Artemis and Orion
I do not own The Avengers in any way. I do not own anything to do with Greek mythology.
A/N- In one myth, it's said that Orion bet Artemis that she couldn't hit something. Orion was swimming. Artemis fired an arrow and it accidentally killed Orion. Artemis is said to have been in love with Orion, so she put him among the stars.
Alaina Riley, more commonly known as Mockingbird, was everything to Clint.
You know what they say; birds of a feather flock together.
A few days after returning from a mission with Natasha, Clint was needed back to the S.H.E.I.L.D. base.
"I need you and Agent Riley to report within 2 days", Fury told Clint over the phone.
Alaina, who was already in bed, was woken by Clint.
"Get up and pack", he said.
"Can't we do that later?" she asked, "I wanna snuggle".
Clint just chuckled and climbed into bed with her. He laced their fingers and brought them up to his lips. He kissed the back of her hand and murmured, "My Artemis".
Alaina brushed her lips against the back of Clint's hand and murmured, "My Orion".
Both Alaina and Clint sat in their nest.
They saw Fury walk in and start talking to Selvig.
"Agent Barton report. Riley, stay where you are", Fury said.
Clint laced their fingers, touched his lips to her hand, and said, "My Artemis".
"My Orion", she said back.
Neither of them knew this was going to their last time seeing each other for a while.
It would make them wish they had actually kissed.
