You and I remember Budapest very differently.
“It was supposed to be routine. In and out.”
“When was the last time something went that smoothly?”

Budapest?
AU Avengers: Budapest, 4 years ago
Natasha and Clint are tasked to intercept a dangerous package that is expected to be passing through Budapest’s famous Parliament Building. All hell breaks loose when Clint is made while attempting to retrieve the package. Natasha goes in, guns blazing, to save him and they flee the scene together while being chased by hundreds of parliament guards and policemen. In the end, they barely escape after blowing up half of District V and have to lay low overnight before S.H.I.E.L.D. can extract them. With adrenaline coursing through them, the two agents let their emotions take over and spend the night together. In the morning, they make their way to the extraction point, both questioning whether sleeping together was a good decision. They mutually decide that what happens in Budapest stays in Budapest and they go their separate ways.
Last night, I had a dream
We were inseparably entwined
Like a piece of rope made out of two pieces of vine
Held together, holding each other
With no one else in mind
Like two atoms in a molecule
Inseparably combined
But then I woke from the dream
To realize I was alone
A tragic event, I must admit
But let’s not be overblown
I’m not trying to write a love song
Just a sad, pathetic moan
And maybe I just need change
Maybe I just need a new cologne“I know you can’t tie your shoes without me, Barton. But try for me would you?”
~AU: Clint kills Natasha under Loki’s control.
Edit: I may have accidentally deleted the first post?

some days, like rain on the doorstep
she’ll cover me
with grace in all she offers
sometimes I’d like just to ask her
what honest words
she can’t afford to say

Budapest was more than just a job.
