Chapter Text
Another clue that led to nothing.
Natasha and Clint had gone all the way to Moscow to follow a lead and come back empty handed.
She let out a sigh and layed down on her bed, pulled out her phone and stared at a picture of her and Y/n smiling right back at her. It was one of the few they had; neither ofthem were really into taking them. But it had been a special ocassion and it was worth having something more than just the memories. Now it was one of the few things she had left of her.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Natasha had just gotten home from a mission, it was one of the few times when she wasn't paired up with y/n. She was still recovering from the last solo mission she had gone on, nothing too bad, but bad enough to leave her out of the field for a week or two.
She went with Clint instead. She had to admit she liked working with him from time to time. That way at least she knew y/n was back home safe.
She felt a pair of arms wrap around her from behind and almost melted into them.
"I'm so glad you're back любимая."Y/n kissed her cheek.
Natasha turned around and kissed her on the lips. Y/n's hands cupped her cheeks.
When they pulled away they both had soft smiles on their faces.
"I have a surprise for you." Y/n grabbed her hand and walked her to the bathroom, where a bath was waiting for her. "Come on, in you go, wouldn't want it to get cold."
They spent a couple of hours in thewater, making out and talking about how much they loved each other. Only getting out once the water was freezing and they were sure to catch a cold if they stayed longer.
They went to bed right after, holding each other close and whispering soft nothings until they both drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
The next morning Natasha woke up to the smell of pancakes and soft music, she went to the kitchen and watched as the love of her life danced to it and made breakfast.
She loved you.
There was no denying it.
And she'd do anything for you.
You turned around and smiled at her softly. "Are you gonna stand there forever or are you gonna give me my good morning kiss?"
She walked over to you and kissed you gently. "Happy anniversary, love."
You gasped playfully."You remembered!" Knowing fully well she could never forget.
She smiled back at you and went back to the bedroom to get your present and something more.
She hid it in plain sight, knowing you'd find it anyway but wouldn't open it until she gave it to you.
She went back to the kitchen and handed you your gift.
It was a simple necklace, but to you it was wonderful. It had a golden royal azalea, one of Russia's most beautiful flowers and the first one she got you as a bouquet for your first anniversary.
You gave her a ring, it looked like it had a blue, white dotted stone, but I was the star alignment of when you had first said I love you.
You took a picture of the two of you with your gifts, it wouldn't go anywhere or be posted, but it would be nice to have for when you were apart on missions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that picture and that ring were the two things she had to hold on to.
