Date? No date? Read to find out ;-) and maybe some Hulk/Darcy drama, since I wants it :')

Chapter 2

"He asked you out?" Clint asked, looking ashamed of himself. I sighed.

"Yes. I'm pretty sure it was only a joke, though. He looked pretty damn relieved when I told him to go f*ck himself."

"Of course you did," Clint chuckled.

"Well, I wasn't going to go out with the guy! He destroyed half the city! At least here, at S.H.I.E.L.D., he probably won't cause too much damage..."

"Maybe you'd be surprised."

"Damn, Dr. Banner! Clear your throat or something!"

"My apologies, Agent Romanoff," Bruce apologised, smiling at me. His arm was around Darcy, Jane's friend.

"So, what's this?" I gestured to Darcy and winked at Bruce.

He blushed. I leaned over and pinched his cheeks. "Aw, how cute!"

Bruce lightly batted my hand away. "Ssshh, Tasha, me and Darcy are just... Well, dating."

I punched the air. "Brucie's got a girlfriend!" I squealed. Bruce and I had gotten really close, and I wanted to see him happy.

Bruce looked about to correct me, but Darcy stopped him. "Come on, Brucie, people were gonna know anyway." She smiled at me. "Darcy Lewis. Your boy here? Amazing in bed."

If I'd thought Bruce couldn't turn any redder, I was wrong.

"Darcy, I think I like you!" I said, laughing at Bruce's face.

"Of course you do. I mean, damn girl, I can tame the Hulk!"


"Hey, Tasha!"

"That's Agent Romanoff to you," I shot at Loki.

"Nah, you just seem like a Tasha," he teased.

"Don't play with me, Loki. I'm still lookng for an excuse to kick your ass, remember?"

"How could I forget? I do so look forward to the day you'll willingly get that close to me."

"That'll take a while," I informed him.

"Maybe not. I can be quite charming."

I scoffed. "Why are you interested in me anyway? I'm probably the person you have the least chance with on Earth."

Loki sighed. "I don't know, Natasha. There's just... Something about you. Look, let's just pretend this never happened, okay? I really want everyone here to trust me, so will you just... Be my friend?"

I sighed and nodded. "Okay. I can try and trust you. I can tell that Thor really thinks you've changed, and I'm pretty sure everyone else does, too. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, Loki."


"You trust him?" Clint asked me. I was lying on my bed, it was about 3 o'clock in the morning.

"Damn, Barton! I was sleeping!"

"No you weren't, Tash. You look so much more relaxed when you're asleep."

I groaned. "What do you want, Clint?"

"Answer my question: Do you trust him?"

I sighed. "Honestly, I don't know. He seems genuine, and I want to trust him. So, he's getting one chance. One screw up and he's dead."

Clint paced. "But what if his one chance gets somebody killed, Natasha?"

"But what if he means it and I end up-"

"Falling for him?" Barton snapped.

"I'm not going to fall for somebody that's evil, Clint! Besides, you know I don't have time for any of that..." I sighed. Sometimes, I wished I could make time.

Not finished my Clint/Natasha scene, but this seemed like a good place to end it :-) I'm using valuable homework time for this, so I hope you're enjoying! :-)
