Feel free to send me requests through messaging or comment on a chapter and I'll tag you in your request when I upload which hopefully is a little consistent! Also I might just post a headcannon if I can't make it into a full imagine. Hope you enjoy...
Based off of a Pinterest post which will be shown at the bottom! Credit to the original people for the idea, I just developed it a little more Xx
The silence between them stretched on as they met the others eyes; and all that was there was pain and sorrow for what was to come.
No words were said as Natasha stared at the edge of the cliff, expression hard and eyes glazed over with tears. Never, would she let Clint step over the cliff and fall; it would be her, even if he thought different. As if he could sense her trail of thought, his hand intertwined with her own and he pulled her toward him, shaking his head no repeatedly. "It's okay, you can let me go." she whispered, peering into his eyes; there was no resentment, and no regret within them. She knew what she needed to do. "I can't. How can you ask that of me?" he questioned, cupping her face with his hand, "How can you ask me to let you go, when I can't live without you." his voice trembled, but he forced his words out. Natasha felt her heart ache as she saw the sadness in his eyes, and the tear roll down his cheek. "The world needs you, it can afford to lose me-"
"Don't say that!" he shouted, voice cracking as his lip quivered. "After all the lives you saved, after you saved mine..." he trailed off, kissing her forehead. His lips lingering a moment before he took off at a run towards the edge of the cliff. Natasha gasped at the sudden coldness that replaced where his body had been and she felt her stomach drop to her feet in sheer fear. "Clint!" she screamed, running after him, her feet skidding on the gravel as she grasped his arm and yanked him from the edge before he jumped.
Her breaths came out as shudders. Her fingers that were wrapped around his wrist were white. Her body shook and tears slipped free at the mere idea of losing him. "I can't live without you either." she confessed. Clint wrapped his arms around her and she gripped onto him in case he ran again. The idea of him falling was seared into her mind. "What do we do?" she whispered, blinking up at him as they pulled away, their hands connected in case the other wanted to make a break for it. "Together." he spoke so quietly, peering down at Natasha as if it was the last time he ever would. "The risk..." she mumbled, voice soft yet firm.
"I'd risk it all for even the slightest chance that we both survive." he admitted. Natasha gave him a watery smile and placed her hand on his cheek, wiping his tear away. "Take my hand," she whispered, stepping back and holding it out. "and never let go." Clint finished, grasping her hand tight as they stared at the edge of the cliff. "Just like Tokyo." laughed Natasha to lighten the mood, making Clint chuckle and kiss her hand lightly. "We remember it differently." he winked before they both took off running- they're steps in sync.
As they jumped, their grips tightened and Natasha squeezed her eyes shut as she felt herself begin to fall. Clint glanced one last time at Nat and held his breath, praying beyond anything she would wake afterwards.

Laboured breaths and a rough landing.
Their eyes blinked open, both staring at the sky before their gazes snapped to the one beside them, hands still clutching the other. "Nat?" whispered Clint, his voice broken and in disbelief as she blinked at him. "Clint we made it." she said breathless with relief whilst turning onto her side to face him, when she noticed the glowing coming from their intertwined hands. Hesitantly, Nat removed her hand from Clint's to see the Soul Stone. "We did it." she said, looking at Clint who lay beside her, staring at her as if he wasn't sure she was real. "I love you." she blurted out, feeling her chest constrict at the thought that she could have lost him. He placed his hand on her cheek and let out a shaking breath. "I love you too." he whispered, tearing up at the thought of having to live without her, and having to return without her beside him.
It would have broken him.
