Fated Marks

The following morning I woke feeling someone, obviously Clint kissing my back and shoulders.

“Mh.” I moaned as I cracked an eye open and moved to my side.

“Morning.” Clint greeted with a smile on his face.

“Morning.” I greeted back as I nuzzled my face into his neck and gently placed a kiss making him chuckle.

“How’re you feeling?” He asked.

“Good, happy.” I said and I could feel that was exactly how he felt.

“That’s good.” He said moving down to kiss me. He pulled me closer and I could feel how ready he was for a repeat of last night. I got wet just thinking about it. I hooked my leg over my hip to open myself up for him. That was all Clint needed to thrust in. He moved us so I was on my back again and started thrusting in and out at a steady pace. “Fuck Hales, you feel so good.”

“Clint.” I moaned linking my legs behind him and rocking my hips to meet each of his thrusts making him hit deeper than before. I was a bit sore from before but damn he felt so good.

“Ah, I got you.” He said bending down and kissing me as he started moving faster.

“Ah.” I gasped in his mouth as he hit just the right spot.

“There it is.” He said with a smirk as he started hitting that spot repeatedly.

“Fuck.” I gasped as I tightly grasped his back.

“You close Hales?” Clint asked not easing up as I started clamping down on him.

“Ye-Ah Yup.” I said panting.

“Let go.” Clint said resting his forehead against mine.

“Not yet.” I panted.

“Baby let me make you feel good.” Clint said kissing my neck.

“Together.” I said.

“Okay.” He said smiling at me as he slightly lifted his hips before he started moving faster and harder than before.

“Clint!” I shouted.

“Hayley!” He shouted as we came together. Clint collapsed on me and my legs just kind of fell to the side.

“Shit, Hales. I got carried away. I’m sorry.” He said worried.

“You kidding me that was so good.” I said kissing his forehead trying to make him stop frowning.

“I wasn’t wearing a condom and I came inside you.” Clint said.

“It’s all right. I’m on the pill if that’s what you’re worried about.” I said. He lifted himself up to take a look at my face to see if I was telling the truth. “Been on it for a few years, since I moved to New York actually. Tess was pretty adamant about me being prepared in case I ever got past second.”

“Good to know.” He said pulling out and moving so I was lying on top of him.

“I was thinking…” I started.

“That’s never a good sign.” He said making me playfully swat his arm. “Kidding.”

“As I was saying, we have the quinjet and a few days left.” I said drawing patterns on his chest with my finger.

“What’d you have in mind?” Clint asked.

“You’re the one that was pretty adamant about not staying here the entire week.” I said.

“Changed my mind, let’s stay here forever.” He said.

“Calm down Peter Pan,” I said looking up at him. “What did you want to do?”

“I was thinking a road trip check out some of those places I had told you about, maybe go camping.” Clint said.

“Mh, that’s nice.” I said.

“Or we could just stay here, enjoy the sun, the beach, each other.” He said.

“Both are great options but there is the small matter of if we take the quinjet back Patchy the pirate is probably going to try and get us both back to work.” I said.

“Let me worry about that.” Clint said with a smirk.

“I’m in your very capable hands.” I said kissing him.

A Few Hours Later-

Clint came up with a plan pretty quickly. We ate breakfast and took a shower together where we didn’t really clean up as much as had more sex. I was not complaining and I had to admit Tess and Will were right when they said I was missing out. We made our way back to the hanger where the quinjet was stored and after pre flight checks we were on our way back.

“You want to continue our game of twenty questions?” Clint asked.

“Eh, I’d rather not. I almost broke you last time.” I said remembering his reaction to my slip up.

“You didn’t break me, just caught me by surprise.” Clint said.

“It didn’t look that way.” I said.

“Okay then what do you suggest we do?” Clint asked.

“I found this deck of cards?” I said.

“Strip Poker?” Clint said with a mischievious smirk on his face.

“I was going to say let’s play bull shit but that works.” I said.

“What the…” Clint said opening the deck.

“What?” I said.

“These are all Jokers.” He said. That made me freeze.

