    Summary

    It was one thing to have a supposedly eight-day mission turn into a month-plus-change mission, it was quite another thing for the trip home to take three full days. First getting delayed by a scheduling conflict with her and Clint’s extraction, then by Clint insisting that they picked something up for Laura and the kids as an apology for the delay. Natasha couldn’t argue with that last bit, not when Clint thought all she had to go back to was an apartment, empty except for the cat that the neighbor was feeding while she was away.

    He didn’t know any better, and that was on her. Natasha wasn’t ready for the conversation that would follow if she admitted she was living with James and their cats. Had been living with them for a while and seeing him for even longer. That she wasn’t going back to one of her safehouses or the quarters at the Avengers Tower that Tony insisted was her second home. That she was going home to the apartment she and James had bought together and filled with furniture for them and their cats. The only home she had ever known.

    *************

    Bucky and Natasha try to decide if keeping their relationship a secret from their friends is fair nor not. While having a lot of sex. As you do.
