Comic booking it

[from_a_distance]

Clint was not one to frequent comic shops. In fact, he usually stayed as far away from them as possible--not because, like the other Avengers, he was afraid he might be recognized, but because he was pretty certain he wouldn't be, and that got a little old after a while.

But Coulson had been moping because he couldn't get in to get his Captain America comics for a couple months, and Clint didn't like to see Coulson moping, so he decided to stop by and pick them up for the agent. He'd probably just drop them on his desk when Coulson wasn't around, but at least he knew it would make the man smile.

"Well, it is about time to get some sleep."

[from_a_distance]

"Yep," Clint says to Blaine. "And yours."

[mediumdrip]

"Are you coming with us? I bet Clint wouldn't mind sharing his bed for a sleep over," he said to Phil.

[sonofcoul]

He blinks a few times. "Well. I'm pretty sure Clint doesn't need me accidentally kicking him or something in the middle of the night."

[from_a_distance]

Clint is pretty glad Coulson got to that one first. He's not sure he could have managed an answer right away.

"You don't kick, sir," he contributes and then realizes that is not at all what he should have said.

"Does that mean you guys have had sleepovers before?" Blaine's face lights up. "You should come over then! We can watch a movie before we go to bed. Come on, please, Phil?

[sonofcoul]

"I don't know if there's time to squeeze in a movie."

[from_a_distance]

"Yeah, that would get really late, kiddo."

[mediumdrip]

"Oh... okay," Blaine says. "I guess that means good night?"

[sonofcoul]

"Yeah. Good night. I'm sure I'll see you both tomorrow. It was very nice to meet you, Blaine."

[from_a_distance]

"Yeah, he'll be around," Clint assures him. "Don't worry."

[mediumdrip]

Blaine moves to give Phil a hug before they leave to go back to Clint's room.

[sonofcoul]

He hugs Blaine back only slightly awkwardly before giving them both a little smile and heading off to catch up on paperwork before bed.

[from_a_distance]

Clint watches in amusement. "Good night, sir."

[mediumdrip]

Blaine yawns again, but tries to hide it behind his hand.

[from_a_distance]

"All right, kiddo," Clint says to him. "Let's get to bed."

[mediumdrip]

Blaine nods. It sounds like a good idea so he doesn't even complain as Clint takes him back to their room.

[from_a_distance]

"I've got a toothbrush for you in the bathroom," Clint says when they get back. "You want to get ready for bed?"

[mediumdrip]

Blaine nods. "Yeah," he says. "I'll go change into my pjs first." He moves to his bedroom to where he had put his bag to take out his night clothes.

[from_a_distance]

Clint heads to his own bedroom to change. Normally he just sleeps in his underwear, but he figured if he was going to have a kid living with him, he ought to put on some actual clothes, so he eventually comes out in sleep pants and a t-shirt.

[mediumdrip]

Blaine goes to the bathroom to brush his teeth and get ready for bed. Once he's done he wipes off the water on the sink and sets his toothbrush on the edge of it for the morning.

[from_a_distance]

Clint comes into the bathroom just as he's finishing. "Ready for bed?"

[mediumdrip]

Blaine nods at that. "Yeah," he says. "Thank you for today."

[from_a_distance]

"Of course!" He smiles and heads for Blaine's room, turning down the covers for him.

[mediumdrip]

Blaine climbs into bed and cuddles up against his pillow. "Is this where I'm going to live?"
