Clint’s reaction was actually pretty adorable, and Natasha loved the way his eyes lit up at such a simple thing. With the world wide scale their jobs often took on, it was always good to remember that it was the simple things in life that really mattered.
Slipping one arm around him, she lightly brushed the hair at his temples with one finger. It didn’t escape her notice how carefully he laid his head upon her, her well-being never far from his mind. “You’re on vacation. A little scruff never hurt anyone,” she said, sliding her fingers down to brush over the stubble on his cheek. She loved it when he was clean shaven, but there was also a different appeal to that prickly stubble against certain parts her body.
With her other arm she traced lazy patterns on his shoulder and bicep as he softly caressed her skin. Kissing the top of his head, she lay her own back on the pillow and closed her eyes, a content sigh escaping her lips. No matter what the world threw at them, if they could end the day like this, more often than not, then Natasha was sure the days would be easy enough to face.
