There's that natural feeling of loss that comes every time the fullness of his body leaves hers. Then he's back and wrapped around her and it's a different kind of wonderful, even if they're both sticky, sweaty messes. She's fully exhausted as well. Nothing feels much better than laying there in his arms, listening to the sound of him breathing and the faint echo of the apartment settling around them.
When he rolls up and moves them around, she slides her body around and through his as if they've been doing this for a lifetime. It's always so easy and natural. She plucks at a few stray hairs that stick to his forehead awkwardly before he speaks. When he does she pauses and looks him deeply in the eyes.
A small smile curls at the corner of her lips. "You know, I've been thinking that for a while. I didn't want to push you though. I know how much you like your freedom. I didn't... I didn't want to trap you, or tie you to me again. You're the only person I can be like this with." She wonders if she can figure out how to work with him sleeping with other people. Maybe if it's only with a few guys, since she knows he has certain needs.
"Yeah? You wanna?" Clint asks. He's surprised. They've tried a few times before and it never works out because one of them gets jealous or something. Natasha still needs to do her job, and Clint didn't always appreciate the methods she used. But it's been so long now, and they've denied themselves enough. He doesn't want to keep waiting. Natasha's job is her job, and Clint understands now that even though she might use her body to get the information she needs, she doesn't love any of them, not like she loves him.
He gathers Nat up in his arms and presses a sloppy, sated kiss to her cheek. "Let's do it then. I think as long as we can have like, not rules, but understandings, we'll be good, you know? We love each other, we can figure it out."
She laughs softly at his kiss, running her fingers up and down his back. She loves the feel of him pressed up tight and comforting against her body. There's no one else that feels exactly like this, no one that allows her the peace and ability to be herself in every way.
With Clint, Natasha knows that he has seen her at her worst and still loves her. There's nothing he doesn't know about her. He's seen all sides, and she can be completely herself with him. No one else in her life even comes close. How could she not want to be with him.
"You know I love you, and being with you is easy. I think this time we can do it. You know I always end up aching if I'm not with you eventually." There's a small bubble of happiness that wiggles its way through her, even if it's cautious. She really wants this. She needs this, needs him. Smiling she kisses him full and long, with a happy sigh. "I'll be the best damn girlfriend you've ever had this time around. I swear."
"Tash, babe, it's not all on you. I was stupid jealous, even about your work assignments. I was jealous and selfish and kinda shitty. I'm just glad we stayed friends, and we can try again now." He doesn't like Natasha blaming herself for anything. They'd both fucked up with each other, but they can do better now.
He kisses her back, drawing her on top of himself and holding her gently. "We need to shower. You make a mess of me," he teases. He's certainly not complaining. He likes seeing how much he can turn her on. He's pretty sure they're done for the night, but they can still cuddle and hang out.
His sudden admission of jealousy makes her laugh and shake her head. Once pulled on top of him, she folds her hands across his chest, pillowing her chin and looks him in the eyes. "Wait, so all those fights we had about my work. That was because you were jealous of the guys? Clint... I was jealous of the guys and girls. I hated thinking that I can't be enough for you. I always hated that there was the one thing that the guys can give you that I can't." She turns her head a little and looks away.
There's still that feeling deep in her gut that no matter how much she loves him, she'll never be enough. They'd only been talking about a threesome not that long ago. Not that she wouldn't still do it if it was something he really wanted, but she hated the thought of someone fucking him, filling him like he filled her-- there was such an intimate connection when he did that. It made her feel loved in a way she could never explain, and she always got jealous thinking he was feeling that from someone. She knew she could do her best to give it to him, but it would never be exactly the same.
All she wanted was to be in his arms for the night. Yes, they needed to shower and change the sheets, but she wanted to get this all out in to the air first. Moving her arm, she kissed his chest. "I love you more than I have ever thought I could love another person Clint. It's hard ... to think about anyone else." She shrugged. I don't want to be with anyone but you."
"Tash, babe, you are enough for me. I just wanted to give you your freedom and shit. You've always been enough," Clint insists. "And that's the thing about being bi. you get to decide who to settle down with. And I choose you, for the record." He/'s not sure why she didn't know that before. Nat's always been it for him, but he'd obviously been with others when he thought she didn't want him. "Besides, you can give me plenty that a guy can't."
He leans in to kiss her, just to seal the deal and convince her that he definitely wants her, and then gives her a little squeeze. "So now that we're gonna get married and have a hundred kids, let's take a shower and clean these sheets. Didn't know you were a squirter before," he teases.
"I don't want freedom when I'm with you. I never needed it with you. You were always it for me." She feels guilty about never being able to let go enough to communicate with him all that she needed. With anyone else she needed that sense of not being brought to heel, not being hemmed in. It was always different with Clint. She knew that his love was a freedom in and of itself. There was a small obsession in the way she felt about having him to herself and that's why it was always so hard for her to let him be free. He was hers, and she knew that.
Now that it was true, she was going to hold on, and make sure that they never let go of one another again. A smile crept into their kiss and she squeezed his sides. "You are such a jerk. Letting me waste all those years with other idiots, when I could have had you." She teases, tapping his nose with her finger and kissing him a few more times to make sure he knows that she's joking with him. "...and I can't help it if you make me wet like this. You're really fucking good at what you do." There's one more kiss before she slides off of him with a groan.
