Clint and Bruce saw Natasha storming away from the door of Steve's suite with an upset look.

"You alright?" Clint asked.

"You two go in there and talk to him!" Natasha nearly snapped. "He wants to go back to the factory site to try to remember their plan."

"You told him?!" Bruce gasped.

"He needs to know the truth and we need to know what that fake Hydra is up to."

"So why didn't you finish talking to him?" Clint asked.

Natasha huffed before she continued walking away.

"That's not good." Clint said when Natasha was out of hearing range.

"How can you tell?" Bruce lightly teased.

"Something is up between those two." Clint continued with a smirk.

"How can you tell?" Bruce repeated with more interest.

"Natasha never gets this upset after 'talking' with someone and she has been showing a lot of 'concern' toward Steve since this whole thing started."

"You think she's falling for him?" Bruce asked.

"It's possible. There is a first for everything." the archer answered. "Although, I do admit that I never would have believed that one day Natasha Romanoff would be falling for Steve Rogers."

"That makes two of us." Bruce said before they walked to Steve's door.

"Cap?" Clint called as he knocked on the door.

"Come in." came the reply.

The two walked in and spotted Steve sitting on his couch. His elbows resting on his knees, his hands clasped together and his head lowered.

"You alright, Steve?" Bruce asked.

"Fine." the soldier answered.

"Cap, you're not a very good liar." Clint mused.

"Doesn't feel right." Steve admitted. "Natasha just basically grounded me."

"Won't be the first time. Believe me." Clint said with a tone of remembrance.

"She actually seems...worried about me." Steve said.

"She is." Clint confirmed. "You should be glad. She never really shows this kind of emotion toward any one. Honestly, I think you made a real impression on her."

"She told us what you want to do." Bruce said, changing the subject from Clint's hook up attempts. "You know that it's not a wise idea."

"I know." Steve agreed. "But it's something that I have to do. I need to remember who I am and I need to remember what I saw inside that building. Going back to that place is the only way I can think would help me."

Bruce lightly sighed.

Even though Steve didn't have his memories, he still had his dedicated attitude. That let Bruce know that, one way or another, Steve was going to get to that factory site.

"Listen, let us talk to the others and we'll see what we can do." he offered.

"Ok." Steve agreed with a nod of his head.

Bruce gave Clint a nod before leaving the suite.

"You like Natasha, don't you?" Clint asked after a few quiet moments.

Steve looked up at the archer.

"What do you mean?"

"You like her." Clint stated rather than asked. "She likes you too. That's really the only reason she would be so worried about you."

"She's only worried about what I know." Steve insisted. "Said it was pretty important."

"It is but she was pretty mad when we passed by her. She uses anger to cover her real emotions. I wouldn't take her concern lightly, Steve."

"I had asked her before if we were a couple because of how worried she seemed but she kept insisting that we weren't."

"Well, she was right about that." Clint said as he sat on the opposite end of the couch. "You two weren't dating but I think that may change with some time."

"What makes you think that?" Steve asked.

"If we let you go to this site, I promise that she is going to be there with you."
