She's Not My Type

(11) Her Past Collides With The Present

1 month later

Daria was in Paris, it was the first of many fashion weeks that she was walking in. Bucky was in the middle of play off season. 

The Jets had made it past the first round of playoffs. Clint had come over to Bucky's apartment with a bunch of folders and his laptop. 

"There is a thing called a bag Barton." Bucky said as he handed him a beer. 

"I know that." He said 

Clint set up everything as he opened the beer. 

"So I've done a lot of digging, and a lot of contacting people. And this is what I've found on Daria's past. You may want to sit down." Clint said 

"Okay is it that bad?" Bucky said 

"Well no not necessarily. But let's just say that her past collides with present day." Clint said 

"Okay." He said 

"Meet Gabriel Hudson..a 35 year old Italian business mogul. He is her ex fiancé.." Clint said 

"Did you just say 35? What the hell is she doing with an older man? That's just asking for problems." Bucky said 

"Yeah to say the least." Clint said 

"According to Mira, they met at a party when he attended one of many designer dinner parties. She believes it was the Hugo Boss party. Anyways he flirted and charmed his way into a date with her this happened five years ago." Clint said 

He handed Bucky some photos that Mira had from the party. As Bucky went through them Clint got them some bourbon and poured them shots. 

"At that time Daria didn't know he was a well known play boy. She was 23 a college graduate working as a full time model now that she was done with college. And he sunk his teeth into her and treated her like gold. All while behind her back he was cheating on her with anyone he could get his hands on." Clint said

"Oh Daria.." Bucky whispered 

"Now, this is where I said things collided. According to police reports..Daria had been away on a modeling job. The job ended two days early so she wanted to surprise him. She came home to find him in bed with two women three years ago. A red head and a blonde.." Clint said 

Bucky dropped his shot glass and Clint caught it. "According to reports he put her in the hospital for a couple of days. After she started screaming at him in Italian French and Russian. He snapped and assaulted her. She called off the engagement and her brothers moved her back home. But it seems to me you being seen with two women a blonde and red head may have triggered some bad memories for her." He said 

Bucky looked down. "Thanks Clint.." he said as he grabbed his bourbon bottle and went out on the balcony of his apartment. 

He laid down on the hammock and took a drink. "I do have one more thing. I found her..she's in Paris. That's where she's been staying." Clint said 

"Thanks Clint." He said 

"Welcome." Clint said as he left. 

Bucky wiped tears as he begin to break. He curled up into a ball and cried till he fell asleep.
