We do not own these Marvel characters.

Reviewers:

Argus Drax: With regards to the "Cosmic Spider" mention, we can't do Spidey getting with himself…that's weird. As for the Toni Stark part, we will be coming back to it at a later date but we aren't sure about the position for Pepper.

SHIELD HQ, 1407, Inside the Training Area. A black suit clad, red haired spy is fighting LMD's that have transformed into Red Skull.

She was like a dancer, elegantly moving across the floor like she was gliding as she slammed her fists or feet into the robots

"Simulation Terminated." A robotic voice spoke ending the training session

"Do you have anything challenging Fury? I'm getting complacent." The woman spoke

"Sorry Natasha but you've gone through all known villains in the database." Nike Fury walked through the automated doors.

"Then how about a Hero?" The woman, Natasha Romanoff the Black Widow called

"There's hundreds. But I'll try and find a sparring partner." Fury answered

"It better not be Cap or Hawkeye. I know their moves like the back of my hand." Natasha answered

"Hmm. Then... how about this one? He's a good match for you." Fury said. The robots became a familiar figure before Natasha's eyes

"Spider-Man?" Natasha asked

"Someone you don't normally fight, adaptable fighting style. Thought it would be a good challenge." Fury smirked

"Fine." Natasha sighed

He was cute and, even though she doesn't act like it, she was funny

'Head in the game Natasha!' She told herself as she was now facing four identical Spider-Man copies.

She fired from her wrist blasters into the robots causing two of them to fly back from the shots.

And the sight of Peter falling back with a bullet in his chest... It made her heart slow to a stop

'I-NO! I can't be feeling these things! Emotions get in the way of the mission!' Natasha told herself as she defended from the LMDs

But now, she was subconsciously going on the defensive

Natasha was becoming slightly overwhelmed, but that didn't stop Natasha from fighting...that is until Fury terminated the simulation.

"What was that for? I had that under control!" Natasha snapped

"Natasha. You are LITTERALLY in the corner. And you were only blocking." Furry said, Natasha realizing about the walls either side of her shoulders

"I-I..." Natasha tried to think of an explanation

"Take a break Natasha. I don't want one of my top agents losing sleep." Fury ordered

"Yea, I'm just tired. That's it." she told herself, nodding as she left the training room

'It's because it was him. I always hold back against HIM!'

"Damn it!" she slammed her door shut behind her and leaned back into the wall. 'Maybe...maybe if...no, don't be ridiculous. It's not in you Natasha; you're not SUPPOSED to let your feelings get in the way.'

She fell to her knees, holding back her tears

*Time Skip*

Natasha walked out from SHIELD, using one of her sick days instead of defecting and decided to clear her mind.

She was wearing a simple black button up shirt and blue jeans with a leather jacket

She went over to a cafe and sat outside overlooking the park.

She just sat there... thinking

Natasha walked in to order "Yes Miss? What would you like?" The waiter asked

Natasha asked for a chicken Panini and salad with a coffee and sat down she overheard Jonah bellowing out against Spider-Man again. 'Doesn't he have anything else better to do than rage into Peter?'

'I know, right?' a voice in front of him asked. Shocked, Natasha looked up to see herself wearing a black business suit with short hair. It was Nancy Rushman

"N-Nancy? No. No, you're just a figment of my imagination. An alias." Natasha whispered

'Possibly. Possibly not. I could be a manifestation of how you really feel towards a certain someone.' Nancy answered

"I don't feel ANYTHING for him." she hissed

'Are you sure? You flinched when you struck the LMD's.' Nancy answered

Natasha was silent and just looked away

"Your meal ma'am." The waiter passed Natasha's order to her.

"Thank you." the two said together, Natasha digging in

"Why did YOU say "thank you"? You're not real." Natasha commented while maintaining a normal appearance in public.

'I'm real Natasha. As real as you are. You just need to understand that your feelings don't get in the way. Think of it like this: if you were given an order that didn't sit right with you; would you disobey that order for the feelings you have?' Nancy asked

"Depends on the mission." Natasha said simply "Sometimes it is better to follow the orders, and sometimes you need to break them."

