You had a problem, even though for years you had an overwhelming crush on Natasha, your co-worker, you never had the courage to tell her that, not that it wasn't kind of obvious, just the way you looked at her said everything about your feelings, and all the other Avengers already knew that very well.

After more long months of letting your colleagues frustrated with your slowness, they finally decide to give you a little push. During the party that Tony had organized, Clint had told you to declare your love for Maria Hill, pretending it was Natasha... What happens is that as soon as you finished getting it all out and felt relieved, Steve smiled evily, telling you to take a look behind your back for a second.

But when you did that, your eyes widen instantly as you see the spy staring at your face with a mixed expression of surprise and amusement, one eyebrow raised as you felt more cornered than ever. "Sweet words, though you were looking at the wrong person."
