Some weeks passed and I started walking again, for my joy.
I realized that my feelings for Bucky were real and it wasn't just a crush.
In fact I flushed every time he was talking to me.
I also started noticing that something wasn't right with Peter, but I couldn't understand what, so I gave up, telling myself that when he would have been ready he would have come to me to tell me what was wrong.
-So...- I said as we were all in the main room, doing nothing -If men are male. And women are female. And the elemental symbol for iron is Fe. Wouldn't it make women...- in that moment Highway to Hell by AC/DC started playing, and I put on dad's sunglasses.
Everyone started laughing uncontrollably.
-That's my fucking daughter!- Dad shouted, laughing and smiling.
-Language!- Steve said, hitting his arm.
-Anyway I'm going to the lab to pass my time.- I said.
-Usually girls spend their time brushing their hair, painting their nails, reading or writing. But not y/n Stark. Nope. That's why we all love you.- Clint smiled.
-Saved in the corner, Legolas.- I smiled back.
-On Asgard there are the Valkyrie. An army of only women. There is nothing wrong with women. I love women. Too much some times.- Thor said.
-Good to know, Blondie.- I smiled.
-Can I come too, y/n?- Peter asked, shyly.
-Sure, Spidey. Bye fellas.- I waved at them.
-Remember that I have eyes everywhere, Parker.- Dad yelled as we walked in the elevator.
-Shut up, dad!- I yelled back before the metal doors closed -Sorry for that, Pete.-
-It's okay, don't worry.- he shyly smiled.
We started talking and changing some projects about his Spider suit.
-We should reset some of the settings. Resize mechanisms to implement and add functions. I don't think we're going to add anything too excessive as a blaster, but we definitely need to check the web shooters and finish the AI, okay Pete? Do you want a female voice or a masculine one? Do you already have a name in mind or an acronym?- I asked looking at some papers on our desk.
Because yes, dad and Bruce allowed us to have our little spot in the lab.
-Yeah...a female one, I think. I'd feel more...comfortable?- he giggled -For name...mh...Karen!- he shouted.
-Why Karen?- I asked, looking at him.
-I don't know. It's the first name that came into my mind. And I like it.- he shrugged.
-Alright, so let's start working.- I said smiling at him.
After some hours we decided to take a break.
-Want something? Water? Tea?- he asked -I'm going to the vending machine.-
-Nah, I'm good. Thanks anyway.- I responded while looking at some sketches from discarded ideas.
-I'm back.- he said with a bottle in his hand -Can...can I talk to you?- he asked.
-Sure. Go on.- I said still not looking at him.
-Jarvis, could you please turn off the microphones?-
-Sure, Mr Parker.- the AI replied.
-What's up, Pete?- I asked, looking at him, confused.
-I...I...god if it's difficult, eheh.- he chuckled, scratching his neck, embarrassed.
-It's okay, Peter. You can tell me everything. You know?- I smiled and he nodded.
-I...no, I can't.- he was really in conflict with himself, then he took a deep breath -I'm gonna say it real quickly, alright?- I just nodded -Ilikeyou!-
-You what?- I asked, although I had understood.
-You heard me. I like you, y/n.- he said more calmly, looking at his shoes.
-Oh, Peter...- I said, I really didn't have words -I'm so sorry...- I whispered hugging him -I'm so so sorry.-
He hugged me back, rubbing my back.
-It's okay if you don't feel the same...I hope we still can be friends.- he said with a "I'm trying to pretend that it's okay, but it's not".
-Of course we can, Pete.- I smiled sadly.
In that moment his phone rang.
-It's Aunt May. She needs some help. I'll see you tomorrow?- he asked.
-Yeah, see ya tomorrow. I'll warn dad that May needed help.- I said, nodding.
-Thanks, you're the best.-
-You are too, bye.- I waved at him.
-Bye.- he greeted then he went away.
When I was sure he went away I rested my head on the desk, groaning a little.
-Fucking feelings...- I mumbled.
I felt so bad for rejecting him, but if I had lied to him, I would have been even worse.
Some minutes after I hear a knock.
-Your father sent me to tell you that dinner is ready.- Bucky's head peeked off the door, he had a cold tone.
-Oh, hey Bucky.- I tried to smile -I'm coming, give me a couple of minutes. Could you tell dad that May texted Peter because she needed help?- I said, he nodded and left.
I quickly arranged the paper then went to dinner.
Bucky's pov
I went to the lab to call y/n and Peter for dinner.
-Ilikeyou!- I heard Peter's voice.
I froze in place.
-You what?- y/n's voice was confused.
-You heard me. I like you, y/n.- he said looking at his shoes.
I felt sadness and anger at the same time.
-Oh Peter...- she said, hugged him, she mumbled something else but I didn't hear what it was.
I felt that my left hand closed into a fist.
I quickly walked away to not see that hurtful scene.
My heart ached.
"I lost her..." was the only thing that my brain could think at that moment.
I didn't expect her to love me back, but I couldn't see her in someone else's arms.
I felt my eyes tearing but I tried to put myself together.
After some minutes I knocked at the door.
-Your father sent me to tell you that dinner is ready.- I tried to keep a cold tone.
-Oh, hey Bucky.- she smiled and this made my heart ache even more -I'm coming, give me a couple of minutes. Could you tell dad that May texted Peter because she needed help?- she asked, I nodded and quickly went back to the others.
