Day 5: James Rogers

The son of Black Widow and Captain America.


October 7, 2015

Natasha sat on the bathroom floor waiting for the fifteen minutes to be up. For the past few days she hasn't been feeling herself; she's been throwing up, feeling light headed, and she couldn't get into her favorite pair of jeans two days ago.

"Maybe you should see the doctor. You might have the flu." Pepper told her. Natasha shook her head before looking back at her friend.

"My serum doesn't allow me to catch the flu remember?" Pepper made an 'O' shaped with her mouth when she remembered the conversation that she and Nat had about her past a year ago.

"How often do you and Steve…you know….have sex?"

"Pepper….."

"I'm just saying you might be pregnant."

"I can't get pregnant. They made sure of that."

"Ever watched Jane the Virgin?"

"Yes but…."

"Life works in weird ways. Just go get a pregnancy test."

"I'm not ready to be a mother. Hell I don't even know if I could raise a child correctly without fucking their life up." The redhead said with tears in her eyes. The CEO wrapped her arms around her friend's shoulder, allowing her to cry in her arms.

"You'll make a great mother Nat, don't worry about that. We're here for you. Me, Tony, Sam, Bruce, Clint, Jane, Maria, Nick, and most importantly Steve."

Here she was two hours after her talk with her best friend, sitting on her and Steve's apartment's bathroom floor. She was sure that she couldn't get pregnant due to the Red Room but if she was…..she wasn't ready to be a mother. She might mess up the child's life as her's was.

Hell her and Steve weren't even married or engaged for that matter! They never really talked about kids before because of their lifestyle and the dangers in the world.

Her timer on her phone went off and the spy slowly got off the floor and walked to the sink where she left the test. Her eyes widen in shock and tears began to fall freely on her face.

Natasha Romanoff.

The most deadly assassin in the world.

The Black Widow.

Was pregnant.


Steve came home a few hours later from a mission he was on earlier. He was still in his Captain America outfit when he went to pick up so Chinese food for himself and his girlfriend.

"Nat! I'm home!" he said when he closed to the apartment and locked it. The blonde put down his gym bag and walked to the kitchen and placed the food before washing his hands and unpacked the food. Soon he felt two tiny arms snake around his waist while the person's head rested on his back.

"Hi Nat."

"Hi." She returned back, quietly. Too quiet for Steve's liking. So he turned around and looked at his girlfriend. She was wearing of his shirts, with her red curly hair faming her face, and she was looking down at her feet, signs that something was troubling her and he wanted to find out.

"Is everything okay?" he asked as he pulled her chin so she can meet his eyes. Once they did meet, the blonde saw that her eyes were red and puffed up as if she has been crying for hours.

"Natasha…."

"I'm pregnant." She said cutting him off. If she didn't she would have lost all the courage that she built up. The room was silent to the point where you could hear a pen drop.

'She was pregnant.' That was all that ran though Steve's mind. They never really talked about kids before but he had one life wish it would to be a family with Natasha. Suddenly he dropped down on his knees and held her by her waist, while kissing her stomach happily.

"I'm going to be a father." He repeated over and over again.

"So you're not mad?" she asked in a nervous tone. Steve looked at her with widen eyes and a frown on his face.

"Why would I be mad? I'm going to be a father."

"I just thought you might be upset, you know since we never talked about having kids before and I didn't know if you were ready." The redhead explained. The blonde smiled at her before he went back to kissing her unseen baby bump.

"You and my child make me the happiest man in the world Nat. I'm happy that you're pregnant with our child. I love you and don't you forget that." He said before he continued to kissing her stomach happily.

The sight made Natasha smile and tears of joy ran down her face. The solider stood up after a while and kissed Natasha with passion on the lips in which she returned.

"Thank you. Thank you so much."

Over the next nine months they told the team, who were shocked but was happy for the couple anyways. The spy and solider asked if Bruce could be the doctor, and jumped at the chance.

They also found out that they were having a boy, decided to name him James after Steve's best friend James "Bucky" Barnes. As a surprise they told Tony that Anthony was going to be the middle name and to the day Natasha would never forget the look on his face.

Of course Tony wanted to go over the top with the baby shower, his reasoning was "This little guy is going to be the first mini Avenger! We have to go all out!" That statement led Pepper, Jane, Darcy, Laura, and Maria to plan the baby shower instead.

The Barton children were happy that they were getting a little cousin, Clint was happy to become an uncle, and Laura helped Natasha with what to expect during the first few months of motherhood.

Nick Fury mumbled something about becoming a grandfather for the fourth time (the first three were Clint's children), but loved the idea anyways.

On June 17, 2016 Steve was holding his new son James Anthony Rogers.

Three years later he asked Natasha to marry him and of course she said yes. Tony wanted to plan to wedding and everyone quickly said no, causing him to pout.


A/N: I love this chapter the most! Cute little James Rogers. And yes I had James' middle name after Tony.

Until next time
