(Aspen POV)
"Where did you take us Buck?" I look around a giant garage with cars that go from antiques to modern marvels. If Steve was here he would nerd out. I smile to myself for a second thinking about how he would love seeing these cars up close. Candice ran her fingers over the motorcycles, she had begun to really enjoy them thanks to Bucky.
"Just wait.." He says nervously looking around the garage. At first I thought he was looking around to make sure we were in a safe place but then I realized he was looking for someone.
"Is this his storage place?" I asked squinting my eyes at him in disbelief, hoping I was wrong. Candice paused for a second turning to look at Bucky. She looked down at one motorcycle she found particularly interesting to only realize...it belongs to Zemo.
"It..well.." Bucky began to studder.
"Babe?" Candice walked up to him with confusion in her eyes. He softened up for a moment before speaking.
"He sent me a message through old contacts to meet him here." I got aggravated. This could be a trap and we walked right into it. "It was the safest option for all of us." He tries to ease me as I'm more upset than Candice.
"Yea sure Buck...he told people we were meeting, this could be a damn trap!" I yell at him.
"It's why I followed you" A deep voice comes from a back door. I instantly knew who it was. I felt relief for the first time since we left to meet Zemo.
"Steve" I sigh walking up to him giving him a hug. He didn't hesitate to wrap his arms around my shoulders digging his fingers into my hair.
"You didn't trust me with your girl punk?" Bucky chuckles out while he wraps his arm around Candice's shoulder, we both felt her tension at his sentence.
"I do, I don't trust Zemo around any of you. If you all have trigger words, Bucky is the only one that can't be turned, but Aspen can easily mess with his head. It's better if there's another pair of hands to handle this." I smile at him knowing he just made half of that up. He was worried about me. He had the tightest grip he has ever had on me and wasn't planning on letting it go.
"Hello" Zemo walked in wearing a security uniform. So that's how he escaped.
"Zemo" Bucky stated tensing up. I didn't say a word, I stood tense as well with Steve's arm moving down to my waist, holding me like I would disappear if he didn't.
"No hello father? I feel slightly ashamed" He sounded like he was mocking us. Steve and Bucky naturally stood slightly in front of Candice and I protectively.
"You should feel ashamed.." I began to speak when Candice shot me a look to shut up.
"Thank you James, now I can help my children." Steve's fists tightened slightly. I placed my hand on his arm to calm him down.
"And how are you going to do that? You said you needed to meet your contacts. So where is this meeting happening?"
"I need a phone." He answers simply.
"Then what Zemo?" Bucky asks confused.
"Then we take a plane"
****
We got into a plane surprisingly quick. We boarded seating facing each other. "So..this is yours?" Candice asked curiously looking around.
"How can you afford this from jail?" Bucky added. I looked out the window to look at the clouds trying to relax. Steve's hand firmly holding mine.
