Thank you for the encouraging reviews! Please keep them coming :) here is the second chapter. I apologise for the wait but exams have swamped me and then I kinda typed about half of it and forgot to click save..and well you can see where this is going...Also feel free to message ideas or things... Happy reading! The bold is for the speech for the flash back (mainly just cause I was playing around tbh but hey) :) DISCLAIMER: I own nothing...apart from my wonderful ideas :D


Tony POV

He thought back to those few days ago. Just after "Clintasha" had broken up he had spotted Tash leaning against one of the balconies in stark…or as it was now called, avenger tower. He'd approached her...warily, but still approached...

"Well if it isn't Miss Break-Clints-Heart. Pray tell what someone as wonderous as you is doing on my balcony?" He'd said.

"Thank you for that title Tony. Although I'm not sure it is I who you should be calling that. As to your question of why I'm stood on you balcony...well, I just needed a break"

At the time he had just dismissed it as a little quip. Not truly understanding the meaning of her second sentence. He always focus on the most recent event...

"A break from what Tash? Do you want to tell me whats going on? Because I will find out. You know I will" He looked at her with the best questioning look he could muster up. With a heavy sigh she turned back to the night sky.

"I'm contemplating Tony, that's what I'm doing. I'm trying to figure out how my life is going to lead out. I wanted the best for me. For me and Clint. But I saw past the charade that he was putting up and I couldn't take it anymore. I broke it off Tony, not because I didn't love him-I do- but because he doesn't love me"

"Doesn't love you my ass. I have never seen someone as smitten with another person as Clint is with you. So answer me Natasha. Why."

"You think I enjoy causing him this pain? Do you think I enjoy being like this? No. Oh come on tony! Can't you see? Of all people, I expected you to see the signs."

The truth was, he hadn't seen them. The little quirks and tell-tale signs that gave Hawkeye away. The fleeting glances, the teasing and above all, the flirting. At the time he had just put it down to team bonding, he knew Clint was with Tasha. But now he knew. As soon as she said it, he knew. Hawkeye was...

"Gay."

"Finally! Now do you understand? I couldn't stay with him. He wasn't only lying to me but he was lying to himself. Anyway, I confronted him about it and he denied it. I decided then that I couldn't be with someone who would lie that outrageously to my face. So i broke it off."

"God...I...I-I understand now. But, are you sure? How could you be sure?"

"Just watch Tony. Watch."

And that is exactly what he did. He watched Clint for the whole week. He watched how he acted with the other avengers, he watched how he acted with Tash and soon it became all too clear. Of course, he'd been admiring Clint for a while now. I mean how could anyone resist those arms?

But as he stood at the bar, waving off many potential partners, he knew what he had to do...

Clint POV

THe most important question was why. Why would Stark bring him to this bar when he knew that Clint was straight? Which he was. No matter what Tash had said. But lets say hypothetically she was right and that he was harbouring feelings towards certain members of the group that shall not be named but have a glowing blue circle in their chest...what would bringing him to this bar achieve? And how would-

"So Clint enjoying yourself?"

He was brought out of his inner turmoil...by said glowing blue circle billionaire. Who was leering at him with that gorgeous face, and those eyes... NO. He was not gay.

"Oh yes Stark. I just love being thrusted at by complete strangers..."

Stark leant in close to his ear. His hot breath on his neck...GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF CLINT.

"They don't have to be complete strangers...if you want" And with a wink, Tony left.

Leaving him, Hawkeye, a infamous assassin, wondering, did Stark just invite him to...?
