MHA #10- Saturday morning

[throughaphase]

The alarm didn't go off, but Kitty woke up early anyway out of habit. She opened her eyes and glanced toward the window to try and guess how early it actually was without looking at the clock... and realized the window wasn't where it was supposed to be.

Sitting up a little in bed, she took a moment to glance around the strange room, and another moment to realize that it looked familiar. And another moment to realize it was familiar because this used to be her bedroom. Look, it'd been a long time and she'd just woken up. You try to process that fast.

Turning onto her side, she laid a hand on Clint's shoulder in case he wasn't actually awake yet. "Honey, there's a Fandom thing."

Twenty years had not made her any less used to weird stuff happening, no.

[For the omg husband!]

Comments

"Fine. Confused, early-" Early is not a feeling, Kitty. "-but fine. You?"

[so_hawkward]

"Everything seems to be in working order," he said, shifting to wrap his arms around her. "At least we're somewhere safe that we know. Admit it, it could be a lot worse."

[throughaphase]

"It could," she agreed, snuggling a little closer. "Odds that Lexi's sleeping on the couch?"

She wasn't hugely worried, because you didn't grow up in the Marvel universe with parents who came from Fandom and not have this happen now and then, really.

[so_hawkward]

"Am I being optimistic if I give it a 50/50 shot?" Clint asked. "As long as she's got her phone, it'll be okay."

[throughaphase]

"And it's a safe bet Logan'll check in with her anyway," Kitty agreed. "Okay, so if 50/50 is optimistic, is it bad that I'm thinking this is time to ourselves?" Which probably sounded bad unless you had things like kids and responsibilities and stuff and understood.

[so_hawkward]

"Oh, I don't think that's bad at all, especially considering where we are," Clint said, grinning and kissing Kitty's neck. "I have a lot of nice memories of this bed."

[throughaphase]

Don't mind her if she tilted her head a little at that. "I'm pretty were we spent time out of it sometimes... Maybe? I might be remembering wrong."

[so_hawkward]

"Of course we did. There was also the couch," Clint said between kisses. "And your counter top was just the right height... or did you mean when we were being responsible adults?"

[throughaphase]

"We were responsible adults?" Valid question.

[so_hawkward]

"Well you always were, aside from marrying me," Clint said with a grin. "I'm so glad you're responsible so I don't have to be."

[throughaphase]

"Glad I can help," Kitty laughed. "Also, marrying you was not irresponsible. It would have been irresponsible if maybe we'd gotten drunk in Vegas when we did it..."

[so_hawkward]

"We could have done it in Vegas, just the two of us and a couple of Elvises," Clint said. "But nooo we had to have an interdimensional wedding. I'm still getting bitched at by Richards, like we didn't think about what we were doing." Honestly, that was just Clint's problem, not Kitty's.

[throughaphase]

"Would you rather get bitched at by Reed Richards or by Logan and Kurt for not inviting them?" she asked. "And Hank, and Ororo, and Rachel..."

[so_hawkward]

"And Tony, and Natasha, I know," Clint said, happily curling against her, fully addicted now to human contact. "Maybe some time away from everyone is a good thing."

[throughaphase]

"With nothing or no one else to worry about besides you and me for a little while?" she said, rubbing a hand over his back.

And okay, ignore that she was totally going to worry about Lexi a little this whole time, but she was a mom and she could deal with that.

"We should probably do this more often."

[so_hawkward]

Clint was going to worry too, especially if Logan was the one watching Lexi. He definitely needed friends who didn't have claws. "I think that would require the world not needing us as often, and I just don't see that happening any time soon. But for now, we can take what we're getting?"

[throughaphase]

"Can we take what we're getting and cross our fingers that the world settles down for a day here and there?" she said hopefully. "Because I can multitask."

[so_hawkward]

"I think I'm capable of doing multiple things at once," Clint said, proving it by kissing Kitty and stroking his hand over her stomach.

[throughaphase]

Kitty kissed him back, smiling against his lips. "Good thing we've got time for you to show me."
