You and Bucky have a complicated past. After you escaped the Red Room, you swore to resent everything that happened to you as a widow, including her fleeting connection with the soldier.
Ten years later, you meet again, you on the Avengers and him being brought out to help on a mission. However, since Bucky doesn’t remember everything he did in the 70 years of his torture, he seems to have forgotten you. You resent him because you idolized him when you were a widow, and in your head, he represents your traumatic past life. In addition to pursuing a rebel group known as Nova, you must learn to work through your issues to ensure that Nova’s plan for world domination doesn’t come to fruition.
However, this journey forces you to face your individual pasts, one that Bucky wants to come to terms with and you want to forget. Will you two be able to reconcile your differences? Or will the weight of the past crush your relationship with the one man who knew you best?
**based off natasha and bucky's romance in the comics, I loved their story together and wanted to do an interpretation of it :)
