Chapter 2

"It took you weeks to finally kiss me, Captain," Natasha said, stepping back and licking her lips. Steve gave her a smile.

"I was waiting for a sign. Your sign," he said, sitting on the sofa behind them. Natasha joined him.

"Trust me, Rogers. That sign wouldn't be enough for you to realize that I was waiting for you to make a move," she placed her hand on his tight. Steve tensed. "Stop doing that!"

"Doing what?" Clint asked her, from the doorway. Natasha removed her hand and stood up.

"None of your business," she said, leaving the room. Clint stopped her by grabbing her arm.

"We need to talk," he said, serious. Natasha stared at him and smiled.

"About what happened in the training room?" she asked and Clint nodded. "Ask Steve," she answered and left.

"What's going on between you two? I thought that you would be dead by now," Clint said, sitting next to Steve.

"There was a misunderstanding. We're okay now," Steve said, standing up. He was about to leave when they realized that someone was knocking the front door. Steve was about to open it when Nick Fury appeared from behind it.

"Is everything okay, sir?" he asked him, curious. Fury nodded and waved at Clint.

"Good to have the two of you here. Where is the rest?" he asked, looking around.

"JARVIS, call the others, please," Steve said, standing in front of Fury.

"What is the meeting about?" Tony Stark asked, entering the room. Natasha and Bruce got in as well.

"I called you to let you know about a mission. We need to get into an old HYDRA base. Rogers and Romanoff must get four kidnapped ex agents," he said, handing them a file. "Stark and Bruce, your mission is to find the medical records from the last 5 years. We believe that this building is being used again. Clint must gather most of the names of the people that have been working for them" Fury finished talking and looked at them. "Is there any doubt?"

"No, sir," Steve replied, serious. "You have twenty minutes to get ready. I'll meet you in the Quinjet," Steve said, leaving the room.

"Natasha, I need to talk to you," Fury said, serious. She nodded.


"Nervous, Cap?" Natasha asked him, sitting next to him. He shook his head and she smiled.

"I never thought that you would prefer blue instead of green, Natasha," Tony said, smiling. Natasha gave him a death glare and made her way to him.

"Make any comment and I might confuse you with one of the guys from HYDRA," she said, upset. Tony nodded and apologized.

It took them almost two hours to get to the HYDRA base. Everything was quiet, but Steve had a bad feeling. Natasha was standing next to him outside the Quinjet. The other had paired with their partners and were walking to the base entrance.

"Remember your missions and I'll meet you here before they even realize we're invading their place," Steve said and they nodded.

Natasha kicked the door and opened it. It was empty inside. Bruce and Stark followed their map and left them behind. Clint was already on his way to the offices. "Here's the thing," Steve said, turning left and opening a door. "We'll get into the dungeon and get as many agents as possible, then we are going to take them into the Quinjet and wait for the others. If any HYDRA agent appears, we shoot. Got it, Romanoff?" he said, taking down the stairs.

"Romanoff?" Steve turned to see his partner. He was alone. Steve shook his head and was about to go looking for her when he heard people groaning. He decided to help those agents before it was too late.


"Where is Natasha?" Clint asked Steve when he came back to the Quinjet. Steve helped the four agents to get in and turned to leave. "Where is Natasha?!" he asked again.

"I don't know! I'm going to get her," Steve said, controlling his voice. Clint stood up but stopped.

"Missing me already, Captain?" Natasha asked from behind him. Steve looked at her and turned to get into the plane without answering her. "I'll take that as a yes," she said, following him.


I hope you like it! And I'm sorry for any mistake you might find! I couldn't get a beta, so I have decided to become my own beta. I just couldn't wait any longer to post this.
