✔️The Summer Soldier ||Bucky Barnes||

33

The next few weeks were torturous for Harley. She felt like a burden to everyone else, especially Bucky. She felt like she was taking him away from his normal activities and what he enjoyed just so she didn't have a panic attack.

Harley had been trying to get back into training too, but Tony kept telling her that she had to be able to sleep for the full night before she could train again. Steve and Bucky were being very watchful of her too, knowing she could easily sneak away to the training room when no one was looking.

With no motivation to do anything else, Harley spent a lot of time in her room. Not doing much, just simply staring off and thinking, replaying everything in her head. But she was always dressed and ready for the day in case there was a surprise attack or something.

"What are we thinking about now?" Steve asked as he stood in the door frame of Harley's room.

Harley lifted her head and looked at Steve. Her eyes had bags under them along with darkened circles. "Take a guess." She said, leaning her head back against the bed frame.

Steve frowned a little bit and said "well Bucky and nat are training, Clint is with his family, Tony's with pepper, and Wanda is with vision so your going to get up and hangout with me."

Harley sighed and raised her eyebrow. It's not that she didn't want to spend time with Steve, she just didn't have the motivation to. "And what are we gonna go because you know Tony will freakout if I do any sort of training. Just hangout with pigeon." She said, crossing her arms.

Steve shook his head at Harley, going over to her bed and lifting her over his shoulder. "No can do. He's at one of his meeting groups." He said, carrying her away.

When Harley was set down, she noticed she was in the training room with Steve, nat, and Bucky. "Tony is going to shit himself if he finds out." Nat said with a small laugh.

Harley looked at her confused. "Finds out what?"

"That we are letting you train." Bucky said with a smirk. "You've gotta stay in shape if we need you."

Harley let out one of her first genuine smiles in weeks. "No way!" She said, "but what's the catch?"

The three of them shook their heads, signaling there was no catch. They liked seeing the happy spirits coming back to Harley, even though the two boys found it crazy how Harley used to hate physical activity, and now it's all she wants to do.

"Wait before we start, who the hell is vision?" Harley asked, remembering Steve saying something about Wanda being out with the so called vision.

Nat laughed and said "this robot that stark and banner built. It's being powered by the mind stone and is based off of Jarvis. Wandas got a thing for him."

Harley nodded a little bit. "Thing for the robot? Got it." She said with a small laugh, happy Wanda found some sort of happiness after all she's been through.

"Enough girl talk, can we just train.." Steve said with a small laugh, waving his arms.

The two girls nodded and focused back in training.

"Punch me as hard as you can." Bucky said to Harley, wanting to know what level she's at right now.

Harley looked at Bucky like he was crazy. "Buck, I'm not punching you." She said, Bucky just laughed at her.

"You could never hurt me. Well, probably but I know you would never mean to.. so just do it." Bucky said.

Harley nodded and punched Bucky in the chest, seeing him flinch the smaller bit after. "Ok ok, she's still extremely strong." He said, holding his chest.

With a smirk, Natasha looked to Steve and said "ok let her punch you now."

Steve frantically shook his head. He didn't want to get punched by a hydra
Super soldier, especially if it was Harley since she has natural strength. "I'll sit out on the offer, thanks."

Ignoring the small conversation between Steve and nat, Harley went towards the gym equipment and jumped up onto the pull up bar. She began to do pull ups, her body weight feeling a bit heavier since she hasn't done physical activity in weeks.

Once Harley was finished doing her pull ups, she jumped down from the pull up bar and started to feel very nauseous. "Har you ok?" Bucky asked, seeing Harley's face go from its normal peachy color to a pale color within seconds.

"I- um yeah I'll be back." She said speed walking out of the training room and back to her own.

Just as Harley walked into the bathroom, she felt like she was about to throw up. Running to the toilet, Harley lifted the seat and leaned over and began to throw up.

"What was that about?" Bucky asked, totally confused on whatever had just happened. "Should I check in her or..?"

The two boys were normally experts on how to handle Harley, but it was rare for her to be sick, and when she was she would tell them to stay away before they got sick too.

Nat shrugged and said "no, I'll try to talk to her. You two stay here and try not to break anything, or each other."

Steve and Bucky nodded and watched as nat left the room and went to harleys. She could hear Harley throwing up in the bathroom as she walked to the bathroom door, slowly opening it.

Shutting it behind her, nat stood behind Harley and quickly tied her hair back with an extra hair tie. "What's up?" She asked, kneeling down beside Harley.

"I wish I knew." Harley said, "I just all of the sudden felt like shit."

Nat nodded and tried to think of things that could've caused this. She knew Harley hadn't eaten in a while so it couldn't be that, and nothing else really made sense besides one thing...
