A/N: This is my first time posting anything like this. I wrote this up a while ago and finally decided to post it. Please ignore any spelling errors!

-Y/N gets hired by Tony for the rest of the team as a way to de-stress after missions

-Y/N gets used by most of the Avengers on the daily, but is always happy to please.

-Y/N is a switch but most of the Avengers are doms

-Y/N loves when they're lounging around and then someone will come up and just start fucking them no matter where it is

-living room? Fucked. Kitchen? Fucked. Meeting room? Fucked. Meeting room during a meeting? Oh honey you're in for a good time.

-Y/N has their own room and bed, but tends to sleep on the floor of someone else's room because that's what good pets do

-Y/N will sometimes get to sleep with someone for the night, usually Wanda who is a soft Dom and likes being called Mommy. She loves holding her baby. To Wanda you're her baby not her pet and that makes you feel special

-Nat is into some darker stuff that you didn't realize you liked until she introduced you to them (knife play, noncon con, somnophilia, omorashi, branding, dacryphilia, breeding)

-Nat has a dick and you would never pick favorites, but hers is your favorite

-Steve likes regular sex, but is super rough and into hair pulling and choking

-Loki uses his magic to make you fall fast into sub space and big on degrading.

-Thor is the opposite and only ever praises you he loves calling you princess

-Bucky is rough with you, but praises the whole time on how well you're doing, calls you doll as his nickname for you

-Bruce refused to use you at first and it wasn't until after him and hulk were able to live harmoniously that he fucked you, “Oh look at you big boy. I don't know if you'll fit like this.” “I'll make it fit and you'll take it all.” You do.

-Tony, Rhodey, Scott, Clint and Sam all don't fuck you as they have their own things going on.

-You thought Kate would be gentle with you, but she ends up being pretty rough and talks you through everything, grounding you in the moment which overwhelms you with pleasure.

-Yelena, who you thought would be rough, is actually a sub, a little at that. Her childhood ripped away from her and now she just wants ‘Mommy’ which you have no problems giving her.

-Tasha feels really uncomfortable at first when Yelena and Kate join the Avengers since Yelena is her sister.

-You understand why, but you have to remind her it's still your job

-Yelena is huge on physical touch and requires it often. Skin to skin is best.

-speaking of love languages you try your best with everyone's love languages as you all get to know each of them

-Steve is words of affirmation and quality time. Always tell him how good he's doing and you guys go on “dates” having dinner or watching a movie or doing a puzzle

-Bruce is acts of service and quality time. This usually involves you being in the lab and helping him whenever he needs it.

-Thor is WoA, physical touch, and quality time. He likes taking you out and experiencing new things

-Natasha is WoA and acts of service. You always praise her while you're fucking, “oh your cock is amazing! It fits me perfectly!” Saying things like that sends Nat over the edge.

-Loki is mainly all about physical touch. When you two are out he always has a hand or an arm on you

-Wanda's is quality time and WoA. You two love watching sitcoms her favorites are the old ones and yours are the new ones like The Office and Big Bang Theory

There comes a point where you realize that you actually love each and every Avenger, and it worries you that they only see you as a toy, but it's the farthest thing for them mostly.

if you still do avengers reqs, what would the avengers and y/n talk about in the avengers resident groupchat? y/n!stark x peter 🙏🙏

The Avengers Groupchat Would Include . . . 

Let’s start off with who’s in this groupchat: you (obviously), Peter, Tony, Natasha, Bruce, Steve, Clint, Wanda, Sam, Thor, Scott, Vision & Carol (Rocket was in the chat but he got kicked out, Ayo’s in there but she doesn’t chat much, Nebula would be there but she doesn’t get how to use a phone, Rhodey has better things to do than be in there)

Let’s be honest, Carol did not see the sense in her being there because there’s not gonna be WiFi throughout the galaxy.

“LTE, Carol!” — You, probably

Thor also didn’t really get it because there’s not WiFi on Asgard, but he’s too kind to say no

Naming the groupchat was hell. Every second, someone would change it (usually either you, Peter, or Sam) until Tony put his foot down and programmed FRIDAY to make it so no one could change it from “Avengers”

Natasha’s usually the one who sends reminders about training

Steve will send reminders about meetings 

Lots of pictures of each other are sent, mostly when they don’t know photos are being taken of them

The conversations range from someone asking what people want from the grocery store (Scott goes on grocery runs) to fierce debates over who’s the better fighter (It’s Nat, no one can beat her in sparring)

Tony will ask you and Peter if your homework is done (which you both annoyed, then Natasha yells at you)

It’s best to silence the notifications because they’re too, too much

Regular FaceTimes are a thing even though you’re usually all in the same tower

“Thor, your video cuts out when you go over Heimdall’s bridge.”

Wanda and Vision usually ask if they can double date with anyone (ends up being Scott and Hope or you and Peter)

Peter will send cute pictures of you that the Avengers ADORE. He’s tickling you? He’s recording a video. You fell asleep? He’s taking a picture.

“Peter, you’re not tickling her right. You have to get her knees.” — Tony

“DAD, STOP!”

Clint’s kids love to take his phone to chat with the Avengers

And they LOVE chatting with them

“Auntie Nat, when are you visiting!” “Soon!!”

Sam and Peter both send lots of memes

“I don’t get it.” — Steve

Bruce doesn’t talk much but you know who’s a great texter? THE HULK

Hulk is the king of keyboard smashes

“RERRRHDHDHSJSJS”

“Someone get Nat to do the lullaby.”

Hulk has smashed Bruce’s phone on multiple occasions tho

“Should I invent armor for Bruce’s phone?” — Tony

Yelena will steal Nat’s phone to troll the chat

Clint sends updates on his farm

Pepper will confiscate Tony’s phone when he needs to work so she’ll end up chatting

Everyone loves chatting to Pepper

Tony managed to get wifi on Carol’s ship so she’ll send updates from space

Thor tries to text, it doesn’t go great

When badgered by Natasha, Ayo will text

Nebula has occasionally hopped onto the group chat when Peter Q helps her

The group chat was SO ACTIVE when you and Peter went to prom

They were spamming the entire time, asking for pictures and updates and telling ya’ll not to drink

If anyone’s sitting out of a mission (usually you and Peter), they’ll text in the group chat to annoy those who are on the mission

“WE ARE DEEP UNDERCOVER SHUT THE FUCK UP” - Natasha

Getting Nat to swear in the group chat isn’t rare but it is dangerous

ALSO TEXTING STYLES

Vision, Ayo, and Steve text with perfect grammar, short and to the point (Steve has a tendency to go on tangents, though).

Tony’s style switches constantly depending on his mood

Natasha, Sam, Wanda, you, and Peter text with abbreviations and lowercase sometimes

Carol usually sends photos, not many texts. She’ll occasionally send an lol or lmao.

Scott is always cheerful. He uses lots of smiley faces.

Tony will put an ironic amount of obnoxious emojis.

Clint’s tired and his texting reflects that. As short as possible usually.

There’s always something chaotic going on

But there’s also some of the funniest moments

Typos? SAM WILL HARP ON YOU

So will Natasha

The Avengers are a family and they love each other so much, it’s definitely represented in the groupchat

Guarded Heart

Bucky Barnes x Reader

MobAu

Summary: Y/N is the daughter of a powerful mob boss who only cares about her horses and making it to the Olympics but her father expects her to marry an equally powerful boss to help strengthen his business. Bucky is looking for a wife to help his business and give him an heir but already has a long term girlfriend, Natasha.

Chapter 16

Warnings: swearing, angst

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As all the guests were arriving at the Barnes townhouse, Y/N held court in George's office. First speaking to Wanda and Pietro when they arrived. Steve and Sam helped him up the stairs. He had been shot in the thigh but was expected to make a full recovery. His doctors weren't pleased that he insisted on checking himself out of the hospital but there was nothing they could do.

They also spoke with Loki and George separately. She was trying to get a bead on where everyones heads were to help work out what comes next.

When the food arrived, Y/N sat at one end of the Barnes formal dining room table, Pietro to her right and Wanda to her left. At the other end is George Barnes with Bucky on his right, Steve on his left and Sam next to Steve. Filling the rest of the seats are Tony Stark with Happy and Rhodey, plus Loki, Hela, Val and Heimdal. Yelena was still in bad shape but insisted on being there. Attorney Matt Murdock sat quietly observing and taking notes.

While everyone ate the conversation was casual, catching up with associates that hadn't been together in a non violent situation in a long while. It was a bit stilted since everyone had the coming discussion in mind, trying to figure out how to keep their advantages while working with former rivals.

Once the dessert, brandy and coffee had been served George spoke up.

"I want to thank everyone here for coming tonight and more importantly for your help in the mess that Pierce and Dreykov created. We are stronger when we work together and keeping that in mind I am proposing new alliances to strengthen the old ones."

He looked at his son, then to Y/N, who nodded subtly.

"Right. I want to announce the merging of the Barnes and Y/L/N families. Y/N and my son James will marry in one month."

George watched his son as he made the announcement and Bucky went from surprised to delighted to confused.

Tony protested "Wait a damn minute, George. You expect her to honor her agreement after everything that has happened and the reality that your son shares a good portion of the blame for everything she's lost?

I don't know if I can allow that to happen."

Y/N kept her feelings closer to the vest, revealing nothing. She was still wary about trusting Bucky but she wasn't prepared to handle her fathers entire empire on her own and she trusted George. She also felt she could trust Steve in a pinch.

"Tony, Tony" she tried to stop him. When he looked at her he saw the resolve in her eyes "I know you're trying to look out for me but I already agreed to move forward with the marriage. I can't, I don't want to do this alone. I would much rather be spending time with my horses than all this mess. Bucky can run the business so that I'm only needed occasionally."

Tony shook his head "But what about-"

She smiled softly at him. "I've looked at all the angles and this is the least disagreeable way to keep the business going and have a little bit of a life separate from it. It'll be ok. I'll be ok" she said firmly.

Loki looked at her, concerned. He knew Thor's death hit her harder than she was willing to admit. When she returned his gaze he raised his eyebrows in question, was this really what she wanted to do? "Y/N? Are you sure about this, love? Heimdal and I would be happy to help you until you are ready to stand on your own."

Y/N smiled at Loki "I know and your friendship means the world to me but you've lost important members of your family because of me. I couldn't ask for anything else from you."

