Then ask me out already... ask me to go steady, to be your girl. I want to be the only one in your life. Period, and I want all the labels. I've never had them.
[she laughs as she spells it out for him. Only for him would she ever do such a thing. He should know being as old fashioned as he is what it means to have a girl, but she'll give him pause for missing half his life.
tipping her head, she casts her eye at the blossom behind her ear. He sure is sweet, 100% candy. All that she's ever wanted.]
I'll try to give myself more credit, because you see so much in me.
[she shakes her head, and then is finally silent when he asks her to be his. It's what she's been wanting all along. It was why she never wanted to have time alone with him, and why she always wanted to be alone with him. Feelings were weird and complicated. ]
That was hard, wasn't it?
[she reaches up and runs her hand over his cheek]
Yes, Steven Rogers. I will be beyond happy to be your girlfriend. You know this means you're going to have to kiss me on a regular basis now, think you might be able to handle it?
[pulling him back to her, she steals another kiss-- this one a little bit longer, enough to let him know how much he means to her and to slide her tongue into his mouth to deepen things and take them to the next level. Natasha doesn't mind taking her time with Steve, but she has a thing for kissing. He's going to have to get used to it. That and being close.
Now that she's with him, she has the need to feel close to Steve. It's nothing she's ever really give to anyone else-- always keeping them at arms length. For this, she'd give up quite a bit.]
I think I know how to do the undercover gig. I might have been doing it a few years now.
[she smirks, but doesn't move away from him an inch. ]
Good thing we're not undercover now. We've got all evening to ourselves. I wonder how in the world we'll ever deal.

Would you like to be my girlfriend?
[ That might work a little better. Modernize it. Bring it to the current year. ]

But now you know what we can't do?
We can't do this undercover. It'll get blown.
[ Which is an unfortunate trade-off. They won't be able to do missions together. ]
