Chapter Text
“I was the one who sent that Valentines card.” Clint kept his back pressed against Bucky, left hand raised on guard, the other still wrapped around the riser on his bow. He was itching to pull an arrow from his quiver and take down at least one of the Hydra goons surrounding them, but he’d run out of arrows well before they’d been surrounded.
“What?”
“Your hearing going too? I said I sent you that Valentines card.”
“Do you really think now is the time or the place to confess your love for …”
“I didn’t say anything about confessing love…” Clint’s tone was far more playful than the situation really called for. “But now that you mention it…”
“I love you.” Bucky interrupted him.
“What?”
“Your hearing aids messing up? I said I love you.”
“You know what this means, right?”
“What, you’re not going to say it now? Kinda insulted, Barton.”
“I love you, too.”
“Good.”
“What I was going to say is that now we can’t just let these goons take us down.”
“Hawkeye, please. Like that was ever going to happen. Let’s blow this joint.”
