Requested by sarahliz23... The night before they time travel, Steve admits how he feels.

Steve stood outside Natasha's door quietly. Trying to work up the courage to do what he needed to do.

Unfortunately for him, Natasha was a master spy and assassin and sneaking up on her was beyond difficult to do.

"You gonna come in or just lurk outside?" Natasha asked from inside the room.

Steve blushed and sheepishly stepped inside the room.

"Sorry, I wasn't sure it was a good time."

Natasha shrugged. "It's fine. Come in."

Steve walked into the room and stood a few feet away from where Natasha was sitting down.

She gave him a half hearted smile. She motioned for him to sit next to her and grinned when he seemed hesitant. "I don't bite...not unless you want me to."

Steve nearly choked on the air but he tried to keep his composure. "You ready for tomorrow?" He asked.

Natasha slowly nodded. "Yeah. I just hope it works."

Steve nodded. "It will. We have to believe that it will."

"Is that why you came in here? To give me a pep talk?" Natasha asked.

Steve shook his head and closed his eyes. "No, I actually have something I need to tell you but I'm not sure it's the time."

Natasha offered a small smile. "There's no better time like the present Rogers."

Steve smiled. "I'm glad you said that because now I can hold you to that."

"Stop avoiding whatever it is your trying to tell me. I don't have all night." She teased.

Steve cleared his throat, looking down at his feet. "Right..."

Natasha's expression changed when she saw how worried he seemed to be. She placed her hand on top of his and gently pulled his chin so that he was looking at her. "Hey, you know you can tell me anything."

Steve nodded, "I know."

Natasha nodded, encouraging him to go on.

"I'm worried that something bad might happen tomorrow. With all of the uncertainties, so many things could go wrong. And if I were to lose you or if I were to die...there's something I want you to know."

Natasha raised her eyebrows and Steve sighed.

"Nat, I don't know how to say this." He said, his heart practically racing.

Natasha furrowed her eyebrows, concerned about what it was he had to say. "Whatever it is Steve, I'm not going anywhere. Just tell me."

"I love you." He finally said after a few seconds of silence.

Natasha felt like her heart stopped. Her jaw dropped and she blinked a few times to make sure she wasn't dreaming. "You what?" She asked quietly.

Steve hung his head. "I shouldn't have said anything. I don't know what I expected. Just, forget I said anything.." he said sadly.

Natasha shook her head and once again pulled his chin gently so he was looking her in the eyes. "Please say it again Steve."

"Natasha..."

"Please."

"I said I love you." Steve said quietly glancing down. 

Natasha smiled gently and moved her hands to rest on both sides of Steve's face. "I love you too Steve."

Steve looked back into Natasha's eyes with shock. "You do?"

Natasha nodded. "Yeah."

Steve laughed in relief and smiled, wrapping his arms around Natasha's waist.

Natasha looked down at Steve's lips and then back into his eyes. Finally learning how to take a hint, Steve slowly moved towards Natasha. Who was not in the mood for taking things slow.

She grabbed the back of his neck and gently pulled him towards her until their lips connected in a passionate kiss.

Natasha bit Steve's lip gently and pulled away confused when Steve started laughing. "What?"

"You said you didn't bite." Steve said, smirking.

Natasha grinned. "I said I didn't unless you wanted me too. Did you not want me too?"

Steve kissed her again. "Now I never said that." He said in-between kisses.

Natasha laughed and flipped Steve over so that she was laying on top of him.

She pulled away from his lips and began placing soft kisses up and down Steve's jaw.

"Nat...what are you doing?"

She ran her fingers through his hair as she straddled his lap and pulled his shoulders so that he was sitting up again.

"I'm kissing you, what does it look like." She said, kissing his lips again.

Steve laughed again. "Honestly I'm only seeing spots right now thanks to you."

Natasha laughed again and kissed his jaw again. "Ok, then what does it feel like I'm doing?"

Steve gently ran his fingers threw Natasha's hair and sighed. "It feels like we are making up for lost time."

Natasha shrugged. "There's definitely a lot of lost time to make up for. We are both idiots. We could have been doing this months ago."

Steve nodded, "Yeah but like you said, there's no better time like the present."

Natasha smiled but it slowly faded into a frown. "Right, unless you consider that we are literally going back in time tomorrow because that's apparently not true."

Steve sighed, their moment was about to end.

"Right, speaking of which. I should probably go. It's getting late and we have a big day tomorrow." Steve said with a frown.

Natasha nodded. "You're probably right. Unless you want to sleep here tonight? I wouldn't mind the company..."

"You sure?"

Natasha nodded. "Maybe having you here will help me get some sleep."

Steve nodded. "Okay."

Natasha got underneath her covers and motioned for Steve to lay down besides her.

Once he had down so, she wrapped her arm around his torso. Steve grabbed her hand and then wrapped his free arm around Natasha. Making her feel safer then she ever had.

She sighed in contentment and leaned up to kiss Steve one more time. "Goodnight Steve. I love you."

Steve kissed her forehead and smiled, loving how the words sounded coming from her swollen lips. "Goodnight Nat. I love you too."
