A/N: Okay so finally, another chapter. I've just got an extreme case of writer's block where I literally have no ideas for anything at all -_- well I got this idea somehow so here you go!
Rule 15: Valentine's Day... Never Again
You were probably aware that there was recently a holiday. You're probably aware that I hate holidays. You're probably aware that my fiancé is the most obnoxious man on this planet, accepting my best friend.
Despite the other reasons such as everyone making fun of Steve for being unable to get a girl every year, and Natasha using the countless boxes of chocolates, and endless flowers sent from the rookies as target practice, This is why Valentines day is now banned.
Pepper and I shopped early, not wanting to arouse suspicion, (Tony had a knack of bribing SHIELD agents to take off work and follow us at the mall in order to find out what we were getting him for his birthday, with large sums of money.)
I ended up only getting a card for Clint at the mall (a cheesy one, with a picture of Merida that read "Daughter, I hope you have the best Valentine's Day ever!") I hated mushy, gooey, love-y dove-y (Wibbly Wobbly Time-y wimey? Everything's a Doctor Who reference, isn't it Scarlette?) stuff. Clint and I have had too many run ins with the "I'm not going to make it out alive, just remember I love you" type missions to waste our big speeches on something as petty as a holiday. I found these fancy sea-salt Caramels online, and knowing they were Clint's secret childhood favorite, I ordered them for him. Done. That was easy.
I was hoping Clint would get me something classy. Maybe some flowers, or chocolate (God, I love chocolate.) or maybe he'd take the subtle hint of me *accidentally* adding that sparkly blue TARDIS shaped ring to his Etsy cart on his laptop instead of mine... (Come on Scarlette. Your readers who haven't seen Doctor Who are getting really confused and are probably going to stop reading. Please don't stop reading! I promise I'll stop!)
But of course not. That morning I got a next from Clint reading "Love me, love me, say that you love me." Great. He's starting this Valentine's Day with Justin Bieber. This isn't a good sign.
Later in the day I got another text. "Girl, you can say anything you wanna. I don't give a shh, no one else can have ya."
Then there was "Baby, you light up my world like nobody else. The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed."
And the grand finale, right before our dinner with Pepper and Tony (Pepper begged we double date, there was an incident last Valentine's day where Tony got a bit drunk, and forgot who she was. Tony won't get drunk around me, at least, as long as I make bring my Sharpie collection, and make sure he knows. You only make that mistake once) He texted me a link to a YouTube video.
I think I died.
Clint had set up a boom box in front of Stark Tower for everyone to see, and sang along to "Kiss You" The actual only song by One Direction I had ever heard. (I've heard clips of "That's What Makes You Beautiful, and I've heard Clint sing it, but the only song I had ever heard completely through was Kiss You, because Pepper was obsessed, and wanted me to be to. Needless to say, I am not a fan of Pop music and Pepper could not force me to listen to another song.)
" And if you, you want me too, just make a move, and tell me girl if every time we touch, you get this kinda rush, let me say yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah yeah, and let me kiss you."
It rang throughout the entire headquarters.
Everyone was playing it over and over again for weeks.
Funny thing is, the person who hates it the most, is the one who it was made for.
He totally should've gotten me a TARDIS ring.
Next Rule: O.o
Thank's for reading!