Loki shook his head "You didn't ask, I'm offering"

"I know but I also know you have some reorganizing to do yourself. Don't worry, I'll call if I need you. I promise."

Loki sighed "Very well but if I find out you're having trouble and you don't call me, we're going to have a problem"

She nodded in response.

Bucky finally remembered how to talk and had to throw in his 2 cents. "Wait, I never agreed to anything."

Y/N smirked at him "Of course you did. We both signed a contract that included marriage. I know everything has been chaotic but it hasn't been that long. We might need to tweak it a bit but it's still binding. Unless you aren't a man of your word" she looked at him with her eyebrow raised, questioning.

Bucky stuttered under her gaze "N-N-No! I am a man of my w-word. I just, you, but we-" he stopped to take a breath and gather his thoughts. "We need to speak privately. After this meeting." And sat back, arms crossed, face stoic except for the slight up turn at the corners of his mouth and a twinkle in his eyes.

Y/N nodded "Good. Now, Loki has agreed to take Yelena in on a probationary basis, once she's fully healed of course. She risked her life to give us information on Dreykovs plans which helped us take him down so we believe she deserves a chance. One chance" she looked at Yelena seriously, who nodded in response.

"Now, about dividing Pierce's territory...."

They spent 5 hours at that table, arguing over who would control what as the available territory was divided. Finally in the wee hours of the night an agreement was reached. No one was really happy but that's how compromises usually work.

Y/N was starting to feel the strain of being up for so long. She was still recovering from the loss of her arm and the grief from losing Thor was trying to push past the walls she had built up in recent days.

Bucky noticed that she was wobbling, straining to hold herself up at the table and he spoke up

"I think we need to call it a night." He glanced at his watch "It's past 3am and none of us have slept much in the last few days."

Everyone nodded and grumbled but Loki had one more concern "Does anyone know what happened to Zemo?"

Y/N roused for a moment "You guys lost Zemo?" She shivered "But he's vile. Might come after me, he never got over being dumped. I-"

Bucky shook his head "We will get him and Y/N, I promise I will keep you safe."

Everyone said their goodbyes and made to leave as Bucky helped Y/N upstairs. She was almost falling asleep as they walked up the stairs. He helped her get comfortable in his bed and tucked her in, kissed her on the forehead and whispered. "I promise I'll keep you safe."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three days later. Y/N still hadn't had a talk with Bucky. Every time he was around she went to his bedroom and locked the door, refusing to even acknowledge anyone who tried to speak with her.

Y/N had barely left Bucky's bedroom, leaving him with the lumpy fold out sofa in the den. She slept most of the time or would just lay there staring at the ceiling. Even her mother couldn't get her to eat much.

Today she had to get up. Today was Thor's funeral. The thought of it made her feel sick and she couldn't keep anything down at all that day.

She just went through the motions. Dressed up in a black dress with a matching veiled hat and black pumps she looked in the mirror and told herself. She could do this, she tried to convince the tired woman who she barely recognized.

The cemetery was crowded with cars, mostly black SUV's. There were so many people Y/N felt lost, gripping her mother's arm tightly. She was still unable to process the grief, the ache from losing Thor too fresh in her mind.

Bucky came up to her other side and gently rested his hand on her back, relieved that she didn't shrug him off this time. He guided them towards the grave site and was relieved when he saw Loki speaking quietly with his sister, Hela.

Loki saw them coming and excused himself from Hela to greet Y/N. "Y/N? Love? Are you alright?" He pulled her into his arms but she stood their stiffly, not returning his hug.

He pulled back to look at her face and she nodded woodenly, whispering "I'm fine" as tears welled up in her eyes.

Loki led her to the front row of seats and sat her down next to him, her mother and Bucky on her other side.

Bucky sat next to Y/N for the service, holding her flesh hand with his vibranium one. When the casket was being lowered she squeezed his hand and he gently returned it, so she knew he was there.

Her shoulders were shaking with the sobs she was trying to hold in but it all became too much and she couldn't anymore. Loud, gut wrenching sobs broke through and she couldn't stop them.

Y/N felt like her heart had been ripped from her chest and there was nothing left but emptiness. Thor had been by her side for years, starting as her trainer then friend then blossoming into something neither one of them wanted to deny, even though they knew the risks. No one knew her like he had and that loss felt like more than she could bear after everything else.

Y/N collapsed next to Thor's grave "N-n-no, I c-can't leave him here. It's t-too cold in the ground. Please don't make me leave him alone. I can't." She looked up at Bucky as he sat on the ground next to her "please, Jamie. Don't make me" she fainted and fell into his arms.

Can’t Help Falling In Love Chapter 5: Tony

Synopsis: Y/N has been an Avenger long enough to have developed feelings for Wanda.  A brief conversation with Tony Stark gives him the courage to finally ask her out on a date, but expectations aren’t always reality.

Pairing: Wanda Maximoff x Y/N

Characters: Y/N, Wanda Maximoff, Tony Stark

Warnings: Fluffity fluff fluff fluff

Word Count: 3.6K Chapter 4 | Chapter 3 | Chapter 2 | Chapter 1 | Story Masterlist | Masterlist

Nearly a month had passed since Y/N arrived at the Avengers compound.  He found it relatively easy to adapt to his new lifestyle.  Similar to the Navy, training as an Avenger was regimented.  He was used to having to be somewhere at a certain time to do a certain thing and having superiors to report to.  Granted it wasn’t the military so he had a lot more personal freedom than he was accustomed to.  But he found the transition back to civilian life the most challenging part.

His fellow Avengers made the transition easier.  Pietro had found him after hearing there was a fellow gamer living in the compound and the two bonded quickly.  Peter Parker, who still lived in Queens, frequently spent weekends at the compound for training exercises.  Y/N had started looking at him like a younger brother, as had Pietro, so the two decided to take him under their wing.  Tony had warmed up to Y/N some but still kept him at a bit of a distance.  Steve was Steve: a good leader and someone who understood the trials and tribulations of military life.  Both him and Y/N had killed many pots of coffee in the early morning hours having frank conversations about dealing with the aftermath of war.  Y/N found their conversations therapeutic.  Steve was one of the only ones who understood the certain things he’d experienced on deployment.  There was also Nat, Yelena, Kate, Thor, Clint, Sam, Bucky, Bruce, Scott, Carol…all of them were extremely warm and welcoming towards him.  And then there was Wanda.

Since his fateful first night in the compound the two had found any and every excuse to spend time together.  He would walk into daily briefings and find the chair next to her empty; she would always make excuses to go and find him when he was in the library; he miraculously found himself in the gym at the same time she was down there training her magic; she would always offer to pace him on his runs which always turned into a race at the end.  But beside these so-called “unplanned” meetings, Wanda and Y/N planned time together as well.  They could frequently be found in the lounge binging a show, eating dinner together, or going for long walks down by the river.  Each day Y/N found himself falling a little more in love with the red-haired witch.  But he never said anything to her.  He was too scared to put himself out there and make it real.  Vulnerability wasn’t his strong suit.  Emotions were meant to be shoved into a box and not talked about or expressed.  His line of work required him to keep his emotions under control at all times and that definitely spilled over into his personal life.  He was fighting all of that because he knew if he didn’t act soon someone else would come along and swoop her up.

One morning Y/n found himself in Tony’s workshop.  Tony had asked for his help on some new rocket designs for Rhodey.  It was the first time the two had a one-on-one interaction since Y/N first arrived at the compound.  Was he a little nervous?  Yes.  But he thought Tony had at least a modicum of respect for him and his abilities if he was asking for his advice.  He had been up there for quite some time working on the dummy rocket trying to figure out the most effective way to wire it and incorporate Bluetooth capabilities into its detonation system.  As he leaned over the bench and soldered wires into place, Tony stood over his shoulder and observed him.

“So it seems you’re settling in okay,” Tony noted.

“Yeah.” Y/N was only half-listening.  He was more interested in the rocket.

“I noticed you and Maximoff are spending a lot of time together.” He stared down at the rocket in Y/N’s hands.

“What?  Oh, yeah, he’s cool.  We game together.” He flipped his focus to the computer screen on his right, double checking the program that Tony wrote.

“I don’t mean Speedy Gonzales.  I meant the cute witchy one that you’ve been seen canoodling with,” Tony smirked.

Y/N nearly dropped the rocket.  “Woah, umm, Wanda?  You think Wanda and I are-?” He whipped his head around to see Tony staring back at him, eyebrows raised suspiciously.

“I don’t know, you tell me,” he taunted.

“Okay first of all, we don’t canoodle or whatever.  Second, we’re just friends.  We’re not dating or anything like that” His reply was more flustered than he wanted it to be.

“But you want to, right?” “What?”

“You want to date her.  Woo her, charm her, romance her…You don’t deny a rumor like that so, so, so passionately unless there’s some truth to it.  So let me ask again.  Do you want to date Wanda Maximoff?” His tone still retained a sense of playfulness to it, almost like he was enjoying torturing Y/N.

Totally embarrassed, Y/N nodded.

“So what’s stopping you?” Tony crossed to the stool next to Y/n’s and sat down.

Y/N shrugged.  “Not very good at it, I guess.  Don’t want to screw it up.”

“Right,” replied Tony as he crossed his arms and leaned back.  “Never try, never fail.  Good life motto if you never want to accomplish anything.  Can I give you some advice?” he asked as he leaned over to Y/N.

“Sure?”

“When you have something good, don’t throw it away.  I’ve been through my fair share of women, believe you me.  But Pep, man…she’s different from all of them.  I don’t want to lose her.  You know why?  Because she means something to me.  And that something, it makes all the difference.”

Y/N nodded.  Tony had a point.

“Look, just ask her out.  You two obviously like each other.  Take her to Giuseppe’s.  It’s like a fifteen minute drive into town.  I’ll let you borrow the Ferrari.  That’ll definitely get you laid,” he elbowed Y/N in the ribs.  “Listen, I’ve gotta go.  Something with Thor.” He hopped off his stool and headed for the door.  “Oh!” he exclaimed.  “She likes sunflowers.”

As he left, Y/N groaned and put his head in his hands, rubbing his forehead.  I’ve just gotta do it, he thought to himself.

After he finished up in the workshop, Y/N headed back to his apartment to get changed.  He figured a long run would help him clear his mind.  He exited the elevator, hung a left, and headed down the hall.  As he went to turn right down the next hallway, he nearly bumped into Wanda.

“Oh jeez, sorry,” she apologized.  “I didn’t realize you were there.”

