As soon as the word “romantic” exited Clint’s mouth and registered in Anna’s brain she cringed. She didn’t do romance movies. But then again, she didn’t do monopoly, or boyfriends, or actual relationships. “But romance. Romance? Ew. Romance!” She felt him shift closer to her and drape his arm over her. She rolled her eyes. Wow. Subtle. Sighing she maybe, just a little, melted into his side. She tried hard not to judge the movie just quite yet, but it soon became clear that it was a comedy as well. “Really? A romcom? You had to choose a romcom?” She turned (as much as she could without hurting her side anymore than was necessary) to Clint and one of her eyebrows shot upwards. She hadn’t realised Clint was such a softie.

Clint looked at Anna and away from the movie to respond “I would have gone for just romance but I had a feeling that you would prefer a romcom more, less romance more humour”. Clint grinned at Anna then looked back to the movie taking glances at those golden locks whenever there was a lull in the movie. Clint noticed Anna was silent through most of the movie now that it was about three quarters of the way through and whispered to her “are you enjoying the movie?”.

Looking past Clint, towards the TV, she smiled as she pulled the controller out of his hand. “I’ve always wanted to see Mission Impossible. The newest one.” She smiled at him. Now she thought about it, one of the actors looked awfully like Clint and that made her smile more. She started flicking though the movies, searching for the one she wanted.

Truth was, it was difficult to search for the movie with Clint sitting SO. DAMN. CLOSE. She was hyper-aware of his body heat and she dropped the controller to tug at the collar of his shirt, pulling him into a kiss. Without saying anything, and acting as if nothing happened, she let go and started scrolling though her options again. Finding the one she wanted, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, she was about to select it when the controller was no longer in her hands, but grasped in Clint’s, out of Anna’s reach. Not wanting to aggravate her side she didn’t rise to the bait but simply asked, “Is something wrong with Mission Impossible?”

“Is something wrong with mission impossible?” Clint repeated sarcastically raising a single eyebrow for emphasis. Clint then went to the filter engine on the TV and set it to romantic comedy. “Well seeing as how we are dating now I believe we should participate in something more romantic for our first time to watch a movie together” Clint explained as he clicked randomly on the first movie he saw which happened to be 500 days of summer. As the opening credits began Clint ever so subtly lifted his arm and draped it over Anna’s shoulder and shuffling closer to her.

anna-romanoff:

“I should be able to get it pretty quickly. I’m sure you’ll explain as we go.” The game seemed simple enough. Clint started the game off, rolling the dice and landing on the first train station on the board. Apparently that was a good thing because Clint cheered and ‘bought’ it with the paper play money. As the game went on, Anna picked up on the rules. She was used to having to pick things up quickly. She was losing but she was happy just relaxing and watching Clint battle it out with JARVIS. When it was proving difficult, they decided to gang up on the super AI.

Despite their fighting spirit and tactics, they lost. JARVIS ended up victorious and Anna could tell Clint was little miffed about it. “That was fun.” She smiled at Clint, gesturing with a finger for him to come forwards so she could plant a kiss on his lips. Leaning her forehead against his she hummed. This was nice. She liked this. “So, what now?” She’d looked at the clock earlier and noticed that it had taken just under two hours for JARVIS to kick their butts at monopoly.

Clint muttered to himself about cheating robots but catching what Anna asked quickly brightened his mood and distracted him from cheating robots. “I was thinking we could watch a movie” Clint suggested then walking over to the T.V. grabbed the remote on the nearby table before sitting back next to Anna.

Pressing the on button Clint flicked through the options on the T.V. before coming to the movie’s located on the hard drive section, with a click a long list of movie’s were displayed. Looking to Anna Clint leaned over giving her a soft kiss “Tony has quite the collection, any suggestions for what we would like to watch?” Clint asked and explained after breaking the kiss.

“Of course, sir. I would enjoy to play a game with you,” JARVIS replied. Anna smiled at Clint. She then opened the box and stared at all the little pieces. Trying not to hurt her side too much she attempted to shuffle up the headboard of the bed so she could be sitting to play. “How do you play?” She asked as she picked up one of the small plastic houses. “Shouldn’t we sit on the floor? The bed is too lumpy and shifty.” She commented at she unfolded the board and put it on the bed, inspecting it’s instability. She spotted a large old pizza box and pointed at it, suggesting they use it for under the board.

