As the guys run straight towards the water, you and Nat lay down towels and sunbathe.
You sit leaning back on your elbows as you watch them for a while.
"So Natasha" you grin. "Who have you got your eyes on?"
"What?" she laughs at you. "No one."
"Oh come on. We live in a compound full of guys and you're telling me that you don't fancy a single one of them?"
"... no."
"Aha! There is someone!"
"I said no."
"But you hesitated. Come on, Nat, tell me."
"Mm" Nat pulls a disagreeing face.
"What about- what happened with you and Steve?"
"Me and Steve? When was there a me and Steve?"
"Don't play dumb with me. You guys used to flirt back and forth all the time."
"That was a long time ago. And plus..."
"What?"
"Steve's old. That's not very-"
"Tread lightly Natasha" you joke, glancing at your own boyfriend over a hundred years of age.
"Not that there's anything wrong with being old. It's not like they've got grey hairs and arthritis."
"Yeah, no. They're still fit" you admire the guys, Bucky in particular. All in their trunks as they play frisbee in the sea.
"Mm. So let's talk about you and Bucky then" Nat changes the subject.
"What about us?"
"You've been together for a while now. Aren't you ready for more than that?"
You take a moment to think.
"I'd be ready to marry that man any day" you admit. "But I don't know if Bucky is ready for that kind of commitment yet."
"He's committed to you."
"Marriage is a different kind of commitment. But it's fine because I want everything he wants. I'm happy as long as he is."
"That's sweet. I hope one day I find someone that makes me as happy as you guys make each other."
"Maybe you've already met him."
Natasha glances at you questioningly. You nod your head at the guys. She rolls her eyes and you laugh as she throws a handful of sand at you.
You both lie back under the sun and quietly relax for about twenty minutes.
Until you're disturbed.
You enjoy the sun until a shadow casts over you and you open your eyes.
Tony stands there, next to Thor, Clint, Sam and Bruce.
"Oh hey guys" you smile.
"What are you doing?" Thor asks.
"What do you mean?"
"I think he means what are you doing just lying in the sand?" Tony follows up.
"I'm sunbathing. What else am I supposed to do?"
"Come in the water" Sam laughs. "That's what you're dressed for."
"No thanks."
"Why not?" Tony questions.
"I'm tanning."
"That's so boring."
"I'm not going in the water Tony."
