Y/N's P.O.V

We all walk into the house and start looking around.

Melina: Welcome to my humble abode. Make yourself at home. Let's have a drink.

Mum and I walk into the kitchen, and we see Melina put her rifle away in a secret room.

Natasha: Hey, no funny business.

Melina: I'm just putting my weapon away.

Mum then goes over to the sink.

Natasha: Any booby traps we gotta worry about? Anything we need to know about?

Melina: I didn't raise my girls to fall into traps.

Natasha: You didn't raise us at all, and I didn't raise my son to fall into traps.

Y/N: That's true actually.

Melina: Maybe so, but if you got soft it wasn't on my watch.

Y/N: Wow, you can just feel the awkwardness.

Melina then looks at me.

Y/N: Sorry, I tend to make bad jokes in tense situations.

Melina: Well, that one was definitely bad.

Y/N: Nice to meet you too grandma.

Melina then walks off into the dining room.

Melina: Please do not call me that.

Y/N: Okay.

Mum and I then follow her in to the dining room.

Once we sit down we wait for Alexei to come back, but as we're waiting we hear him groaning and struggling in the bathroom.

Melina then takes the cap of a bottle of alcohol.

Melina: Let's drink.

She starts filling up our glasses.

Y/N: Definitely.

I take a shot and down it.

Melina: You definitely have some Russian in you if you can do that without blinking.

Y/N: Yeah, I guess I do.

We then hear footsteps and look over to see Alexei wearing his Red Guardian suit.

Alexei: It still fits.

Melina wolf whistles.

Yelena: Oh my god.

Y/N: Are you sure about that? 

Alexei starts laughing and comes over to the table.

Melina: I didn't wash it once. Come and drink.

Alexei sits down and puts him helmet on the floor.

Alexei: Family, back together again. With our grandson as a new addition to our family.

Melina: Seeing as our family construct was just a calculated ruse that only lasted for three years, I don't think we can use that term anymore, can we?

Natasha: Agreed.

Mum leans forward.

Natasha: So, here's what's gonna happen...

Alexei: Okay. A reunion then, huh? And uh, I want to say something right off the bat.

He looks at Melina.

Alexi: You haven't aged a day, huh? You're just as beautiful and as supple as the day they staged our marriage.

I start to feel sick as he says this, and both Yelena and I take another shot after hearing that.

Melina: You got fat, but still good.

Alexei: I just got out of prison. I uh, I have a lot of energy.

Y/N: Oh Jesus.

Natasha: Please don't do that. So, here's what's gonna happen...

Melina: Natasha, don't slouch.

Natasha: What? I'm not slouching.

Melina: Yes, yes you are.

Natasha: I don't slouch.

Melina: You're going to get a back hunch.

Alexei: Come on, listen to your mother. Up, up.

I can't help but chuckle at this.

Natasha: Alright, enough. All of you.

Y/N: What?

Yelena points to both of us.

Yelena: We didn't say anything. That's not fair.

Natasha: Here's what's gonna happen...

Yelena: I don't want any food.

Melina: Eat a little something Yelena, for God's sake.

Y/N: What mum is trying to say is that you're gonna tell us the location of the Red Room.

Natasha: Exactly.

Melina: You know, it's like when you told them they could stay up late to catch Santa Claus.

Alexei: What? That was fun. I want them to follow their dreams. Reach for the stars girl!

Natasha: Finding Dreykov isn't a fantasy. It's unfinished business.

Melina: You can't defeat a man who commands the will of other's.

Melina then demonstrates this by bringing in one of her pigs and commanding it to stop breathing.

Melina: We infiltrated the North Institute in Ohio. It was a front for S.H.I.E.L.D scientists. Actually, it was HYDRA scientists at that time. It was incojunction with the Winter Soldier program, they had dissected and deconstructed thr human brain to crate the first and only cellular blueprint of basal ganglia. Was the hub for cognition.

As Melina carries on explaining I notice the pig still isn't breathing.

Y/N: Yeah, we're fully aware of that. We're the ones that helped Captain America put a stop to it.

Melina: Well, of course you helped given that you're his sidekick.

Y/N: I'm not his sidekick! Why does everyone keep saying that?

Melina: And there's also that fact that HYDRA wanted you to become the next Winter Soldier.

Y/N: Yeah, I'm aware of that too.

As Melina carries on explaining I notice the pig still isn't breathing.

Y/N: What are you doing?

Melina: I'm demonstrating that the science is now so exact, the subject can be instructed to stop breathing and has no choice but to obey.

Y/N: Okay, you've proved your point now stop.

Melina then let's the pig breath again and it gets up then leaves the house.

Melina then tells us how Dreykov has Black Widows all around the world.

Yelena: And do you know who they test it on?

Melina: Mmm... No, that's not my department.

Alexei: Ah, come on. Don't lie to them.

Melina: I'm not lying.

Alexei: Melina, you're Dreykov's architect, yes?

Melina: What were you? If I was his architect, you were his partner. You were his business partner.

Alexei: No, no! I was patsy!

Alexei and Melina then start to argue, but mum stops it and looks at the two of them.

Natasha: Shut up! You are an idiot. And you're a coward. You're a coward. Our family was never real, so there's nothing to hold on to. The only family I have in this room is Y/N. We're moving on.

Alexei: Never family, huh? In my heart, I am simple man. And I think that for a couple of undercover Russian agents I think we did pretty great as parents, huh?

Melina: Yes, we had our orders and we played our roles to perfection.

Natasha: Who cares? That wasn't real.

Yelena: What?

Natasha: That wasn't real. Who cares?

Yelena: Don't say that. Please don't say that. It was real.

Yelena then starts to tear up.

Yelena: It was real to me. You were my mother. You were my real mother. The closest thing I ever had to one. The best part of my life was fake, and none of you told me. And those agents you chemically subjugated around the world? I was one of them. Mmm.

She then looks at mum.

Yelena: And you, you got out and you had a beautiful little boy. But after that Dreykov made sure no-one could escape. Are you gonna say anything?

Mum stays silent.

Yelena: No.

Melina goes to hold Yelena's hand.

Yelena: Don't touch me.

Yelena then grabs the bottle of vodka and leaves the table.

Y/N: Yelena...

She ignores me and goes into a bedroom.

Alexei then gets up and goes to talk to her, while mum, grandma and I sit at the table in silence.
