Y/n POV

After the movie, me, Steve, and Bucky got up and out of our chairs. We walked out of the theater and down to the street. It was dark now, it smelled like rain. I rapped my coat tight to my chest. The walk was still silent, not even Steve was making small talk to me or Bucky.

"Why" Bucky asked breaking the silence, me and Steve looked up from the ground,

"Why what" I asked

"Why will you not even think about my idea, is it your dad? Are you scared?"

"No"

"Well then what is it?!" Bucky raised his voice at me, which was something he never did. I was silent, Steve looked at me, expecting me to answer.

"I asked you a question," Bucky raised his voice more,

"It's you!" I yelled, "if you get hurt out there, and I'm not there, that I can handle, but if I'm there and you die in MY hands I would never forgive myself, because I could have saved you."

Bucky's eyes turned sad, he didn't say anything and let me continue,

"That, and it was hard enough reading on a piece of paper that my dad was dead. So if I'm in the same environment as you, and you die, I have to watch that. I have to see you die. And just my luck, I probably will."

"But i promised you-"

I cut him off, "a promise is just a bunch of words, they don't mean anything. You can promise that you won't tell someone your secret but, you can't promise you won't freaking die. You're just getting people's hopes up for no reason."

Bucky slowly nodded his head, I knew I was yelling at him, making him feel bad. But I was just so done, I had lost almost everyone but Bucky, and I knew I was going to.

"I already lost my dad Bucky, and that hurt, I know you hurt from it too, because you knew him just as much as I did. Having to hear that someone you loved die is so incredibly hard, especially from a General stationed in, god knows where, but if I lost you, and I could have saved you that's a whole different kind of hurt. And I can't let that happen. Because I love you."

He looked up from his shoes to meet my face, his eyes started to fill with tears, I ran into his arms. I didn't want to be with him, because I loved him.

Because I loved him.
