Okay this is the Avengers traveling round the world. Not for SHIELD, just because they're bad ass. Enjoy and please review ideas of places they can visit and things to do! I'd love to stay and chat but I have a fan fiction to start!

Bruce knew that Tony was excited about something ever since last week when Tony locked himself and Pepper in one of the numerous studies and requested absolute privacy. They had come out, Pepper irritated and Tony positively bouncing off the walls. Now Tony had called a meeting and Bruce was sat, reading a book, on the sofa. Steve was reading a car magazine (his new passion) and Thor was playing Flappy Bird. Natasha and Clint were comparing fighting techniques on the floor. Natasha would whack Clint on the arm and Clint would retaliate with a swift kick.

Finally Tony came in, beaming. "Avengers! Loyal friends! Amazing superheroes! I have a proposition!"

"What is it?" Natasha frowned. "Last time you suggested installing a swimming pool so and I quote 'maybe we and you, Nat, could go skinny-dipping'."

"My arm still hurts." Tony pouted.

"It was three weeks ago, Stark, don't be a wimp." Clint backed up his best friend. Natasha grinned at him.

"Anyway we are doing a gap year!"

"What's a gap year?" Steve and Thor chorused.

"Uh, a gap year is when people take a year out of college or university to travel round the world." Pepper explained. "Tony, here, is suggesting that you six go traveling. He invited me but I declined because I would rather personally burn my wardrobe than go traveling for a year or two with Tony and no offense, you lot."

"Some offense taken." Bruce said.

"This gap year sounds interesting." Steve mulled over it then smiled. "I want to do it!"

"It should be okay." Natasha shrugged.

"I could get laid in every country!" Clint said enthusiastically.

"Let us go!" Thor boomed.

"The sight-seeing would be phenomenal. We could visit the wonders of the world, rainforests, go trekking through deserts, live in Indian slums..." Bruce said.

Tony stared at him. "Uh."

"What?"

"I think Tony was more thinking of drinking in Greece and seducing English women than sight-seeing and trekking." Pepper smirked then stretched. "I'll go book the first flight. To?"

"I'm not sure. Any requests?" Tony asked.

Natasha raised her hand. "As the only girl on this trip, may I have the first country?"

"Girl?" Clint said. Natasha nudged him and he fell over.

"England." Natasha said. "London. We could go to Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and I really like the accent."

"English birds are the best." Clint said.

"When have you ever been to England?" Natasha replied with a frown. "In all the time I've known you..."

"Both sexually and as 'partners'," Tony interrupted.

"Dude. Nothing sexual between me and Spider here." Clint told him. Natasha grunted as confirmation then continued.

"We have NEVER been to England."

"Yeah but-"

"No, Hawk butt."

"Eye."

"Aye? Is that agreement of the trip?" Tony said then looked at Bruce. "Brucie?"

"Sure. Aye."

"Thor?"

"Fun!"

"I'll take that as a yes. Stevie, darling?"

Steve flushed. "Yes."

"Ooh, now I think Tony and Stevie darling have known each other sexually." Clint winked. "Donned some tight leather pants and gone to Steve's room late at night, eh, Stark?"

"Shut up, Barton."

"That's not denial."

"You didn't deny the fact that I saw you creep into Natasha's room yesterday and came out with a very happy smile."

"You didn't see that."

"I did."

"Stark..."

"Yes?"

"JARVIS do I have permission to murder him?"

"I'm not sure-"

"Don't bring JARVIS into this."

"Why? New boyfriend?"

"Ha, he should be so lucky."

"Dating a robot wouldn't be the worst sexual escapade you've ever done. May I mention uh Janice?"

"You may not."

"Who's Janice?"

"Stay out of this, Stevie."

"Ooh Stevie!"

Tony glared at Clint and Clint innocently smiled back.

"The sexual tension between you two." Thor shook his head and gave a loud laugh.

"Thor!" Bruce told him off. "Language!"

"Ooh Thor baby!" Clint squealed. Tony laughed softly and with a glance at each other, Tony and Clint forgave each other.

"This should be fun." Natasha sighed.
