Marvel Imagines pt. 5

Voices from the other side ❤️‍🔥 Bucky Barnes/Tony Stark (request)

Song: Chase Atlantic - I think I'm lost again.

Imagine; Tony goes on a mission and leaves you and Bucky behind, when the mission takes a couple more days, the voices sow doubt.

I got a bit tired of using "doll" so I used "peach" instead!

•••

You and Tony have been attached to the hip ever since you were born. You did almost everything together, but now that the missions start to take their toll on you, he thinks it's best that you take some time off.

Your power also has been off the charts lately, the power to speak with the people that have passed, as well as loads of other people mostly considered mythical creatures, such as demons. Off the charts in this case means that the voices have been reaching out to you more and more, and you can't stop them.

Bucky also got left behind with this one, Tony mainly wanted someone to keep an eye on you, and since you trust Bucky the most besides him, he found it the obvious choice. Bucky also deserved some rest, you both deserve some quality time together after everything.

The voices reach out at ever hour of the day, you don't really get much rest. You try to focus on one thing, they will ruin it by talking right in your ear.

You don't scare easily anymore. You used to jump when someone would speak up but not anymore. You're numb to it.

You're watching a movie, those voices have been quieter, so you take this opportunity to binge a series you've been wanting to see for a long time.

Bucky sits beside you. His arm laid comfortably across your body, holding you close. You're laying against him. You feel so at ease that it starts I become uneasy. The voices are so quiet all of the sudden.

'Where's your mind at, peach?' Bucky asks when he notices that the concentration isn't on the screen in front of you.

'It's so quiet...' you mutter in disbelief. 'It's dangerously quiet Buck...'

'Maybe your powers are finally blocking off the voices you don't want to hear?' He suggests.

'I don't know... it unnerves me though...'

'Lay back and enjoy it peach,  I'm sure it's nothing..' he brushes it off.

Your fingers find his Henley. You fiddle with the material nervously. You're waiting for something, anything to happen. Your eyes are glued to the tv, maybe it helps.

'Tony and the guys will need a couple days extra to complete the mission by the way...' Bucky casually says and you nod. 'They're okay right?'

'Yeah they are..'

They're not fine Y/n.

Your breath hitches, something Bucky picks up on. He's dead Y/n. They're all dead.

'Peach?' Bucky asks looking down at you, your eyes are still staring at the screen

They killed him, he's dead! You should've gone with him, you could've saved him. It's your fault! He's dead! Everyone is dead!

'Stop..' you mutter. Buckys head turns to you and his worry grows, maybe it's not nothing.

He's gooone. Dead, dead, dead!

'Stop..' it's more firm this time.

'Peach? You okay?'

Your fault Y/n! You should've been there! You're weak for staying behind! Shame! He's gone! Dead, dead, dead!

Taunting, that's the word you'd use when it comes to these voices. They're trying to sow doubt and fear and you hate to admit that it's working.

Bucky stops the show and fully turns to you. You're trembling with your eyes still glued to the screen. 'Hey... Y/n...' he tries to grab your attention.

'Stop... you're wrong...' you mutter to yourself.

'Wrong about what? Talk to me Y/n...' he places both hands on the sides of your arms and looks into your eyes.

It scares him how dull they look, how empty. He knows you're there but it's like you're stored all the way back into your own head.

Your heart is racing a mile a minute from what he can hear. 'Y/n.' He says more stern.

He's dead as a door nail! Iron man is gone! The avengers are dead! Your fault! Your fault.

Tears slip down your cheeks. 'Y/n... peach... look at me c'mon...' his hands go up to your cheeks.

'They're dead...' you answer.

'Who's dead?'

'My brother...the team... they're dead...'

'No they're not Y/n... focus on me, they're trying to scare you..don't let them...' The calm in his voice makes you doubt the voices.

'They're not dead?'

'No peach... they're not...I just talked to them like 30 minutes ago... you want to call them right now?' He suggests and you give him a slight nod.

He quickly whips his phone out and dials Tony's number. It rings a couple times before his voice comes through loud and clear. 'It better be an emergency...'

'Tony?' Your meek voice barely reaches the phone but Tony can immediately tell what's going on.

'They did it again didn't they?' He sighs.

'Yeah...' you reply bursting into tears.

'Hey.. hey kiddo... it's okay... I'm okay, the entire team is okay...'

'Thanks Tony..' Bucky replies for you.

'Love you kiddo, we'll all be home soon, just let them talk... Bucky is there with you, if you doubt it again then you call me... I'll always answer...'

'Thank you Tones...' you wipe your tears and clear your throat.

'You're welcome...'

Bucky ends the call before tossing his phone aside and immediately turning all his attention back to you. He cups your cheeks and wipes away the streaks still present.

'They're quiet again aren't they?' He asks.

'Yeah.. they stopped.. it's back to the normal noise...' you sigh. 'Sorry...'

'No no.. don't you dare apologise... listen.. It's not your fault... did you ask for this?'

'No-'

'Did you want this?'

'No but-'

'Did you put them up to this?'

'No...'

'Then stop apologising right now... we're gonna go back to watching that show together.. and then I'm taking you out for dinner... we're going to have a fun night... this is not going to ruin it you hear me?'

You should get scared of his tone, but the words really contradict the tone. He's the sweetest human being ever.

'I love you..'

'I love you too... now get your butt over here...' he smiles at you.