‘Are we there yet?’ I asked.

‘No we’re still a few hours away’ mom answered. “Why don’t you try playing some solitaire to pass the time? I saw a deck of cards in the glove compartment.”

“I guess it’s not like there’s any service here. Why are we driving there? A plane would have been faster.” I said.

“It would have but we need to stay under the radar after the last cluster fuck we left behind.” Hadrian said. “I should have gotten my own car.”

“Yeah you should have.” I mumbled.

“What did you say bitch?!” Hadrian growled.

“Enough! This is why we are driving. We need to do more normal family things, roadtrips are the closest thing the three of us get to a family vacation now shut up and enjoy the Grand Canyon.” Mom yelled.

“What’s so grand about it?” Hadrian grumbled.

“Just a bunch of stupid rocks.” I mumbled before reaching in the glove compartment. I shuffled around and finally found the deck of cards. I took them out and started shuffling the cards when I noticed they were all jokers and each card had a name written on them. “What the hell?”

“Give me back my deck!” Hadrian yelled from the back seat.

“It’s not a deck it’s just a bunch of jokers. Who are these people anyway? Yuri Udinov? Max…” I started.

“Give me my cards.” He said grabbing my hair and slamming my head against the window. “One day I’ll make one of these just for you.”

I took a look at the cards and they all had his hand writing and then there was one with a message.

Don’t think I’ve forgotten about you…

As if I didn’t need a reminder that he was watching every move I make now there’s this.

“Hales you listening to me?” Clint asked.

“Huh?” I said.

“Zoned out a bit there.” He said.

“Yeah sorry just thinking about some things I need to take care of before I leave.” I said.

“You’re cold.” He said taking my hand.

“Guess I got too used to the heat.” I said kissing his cheek before hugging him. There was no way I was going to let anyone get hurt because of me.

“What aren’t you saying?” Clint said.

“It’s not important right now. We’re on vacation, let’s enjoy it.” I said giving him a smile.

“Hayley, I don’t know what’s going on but I can feel how scared you are. Tell me what’s going on.” He insisted.

“No, There’s nothing going on. Just thought about something from before funny how shit from years ago still has a way affecting me so much huh?” I said.

“Yeah, funny.” He said not buying it.

“A very wise woman once told me that we don’t get a say in the cards we’re dealt only how we chose to play them. Life’s given me some pretty shitty cards but I have to say they I like the way they played out.” I said.

“You are?” Clint said confused.

“I mean I have a pretty unique skill set that most people my age won’t have until they’re at least in their forties if they start practicing now and even then they won’t be half as good.” I started.

“You’ve been spending way too much time with Stark.” Clint said.

“Maybe, but I’m independent and if it wasn’t for the hell I went through all those years I probably wouldn’t have met any of you and that makes everything worth it even if you all drive me crazy most of the time.” I said.

“Who’s the sappy one now?” Clint said.

“Still you.” I said kissing him.

“Hales?” He asked.

“Mh?” I said as I started kissing down his neck.

“Want to join the mile high club?” Clint asked with a smirk.

“I like the way your brain works.” I said moving to straddle his lap. I moved my hands down his chest to unzip his jeans while me moved his hand up the skirt of my white lace dress and moved my panties out of the way so he could touch me.

“Ah.” I moaned.

“So wet already.” Clint said.

“Shit, what are you doing to me?” I said thinking about how much had changed in just a day.

“Making you feel good.” Clint said rubbing him length along my slit.

“Tease.” I whine.

“We can’t have that now can we?” He said lining himself up with me and pulling me down his lengths.

“Clint!” I shouted surprised at how deep he’d gone and how good it felt.

“Fuck Hales, taking me so good.” He said rutting against me.

“Ah, feel so good.” I responded lifting my self up a bit before slamming down.

“Shit.” He groaned into my neck.

“Like that?” I said as I kept moving, getting moving more off him before slamming down on him.

“Yes, fuck. Ride me baby,” Clint moaned kissing me.

“Clint.” I moaned. “Fuck.”

“Ah Hales.” He said tightening his hold on my hip before thrusting up into me.

