Thor is gone for a whole week. He's gone and all of the stupid week is sunny; there's not a single cloud in the sky. It feels unreasonable to think so, but it's like the climate is mocking her. She feels spiteful on behalf of Thor for this.
How dare the weather not have one single lonely raincloud in his absence?
Natasha thinks about that, about the sunny day and how happy rain makes Thor. She ponders on how she's learned to associate light rains with Thor's good moods. Even before all this happened, if the blond wasn't there but there was rain, she'd remember him; gray clouds brought back his noble yet happy disposition, the winds reminded her of his power and the thunder… well, there isn't much more to say about that particular aspect.
"Hey." Clint greets her and bumps his shoulder against her. They're on the penthouse terrace, leaning against the rail and looking out at the city.
Her partner looks down at his arms for a moment and then at her.
"Thor stood you up or something?" He asks quietly.
In his voice, there's not a single trace of contempt at the prospect or the distrust he had shown her about the debated subject; there was only the gentle concern of a worried friend.
She sighs but smiles, turning to him. "He's coming back, he just needs to find a few things first."
Clint nods but doesn't say much more. The wind brushes against them and even up here they are assaulted at times by the constant smog of the thousand cars of the city.
"You've been looking a little dejected all week, I was starting to worry." The archer admits.
"I'm okay." Natasha rests her head on his shoulder for a moment. "Just a little anxious that's all."
Clint breaths in and she feels the movement through the rise of his body.
"I'm here for you." He says.
Natasha sighs and closes her eyes. "Thank you."
As they contemplate the city skyline, she wishes it would rain for a few minutes, she thinks it'll make her feel if only a little better.
She keeps waiting.
