I love you 3000 (Tony Stark Fanfic)

Chapter 40: daisy

Genevieve's POV
I wake up with my heart racing and my mind buzzing all over the place. Tony felt my body jolt up and immediately sat up beside me, "What's going on.. are you alright?" I take a deep breath and nod my head quickly. Once my breathing slowed, I lasted back down and motioned for him to do the same. He double checked that I was alright and then his snoring followed soon after.

I lay awake thinking of the dream that had woken me up. There was a giant field of daises only a mile or so away from my childhood home. Laying in the middle was Bucky and I years ago, we looked to be about  8 and 14 at the time. The sun was slowly setting as we watched it together in silence.

The dream:
"Bucky, I don't think I like what mommy and daddy make us do" I whisper to him. He interlocks his hand in mine and rubs it with his thumb slowly, "I know you don't sis, neither do I. We don't have any other choice." Warm tears fill my eyes and I fight against blinking. He has seen me cry but I've always been told it makes me weaker.

"One day I will get away from all of this. I'll fix what they mommy and daddy have done. I will make it up to everyone we've had to hurt" I murmur. Bucky smiles sadly and nods his head slowly, "Yes you will, I promise. I will do anything that I have to do to make sure that dream comes true."

My eyes couldn't hold back any longer as a few tear drops roll down my face. Bucky turns his body to me to wipe my tears with his other arm. He sits the both of us up and holds me tightly, I notice him pick a daisy out of the field. Bucky hands it to me and kisses my forehead, "What do you think about this flower?"

I look up and him, confused by the question. "Well.. I think it's very pretty Buck" I return my attention to the flower. He grabs the end of the flower and snaps it in half, "What about now?" The flower petals still looked the same, it was just harder to hold now that it wasn't as long. "It's still a very pretty flower" I say confidently.

He placed it back in the field with the rest and nods his head, "Exactly. It's still pretty even after being broken. It didn't allow me to take its beauty from it, but it could have" I don't understand what he meant to say with the flower, it's very confusing. I decide to stay in silence and enjoy the sunset instead of asking questions.

I feel myself slowly slip into a deep sleep and the sun gets farther away from me. Bucky plays with my hair gently and continues to hold me. "You're my daisy, Genevieve. You've had to go through so much for as long as you can remember. None of this is fair to either of us. Through it all, you still manage to stay beautiful and loving. I aspire to be you" he whispers. It's the last word I hear him say before I fall asleep.
Dream over

I completely forgot about the field of daisies. Him and I used to go there every chance that we got to have some sibling time. It gave us both a chance to escape from our parents and the jobs they gave us. They've trained us for Hydra since the day we could walk, it's why they had us in the first place. I still remember the exact place where the field was.

After a few hours of laying in bed thinking about the memories I used to have with my brother I decide to just get up. I sneak out quietly to avoid waking Tony up, he really deserves this sleep. He stays up most nights trying to take care of Wanda and I. I tiptoe to my dresser and grab an outfit for the day. After changing in the bathroom I sneak down to the kitchen and pour myself a cup of coffee.

I sit down at the table and sip on my coffee as the thought of Bucky doesn't leave my mind. That dream brought me more memories than I think I realized. I've been so focused on losing Loki that I didn't even think about everything else that happened that day. I'm curious why dreams like this are just now starting. Maybe it's a sign?

I look at the clock, it's only 5am. I might be able to teleport over to the field for a bit to get the thought out of my mind. I'd easily be back before anyone else woke up and noticed I wasn't here. No, I shouldn't. It was just a dream, no need to get all worked up about it. Who am I kidding, I gotta go. No one will be hurt wether or not I go so I might as well give it a go. Anything to not have another dream like this.

I focus on the field, imagining it directly in front of me. A moment later I feel the floor under me change. I open my eyes and see myself standing by a field of daisy's. A proud smile creeps up on my face, my aiming was pretty good. I look down at all the flowers by my feet, they're as pretty as they were in my dreams. My eyes start to look across the field when I notice something in the middle, a man laying on his back. What the hell?

I take a few steps closer, is this just a place people go to regularly nowadays? I stare intensely at the man before his head slowly lifts up and turns to me. The second our eyes met, I knew how bad this could be. Laying in the middle of a daisy field was my brother.
