A little look into Steve's thoughts, after the mess that is Civil War. Written while listening to Unwell by Matchbox Twenty.
I hope you enjoy this tiny piece. Thank you all for your support in kudos and comments. Can't wait to hear from you.
Staring out the window, Wakanda always proved a sight to be hold even after 6 weeks or more of being his hiding spot.
Steve stood still as he followed the monkeys in front of the window leaping from one tree to another. his mind still in turmoil, it hasn't calmed down since the Peggy's funeral.
What was left of his life? Nothing, absolutely nothing.
He had freed his friends from the Raft, Clint had disappeared almost instantly taking Scott along and to try to reunite with their families. Sam and Wanda had come with him to Wakanda but the young witch got more restless every day, being confided even if it was a palace did not agree with her.
Bucky was still in Cyro, and Steve couldn't bring himself to visit him there. Who would have thought, Captain America was a coward indeed.
But the one he needed to hear from, the one he yearned to see, nothing but silence.
There had been no sign of Natasha since the airport, not even Clint could tell him where she would be.
"Look man, it's Natasha. She knew she had to disappear after T'Challa reported her to Ross, no-one will find her unless she is ready to be found."
She had brought Laura and the kids to safety though, it was her last known location. That was 6 weeks ago.
King T'Challa had apologised profusely for his intervention, but Steve couldn't be mad at him. He had only done what he thought was right, not when the same train of thought on his part had landed them in this mess.
And then the King gave him something to hold onto "Captain Rogers, there is a public bounty on your and Miss Romanoff's head. Do you really think if she had been captured that they wouldn't announce it, that they wouldn't celebrate the achievement of capturing the Black Widow?"
Steve held onto that thought, if he was being honest it was the only thing that kept him going at the moment. Leaving her behind like this wasn't the plan. Everything that happened in that one week, made him snap. Bucky, the Accords, and then Peggy's death. It was a never ending week of bad news, where he couldn't catch a breath and every time he tried to slow down, trying to think - something else blew up in his face, just like the UN building in Vienna.
