Rating: R
Pairing: Clint/Natasha
Author's Notes: This is fairly lighthearted in tone. I've been reading some dark, angsty things and while I love dark, angsty things, and may write something dark and angsty eventually, this is not that story. This asked (nicely) to be written first, so I did. A lot of the backstory is my headcanon. There's so much comic book canon, some of which contradicts itself, and some of which the movie has contradicted, so I felt free to deviate a bit too. :-) In the movie, I think Natasha wears her heart on her sleeve a bit – okay, maybe not her sleeve, maybe someplace a little more hidden, but the point is that she cares for Clint, she wasn't particularly subtle about it, and it doesn't take a Tony Stark to see it. :-) This story is for that Natasha. Many thanks toropo, who brings up Very Important Points such as "In the covers, or over the covers?" and jade_okelani, who always manages to talk me off the ledge. Lyrics by Angels & Airwaves.
( Summary: In the aftermath of Manhattan, Clint tries to remember what 'normal' was like, but Natasha's not making it easy. )