“Ah! Clint don’t stop please!” I begged.

“I got you.” He said continuing to hit that spot over and over again until I felt the coil in my stomach snap and wave after wave of pleasure continued to wash over me as Clint worked me through my orgasm. “Fuck Hayley!” He shouted as he came.

We clung to each other as we came down from out high. I could feel him softening up inside of me.

“That just keeps getting better and better.” I said making Clint laugh.

“Thank you, I try.” He said still a bit out of breath. “We should clean up.”

“Not yet, I like being close to you like this.” I said hugging him.

“I do too Hales.” He said kissing my forehead and putting an arm around my waist while the other one rubbed soothing circles on my scalp.

I must’ve dozed off a bit because when we finally moved apart the navigation system started beeping to tell us we were twenty minutes away from the Triskelion.

We quickly cleaned up and made ourselves look decent before buckling in for the landing. Clint taxied into the hanger and shut everything off. I got my phone and started hacking. I made it so the security cameras that could spot us played a loop. The elevator took a bit of extra hacking but I managed it. We got in and started heading down to the parking garage. Then the elevator stopped and the door opened. Steve, Natasha, and the last person I ever wanted to see again walked in.

“You’re back early.” Natasha said.

“Change of plans.” Clint said. “Adler.”

“Agent Barton.” Hadrian greeted.

“How was the beach?” Steve asked.

“Sunny.” I answered really wanting to get out of here as fast as I could. Why the hell was this stupid elevator taking so long?

“I heard we’re going to be working together. Welcome to the team.” Clint said. “I look forward to sparing with you sometime, been a while since I practiced my knife skills.”

“Looking forward to it but it’s going to have to wait until after get back.” Hadrian said.

“Another Mission already?” Steve asked.

“No I’m taking a few days off going to visit my kid sister in New York. It feesl like it’s been years since I’ve seen her.” Hadrian said and I could feel my heart beat out of my chest.

“Get some rest while you can, we’re not going to go easy on you.” Natasha said before looking over at me and giving me a concerned look.

“I will, thanks again.” He said getting off on the floor before the garage.

“Hayley you alright Doll?” Steve asked.

“Yeah, just jetlagged.” I said feeling dinner coming back up.

“You look sick.” Natasha said putting a hand on my forehead. “You’re cold.”

“Probably the change in weather. I just need a nap and I’ll be fine.” I said as the elevator dinged.

“Maybe you should see a doctor?” Steve suggested.

“Nope, I’m good. See you both later.” I said as we all walked out of the elevator. I saw Natasha and Clint have one of their silent conversations by just exchanging looks before Clint followed after me.

He put our things in the trunk and we were off.

“Okay talk.” Clint said.

“What’s there to talk about?” I said.

“Hayley.” He said sternly and I started feeling sick again.

“Clint pull over.” I said.

“No Hales we need to…” Clint started.

“Pull over!” I yelled and he did. I quickly unbuckled myself and opened the door as I started to hurl.

“Shit.” I heard Clint say.

“Uh, I feel gross.” I said.

“You okay?” Clint said.

“Yeah, I feel better now.” I said.

“Sure?” He asked.

“Yeah, just really need to shower and brush my teeth.” I said.

“We’re almost home.” He said rubbing my back.

“Kay.” I said.

“What did you have for lunch again?” Clint asked. “Might be food poisoning.” Or it could be the fact that I was in an enclosed space with my brother where he could have snapped my neck and announced he was going to be on the same STRIKE team as three of my soulmates where he almost literally has a gun pointed at their heads. Yeah that was probably it.

“Stuffed fish. It tasted fine though.” I said trying to ease his worrying.

“You look better.” He said.

“Maybe that’s why I was feeling off. Should be all good by tomorrow.” I said.

“You sure because we can always…” Clint started.

“Wait till next year? No I have less than twelve days to squeeze in as much quality soulmate time before I leave. I intend to make the most of it even if it does mean getting eaten alive by mosquitoes.” I said.

“It’s not summer yet, we should be good. I’d be more worried about bears.” Clint started.

