(26) Ooh, Has Someone Finally Decided to Trust Me With the Bare Minimum

[Natasha's POV]

"...His dad," Nico answered.

Natasha nodded. She doubted Nico would tell her anything more than that. If she wanted answers then she would have to ask Clint himself.

Nico sighed and rubbed his forehead. He said, "Look, it's not because I don't want to tell you that I'm giving such vague answers. If Clint hasn't told you yet after all these years together it's because he wants to protect you and I don't want to impose on his decision. Can you accept that?"

"Yeah, that's fine. I'll still try to trick it out of you, though," Natasha replied slyly which caused Nico to grin.

"Fair enough," he said, standing up. Just as he began brushing off his pants, Clint and Will walked in, coffees in hand.

Spiderman, Tony, and Bruce walked in behind them. Natasha noticed Nico walking up to Will quietly, asking him something inaudible. Will nodded and glanced at Clint causing Nico to give him a small smile.

He and Clint must have worked it out, Natasha thought.

The others settled down on the floor, completing the semi-circle they had started, and passed around the coffees.

"So," Tony started. "We bought a house and I had Jarvis order all the necessities already."

"That fast?" Will asked with a mildly impressed tone.

"Of course," Tony replied smugly. "So I was wondering if you guys wanted to go there now or tomorrow morning."

"Well, no time like the present," Steve said. The other Avengers groaned, not wanting to get up. "C'mon, the sooner we go, the sooner we can rest up," he urged. They reluctantly began standing up at his 'motivational' words.

"Are you two coming with?" Spiderman asked the demigods.

They looked to be pondering it over for a bit before Will replied, "Nah, maybe next time. We should get back before it starts to get dark, though." Nico nodded at his words.

"Bye, guys," Nico said before placing a hand on Will's shoulder.

"Neeks, wait—" Will got cut off by the shadows enveloping them.

The Avengers were left a little dumbstruck but began moving again, realizing they were right in the fact that it would get dark soon. They quickly packed their few bags and set off to the house Tony bought.

[Ladybug's POV]

After Chat Noir set the two of them down on the Eiffel Tower, Ladybug hopped down. "Buzz off," she said, causing Pollen to float into her cupped hands tiredly. "Uh, Chat," she began.

"Go hide in the elevator; I'll keep watch," he said before she could finish.

"Thanks," she said. Ladybug hid in the elevator and ducked down. "Spots off." She produced two macaroons from her purse and handed them to the Kwamis. "Well?" Marinette prompted.

"Yes, I definitely saw some familiar places," Pollen said once she swallowed a few bites. Marinette gasped in excitement. "Chat!" she called out.

Chat Noir walked in with his hand over his eyes. He took his staff out from behind his back and relied on muscle memory to swipe through it till he reached his photo gallery. He had taken pictures of the area while they were scouting so Pollen could tell them exactly where the lair was.

"Here, m'lady," he offered her the staff.

"Pollen, can you point out where it is?" Marinette asked. She began swiping through the photos slowly so that Pollen could see clearly. Chat Noir sat down next to them, keeping his hand over his eyes.