It sucks to lose the feel of his body, but a shower is welcomed. She heads towards his bathroom, hips swaying as she goes to grab a couple towels and turn the water on. "Are you sure about a hundred kids? That's a lot of adopting to do..."
When Natasha gets out of the bed, Clint strips the sheets and throws them into his washer. Next time - likely later today - they should put down a towel. It's been long enough since they'd last been together that he'd forgotten how wet she gets. Especially since the last few times had been quick, brief meetings where they'd just been together to get off. This time, he'd gotten to spend his time on her, really make her come hard, more than once. He's kind of proud of the mess they'd made.
Once he puts the washer on he joins Natasha in the shower, stepping up behind her. "Maybe only fifty kids. A hundred does seem excessive."
Listening to Clint be domestic in the other room, Nat smiles. She had planned on helping out when they got out of the shower, but since he's already doing it she doesn't bother. She'll do it next time. Now that they're dating, she knows that they'll be spending a lot more time together. At least she hopes they do. She's spent far too much time on her own, and Nat's ready to settle in with him, to really try and make this work.
There's a laugh when he wanders in, all rumpled and sexy. She turns in his arms and slides hers around him so that she can kiss him under the spray. "We'd have our own little army. It would be terrifying." Reaching up, she helps him get his hair completely wet, running her fingers through it as she does. This kind of simple closeness is wonderful too.
[ ooc: gonna just respond to this one since I'm sure we'll have more threads by the end of the week! ]
"I mean yeah, you're gonna be their mom. They'll all be able to kick my ass by the time they're two," Clint jokes, leaning in to kiss her. He's not going to let himself get carried away this time, they've already gotten off enough for one night. That's not to say they won't be back at it in the morning though...
He reaches for the soap and starts to wash her, making sure to remember to use the stuff she'd left here last. "And they'll be able to shoot a bow like no one's business."
"You're so wonderful, how could I have made it through all this without you." She laughs at the thought of all those little monsters running around, or even at the thought of one or two. The fact that she can't have kids has never given her thoughts of them to be honest. Maybe adoption wouldn't be horrible in a few ten or twenty years down he road with Clint.
"They'd be the best trained kids around. Our kids will all be secret underground ninjas able to kick the ass of anyone who tries to take advantage of them, and the girls will not be dating until they are thirty, at least." She laughs and smacks Clint's ass playfully, nudging him with her hip out of the water so she can rinse off and slide out of he shower to grab a towel.
“Yeah, but like, not right away. I’m not done with the whole Avenger thing yet, and I don’t think you are either.” There’s a reason none of them have children, and that most of them are single. Clint’s been married before, but things with Bobbi had been great at first, but they’d quickly deteriorated. Clint’s sure that it’s his fault. He’s going to be better this time, with Natasha.
He follows her out of the shower and turns it off behind him, then towels himself off quickly. He drapes the towel over his shoulders and doesn’t bother to cover up. He’s got nothing to be ashamed of, he knows, so why bother?
“Are you hungry?” Clint could use a coffee, at the very least.
It takes a few seconds longer to dry off due to things like boobs and longer hair. Nat's towel ends up in a wrap around her head for the time being, the rest of her naked. She laughs at his suggestion that they might have thought to start on their brood now. "I think we can safely assume that kids are a ways off. If and when we decide to adopt, I want a safe and stable environment for them." There hadn't really even been any long term relationships beyond Clint in Natasha's life, and even they had their roadblocks, but she had a feeling this time would be different.
They were getting better at communicating and if they both were serious about committing, then it was possible. Dumping her hair out of the towel, she speaks upside down. "Hell yes. I could eat a cow. You gave me a nice workout tonight." She comes up and leans over to kiss his cheek, moving over to the drawer she kept a few essentials and had for years. It made her wonder if she'd end up leaving more of her stuff here now that they were an item. Maybe.
With that decision made, Clint calls his favourite local pizza shop and places an order. Natasha can eat with the best of them, but he makes sure to get her a salad as well, just in case she wants something resembling a vegetable in her meal. Once he finishes, he realises that he'll need to at least put pants on to answer the door, and he pouts over at Natasha, his girlfriend.
"Why is it culturally frowned upon to answer the door naked for deliveries?" he asks, coming over to lie back down on the bed, arms behind his head. "Like, I just want to pay for my pizza and not put on pants. Is that too much to ask for?"
There's laughter at his question, and she rolls over on top of him naked, not because she wants anything, but because it feels nice to lay there against him skin to skin like that. It's a comforting feeling. It's far better than anything relaxation technique or medication she could take.
"You could just put on some boxers, or I could just put on some boxers. I don't mind. I like you naked and wandering around. I think we should always wander around naked at home. It can be a new rule." She giggled a little, a sign that she indeed was feeling giddy over the fact that she was dating and could make up stupid rules for things like that with Clint again, except this time was different. Obviously.
