Barton sat in his S.H.I.E.L.D. office, filling out paperwork trying to make his midnight deadline. He liked the silence that the building had at night, the only noise being the quiet thrum of the air conditioning. He dropped off the stack of papers outside Coulson's office with two minutes to spare. He walked out of S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, the moon high in the New York City sky. Deciding against going home to his own apartment, he took the shorter route to Stark Towers. JARVIS greeted him when he stepped into the elevator. He was surprised when he reached the Avenger's commons, that there was no one there. Usually Thor would be in the kitchen, raving about the miracle that is Poptarts, and the Captain would be trying, to no avail, to figure out how the internet works, and Tony and Banner would be in the lab. But now, everyone was out. But Nat, Nat was a different story. She came and went as she pleased, but she could usually be found in the gym or on the roof. The gym light was off, so he headed up to the roof. There she was, leaning on the railing looking out over the city. Typically they would chat about everything but work until the sun came up, but tonight, she was quiet. "NIghtmare?" He questioned. She nodded her head. "Wanna talk about it?" She glared at him. "Wanna throw stuff off the roof like Letterman used to do?" She cracked a smile. Half an hour later, the street far below was covered in watermelon and pudding. He crawled into bed, exhausted. There was a slight shift on the bed, and suddenly, he smelled the soft scents of coconut and citrus. "If you tell anyone we're cuddling I *will* kill you." He wrapped his arms around her. Their relationship wasn't like that of others, but what would you expect from two assassins? Whatever this turned into, it was bound to be exciting.
