When we got in the room he tried to throw me but I hadn't let go. So by the laws of physics when he threw me and I didn't let go he fell with me. I started laughing and said "Why didn't you say you were gonna throw me!" He said "Well that's what I usually do so why didn't you know!" I kept laughing and said "Because you usually say '3.2.1!'" He sighed and said "True. Now let go." I said "Say please." He sighed and said "Please." I let go and so did he. He walked out of the room and I pulled the cover over myself and quickly fell asleep.

~Authors note: I aged Clints kids down a little bit so Lila is 7 Cooper is 9 and Nathaniel is only a few months old.~
When I woke up I felt something on my back. I opened my eyes slightly and said "Bruce?" I fully opened my eyes and to my surprise Lila was sitting on my hip. She yelled "GOOD MORNING AUNTIE NAT!" I rubbed my eyes and said "Hey Lila!" She smiled and I saw the bedroom door open and Laura was standing in the door frame. She said "Lila! Leave Nat alone." She said "But mommy! Uncle Bruce said I could come up here!" I sat up and moved Lila to my lap. I said "It's honestly fine Laura. I've been asleep for long enough." Laura smiled and I got out of the bed carrying Lila. Laura said "Cooper is excited to see you. He's downstairs with Bruce at the moment though." I nodded and we all walked downstairs. Bruce was holding Nathaniel and talking to Cooper. I said "Coop..." he turned around and said "Auntie Nat?" I said "Hey coop!" He ran up to me and said "AUNTIE NAT!" He hugged my legs and said "I missed you so much!" I crouched to his height and said "Missed you to bud!" He smiled and said "Kiss?" I kissed his cheek and he smiled big. I stood back up and put Lila down. I walked over to Bruce and said "Give me the baby!" He smiled and handed me Nathaniel. I said "Hey baby boy!" He giggled and clapped his hands. I turned to Clint and said "He would look better as a girl. With the name Natasha." Clint said "Missed you to Nat." He hugged me and I said "But honestly he would." Clint slapped his forehead and I smiled. Lila and Cooper pulled on my shirt and said "Auntie Nat! Auntie Nat!" I looked at them and said "Yes?" Lila said "We wanna play kingdoms again!" I smiled and said "Then you better start calling me Queen Auntie Nat!" They both giggled and Laura said "What's kingdoms?" Cooper said "It's an Auntie Nat game mommy. You wouldn't get it." Laura made a face and I started laughing. I then said "Princess Lila. Prince Coop." They said "Queen Auntie Nat." I said "Please take your little brother to the king!" I handed Nathaniel to Lila and she walked with him to Bruce. She said "Here you go King Uncle Bruce!" Cooper was standing next to her and Bruce took Nathaniel. They ran back to me and I said "Good job you two! Now let go to the secret layer!" I ran up the stairs with the kids and we ran to me and Bruce's room. We sat on the ground and I said "So what do you prince and princess wanna do?" Lila said "We give you make over!" I smiled and said "You wanna do that prince Coop?" He nodded and I said "Princess Lila go get my makeup. Prince Coop go get my hair brush and hair ties." They both nodded and ran off to get the stuff.

When they came back Lila said "Alright Queen Auntie Nat! Get ready for the world best makeover!" I smiled and Lila started putting makeup on me. Cooper started doing my hair and Lila said "Cooper don't tangle her hair! Mommy would be mad. Again." I held back laughter at Lilas smart alec comment. I sat waiting for my makeover to be done.

It had been 30 minutes since the kids finished my hair and makeup but we all were laying on the bed. Coop and Lila were passed out and I seconds away from being asleep to. Even though I slept for hours earlier. I didn't move because both of them were laying their heads on my chest. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

When I woke up Lila and Cooper were shaking me. They said "Bye Auntie Nat." I said "Bye kids." They got up and left leaving me alone in the room. I stayed in bed and Bruce came in. He got on the bed and said "Hey." I said "Hey Bruce." He smiled and said "You and the kids were knocked out. What we're you guys even doing?" I said "Royal work." Bruce tilted his head and said "Royal work?" I nodded and said "It's an Auntie Nat thing you wouldn't get it." Bruce said "Really Nat?" I said "Really." He pushed my head under the covers and said "Im not dealing with this right now." I started laughing and Bruce said "SHHHH! I'm not dealing with you right now so shush." He let go of the covers and I took them off my face. I said "Bruce..." he said "WHAT?!" I widened my eyes and said "No need to be aggressive! I was just trying to ask what you wanted for dinner." He said "One I'm not being 'aggressive' and two I want pasta and chicken." I nodded and said "You are being aggressive." He stared me dead in my eyes and said "I can BE aggressive but I'm not BEING aggressive!" I sat up and said "Mhm yeah not being aggressive." I grabbed his face and kissed him. I got off the bed and said "I'm gonna give Wanda a call." Bruce nodded and I grabbed my phone. I rang Wanda and she answered cheerful as ever. She said "Hey Nat! I'm so happy you called!" I said "Hey Hands! How ya doin?" Wanda said "Nat you know I hate the name hands." I said "Well as your mother figure it's my job to make fun of you."
