A couple of mornings later, 11 days post the Snap Nat decided she couldnât take it anymore and told Steve she wanted to go to Clintâs.
âI have to knowâŚâ she said, looking at Steve. He sighed and glanced over her shoulder to Katie who merely shrugged. She knew where Nat was coming from, it was killing her not knowing what had happened to Tony. Â
âAlright.â he acquiesced, âLet me grab a jacket.â
âIâll meet you on the jet?â she asked. He nodded and watched her go before he turned to his wife who was studying him over her coffee.
âIf Barton was alive he would have been here by now.â Steve said dragging a hand down over his beard as he dropped onto the sofa next to Katie âI donât understand why she doesnât see or get that?â
"Put yourself in her shoesâŚâ Katie said as she curled in on herself under a blanket on the sofa as a particularly nasty cramp hit her stomach âYouâd do the same thing for Bucky, or Sam⌠or me.â
"You know that I would.â he replied, noticing her shift in position and he frowned but before he could say anything she placed her hand on his bearded cheek.
âThen just go, let her see. Plus, you could be wrong.â
âI suppose itâs happened from time to time.â he said and Katie smiled as he leaned over to press their foreheads together.
âAre you feeling ok?â
âNot reallyâ she said, âBut Iâve taken some painkillers, and Dr Kellet is coming over later. Thank fuck she wasnât snappedâŚâ
âI can ask Thor to go with Nat instead.â Steve looked at his wife.
âShe asked you for a reason.â Katie said gently, âShe trusts you. And I think if its bad news, sheâs gonna need you.â
âOk, well, if youâre sure.â he looked at her again and she nodded. âI love you.â
âI know.â she smiled âI love you too. Now go.â
