Time always seemed to move a hell of a lot slower when Clint wasn't around. It was irritating, in all honesty, because they both had pretty busy schedules and sometimes seeing each other was just not possible. Like the past week. She'd been in England and Clint had been in France. His schedule for Nationals kept him busy and the outstanding work she had to do for Adrian kept her occupied as well. Which naturally meant that by the time she made it to either her home or his, all she wanted to do was pull on some pajamas and crawl into bed.
So when Thursday rolled around, it wasn't surprising to find her curled up in Clint's bed with Boo and Cat, wearing one of his button downs and a pair of boy shorts. Letting Boo curl up against her side, her fingers reached out to scratch Cat, currently sleeping on Clint's pillow as he normally did in Clint's absence. It was bloody quiet, the only sound was the loud purring from Cat and the soft snores of Boo. While most would find it peaceful, Lexi was just restless.
She laid there for a long time just staring at the ceiling and letting her mind wander, but it always seemed to go back to the same place. She was still irritated with both Clint and Adrian for trying to control her life as they had, even under the guise of protection, but she didn't see how sitting around by herself thinking about it was doing her any favours. It just brought up thoughts of her Father that she wished to be free of. Adrian had said she could have a week off if she was with Clint, so why not take advantage of it? It was better than lying there and getting no sleep.
Sighing, she got up and gathered a few things. With her bag over one shoulder, she moved to pick up a very disgruntled Boo. Reaching out to Cat, who had turned his back on her with her sudden movement, and gave him a last scratch behind the ears before she headed for the Floo. It was only a moment later when she was stepping out into the living room of Clint's temporarily rented apartment in France. Setting Boo down, she smiled wryly as she took a running start at one of the chairs and managed to scramble up onto the seat before curling into a tiny white ball and returning to her previously undisturbed sleep.
