Who: Bobbi
NPC: Barney Barton
What: After run
Where: Park
When: June 5
She was beginning to get a little stir crazy. She loved her husband, and she took all that vacation pay she had added up for a reason. But whenever she spent a certain amount of time not working she felt weird. Clint seemed to be dealing as well as could be expected. He was tossing out jokes and good cheer coupled with a weird moroseness she wasn't used to seeing from him as he shuffled around the house.
So when she felt stir crazy she did the only thing she'd always done when she felt anything she didn't want to feel. She ran. She'd been running her entire life.
She'd been going for a while, dodging people, and mindful of her surroundings. That was until she saw him. Anyone else would have missed him, he was just a guy sitting on the bench at the park, but even without seeing his face, he was a bit too tense, dressed a bit too business for a Sunday afternoon at the park.
She slowed to a stop, breathing hard, she walked in a small circle to shake out her limbs before saying anything. "So I take it you've heard?" He nodded.
Bobbi had met Barney a couple of times in the past, but she'd largely stayed out of their relationship. Sometimes they were fine, and other times they were just the most adversarial guys on the planet.
"And you're here with me because?"
"I know better than to bust in on him. You'll kick my ass." He was trying to charm her.
To be honest, Bobbi was actually at a loss at what to do here. She really should tell him to fuck off because she wasn't exactly sure what a visit would accomplish, but something was stopping her. She was an expert at reading people, and nothing coming off of him seemed to be anything but sincere.
"There's a pizza place with outside seating a few blocks north of here. Three O'clock. If we're not there by half after he decided not to come." It was a couple hours from now. She began to walk around before turning around. "And if you ever stalk me again to find out where I am, I will end you." She said before jogging off.