“Do you want me to ditch you in the middle of nowhere?” I asked.

“Relax, I rented out a cabin by a lake. No bears, very quiet, almost serial killer quiet. Lots of good food places close by. I was thinking we head down early. Check out some of my top picks. Spend the night at the cabin and then drive back up to New York making a few stops along the way.” Clint said.

“Sounds like the perfect road trip.” I said.

“We’re here.” He said pulling up to his building.

“Home sweet home.” I said. We went up stairs and opened the door only to be tackled by an excited Lucky. “Hey buddy, miss us.”

“Woof!” He barked.

“Lucky off.” Clint said pulling him off of me. “When you’re around it’s like I don’t even exist.”

“Jealous?” I asked.

“Makes me wonder what it’s going to be like when we have kids.” Clint said suddenly freezing as he realized he said it out loud.

“That’s easy, you’ll be the favorite because you’ll go along with whatever they want and I’ll be right behind you cleaning up the mess.” I said surprised at how I answered that and how I actually liked the idea of one day having kids running around. Clint just stared at me with his mouth open. I think I caught him by surprise.

“I love you.” He said about to kiss me.

“You may want to hold off on that I need to you know.” I said reminding him.

“Right. I’ll fix us something to eat while you’re in the shower.” He said kissing my forehead before letting go. I walked into the bedroom and notice I had left the PJs from before we left on the bed. I picked those out and some underwear from my suitcase before showering.

Third Person’s POV-

Clint waited until he heard the shower turn on before he picked up his phone and dialed Natasha.

“How is she?” Natasha answered.

“In the shower. Threw up on the way here. Says she’s feeling better but I keep feeling anxiety from her Nat.” Clint said.

“I’m not getting anything, just the same as always. It got bad when we were in the elevator but since it’s the same as always. Steve said he felt the same thing.” Natasha said. “What are you doing right now?”

“Trying to make something for dinner. Forgot that I haven’t done any grocery shopping.” Clint said.

“Open the door.” Natasha said.

Clint was confused before going to open the front door.

“Dinner and chicken soup for Hayley.” Natasha said walking in and making herself at home.

“Food.” Clint cheered.

“Figured you’d be hungry.” Natasha said.

“And you wanted to check on Hayley.” Clint said giving his partner a smirk.

“Maybe.” She said. “How was the wedding?”

“It was good. Food’s good.” Clint started.

“You look… happy.” Natasha said.

“Yeah I am.” He said with a dopey smile.

“Wow.” Natasha said.

“Huh?” Clint said.

“You two…” She started.

“Went scuba diving.” Clint said as he saw the door open.

Hayley’s POV-

“I love the water pressure in your shower.” I said coming out of the room. “Hey Nat.”

“Hey.” She said.

“Nat brought dinner.” Clint said.

“Thanks Nat.” I said kissing her cheek.

“You look better.” She said putting a hand on my cheek.

“Yeah, It was probably something I ate.” I said.

“Maybe.” She said. “I brought you some soup, it should help settle your stomach.”

“Smells yummy.” I said. It was things like this that showed she cared. The soup wouldn’t do much for my stomach but it did cheer me up.

I ate a bit of the soup and after everyone was done eating we sat down and watched a movie. I was sitting in the middle while Clint had his arm around my shoulders and I was resting my head on his shoulder while Nat had her head in my lap and I combed my fingers through her hair. We were watching the Untouchables while Clint and Nat provided commentary about how all the gunfights would have actually turned out in real life. They both ended with the same comment.

“He’d be dead.” They said at the same time.

“It’s a movie, it’s for entertainment only.” I said.

“Dead.” They said making me laugh.

“As fun as this has been I have to go.” Natasha said.

“Didn’t realize how late it was.” I said holding in a yawn.

“Be careful and if you start to feel sick go to the hospital.” She said kissing my forehead.

“I’ll be fine, we’ll call you when we get to the cabin.” I said.

“Good. Get some sleep.” She said as she walked out.

“We have an early day tomorrow.” Clint said.

“Yeah, I’m pretty beat.” I said getting up and turning off the lamp.

