IT WAS just after you two had graduated the academy. Fully fledged field agents for SHIELD. The entire graduating group, which was only about twenty other people, had gone to a bar to celebrate. You and Clint Barton had finished at the top of your class. It had been a competition between the two of you to see who got better marks on the finals. He had barely beaten you and he'd been standing on a table announcing it to anyone that would listen for the last five minutes. You sat on a couch, grumbling about the very few points that made the difference and watching him make fool of himself. In his defense, he had probably had a few too many drinks.
At the end of finals, each of you had been asked to request another agent as your partner, although the higher ups at SHIELD would ultimately be making the final decisions. Clint had been pestering you about who you had chosen since the end of finals, but tonight you were finally going to burst.
"You! I chose you, you idiot. Get off the table and drink a glass of water!" You snapped at him. Perhaps you two argued a lot, but in all the practice simulations you two had pulled the fastest times when you worked together. Not to mention, you might have had the slightest crush on him, but the chemistry only made you two more productive when you worked together.
"Me?" He cried, clutching at his chest. "You chose me?! The best agent--actually you're second best because, I beat you--but you chose me?! I chose you too, so don't worry." He winked, causing you to sink further into the couch in embarrassment at the scene he was making. It wouldn't be the last proclamation he made that night, but it might have been the last one you remembered before the drinks set in.....and you woke up the next morning curled up with your new SHIELD partner....
