Chapter 9
"We need to find the others and leave," Natasha said, running down the stairs with Steve. "Barton, where are you?"
"I'm outside the party with Sharon," he said, looking at the big building in front of him. "Where are you and cap?"
"On our way there," Steve said, following Natasha.
"You have the files, right?" Clint asked Sharon, whom nodded. She turned around to face two men dressed in black. She kissed one of them and threw the other one at the wall whilekicking him.
"I need that lipstick," Clint said, smiling. Sharon gave him a smile and shook her head.
"There you are!" Natasha said when they finally join them. "We need to leave before they notice that we broke in," she added, checking the gold watch inside her purse.
"Kiss me," Sharon told Steve while moving closer to him. Steve stared at her in shock. "I see a group of men wearing black. Kiss me and they will ignore us," she added, grabbing his tie and bringing him to her lips. Natasha didn't get her change to kill the woman because Clint grabbed her wrist and took her behind a wall. They were watching the romantic scene in front of them.
"I think that Steve wants to die and so does she," Natasha muttered, while trying to control herself.
The group of men stared at Steve and Sharon for some seconds that seemed like hours before entering the building once again. "Let's go," Natasha said, walking away from them and making her way to the car.
No one commented the kiss, the fights nor the files or watch that they were carrying on their way to the tower. In fact, Steve pretended to be asleep until they landed.
"We're home," Banner said, uncomfortable. He looked at his team and swallowed. "I'll meet you inside," he added, before leaving the Quinjet.
Steve stood up and met Natasha's eyes before she looked away. He took a deep breath while going to the tower.
"Steve," Sharon said, joining him. He forced a smile. "I'm sorry about earlier. I couldn't think of anything else," she apologized. Steve nodded.
"It's okay. It's just a kiss," he said, slowly. Of course that it was more than a kiss. He didn't want to kiss her.
"You two are a great team," he heard Natasha's voice from behind them. He turned to look at her, but she didn't notice because she was laughing at something that Clint said. He raised an eyebrow and kept walking without paying her attention.
When they arrived, they met Fury, whom told them to take the day off. Steve was in the living room, reading his favorite book when Tony interrupted him.
"Did you guys used the tools?" he asked him, excited. Steve raised his gaze from the book and looked at him.
"We didn't have a chance. There weren't many men," he said, serious. Tony opened his mouth to answer but was interrupted.
"Steve has got his own tool, am I right Rogers?" she said, sitting next to him. Tony looked at Steve with curiosity in the eyes.
"What is it, Cap?" he asked him, sitting between Natasha and Steve. Captain America sighed and closed the book he was holding.
"Kissing," he whispered. Tony stared at him open mouthed. "It's not a big deal. It saved us from getting into a new fight,"
"I'm impressed, Captain. I thought that you weren't that kind of man," Tony said, looking at Natasha. She had a satisfactory smile on her face.
"Natasha taught how to use that tool during the mission," Steve said, playfully. Two can play this game.
"I didn't see you holding her leg around your waist," Natasha replied, teasing him. Tony was shocked.
"You held red's leg and you lived to tell the story?" he asked him impressed. Steve rolled his eyes.
"Natasha , can we talk?" he asked her, controlling his voice. She stood up.
"Not now. I'm going out with Bruce," she said, raising an eyebrow. Steve followed her with the eyes and turned back to face Tony.
"Did she really say that she was going out with Bruce?" he asked him. Tony didn't answer and left the room.