“Doors and windows are closed come on.” He said leading me to the bedroom. I got under the covers and hugged Clint as I drifted off to sleep.

“You’re a useless brat…”

“Why didn’t mom just get rid of you?”

“Stop it hurts” I cried trying to pull my arm free but he just twisted it snapping my wrist.

“No one outlives they’re usefulness remember that bitch.”

“What a waste of space?!”

“Stop!” I screamed.

“If I ever see you again, I’m going to finish what I started!” He said stabbing a dagger into my stomach.

“AH!” I screamed.

Third Person’s POV-

“Mh stop.” Hayley mumbled as she started squirming in her sleep.

Clint cracked an eye when he felt something hit his side. He saw Hayley tossing and turning. The look of pain on her face was enough to fully wake him up.

“Hales?” Clint said hoping she’d wake up.

“Stop!” She started crying out loud.

“Hayley, wake up.” Clint said putting a hand on her shoulder and shaking. “Hayley!”

“AH!” She screamed sitting up with a hand over where her scar was.

“Hales, hey,” Clint said trying to get her to look at him but she flinched. He could feel how terrified she was. Hayley had tears running down her face and she was shaking.

“Baby, it’s okay. It’s me, you’re safe” Clint said turning on the lights and watched Hayley curl up into a ball, resting her head against her knees. “Hales, I need you to look up at me, Can you do that?”

Hayley didn’t move she just stayed like that panting like she couldn’t breathe. She wasn’t reacting to anything he said. Clint did the only this he could. He pulled her onto his lap and held her. Hayley whimpered a bit but didn’t push him away.

“You’re okay, you’re safe I promise.” Clint whispered over and over. Eventually Hayley’s breathing evened out and she was asleep again. Clint held onto her and kissed the top of her head. “You’re not okay Hales.”

Hayley’s POV- A Few Hours Later

I woke up in a really weird position. I was curled up in a ball and in Clint’s arm as he was sitting up asleep with his arms wrapped around me. That’s when it all came back to me. The dream waking up frozen in shock. That was going to be hard to explain.

I slowly moved Clint’s arms off of me and moved off his lap. He quickly rolled to his stomach so he was lying diagonally on the bed. I covered him with the blanket before going to the living room Lucky was asleep but as soon as he heard me He perked up.

“Sh, Clint’s still asleep Buddy.” I said.

I sat down on the couch and Lucky jumped up and cuddled against me. I turned on the TV and flipped through the channels until we landed on the news. I got up and made some coffee before going to sit back down. A few minutes later the bedroom door opened and a freaked out Clint ran out.

“Morning.” I said turning back to the news.

“Fuck Hayley.” He said moving to the couch and pulling me into a hug.

“You alright?” I asked.

“You’re asking me that? I should be asking you.” He said putting a hand on my cheek.

“I’m fine.” I said taking a sip of my coffee.

“Hayley you’re not fine, you woke up screaming and went catatonic.” Clint said.

“I did? Huh” I said playing dumb even though I know he wasn’t buying it.

“You don’t remember?” Clint asked giving me a look.

“It’s been a while since it happened. Could be stress or other stuff.” I said.

“This has happened before?” Clint said.

“Yeah, it’s been a while though. Used to freak Will out.” I said.

“What exactly were you dreaming about?” Clint said.

“Day I got this.” I said putting my hand over my scar. That made him frown.

“What exactly happened?” Clint asked.

“Not much to tell. It was the day we buried my mom. The service had just ended me and the spawn of Satan I got stuck with for older brother were standing there and I was doing what most orphan thirteen year olds do at their parent’s funeral, crying. He slapped me to get me to shut up. Said he wished I was dead and then stabbed me with a dagger. Told me I had twenty four hours to get out of town and if he ever found me I was dead, took the knife out and kicked me into our mom’s grave.” I said.

“What the hell Hayley? Why didn’t you tell anyone?” Clint asked.

“That wouldn’t have worked. He had a guy on the inside. Instant I went to the cops I was dead.” I said. “You know you’re the first person I ever tell any of this?”

