Mellifluous | Bucky Barnes ✔

Ｔｈｉｒｔｅｅｎ

After the fight, Arabella wanted to call it quits, not only was she mentaly unstable but she was also completely fucked up to the core. Zemo had escaped, and now apparently Karli had gone after Sarah, Sam’s sister. Arabella being the smart brain came up with an excuse to leave.

“Sam,” Arabella’s voice cut him off from the call with his sister, “I could go pick your sister and nephews up and take them to my base.”

The suggestion was really tempting for not only Sam, who wanted the safety of his nephew but also for Bucky, who wanted Arabella as far away from the fight as she could be. After Sam agreed with Arabella’s plan, She made her way to the airport where a plane was already waiting for her.

During the whole flight Arabella couldn't stop thinking about the most recent events, from meeting Bucky and Sam to getting shot by a boy no older than twenty three years old. How her life went from zero excitement and adrenaline to a hundred percent thrill.

What would have changed if she hadn’t met Steve?

Firstly, she most likely wouldn’t have met Sam.

She also wouldn’t have gotten into the mess of the Flag Smashers.

She would also have one less heart break.

She wouldn’t have met Bucky.

Her mind stopped working, at the moment she realized that every choice she took led her to Bucky. The man she has become almost obsessed with. Arabella wonders if Steve hadn’t broken up with her, would she pick him over Bucky? Or would her heart still desire the oceanic blue eyes that she wishes to admire every single second?

Every Time she tried to think about Steve she couldn’t help but compare him to Bucky, the same way he would compare her to Peggy. The way Steve’s touch felt hot against her hot skin, but Bucky’s felt as if ice was touching her.  Or the way Steve would hold her hand and rub his thumb against her skin, while Bucky intertwined their fingers every time they were close to each other.

While Steve was her Sun and fantasy, Bucky was her Moon and reality.

Arabella felt almost no guilt when comparing them, because she knew both of them would always own her heart.

Arabella loves Steve.

But she loves Bucky more.

With her mind already cleared from everything and her heart already unburdened. Arabella could already make her final decision.

When Arabella first arrived at the Wilson’s home, she could sense the foreign feeling of home. Her eyes trailed to her surroundings making sure no one is too suspicious. With kock on the door, Arabella became breathless when a gorgeous woman came to view. Giving her a tight smile, Arabella knew this woman was scared and wary about her.

“I’m Arabella, Sam sent me to take you to a safe place.” Sarah let out a relief sigh as soon as Arabella introduced herself to her.

Caught by surprise Arabella didn’t know how to respond when Sarah threw herself at her with a tight hug, “thank you.”

“We should go, it's not safe.” Arabella pulled away from the woman, with a determined voice, her eyes trailing to her white car parked in the street. Sarah, knowing it's not a moment to become emotionally unstable, called for her two sons, planning to later break down at a more appropriate time.

“AJ! Cass! Time to go!”

The two faces of the Sam’s nephews were filled with panic and terror, a bit of confusion in them too. “Where are we going, mom?”

“I’ll explain in the car, let's go.” hurrying her kids to Arabella’s car.

“But, mo-”

“Everything will be explained, okay Cass!” Sarah was losing her cool the more this became a reality to her. Arabella noticed this, so as soon as the car was ongoing and quickly leaving their home, Arabella held on to Sarah with a firm grip with the purpose to calm the mother down.

“Sam, will be fine. If he survived the endgame, he lived through this. Remember that.” Sarah turned to look at the blonde woman with adoration, and admiration, “You need to focus on your two sons right now.”

Thank you. Sarah wanted to say, but she couldn’t because at the same time their faces became pale with the words coming from the radio station.

“Captain America, John Walker, has killed one of the flag smashers with his shield…”

Arabella didn’t listen more after. Her mind had only one thing to say,

Can’t they just get a break already.