“No it’s my fault.  I wasn’t paying attention,” Y/N choked out.  He could feel his heart beating in his throat. 

“Where were you this morning?  I missed you at sparring.”

“I was up with Tony.  He needed help on a rocket he’s working on for Rhodey’s suit,” he explained, rubbing the back of his head.  “It took most of the morning.”

“Well I’m headed to lunch.  Wanna join?” she asked.  She had that familiar twinkle in her eye she always had when it was just the two of them.

“No thanks.  I’m, uhh, I need to go for a run.”  He defused bombs for eight years.  Surely asking Wanda Maximoff on a date was easier than that.

“Oh.  Okay then.  See you later then,” she replied, her voice tinged with dejection.  She stepped around Y/n and headed around the corner.

“Wanda,” Y/N blurted before he realized what he was doing.  She turned and looked at him.  “Do you wanna go to dinner with me?”

Wanda opened her mouth to speak, but then closed it abruptly.  She tilted her head as she looked at him.  “Are you asking me on a date?” she implored.

“Well, uhh, yeah.” He felt himself blush.

She smirked.  “Alright.  Pick me up at 7?”

“Yeah, that works.”

“See you later then, Hemingway,” she winked as she walked away.

Y/N felt like he could explode.  A date with Wanda Maximoff?  It seemed too good to be true.  Suddenly he remembered what Tony had said so he whipped out his phone and shot off a quick text:

I’m picking her up at 7 tonight

He practically ran to his apartment to get changed.  Throwing off his shirt, he heard his phone vibrate.  It was Tony:

Reservations @ 7:30, keys in the car, car out front, condoms in the glove box ;)

Y/N chuckled as he shook his head.  Leave it to Tony to be Tony.  While he didn’t have any intention of sleeping with Wanda tonight, he wouldn’t say no to free condoms either.

The rest of the day dragged on unbelievably slowly.  The afternoon safety lecture, led by Bruce, lasted for what seemed like hours.  But he couldn’t help but notice how Wanda kept stealing glances at him and looking away.  The meeting lasted until 5:30 pm, so he raced back to his room afterward to get ready for his date.  He showered and trimmed his newfound beard and ironed his clothes for the evening: a french blue dress shirt with a charcoal grey suit and brown loafers.  He didn’t have to go far seeing as Wanda lived right across the hall from him.  After throwing his jacket on, he took one last look at himself in the mirror.  Not bad, he thought.  He buttoned his jacket, grabbed his wallet, and opened the door to find a bouquet of sunflowers and a note lying at his feet.  He crouched to grab both and looked at the note.

You’re welcome - Tony

He smiled as he tucked the note into his back pocket.  As he walked to Wanda’s door, he took a deep breath to calm himself down.  Once he didn’t feel like he would immediately throw up if he opened his mouth, he knocked.

Wanda opened the door a moment later.  She looked stunning in her black dress and heels.  A tan overcoat and black handbag were draped over one arm.

“Hi,” she smiled.

“Hi,” he replied.  “Wow.  Wanda, you look incredible.” She blushed at his words.

“Thanks,” she murmured.  She looked at him before she noticed the flowers he was clutching.  “Are those for me?” she asked.

“Yeah.  Tony said sunflowers are your favorite.” He awkwardly thrust the bouquet at her.

“Well that was sweet of him, wasn’t it?” she replied, conjuring a vase out of magic and placing the flowers in it.  “Ready to go?”

“Yeah, the car’s out front,” Y/N replied.  “We’ve got 7:30 reservations at Giuseppe’s.”

“Fancy shmancy,” she grinned as they headed down the hall.

It took a little while but Y/N eventually found where Tony had parked the sleek red Ferrari.  Wanda’s eyes widened when she saw the expensive car.  He quickly reassured her that no, he hadn’t stolen it and yes, it was their ride for the evening.

Dinner was…fine.  The food was delicious, the restaurant itself dimly lit and romantic.  But there was a nervous energy between Y/N and Wanda.  He couldn’t help but think that he was blowing it.  He felt awkward and uneasy, which was the exact opposite of how he normally felt with her.  Conversation was peppered with awkward pauses and the two nervously interrupted each other.  It seemed like this would probably be their only date.

They sat in a pregnant silence as Y/N drove them back to the compound.  As he parked the car, they continued to sit in that awful silence.  He drummed on his thighs as he stared out the front window.

“So…”

“That was f-”

“I’m sorry!” Y/N blurted.

“You’re…sorry?” Wanda questioned.  “What are you sorry for?” She was totally confused.  Sure the date had been a little awkward, but she’d been completely alone with Y/n and had commanded his attention for the entire evening.  She absolutely adored him.  He was everything she wanted in a partner and so much more: kind, considerate, funny in his own weird way, level-headed, attractive, a hopeless romantic when it came to literature, a great sparring partner, her list went on and on.  She hadn’t been able to get him out of her mind since the first day they met and was plucking up the courage herself to ask him out on a date if he hadn’t done so when he did.

“Yeah!  I mean I don’t know.  I felt all awkward and weird and I never feel that way when I’m around you.  But I blew it and I’m sorry because I really like you and I was hoping this would go well because, well, y’know, I like you…and I’m definitely making things worse now,” he groaned as he slammed his head forward onto the steering wheel.  He turned his head to look at Wanda, who was glancing down at him from the passenger seat.  “Please say something,” he begged.

Wanda looked at him, sighed, unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the door, and left.

Well shit, he thought, laying his head back on the steering wheel and accidentally hitting the horn.  He signed as he slid his head up.  Suddenly he heard the door open and felt the unusually warm night breeze caress the side of his face.  He looked to his left and saw Wanda standing in front of him.

“Do you trust me?” she asked.

Y/N didn’t respond.  Her accent always made his heart flutter.

Wanda leaned down closer to him.  “Do you trust me?” she whispered, extending her hand to him.  He nodded as he unbuckled his seatbelt and shot out of the car.  Time slowed as he watched her grab his hand.  They interlaced their fingers as he observed the unfamiliar sight.  Her fingers were long and svelte while his were coarse and calloused from years of manual labor.  Despite their differences it felt as if their hands were made to hold each other.  He brushed his thumb against hers, soaking in the softness of her skin and the coolness of the ring on her thumb.  He was so engrossed in their entwined hands that he failed to notice the way she was staring at him as he stared at their hands.

“My hands are sweaty, aren’t they?” Y/N realized a moment later.  

“Just a little,” murmured Wanda.  Y/n moved to pull his hand away in order to wipe it on his pants, but Wanda squeezed a tighter grip around it.  He looked up at her, their eyes locked in a moment frozen in time.  “It’s okay, I don’t mind.” She smiled as she gave his hand a reassuring squeeze.

Y/N chuckled nervously.  Locking eyes with Wanda suddenly made him nervous, so he quickly looked back down at their hands.  

“Come on,” Wanda pleaded as she pulled him away from the car.  “I have an idea.” Not wanting to lose her, Y/n did a quick jog step to catch up with her.  The pair walked hand in hand through the parking lot.

“Where are we going?” he wondered.

Wanda shot him a knowing glance.  “You’ll see,” she replied, her lips curling into a soft smirk.  They kept walking, stopping momentarily so Wanda could remove her heels as they reached the grass and headed for the familiar trail she’d led him down his first night at the compound.  They made their way over to the small beach.  “Come on.  We can sit here and watch the stars.”

Y/N stopped suddenly as Wanda pulled away and came to the water’s edge.  He studied the way she moved, the way she looked, the way she existed in that moment.  She was a sight unlike any he’d ever seen before.  He watched as she sat on the ground and shivered at the coolness of the earth.  She motioned for him to do the same.  He sat, sticking his legs straight out and leaning back on his hands.  She hugged her knees into her chest.  They sat in silence looking out at the dark horizon for what seemed like hours, occasionally switching their gaze to the unknowing other.

“You didn’t blow it,” Wanda finally broke the silence.  “If anything I blew it.  I didn’t even know what to say to you, and I always know what to say to you.  But it felt so weird being in such a fancy place.  I’m not like that and I know you’re not like that either.”  She gently rocked herself back and forth.

Y/N laughed.  “Well I have to be honest…most of it was Tony’s doing.”

“Tony?”

“He suggested the restaurant…and loaned me the Ferrari…and bought the sunflowers…and the condoms.” He practically whispered the last one.

Wanda roared with laughter.  “He bought you CONDOMS?  What, too scared to go buy them yourself?!”

Y/N felt himself blush as Wanda continued laughing at him.  “No!  No I’m not!  I didn’t even ASK him to go get condoms.  That was all his idea!  I have my own…wait, shit, that sounds like-okay listen-I didn’t ask you out just to get in your pants.  That’s not what this is!”

“He’s such a weirdo,” she shook her head.  “I know you weren’t asking me out just to hook up.  Besides, I never sleep with anyone until at least the third date,” she teased.  Y/N wondered if the temperature had randomly risen as he pulled at his collar.  “Kidding, kidding,” she added as she brushed a strand of hair behind her ear.

Y/N exhaled in hopes that his heart rate would soon slow.  “So why’d you bring me out here?”

“Because I knew we could be ourselves here.  No fancy restaurant, no fancy car, no weird first date pressure.  It’s just me and you.  And I like it when it’s just me and you.”

“I’m not good with feelings, Wanda,” he admitted as he turned to look at her.  “I tend to keep things bottled up.  But when I’m with you I don’t feel like I have to.” He gulped.  “Look, I like you.  Like I really, really like you.  I’ve liked you since the first day I met you and I haven’t been able to get you out of my mind since then.  And it’s not just that you’re beautiful, because you are the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my entire life and like, wow, I mean you look stunning tonight…but I love spending time with you and talking to you because you’re an absolutely incredible person.  And I like-”

He was suddenly interrupted as she crashed her lips into his.  They were soft and sweet against his, as were her hands against his cheeks.  The taste of her lips was intoxicating.  She broke away far too soon for his liking as he felt himself practically begging for the feel of her body pressed up to his.  As she leaned back he couldn’t help but notice that her eyes, illuminated by the full moon, were tinged red with desire.  There was a palpable tension in the air as the two gazed into each other’s souls.

Wanda smiled .  “You talk too much, you know that?”

Y/N smirked as he pushed himself to a more upright sitting position.  “Well, I think I’ll talk a little less then.” He reached forward and cupped her cheek, leaning in close as he greedily eyed her plump red lips.  “How’s that sound?”