'Could you attack Peter if it was for the mission?' Nancy asked

'Why don't you ask him? Why not tell him how you feel?' Nancy asked

'I don't feel anything!' she hissed

'Are you sure?' Nancy asked as she faded away

Natasha sighed, looking down... and someone soon sat next to her

"Hey gloomy Gretchen, why the long face?" the voice joked

"P... Peter?!" Natasha gasped in surprise 'Of all the people to find me!'

"You feeling okay?" Peter asked

"I... err... yes." she nodded

"Just seems you needed some company. SHIELD giving you a hard time?" Peter asked kindly

"Yes." She lied as she calmed down

"Fury CAN be a bit harsh on us can't he?" Peter commented trying to cheer her up.

"True." Natasha said, trying to hold back a smile

"So...are you doing anything later? Or is it like an afternoon off?" Peter asked

'He-He's asking me if I'm off? Is he TRYING to date me?' Natasha instantly thought

"I've... I've got the day off. Why?" Natasha asked as she cooled her outside appearance

"You just look like you need to unwind. I've got a spare ticket to the theatre from a competition...you want to come?" Peter answered

"... Are you asking me out on a date Mr Parker?" she asked with a raised eyebrow

"Well..." Peter tried to think of an answer that didn't look like he WAS trying to ask her out "Yeah." He failed. Darn Parker honesty.

'He still likes us.' Nancy smiled, 'appearing' beside Natasha

'Get lost!' Natasha stared at her alias "I-I'd like to." she answered

"Cool...Err here." Peter handed the ticket to her.

"Thanks." Natasha accepted it and saw the title.

And frowned, seeing that Mary Jane would be starring

"Is...is everything okay?" Peter asked since he saw Natasha's facial expression change

"It...it seems to be popular." Natasha lied again

"You prefer quiet, low key shows then?" Peter asked

"It's not that. I'd like to go." Natasha answered

"Really?" Peter asked hopefully

"So...tonight at seven?" Peter smiled

"See you then." Natasha answered

"... Where should I pick you up?" he chuckled after a second

"Maybe at Avenger's Tower? Most of my stuff is still there." Natasha smiled

"Deal." Peter got up.

"Well, later." he waved, swinging away

'Yeah...later...' Natasha thought.

'Looks like we have a date. Hey Tasha?' Nancy smiled

'Go... away.' Natasha growled

'I can't I'm part of you.' Nancy gave a trickster's answer and disappeared

*Time Skip*

Inside Avenger's Tower Natasha was dressed in a sleek black dress that gave her free movement yet it didn't restrict her movement.

"Hmmm. this should do." she said aloud, looking at herself in the mirror

"*Long single whistle* Looking good Tasha." Hawkeye smiled

"Clint..." Natasha groaned

"What? Can't I compliment a friend?" Clint asked

"WHAT are you doing in my room?" she asked with a half-hearted glare

"Door was open." He answered

"No it wasn't." Natasha answered

"Look; Fury told me about the LMD training session. You know I'm your friend, right?" Clint answered

"Sometimes." she joked

"Well, I'm just glad you're getting time to be a normal person." Clint answered

"Yea, 'normal'." Natasha scoffed

"Look, just have fun where ever you're going. Forget your training and who you are, just enjoy the "who you aren't"." Clint answered

Natasha raised her eyebrow, not understanding but not caring

"Just have fun." Clint answered

"I know how to have fun." Natasha answered

"I guess you do." Clint answered

Natasha gave Clint the finger as said archer left the room laughing

Downstairs Peter was dressed in a sharpish tuxedo ready for the theatre. "Whoa..." He muttered in awe.

He saw her walking down the stairs confidently, a smile on her face

"You look...amazing." Peter smiled

"You clean up nice as well." Natasha responded

"Ehehe thanks." He blushed

"You ready?" Peter extended his arm like gentleman.

