Bucky's POV
I helped her to her bedroom where I laid her on the bed. I pulled the covers over her body ensuring that her arm was cover. So hopefully she would be able to sleep.
"Kay, I'm here for you. I know how hard it is to get use to. But I'll be here every step of the way."
I was given a slight nod and I kissed her on the forehead so that she knew I was being serious.
I shut the door behind me and walked into the communal living room of the stark tower.
"How is she?" Steve began to ask as he sat on the couch.
"Not good. She hates it. It's gonna be hard. She will have to learn to love herself again before she gets use to actually using it"
"She has you, she'll get through it"
I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge a walked to my room which was next to Kaydens.
As I sat there is silence for a little while I heard moaning and small whimpers coming from Kaydens room. I got up off my bed and headed to her door.
I opened the door to see her still asleep. Covers thrown on the floor. Hair all over her face. And once again trying to scratch the arm of herself.
She began to scream and suddenly try to yank the metal from her shoulder.
She is having a nightmare, I thought to myself.
I slowly made my way to the bed so that I didn't scare her. I slowly grabbed her shoulder so that she was now wrestling with my hands.
"Kay, wake up darling."
Nothing. She just continued to scream and wrestle with my hands.
"Doll, wake up darling!"
She suddenly sat up shivering from her glistening sweat. She looked at me with sadness in her eyes. She began to sob.
"What happen doll? Do you want to talk about it?"
I moved closer to her and shifted her body around so that she was facing me. Then I rested her head on my flesh shoulder.
"What monster am I?"
"No you are no monster Doll. You are just broken. You were kidnapped and brainwashed by other people. They did this to you, you are not a monster."
She lifted her head so that she could see my face then slowly placed her forehead back on my chest.
"How about I show you around and introduce you to everyone, hey Doll?!"
I toke her hand and helped her off the bed leading her out into the tower.
It was going to take a while. But she is going to be ok. She has me and all the avengers to help her out. She is in better hands now than she was with HYDRA.