“The more you tell me the more I wonder how you turned out so great.” He said.

“You’re taking this better than I expected. I was kind of expecting you to freak out again.” I said.

“If I ever see your brother I’m shooting an arrow into his eye socket.” Clint said hugging me.

“Yeah… I hope you never meet him.” I said thinking about how close he really is.

“You want to get a bit more sleep before heading out.” Clint asked.

“No, we’ll fall behind. It’s not the first time I go without sleep, I’ll live.” I said. “Though I am going to need coffee every few hours.”

“I can manage that.” He said kissing me.

I got dressed in a white and black striped t-shirt and black stretchy jeans with some strappy sandals.

When I came back Clint was already dressed and sipping his cup of coffee. “I forgot how strong you make this.”

“Got used to it. Tony can cook but he knows how to make coffee.” I said.

“It’s good for a hangover too.” Clint said.

Three Days Later-

To say I hadn’t been sleeping the past couple of nights would be an understatement. I’d doze off and wake up screaming. Clint being the saint he is would wake up and hold me until I fell asleep again. Of course it never lasted and I would wake up an hour later.

Which brings us to the last leg of our road trip…

“Why won’t you tell us his name?!” Clint yelled.

“Because you and everyone else would try and find him. It’s none of your business stay out of it!” I yelled.

“It’s bothering you so it is my business!” Clint yelled.

“No, it’s past business leave it alone!” I yelled.

“NO!” Clint yelled.

“Yes!” I yelled back.

“That’s it.” He said speeding up and pulling over. “We’re not going anywhere until we talk it out.”

“What’s there to talk about? You want to kill my older brother and I’m not letting you sink to his level so I’m not telling you end of discussion.” I said.

“Not the end. You’ve hardly slept in three days. I know because it’s been three days since I’ve woken up next to you. And you’re taking the pills again Hales? Since when?” Clint said.

“Since my anxiety is through the roof which is exactly what they’re for.” I said.

“Why? What aren’t you saying?” Clint asked.

“Nothing.” I said. I spill the beans Steve and Nat who are currently on a mission with Satan incarnate get shot or stabbed with whatever the hell Hadrian is using. And chances are he’s not working alone.

“Then why are you so nervous?” Clint said.

“Because you’re interrogating me!” I yelled.

“Because you’re lying!” Clint yelled.

“Pause.” I said.

“What?” Clint said.

“Pause. We need to put this conversation on hold.” I said.

“We need to talk about this, we can’t just ignore all this Hales.” Clint said.

“I know and we’re not. But this isn’t talking, it’s yelling and we’re both really sleep deprived and not thinking straight.” I said. “We pause, we get to that bed and breakfast and try to get some sleep.”

“And we talk about it tomorrow?” he said.

“We’re stopping by that light house for lunch right? No distractions we talk.” I said.

“Fine.” He said.

Now to just figure out what to say without screwing up one of the best things that’s happened to me in years.

The Next Day-

I didn’t get any sleep except this time I didn’t leave when I woke up. I stayed in bed holding onto Clint while I listened to his soft snores. He could tell I hadn’t slept at all but instead of saying anything he just held me. I didn’t deserve him.

We finally got up when we realized we had to get some breakfast before heading off. The closer we got to the dreaded Lighthouse the more nervous I felt. I knew Clint had probably felt it when he took my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

When we finally got there we set up the picnic blanket on the ground and sat down. We took a bite into what was supposed to be the best Hoagie in New Jersey before he finally said something.

“No matter what, I’m with you.” He said.

“I’m not telling you about him.” I said.

“After everything he’s done why are you still protecting him?” Clint said frustrated.

“You ever think that he’s not the one I’m protecting?” I retorted.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Clint said.

“You said I was the best person you knew, what if I wasn’t?” I said.

“Hales what could be so bad you can’t tell us?” Clint said.

“Let’s just leave it at it is that bad and the less you know the better. I’ve spent the past five years trying to move past that for a reason, why can’t you?” I asked.

“Because clearly there’s something from the past that’s bothering you. You woke up screaming and went catatonic.” Clint said.

