Clint didn't think he would get tired anytime soon of how Natasha looked when she was spending time with little one. Her cheeks had their color back, that much he could see from the corner of his eyes easily, and with her hair in that certain style, her body just a little more rounded than usual... He had never seen her that young looking, and - except for these days of pain and fear - certainly not that relaxed.
He wondered if she was aware just how loving and affectionate she smiled down at their little visitor. For a moment he could see it clearly with his inner eye, how she held a small little bundle of human in her arms instead, how happy she would be... Though the scare that thought brought had let off a little, he didn't dwell in that picture too long. Looking forward to things that weren't completely certain was too dangerous.
But he did feel very much like kissing that soft rosy shine of her skin and her lips right now. He didn't want to disturb her or startle the kitten, so he just waited and went on getting their food done.
Reservation seemed to be the right way. Soon enough Liho angled for Natasha's hand playfully and purred a little, forgotten the plan of jumping on the counter for the moment. It was more and more clear that little one had taken a deep liking to her temporary owner.
With a probably completely dumb smile on his lips, Clint got the first of their pancakes out on a plate and decorated it with a little extra chocolate for Natasha to enjoy before starting on the second. He gave Liho two seconds before she would try to join him on the counter after all.
