our final goodbyes to Nat, to my BEST friend.
Bruce already said goodbye so I decided to go next.
I walk in her room slowly.
It's hard every time I step through that door. To see her just lying there.
I go and sit on her bed and take her hand.
"Natasha, this is so hard. You are and always will be my best friend. You are practically my sister. I just can't believe you're gone. I don't know why you decided to leave us. I know Steve's supposed death was hard it was hard on all of us. But Nat, he is alive but now you are the one killing him. You are killing us all. Some don't show it but you affected us all. I spent all week hoping I wouldn't have to do this. That you would just pop up and surprise us all. But now all I have left are my memories of you. That 8th grade dance was the best. I miss your laugh, but I really miss that 'I am better than you' look you only give me on the shooting range. I will miss the way you scare Tony. No one can or will ever replace you. And to be honest I was hoping I would get to tease you when you get grey hair but I guess I won't. I am going to miss you Natasha. But this is goodbye. Goodbye forever Natasha."
I wipe the tears from my face. I get off the bed and kiss her forehead.
I head to the door but stop when I get there.
"Natasha, I love you. I always had but you found Steve and I got Bobbi. I just wanted you to know."
With that I step out and take my seat.
I finally told her.
I waited for that since that dance.
I wished it wasn't too late, but she is practically dead already.
And I just have to accept that.
