Part 41- Aunty y/n

Your pov:

You had been at Clint's safe house for almost a week now, and it was almost safe enough to go home to the tower, you were now well enough to push yourself in the wheelchair but still weren't allowed to walk because nearly all of the stab wounds were in your lower legs, and your screaming nightmares were getting worse, but you had to share a bed with papa and dad, (you may of been 15/16 but you didn't mind) so they were always there for you

It was right now 3 in the afternoon on a Friday, it was also a school day so all the kids were out and would be home soon but obvs you were still there

Tony and Steve were chopping some wood for a fire in the garden, papa's was almost 4 maybe 5 times bigger than Tony's pile they were arguing over something, I think it was that they hadn't seen Thor in quite a while idk, you were just watching on the side lines at this point you just needed some popcorn
(The rest of the avengers -minus Bruce- are out on a small low mission, and would be back in a couple hours)

Laura came out into the field/garden she asked me and papa if we'd look after the kids for a little whilst her and Clint went out for a bit because Bruce was too busy doing something sciencey to look after them and said that their tractor wasn't working and was wondering if Tony would give it a little 'kick', obviously Tony said yes and walked off in the direction of the shed shouting "Don't steal from my pile!" Over his shoulder. You just burst out laughing, papa was trying not to laugh too

Recently you had gotten really close to Clint and Laura's kids, they had even started to call you Aunty y/n. So when you saw Lila running towards you with cooper close behind -limping a little but you didn't take much notice- a huge smile spread across your face
"Hey guys, how was school?" You said to them both

(I don't know how old they actually are so we're just going to pretend that Lila is 5 and in kindergarten, and cooper is in 6th grade so, let's say he's around 11 years old, I know these ages are completely wrong in the mcu storyline but it works for my story line)

"Amazing" Lila beamed with happiness "I got to do dress up, i played a queen and everyone was saying how good I looked, Oooo and I learned the alphabet" she was so excited
"That's sounds great Lila" you looked up at cooper and he looked sad and a little scared "hey buddy whats wrong, what happened?" you asked him, he looked at the ground and went silent, you rolled up to him, and grabbed both of his hands
"Do you want to talk inside?" You asked in a gentle tone, he nodded "ok" you turned to papa "can you look after Lila for a little bit?"

"Of course I can" he said with a concerned look, he picked Lila up and started playing around with her

You wheeled yourself with cooper close behind (luckily Clint had made the house wheelchair friendly for you so you could get around easily) you went into the lounge and he sat on the couch with you facing him "so what happened at school, honey?" You started softly, he looked down and shook his head "cooper look at me" you said a little sternly but still soft "you know you can talk to me, I won't tell anyone if you don't want to, unless you're in danger or someone else is in danger, understand?" You said to him
He nodded again and opened his mouth to start talking

"T-there a-re these b-boys at school" he started slowly, clearly struggling to get his words out
"Take your time sweetheart" you said to him, he paused for a second

"Actually don't worry about it, it's stupid" he said before shaking his head and trying to get up
"Cooper" you said with a warning tone, he looked down at you, rolled his eyes and sat back down "look. It may seem like I won't understand you, or get what is going on, but I was 11 only 4 years ago, that's not that long ago, so there is a high chance I'll get what's going on" you said back in your gentle tone, he grunted in frustration

"Fine, the boys at school are laughing in my face for being Hawkeye's son and today they came up to me and punched me multiple times, and they kicked me a couple times to, whilst laughing in my face in the process, calling me names like 'chubby' and 'spoilt brat', and I am hurting a little right now and please don't tell dad cause he'll tell someone and I don't want to do that cause it'll just make things worse, a-and and, a-and-" he rambled

"Hey hey hey hey, look at me" you interrupted "where did they hurt you cooper?" You asked extremely concerned because of how he was limping earlier, you were kicking yourself that you took no notice of it at the time
"My tummy mainly but they kicked me all over apart from my face, they said it was so they wouldn't make an already ugly face any uglier" he said almost crying
'Oh that poor kid' you thought to yourself

"Ok cooper, here's what we're going to do, I'm going to have to tell your parents, and as the person who is looking after to you at this moment in time, I want Bruce to look you over, mainly because of how you were limping earlier and being kicked in the gut can cause some very bad things" you explained, Cooper looked absolutely terrified, and a little sad
You grabbed his hand and squeezed it tightly "I will be with you the entire time, and you don't have to do anything you don't want to, Bruce is one of the kindest men on earth- when he's human that is" this made him laugh

"You still have to tell mom and dad though don't you?" He questioned
"Yes, I do buddy, but it's up to you who tells them, and we can wait for them to get home for Bruce to check you over?" You said trying to make the best out of a bad situation

"No, being punched hurts like hell. Bruce can do his thing now, but I bet you I'm fine, and can you tell my parents?" He said still scared
"Yea I will, let's go and see Bruce than shall we?" You said trying to sound cheerful
