You had never really imagined being involved in such a large family-like unit, however it had happened rather quickly and you couldn't see anything different to what your life was now.

Living together, working together and just all in all being together was difficult at times but you and your girlfriend just went with it.

Your relationship with Natasha came as a surprise to the team, it was something that they never expected given the fact that Natasha never seemed to be one that wanted a friend let alone a girlfriend.

They all got used to it in the end though; Tony found it incredibly entertaining to take the mick, Bruce was just supportive, Maria loved the fact that there was a cute couple, Clint was protective as per usual, Steve was happy for the both of you and Thor occasionally joined in with Tony's teasing.

Needless to say, when they all decided to go out for the evening, it was bloody amazing to get some peace and quiet.

For some reason, all of them had opted to go out to a bar for a night out, and they didn't question when you and Natasha turned it down – well tony questioned it as he was complaining like a five year old, but Steve got him to shut up with the promise of a beer.

That meant that you and Natasha could stay in your room, watch tv and do absolutely nothing with no interruptions whatsoever.

You two were sat on your bed playing cards whilst the tv was playing in the background.

"How are you so good at this?" you quizzed as your girlfriend won the game yet again.

She laughed and collected the cards "I'm not, you're just incredibly bad" she told you as she began to shuffle them.

You rolled your eyes and fell backwards on the bed "I am not. I can win if I want to" you countered, looking up at the ceiling.

Your view of the ceiling was quickly replaced by your girlfriend's smiling face "In your dreams Y/N/N" she joked, quickly kissing you before sitting back in her spot.

You sat up and Natasha dealt the cards out again "I can win at go fish if I want to" you repeated, telling yourself in your head that you would win.

Natasha shook her head with a smirk on her face "It's called a game of luck for a reason" she reminded you before picking up her hand.

You shrugged and picked up your cards "This round I will win"
