                                                         Hayden POV 


It was later after getting everything checked out and Bruce saying everything looked fine, I was sitting on the couch with Wanda, Peter and Pietro, we were watching a movie,

"You know for a thirteen year old you are very good shot," Wanda said 

"Fourteen," I said 

They looked at me funny, 

"I turned fourteen on the fourteenth," I said taking a sip of my drink

Their eyes nearly popped out of their heads, 

"Why didn't you say anything!?" Wanda asked 

"Didn't think it was important," I mumbled taking a bite of the Pizza, 

"Of course it's important!" Peter said 

"Would you two spot with the yelling, it's not a big deal alright, so just drop it," I said 

They looked at each other, 

"Besides, I've never celebrated my birthday before why start now," I said adjusting the ice pack, 

It was later that night, I was trying to sleep on the couch, but my arm was killing me, so I decided I would try to sleep in my room, 


                                        Clint POV 


The twins and Peter said they wanted to talk to us, they seemed pretty upset, so here we all were, 

"So what seems to be the problem?" Nat asked 

I was taking a sip of water, 

"Did any of you know that Hayden's birthday was the fourteenth?" Peter said 

I nearly spit my drink out, 

"What?" I asked 

"How do you know?" Steve asked 

"She told us after we made a crack about her age," Pietro said 

"Why didn't she say anything?" Bucky said 

"She told us she didn't think it was important," Peter said 

"Were gonna have to do something," Tony said 

"Yeah I agree," Steve said nodding 

I just simply stood up and walked out of the room, I find Hayden in her room asleep, 

She looked peaceful, 

Why does she think her birthday isn't important? I thought 

Is it because of what her parents put her through,or is it something as simple as not wanting to celebrate? I thought 

I brushed some of her hair out of her face, and I smiled at her, 

"You really do keep me on my toes don't you?" I mumbled 

I kissed her forehead and walked out of the room letting her get some sleep, she thinks I don't know but I've seen she hasn't been sleeping very well, 

Probably has to do with the fact that a lot has happened lately, I thought walking down the hall
