    Summary

    she was a silent fighter,
    with a demon in her lung,
    that stole her breaths right from her,
    before they'd barely passed her tongue.
    he was a silent fighter,
    who was always taught to share,
    and held his breath when he was with her,
    just so she could have his air.
    — e.h

    or, in which natasha gets sick, really sick. lung cancer, three months, palliative care; that was what the doctor said as she watched the days fly by on the calendar. but she found herself at ease knowing that a particular someone stayed, even with forced smiles, strangled sobs and all the unimaginable pain he had been hiding from her. so when the time came, he could do nothing but hold his breath, hoping the air would be enough for her to breathe.

    Summary

    He didn't remember her. Natasha knew this because whenever he'd pass her in the hall or when he'd hang out at the facility with Steve and Sam, he'd look at her like he'd look at every other person in the room. Her Soldier didn't look at her like that. Her Soldier looked at her with warmth and tenderness, a breath of fresh air in the icy cage that was the Red Room. He didn't remember her and maybe that was her own fault.

    -

    In which Bucky doesn't remember Natasha at all and he probably never will, and it's eating away at her. Set after Endgame.

    Summary

    Natasha stared at the arm in the drawer. It looked wrong, like a torn off limb. The general shape was the same with more elegant plates. She could almost see the fingers move if she didn’t look at them directly, but the color was different. The oxidized silver of vibranium with bands of gold as highlights. The star was gone, and she couldn’t decide whether or not that was a good thing.

    Summary

    “What year do you think this is?” The Soldier looked like he was ready to bolt.
    Natalia’s mouth was dry despite the water she’d drunk so recently. This was bad. Very bad. “I don’t know.” It came out as a whisper. Her body buzzed as if it was filled with static. As if she was a snow globe that someone had shaken so hard that the falling snow had turned into a blizzard, making it impossible to see the object within.
    “Fuck.” He said for the second time. Apparently noticing her reaction, he stepped closer, grasping the railing of her bed with both hands. “You’re safe. This isn’t the Red Room, no one’s gonna punish you or anything for a wrong answer, but Christ, Romanoff…” He trailed off.

    *************

    Natasha loses her memories during a fight and while everyone around her wants to help her recover them, she only trusts one person: Bucky Barnes, the former Winter Soldier.

    Summary

    This was wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Someone was messing with her head.
    “No.” Natasha's voice came out as a whisper.
    Somewhere far off, a familiar voice said, “A soul for a soul. An everlasting exchange. That’s what you told them.”
    She knew that voice and the man behind it, but no name came to her, only colors. Garish and bright. Red, white, and blue.