"Yes." Natasha answered

She looped her arm around his, the two leaving

*At the Theatre*

'No need to worry. He asked YOU to this thing, he's probably not thinking about MJ Watson.' Nancy answered

'I don't need you here right now.' Natasha answered

'Yes you do.' Nancy scoffed

"Natasha, you okay?" Peter asked

"I'm fine. I'm just thinking." Natasha answered

"Ah, that 'thing I don't do'." Peter joked

"Peter..." Natasha giggled.

Peter smiled "Come on. Our seats are here."

Natasha nodded as they took their seats... Front row seats

"Wow. Great seats Peter." Natasha whispered as the curtains opened

"Thanks." Peter accepted the compliment.

During the play, it showed a great performance. The audience was won by Mary Jane Watson who played her part to perfection. Natasha could see why Peter was enthralled with her ages ago; she had to wonder: would SHE have that same treatment as that?

Would he love her as much as he did her!

At the first interval Peter and Natasha stretched their legs in the foyer. Peter went to get some concessions while Natasha went to the ladies room

'That was nice.' Nancy smiled

'Why're you here? I thought I told you...' Natasha snapped

'Please Natasha, I think we BOTH know why I'm here.' Nancy answered

'No.' She denied

'You're worried and jealous. Jealous about MJ Watson and worried from his possible infatuation for her again.' Nancy answered

'I am not.' She scoffed

'Why're you denying it?' Nancy asked knowing what the answer was

'I-I'm not denying it!' Natasha answered

'Then what are you saying?' Nancy asked

'I...I don't know HOW to express them!' Natasha answered 'Whenever I open up...EVERYTHING gets compromised!'

'And he IS complicated.' Nancy nodded

"What if...What if I can't open up? What if I can't tell him?' Natasha thought

'Oh? The might Black Widow scared to do what I, a simple school teacher did?' Nancy mocked

'I lost my memory then...Now...now it's different.' Natasha thought

"The play will continue in five minutes. The play will continue in five minutes." the PA announcer proclaimed

'Then show that 'super spy courage'.' Nancy scoffed

'You know. If you keep this up. I'll get drunk and not hear you.' Natasha snapped

'Oh? THAT'LL be fun.' Nancy giggled

'Part two now. Let's get this over.' Natasha thought

'Go snag him Widow.' Nancy smiled

She just growled, storming out

"Hey...Is-is everything okay?" Peter saw Natasha coming out of the washroom with a half-scowl on her face.

"Yes." She lied

"O-Kay...Wine?" Peter handed a glass to her.

"Sure." She said, snatching the glass and downing it in one gulp

"Shall we head back to our seats?" Natasha asked with authority

"Yeah, sure." Peter answered. But what he was thinking 'What's going on? She's been like this all day.'

*time skip*

As the play closed its curtains a thunderous applause; Peter and Natasha left first as not to be caught in the crowd.

"That was nice." Peter smiled

"Yeah it was." Natasha answered as they exited the theatre.

"Do you want to catch a taxi, or the Web-head express?" Peter asked kindly

"... The web-head express." she said with a small smile

"My lady." Peter offered his hand to Natasha.

As she took it Peter pulled her in close and they swung away back to Avenger's Tower.

Natasha smiled, putting her head on his shoulder

*At the Tower*

Peter and Natasha landed safely on the tower's roof. Natasha turned to hold Peter back for a minute "Huh? What's wrong?" Peter asked

"You're warm." she smiled

"I-Err...You...What did you say?" Peter double-took thinking that it was the wine talking...even though they just had two glasses each.

"You're warm. I've missed this." she smiled

'Oh. My. GOD!' Peter thought "You...you've MISSED this?"

"Yes." Natasha answered hugging him closer.

"Being in your arms... I've missed it."

"Hey...err...listen Natasha..." Peter blushed

"Yeah?" Natasha asked

Peter blushed at the look in her eye, the same look she had as Nancy, and gulped

"Do you want to go out again sometime?" He managed to choke out the second time

"I'd love to." Natasha smiled

'Way to go!' Nancy cheered

"Well, great!" Peter smiled "I'll-I'll see you later then?"

"How about you stay a while?" Natasha offered

"Okay..." He said nervously

'I'm not wasting tonight.' Natasha thought

'Go get him girl!' Nancy smiled as she faded away.
