Chapter 32

TW: panic attack

"Munch!" Jason telepathically called to her. Nyx didn't answer and Jason slammed his hands on the table, letting out a huff. He turned to look at the guard in the room.

"Go and find out what Nyx is doing, and report back to me." Jason said, slightly raising his voice from anger.

The guard nodded his head and left the room, quickly making his way out the base.

Nyx felt someone rubbing her back, and she slightly opened her eyes to be met with someone's neck. Flashes of images from last night started popping up in her head. She shot up and quickly moved off of Bucky and stood in her stance, ready to fight.

Bucky quickly sat up, due to how quick Nyx jumped out of bed and he saw her panicking. Her breathing was fast, and her hands started to shake. She was confused on how she got here, and her vision blurring didn't help her figure it out.

Bucky quickly went over to her, minding to be cautious because he knows she's not thinking straight. He slowly reached his hands out to grab hers, to help prevent the shaking.

"Nyx...It's me, Bucky. You're okay." He softly told her as he got closer to her. Hearing Bucky's name made something in her instantly relaxing. She looked towards him and she melted into his arms, her legs giving out on her.

Bucky swiftly caught her and held her while she hugged him back. She was breathing heavily and he started to rub her back, trying to get her to calm down. She took deep breaths as he whispered to her,

"You're, okay, you're okay. I got you."

Nyx let out deep breaths and pulled away looking at Bucky. Her thoughts were disoriented and she couldn't think straight, she felt like the room was spinning.

"Bucky...this- this guy...he-he drugged me, I think and- and-" Nyx breathed out, barely managing to get the words out.

"Shh, I know. You don't have to talk about it." Bucky cut her off and pulled her into another hug. He moved backwards and sat her down on the bed, and pulled her close.

She sat in his embrace and tried to calm her breathing. Bucky rubbed her arm as she started to calm down.

"Thank you." She whispered to him.

"Anything for you." Bucky told her and Nyx smiled into his chest.

"I wanna see my mom." She said a bit louder.

"Oh." Was all Bucky could say.

"Can we go see her? Please?" Nyx moved to look up at him, with pleading eyes.

"Mhm." Bucky choked up as he got up off the bed and went to the bathroom. Nyx watched him as he got up and let out a breath.

"I guess I'll go myself." Nyx muttered to herself, and slipped on her pair of workout shoes she left here. She made her way out of the room and began to walk to the elevator.

She decided to stop by the kitchen to grab something to drink and some water. Her cheeks felt flushed, and she needed to calm down.

She walked into the kitchen seeing the team there except for Thor, Bruce and Tony.

Wanda noticed her first and sprinted over to Nyx, embracing her in a hug. Nyx stiffened at the contact, and Wanda chuckled a bit.

"You could at least hug me back."
