Roof meeting:
she lived next door for as long as he could remember he never met her not really but he knew she was there he'd seen her on more than one occasion sitting on her roof reading and sometimes she would sit right outside her window on the out cropping of a ledge that butted right against his room and the ledge outside it she seemed to live in her own world but he caught her more than once watching him curiously from her perch at the edge of her roof while he practiced his archery she became this sort of constant in his life he enjoyed his silent audience and just so she wouldn't get tired of watching he would change his style every once in awhile shooting multiple arrows or doing a back flip off his fence shooting the target mid way down and then landing on his feet she never said a word but he knew that his silent redheaded fan enjoyed every single shot because of the way she would shift closer to the edge of her roof looking over they learned about each other without uttering a single word for the longest time it was all they needed that was up until the day his father took his alcohol induced anger to far Clint's life was never the same after that day and his silent watcher knew it. she saw it all that day she knew nothing could be the same after that and thats only what she saw from her roof top watch. that day was just like any other they went to school and came home she took her homework to the roof like usual and watched him shoot this was the routine that they fell into and they both liked the constant presence of security she finished her Russian history essay and watched as he made shot after shot right into the center of the bulls-eye when all of a sudden a car came barreling into the drive at his house and she saw him go rigid and all at once she noticed fear in his stance he dropped the bow when the door slammed some were inside the house her fearless archer ran inside and she heard screaming and yelling from the house then what she hadn't wanted to hear pierced their neighborhood a boys howl of pain and then a crash from inside she knew then that she needed to do something she pulled out her phone and punched the dial and the phone rang then someone picked up and she was shaking the voice on the other end said "hello 911 whats your emergency." a shudder ran through her and she spoke "hi um somethings happening at my neighbors house its 626 ultron road please hurry it sounds bad." the voice replied "alright the police are couple blocks away would you like me to stay on the line till they get there.." her breath catches "please..." the person on the other end tries to calm her down "whats your name miss and how old are you." she sniffles back tears for the boy she never really met "I'm... Tasha...Natasha... i'm... fifteen..theres a boy he..." sobs broke through her and the man on the other end hushed her softly "hey hey there tasha is it okay if I call you tasha." she nodded and breathed in "yeah yeah most people do." the man on the other end smiled she could hear it in his voice "well tasha the police are almost there I can here them through the phone can you see them." she wipes her eyes "yeah yeah I see them." the man sighed softly "good good are you okay tasha." she nods "yeah i'm okay now." the man took in a breath "thats good tasha I gotta hang up now okay." she watched the blue and red lights flash "okay." she hung up and dropped her hand the phone slipping from her fingers when she sees her brave archer being carried out by and man in a suit she saw blood running down the side of his head and and his right arm wrapped in gauze the man took him straight to an ambulance and laid him on the waiting stretcher she saw a man being dragged out of the house yelling bloody murder and she knew instantly he was drunk she looked back to the ambulance and saw a women with soft brown hair climb in by her archer and brush a hand through his hair she could see her tears at that point she had to know she had to so she jumped down to her window ledge and then to the ground and went running to the ambulance as the doors shut she caught the eyes of the women his mother and froze the man in the suit approached her cautiously "hey there whoa." she looked up at the man with tears in her eyes he took her over to the sidewalk and sat down with her he smiled softly "hey there you okay sweetheart whats your name." she sighed and shivered "I'm Natasha is the boy gonna be okay."the man called to one of of the uniformed officers "hey you give me your jacket." the officer handed over his police issue jacket and the man in the suit draped it over her shoulders he rubbed her back "hi there Natasha my names detective colson but you can call me Phil if you like."she nodded "is he gonna be okay." is all she said though detective colson looked a little sad but smiled "yeah he'll be okay probably wont be able to shoot for a while his arm was injured pretty bad." she breathed a sigh of relief and he saw her relax he smiled "you know him don't you." she shakes her head "not really i've never actually talked to him but i've seen him alot." colson tilts his head "then why..."then it clicked "your the one that dialed 911 weren't you." she nodded looking at her hands colson nodds "okay so Natasha you want to tell me what happened." she picked at her nails and looked up at colson "i came home from school and like I always do and did my homework..." he smiled interrupting her "and do you usually do homework on your roof." her eyes widened and she smiled "yeah I think better up there and I like to watch him shoot he's good." colson chuckles "oh I see clints gone and got himself a fan let me guess you take gymnastics at avengers academy don't you." she smiled "yeah I did how did you know." he smiles "well Natasha there is only one other person I ever met that can do what you did when you came off that roof just a few minutes ago and well your a lot like her..." he trails off looking over her head she heard the soft steps of someone behind her she turned and looked over at what he was looking at she squeaked "o my gosh may!" she stood up and hugged the dark haired detective who squeezed her back "i heard it on the scanner tasha are you okay." she nodded at colson "thank you for watching out for my niece Phil." he nodded "not a problem may I should really be thanking her she basically saved my god-son." Natasha looked over at him "wait you know him." colson nodded "would you like to ride with me to meet the people you saved." Natasha looked at may who smiled and nodded then looked back at colson "okay yeah." he guided her to his car and opened the passenger door and she got in he closed the door and looked