I don' thave a strict headcanon, it basically wanders depending on what fic I read at the time, but I really want more from the movies hinting at what happened between them.
I think what is most interesting to me, although I don't see this often in fic (I don't think?) is that it took some time for them to grow closer together. I think Natasha's mind during joining up with SHIELD, meeting everyone, learning how this huge agency operates (and how its different from the Red Room) is fascinating. So I'm thinking while she may or may not have been focused on Clint at this time, it probably wasn't "Lets start a relationship" right away.
There was actually a fic that I read that talked about her starting out (and I can't remember anything else that happened in the fic) that was kinda unusual b/c basically Clint brought her in, and then left on a mission for 6 months. It was just something I never considered but if this was "real life" (you know, as much as comic book movies are lol), something like that could have totally happened. Or he was married/dating someone else at the time, or she was focused on Agent Ward (lol, probably not), who knows?
But somehow, at some point, they become each other's entire worlds. And have lots of awesome sex. And then she starts wearing an arrow necklace because they have to mix in adorableness with being deadly assassins.