Clint got to setting up the game and Anna watched in a slight awe as he knew exactly what he was doing. Setting yellow and orange cards on the board. What looked liked play money went into a plastic ‘till’ like…thing. Anna turned back to the box, inspecting little metal objects inside, deciding that she liked the iron the most (it being the object that, if real, would be the most effective to bludgeon someone to death with).

Anna had to bite her tongue (figuratively) to stop herself from asking a hundred questions about the game. Clint would explain it to her eventually. She was just jumping the gun and being too excited. Pushing herself up into a more comfortable position and ignoring the pain in her side, she picked up the now emptied box and looked at it. “What’s with the whole ‘in case of emergencies’ thing?”

“That?” Clint said needlessly being caught up in counting out money and grabbing the car for himself and delegating the moneybags for Jarvis. Clint wasn’t paying much attention to what he was saying. Then after finishing his task he spoke “The game was a gift from a friend and they wrote in case of emergencies on the box as a joke like in case of a fire reach for your monopoly set” Clint finished his tale and handed Anna two die.

“Now would you like to hear the rules?” Clint asked rhetorically “each player has a turn where they roll the dice and move along the board according to the number they get from the dice, when you fall on a property you have the opportunity to buy it and when you land on a community chest space you get to pick a card” Clint paused making sure Anna understood his explanation then continued “I’ll explain any other spaces when we get to them, for now all you need to know is the idea is to get all the money and have your opponents be bankrupt”.

Clint paused this being the first time he had explained the rules of monopoly and he wanted to make sure he didn’t forget anything. Looking towards a speaker in the room Clint asked Jarvis “Jarvis shall I just roll for you when you want?” with a succinct “yes that is all I require” Jarvis indicated his readiness to begin the game. “So,” Clint began looking towards Anna momentarily distracted by the sight then gathering himself “are you ready to begin? any questions?”.

Anna smiled even wider when Clint leaned over her to give her a kiss. She must have said something right because he seemed pleased. It took a times running through the question in her brain before she realised what he was saying. She snickered at his child-like enthusiasm to play this ‘monopoly’ game. “This is my boyfriend, Clint.” Anna pretended like she was introducing him to some invisible person. “Yeah. I can be your girlfriend.”She smiled at him.

“So what’s this ‘Monopoly’ game? I think I’ve heard of it.” She smiled at him a little excited to play. Before he go off and grab the game though she caught his shoulder and pulled him down for another kiss. This one was longer and somehow sweet. When they pulled away from each other she rested her forehead against his. “I’m your girlfriend.” She smirked. Yeah, she was Clint’s girlfriend.

Clint was feeling happy after the kiss, it left a pleasant tingling on his lips that felt distinctly Anna. Clint replied to Anna’s statement with a grin whispering to her “and I’m your boyfriend”. after another quick peck to Anna’s lips Clint walked off to his cupboard and pulled out his old monopoly board game, It was old and the box had in bold letters on the cover in red ink “IN CASE OF EMERGENCIES” an old joke written down a few weeks ago.

Clint walked back over to the bed with an awaiting Anna and placed the box next to her “this is monopoly, a basic board game known to be one of the most common in the world” Clint began to explain “now generally two people isn’t enough to play a fun game but I have an ace up my sleeve, Jarvis?” Clint called out to the computer knowing Jarvis was just a call away. Sure enough a few seconds later “yes sir?” came from speakers in the room, “Jarvis would you like to play a game of monopoly with me and Ms Romanoff?” Clint asked while taking a seat on the bed next to Anna.

anna-romanoff:

“Board games?” She racked her brain. Nope. She’d never played a board game before. “Like the ones that families play together at stuff? For fun?” She eyed him curiously. She’s never really needed to know about ‘board games’ as an assassin. It’s not in the job description. “I’ve never really played a board game before. I’m good at card games though.” She looked at him sheepishly.

Anna noticed that Clint had finished with the bandages and she took one of Clint’s hands in her own. Her fingers curled in between his. Anna then realised that she and Clint were, as much as she could be, running from the law and all, dating. She was his girlfriend. She then wondered how many were called that before her. Frowning slightly at the thought, she tried to get rid of it. Anna shook her head and forced herself to smile. As she studied him, her smile became more genuine.

Thought were buzzing in her head and she spoke before she could filter what was coming out of her mouth. ”I like you. Really like you. More than I’ve ever like anyone in my entire life.” She sighed and continued, “Which isn’t really saying a lot. I guess, I’m pretty lucky. And I might need to get used to this but that doesn’t mean I won’t like getting used to this.”

