A Stark and a Barnes (Bucky x Reader)

Chapter 18

Everyone was shocked.
Peter, after a second, realized and came to me.
-I missed you.- he said, hugging me tightly and spinning me around.
-I missed you too, spiderboy.- I said laughing a little.
When we realized how bad dad was looking at us, we broke the hug.
-I'm so happy you came back, girl.- Nat said, coming to me and stroking my back.
-I missed you too, spider mama.- I smiled.
-Hey, hey. Can I hug my daughter now?- dad asked.
We broke the hug and dad came to hug me.
-Hey dad...- I smiled, resting my head on his chest.
-Hey sweetie...- he said, ruffling my hair.
-Come on Tony, let us say hello to Lady y/n.- Thor smiled softly. 
-Little warrior!- Clint shouted, coming towards me and hugging me. 
-Legolas!- I smiled -Come here Blondie, Greenie, you too Old Men.- I said as the four men came towards me.
Thor, Bruce and Steve hugged me, Bucky was the last.
When I saw Bucky's blue eyes and felt his arms around me, I felt my heart beating faster, and I couldn't understand why.
-So...are we going to continue our training sessions?- Nat asked, glancing from me to Clint, bringing me back to reality. 
-Yes. I would love it so much. I can't wait to beat your ass.- I grinned at Clint, breaking the hug -Can I come back to the lab too?- I smiled shyly at Bruce.
-Of course. I missed having you around.- the doctor smiled -And I'm sure Tony too.- 
-Wanna help with the suitcase?- Peter asked, taking it, not waiting for my answer.
-Sure, Spidey. We are gonna come back quickly.- I smiled, going to my floor, followed by Peter.
When I entered my room I felt so happy to be back, even if I missed mum.
Peter put the suitcase next to the desk.
-All of us missed you. Even Bucky seemed a little closed since you went away.- 
-C'mon stop sadness for today, let's go to the others.- I smiled at him, ruffling his hair, and he nodded.
We went to the main room and started talking about the days I wasn't there.
-I can swear that I heard Tony crying.- Thor laughed while drinking some beer.
-Hey, Point Break! That's not true.- dad complained, taking a sip of whiskey from the bottle.
-The famous Tony Stark, Iron Man, crying for what?- Steve asked.
-It was nothing.- dad rolls his eyes, annoyed and embarrassed.
-C'mon Tony. I have an idea on what it would be.- Nat said amused, making herself a cocktail at the bar.
-Tasha, can you make me a drink too, please?- I asked her.
-On my way, honey.- she smiled, taking a glass, a couple of bottles and some ice.
-Romanoff, don't even try. She's still a little girl.- dad said, putting down the bottle -My little girl.- 
-Dad! Don't ruin everything, please.- I complained, rolling my eyes.
-You are too young to drink. End of discussion.-
I stood up and walked forward Nat, who was handing me a glass with an orange-red liquid.
I drank it all in a gulp, surprising even myself, not even thinking I was able to do that.
I felt the liquid went down my throat and it tingled a little.
Of course it wasn't anything too strong. 
Clint, Thor and Nat had an amused smile.
Steve, Bucky, Bruce and Peter were shocked.
And I could tell that dad was...proud?
He was definitely smiling proudly at me.
-I don't understand...you should be angry.- I said.
-Oh honey. I would be more angry if you wouldn't drink that. With this I don't mean you can drink everyday. The last thing I want is my daughter to finish all my bottles.- he smiled.
In that moment the rumbling of a belly caught our attention.
-I'm pretty hungry, anyone else?- asked Clint, standing up. 
-Yeah, me.- I stood up too, tying my hair in a bun.
We ate dinner together, and around 12 am, after a movie, Peter went home, accompanied by Happy.
-Alright, sweetie, it's bedtime.- Dad touched my shoulder, waking me up.
-Oh...? What?- I asked, still half asleep, yawning. 
-You fell asleep on the couch. You should go to bed.- he smiled. 
-Yeah, you're right. Night everyone.- I greeted all of them.
On my way to the elevator a voice called me.
-Wait y/n!- Bucky said coming towards me.
-Oh. Hey Bucky. Need something?- 
-I have to go to my floor too.- he simply said as he pushed the button.
-It's pretty early for you, tho. Are you ok?- I asked.
-Yeah, I'm just tired, I guess. But thanks for asking.- he smiled. 
"A smile like that could melt everyone's heart" I thought, but I quickly pushed away that thought.
-No worries.- I smiled back.
We entered the elevator.
When the doors closed, Bucky pushed the button for the 19th floor and then I pushed the one for the 18th. 
I didn't think Bucky would say something.
But surprisingly he did.
-I...I wanted to thank you...- he said. 
-Thank me for what, exactly?- I asked, confused. 
-For the night before you left. I didn't have a chance to say this. You could just leave me alone, but you didn't. You risked being attacked by me. After all, you know that I still don't have full control of my mind. And despite this you still sat next to me, risking being harmed, and made sure I was okay. This meant a lot to me. It really does.- he said lowering his gaze. 
-Don't even think about it, Bucky. It's okay. Everyone would have done the same. Everyone here cares for you. Don't forget about it.- I smiled, resting my hand on his shoulder. 
He looked up at me and smiled.
Than he hugged me.
I was sincerely surprised by his behaviour, but I hugged him back.
The elevator stopped and the doors opened. 
-That's my stop. Goodnight y/n. Sweet dreams.- he said as he got out the elevator.
-Goodnight Buck.- I said as the doors closed and I went to my floor, thinking about what had just happened.
