Bringing her hand back to her pillow, Natasha let her eyes close for a moment and relaxed. “Mmm, a week somewhere tropical is sounding very nice right about now.”

She enjoyed her job, the action and the adrenaline rush, but even the Black Widow needed a break every once in a while. She knew Fury would never push them past their limits to the point that they were being endangered, but sometimes she wondered if he overestimated them. They were his top team, but they needed rest just like everyone else if they wanted to stay that way.

“Hot sand, good surf, nobody that knows us for miles...” With her eyes still closed she smiled at the mental image. “I know you think you would get bored, but I promise I would find ways to keep you entertained.”


((Ha! nice. and here I don’t even have real wine glasses for my wine))
