Suddenly, lips fell upon his own in a powerful, fury kiss. Only the Black Widow could make his head spin like this; no other woman could do such a thing. He never lost his head, agent training and all, but the redhead could knock his guard down completely. She could make him feel like a man and not just a Avenger or a soulless bastard agent. She brought out the human that still resided within him.
His solid arms wrapped around her waist and he pulled her against him tightly so that her body was almost molding completely into his own. His hands went to her hair, that beautiful fire hair, and he touched the soft strands. The kiss stole his breath and by the time she pulled away, he was gasping for air too. "No matter what."
