Requested by tainted_dreams. Natasha is pregnant and Steve gets really protective of her.

"I'm going." Natasha said, zipping up her suit.

Steve gently grabbed her and and sighed. "Natasha it's dangerous."

She rolled her eyes and brushed Steve's hand away. "It's no more dangerous then all the other missions we've done."

"This is different Nat! This time it's not just our lives at stake. You have to realize that!" Steve said.

"I do realize that! Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I'm going to shatter if I get a few minor wounds." She said, scowling at Steve.

He grabbed her arm again and pulled her towards him gently. "Its not about you this time Natasha. What if the baby gets hurt?"

Natasha looked down, still angry.

Steve gently placed his hand on her cheek and bringing her face up so she was looking into his eyes. "I trust you completely. And I know you can protect yourself, but this is beyond both of us. Accidents happen all the time in this buisness and we can't risk our child's life for a mission." He said softly.

Natasha sighed. "Fine. I'll stay on the jet while you do all the fighting. I'll be in your coms and I'll help from the air. Deal?" She said, her featured softening.

Steve nodded. "Deal." He pressed a gentle kiss on her forehead and his hand found her stomach.

"Please don't be upset with me, I just want what's best for you and the baby." Steve said, worried that she would hold a grudge for his actions.

Natasha leaned into his touch and rested her forehead on his. "I'm not. Sorry I was being irrational. You're right. It's not just my life at stake anymore." She said, leaning up to kiss him.

Steve smiled and grabbed Natasha's hand. "You ready?"

Natasha nodded and they headed to the jet.

Once they arrived at the mission site, Steve pulled Natasha close to him and kissed her quickly. "Promise me you'll stay on the jet." He said, looking into her bright green eyes.

Natasha nodded. "Promise. Be careful. I love you." She said, kissing him one more time before he jumped out of the jet.

Natasha quickly took her spot at a computer where she could see and hear everything Steve did.

She turned on her intercom and used another computer to find heat sources in the dark building, seeing as Steve was walking around in the dark blindly.

"Steve, hold on a second, I'm searching for heat sources in the building." She said, rapidly typing.

She finally pulled it up after a few moments and cursed.

"Steve you're practically surrounded, on your left there's three people, two in front of you and five behind you. Looks like a few more on the way from your right." She said, biting her lip.

Honestly, things didn't look great from where she was sitting.

Steve readied his shield. "Can you give me a more precise location?" He whispered.

She checked the heat sources. "Closest one is at 2 o'clock, coming fast."

Steve threw his shield in that direction and heard a loud thump. "Got him."

"Two more coming from same angle. They'll be within your arms width in about three seconds."

Steve paused and in three seconds he swung his shield at the darkness, colliding with two more bodies.

"Coming behind you quickly, turn around now."

Steve followed her instructions quickly and raised his shield just in time to block the blow before kicking the man down.

"I'm working on getting lights in there. For now you've got three coming from different directions. First is at 5 o'clock. Then at 11, and the last ones coming from 2."

Steve threw his shield in the directions she gave him while she furiously typed away at her computer, trying to hack into the buildings security.

While still giving Steve instructions, she managed to get into the system.

"I'm in the security system. Lights coming on in three, two, one." She said, pressing a button.

The lights in the building all turned on and Steve could suddenly see all the men dressed in black around him.

He tried to fend them off but he was pretty outnumbered.

Natasha watched nervously and bit her lip. It was obvious that even Steve couldn't handle that many people on his own.

She stood up and went to the pilot of the jet. "Land the jet, we need to give him backup." She demanded.

The pilot shook his head. "I have strict orders from Captain Rogers to not let you leave the jet."

Natasha glared at the pilot. "Now you have strict orders from me. Land the jet."

The pilot remained still. Natasha cursed. She quickly removed him from his seat and took his place.

She brought the jet close to the ground and pressed the intercom again. "Steve get behind your shield."

"What? Why?"

Natasha sighed. "Just do it." She said.

Steve curled up behind his shield and Natasha opened fire on the building, taking out a significant amount of the agents fighting Steve.

She stopped and landed the jet. "There, now continue." She told him.

Steve stood up and started fighting more of the agents. It was as if they were coming out of nowhere.

Natasha watched nervously and eventually grabbed her gun. She drove the jet right up to the door and opened the back, shooting at whoever she could from the jet.

She wouldn't break her promise, but she could still fight.

Eventually, the agents started running towards Natasha as well.

Steve noticed her and ran towards the jet. "Natasha! What are you doing?!"

Natasha shot at each person coming towards her and hid behind a wall so her stomach was shielded from any bullets or weapons. "Saving your ass."

Steve ran besides her and continued fending off the people attacking them. "Damn it Nat. This isn't what I had in mind when I said stay on the jet."

She shrugged. "If I didn't do anything you'd probably be dead."

Steve rolled his eyes and knocked out the last of the people.

He shook his head and walked away from Natasha.

The pilot closed the doors and they took off again.

Natasha sat besides Steve and tried to look at him, but he kept his gaze on the ground.

Natasha sighed. "Look, Steve I'm sorry but I could let you just fight them all alone. You were outnumbered."

Steve shook his head. "I thought we agreed that you were staying in the air Nat? That's what was safest for you and the baby. So why didn't you just call for backup?"

Becoming slightly defensive, Natasha stood up. "Because by the time I did that you would have been dead, and I can't raise a child without you Steve."

Steve stood up with her. "If you get hurt during a mission and we lose the baby, their isn't a baby to raise alone. Natasha my life has to come after yours. It has too."

Natasha's throat tightened. "Steve I don't know anything about kids. I didn't have parents to see what to do and what not to do. I have no idea how to raise a child. Without you I'd be lost. That's why I came to get you."

Steve sighed and pulled Natasha to his chest gently, wrapping his arms around her.

"I know Nat. And I'm not upset, it's just scary to think I could lose you both."

Natasha breathed in his scent and sighed. "No more solo missions without me Steve. Please. Not until I can come help. If there's someone with you I won't be so nervous."

Steve nodded. "Okay. From now on I'll have backup with me."

Natasha sighed in relief. "Good. Now let's go home."

Steve nodded and kissed Natasha's forehead then her lips. "I love you Nat."

"I love you too." Natasha said, kissing Steve.

Hey guys. Hope you enjoyed this, it's longer then normal and kind of all over the place but it took a while  so hopefully it wasn't too bad.
