Running Fearless ( Avengers Fanfiction)

Chapter 20

"I shouldn't be upset!" Katie's voice carried through the large plane. Mason and Natasha sat trying their best not to eavesdrop, but the way they were yelling, it was impossible not to. "That's rich, I shouldn't be upset that my husband has been keeping secrets from me for the duration of our marriage."

"Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black!" Clint's snapped his voice equally loud. "You've practically had Tony fucking Stark living under our roof, but did that come up in conversation? Nope!"

"You don't even know what you're talking about!" Katie snapped. "JARVIS being at the house in no way shape or form had any connection whatsoever to Tony. But all you hear is Tony and you become this jealous He-Monster and it getting annoying!"

Natasha and Mason share a look, both trying not to look too amused with the entire conversation. But as they sat there, they couldn't help the slight smiles on their faces. Katie and Clint were a married couple, fighting like a married couple.

"We're going to be landing soon, one of us should go shut that down." Rick said not making a move to stand. He looked at Natasha with an expectant look. "And since all anyone ever tells me is that my mouth will only make matters worse, I think it's only natural that you go."

"Not on your life." Natasha replied leaning back in her seat and closing her eyes in an attempt to get some rest.

Clint and Katie stood staring at one another, still very much upset with the other. At the moment both realized that each were partly wrong and should apologize, but neither wanted to go first.

"I should've told you about SHIELD." Clint finally admitted. "I wanted the happily ever after too and I wanted to believe in it, but I wasn't going to be ignorant to the fact that there were people out there still actively looking for you. And because of that your safety came first."

"Tony really doesn't know that I have JARVIS. He hasn't been spying on us or anything like that. The truth is JARVIS is an independent entity that Tony created and that I happen to think is remarkable. So sometimes when I'm bored I tinker with him just to see how far I can push him."

"So this was about JARVIS?"

"Yes, the non human, artificial intelligent computer generated entity." Katie said. "Tony would probably kill me if he knew I was messing with his AI without him. He lives for this kind of stuff, but I'm—" she saw the look in Clint's eyes and figured she should probably stop talking. "I'm sorry for keeping it from you. I know we're suppose to be all up front with the honesty now that I have your last name, so I promise to try harder."

"Me too." Clint says pulling her into his arms. Katie placed her hands on his chest and smiled up into his eyes. "That was like our first real fight as a married couple, huh?"

"Yeah, I'm glad it's over."

"Me too." Clint said before leaning down and pressing his lips to hers. Suddenly the fact that they had the room to themselves crept up in their minds and so the kiss lingered a little longer. Their hands began moving in places that only took them to places they probably shouldn't go on this plane, but neither stopped. At this point, their bodies had a mind of their own and they were just along for the ride. Soon Clint fell back into one of the seats as Katie straddled his lap.

"We should fight more often." he muttered against her lips as her hand trailed down his pants.

Natasha and Rick sat there for a few moments before they realized that the arguing had stopped.

"I guess they worked it out," Rick said looking over his seat to the door Katie and Clint had disappeared behind. "You think I should go give them the heads up."
