A few days later and Natasha had still not gone into work, she couldn't bare to face Steve. However, Clint seemed to have moved on already, well enough to get him to the avengers headquarters.

It was early morning and Clint was up the same time as ever and then went to do his work out and he heard tears strong heavy tears like lashing rain falling from the darkest of clouds. He had no clue of what happened that night Steve reminded her of what she truly used to care about but since that night he knew something had gone on. Clint had known Natasha for years and years now and knew she wasn't the easiest to talk to when upset, but with a force slammed open the bedroom door and demanded she explain. He waited... "WELL..." Still nothing. Her face was coved by her back which was currently facing Clint as she couldn't bare to have him see her this way. He grabbed her shoulder and forcefully turned her so he could see her face and as she opened her mouth to speak, all he saw were tears so he sat beside her and just gave her a friendly hug, as the waterfall fell.

Hours had past and Clint was now with Steve knowing nothing but that he had to ask Steve if anything had happened.

"As you can see, we only know that he has a base th..."

"Last Thursday what happened to Nat!!!" Clint demanded

"What do you mean?" Steve quickly replied

"I don't know,.. But I know she came back Thursday evening, then left without eating and then didn't come home till the next morning drenched in rain and what looked like tears and looking like she hadn't had a wink of sleep. And you don't seem to have any questions to why she isn't here! What's going on!?"

"Look, that day we found out about a horrid villain who had threatened us so we were all worked up and maybe she felt stresses by banner but I have been working with Nat for a while and I think it's best to give her space."

"SPACE! It's Tuesday its nearly been a week, this isn't her, that wouldn't effect her!"

"I'm sorry...." He started to sweat suspiciously " I can't help you"

Clint gave him a dirty look that just said I know that you know what's happened. Still, after the look they both continued and hid from the ugly truth for as long as Steve could keep calm.

Clint was about to leave when cap shouted his name and said what happened and said that he was sorry. Clint became confused. However with question, he left. He couldn't get it off his mind, why did he go for a kiss, why does he always get flustered when thinking off her. Clint worked out Steve actually had fell in love, but he also became angry as Clint knew deep down he did still love her.

After finding out what had gone on, when he was home Clint went to Nat and it seemed as if she had stopped crying but still, he sat and told her what he knew and she nodded and then their eyes locked and they both moved and first a kiss then it went further. Natasha stroked her hand down his cheek and she felt at home. She felt safe and loved and she didn't want it to stop. Clint's hand traveled down her skin and then reached her right thy. He pulled it close over himself. They then both stopped with their eyes still locked they knew what they were about to do and neither of them stopped themselves. It was serious now.

It was late next morning, they had slept over the alarm but Clint had woke up. He was running about as quiet as possible not to wake the sleeping beauty. He knew he wanted and that he should tell Steve what had happened but this time wanted to make sure it was true and not drunk fun.

It was later that day and although his earlier thoughts, Clint went a head and told Steve last nights truths and instantly Steve became angry and lost control. He picked up a pole from the table and went to whack it round Clint's head, but in quick defence he grabbed the pole before it could make close contact. Clint used all of his might to push against the super-soldier's force of anger and disappointment but they both knew Clint was no match. Clint's hands slipped. He face hit hard and down to the floor in what seemed a huge blur. Clint went dizzy as blood become to drip from the to right corner of the hit agents head. Cap went over to grab his sheiks but before he got there a knife was stabbed into his back followed by the words of "you've lost this time." Steve didn't reply he just swung his leg into Clint's side and hit him down again then kicked his chest lifted him up again and I'm an instant remembered why they were fighting and before anything drastic happened place him down. Clint curious, he backed off and went to clean up.

As he cleaned up, he faced the question of does he go back out and face what just happened, or go home and try to forget. Unfortunately, before he had time to make up his mind he was greeted by the wounded Captain America - who at that point didn't feel much like a captain - he had come to give his apologies, but Clint wouldn't listen.

"Come on Clint, I said I'm sorry and I know what I did was wrong but now your gonna stand there and not even acknowledge I'm here. I'm human y'know behind the treatment, I have feelings and sometimes they take over me I haven't had them in so long it's a weird sensation, that I'll have to get used to.... You love her right so would you have not done the same... " Steve went on trying to show Clint how he felt but soon ran out of ideas so waited for Clint to take his move. It felt like the worse game of chess ever one has the queen the other wants it so picks off the defence one by one.

"I would never swing a pole at my friend and allies face no matter what drove me to think about doing it.... " they both waited " if she chooses me then I will be happy but if she chose you, I would learn to live with it,.. why can't you?" Clint stormed off with heavy foot steps. And once he had left the room Stevens. Voice piped up and spoke

"I... I love her." M