Clint listened to Anna say she never played a board game before and almost leaped across the room then and there to retrieve his monopoly board game from inside his cupboard. Clint stopped though and thought on the sad life Anna had lead having no real family besides Natasha and sobered up a bit. Clint felt Anna’s hand wrap around his own and watched her smile. It seemed to Clint that the world seemed brighter watching her smile.

Then Anna seemed to confess her feelings and Clint listened as she finished off saying she would need to get use to this. Clint thought it was cute and leaned into to kiss Anna, drawing away from her Clint asked ”so can I call you my girlfriend?” a grin in place, Clint also asked in rapid succession “and would you like me to teach you the ways of monopoly?”.

Anna winced as Clint carefully undid her bandages and changed the dressings. “So. What are we going to do today? We can’t just laze around in bed. But we can’t go outside either.” She smiled at him. Anna winced yet again when she looked down to her bullet wound. Turns out she will just be lazing around today. The wound looked much worse now her head had cleared up and she’d gotten some well needed rest.

Taking the painkillers and gulping down the water from the bedside table, Anna watched as Clint delicately cleaned the wound again and started to wrap it up again. His fingers worked fast, and lightly. A smiled pulled at the corners of her lips as she watched him worry over her bullet wound. “I’m not made of china. I’m not going to crumble at the slightest touch, Clint.”

Clint looked away from the bandaging for a second to look at Anna and explain ”You’re just precious to me and I don’t want to see you in pain” Clint then gave a small smile at Anna and went back to work on the bandaging. As he began finishing up on the bandaging Clint thought of some things to do with the time they had together “I have thought of some idea’s” Clint Began “I am thinking we could watch some DVD’s or I do have some board games if we get desperate” Clint looked to Anna for her answer just as he finished bandaging.

Anna smiled at the conversation between Clint and the agent. When Clint curled up next to her she smirked at him. “For being shot, and being it agony. Yes.” She leaned in to kiss him, making sure not to let it become too fast. After a couple minutes she pulled away. “Have any more of those painkillers?” She winced as she shifted slightly on the bed.

I could get used to this too. She smiled at her own thought and let the feeling mull over her. She could definitely get used to this. She looked down at her side and noticed a little dribble of red coming though all the bandages. “And maybe getting new bandages as well?”

Anna leaned in to give a kiss and Clint happily received it, taking his time of course. At the mention of painkillers Clint got out of bed again and made his way to his desk where the pills were located. As he reached the pills Anna also asked for some more bandaging so Clint reached under his desk and pulled out a first Aid kit that he always had prepared.

Clint walked over to Anna and passed her the painkillers as he got a look at the slightly bloody bandages. “yeah I’ll change your bandages” Clint told Anna as he began to cautiously unwrap Anna to expose the wound.

“Not a gentleman? Oh deary me.” She smiled at him as he threw her pants on the floor. “We’ll have to work on your manners then.” She tugged his arm lightly, inviting him to lay down beside her on the bed. When he lay down next to her, she pushed up beside him, entangling their legs slightly but being weary of her wound. Once settled Anna felt the effect of the drugs start to hit her and she was soon in a deep sleep.

Upon waking up Anna noticed two things, someone was in the corridor outside Clint’s room and she was still slightly entangled with Clint. Unsure of what to do she shook Clint slightly, trying to wake him up. “Clint.” Her voice came out raspy and in a whisper. “Clint?” She tried shaking him again until he finally stirred.

Clint was awoken by someone calling his name and shaking him so he pushed his mind through the haze that comes after just being asleep. Looking next him he saw Anna looking at him and Clint gave a smile “well this is something I could get used to, waking up next to you” Clint said cheekily then noticing someone in the hallway Clint paused then moved to get out of bed.

Clint motioned for Anna to stay where she was “I’ll just see who it is” Clint explained. As he walked over to the door in his pyjamas Clint cracked the door open slightly to see a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent standing before him. “Agent Barton, Ms Anna Romanoff has been sighted near this area and I was ordered to check up on you by Director Fury” the agent explained in a monotone “well rest assured I will be spending most of my day off in bed Agent, I haven’t left the house since yesterday and have not seen Ms Romanoff” Clint replied to the agent “Now if you wouldn’t mind to leave me alone to my sleeping” Clint made shooing motions at the Agent until he left.

