Sambucky - Figuring out feelings: Book 1, 2 And 3

Chapter 4: Tussle

Darkness. Voices. Confusion. Then peace. 

Bucky woke up to a pounding in his head and the sun streaming into his room through the blinds. He turned his head slightly and spotted Sam sitting across the room. Sam noticed his eyes were open and-

'How long have I been out for?'

'How're you feeling?' 

They both stopped. 

'Sorry you go first' 

'You go' 

Sam laughed a small, empty laugh. 'no you go Bucky' Bucky attempted to sit up. 

'How long have I been out for?' 

Sam took a second to respond. 'Roughly 16 hours' 

Bucky gave a small gasp. 'But… The mission?' Sam stood up and walked over. 

'Ya that probably won't be going ahead anytime soon' he sat at the end of the bed. That's when Bucky looked around his surroundings. He noted a window covered by blinds, a chair and a door. Simple. It was clear it was a hospital ward. 

'Are you hurt?' 

Sam sucked in a breath. Even when Bucky was really hurt he still always checked up on Sam. 

'Not like you' 

Bucky sat up fully wincing. Sam rushed to help him. Bucky thought for a second. 

'Sam… We didn't stop it, did we…' 

It wasn't a question. 

Sam sighed and patted Bucky's leg. 'It was much stronger than we anticipated… And we still don't know what exactly it wants' Sam looked down. Bucky kicked off his covers. 

'Wait what are yo-' 

'I need to get out of here. We have to go back to the facility and tell them all we know about it' 

Sam pushed Bucky back down gently and sighed. Bucky struggled to sit back up. 

'First of all you're a bit too injured… Surprising isn't it? And second of all I've told Rhodey everything so far! We don't have anything!' 

Bucky attempted to push Sam away but for some reason Sam was stronger. Bucky was not used to being weaker. But Bucky kept struggling to sit up. Sam looked down at him sadly. 

' Bucky just sto-'

' Shut up Wilson! We have to go now!'

Sam knew Bucky wasn't really angry at him (it was mostly about his injury) but he had just got used to 'nice Bucky' so it kind of hurt. 

'Cmon! Now let me up!' 

Sam sighed and calmly replied. 

'No' 

Bucky lost it. He roared like a child and attempted to hit Sam in the face but Sam grabbed his arm, twisted it and shoved him back down. 'Owww' 

'If you continue that I'll have to taze you' 

Bucky's eyes widened. 

'What?!' 

'Rhodeys orders' 

Bucky shook his head and continued his attempts to sit up. He couldn't leave the mission. Even if they didn't exactly know what the…. Machine wanted it was still extremely dangerous and needed attention. This time Sam didn't even bother being gentle. He grabbed Bucky's shoulders and pinned him down. 

Bucky struggled and fought Sam. Sam shoved him hard and spoke through gritted teeth. 

'I may not want to taze you but I will if I have to' 

Bucky at last slumped and turned his head away, ignoring Sam. 

Sam stood and looked back at Bucky over his shoulder as he left. Bucky's back was to him. 

Things had again changed. 

So...

This chapter was verrry lazy and short. Since it was so short I will publish a second chapter today. I hope you are enjoying the story so far. But I warn you the writing gradually gets worse... So... Be warned!

Stay safe :)