“Stop talking,” she breathed as she leaned forward and threw her hands around his neck.

He smiled as he closed the distance between them, kissing her eager lips as she sighed into him.  This kiss was longer, more passionate.  One kiss turned into two into four into many into Wanda lying on her back with Y/N on top of her, kissing and caressing and exploring each other in the pale moonlight.

“If we keep going I’m not gonna want you to stop,” Wanda gasped.  Y/N chuckled as he kissed her neck.  She playfully pushed against his chest.  “Stop,” she laughed as he continued to plant kisses up and down her neck and jaw.

“And if I don’t?” he whispered in her ear, his voice deep and sultry.  Wanda shuddered at the implication.  She turned her head slightly and was practically nose to nose with a panting Y/N.  A mischievous gleam in his eye told Wanda exactly what he wanted to do to her.

“Y/N,” she said.

“Okay fine.  Fine,” he relented.  “Just one more kiss?” he pleaded.

Wanda giggled as she pulled the lapels of his jacket towards her, craning her neck up as his lips intertwined with hers.  Without any warning he used his tongue to part her lips and slid it into her mouth.  She moaned into his mouth as their tongues wrestled for dominance before he abruptly broke the kiss.

“Yeah, time to stop,” he gasped.  “I, umm, I’m gonna need a cold shower after this.” He pushed himself off of her and back onto his knees.  Wanda scooched herself up into a sitting position.  As he adjusted his shirt, she couldn’t help but stare at him.

“I had a good time tonight,” she said.  She meant every word.

“Same time tomorrow?” he grinned.

“Only if we do it without any help from Tony,” she responded as she twisted one of the many rings on her fingers.

Y/N scratched his head as he thought for a moment.  “Okay.  Chinese food, Great British Bake Off, my place?”

“I’ll be waiting.”

He helped Wanda up.  As they walked to the compound hand in hand, he gave her a reassuring squeeze.  And in the soft darkness he heard a small voice echo through his head:

Don’t let go, Hemingway.  Don’t ever let me go.

Chapter 45: Battle of a Lifetime

Chapter 44 | Masterlist | Chapter 46 | Words: 2,048

Nat's POV

Tony's right time sure has a funny way of fucking right back with you...

————-

"Well, I don't know if I'd say okay, but I'm alive... Did it work?"

"No clue, we're all trying to get out of the rubble, to find out what happened."

"No clue, we're all trying to get out of the rubble, to find out what happened."

"Time happened." Tony grumbles.

"Yeah, I was in the middle of catching Nebula tampering with the quantum console. I'm pretty sure that wasn't our Nebula that we've grown accustomed to. Which means that —."

"Thanos is here." Tony says.

"Yeah, that's what I was going to say, Thanos is a possibility."

"No, he's here. Thor, Banner, and I are staring down at him." Tony announces.

"Shit, where's the gauntlet?"

"I have it." Clint says, finally making his presence known.

"Keep it that way, stay away from the big purple guy."

"No pressure..." He humorlessly chuckles out into the comms.

I eventually make it out of the rubble, and see Tony, Thor and Bruce giving Thanos all they got. Bruce was down first, seeing as how he had just finished using the stones to bring everyone back.

*Natasha, where are you?*

*Top of the hill, watching them fight*

*We need to find out of this worked... If not, I'm afraid we're outnumbered*

*Well, numbers never mattered before, I'm headed down to help, you keep an eye out for Clint and guard him...*

She nods before taking off to find the archer, as I make my way down to join the fight. I see Tony all but knocked out, but still trudging towards him. Thor's down for the count, and the Bruce-Hulk hybrid is looking rough.

"In all my years of conquest... Of violence and slaughter...it was never personal" Thanos begins to laugh out, staring mockingly at the tiny group of us, as Rhodey, Rocket and Scott have finally reemerged.

"But I'll tell you now, the things I'm about to do to your stubborn, annoying, little planet... I'm going to enjoy it. Very, very much." He continues, a devilish smirk taking over his face, as he gestures behind him at the masses of aliens he's brought with him.

All of us jump back, as our comms start going haywire, and I know it's not Wanda trying to communicate, because she'd just commander my mind.

"I'm back bitches!"

"We're!"

My heart skips a beat at the sound of their voices, and I turn around to see a sea of orange portals opening with hundreds of honorary Avengers exiting.

It takes everything in me not to run towards them, but our focus needs to be on the alien army ahead, so I straighten my posture, stare directly into the titans eyes, and press on my comms.

"Avengers... Assemble..." I command, in honor of my late friend, as we all advance towards Thanos and his army.

Y/N's POV

The wizard who collected Yel, and I gave us a three second rundown of what was up. Apparently we took a two year hiatus from life, which is devastating to hear, but my focus is on making the titan disappear, reunions will have to wait.

I ran out towards the titan himself, while Yelena nodded at me and went to Natasha's side to fight off aliens.

"Hey!! You freaky ass bitch, let's tussle!" I shout at the Titan, prepared to throw his ass for a loop.

He turns to me amused, then his face contorts into an unreadable expression. Before I can even move to attack, Wanda drops in front of me, surrounded by an overflowing of her red magic, and I can feel the anger that's coursing through her.

"You tried to take everything from me." She seethes.

"I don't even know you." He condescends.

"Oh, you will!" I laugh out, while she raises her hands and bombards the titan with massive pieces of rubble.

I watch her in awe, as she's practically got the titan in a choke hold, then I hear him muttering nonsense.

"Rain fire!" He shouts, as his armor was slowly being ripped off his body.

I look up just in time to see projectiles flying our way, I'm able to derail most of them with my powers, but eventually Wanda's thrown out of the sky. I swiftly run to catch her falling body, then Thanos is no longer before us.

"Hey Wands..." I coo, as I gently trace the gash on her face.

"Hey Y/N/N.." She whimpers, as she reaches up to cup my cheeks.

"I want nothing more than to have a big happy reunion, but I gotta go bestie, I have to end this. Stay here and catch your breath, I'll be back shortly." I gently relay, as I lean her against a wall of rubble, then kiss her cheek before I run off in search of the gauntlet.

"What's it shooting at?" Sam says through the comms, and I look up to see the ships redirected it's aim.

"Friday, what's it shooting at?" Tony says

"That must be Carol." I beam, as I see the shooting star of a human flying through the ship.

Once I see she's got that taken care of, I once again set my sights on finding the stones. The wizard kept repeating something about "We only have one chance to fix this." Even though he was talking to all of us, I felt his stare ominously lingering on me every time.

His consistent staring, mixed with Thanos's reservations whenever I'm near, leads me to believe that me and the stones are closer than I'd imagined.

"Who's got the gauntlet?"

"Clint does, why?" Natasha asks, clearly skeptical of me.

"Hey, birdboy, you came out of retirement?? Yay us! Now, where are you?"

"Good to hear your voice again you little shit, I'm where the compound once stood, however I passed the gauntlet off to the King of Wakanda."

Great, we're now playing hot potato gauntlet with the stones.

"Copy that, thanks birdboy."

"Y/N, what do you need the gauntlet for?" Nat questions through a grunt, fighting off an alien while worrying about me I presume.

"Natty, baby, I'm just trying to do my part." I cryptically reply.

I look around the field, noticing the king is gauntlet-less, then I turn to see the actual child cowering behind rubble, while clinging onto something for dear life.

Carol's next to him, taking the gauntlet, because apparently Antman's got a van with time traveling abilities. While they try out their way, I look around the field to see the beaten down forms of my friends.

Thanos is clearly enjoying the beat down, so I decide to jump directly into the fight. Thor's currently fallen to the ground, so I run up beside him, and lift him back up.

"Stay up big guy, we will win this time." I state with a reassuring smile, and he flashes me a far less charming one, as his mouth is blood stained.

"Lady Y/N, oh how I've missed your reckless optimism."

I wink, then for the hell of it, I attempt to lift Moljnir, and to my utter shock it actually works.

"I knew it!" He shouts excitedly, then Thanos throws him backwards as he hits his double bladed sword against his armor.

Before he could hit me as was his obvious strategy, Tony was flying into him in his suit, which pushes Thanos back a few feet. Thanos is clearly growing annoyed, so he lifts my brother up and tosses him roughly across the field.

I swing the hammer rapidly, trying to build up momentum, as I hear the crackling of lightning. I run full force ahead, then I jump up against some rubble, screaming out,

"Parkour!"

Then I drop down, slamming the hammer to the ground, I watch the lightning roll across the ground, knocking down at least a hundred aliens, and causing Thanos to stumble. I quickly get to my feet, then throw the hammer Thanos's way, causing him to fall backwards with a grunt.

I use the distraction to run towards Tony, and open his mask to see he's also knocked out.

"Friday, read vitals." I mutter.

"It appears there's no life threatening injuries, just a simple K.O. as the boss would say."

I look down to see his peaceful expression, as if the world isn't ending, I'm sure he's dreaming of game day or something less PG. My eyes land on his suit, and I notice he's fixated a gauntlet attachment over it.

"Friday, detach the gauntlet attachment."

"Miss Stark, I'm not sure that's a good idea."

"Friday, trust me, it's a matter of life or death here."

"As you wish." She states, as she unlocks the attachments and it separates from his arm.

I slip the pieces back together over my right arm, and feel as it forms perfectly to my body.

I look up from Tony to see the crowd around me's gone almost silent, locking eyes with Strange as he's desperately trying to keep the battlefield from flooding. He curtly nods in my direction, as my gaze pans over to see Thanos's body surge with energy, much like the last time I'd encountered him.

He chuckles darkly through the pain, as he begins to pan around the field, taking in the destruction he brought to our world.

"I am inevitable." Thanos proclaims triumphantly, as he snaps his fingers once more, but his face drops when he hears the clanking of an empty gauntlet.

I successfully, and quickly float the stones through the air—before he notices, and looks to me with a knowing glare.

"Yeah, yeah.. and I'm Y/N Stark, and I'm one powerful bitch." I painfully laugh out, as I raise my arm to reveal the gauntlet and stones I had swiped from my brother and Thanos.

Blessed be my invisibility... and Tony's temporarily knocked out form...

The pain was excruciating, but I pushed passed it, as I moved to snap, then I felt the pressure of it all lessen drastically. I look down to see Wanda holding my hand, as Carol holds hers.