"I'm definitely a fan of that rule," Clint agrees. "But I'll get the door, no big." He draws Natasha in for a quick kiss, liking that he can do this whenever he wants now. He hadn't thought that Nat wanted this, but now that he knows she does, he thinks that they'll do very well together. It's been a long time coming, after all.
"Better warn everyone not to just drop in though, unless they wanna drop trou too." The image is hilarious. He can't imagine Cap walking in and immediately taking off his clothes.
"You're too good for me." There's a tiny part of her that still means it, but she's working on that part of herself. Natasha feels comfortable enough about herself with Clint to allow this, allow him to love her. She never thought she deserved it after everything she did, but he sees every bit of her and still finds her beautiful inside and out. If there's anyone she can trust with this, it's him.
This is right. It's how life should be. Reluctantly, she lets him go with a laugh. "No, no one else is showing up here naked. I do not want any of the other Avengers naked. Some of them might like it too much, and try to take advantage. I mean, Thor or Tony, you never know with them." She sat up a little and propped herself against a pillow as she watched Clint throw on the basics so he could answer the door.
"No such thing as too good for you, babe," Clint replies. There are still many secrets between them, but Clint doesn't think that the secrets Natasha is keeping will change his mind about her. She can keep those secrets; he doesn't need to know everything.
Besides, it's not like he doesn't have red in his ledger. They both do.
"You don't wanna see Thor naked? Steve? Bruce?" He teases. "Hey, we don't have many women avengers. Maybe we gotta fix that."
"Bring that pizza back here so I can kiss that mouth of yours again. I'm so fucking in love with you Clint Barton. I hope you know that. I'm no where near good enough, but I'm never going to give you up. I'll rick roll all over your gorgeous ass." She laughs from the bed, sheets pooling at her waist happy to wait naked in bed for him as he retrieves their dinner.
They might both have red in their ledger, but she'll always think the best of him because he saved her.
When he wanders back in she's grinning a little like an idiot, happy about life and being in the bed of the man she knows she loves. "Hmm, well, I imagine Thor's nice. You did say he was worth doing. I've seen most of Steve, and everyone has seen Banner. I mean, there's been a few times when he's come down from being hulk and he doesn't always come out with pants that fit."
Once she's got a slice in her hands, she plucks at the pepperoni, eating it first. "Nope. Sorry. I'm the only woman you get to see. Me. That's it."
Settling in next to Natasha, Clint grabs his own slice of pizza. He shrugs at her, since he'd been the one to suggest being exclusive in the first place. He certainly doesn't mind her being the only one to see her naked. "You know, I never stopped loving you right? Even when you broke it off and dated Daredevil of all people. I still loved you." It might be a bit too honest for the tone right now, but it's the truth. Clint's always been the kind of guy to fall in love quickly, and hard.
"Why now, though? I'm not mad about it or anything, but why is now the time?" He's very curious. It's not like Natasha doesn't have other options, better options even.
Leaning against him as she eats, she tips her head up and smiles with a small sigh. "I never stopped loving you either. I know that I dated a few people off and on along with work and things, but they were never you and in the end the other people fell in love with people who weren't me. I wasn't meant to be with them." Setting down her slice in the box, she turns to face Clint completely.
"You were the first man I really and truly fell in love with, and even though I've had my mind wiped several times, I keep coming back and you always return, our memories always come back and what's in my heart never goes away. I feel safer with you than with anyone else. You've always been on my side, and now is the time because I ..." She pauses and looks down, licking over her lip, trying not to feel all the things she has running through her mind, because it's a lot.
".. because I realized that I'm allowed to love, to really love and be loved. I am allowed this. I am allowed to be happy, and when you said you actually wanted to settle with me Clint, that you still wanted this, how could I ever say no? You're it for me. You always have been. I've screwed it up enough, and I'm not going to again. Can you forgive me?" She blows out her fear, because in her opinion, there's no one better for her than Clint. She doesn't actually have Matt, and even if she did, he's never been a better choice, and neither was James. Clint was the first, and largest love in her heart.
"You know you can always have me, Tasha. We got a lot of history, sure, but none of that matters now." It doesn't matter that she'd broken his heart; he's come to terms with that. He doesn't think she do it again, not with how far they've come together. Before, Natasha had just been a pretty face, but then Clint got to know her. They have such a deep friendship now, they know each other inside and out, and they know enough not to hurt each other again.
Natasha isn't the only one that's dated other people. Clint's dating history is longer than anyone else's that he knows, besides maybe Thor. None of them had been right either.
Clint kisses Natasha's forehead and finishes up his pizza. Today's been a good day, and he's gonna take it.
Today has been a win for sure, and she knows that their future is only going to get better from here. Nothing else really does matter, and Natasha is over the moon about her and Clint finally settling things together. It's been what she's wanted for quite some time now, and it all fell into the right place at the right time.
Curling up with him, she tucks her head against his side and closes her eyes. It's been a busy evening, and they can enjoy themselves later tomorrow. For now, she needs sleep.
[ooc: Good place to finish? Also, any ideas about what you want to do with them after this? I'm working through my externship right now, so I'm not going to be around on many of the memes, but if you want me on one, please feel free to toss me a link? This is a psl I really want to keep. It's one of my favs. ]