“I know and I’m sorry I scared you…” I started.

“You scared the crap out of me Hayley but that doesn’t matter, I just want you to be okay.” Clint said.

“I am, I’m the happiest I’ve been in… well ever.” I said. “If it makes you feel any better I have an appointment with Kevin on Tuesday, I’ll talk to him about it and get his expert opinion.”

“I’d like it better if you talked to us but I’ll take what I can get.” He said taking another bite of his sandwich. “Is it just me or do these…”

“Taste off?” I asked. “Yeah, definitely not the best hoagie in New Jersey.”

“Coney Island is open now, want to drive over, grab a hot dog on the pier and maybe go on a few rides?” Clint suggested.

“Yes please.” I said putting the sandwich down. I picked a good day to wear a dress. It was around four in the afternoon when we got to Coney Island and the red flannel dress and boots was the perfect casual date outfit. It was my back up in case the date in DC ended up being more casual.

I had to moan as I bit into the hotdog making almost choke on his soda from laughing. It took me a minute to put two and two together.

“Really?” I said.

“I’m a guy, it’s a natural assumption.” Clint said.

“I don’t think I can eat this now.” I said. “Nah I’m still hungry.”

“I need a picture of you blushing, it’s adorable.” Clint said.

“Just remember I still have the ‘caw caw motherfucker’ video.” I said.

“Right.” He said taking even more pictures.

“Want to ride the cyclone?” I asked.

“Yes!” He cheered taking my hand.

We ended up getting on every single ride. The last one we got on was the Ferris wheel.

“This is my first time on one of these.” I said.

“You’re joking, everyone’s been on a Ferris wheel.” Clint said.

“Well I have now. Never really went to fairs as a kid. Got to go to Disney world once because my mom’s exboyfriend took, me, Rebekah and Kol as part of our Christmas gift.” I said.

“He end up being a step dad?” Clint asked.

“No he’s the one that my mom broke up with and I got back at her by giving her the silent treatment for a year.” I said.

“I’m guessing you two were close?” Clint asked.

“Closest thing to a dad I ever had.” I said.

“Huh, so you want to know what most people to at the top of these?” Clint asked.

“Don’t know.” I said with a smile.

“Normally it’s making out.” He said.

“Good thing I’m not afraid of heights then.” I said putting my hands behind Clint’s neck and pulling him into a kiss. We were so into each other that we didn’t even notice the ride moving until we heard one of the machine clearing their throats trying to get out attention.

We quickly got out and went back to the car.

“Ready to go back to reality?” Clint asked.

“I’ll be happy as long as the tower is still standing.” I said.

“I’m sure we would have heard something if Tony destroyed the place.” Clint said trying to reassure me.

“It’s the same guy who thought it’d be a good idea to install a microchip into the base of his spine.” I reminded him.

“Maybe you should be a bit concerned.” He said.

Traffic was just as bad as I remembered it’d be. It took us a bit over an hour before we got to the tower, which was thankfully still standing.

“Home sweet home.” I said getting out of the car.

“I missed this place.” Clint said getting out of the car and opening the trunk. We unloaded the car and got in the elevator. Clint kissed my cheek as he pulled me into a hug. I moved and gave him an open mouthed kiss, which he quickly responded to moving us so I was pressed against the wall. There he started kissing down my neck.

“Miss Adams, Agent Barton welcome back. Which floor would you like to…” Jarvis started.

“My floor ah!” I gasped as Clint sucked on just the right spot before pulling me up so I wrapped my legs around his waist. He slowly started kissing lower and lower before unbuttoning the first button of my dress, making his way to my breasts. The elevator doors opened and revealed my apartment. Clint walked in carrying me in, forgetting out suitcases. He bumped in the wall and held me up there as he started grinding his hips against mine.

“Ah, Clint!” I said.

“Need you Hales.” He said sucking on my neck. I was going to have a hickey tomorrow.

“Me too.” I said pulling him into a kiss as I pushed his leather jacket off his shoulders. Clint moved his hands up to my but and lifted me up as he carried me to my room. He kicked the door closed and walked over to the bed. He sat me down on the edge as he stood in between my legs.