I quickly smile widely at the two, then I snap my fingers, and see the beginning of Thanos's army fading to dust. I feel Wanda's hand slip from mine, as I feel my body crumple to the ground. My mind's foggy, and I notice Wanda and Carol are already unconscious, but I do my best to remain conscious.

Nat's POV

I looked up to see Thanos, winning once again. I desperately looked around for Y/N, wanting to at least share one final kiss before we're all dusted for good. Then I see her face, it's not devastated, but more so determined, then I catch a glimpse of metal where her hand should be.

"No!" I shout, and her eyes find mine, as they fill with tears of desperation.

"I love you Natty, it's going to be okay." She mouths to me, then I see her lift her arm, revealing the gauntlet and the stones.

She was about to snap, then Wanda and Carol looked to be absorbing some of the energy. I helplessly watch as she snaps, and then I watched as all of their bodies hit the ground, and I sprint towards them.

"Y/N, baby... Please don't leave me again, I can't do this without you."

"Shh, it's okay... I love you, Natty." She incoherently mumbles, then her hand drops from my cheek and I sob.

"Solnyshko... Wake up!" I hear Yelena sob as she drops to my side, shaking Y/N's body, and I just pull her into me.

"Friday! Read vitals." I hear Tony groan out, as he limps over.

"They all appear to be in a comatose state, sir, I can only recommend that you get them hooked up to monitors and IV's.

I lean down, placing a gentle kiss to her cracked lips, while my tears transfer to her cheeks. Then I pull back to allow Tony space to fly her to Cho.

"You're such an idiot, don't you die on me!" I whisper to her as Tony scoops her up and flies off.

[Masterlist] [Part 2]

・ ‥…━━━━━━━━━━ ⧗ⴵ⧗ ━━━━━━━━━━…‥ ・

The cool wind blew around her fairly and autumn was right around the edge. Y/N didn't mind the cold since it wasn't too extreme for her to handle but she still wore a coat to keep herself warm. Ohio offered its fair share of beauty and one of them being the nature around the area she was in. So as she parked her motorcycle near the pathway she neatly removed her helmet and fixed her hair a bit. She was grateful that the bouquet that she brought wasn't harmed on the way since it sat on the back seat. The last thing she wanted was to have most of them fly away during the ride. Y/N smiled at how beautiful the tulips were while she walked her way to the spot. Natasha wasn't the only one who was settled here. There were others, but most of them were nameless or graves are just carved with quotes. It didn't bother her. She only came for her friend after all. There was a tree in the middle and there she immediately spotted it and she came to a halt, sighing at the sight of the stone.

Natasha Romanoff. Daughter, Sister And Avenger.

Y/N read and smiled sadly at her infamous Black Widow logo that was plastered on the middle. Her grave was filled with flowers, pictures, and letters from what it seems to be from fans. Natasha saved the universe after all, but sadly it came with the price of her sacrificing herself for everyone else. That included Y/N. She stood there quietly with a small smile on her face while remembering the moments she had with the Russian. All the shared laughs, missions, and meals will always be something to cherish. It saddens her that she was unable to see her again after coming back with the rest of the people who were dusted. Y/N was in Wakanda with the others and the last person she saw was Wanda silently crying while holding onto the corpse of Vision. For her, it was a frightening experience. One moment she was shoved by a mad Titan and the next was that she felt the worst twist in her stomach before disappearing.

But here she was now, alive, and have no absolute idea on what the hell she's supposed to do with her life. Tony and Natasha were dead and Steve is actually old, but the rest of her friends continue to do their jobs. Clint and Scott lived happily with their families, Bucky was pardoned for his crimes, Sam and Rhodey were working, Carol, Thor, and the Guardians were back in space, and she had no idea where the hell Bruce, Maria, Fury, and Wanda were. Y/N could go back on saving people though she felt conflicted. While the former Avenger was stuck in her thoughts, she barely felt the presence beside her. The person froze at first when they saw her earlier, but when they were able to understand that Y/N was too deep in her world and figured that she seemed harmless. Though even if she wasn't sending bad signals, the stranger still kept a cautious approach. It was only when words were spoken that she snapped out of it.

"What did you get her?" The voice was feminine and had a recognizable accent. 

Russian.

"Oh uh-" Y/N blinked a couple of times before she looked at the flowers she held in her arms and blushed all bashful.

"She never really told me what her favorite flowers were so I just bought white tulips." She continued before looking back at the person and was rather caught off guard with the sight of a beautiful young woman. The way her blonde hair blew a little from the wind made it feel a little magical, to begin with. Like she was some fairytale princess. She had multiple piercings on her ears and her hazel eyes radiated curiosity, but also a hint of heedfulness. Y/N noticed them but was too occupied with admiring her appearance. She did admit, the woman before her was undeniably stunning.

"Tulips?" The woman questioned with what seemed an amused tone before shoving her hands in her jacket while Y/N placed her flowers down to her friend's grave.

"I mean I only knew a quarter of her life since she chose to keep it and I don't see a problem with that. All that mattered was that she was a good sister figure and a temporary partner to me." Y/N shared as she smiled at the moments Natasha had her back.

"She had my back and I had hers."

A hum was heard from her company. It seemed she was interested or maybe she was just trying to be genuine, she didn't think about it deeper and just appreciated that she wasn't alone. Y/N could have predicted that she would have probably cried and talked to the stone about how she was feeling at the moment. Even if she didn't look at her Y/N could tell that the blonde studied her closely. She didn't mind her at all and at the same time, she couldn't blame her for being suspicious of her presence. Right now all she could care about was how much she had shared her life with the redhead.

"I met her when she joined Shield. Everyone kept their distance as if she was the plague and so did I at first. But slowly I felt bad for how she was treated and tried offering her company now and then." Y/N reminisced about her early days with the organization. The woman tilts her head at the story of how they were introduced and listened carefully.

"She was hard to approach, but I put up a tremendous amount of patience and trust in her even with what everyone whispered."

Natasha was indeed a challenge. Y/N was aware that the redhead disliked her being around on the first week. One notable thing that she kept in her mind was to be careful of physical touch because when she tried to slap her back in a friendly matter the redhead's defensive instinct immediately pinned Y/N on the floor. Needless to say, she was quick to learn her lesson after that incident. Even Maria laughed when she heard what happened and Fury was shaking his head in a disapproving manner. But even if the progress felt slow in the early stages of their partnership, the results were rewarding to experience. Getting to encounter Natasha initiate conversation first and talk about herself without asking her meant she was starting to trust her.

Though those memories seem to only keep her grief grow. Y/N took a deep breath and puffed. Curiosity then struck her about her company.

"What about you, what's your story with Nat?" Y/N asked as she turns her head to the blonde and there she earned a skeptical look. It made her laugh and raise her hands in surrender.

"Not to be suspicious, but you appear to be someone close to her." She watches as her face relax a little.

"Sister." The woman softly answered.

Y/N then had her eyes widen from the response with her lips forming an 'o'. She could have sworn she was probably an old Shield agent or a friend from her home, but sister? That was definitely out of the options she thought. Y/N felt a little sheepish now that she realized she thought Natasha’s sister was attractive. She could feel Nat’s burning gaze from the afterlife. It was the blonde's turn to chuckle this time at her reaction and shake her head. Y/N took a mental note to try making her laugh more for how adorable her eyes crinkle a little.

"Technically we were pretending to be sisters, but it felt like she was my real sister to me." She added with a sigh.

"And if I remember correctly, you're the one with the water abilities. She mentioned you when we met again." Y/N awkwardly laughed and rubbed the back of her neck before facing her to reach out her hand.

Y/N was an enhanced individual with hydrokinesis. She uncovered it when she was younger and it was one of the things that got her a good position in Shield and later on came in handy when she joined the Avengers. There was never any explanation for her to have such abilities, but she was not one to be unappreciative of them.

"I-I'm Y/N, but I figured you probably already knew that." She stuttered as she introduced herself, blushing a little from facing the blonde.

"Yelena, I mean it definitely wouldn't be weird of me to casually call your name."

Yelena had a small smirk when she took her hand and shook it softly. It seemed to Y/N that the world slowed down from the handshake and could cause her entire face to go tomato red. Just the touch of her hand caused a spark in her veins. Y/N thought it was such an unbelievable to encounter. Though as she wanted to keep that moment longer for her, sadly the world went back to normal speed, and that something barked near them. The sound quickly snapped her out of her thoughts and looked for the source. A dog came into her vision and she watches as the furry fellow ran to Yelena.

“Oh and this is Fanny.” She introduced her dog who barked at the mention of her name. Y/N giggled at the sight of her.

“Hello, there little cutie!” She greeted before looking at Yelena. “May I?” Y/N asked for permission and saw Yelena nod. She then excitedly bent down to match Fanny’s height and petted her. The dog seems to like the attention as she scoots closer to her.

Yelena couldn’t help but smile at what she was seeing. A cute girl smiling while petting her cute dog. It was a rare sight to see. A thought then came into her mind and could not help but ask Y/N.

“Hey, do you want to grab a drink?” Yelena shoots her shot and the girl looked up with bright eyes.

“O-Oh uh- I don’t mind at all.” Y/N stammered while internally cursing at herself for being so flustered around the blonde. Though she could have sworn that Yelena was slightly blushing when she heard her agree.

Y/N wouldn’t have ever thought she’d get to meet anyone from Natasha’s family, let alone a sister and her adorable dog. Now that she thought about it she was glad to come all this way just to visit her. Yelena comes across to be a good company to have around and was also someone intriguing to get to know. Little did Y/N know that the blonde assassin felt the same as well about her.

Y/N gasped, looking around as she awoke. There was a soft light in the room. She recognized it as the med-room in the Tower. She realized something was on her face and moved her arm to take it off. She grabbed the top off it, feeling that it was an oxygen mask, and pulled it off. She sat up and looked around, finding that she was the only one in there. She pulled the IVs out of her arm and was surprised that nothing went off. She got out of the bed and began to walk to the door. She grabbed a syringe, just in case she needed to fight back, and walked out of the room. 

She walked down the stairs and into the library. Pulling the book she walked down the dim hall to the "meeting room”. She stopped in front of the automatic door, hearing voices inside. She faintly recognized them as Sam, Bucky, Wanda, Natasha, and Peter’s.

“She’s gonna lose it when she finds out about her father.”

“Do you think she’ll still cooperate?”

She could hear Wanda’s sigh, “With her dad still being out there? There’s no guarantee.”

