The Forgotten ❤️

Chapter 11

Steve spends the next few weeks ignoring Victoria, keeping her shut out. He left all the stuff she had left in his room on her desk. She even noticed he had taken back his iPod. He went on every mission available. Tried as she might, she couldn't get through to him. He even started bringing Sharon back around.

Grant brought her back to reality, placing his hand on hers at breakfast. He had been spending a lot of his time training with Wanda. She looked up at him, she couldn't get over his eyes. It was like she was looking at Bucky. "He'll come around. I promise."

"Yeah." She left him at the table and walked outside for some fresh air. She heard a loud crack as Thor landed right next to her with Loki. "Fuck!" She jumped, before hunching over grabbing her heart. 

He laughed, "sorry, did I frighten you little one?" Thor wrapped his arms around her, spinning her around before setting her back down.

She laughed, "you did. Yes." 

Thor went inside leaving her with Loki. "Are you okay Pet?" He rubbed her back as he pulled her into a hug. She let him envelope her for a few moments. He always knew when she was down, showing up at the perfect time. He never made her talk about it. He just hugged her, and let her forget about whatever was bothering her for a while. 

He eventually let her go, "I missed you Loki."

He just winked at her and opened the door to the compound. "Introduce me to your son Pet."

She walked in the door he held open for her and introduced Thor and Loki to Grant as Steve entered the kitchen. He met her eyes and started to leave as Sharon walks into the kitchen behind him wearing his shirt. Everyone looked at Victoria, including Steve. She couldn't control herself as she sent waves of pain to Sharon, causing her to fall to the floor, screaming. 

"Mom!" She felt Grant grab her hand, blocking her power. She heard Loki snicker behind her as she stormed out of the kitchen back outside.

Bucky stood up from the table, angry, "Steve, training room. Now."

Steve followed Bucky to the training room. "What do you want Buck?"

Bucky turned and landed his fist in Steve's face. "What do I want? What are you doing?"

Steve lunged at him, knocking him back with him on top of Bucky. "I'm not doing anything, I'm moving on."

Bucky kicks Steve off of him, standing back up. "She loves you. She wants you. What the fuck are you doing with Sharon?"

"You're wrong. She's in love with you and she wants to be with her family. And she should be." 

Bucky grabs his shoulder, making Steve face him. "Don't be stupid. She's not in love with me, she never was. Get over yourself."

He starts to walk away but Steve throws something at him, knocking him down. "Of course she is! She told me so! You always got everything I wanted!" 

"Grow up Steve! You can have everything you want if you weren't such a dick."

Victoria walks into the training room as Bucky lunges at Steve. "Stop!" She made them both calm down instantly. Steve doesn't look at her as he storms out of the room. Bucky smiles softly at her before leaving behind Steve.

*******************************

Loki finds Victoria on the roof on the night of another party. She stood at the parapet in a long green dress. She turned around to face him when he walked up. He noticed the green matched the green in her eyes. His eyes trailed from hers down to her low neckline that went to her waist. "What are you doing up here Pet?"

She groaned, "I can't bring myself to see Steve with Sharon again." She turned around to find him in a black suit and a white button down with no tie. "You look great Loki."

"Funny, I was going to say the same about you." He winked at her, offering her his arm. "Come on Pet, I'll be your date." He moved his hand over his chest, making a tie the same color as her dress appear around his neck. She grabs his arm and laughs as he walks her to the party.

She was aware of everyone looking at her as she entered the party with Loki. He bent down to her ear, "they're staring because you're so beautiful."

"Oh shut up." She looked around and saw Grant dancing with Wanda. They liked each other, she could feel it. The fact they found each other made her smile. He led her to the bar where Natasha always spent her time. She went to ask for something to drink but Loki shook his head, "two glasses please." He pulled out a flask and poured some amber liquid into the two glasses Natasha placed on the counter for them. "You won't get drunk off what they can offer you." He pushes a glass to her, "take this." He holds his own glass up and she dings it before drinking her own.

She felt the warm liquid coarse through her body. "Can I have another?"

Loki smiled and poured her another one. "Only one more. We don't know how it will affect you."

He walks away to talk to Thor leaving her at the bar. She finishes her second glass and sets it on the counter. She started to feel a little dizzy, but it was a good dizzy. She felt lighter, relaxed. She had never been drunk before. She couldn't get drunk, or she didn't think she could anyways. Whatever Loki gave her certainly helped. She felt his eyes on her as she turned around to see Steve. "Steve." She didn't notice Sharon at first until she stepped in front of Steve. 

