I love you 3000 (Tony Stark Fanfic)

Chapter 41: erased

Genevieve's POV
As our eyes meet, we both make the same shocked expression. He quickly shakes it off and jumps to his feet, "What are you doing here?" I take a few steps forward and he does the same, "I could ask you that question as well."

I decided to take a couple steps closer. "You shouldn't be here" he says with a stern voice. It is just a field, I'm not sure why he's making this seem so big. "And why is that?" I question, continuing to walk closer. Bucky runs a hand through his hair and lets out a frustrated sigh, "It doesn't matter, you just need to leave."

My feet don't stop taking me closer to him until we're only a few feet away. I feel his eyes burn into mine, they felt so unfamiliar and cold. His eyes didn't look the same in my dream, they were brighter. "I'm not leaving Buck" I stand my ground. He can't show up out of nowhere and boss my around.

He suddenly knees my in the stomach, sending me sharp pains. I pull him down into a head lock and flip him over me. We both get back up and start punching each other and hard and fast as we can. Bucky swiftly kicks my legs so I lose my balance and fall again. His metal hand grips my neck tightly as I fight for air.

We stare into each other's eyes as I slowly realize there's no way I'll win. My head begins to feel fuzzy and my vision gets blurry. I try to hold the eye contact with him despite how hard it is. I see his eyes soften as he realizes I'm slipping away. His hand quickly leaves my neck and I suck in as much air as I can.

Bucky gets off of me so I can roll over and try to catch my breath. I hold my chest and cough for a moment. Right when I get up I notice he's gone. Why would he let me go when he was so close to getting rid of me? Isn't that what he wants? For me to be gone?

I teleport to the outside to the compound. I'm not sure if anyone else has woken up yet so I don't want to have to explain where I just came from. I walk inside to see Tony watching cartoons with Wanda on the sofa. They both turn to me as I come in. "Where have you been? I woke up and you weren't there" Tony asks.

Keeping things from him isn't my favorite thing to do, I hate it. I just can't tell him about what happened, he wouldn't understand. "It felt like a good morning for a run" I lie. Him and Wanda exchange a look, "Didn't you just go out for one yesterday?" Stop with all the questions.

"Yes I did and I really enjoyed it. Running seems to help with everything going on lately so I thought I'd try it out a bit more" I strengthen my lie. Not only do I hate lying to Tony but I hate lying to Wanda. There's just not many other options that could end well.

They both nod their head and turn back to the TV, I let out a small sigh of relief. I sit beside Tony and lay my head on his shoulder. He wraps an arm around me and pulls me closer. I don't know what I did right in my life to get myself a family like this but I'm so happy I did.

It would all be better with Loki here though. I just can't believe he lied to me for so many years. It all felt so real that it's hard to comprehend that he didn't really love me. It makes me wish he never meant something to me but he did and I can't forget him.

The movie ends Tony carries Wanda up to bed with me behind him. He lays her down on her bed in the corner and we both craw into our own. I feel him hold my close to his chest as he plays with my hair. "You're so perfect" he whispers. A smile grow wide on my face, "There's no such thing. You're very close to it though" I whisper back.

I feel myself start to drift to sleep as his hand continues to stroke my head. A soft kiss is left on my forehead and both of our breathing slows. A dream begins to play immediately, one very close to the last. This time I look to be 15 and Bucky is around 21.

The dream:
Bucky and I are laying together in the same daisy field together. I'm crying into his chest as he holds me close and attempts to comfort me. "Shh it's all going to be okay sis" he whispers to me. I shake my head against his chest, I know it won't be okay. There's no way it can be.

"I'll never get out of here Buck. All I've ever wanted is to use my powers to save others. You know that's my dream. I can't do that when I'm locked into this family business and killing everyone" I sob. A part of me has always known that what my family does is bad but lately I've started to realize the extent of it all.

He pulls me away from his chest and holds my shoulders with his hands. He looks me in the eyes with a sad smile, "I'm going to get you out, I don't break my promises and you know that. I already have the plan set." I give him a confused look, "What are you going to do? There's no way mom and dad are gonna be okay with me leaving?"

He rubs my cheek softly, "Don't you worry about a thing. I've got it all under control. All that matters is that you're gonna get out of here." I nod my head and he wipes the tears from my face.

Bucky's POV in the dream:
I walk towards the door of my parents office and take it a deep breath. I take all the courage I have in me and knock on the door. "Come on in" I hear my mother yell from inside. I turn the handle and go in.

"What is it James? Shouldn't you and your sister be training right now?" my father questions. I gulp and nod my head, "Well I'm actually here to talk to you about her." They look at one another with a concerned expression. "She isn't refusing to do her training again right?" my mother asks.

I shake my head quickly, "No no no, that's not it at all. It's just that- she's 15 now. We all know how strong her feelings have been about the family business this year. I want her to live a normal life." My anxiety sky rockets as I finish my sentence. Both my parents cross their arms.

"We've told you both a thousand times that neither do you are aloud to leave. Why do you think I'll change my answer this time?" my dad raises an eyebrow at me. "Because this time I have a deal for you" I spit back immediately. A smirk comes across both of their faces, "And what is the deal you have in mind?"

I take in another deep breath, this is it. "I will take on any part that you need me to in this business and I will lead it the day you both are gone. I will never attempt to leave again. All you have to do is let her go." My heart beat grows faster as they look at each other.

"I don't know, your sister is very powerful. You don't have nearly the same powers" my mother defends. "But I know how to run this business. We would stay powerful for generations with me. I may not have her powers but I'm a super soldier and know how to fight" I throw back.

My parents nod their heads slowly and whisper to one another. "Done, you have your deal. On one condition" my mother states. I smile immediately, "I'll do anything you ask" I reply. A evil grin grows on my fathers face and I know immediately I'm not going to like this.

"You must erase her memory. We can't have her coming after us" he says. My heart drops as I realize what they mean but hope it's not to the extent I'm thinking. "How much do I erase?" I ask.

My fathers smile grows "Everything. She may only remember your mother and I along with Peter. Genevieve must think we have a busy business which is why we're never around. She can't remember you or the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy." I feel as though my heart was just torn into pieces, I just lost my sister. At least she will be safe.
