Although it was a joke, Natasha could tell that the thought bothered Clint. He had gotten painted the bad guy here, having to deal with it on his own instead of both of them sharing the blame. She hadn’t meant for it to be that way, hadn’t even considered the possibility; she had had other things on her mind.
“I’m sure she’ll get over it. You are awfully hard to hate,” she said, squeezing his hand again.
She wasn’t expecting the added distraction of caring for the kitten right away, but maybe it would be a good distraction, or maybe it would sleep for the next few hours while they dealt with their own issues first.

“We can put a blanket in the bathtub for now,” Natasha suggested. It would get the kitten out of the cage, but not give her free range to roam around the house just yet. It would be a big enough space for one so tiny to rest in for an hour or two, surely.
She saw the house looming ahead and was somehow filled with both relief and trepidation. The four walls gave her comfort, but once inside there would be no hiding.