“We’ll figure--” Natasha started.

“Just tell her when--” The door opened and Peter stopped speaking when his eyes laid on her.

Everyone turned their heads to look at her. She let in a shaky breath when she saw who all was in the cave. Those who she already knew: Sam, Bucky, Wanda, Natasha, and Peter. However, a few others were there too: Tony, Vision, Steve, Clint, Bruce, Thor, Rhodey, Scott, Carol, and Hope. No one who had one was even in their suits. Everyone dressed normally. Vision was even looking like a normal person and not a robot.

Bucky smirked while Peter turned away from her and Sam sighed. Everyone else just looked down at their hands. Bucky walked towards her and took the syringe out of her hand. After pushing her into a wall as she went after him. Plus he had to do it just to make it hard for her to be able to move. When he pushed her into the wall was when she noticed Loki and Yelena. She attempted to speak, but it came out as a hoarse whisper. “What are you doing with them?”

He just ignored her question and moved her arms to be over her head and held them both with one and took the syringe with the other. “You and a syringe against a bunch of 'heroes’?” He walked away slightly and let go of her wrists. And he tossed the syringe across the room so she couldn’t get it. “That is why no one allows you to make the plans.”

She stared at the god and the spy and it was as if Bucky knew she was about to pounce on them, he held her against the wall again. So she was left with just speaking in the hoarse whisper. “What the hell are you two doing here?”

Yelena was the one to speak, “Stop Bucky stop.” She looked at Y/N, “Y/N, just listen. Please.”

Tony was the next to speak, “With your father watching you, it was too risky for us to tell you our plan.”

Y/N finally pushed Bucky off of her when she felt his weight shift. He sighed and motioned for one of the empty seats at the table. “Sit.”

When she didn’t move, Clint walked over and grabbed her arm and gently pulled her over, sitting her in the empty seat next to him. Her actual seat. He took the bowl that Rhodey was handing him and placed it in front of her. “Eat. You’ll feel better.”

But she didn’t. She just stared at the bowl as Steve started to speak. “If we had told you what we were planning, it wouldn’t have worked. We knew your father was watching you thanks to Loki and Yelena pretending to be on his side, we were able to find you.”

Natasha spoke, adding something that triggered something in Y/N, “Bucky helped to create the plan. Then he told me so I could carry it on to my sister and Loki.”

Other words were said, but she didn’t acknowledge them. All that she could think of was how Bucky promised to protect her and yet her father still got her. And now she was being told that it was all apart of some plan that everyone was in on? That she was supposed to get taken so they could send everyone that was helping her father to jail again. So they could get some silence for a short time before one of them broke out again.

And she had no idea why she did it, but it was as she stared at her fingers, noticing that they still were almost as perfect as they were for the wedding that something in her snapped. She slowly looked up at Bucky. Not caring that everyone in the room could easily take her down. She quickly stood up and jumped over the table towards him. It was as if he was expecting it as he quickly pulled his arms up to protect him. She still got him. 

Somebody pulled her away but she elbowed them in the nose and ran over to Bucky again and began to slam her fists on his chest in anger. But even though she was angry, she was sobbing in pain. She was hurt that he let it happen. “You promised he wouldn’t get me!” It was barely recognizable due to the painful sobs coming from her. “You promised me! You lied! You’re a liar!” It came out even worse than the previous statement. He was probably the only one who heard her. But she didn’t care. She just kept repeating the two statements. You promised me! You’re a liar! You promised me! You’re a liar!

She didn’t know how long later it was, but soon she felt stab in her left and right sides. It didn’t take long for the effects of the drug to take place. Her vision soon began to blur and she began to lose whatever balance she had and fell to the ground. But she fought passing out. Even as she was on the floor, she fought it. 

She felt someone carefully lift her up and she was about to attack them until she saw it was Peter. She shut her mouth and focused on him. Faintly hearing him say something. Probably that he was taking her back to the room as they soon left the cave. It was as they exited the library that he finally spoke to her, “I didn’t know.” She didn’t realize what he meant until he said the following statements. “Neither did Vision, Clint, Bruce, Thor, Rhodey, Scott, and Hope. None of us knew of Barnes’s plans.”

She didn’t know why she said it because it wasn’t true. “I know.”

He looked down at her and smiled, “No you didn’t. You may know a lot of things, but that wasn’t one of them. You had no idea that we didn’t know.”

She felt herself being lowered down and soon felt the soft mattress behind her. “Maybe, but I’m happy knowing that at least I wasn’t the only one in the dark.”

He pulled the blankets over her and he pulled the chair next to her, “I was terrified when he and Wilson pulled me. They actually told everyone that you were just sick and I tried to believe it, but I knew it wasn’t true.” He carefully took her hand in his, “I-I thought that you were dead when we got you. You...you were so still and cold. Your lips had turned blue and your skin looked like it was as pale as it could get..”

“I’m sorry.”

He shook his head, “Whatever do you have to be sorry for? None of this was your fault.” He was right, it wasn’t her fault, but she still felt like she had to say it. He kissed the back of her hand, “Go to sleep. I’ll see you more in the morning, okay?”

She nodded and closed her eyes. Sleep soon coming to her.

The Hydra Healer

Chapter 7: Cooking

Yelena leads you to the kitchen. “So Wanda sometimes cooks for all of us, but most of the time we all just cook for ourselves. Or, just eat pop tarts for every meal, like Thor. But you can cook any time you want.” Yelena opens the fridge and your jaw drops. It's so full, you don't think you've ever seen this much food in one place before. “What do you like to make?” Yelena asks, raising her eyebrows at you.

“Um, I usually cooked potatoes and sometimes they had carrots and onions, sometimes pasta. This is so much food.” You say in awe, staring at the fully stocked fridge in front of you.

“Well, Stark usually keeps this crazy full because Peter Parker is always hungry” She grins.

“Okay, um, what do you like to eat? I can cook for you,” you offer, studying all the different foods.

Yelena looks you up and down. “I like macaroni and hot sauce. But more importantly, what do you like?”

“I can cook that! And I like plums, Bucky has been giving them to me and they're really sweet,” you answer.

“Like him? Oh my god Y/n, you like the dark staring man? Seriously?” Yelena scoffs.

“Shut up!” You urge her, blushing. “I can make macaroni and hot sauce, and cut up some plums and make a salad. Can you see if anyone else wants to eat that?” You ask.

Yelena rolls her eyes. “I'll ask, but I know no one will turn down a home cooked meal.”

You smile, grabbing two blocks of cheese and an onion out of the fridge. You start to cut up the cheeses and Yelena grabs a bottle of vodka. “My mother always said that cooking goes best with a drink,” she explains, as she pours out equal parts vodka and lemonade into two glasses. She hands one to you and takes a sip out of the other one. You smile at her, take a sip, and continue to prep for dinner.

An hour later, you're pulling a dish of macaroni and cheese out of the oven. There's a bowl of cut up plums and a salad already on the table, fully set with plates, napkins, drinks, silverware, and, of course, hot sauce. You sit down next to Yelena, quietly sipping the last of the drink she made you. Sam, Steve, Peter, Natasha, Bucky, Rhodey, Wanda, Vision, Pepper, and Tony all sit down as well.

“This smells wonderful, y/n” Steve compliments you, and everyone digs in. Over the course of the meal, several more compliments follow, making you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

“When did you learn to cook?” Sam asks, as he scoops a third helping of mac and cheese onto his plate.

“Well, they usually forgot to feed the kids at hydra, and because they knew that I wasn't a threat with knives, or really any weapons, I was allowed more freedom than the other prisoners. So they would let me cook, because they couldn't trust anyone else with knives.” You explain nonchalantly.

“Not a threat? Clearly they never saw you throw knives.” Loki smirks at you.

“Do you like to cook?” Asks Tony.

“Yes sir, I like to feel useful and everyone has to eat, sir.” You respond. “What do you like? I can cook that next,” you promise.

“Oh, Tony eats anything homemade,” Pepper cuts in.

“I like seafood, and pie. Really any kind of pie.” Sam offers.

“I can cook that, probably,” you giggle.

“I like chocolate chip cookies” Morgan adds.

“I can definitely make those,” you say with a grin.

“Only if you eat your salad,” Pepper warns Morgan lightly.

You begin cooking dinner every night, asking Friday for the avenger's favorite meals and recipes. Yelena always stays with you while you chop vegetables and prepare meats, making a drink for you and her and telling you about whatever movie or tv show she has seen recently. It becomes a new normal for you, a comfortable routine. The warmth of the kitchen, the smell of garlic, and the familiarity of Yelena pouring a drink and leading the conversation, you start to feel as though this really could be your home.

Chapter 16

Warnings: swearing, angst

As all the guests were arriving at the Barnes townhouse, Y/N held court in George's office. First speaking to Wanda and Pietro when they arrived. Steve and Sam helped him up the stairs. He had been shot in the thigh but was expected to make a full recovery. His doctors weren't pleased that he insisted on checking himself out of the hospital but there was nothing they could do.

They also spoke with Loki and George separately. She was trying to get a bead on where everyones heads were to help work out what comes next.

When the food arrived, Y/N sat at one end of the Barnes formal dining room table, Pietro to her right and Wanda to her left. At the other end is George Barnes with Bucky on his right, Steve on his left and Sam next to Steve. Filling the rest of the seats are Tony Stark with Happy and Rhodey, plus Loki, Hela, Val and Heimdal. Yelena was still in bad shape but insisted on being there. Attorney Matt Murdock sat quietly observing and taking notes.

While everyone ate the conversation was casual, catching up with associates that hadn't been together in a non violent situation in a long while. It was a bit stilted since everyone had the coming discussion in mind, trying to figure out how to keep their advantages while working with former rivals.

Once the dessert, brandy and coffee had been served George spoke up.

"I want to thank everyone here for coming tonight and more importantly for your help in the mess that Pierce and Dreykov created. We are stronger when we work together and keeping that in mind I am proposing new alliances to strengthen the old ones."

He looked at his son, then to Y/N, who nodded subtly.

"Right. I want to announce the merging of the Barnes and Y/L/N families. Y/N and my son James will marry in one month."

George watched his son as he made the announcement and Bucky went from surprised to delighted to confused.

Tony protested "Wait a damn minute, George. You expect her to honor her agreement after everything that has happened and the reality that your son shares a good portion of the blame for everything she's lost?

I don't know if I can allow that to happen."

