funny enough, the idea came to him in a movie. one of those romantic comedies he didn’t realize he was watching until it was a little too late and he was a little too invested. steve spent the next evening planning out a picnic on the roof of a nearby building. first, by pulling some strings to get up to the roof and second by preparing what he thought would be a decently romantic meal. flowers were included, as was only right. a dozen roses to serve as a center piece on a starlit evening. ideally, whatever wind they encountered up on the roof wouldn’t touch the roses if they were hidden behind something else.
as much as he wanted to prepare something lavish and decadent, it just didn’t seem practical for the area. so, instead, steve put together a few chicken caesar wraps. then, he picked up some cream puffs from one of his favorite nearby bakeries. all about the hand-helds. whatever they could pick at with their fingers ( that seemed the best idea, right? ). a few thick moving blankets was topped with the large throw from the back of his couch just to make everything else more presentable. that and sitting on the textured surface didn’t seem romantic in the slightest.
to round it all off was several vanilla candles set into mason jars. again, trying to combat whatever breeze they may encounter.
getting clint up to the roof was easy enough. interlaced fingers gently squeeze. before opening the door, though, the soldier is hit with a wave of anxiety. what if the archer hated it? what if he took it all the wrong way? lips part to ask clint of he’s ready to pass through the door and step onto the roof but he’s only met with a wave of nerves. “ uh, “ steve swallows down. “ i hope you don’t think this is too cheesy. i got the idea from…well, it’s not important. if you don’t like it we can… “ talking wasn’t getting him anywhere, so steve leans in. as lips press together he finds himself getting lost in the emotion, almost forgetting where he was and why he was standing there. fingers gently grasp at the back of clint’s neck and as he pulls away there’s a gentle graze of teeth. “ i’m not usually this kind of cheesy, i know. so, just bare with me, “ he says before pushing open the door to reveal how he spent his day.
his mind was racing trying to figure out what was happening exactly. while he was certainly rolling with it, holding steves hand and letting him lead the way --- there was a part of him trying to piece together what he was hiding. there was a rare nervous air surrounding the captain. one that he normally hid pretty well, which was throwing him a bit. nonetheless he walks with ease at his side, “ are you about to take me to my death? because really, i think there are much better ways for you to kill me. for one im thinking just a quick snap of the neck. honestly it’s quick, painless, and really i’ve needed to see a chiropractor for a while anyways. ” he’s not being serious, but he also feels a need to fill the silence that had settled between them as they head up some stairs.
he’s about to continue but is cut off as they finally come to a stop and steve is speaking. much like he had guessed, the captain was nervous about something. even the uncertainty was clear in his voice as he spoke. a brow is arching, an idea? what the hell was going o-- his thoughts are cut off as lips come down on his eliciting a small hum from him. his hand reaches up, cupping the side of steve’s face as he returns the kiss. everything about him softens, muscles relaxing with the comfort and ease of the touch. per usual his heart flips in his chest. a feeling that he was getting quite used to when it came to steve. one that he welcomed.
all too soon the kiss is ending, with him leaning forwards chasing the kiss to prolong it a bit more but his attention is redirected. clint moves through the door and pauses after stepping into the outside world. for a moment he’s quiet. oceanic hues taking in the view and set up before him. the little picnic that has been created has a grin spreading on his lips, “ you made us a picnic. ” his words are soft and filled with awe as he chuckles and moves forward some more. “ i don’t think anyone has ever done something like this for me. i .... thank you, steve. it’s great. definitely cheesy, but i happen to like cheesy. ”
