A Heart Break In Time

Hulk Out!

"Get him to Shuri!" I yelled before putting the face of my helmet back up and running towards them. Steve was fighting two of the agents, Wanda had three in the air as she was about to throw them. I ran in, blasting the two Steve was fighting. He turned to me and nodded, but I saw the worry on his face. "We got him, Steve. He's okay." I reassured him before facing away. Our backs against each other as we continued fighting the rest. Wanda continued to lift and throw the agents two at a time, Steve and I basically just held them back until she was ready.

"That's all of them, let's go!" Steve yelled as Wanda threw the last one across the field. The three of us ran to the jet. Sam was at the pilots chair, as soon as we were in he got us out of there. I immediately walked to the table Bucky was laying on and grabbed his hand.

"How is he?" I placed his hand against my lips, kissing his knuckles.

Shuri smiled. "He is fine. We hooked him up to an IV, but everything looks fine." Shuri spoke before going to take over the pilot seat.

"They wanted Maria. They took him to ensure we'd come back for him." Sam explained, joining us.

"Yeah." I put Bucky's hand down. "I figured that. Anyone heard from them?"

"Angel said she would meet us at home." Wanda said with a small smile. At home.

I nodded. "Great. Okay." I sat down on the chair next to Steve. "Least now all we have to worry about is Fury, right?"

"Well, mostly..." Steve responded. Right. His brain was still foggy. And we still needed to talk. I sighed.

"Yeah, I know Steve."

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Bucky start to move. I jumped up and he groaned. "Shit, what happened?"

"Bucky?" I grabbed his arm. "Hey, it's me. Are you okay?"

"Hi." He smiled and I melted. I don't know if I really processed it, but I was so worried I would never see that smile again. I didn't think. I just grabbed him and kissed him.

We kissed for a few moments until I remembered our audience. I pulled away and avoided eye contact.

"Glad you're back, Buck. Though I'm getting real tired of having to come save you." Steve joked.

Bucky sat up and smirked. "Yeah well, it's payback, kid." Steve put his hand on Bucky's shoulder and smiled at him. Bucky moved his legs to the side and tried to stand up. "So who's going to tell me what happened? Did we get Maria out?"

I laughed, loudly. "God, you missed so much. Well first, Wanda has been helping Steve bit by bit, so he's getting better. We did get Maria. She's okay. And then we found out that Fury actually sent the three new guys to spy on us..."

"Wait, what?" Bucky shook his head in shock. "Come on, you're joking."

"Nope. Apparently Fury wants to restart SHIELD. With him in charge of us. Apparently we're reckless, did you know?" I asked sarcastically.

Bucky chuckled. "Okay so now what? Are they gone?"

"No, they stopped talking to Fury. They want to stay. They like us, crazy right?" I moved towards him, wrapping my around around his waist. "Anyway," I continued. "Fury went after Peggy, so she's back at the compound. Peggy wants to go back home, though. But we'll have to deal with Fury after all of this."

Bucky wrapped his arms around me and rubbed my back. "Seems like you handled everything pretty well without me."

"That's because you didn't see her drunk and crying in the theater room." Steve spoke from his seat.

"Wait, really?" Bucky leaned back.

"It was a bad day. But I'm okay now. You're okay." I leaned my head back on his chest and he kissed my forehead.

"Yeah, we're okay now, doll."

Shuri yelled from the front, "Two minutes out!"
