And it was fun to watch them. For three normally very observant people, they were very slow on the uptake with this one, and Tony and Natasha weren't being that subtle about it. They were kissing in front of them but they were definitely spending more time together than they were before but the three just wrote it off as having become better friends in the time that they had spent alone while they were away.

What was downright hilarious was seeing the looks of Clint and Steve's faces when Tony bested them separately in mini fights. Alright, they had been going ridiculously easy on him, but they had thought that he had had no training whatsoever and they didn't want to hurt the billionaire, despite what they said about him sometimes.

They soon figured that out though when they caught sight of Natasha dying from laughter in the doorway as she watched them. She would repeatedly tell them how the looks on their faces had been priceless and had downloaded the videos from the security cameras. She now showed them occasionally to take the mick out of the two men and get a good laugh out of it and Steve and Clint took it well. Steve took it better than Clint did but they were still both good sports, they were determined to get back at Natasha for that one though so she was being extra careful with everything she did, waiting for the retaliation.

The team ended up spending more time together as well now as the ate meals together cooked by either Natasha, Tony or Bruce most of the time. Clint could cook as well but he tended to stick to breakfasts whilst the other three rotated who was cooking. They still had their takeaway nights, though, when none of them could be bothered to cook and they just wanted to relax.

Everything was back to normal and rather domestic, not that they would admit to that, and everyone had adapted their routines to fit in with the others, but the three still hadn't figured out Tony and Natasha's secret. Thor, for his part, had kept his word and hadn't said a thing, but Tony and Natasha noticed him smiling at them from time to time, showing his approval and happiness for them and that was nice for them. For their friend to have accepted their relationship so easily and be so happy for them just because they were happy made them feel even better about themselves and their relationship. They were just waiting for the others to figure it out now.

Clint was the next one to figure it out which shouldn't have been a surprise as he was the master spy alongside Natasha except he only figured it out by accident so it didn't really count. It had been very late one night, or early one morning, he wasn't completely sure, but he had gone to Natasha's room to try and get her back for not telling them about her training Tony. He had just a small little prank, he knew it was dangerous to prank the Black widow but it was so small and childish that he thought he may just get away with it. There was only one flaw to his plan. Natasha wasn't in her room. Nor was she on the common floor, or in the gym or anywhere else that Clint could think to look for her. Suddenly worried about his friend, he hurried to Tony's room to find out if he knew where Natasha was, he seemed to be close with her, and if he didn't know, to track her down.

It had been a night they had finally let their guard down and one or the other had forgotten to lock the door. Clint had tried nocking, not wanting to wake anyone else, but when he got no response, he tried the door and it opened. Slipping into the room, he couldn't help the gasp of shock he let out when he saw Natasha curled up in the arms of Tony Stark. In the next second, there was a gun aimed straight at his heart and Tony was waking up slowly, Natasha having jerked out of his arms.

There were several moments when, in the half light of the room, the three stared at each other before Natasha lowered her gun and placed it back on the bedside table before shuffling out of the covers to sit on the edge of the bed. Clint was shocked once again to see that Natasha was wearing Tony's shirt and boxers, or at least he assumed that was what they were as they were men's ones.

Groaning Natasha said, "Clint ..."

"So you and Tony are together then," Clint said. "Why didn't you tell me?

"We were waiting to see how long it would take you to figure it out. I have to say, I didn't expect it to take you so long birdbrain," Tony said. "Thor figured it out straight away."

"Thor figured it out before me. How the ..." Clint shouted before Natasha clamed a hand over his mouth to stop him.

"Shhh, you'll wake up the others," she muttered but it was too late. There was a thundering of footsteps before three sleepy Avengers all stumbled into Tony's bedroom. Thor had some pyjamas on that had been a joke gift from Darcy with helmets and hammers on them, hammer in hand. Steve had red, white and blue pyjamas on, shield in hand, looking very patriotic. Bruce was there in purple pyjamas and looking half asleep.

"What's going on?" Bruce asked.

Natasha smacked a guilty looking Clint around the back of the head whilst Thor relaxed and smiled. This would be funny to watch.

"Guys," That was Steve. "What happened?"

