Requested by Whovian3135.

Also please tell me if you catch me unexpectedly switching tenses (from past and present). I've had a major Writer's block and I'm trying to get back into writing again after this, so please point any tense changes out to me (if you can)! Thanks!

You had stayed home all day preparing for your upcoming mission. Clint had been sent out earlier for a rescue mission, and he was also aiding you on your mission.

"Hey Clint," You greet Clint as he walks in the apartment you two shared.

You notice Clint was acting weird, including that he was draping his jacket over his left side. He responds with a simple and quite "Hey."

"Everything alright?" You ask as you follow up behind him.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine. I'm just- distracted." He walks over to place his bags on the ground, and proceeds towards your room.

He was hiding something. He had to be. Sure Clint was unusual naturally, but he was acting stranger than normal.

You follow up behind him and decide to confront him.

"Clint." You say boldly.

"Yes?"

"Tell me the truth, are you sure everything's okay?"

Clint just nods, when you reach for the jacket. He begins to refuse, but then just submits. A large wound is revealed on his leg,

"Clint-." You begin as Clint interrupts.

"It's nothing, I promise. I'm fine." He reassures, but this time pulls you into a hug.

"I hope so." You mumble as Clint releases you from the hug.

Clint begins to walk up to your room, when you interrupt again.

"Clint, you shouldn't go out to tomorrow's mission. You need to rest."

"Y/N, look, I told you I'm fine! It's really not that bad. It's only a minor injury." Clint counters.

"Minor? I don't remember minor injuries being that large." You respond.

Clint turns to face you. "Goodnight, Y/N." Clint only says that, and gently closes the door to your room as he avoids conversation.

"This is a bad idea." You murmur to yourself as you turn and begin down towards the room you were previously in.

~~~~~

You were fighting against some rogue SHIELD agents alongside Clint. You notice Clint's struggle as he barely manages to obtain the correct posture and aim.

An agent shoots towards Clint, as he hardly dodges the bullet, scrambling to load his bow with another arrow.

You deliver a blow to the agent, knocking him hard to the ground. Clint nods at you with gratitude, as he hobbles on to fight more enemies.

You sigh as you hold your gun by your side following Clint. "I swear that man's going to be the death of himself someday."

Clint began to get more "physical." He shoves agents down with his bow, then shoots them.

He lets out a sigh of relief as he clears all the agents around him. Suddenly, an agent creeps on him, behind his back.

"Clint!" You shout grasping his attention. Clint turns around, only to be knocked unconscious.

~~~~

"...I knew this was a bad idea." Clint grumbles to himself as you crack open the door. Clint groans as he sits up slowly in the hospital bed.

"I told you so." You say, as you grab the medicine you were ordered to give Clint.

"I should've listened to you, Y/N. Instead of quietly agreeing I just was stubborn again." He mumbles as you inject the medicine into Clint's arm.

"You know, that's what I like about you, your stubbornness." You smile warmly as you put the needle down.

"What?" Clint gives you an odd look.

You proceed to the side of the bed, standing beside Clint. "Sure, we all have positive characteristics, but I think it's our negative ones that truly make us feel- diverse. Your stubbornness just makes you more lovable."

"And it's you accepting of my negative parts that makes me love you." Clint grins.

A/N

This request was long overdue and I great apologize for that! (Sorry if it wasn't what you expected) And I apologize in advance for the other person waiting for their request to be completed, but I am working on it!

The reason of why I've been so inactive recently is because school has started back up and I've had tons of homework and just lots of things going on. I was also going to try and upload as much as I could, but then I got sick. So yeah :)

Anyways enough of me making little excuses, I hope you all have had a wonderful week so far!
