Clint pulled Natasha's hand to his lips without opening his eyes and left a kiss on every of her knuckles. He was always very thankful for her sharing her past with him, even if it was such a random seeming occasion. For her, for them, it wasn't. He knew how hard it was for her to feel and accept happiness, still, and back then, before her life had taking a turn for the better, it doubtlessly had been even harder. Such little glimpses into a life full of harmless smiles had probably made things a little easier from time to time, and that made the story special.
"You have the calmest hands of all the people I know. Well, except for me, of course."
He grinned, fully expecting a well-deserved jab in the ribs for the little teasing, but soon got serious again.
"And you definitely know a perfect moment when it comes up. Maybe we should take a few photos while we're here. You know. Just for us. To remember."