Clint walked back to bed and laid down back into position beside Anna “So, sleep well?” Clint asked stroking a loose strand of golden hair out of Anna’s face.

“No, Clint. I like you. I know I do. It’s just new for me and - and I’m afraid I’ll screw everything up. I’m afraid that S.H.I.E.L.D. will find me. I’m afraid that I’ll get attached to you and something will happen to you.” Anna lay back down to face the ceiling. Staring at the light she thought about what to say next. “I want us. I just need to learn. I’m ready for us to be a thing. I think.”

She turned her head to face him again. “Are you going to be a gentleman and help me with these pants or am I, poor little injured me, going to have to do it myself?” She smiled at him and genuinely as she could muster.

Listening to Anna Clint started to feel less hurt as he began to comprehend that there wasn’t a problem about Anna’s feelings for Clint, she was just new to this and Clint mentally slapped himself in the face. Clint listened to her with a spark of affection growing steadily in his eyes that was beginning to fade before.

At Anna’s request for pants removal again Clint looked to her with a grin on his face “I will help you in your time of need but I’ll have you know I am no gentleman”. Clint then reached over to Anna and proceeded to start tugging on Anna’s pants to take them off.

“I don’t know. If I weren’t injured I don’t even know where I would be. I didn’t know how to get into contact with you. Yeah, I know, the phone number, but what if it was somehow bugged. I wanted to see you in person and … I was going to visit.” Anna sighed. Her thoughts were all over the place. She didn’t know what to do or say.

“Ok. The truth is, I didn’t visit or call because I was scared. I think I’ve sorted through a few things and I understand everything better now but-” Anna exhaled a breath she didn’t realise she had been holding in “-but I’m still a little weary. This is all scary and new. Not bad but. What I’m trying to say is that I don’t know when or if I would have ever gotten back into contact with you if I hadn’t had been slightly desperate. And nothing screams desperate more than having a slight possible chance of dying.”

Clint listened as Anna seemed to unload all of what she was thinking at once. Clint realised she was still scared and unsure and this made his recently happy mood plummet. As Clint waited for her to finish he began to think how long it would be before they could even try at having a relationship.

When Anna finished Clint could understand her hesitation but on some level deep down he felt hurt. Sighing Clint began to comfort Anna and try to ease her fears “Anna I am glad you came to me for help and I’m glad we are together right now, even like this but-” Clint paused collecting his thoughts then continued “but if you are still unsure and don’t know whether or not you like me from desperation then I think you know yourself that you need more time to think this through”. Clint stopped talking and looked down from Anna’s face “I want you to know I’ll be here when you sort it all out and even if its from desperation like tonight come visit whenever you want”.

Clint listened to Anna and at her request moved in to lay beside her on the bed cracking another grin at her joke. When she commented on his pyjamas Clint defended his choice in sleeping apparel saying “hey I sleep for comfort and an old t shirt and some sweat pants is very comfy”. As Anna explained her preference for a more free style of pyjamas Clint asked her with a straight face “would you like me to help you get your pants off then?”.

“Hmmmm, undressing me when we’ve only technically had one date? Whatever happened to chivalry?” She crack a smile at him and shuffled closer to him. “Though, I’m obviously wounded. This damsel is in distress and she needs a knight in daggy old pyjamas to help her be comfortable.” She tugged on his shirt, pulling him up onto his side. Anna lifted her head up to give Clint a chaste kiss, still clinging tightly to his shirt.

“I actually do need help with the pants though,” she said seriously but chuckled after saying it. “If I weren’t injured…” She didn’t know how to finish that sentence. We’d already be naked? I’d take off both our pants? But hadn’t the whole reason she finally broke, took a chance and came here, was all because of the stupid bullet wound. Would I have ever come here if I hadn’t gotten injured? Anna frowned at her own thoughts.

Clint mentally tallied all the dates they had had in his head, excluding the times when they met either in a holding cell or Clint capturing Anna. The only “date” they had was at the lucky duck café when she told him she needed time. When Anna called Clint a knight in daggy old pyjamas he cracked another smile, he seemed to do that a lot around Anna Clint realised.

As Anna asked seriously for help in the removal of her pants Clint was about to help when she let her next sentence drift and went silent. It caused Clint’s concern to rise “If you weren’t injured?” Clint prompted Anna to continue “I’m here for you Anna, remember that” he offered hoping to ease whatever turmoil she had over-thought herself into.