"Is this something I can help you with, Vick?"

Victoria stood up, inches from Sharon's face, "don't call me that. Also," She looked at Steve, running her hand down his arm, "he is the one that can't keep his eyes off of me." Sharon scowls as Victoria motions to her own body, "and can you blame him." She projected an image of her and Steve in his bed to both Steve and Sharon, making Steve turn bright red. Sharon started to say something but Loki grabbed Victoria's arm.

"Come on Pet, dance with me." She knew he was pulling her away before she could cause trouble. She stumbles, feeling a bit drunk, but he holds firmly to her as he pulls her to the dance floor. She looks around and sees Steve on the floor with Sharon as she feels Loki pull her to him. "Don't look at them Pet, look at me." She looked up at Loki, his green eyes soft towards her. "Come on. I'll help you make him jealous."

The thought made her laugh, how could they make Steve jealous. He seemed to know what she was thinking as he brought his hand gently to her face. She turned to look to see if Steve was watching, but Loki pulled her back to him. "He's watching, trust me." He parted her lips softly with his thumb as he placed his hand on the back of her neck, pulling her lips to his. She didn't know if it was the alcohol or how much she missed Steve, but she melted into his embrace as she felt his tongue gently enter her mouth, causing her to moan quietly. He pulls away as they are nudged slightly as Steve storms from the party. "See Pet? He was watching." 

She feels Bucky pull her arm, "you're playing a dangerous game doll."

"He left me Buck. He made his choice." She pulled her arm away from him, still looking at him, "take me to bed? Please James." 

Bucky hesitated but grabbed her hand, interlocking his fingers with hers as he led her away from the party.

"He still loves you. Don't give up on him." She hears Grant's voice in her head, making her turn around as she sees him watching her. She projected her own voice back to him, "he has a funny way of showing it." She pulled Bucky out of the party.

He walked her to her room, opening her door for her. He stood, leaning on the doorframe, not entering behind her. She turns back to face him, "are you coming in?"

"I'm not sure that's a good idea doll. You're drunk."

"Please James." She looks behind him as she sees Steve in the hallway outside his own door with Sharon. She locks eyes with him and grabs Bucky, pulling him into her room and shutting the door. "We can just sleep. Just don't leave me alone. Please."

"Okay." She watched Bucky strip down to his underwear as she did the same, grabbing his shirt and putting it on, smelling it as she did. She laid down on the bed, moving for him to lay with her. "Steve said you're still in love with me, is that true?" He put his arm up for her to lay her head on his chest.

Victoria sighed, "of course I am. I never stopped. And now there's Grant and I'm even more confused than I was before."

She looked up at him to see him watching her. He hadn't been this close to her since he got his memories back. He remembered loving her, touching her. He remembered how it felt to be with her. He rolled over so they could be face to face as he wrapped both arms around her, "I remember sitting, choosing his name. We each chose one of someone that was important to us. I was terrified they were going to take him from us. When he started to develop his powers, I was sure they would." Tears started to fall as he saw the tears start to well in Victoria's eyes too, "he was all I had left of you. I hated having to leave. Having to leave you. I love you so much."

"Me too. I want you James." Bucky nodded as he let her pull his lips to hers. He heard her moan as he pinned her under him, his hand traveling up her shirt to her breasts. She leaned forward, letting him remove it gently. He trailed kisses down her chin and neck, her hand in his hair. She clutched onto the bed, moaning as his mouth found her nipples, gently rolling them between his tongue and upper teeth. His facial hair tickling her as he moved his mouth down her stomach. She forgot how gentle he was when they made love.

He grabbed the band of her panties, kissing her thighs, "you want me to keep going?"

"Please don't stop James. I've missed you so much." She watched him slowly remove her panties before standing up to remove his own, positioning himself back between her legs. He entered her slowly, letting her fully envelope him as he watched her throw her head back. 

"Look at me doll." She looked back at him as he ran his hands slowly back up her stomach and breasts, placing his arms under hers as she wrapped them around him. His tongue found hers as she moaned again, sending him what she was feeling; intensifying it for both of them as they both finished together quickly. Bucky laid next to her out of breath, "god, I forgot how great that was, feeling what you feel." He put his arm up to let her reclaim her spot on his chest. "I love you Vick. Choose me."

"Oh James. Just sleep." Victoria laid on his chest thinking about what he said about choosing him over Steve. She knew it would be more difficult moving forward now; being in love with both of them.
