Summary: Follows the events of “Breathe”, Clint’s first night at home, or rather at Natasha’s home. Lots of cuddly assassins and a little hurt!Clint. If you haven’t read “Breathe” or “The Blanket” you might want to think about doing so to really appreciate this fic, though neither is necessary.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the story, though I would like to appreciate a Clint of my own, thank you!
Author's notes: This fic was spawned in an ATTF on be_compromised, way back in May or June. It took me forever to finish it, thanks to a nasty case of writer’s block. But it’s finally done and I like it!
Lots of love to my beta anuna_81 for helping me figure out how to make this fic better. And to crazy4orcas for being a sounding board, thank you!