"The idiot here was shocked that Thor had figured out that Tony and I are seeing each other before he did an he decided to announce t to the whole tower," Natasha snarked.

Bruce didn't seem shocked at that, just muttering his congratulations before shuffling back off to bed. Clint still looked shocked and confused and was sending Thor suspicious looks. Poor Steve was bemused.

"What ... I mean ... How ..." he stumbled.

Natasha rolled her eyes and took charge. Ushering the boys out of the room she said, "Look, this can wait till morning. Barton, you're cooking breakfast. We'll explain it all to you then." She then promptly shut the door in their face and crawled back into bed with Tony who chucked at her antics.

Steve was still confused. "But she was wearing ..."

"Yeah Steve, she was wearing Tony's stuff. Let's just get to bed and then quiz them about it tomorrow morning," Clint said.

Thor and Clint patted Steve's shoulder as he stood staring in shock at the closed door before they headed back to bed. Eventually Steve came to his senses enough to head back to bed and sleep.

Clint, Steve, Bruce and Thor were up early the next morning, breakfast already cooking, waiting for Natasha and Tony to join them. They sat there in pretty much silence, Thor just smirking at the other three who had been so oblivious, well Bruce not so much but he just didn't feel the need to know everything about everyone so hadn't asked.

Finally, they were joined by the two, both still dressed in their nightclothes causing Steve to blush slightly at the connotations of what Natasha was wearing. Breakfast was dished up and they stared at the two, waiting for answers.

Natasha and Tony shared a glance before starting.

"The first Friday evening after you all left, we fell asleep on the couch together," Natasha started.

"And when we woke up we ended up kissing and then we spent the night together." Tony didn't want to give too many details but he had to say a bit to explain.

"Then when we woke up, I kind of freaked out but then Tony confessed that he liked me and I liked him as well." It sounded so ridiculous to her ears but she wasn't going to tell them that they had actually told each other that they loved the other. They didn't need to know that.

"And yeah, we've been together ever since. Thor figured it out as soon as he got here and when you all went to your rooms, he asked us about it and we confirmed what he thought. We asked him not to tell you guys because we wanted to see how long it would take for you to figure it out. Didn't think it would take you guys this long and you only found out cause birdbrain over here decided to wander into my room last night. Any particular reason for that?" Tony asked.

"I went to Natasha's room to get her back for not telling us about the fact that she'd trained you but I couldn't find her anywhere. I came to get you to track her down. I was worried."

Natasha snorted at that one but smiled at Clint for the sentiment.

"Well I'm pleased for you guys," Bruce said.

Steve and Clint agreed with that before Clint turned to Thor.

"How did you work it out so fast?" he asked.

"I merely observed them together," Thor replied. "You just saw what you expected and explained away anything you saw because you didn't expect it. I looked at them with no presumptions."

Well, they couldn't argue with that. Natasha and Tony were happy that their friends seemed happy for them and it continued that way. Clint had pulled Natasha aside a few days later to apologise for interrupting them and tell her how happy he was for her.

Natasha and Tony were very happy together and the team could see that. It became common to see the two curled around each other and, for all the teasing (even from Steve once he got used to the idea), the others thought that it was sweet and were pleased for them. They had both found the love that they deserved in each other and it culminated six months later when they watched a very nervous Tony propose.

They were married in a small private ceremony three months later whilst continuing to work for the Avengers. In fact they were lucky that the ceremony wasn't interrupted. Not bad for two people who had been broken but had pieced each other back together.

That's it folks, it's all done! Hope it was all ok and you enjoyed it, its a bit different to the stories that I usually write. Unbeta'd so sorry for the mistakes I'm sure I made. A massive thanks to everyone who has read this story and followed or favourited it.

Extra special thanks to all the reviewers as well, I would say you kept me going but I prewrote this one before I posted the first chapter so that I knew there wouldn't be any massive waits for chapters. I'm now trying to write several chapters in advance so that I won't leave stories unfinished and hanging but we'll have to see how it goes. Hopefully there will be a new Natasha/Tony story up soon but I am putting another up about just Natasha as well.

Please check out my other stories and let me know what you think so I can improve. Thanks again.
