and beautiful, and dancing away with my heart
rating: g
length: drabble
characters: Natasha Romanoff, Clint Barton
notes: Set in a college AU where they attend the U. of Hard Knocks
summary: They say you make lifelong friends in college, but they never mention you can meet them fifty feet above ground, breaking all the rules. [AU]
He’s a college junior with a firmly established taste for heights, opting to spend much of his free time on the roof of his dorm. It has a decent view of campus, it’s easily accessible from the old oak (if you’re willing to risk climbing it), and most importantly there’s no chance of anyone else showing up.
She’s a Russian exchange student in a sundress, sliding out legs first from the window a few feet from where he’s sitting. Her laughter is soft and exhilarated as she balances lightly on the balls of her feet, seemingly unafraid of being inches from a very long drop.
“I thought that window didn’t open,” he says.
“It’s not supposed to,” she replies with a mischievous smile, and tucks the lockpicks into her bra.
