Tumblr Writing Prompts: "Heard a rumor you've been arrested." / "Do you believe everything you hear?"
Get Me Out
Steve sat in front of his laptop, awkwardly pressing the keys as he typed a short text. He had somehow managed to subscribe for several magazines that he didn't read, and was now writing the cancellation. This world was still confusing to him, and he knew that Tony would make fun of him if he ever heard that Captain America had accidentally subscribed to a magazine about knitting patterns. Better get rid of the evidence now, he thought to himself.
Suddenly, his cell phone rung, and upon seeing Natasha's number on the screen, Steve hurried to pick up.
"Nat. I was wondering when you would call. Heard a rumour you've been arrested," he grinned, and he could imagine how the Russian was rolling her eyes on the other end of the line.
"Rogers, do you believe everything you hear?" she asked back, sounding a bit more than annoyed.
"Well, I read it in Tony's blog."
"As I said, you shouldn't believe everything that is written in the internet. Steve, anybody can publish information there, it's not a reliable..."
"How high is the bail, Nat?" Steve interrupted her, and his grin only widened upon hearing her resignated sigh.
"Five thousand dollar. I'll pay you back, and give you an extra fifty bucks if you don't ask what happened."
Steve turned his laptop off already and grabbed his leather jacket, unable to keep himself from laughing.
"I'll be there in thirty minutes, Nat. And don't worry, I already know what happened; Tony was very detailed in his post. I seriously consider not letting you go outside without me. We'll talk about this later."
