Seeing Red
Natasha had spent the few days digging up as much information as she could on Matt's wife and her murder. She used her SHIELD credentials to get in to see Meeks. The man was still in the hospital after the beating Matt gave him, but he could talk. Talk he did. Natasha got a confession out of him and more information on who hired Meeks.

She wasn't sure if she should take this information to Matt, but she promised she would help him. The Widow always kept her word.

Natasha sighed and knocked on Matt's door.

Elektra had been staying with Matt for a little while. She'd definitely noticed a bit of a change in him since the murder of his wife, as he was more quiet, more...distant. Normally, she'd leave him alone and not bother him if he didn't want to talk. But it was Matt. She couldn't just leave him alone, no matter how hard she tried.

Elektra was finishing up a nice, hot, relaxing shower when she heard a knock on the door. "I'll get it," she called down the hall to Matt, throwing on her bathrobe and a towel over her wet hair. She opened the door.

The look on her face was not one of delight when she saw who was on the other side of the door.

	"Why am I not surprised?" Natasha said very dryly. "You always show up when you're not wanted or needed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Her sais were right there in the hall closet...she could just open the door and grab them quickly... Elektra pushed that thought out of her mind. As much as she often wanted to claw Natasha's eyes out...Matt was pretty much the ONLY thing that kept her from doing that. "And I was having such a good day too," Elektra said bitterly, "What do you want?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Matt was on his way to the shower when he heard a familiar heartbeat coming down the hall. Of course, he'd wanted to beat Elektra to the door, but he could already hear her walking toward it.

This was going to be bad.

"This is not my day." he mutters as he steps into view...in a towel.

"Hi, Natasha." Matt says, hoping to direct both womens' attention to a mutual target.

"Do you want to come in?" he asks.

"Likewise," Natasha said with a scowl. "I'm here to see Matt and it's none of your business."

Oh totally distracted for a few seconds by the sight of Matt in a towel with drops of water still clinging to his skin. There was a sharp intake of breath and a warm flush at the memories of the other night.

"I have information for you," she said without answering his question.

	Elektra folded her arms over her chest. "If it's about what's happened a couple of nights ago," she said coolly, "Whatever you have to tell him, you can say in front of me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ladies, uh, I'm sure we can all just talk. Tasha, it's okay. When I mentioned I had a guest the other night...I meant Elektra." Matt says. "We can all discuss this together. In fact, why don't I put on some coffee and get presentable. In fact, it would help if all of us were presentable before this went any further." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I now see why you didn't want to come home," she said. She couldn't help it. Just seeing the Greek Ninja put her in a bad mood. "There's no need to talk. I just stopped by to give you this." She placed a manila folder into his hands. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He didn't come home because he was with HER? Elektra's lip went into a snarl. "Oh you did NOT just say that..." her eyes went towards the closet. She didn't have to stab any vital organs... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh, Tasha...

Matt can almost hear Elektra's heartbeat skip slightly. He moves forward in the towel, trying to get between Elektra and Tasha right now. Otherwise, someone was going to die or get seriously injured.

He takes the manila folder from Tasha.

"Tasha, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you'd stop by, or I'd have asked to meet you elsewhere. I know you and Elektra...have issues." he says.

	"I did, Ninja. I can't help it if he wanted a real woman," Natasha smirked. Natasha leaned forward and placed a kiss on Matt's cheek. "Let me know when you want to go dance," she whispered into his ear. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Why I'm going to-" Elektra began, but she didn't exactly get to what she was going to do, as Matt stepped in between them both. She settled for staring daggers at Natasha. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Matt turns a shade of red reminiscent of his costume as Tasha whispers in his ear in front of Elektra. The two of them hated each other, and he should known that the moment Tasha showed up. "Elektra, do you want to go get dressed? We'll go have breakfast in a moment." Matt says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"A pleasure as always, Greek," Natasha smirked before slipping out the door. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Widow leaves and now Matt turns back to Elektra's retreating backside. "Elektra, wait. I can explain..." he says, closing the door after them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If Matt could see, he'd be at a loss for words. He can still hear the rustle of fabric against her skin, and the sound of the cloth hitting the floor. "And which part would that be?" Matt asks. He's not even sure he wants to know the answer, but Elektra's irritation was almost palpable. "She wanted to get to you." Matt says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"At least I now know that you weren't lying in a ditch somewhere," Elektra said, walking over to the dresser, ruffling through it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	This was going badly. "I...got shot the other night. Tasha patched me up. I would have come home, but I was too out of it." he says. "I apologize for not calling you. I was...out of sorts." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes. And to preoccupied with the Russian to not bother calling me, apparently. I do worry about you, you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	guardian_devil 2010-07-16 01:41 am UTC (link)
	"I know, Elektra. I worry about you, too. I just figured you needed space to figure things out and I didn't want to burden you with my issues. It wouldn't be good for either of us." he says. That way lay danger. It always has. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Matt. You've never been a burden to me. If anything, I'd think it would be the other way around." Lord knows that she's caused him plenty of trouble in the past. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No, it isn't. You've never been been a burden, Elektra. You never will be." he tells her. "Are you less mad at me now? Think we could have breakfast together?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She touched his face. "And you could never be a burden to me." A smirk crossed her face. "Even if you tried." "Maybe...if you're cooking." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