“You have no idea, what you do to me.” He said leaning down to kiss me.

“I think I do.” I said palming his groin.

“Fuck!” He groaned into my neck as he started rocking his hips against my hand. He moved away and started slowly unbuttoning my dress as he groped my breast making me arch my back.

“Clint.” I moaned.

“Sh, I got you baby.” He said kissing the skin exposed with each undone button.

“Mh.” I said.

“Can’t believe you were wearing this the whole time.” He said referring to the matching black lacey bra and underwear.

“Thought we were going to fight, so I should be prepared for make up sex.” I said.

“Now I really wish we had fought.” He said kissing between my breasted.

“I don’t want to go slow.” I said sitting up a bit and unbuttoning Clint’s jeans. “I need you.”

“So do I baby.” He said pulling his pants down and taking off only my panties. He moved to stand between my legs. I was face to face with his erection. I couldn’t take my eyes off it and without thinking about it I leaned forward and licked off the drop of precum that was there. “Shit Hales I won’t last long if you do that.” Clint moved away and bent down to kiss me. “Rain check.” He said kissing me before moving me so I was on my back and he was standing in between my legs. He lined himself up and thrust in.

“Ah!” I gasped at how good it felt. Clint didn’t stay still for longer than a second before starting his hard and fast pace. It felt amazing. I pushed the heels of my boots so they were digging into his butt cheeks, making him push in depper.

“Fuck Hayley.” He groaned before bending down and kissing me as he continued pounding into me.

“Shit!” I said as he hit my pleasure point. I brought my legs up higher and rocked my hips faster matching his thrusts.

“Fuck yes baby just like that.” Clint said as his pace started faltering. He moved his hand between us and started rubbing my little nub. I felt the familiar tightness in my stomach and I knew I was close.

“Shit, Ah, Don’t stop please.” I said.

“I’ve got you.” Clint said bending one of my legs up so my knee was pressing against my shoulder, opening me up more hitting all the right spots each time.

“AH!” I shouted as I came but Clint kept going at it fucking me through my orgasm.

“Yes, yes Fuck!” Clint shouted as he came collapsing on me.

We stayed like that, enjoying the contact after such a high.

“I’ll say it again. That just keeps getting better.” I said.

“Yeah, I’m sorry I think I got a bit too rough.” He said.

“You didn’t do anything I didn’t want you to do. That was great, I’m gonna want an encore later.” I said making him laugh.

“You’re insatiable.” He said with a grin.

“Is that a bad thing?” I asked.

“No, just wasn’t expecting any of this. I was happy just to have alone time with you.” Clint said making me laugh. “What’s so funny?”

“I was freaking out because I didn’t think I was ready to complete the bond and Tess and Will got into my head about how this was actually part of the plan. Got to say, never been happier to be wrong.” I said. “I’m glad we completed the bond.”

“Thank you, for giving this a chance.” He said kissing me.

“Thanks for not running away screaming every time I told you something about my past.” I said kissing him.

“I’m not going anywhere. You’re stuck with me Hales.” Clint said pulling me into another kiss.

“Miss Adams, Mister Stark would like to know when you and Agent Barton would be joining him and Doctor Banner for dinner?” Jarvis said.

“Tell them we’re asleep.” I said.

“Sir would like me to remind you that you left your suitcases and Agent Barton’s jacket in the elevator ma’am.” Jarvis.

“So he knows we’re…” I started.

“I can not repeat the term sir used out of etiquette but he assumes.” Jarvis said making Clint and I laugh.

“What’s for dinner?” Clint asked.

“Sir has ordered pizza, including your preferred order.” Jarvis answered.

“Damn, New York pizza I can’t ever turn that down.” Clint said.

“We should go before he comes down here himself.” I said sitting up. “Jarvis tell him we’ll be up in a bit.”

“Yes ma’am.”

“I think you might have to carry me.” I said feeling my legs be a bit wobbly. Clint just let out a chuckle.

“I love you.” He said kissing me one last time before helping me up.
