I watched in fear as Steve jumped over the explosions, praying that I could hold them off long enough and reminding myself to breath. When he landed safely, I grabbed hold of him and never wanted to let him go again. We stood like that for what felt like forever, with my head on his chest before Bucky interrupted.
"As cute as the both of you are, we really need to get out of here before we go up in flames with the rest of this place."
The three of us ran as fast as we could as the building started to fall down around us. Just as we made it clear of the building there was a massive explosion, sending us flying into the clearing where the rest of the men were waiting.
"Holly shit, we could have still been in there," Bucky said we watched the building go up in flames.
"You guys made it out alive," Gab yelled he and the rest of my little cell group ran over to us to help us up.
Jacques was talking so fast in French, saying what I assumed from the look on his face was that he was happy to see us as Falsworth helped me to my feet. I looked over to see Dum Dum and Jim do the same with Steve and Bucky. I looked around the group around us, looking for one face in particular when I felt someone pick me up off my feet and spin me around.
"Y'all made it out alive. Now don't ever do anythin' like that again," my Pa told me as he placed me back down on the ground.
"Whatever you say Pa," I said sarcastically, but as I looked over at Steve, I could see that he was trying to not laugh as Bucky looked on very confused. I watched as Bucky asked Steve what was so funny and Steve telling him later with a small smile my face before calling them over to meet my Pa.
"Steve, Bucky, come over here. I need to introduce you to someone."
"Wait you know that Captain America guy," Pa asked looking very confused.
"I'm engaged to that Captain America guy," I told him as Steve and Bucky made their way over to us.
"Wait, your Steve. As in the Steve that Kimberly told me about."
"The one and the same," Steve told him as he walked over to me and put his arm around my shoulders.
"Steve, Bucky, this is Captain Tommy Bentley. And Tommy, this is Captain Steve Rogers and Sargent James Buchanan Barnes or as he prefers to be called, Bucky."
I watched as the men shook hands and introduced themselves, happy that Steve actually had the chance to meet a member of my family. Even if they didn't know it.
"You know Kimmy, when your with Tommy you're accent gets stronger. It's like the first day I met you," Bucky told me as we headed back over to the rest of the group.
"Well, James. I need to pick my accent back up. Cause there ain't no way I'm gonna walk around talkin' like a Yankee for the rest of my life," I joke, purposely making my southern accent comically strong.
