Steve POV


"Steve what did I tell you about leaving Harper alone?" Tony said

We walked down the hallway,

"I'm meaning no harm I just simply want to get to know her," I said

"Well stop getting to know her," Tony said making air quotes with his fingers

"She's got too much to worry about and doesn't need to add a super solider to her list," Tony said

"What's that supposed to mean?" I said looking at him

"Exactly what I said," Tony said

"Then tell me why she always looks so sad and withdrawn?" I asked

He looked at me stunned,

"You seen that?" He said surprised

"It's kind of hard not to," I said

"So what happened?" I asked

"It's not my place to say," Tony said

"Now take my advice and leaver her alone," Tony said with that he walked off,

Like hell I am, how can anyone leave someone like her alone, she's so captivating, beautiful, smart, I feel myself drawn to her,


Harper POV

Bucky was on the table sitting Bruce was out, I was addressing his deep cut above his eyebrow, Sam was standing in the door way, I just got introduced to them since they rushed in saying if I could fix him up since Bruce was out,

Bucky was on the table sitting Bruce was out, I was addressing his deep cut above his eyebrow, Sam was standing in the door way, I just got introduced to them since they rushed in saying if I could fix him up since Bruce was out,

I had purple exam gloves on while I dabbed the deep cut making him wince,

"Sorry," I said

"Don't worry about it, Barnes can handle a boo boo," Sam said

"Shut up!" Bucky yelled

I placed the butterfly bandages on it gently, after stitching it,

"How did this happen again?" I asked

"Training," Bucky said

"Must be some training if you get hurt like this," I said

"It's nothing Sugar plumb," Bucky said

I nodded,

I heard someone clear their throat,

I look over my shoulder to see Steve,

"I'll be right with you once I finish," I said blankly

"Take your time," He said smiling,

Bucky and Sam exchange looks,

I dabbed the wound cleaning it up after it was all stitched up and bandaged,

"That should do it," I said throwing the contents in the trash and taking off my gloves,

"Thank you sweet cheeks," Sam said

I nodded,

Bucky placed his hand on Steve's shoulder and whispered something then they left,

"I got you a crescent and some coffee," He said smiling at me,

"You know you don't always have to get me something," I said sitting down at my desk after washing my hands,

"Yeah I know but I want to, besides it looks like you need it," He said

I smiled at him sadly

"Thank you," I said

"You welcome don't work too hard, they say stress is killer," He said patting my knee,

He got up and walked out,

"You have know idea," I mumbled looking down at my phone at all the messages my dad was leaving me,

They were full of hate, and anger, well more like full blown rage since I cut them off they haven't stopped calling or texting me, and it's taking it's toll on me,

I sat back in my chair and looked up at the ceiling,

"Hey Harp can you-" But Tony stopped looking at me

"What's wrong?" He asked

"Nothing," I said

"Don't do that, I know something's wrong," He said

I sighed and simply just handed him my phone not wanting to read the messages out loud,

"Maybe I should just give them what they want," I mumbled

"Not happening," He said sounding angry,

"That's just what they want you too do," He said

"I'll take care of this," He said

"Tony," I said

He looked at me,

"Why are you helping me with this, you do know I can handle this," I said motioning to the phone,

"I know that, but I can see what it's doing to you, and I'll be damned if I just sit by and do nothing," He said walking out,

I buried my face in my hands,

"What a mess," I mumbled
