All’s Fair in Love and Matchmaking
Steve started to enter the lounge, but stopped as he saw the woman in red. She was stunning. Gorgeous. A knock out.
“Your car’s ready, Darcy! Enjoy your date and thank me later.” Natasha sounded triumphant.
He regretted blowing off Natasha’s latest attempt at matchmaking more than he could’ve ever imagined. Self-insulting curses and expletives echoed inside his head as he realized his epic mistake- and he tried not to drool. He stayed out of Darcy’s line of sight and stared at her hopelessly.
As Darcy swept out of the room, Natasha handed her a condom. “You look fantastic and you’re gonna need this.”
Darcy grinned and tucked it in her handbag, “If he’s as amazing as you say, we may need more.”
After she was gone, Natasha turned and called out. “You can come out now. Did you want something?”
“Is that the woman you told me to ask out for tonight? Was THAT Darcy Lewis?” Steve hung his head, wincing.
Natasha raised a brow. “Yes. THAT was Darcy Lewis. Why do you ask? I mean.. sure, she’s funny and gorgeous and nice. Brave, too. She laid Thor out with a Taser when they first met. But, you ‘just want some peace and quiet’ and ‘no one can be THAT amazing’. Right?”
He swallowed hard and looked longingly towards the door Darcy left by. “I may have been completely wrong about that.”
Natasha’ nodded, smug. “Uh huh. Say you’re sorry for doubting me.”
Steve sighed, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you.” His expression crumpled with regret. “I’m really sorry.” He closed his eyes tightly and shook his head.
With a triumphant air, Natasha walked past him and pulled his dark navy suit and his black dress shoes out of a nearby closet. “Here. Get dressed and don’t doubt me again. Oh. And name one of the kids after me.” She frowned. “Don’t gawk. Dress. Hurry. This is planned down to the second.” She pulled out her phone and hit speed dial. “Agent Hart? This is Romanoff. Return to your post. I’m sorry, but you’re needed at Headquarters tonight. I’ll have someone let your blind date know. Thank you.”
Steve stripped without further delay and put on the suit. He frowned. “Hart? Hasn’t he dated every woman on base?”
Natasha looked like the cat who had eaten the canary. “Almost. A few of the men, too. He’s really good in bed. If for some reason I couldn’t set Darcy up with the man most likely to be the love of her life, I was at least gonna make sure she got laid.” She stepped closer and helped him with his tie. “Just be yourself, Steve. You two are perfect for each other.”
With a bashful smile, he nodded and leaned down to kiss her cheek. “Thanks.”
Natasha stood back and looked him over. “You look good. Your driver’s route is shorter than hers and I gave them your name at the restaurant. Have fun.”
Barely repressing a smirk, Steve looked askance at Natasha.
Finally, she reached in her pocket and handed him several condoms. “Oh? Okay. Here. You’re welcome.” She chuckled.
As he dashed out he called back to her, “THANK YOU!”
