As Juliet was shoved into the truck, she couldn't help but feel sorry for Steve, for everyone really. His best friend he thought was dead, was here, she could've protected Natasha and stopped her from getting shot, she could've tried to help Sam, she felt terrible.
"He looked right at me, like he didn't even know me" Steve said, staring at his feet
"How is that even possible?" Sam asked, "It was like, seventy years ago"
"Zola" Juliet whispered quietly, loud enough that only Steve who was next to her could hear it
"Bucky's whole unit was captured in '43. Zola experimented on him. Whatever he did, helped Bucky survive the fall. They must've found him and.."
"None of that's your fault Steve" Natasha spoke, making Juliet nod in agreement
"Even when I had nothing I had Bucky"
Juliet placed a hand on his arm as a form of reassurance, a sad smile resting on her face before it dropped
Natasha leaned her head back, taking a deep breath.
"We need to get a doctor here. If we don't put pressure on that wound she's gonna bleed out here in the truck" Sam told the guards, the one guard looked at him before knocking out the other guard.
"Ah. That thing was squeezing my brain" Maria Hill answered, taking the helmet off
Juliet shook her head slightly, "Maria? Wow didn't see that coming"
"Yeah I'm sure your brother will say the same after all this" Maria joked with her, making Juliet's eyes widen before Maria turned to the others
"Who is this guy?" She asked, referring to Sam.
-----------------------------------------------
As they left the truck, Juliet couldn't help but pondering on what Maria said. She knew she was joking but what would Tony say when he sees Juliet again? Would he even care? Would he tell her why it was bad she went with Steve and argue?
Juliet wrapped an arm around Natasha, keeping her upright while they walked
"She's lost a pint" Maria yelled, Sam quickly adding in "Maybe two"
"Let me take her" someone called out
"She'll want to see him first" Maria replied,
They walked into a room and before they was Nick, laying in bed. All of them shared a confused look as Nick spoke
"About damn time"
As Nick explained everything wrong and explained how he "died" Juliet stood off to the side, thinking about anything and everything.
