I got a call a few days after playing never have I ever with Clint telling me to come meet him at the Avengers tower. I had to teach that morning, but I came out just after. Clint was waiting in the lobby trying to look completely indiscreet, but failing miserably. I skipped over to him and kissed his cheek. "What's up, bird friend?" I asked.

Clint chuckled and shook his head. "You're a complete dork you know that?" He said taking my elbow and leading me to the elevator.

"So I've been told," I answered.

We got into an elevator by ourselves. Someone else tried to get in behind her but Clint gave her such a murder look she faltered and stepped back out again.

"It's time for you to meet Tony." He said when the doors closed.

I stepped back from him and fidgeted on the spot. "Okay," I said, nervously.

Clint took my hand and squeezed it. "Remember, this isn't a challenge. You don't have to force yourself into a relationship. You shouldn't do that. All you need to do is be open to things if this is something you're interested in. Maybe for you and Tony, you're just friends. But if he doesn't approve you, we can't really move forward from here, because this is what Nat and I have. You understand?"

I nodded. "So what should I do?"

The elevator stopped and we both got out. "Just be yourself. Get to know him. Don't lie about yourself to get him to like you. That's just going to hurt people in the long run."

I nodded still chewing my lip. He pulled me close to him, wrapping me tightly in his arms. "It's weird, I get it. But you're doing fine." He kissed me, smashing our lips together. When he pulled back he turned me to face the hallway ahead. "He's in his office for a change. Right up there on the left." He said, pushing me forward and giving my ass a slap. "Go get 'im, tiger."

I wandered down the hall keeping my eyes peeled for Tony. Turned out, he spotted me first.

"You... what are you doing here?" He said, clicking his fingers.

I stopped at the door and poked my head in. "I'm sorry, Mr. Stark. Clint said..."

"Oh, one of Clint's girls. There should be protocol in place to deal with that." He said, shuffling some papers on the desk.

"You mean a 'kick me out of the building' protocol?" I said, with a laugh.

Tony looked up at me and quirked his eyebrow. "You said it. Not me."

"Well, while you are correct Clint and I are definitely doing the thing that would set that protocol into effect. I only just got here. He sent me down to find you." I explained.

Tony stopped what he was doing. He tilted his head like he wasn't sure what to make of me. "Why would he do that?"

I shrugged. "Thought we might hit it off I guess."

Tony assessed me for a moment longer and went back to shuffling papers. "I don't know why he would think that. I'm highly abrasive."

"Oh, I don't know." I hummed. "Besides, I'm possessing infinite patience, Mr. Stark."

Tony laughed and shook his head. "You can cut the Mr. Stark stuff. I'm Tony or Sir."

I leaned against the door frame and ran my teeth over my bottom lip. "I'm sorry... sir." I teased.

"Nope. Changed my mind. Not sir. Just Tony." Tony said, quickly.

I broke down in laughter. "Tony it is."
