When I woke up it was because of the pain.
I had to blink several times to get used to the light.
I noticed that I wasn't in my room and that I was attached to a drip.
-y/n you're awake.- I heard Jarvis's voice.
-Yeah, can...can you call someone, please...the wounds really hurt.- I said, trying to sit, but failing.
-On my way.- he said.
A couple of minutes later dad, mum and Bruce walked in.
-Oh my god...- mum said running to me and hugging me.
She had red eyes, it was evident that she had been crying.
-How do you feel, sweetie?- dad asked, approaching.
-I would feel better if you gave me some painkillers.- I tried to smile, to cheer them up.
-Here you are.- Bruce handed me the pills and I thanked him.
-Now you need to rest. But the others will come to see you. If you're tired just tell Jarvis and he'll warn us.- Dad said while Bruce was checking some papers -She's okay?-
-Yeah, all the values are average.- Bruce smiled -She's strong.- he smiled at me.
Mum was checking the values too and dad had his gaze lowered.
-Did mum scold you because you agreed to send me to Hydra base?- I joked in a low voice, so dad could hear me.
-Yeah. But she loves me too much to be angry for too long.- he smiled.
-y/n y/m/n Stark...- mum started.
-Uh, full name. I'm in trouble.-
-What were you thinking? Going into a Hydra base? Seriously? This wasn't the reason why I sent you here.- she sounded pretty angry.
-Yeah, I'm sorry mum. I know. But I couldn't let Nat go there alone. She has done so much for me.-
-It's okay for this time, next time please inform me if you are going on a suicide mission.- she said ironically.
-Sounds good to me.- I smiled trying to make her laugh.
-Don't.- she said seriously.
-You have never been here for seventeen years and now you want to be a protective mother? Really?- I asked, tilting my head, laughing ironically -Can I talk a second just with dad?-
-For what? Another mission?- she asked, irritated.
-No, because I killed a man and I don't know how to live with this weight on my conscience!- I shouted, looking away.
-Honey...I...- mum said guilty for saying those things.
-Don't say anything please...- I said, feeling my eyes shining.
She and Bruce left the room without a word.
-Sweetie, it's okay...- dad said, hugging me tightly, as I cried on his shoulder.
-I killed him...maybe he had a family...which is never gonna see again...- I sobbed.
-Yeah, but if you hadn't killed him you couldn't have saved Barnes. If Barnes became the Winter Soldier more people would be in danger. So you did a good thing. Okay?- he said, stroking my hair.
-You sure?- I said looking down.
-Did I ever lie to you?-
-Yes actually...on Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, where the babies came from.- I said, smiling a little.
-Ok, fine, I did. But I'm not lying this time.- he smiled -I'm gonna call the others.- he said getting up and walking towards the door.
-Dad?- I called him.
-Yeah?-
-Can you say sorry from me to mum? I didn't want to be that hard with her.-
-Sure sweetie.- he smiled leaving the room.
After less than a minute Peter ran into the room.
-I was worried sick about you.- he said hugging me and sitting on the bed next to me -How do you feel?-
-I had been shot, but I'm okay.- I smiled weakly.
-Nat said that you did a very good job.- he smiled.
In that moment the others came in.
-Little warrior, you good?- Clint smiled.
-I'm still alive, Legolas, so yeah.-
-This was very good for a first mission.- Nat smiled, sadly -Are you okay? I mean the...y'know...-
-Yeah...yeah.- I nodded -I know it was for the best.-
-What are you talking about?- Thor said, confused.
-I...I had to shoot a man...and I killed him...- I lowered my gaze.
-We totally understand. The first is always the worst. Everyone in this room has killed at least one person.- Steve consoled me.
-Hey! I didn't kill anyone yet.- Peter said.
-Ok, sorry. Almost everyone in this room has killed at least one person.- Steve corrected himself.
We talked a little, after that they went to sleep, cause it was pretty late.
I passed out for several hours, so I wasn't tired and I decided to watch Sherlock for a while.
After an hour I heard some footsteps.
"It's almost 1 am, who could be awake at this hour?" I thought.
Then I heard a gentle knock at the door.
-Come in.- I said.
In that moment Bucky's head peeked out of the door.
-Oh, you're awake.- he said.
-Yeah. You okay?- I asked as he entered the room.
-Yup but I couldn't sleep. You either, from what I see.- he said sitting on the chair.
-Yeah. You still have nightmares?-
-Sometimes. Less often than before, though. But I didn't came here to talk about me.-
-Then why are you here?- I asked, smiling a little.
-I guess I feel a bit guilty for what happened to you...if you hadn't come to save me you wouldn't be here...-
-Bucky this isn't your fault. It's all mine. I decided to come to save you. I don't blame you and you shouldn't either. Get it?-
-Yeah...I get it.- he smiled a little -I also came here to stay as a guard. Just in case you need something to drink or eat...or just to talk a little...-
-I'm okay, Buck, you can go to sleep, I'll be fine.-
-If I leave I'm not gonna be okay with myself, so I'm staying...if I don't bother you, if I do you just need to tell me.- he lowered his gaze.
-Okay so you wanna keep me company? Then tell me how was the world back in the 40s.-
-Oh, I can do that...so I was...- he started.
-Oh, no. You're not gonna sit there, you are gonna sit here.- I move a little so he could sit next to me -The bed is big enough...and that chair is pretty uncomfortable if you fall asleep there.-
-But your father...-
-He's gonna try to make peace with mum, he's not gonna come until 11 am, don't worry.- I smiled.
He didn't say anything as he sat next to me telling me about his past days with little Steve.
After some time we fell asleep.
