no body, no crime (Steve / Bucky x Reader)

part 20

I woke up early this morning while Steve was still sleeping, i had a cup of coffee and decided to take a small walk around the forest that lead all around the lake. It was cold but i didn't let that stop me, i locked the door and left.

As i was walking i remember that i have powers... it sounds weird but sometimes i forget about them.
Might be because when i am around Steve i don't get reminded of them that often. To him i am much more than just these powers.
I haven't used them in a while and now that we are alone in this place, why not get better at using them?

I wanna start seeing them as my strength and not my weakness, so i start stacking stones on top of each other using just my brain.
It was fun, i felt like little kid.
I was about to start walking back when i saw a little injured cat on the side of the road, she was covered in blood so i carried her away from the road and laid her down.

I softly pressed my fingers on her broken bleeding paw and tried healing it.
I didn't take me 2 seconds and the cat started running off again. I couldn't stop smiling and walked back into the house.

"WHERE WERE YOU?" Steve shouts from upstairs.
"I- I was out for a walk" i mutter

"Oh my god Y/N... You had me all worried. I thought something happened." Steve ran downstairs and gave me a big hug.
We both calm down and sat down at the kitchen table,
"Steve, i want you to work out with me. Practice with me, i don't want to hide from the world. I need to start seeing me and my powers as strengen. I just saved a cat! A dying cat!"
I was very emotional and tried explaining to Steve why i need this but he just stared at me and smiled.

"I would love to practice with you but promise me you won't apologize if you ever accidentally hurt me." Steve was visibly happy about what i said, he is such a good guy.

I nod and keep drinking my coffee. My soul was happy.

Steve got up and before he left, he said "Practice starts in 30 minutes, little girl.
Be ready"
My eyes opened up wide.. 30 MINUTES??
This man will be the death for me.

I ran upstairs and put on my suit and boots, i put my hair in a bun and was ready.
I walked outside to the lake and sat down on the cold ground.
"Alright. Lets start, how about we go through every power and do an exercise to it?"
Steve was wearing grey sweatpants and a white tshirt, i wish i could say i wasn't distracted by his looks but that would be a lie.

I nod, "Ok healing." Steve grabs a pocket knife out of his pocket and rams it through his thigh.
For a second i couldn't move my whole body out of shock but then i ran towards him when i felt conscious again and he was already laying on the ground.

There was blood all over him, i pulled out the knife and pressed my whole body weight on his wound.
My hand was soaked in blood and i couldn't stop looking at it, my eyes started watering and Steve just got up like nothing happened.

"Good job", he winks at me "Now to the next step."
My head couldn't comprehend what just happened, i threw the knife in the lake and washed Steves blood off my hands.
My feet were trembling but i managed to walk back to Steve who was just enjoying the view.

"You crazy fucker" I shout at him as my hand slaps right across his face. "THAT was terrible? You could have died you sick fuck"

"No i couldn't. Because i knew you would heal me, Y/N you need to learn to use your power in stress situations and you did amazing." Steves voice was calming but i really felt the urge to kick him in the balls.
I turned around without saying anything and cried into my hands.
"Y/N nooooo. Please no! I am sorry. Ok i know that was too much. I will never do it again! Pinky promise!"
