Clint sighed as he walked into his and Natasha's apartment. He hated long, far away solo missions. But with Natasha on maternity leave and the fact that they were parents of two young children meant it was either solo missions or stuff with a rotating list of partners or the Avengers. He smiled at the dark silence of the apartment and softly put away his things before going in search of his family. He smiled at them all asleep in front of the TV and snapped a picture. He gently moved over to the easy chair and gently picked up his five year old daughter.
"Come on Alessandra" Clint said softly "Lets go to bed"
"Papa?" Alessandra asked "You home"
"Come on peach. Time for bed"
He gently carried her to her bed and tucked her in before moving back to the living room. Clint smiled at Natasha asleep on the couch and their seven week old son asleep in the cradle next to her. He bent down and gently kissed Natasha before sitting next to her.
"Tash" Clint said softly "Wake up honey"
"Clint?" Tasha asked softly "Your home"
"I am. Found you and kids passed out here"
"Movie night. Aly feel asleep fifteen minuets in and this little boy has been asleep for the last hour"
"Dominic being fussy?"
"Ear infection. He's not been sleeping well."
"Well. How about I put this little man down. You go to bed and I will be up with him tonight"
"You just got home from a three week mission Clint"
"Exactly. I got this. You need sleep"
"Love you"
"Love you more"
Clint smiled and kissed Natasha before gently helping her off the couch and lifting the little boy out of the cradle. He followed his wife to the bed room and laid his son down in the bassinet before watched Natasha snuggle into bed.
"I'm going to shower. You go to sleep" Clint said softly "Anything I need to know about Dom?"
"He might want a bottle if he wakes up and I've been having to rock him or walk him around to get him back to sleep"
"Thanks. Go to sleep Tash. I got this"
Natasha smiled and feel asleep as soon as she put her head on the pillow.