Y/N kept her feelings closer to the vest, revealing nothing. She was still wary about trusting Bucky but she wasn't prepared to handle her fathers entire empire on her own and she trusted George. She also felt she could trust Steve in a pinch.

"Tony, Tony" she tried to stop him. When he looked at her he saw the resolve in her eyes "I know you're trying to look out for me but I already agreed to move forward with the marriage. I can't, I don't want to do this alone. I would much rather be spending time with my horses than all this mess. Bucky can run the business so that I'm only needed occasionally."

Tony shook his head "But what about-"

She smiled softly at him. "I've looked at all the angles and this is the least disagreeable way to keep the business going and have a little bit of a life separate from it. It'll be ok. I'll be ok" she said firmly.

Loki looked at her, concerned. He knew Thor's death hit her harder than she was willing to admit. When she returned his gaze he raised his eyebrows in question, was this really what she wanted to do? "Y/N? Are you sure about this, love? Heimdal and I would be happy to help you until you are ready to stand on your own."

Y/N smiled at Loki "I know and your friendship means the world to me but you've lost important members of your family because of me. I couldn't ask for anything else from you."

Loki shook his head "You didn't ask, I'm offering"

"I know but I also know you have some reorganizing to do yourself. Don't worry, I'll call if I need you. I promise."

Loki sighed "Very well but if I find out you're having trouble and you don't call me, we're going to have a problem"

She nodded in response.

Bucky finally remembered how to talk and had to throw in his 2 cents. "Wait, I never agreed to anything."

Y/N smirked at him "Of course you did. We both signed a contract that included marriage. I know everything has been chaotic but it hasn't been that long. We might need to tweak it a bit but it's still binding. Unless you aren't a man of your word" she looked at him with her eyebrow raised, questioning.

Bucky stuttered under her gaze "N-N-No! I am a man of my w-word. I just, you, but we-" he stopped to take a breath and gather his thoughts. "We need to speak privately. After this meeting." And sat back, arms crossed, face stoic except for the slight up turn at the corners of his mouth and a twinkle in his eyes.

Y/N nodded "Good. Now, Loki has agreed to take Yelena in on a probationary basis, once she's fully healed of course. She risked her life to give us information on Dreykovs plans which helped us take him down so we believe she deserves a chance. One chance" she looked at Yelena seriously, who nodded in response.

"Now, about dividing Pierce's territory...."

They spent 5 hours at that table, arguing over who would control what as the available territory was divided. Finally in the wee hours of the night an agreement was reached. No one was really happy but that's how compromises usually work.

Y/N was starting to feel the strain of being up for so long. She was still recovering from the loss of her arm and the grief from losing Thor was trying to push past the walls she had built up in recent days.

Bucky noticed that she was wobbling, straining to hold herself up at the table and he spoke up

"I think we need to call it a night." He glanced at his watch "It's past 3am and none of us have slept much in the last few days."

Everyone nodded and grumbled but Loki had one more concern "Does anyone know what happened to Zemo?"

Y/N roused for a moment "You guys lost Zemo?" She shivered "But he's vile. Might come after me, he never got over being dumped. I-"

Bucky shook his head "We will get him and Y/N, I promise I will keep you safe."

Everyone said their goodbyes and made to leave as Bucky helped Y/N upstairs. She was almost falling asleep as they walked up the stairs. He helped her get comfortable in his bed and tucked her in, kissed her on the forehead and whispered. "I promise I'll keep you safe."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three days later. Y/N still hadn't had a talk with Bucky. Every time he was around she went to his bedroom and locked the door, refusing to even acknowledge anyone who tried to speak with her.

Y/N had barely left Bucky's bedroom, leaving him with the lumpy fold out sofa in the den. She slept most of the time or would just lay there staring at the ceiling. Even her mother couldn't get her to eat much.

Today she had to get up. Today was Thor's funeral. The thought of it made her feel sick and she couldn't keep anything down at all that day.

She just went through the motions. Dressed up in a black dress with a matching veiled hat and black pumps she looked in the mirror and told herself. She could do this, she tried to convince the tired woman who she barely recognized.

The cemetery was crowded with cars, mostly black SUV's. There were so many people Y/N felt lost, gripping her mother's arm tightly. She was still unable to process the grief, the ache from losing Thor too fresh in her mind.

Bucky came up to her other side and gently rested his hand on her back, relieved that she didn't shrug him off this time. He guided them towards the grave site and was relieved when he saw Loki speaking quietly with his sister, Hela.

Loki saw them coming and excused himself from Hela to greet Y/N. "Y/N? Love? Are you alright?" He pulled her into his arms but she stood there stiffly, not returning his hug.

He pulled back to look at her face and she nodded woodenly, whispering "I'm fine" as tears welled up in her eyes.

Loki led her to the front row of seats and sat her down next to him, her mother and Bucky on her other side.

Bucky sat next to Y/N for the service, holding her flesh hand with his vibranium one. When the casket was being lowered she squeezed his hand and he gently returned it, so she knew he was there.

Her shoulders were shaking with the sobs she was trying to hold in but it all became too much and she couldn't anymore. Loud, gut wrenching sobs broke through and she couldn't stop them.

Y/N felt like her heart had been ripped from her chest and there was nothing left but emptiness. Thor had been by her side for years, starting as her trainer then friend then blossoming into something neither one of them wanted to deny, even though they knew the risks. No one knew her like he had and that loss felt like more than she could bear after everything else.

Y/N collapsed next to Thor's grave "N-n-no, I c-can't leave him here. It's t-too cold in the ground. Please don't make me leave him alone. I can't." She looked up at Bucky as he sat on the ground next to her "please, Jamie. Don't make me" she fainted and fell into his arms.

October 2014

Nat's POV

Finding Clint proved rather easy, but getting to him took a little bit of time. With everyone's faith restored, we went over the mission plans, designating everyone's place, before heading off to get a much needed night of sleep.

The teams were confirmed, and written in my notepad.

Soul Stone: Steve, and Tony are teamed up for Vormir.

Power Stone: Rhodey, and Nebula are off to Morag

Space / Mind Stone: Wanda, Clint and I are headed to 2008 NY

Time Stone: Bruce will accompany us to 2008 NY

Reality Stone: Thor and Rocket are off to Asgard.

Scott's staying behind to make sure there's no interference from the other end while we're all off in the past.

—

"Nat, can you see it, this time tomorrow, we'll be cuddled up with Y/N and Yelena." Wanda squeals, while cuddling into Y/N's side of the bed in her hoodie.

"We?" I chuckle out in question.

"Yes, we, did you think you get her all to yourself?"

"Well yeah, I thought you'd be with Vision."

"Oh, well... Vision's my boyfriend, but Y/N's my person. He can wait."

"Why do I have this feeling that I will have to kidnap my girlfriend just to even be able to see her." I groan, while closing my eyes.

"Because you will." She mumbles out, as she fades away into a peaceful sleep.

I'm more than excited for this to all be over, I'm honestly one night away from suffocating Wanda and her lawnmower-esque snores...

—

We'd all arrived to the compound at varying times. Wanda and I ate breakfast while watching Tony set the platform up, and then handed out these high tech quantum travel suits.

Scott came bounding into the main room far later than the rest of us, with a very limited amount of red vials.

"These are Pym Particles. You can't shrink to the Quantum Realm without them, and since Hank Pym got snapped out of existence, we can't make any more. I told you. We've only got enough for one round trip each, no do-overs.

Well and two test runs-."

I volunteered to do the test run, so I stepped onto the platform.

"Okay, Nat, you might feel a little disoriented when you chronoshift-."

Rhodey interrupts him, with some bogus question, that leads to a useless debate on the logistics of time travel.

"Any time now..." I groan, wanting to speed the process up tenfold.

"Okay, Nat. Starting in three, two, one..." Bruce's new Hulk hybrid form says, before punching buttons on the platform.

I feel a light head rush, as I'm being dropped into the bathroom of our apartment, circa two years ago. Then, I hear her voice, and I have to work to fight off the tears threatening to spill, as I listen to her singing along to the radio.

"Natty baby!!! They should be here any minute, I'm really nervous... It's our first time babysitting her..."

I hear her shout, and it takes everything in me to not respond, to not run out and pull her into my embrace. I cover my mouth and nose to stifle my sobs, and then I hear the bed crinkle, making me realize she's getting up to leave.

I sneak a peek at her, then rush out to grab anything I could, before I'm transported back to the platform.

"Are you alright? Hey, look at me. You okay?"Clint questions, as he rushes to my side, and pulls me up.

"Tell me something good..." Tony shakily says.

"It worked..." I whimper out, as I hold up Y/N's sketchbook.

"Holy crap. We're freaking time travelers." The raccoon says.

"Okay, we have a plan. Six stones, three teams, one shot."

"Two years ago, we lost everything... Most of us lost friends, family, and for many—a part of ourselves. We finally have a chance to make things right, to bring everyone back. Follow your roles to a T, get your stone and get back here. One round trip each. No mistakes. No do-overs. Be careful, just because you might know where you are, doesn't mean you'll have an easy road ahead. Watch each other's sixes, be creative if need be, just make sure you're prepared. This is the fight of our lives. And we're going to win."

"Whatever it takes." He finishes, as we all mumble the words in agreement.

Scott taps in commands onto the platforms base.

"Tracking beacons engaged."

"See you in a minute." I giddily state, while staring around at everyone on the platform, before we all travel to our destinations.

— — NY 2008 — —

Bruce leaves us at the Shield building, while he travels across time to find the The Ancient One.

Wanda, Clint and I head inside to collect the Mind Stone, and Space Stone.

"Wands, the mind stones on the move, head towards the elevator." I relay through the comms, while Clint and I make our way to the Stark towers lobby.

Wanda's directly involved in getting the mind stone from the men, which shouldn't be hard for her since she has her powers.

Clint and I are responsible for the Space stone, that's currently in a container in Tony's hands.

"Really, we should just wait for Wanda to give the all clear, then we grapple hook the container and go."Clint suggests.

"Why don't you just try and convince Tony to hand it over?" I ask.

"Well, because I've aged quite a bit since he literally saw me an hour ago; if not for your hair change, I'd say you could've done that."

"How about you throw this face changing mask on, bump into Tony, and I'll collect the stone?"

"Sounds like a long shot, but if all else fails, at least we know we could take these idiots in a fight." Clint laughs out, and I chuckle lightly in agreement.

