You look down and see your bra straight through the t-shirt. Your face turns bright red.
"Pancakes?" Steve asks, looking up, seeing through your shirt. He immediately looks back down, his face beat red.
"Yeah. Sure!" You say, breaking the awkward silence.
"Cool. Lemme just grab a couple of plates." Steve opens the cabinet above him and grabs two off-white plates.
He takes the spatula and flips a couple of pancakes on a plate. He grabs syrup from the fridge and slides it on the counter.
"Help yourself to the syrup." He tells you, as he hands you the plate.
"Thanks." You say.
You take the plate a drizzle a little bit of syrup on your pancakes and scarf them down so you can get ready for work. You head to 'your' room to get ready but Steve stops you, "What do you think you're doing?"
"Getting ready for work. Why?" You state
"You're not going to work. Not for a week." Steve orders.
"I- You can't do that!" You object.
"I can because Fury ordered it. So, you're not going to work."
You moan and walk over to the chair. You plop into the chair, annoyed with Steve. Steve goes to the bathroom and gets dressed. He walks out of the bathroom in a pair of dark blue jeans and a blue and white plaid shirt. He walks to the door and shrugs on his brown leather jacket.
"I'll be back later. Don't do anything stupid."
"I won't. God, do you really think so little of me?"
He smirks and walks out the door. You hear the lock click, meaning he locked the apartment. You get up and walk around, bored. You go to 'your' room and debate whether to put on your suit just for fun. You don't. You walk back out and look on the bookshelf.
"It feels weird to be in someone's apartment without them being here with me." You mumble as you read the back of a book you pulled off the shelf.
You put the book back and turn to the window. You see a flash of red. You squint. The Winter Soldier's arm. You run out of the apartment and run to where you saw his arm. Nothing. You look around and see a man running away. You run after him. The sun rises over the buildings, blinding you. You continue to run after him and he takes a sharp turn left. You follow and run into a person.
"Sorry!" You yell behind you.
You catch up to him after a couple more turns and a bit of pain from tripping. You tackle him down onto the wet cold ground. You try to keep him down, but he grabs your neck. Metal arm.
"Bucky-" You manage to get out.
He is taken back by this and rips his hand from your throat. You fall to the ground on your feet, and lose your balance; you trip backward and hit your head on the brick wall. You quickly hop up, but you get a head rush and the world starts spinning. You manage to get your balance back and run at Bucky.
"Listen, I am not in the mood for this!" You shout.
You fling a punch at his head. He falls toward you. He falls on top of you. You try to push him off but he grabs your throat again. You feel the water on the ground soak through your shirt and send chills up your spine. You grab his arm, trying to stop him, but fail. Suddenly you can hear Steve's voice yell, "Get off her, Buck!"
He runs at him and rips him off you. You gasp for air and turn over onto all fours, like in the first fight. Steve corners the Winter Soldier.
