Abi's P.O.V.

The arrow soared through the air and hit the target right in the middle of the bullseye.

"Beginners luck?" I said with a grin.

He pulled two more arrows from his quiver, one after the other, and hit them in the middle of the bullseye too.

"You've still got it." I said.

"Damn right I do." He said, a big smile on his face.

He pulled me close, pressing a kiss on my lips.

"Your shoulder is back to normal I see." Steve said from behind me.

I pulled away from Clint and turned to Steve with a big smile on my face.

"He hit them all first time, well first, second and third time. But he didn't even practise!" I said proudly.

"I'll tell Fury, you'll be back on missions as soon as we get our next one." Steve said to Clint.

"Thanks Steve, well I'm going to go tell the others, I'll be back in a minute." Clint said before leaving.

"Steve what are you doing on Saturday?" I asked.

"I don't have anything planned, why?" He asked.

"Will you come Christmas shopping with me? I don't want to take Clint in case he sees what I get for him." I said.

"Of course, I still need to buy presents anyway." He said.

"Great, thank you!" I said.

"How about a spar?" He asked with a grin.

"You're on." I said as I started to wrap my hands.

I climbed into the ring after him and we each did our own warm up before getting into a stance.

"You ready?" I asked.

"Lets go." He said.

He started throwing punches and kicks my way, I managed to dodge most of them but he managed to land a few of his kicks on my legs, the last sweeping me off my feet. I jumped back to my feet and started a counter attack, landing a few of my own shots to his body and one to his jaw. We continued fighting until he pinned me to the floor and I tapped out, a grin on my face as I was breathing hard.

"I believe that's 1-1." I said with a smile.

"That's right." He said as he helped me up.

"Have you spoken to Fury about me?" I asked.

"I have, and he agrees that you will be a great addition as soon as you are in full control. We can't have any mess ups in the field, it is too risky. When do you start your training with Bruce and Clint again?" He asked.

"I'm not sure, I know Bruce and Tony are trying to work on some tech to help me control my powers. But I don't really know how that's coming along either, I'll find out later." I said, making a mental note to talk to Bruce.

"Let me know what they say." Steve said just as Clint walked back in.

We all worked out together, Clint lifting weights whilst Steve and I worked on the bags and with the pads. After what seemed like only half an hour, Steve started unwrapping his hands.

"Oh come on super soldier, we've only been working out for like half an hour." I said.

"Abi, it's 6pm, we've been working for an hour and a half, and I'm hungry." He said.

"What?" I said.

"You really need to work on your concept of time." Clint said with a grin.

I threw my sweaty towel at him and he shut up, throwing the towel into the pile with the other ones.
