"You're right. I am pushing you away." She stated as she came to look at him. "You're an amazing man, and I adore you still. But you have Betty now. And all I'll be is a distraction." She replied as she came to look at Bruce finally. "She's very lovely. And she cares a lot about you. So I don't want to ruin that or get in the middle of it." She replied as she came to exhale and finish that beer for the moment.
"As for blending in. I blend in when I;m not being noticed. The only one who seems to notice me is you." She came to look at Bruce once more as she placed her hand on the side of his face. "Trust me, Banner, if it's one thing I've come to accept about myself is nothing good stays with me. That includes friends and loved ones." She replied as she rubbed his cheek lightly with a flatline smirk.
A light kiss on his cheek was given, as she caught the edges of his lips. But she came to a stand after that. "Focus on work. Focus on Betty, focus on Tony since he needs you more than I do. Remember, I've been on my own half my life, long before SHIELD came along. It makes things easier." She stated lightly.
She thought about Steve and Bucky and how they just left. How Bruce had found his soulmate which was a rare thing to happen and even Tony had found someone. That life wasn't meant for Nat. She came to accept that now. As she came to let her red hair dance in the wind for the moment. If he looked closely, he would notice that wet stain on her features from a tear or two escaping.
"I'll see you around Bruce. I'll try not to be too much of a stranger."