back at may who smiled "you take care of her Phil I'll meet you two there after I process Barton." he nodded walking to the other side of the car he got in and the drove to the hospital when they got there colson went to the reception desk "excuse me we're here for Clint Barton." the women behind the desk looked up from her computer "are you family." colson grabbed his badge "yeah I'm his god father." the receptionist eyes widened "okay sir room 56 down the hall to the left." he herded Natasha to the room and knocked on the wall "hey Laura how is he." colson stepped into the room and the women sighed "phil thank god it was you that came." laura hugged him and he cleared his throat "laura I brought someone who would like to meet you and clint." he waved natasha into the room "laura this is the girl who called it in she saved him." laura looked at her and smiled pulling her into a hug "thank you so much for what you did." natasha smiled softly "is he gonna be okay." laura nodded but before she could speak a voice came from behind the curtain "ma is that colson." laura smiled and pulled colson around the curtain "yeah my little hawk it is." natasha heard a groan from the curtain "mom how many times have I told you not to call me that." his mom laughed "okay brave strong hawkeye whatever you say." colson laughed "hey boy I brought someone that you are gonna want to meet." clints smile could be heard in his voice "hey colson, so who'd you bring?" colson grins "well boy lets just say its your guardian angel." colson holds out a hand to Natasha and she walks towards him into clints line of sight he stares shocked "its you." she nods taking in the full extent of his injuries and he sits up "thank you." she smiles her eyes glistening and she speaks to him for the first time"i'm happy your okay." she steps forward slightly realizing he is a lot cuter in person he smiles thinking the same thing about her "so my silent audience turns into my savior I dont know how i'm ever gonna repay you."the to adults leave the room clint watches them out of the corner of his eye but focus back on his redheaded protector she shifts slightly and listens for the adults outside the room and hops onto the bed lightly and gracefully "that was a fool move you know bulls-eye running in like that." he smiles knowingly "well you gotta face your fears or they will eat you alive I figure." she lifts an eyebrow "yeah but you could have been killed." she eyes the stitches on his head and his smile fades and he whispers "yeah I know thank you I mean it really thanks." she scoots closer to him laying a hand on his leg over the blanket "you want to tell me what happened after you went inside." his breath caught in his throat and a tear slid down his cheek he shook his head she nods in understanding "i get it really I do trust me." he seemed to relax when the topic shifted slightly so she pushed it farther off "so I almost forgot to ask whats your name?" she had heard colson say it but it seemed right to ask he smiled softly and said "my names Clint, Clint Barton but the people at school call me hawkeye." she's heard that name around school a lot hawkeye was a legend the kid that never missed his target this was him she smiled "well I'm Natasha you can call me Nat or Tasha/ some people call me widow/ black widow." he smiled "so what do you do at school nat." she smiled deeper "I'm in gymnastics and ballet." he nods "sweet I have archery and gymnastics." she giggles softly and he frowns "hey don't laugh how else do you think I did that sick mid flip shot if anything its more like parcour than gymnastics." she laughs "you know that was actually really cool but you do know that the ballet class doubles as self-defense right." clint nods "yeah I did so if you teach me what you know i'll train you to shoot since I kind of cant right now."he raises his arm she nods "I'd like that so do you know when your getting out of here." he smiles "i have to stay over night because of my head but should be home tomorrow and back to school the day after you can drop by tomorrow though my mom wont mind." she smiles "yeah okay I can bring you your homework and we could study if you want." he nodded and yawned "yeah thats a great idea." she nodded "i'll let you rest, see you tomorrow." she hopped silently to the floor and was about to walk out when he grabbed her wrist and spoke softly "hey can you stay til I fall asleep please." she saw fear in his eyes and knew why he wanted her to stay and she felt better knowing he was there anyway so without much thought she grabbed a chair and sat beside the bed silently he let go of her hand and laid down careful not to bump his arm and he relaxed slowly falling asleep she watched him to make sure he slept okay before she stood up and walked out, when she walked out of the room she saw the adults talking and her aunt was there she closed the door softly and they looked over she nodded "he's asleep, he asked if I could get his homework for him tomorrow and I said I would." his mom smiled "thank you so much sweetheart im glad you two met." Natasha nodded and may walked up to her "tasha you ready to go." she smiled "yeah." when the two left colson and Laura walked back into the room and watched clint sleep. in his sleep he tossed and turned softly dreaming they watched as his expression changed and he muttered softly "widow look out behind you, Nat." he shifted again and colson grabbed his shoulders "clint wake up its okay its just a dream." clints eyes shot open and he squirmed calling out "nat." colson sat in front of him "clint shes okay her aunt took her home." clint calmed down and sat up against his pillow he stared straight ahead bringing his knees to his chest he sighed "it was so real I..i." colson nodded "clint I know I used to get them all the time during big cases and such it'll be okay." clint hugged colson "thank you for finding her colson." phil laid a hand on the boys shoulder "she tried to catch you in the ambulance but didn't get there fast enough." clints eyes widened "for real?" phil laughed "yeah boy she was really worried about you tell me something how do you make friends with someone you've never talked to."clint smiled "its easy really if you don't talk you cant make each other angry. just being in someones life like we where for each other was enough it was like a safety net we learned who one another was through what we liked to do not what we said to each other it was easy." Phil smiled "seems like it also created a connection not verbal but physical and emotional maybe even deeper you two care about each other more than most people that have been friends for years that talk everyday."
