Love,
Kate Bishop x girlfriend!reader
summary: the thought of dating a hero sounds all fun in games, until they’re away fighting crime on your birthday. But knowing Kate, she always has something up her sleeve.
warnings: fluff! Reader is sad because Kate can’t be there for her birthday- or can she? 👀 implied smut at the end.
note: this originally was just going to be a very little something, but while making the moodboard- I got inspired! I’m new at writing, please be nice <3
Happy birthday Ria, you deserve all the good things. I love you so much, you’re the best 🫶 this one’s for you! @belovaskitkat
Your eyes blinked a few times, trying to register your surroundings. You stretched out in your and your girlfriend’s shared bed, a wide smile plastered on your face. Today was your birthday!
You rolled over a little too quickly to where your girlfriend usually would be laying, almost always still asleep. Kate never was and still isn’t a morning person.
The smile quickly faded as you noticed the empty and cold sheets.
“Oh yeah,” you said to yourself in a whisper, remembering her and Clint were on a mission today.
You felt the happiness and excitement in your chest quickly start to fade, until you noticed a little folded note on Kate’s pillow.
Quickly you snatched it up as you sat up in bed, rubbing your eyes more to adjust to the sunlight creeping through the curtains.
You unfolded the note, and began to read your girlfriend’s beautifully sloppy handwriting.
“Dear my love,
Happy birthday princess! I’m sorry I couldn’t be there to wake you up with kisses and pancakes. However, there’s a little something in the kitchen waiting for you!
- love, your dork.”
You were out of bed faster than you were done reading the darn note. Excitement filling you up again as you were running through your both shared apartment to the kitchen.
Lucky was quick to join in on the excitement, running along beside you as his tail went crazy.
You giggled at the cute dog, and stopped right as you got to the kitchen.
“Oh Lucky, look!” You were immediately in awe at the sight. Two big stuffed teddy bears sitting next to a beautiful cake on the kitchen table. Another folded note tucked into one of the arms of the bears.
Hand on your heart as you walked up to the table, tears forming quickly. Happy yet sad tears.
“I should call and thank her, shouldn’t I? Or do you think she’s in the middle of kicking ass?” You laughed, talking to Lucky as if he could answer you.
You shook away the idea, knowing Kate probably wouldn’t answer, and she’d be home tomorrow anyway.
Picking the note from the teddy bears arms as you admired them both with love in your eyes. You really do have the best girlfriend.
Your shifted towards the cake, taking your pointer finger while holding the note in the other hand, you lightly took some of the frosting off the side of the cake.
“Well- it is my cake,” you shrugged and popped the frosting into your mouth. The cake was just as delicious as it looked!
Pulling the note to your attention finally, you laughed immediately at the sight of Kate’s failed attempt at a heart on the face of the letter. You opened it and your eyes began to follow her writing yet again-
“Dear my beautiful girl,
Happy birthday, baby. I just wanted to remind you that you’re always loved by me. Even on your not so good days, bad days, and even worse days. The day I met you, that was when my life began. It will always start and end with you, y/n. I don’t exactly know who to thank for putting us on this big ball we call earth, for letting our paths cross at the right time. Maybe the stars? I’m not sure. But I’d never be able to thank them enough. You’re always the light I need, the soft place to land, and the one who always hears me when no one else does. You’re always enough. Always. I love you.
- love, your KitKat.”
You felt the warm tears fall onto your cheeks as you finished the letter, a soft cry of happiness leaving your lips.
Just as you were about to get your phone out to call Kate, even on the chance she won’t answer- you heard the front door open behind you.
Quickly you turned around ready to fight, but the person who came into eyesight made your arms and legs go weak.
“Hey birthday girl,” Kate said with a smirk on her face, a couple bags dangling in her hands. More gifts probably.
Immediately you ran to her, engulfing your girlfriend into probably one of your tightest shared hugs yet.
You attacked her face in kisses, Kate laughing and holding you just as tight in response.
“You’re! Here! You’re! Really! Here!” You said between kisses, giggling as the tears didn’t stop.
“Y/n, baby- I’m not about to be if you keep squeezing me so tight!” Kate laughed as you continued to spam her face in kisses yet loosened your grip eventually.
Finally you both shared a soft and tender kiss, Kate’s hands going to your hips as usual. Yours on her shoulders despite her being taller.
Pulling away Kate looked at you in adoration, “happy tears I hope?”
You nodded slightly as Kate whipped them away with her thumbs.
“Very happy. Thank you for my gifts, and my notes. And just- for being you Kate Bishop.” You said softly, the tears slowing as you took in the smell of her.
“Anything for you baby. Happy birthday,” Kate leaned in once more, but this time for a forehead kiss.
You leaned against her lips, “I love you.”
“I love you more,” Kate responded against your head.
“I love you most,” you smiled and closed your eyes. Your heart full. This birthday couldn’t get any better.
“What’re you doing home? Not that I’m complaining..” you pulled away looking up at her.
“Clint called me last night while you were sleeping, said the mission was off. I thought it’d be fun to surprise you,” Kate smirked.
“Ya know, I stopped by a little shop on the way home, got a few new little things I think my birthday girl would look good in.” Her hands suddenly tighter on your hips.
Okay.. maybe this birthday could get better after all.

↳ TUTOR!READER x KATE BISHOP + IDIOTS TO LOVERS // MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE
“You’re fifteen minutes late.”
Kate cringes, hurriedly placing the coffee carrier and her bag down and taking a seat next to yours in the study room.
“I know,” she says. “I’m so sorry, it’s just that there was this-”
-Explosion created by Russian mobsters who wear tracksuits and are surprisingly nice guys-
“-thing I had and it took a long time and I’m really sorry.”
She cringes again, before holding out one of the coffees in the tray.
“I got you coffee?”
There’s a skeptical slant to your brow as you gingerly take the cup from her. Kate’s heart pounds - not unrelated to her frantically running to get here, but also not unrelated to you - as you take a sip. A slow smile starts to stretch its way across your face, despite your efforts to tamp it down.
“You remembered my order.”
Oh my g-d you’re so pretty.
“I mean, yeah, it’s... it was whatever,” Kate tries for nonchalance. It lands somewhere left of panic.
“Alright, Bishop, I guess you’re forgiven. Try to get here on time next time though. I don’t think your chem grade can afford missing our sessions.”
Kate nods vigorously as you open the textbook.
She thinks that maybe her heart can’t afford to miss your sessions either.
