Author's Note: So this is just a drabble I threw together for a gifset on Tumblr, but I thought I'd upload it here to encourage me to write more haha, and to keep things organized :)

This is very AU, inspired by many hours waiting at the doctor's office.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in the story.

She looked like a little angel when she was sleeping. Clint didn't want to wake her so late at night, but this couldn't wait. "Hey, baby girl", he whispered softly.

She opened her big grey blue eyes, that looked so much like his own. His lips curled up a bit. She was exactly like him. Except her spirit. Her spirit was all Natasha's. "Daddy?", she asked, voice still sleepy, "what's happening?"

"Mommy and daddy need to go away, honey", Clint replied sadly. "Only for a little while", he added, when he noticed her worried expression.

"Are you going to put bad guys in jail again?", she asked him.

"Yeah, baby", Clint chuckled. "Mommy is going to teach the bad guys a lesson, as she always does. Keep the world safe and all that."

Natasha smiled, amused, and looked at her little daughter. "You think you can be a big girl for us, baby?"

"I think so", she replied, not sounding very confident. "When are you coming back?"

"Not sure, sweetie", Natasha said, feeling her heart tighten. "But hey, we want to give you something." She held out a golden chain with a cross pendant. "Your father gave it to me after we met. Told me to search for the light in everything, and everyone, even when you only see darkness",she added, trying to conceal the sadness in her much as the Black Widow loved going on missions, ever since their daughter was born she was apprehensive each time they had to leave her. "We want you to keep it safe for us, ok?"

"It's pretty", she smiled. Natasha put the necklace on her daughter. "I'll keep it safe for you, mommy", she said, wrapping her arms around her mother.

"Now go back to sleep, sweetheart", Clint said, caressing her cheek. "You know how much we love you, right?"

"More than all the stars in the sky combined", she smiled, already half asleep.

Clint watched her close her eyes, missing his little girl before they were even gone. "Bye, baby", he and Natasha whispered, almost simultaneously, shutting the door behind them, wishing time would fly so they could be back to their daughter, or so she could join them. It was in her blood, after all.

That's it :D I know it's super short, but hey, it's my first try, so please forgive an amateur haha. Review if you like it, pretty please? :))