Wanda's POV

"I'm here." I whisper into the comms, as I sneak into the back of the elevator

As the men enter, they seem to be immediately on defense, then Rumlow and I lock eyes...

He reaches up to use his comms, but I immediately infiltrate his mind, halting all of his movements. The rest of the ride is smooth sailing, as I enter someone else's mind, and they hand the scepter over to me. Once we reached the bottom, I'd put them all in a nightmarish trance, then I energy blasted the doors shut.

"All good over here, how about there?"

"Almost, just meet us in the alley." Natasha grunts into her comms, and I chuckle to myself at the disparities in our successes.

"Roger that, see you shortly bestie." I laugh into the comms and make my way outdoors.

Clint's POV

I bumped Tony, as was instructed, and Nat snuck the stone, as planned. They didn't even notice the now empty container...

However, Tony, still in his playboy phase, felt like commenting on Natasha's body... So, she gave him the ass whooping of a lifetime, until Wanda finally announced she was ready.

Thor's POV

— — Asgard 2009 — —

As the raccoon and I make it to Asgard, my heart flutters at the sight of my people living joyfully. My focus is quickly lost, as I see Jane, and then I hear my mother's voice...

"Who's she to you?"

"My mother, and today's the day she dies.."

I drop my gaze, feeling as the overwhelming sadness continues to pull at me.

"I can't do this..." I whimper out, preparing to run off, but then the raccoon slaps me in the face.

"You think you're the only one who's lost people? What do you think we're doing here? I lost the only family I ever had. Quill, Groot, Drax, Gamora, the chick with the antenna. All gone. I've lived two meaningless years without them, and every minute has blown. I get you miss your mom. But she's gone. Really gone. There are plenty of people who are only kind of gone. And you can help them. So, is it too much to ask that you brush the crumbs out of your beard, make shmoopy talk to Prettypants, and when she's not looking, suck out the Infinity Stone, and help me get my family back?"

I nod my head, agreeing with the trash eater, moving towards the living quarters.

"Thor? What are you doing?"

"Mother? Nothing."

"What happened to you? You are clearly not my Thor..."

"Mother, whatever do you mean?"

"No time for games boy, I was raised by witches, so let's get to the point."

I simply jump into her, forcefully causing her to embrace me, before explaining everything that's happeneed.

"I have missed you mother."

"I love you, my dear boy, now go save your reality..." She coos, then places a gentle kiss to my forehead.

"I got it ! But we gotta go!" Rocket shouts, as he races into the room we're both in.

"Goodbye son, go be great..."

Nebula's POV

— — Morag 2010 — —

"We have to be careful, we're not alone on this planet." I comment, remembering all too well where I was during this time.

"What do you mean? There's more than Quill?"

"Yeah, not too far out from here, Gamora, Thanos, and I are in search of this exact same stone."

Once Quill shows up, dancing like an idiot, Rhodey’s knocking him out instantly. Then Rhodey and I enter the “Temple of the Power Stone.”

“I wasn’t always like this.” I mutter, as Rhodey stares at me with a peculiar stare,

“Yeah, me either. I guess we do the best with what we’ve got, huh?” He questions me, hinting to his understanding, as he’s not so different than me with his high tech leg braces.

I smile gently, then hand him the orb.

“Let’s get out of here. Place gives me the creeps. Sync up. Three... two...one...”

Before I can sink up with him, my body begins to violently shake, and I feel as if my minds been split in two, then I pass out.

As I come to, I realize we’ve been found out, that somehow my consciousness has split and connected past me with current me.

“Rogers, Stark, come in. We have a problem. Thanos knows! Thanos-.” I try to signal the others from the pod, but next thing I know, I’m being transported into a ship…

Tony's POV

— — Vormir 2010 — —

"Really starting to regret my choice here." I mutter, while gasping for air, as we ascend this mountain.

"Yeah. I'm gonna bet the raccoon didn't have to climb a mountain." I add on, while Steve remains many feet ahead of me, stupid super soldier...

Once we reach the top, a hooded figure glides towards us, and bellows

"I assure you, you have nothing to fear from me."

"Red Skull?" Steve mutters under his breath, with a perplexed look on his face.

"Welcome Steve, son of Sarah. Tony, son of Maria."

"Why are you here?" Steve asks the daunting figure.

"Consider me a guide. To you, and to all who seek the Soul Stone."

"Great. You show us where it is, and we'll be on our way." I relay, wanting to get this show on the road. 

"Oh, liebchen. If only it were that easy..." He ominously says, while removing his hood, and guiding us towards the cliff's edge.

"What you seek lies in front of you. As does what you fear."

"The Stone is down there?" I confirm.

"For one of you. For the other... The Stone demands a sacrifice. In order to take it, you must leave behind that which you love. A soul for a soul."

"Well, I left my Playboy's at home, so this will prove to be rather impossible..." I deadpan, and Steve just glares at me, before both of our gazes drop back down to the long drop.

We walk away from the cliff's edge, in need of time to think, and I take a seat on a stump, while Cap paces around me.

"Maybe he's full of shit." I mutter, willing it to be true.

"I don't think so." Steve concludes

"Why, because you knew him?"

"Exactly that, he hates me, if this was calculated, he would've made it my problem."

...

"Plus, Thanos left here with the stone, and without his daughter. You really think that's a coincidence?"

I look out towards the edge, deciding that this is at least a noble way to go out—bringing back my sister, and the spiderling...

"Whatever it takes..." I mumble under my breath.

"Whatever it takes..." I hear him do the same.

"If we don't get the stone, billions of people are going to stay dead." Steve proclaims, as he stops pacing and looks out towards the edge.

"Then I guess we both know who it has to be."

I sigh, accepting that every move I've made thus far has lead me to this karma filled ending.

"Yeah. Guess we do." Steve sighs, causing me to lift my body from the stump to lock gazes with the man.

"Steve, I'm starting to think we mean different people here."

"Tony, I've lived a long life, longer than most get to dream of, I promise it's okay. You have a wife, a daughter, and a sister who'll be expecting you to return to them. It's not rocket science here, which if it was you'd be the one to solve it. Bucky and Sam—they'll get by just fine. Please, give Sam the shield, it's the most sane decision to pass the torch onto him." The soldier begins his long winded goodbye.

"Steve, I've done horrible things, so many of which do not even deserve forgiveness. You've lived your life as an honest man, always laying your life on the line, never caring where it leads you. You've sacrificed love, friendship, freedom all in the name of nobility. Steve, it should be me."

"We've all made mistakes, I have countless times, but our mistakes don't define us Tony. They shouldn't be given the weight to do so. Your intentions matter, what you do to atone for your sins matters, and how you choose to move forward matters. Tony, you've made up for all that you've caused, and you then brought a beautiful child into the world. You jumping off this cliff to lessen your guilt, therefore leaving Morgan fatherless, that would be the worst mistake. You're nothing like Howard, so let's keep it that way, yeah?."

"Oh Cap, you've always been so good at the end of the world speeches." I bitterly chuckle out as I pat his face, then lift my other hand to blast him across the rocks, and begin to run towards the cliff.

"Yeah, and you've always been best at making hot headed decisions without considering the consequences, Stark." He grunts out, while throwing the shield directly into my arc reactor, enabling me powerless until I can remove it.

"Thank you, for being one of the greatest friends I could've had. It's been an honor to fight beside you..." He solemnly states, while running towards the edge and jumping.

I chase after him, jumping onto my stomach, and grasping at his suit.

"No! It shouldn't be you."

"It shouldn't be any of us... but it is, and it's more than okay for it to be me."

"No.." I say through gritted teeth, as I desperately attempt to pull the log of a man back up.

"It's okay Tony, I'm not afraid to die." He states, with a sad smile on his face, as he reaches up to remove my hand from his clothing.

"No!" I shout, as his body falls from my grasp, and I scramble backwards in an attempt to escape this nightmare— I hear the thud, my blood runs cold, and I begin to hyperventilate.

I'm not sure if I passed out or not from screaming, but I now find myself lying in a shallow bed of water. I sit up, to find that the nightmare is still occurring, and I've got the stone in my hand, and if feels all too heave I said I couldn't lose anything else. Time doesn't care though... It never does.

Nat's POV

October 2014 — Compound

It worked! We’re all back, everyone’s got their stones!

“Tony, where’s Steve?” I hear Wanda ask, and that’s when I notice Tony’s broken form standing still before us.

“Tony?” I attempt to question, but then his saddened gaze turns furious as he makes his way to me.

“This better work Natasha! You said I wouldn’t have to lose anything else, but here I stand, down a friend…”

“What happened?” Clint questions, as I continue to stand there frozen.

“A soul for a soul, that’s what the floating red guy said! I fought him, but he-he won…”

“You act as if this can’t be undone, we just snap, and he’ll be back.” Thor boasts, as if he’s just solved an intergalactic rubix cube.

“Everlasting exchange Thor, that’s not something one can just undo… Steve’s gone, never to return.”

“Then we make it worth it, his death can’t be in vain…” I finally speak up, devastated at the loss of my friend, having long forgiven him for what’s been said and done.

Tony, Bruce, and Rocket take off to put the stones into the gauntlet.

“Staring at the thing isn’t going to bring everybody back, is it? Look, I’m the strongest Avenger. It’s my responsibility. Fate wills it so.” Thor commands.

“Hold on, hold on—.”

“Stop it! Let me do this. Let me do something good. Something right-.” Thor heartbreakingly pleads.

“That thing is channeling enough energy to light up a continent. You’re in no condition-.”

“What do you think is coursing through my veins right now?”

“Lightning won’t help you, pal. It’s gotta be me. You saw what those stones did to Thanos. They almost killed him. None of you could survive.” Smart Hulk proclaims, as he moves to fit the gauntlet to his arm.

“The radiation’s mostly gamma. It’s like I was made for this...” He continues.

“Just remember, bring everyone back from the last two years, but don’t change anything that’s happened.” Tony proclaims.

“Got it.” Banner responds.

As they go back and forth, I notice that Nebula’s not been present in the slightest, I don’t even remember seeing her return in the first place. While Bruce falls to the ground in pain, and goes to snap, I search for Nebula.

I stumble upon her at the quantum console, and then I see her pressing a handful of I assume unnecessary buttons. Then I notice both of her arms seem fine, and after what Rhodey said, I know for a fact something is off.

“What are you —?” I start to question, but then the whole compound begins to crumble around me, and I find myself being thrown.”
