One Week Later-Capsicle Floor-Steve's POV
"Why were you so weird about me calling Peggy and Kathy 'our family' last week?" I ask Sarah as I cook us some eggs for breakfast
"I don't count myself as part of the family, I grew up in Russia and sometimes the accent comes through." Sarah admits to me
I turn around to face the kitchen island that she's sitting at while she mindlessly taps the tops of her fingertips on the shiny counter top.
"That doesn't make you any less of family." I shake my head as I talk
"Really? Because it just feels like a reminder that I don't belong here." she states in an aggravated tone
"And where do you belong? Hmm? In a jail cell or cryo tube in the mountains of Russia?"
She flinches
"Sorry, i'm sorry. But you need to see that no matter what those agents used to tell you, it's not true." I add
"Steve, I was raised to be a perfect little housewife when I was ten years old. They made sure I took care of everyone else before I ever thought about my own needs, but not in a good way. They originally had just planned on teaching 'America's Sweetheart how to fit her position in the American Dream', but then they realized that their actions and words had no consequences.." Sarah calls out
"Wha-what did they?" I start as I forget about the eggs
"That's when the assaults and things started, it's also when..the..torturing started. It got the worst when they decided they could train me to be a weapon." she looks down
Bucky walks out of his room and sits at Sarah's right side, putting his right hand on her right arm and rubbing her back with his left.
"But you're a person, i'm trying to show you how you're supposed to be treated..especially by men." I mention
"I appreciate it, it's weird for me to see or feel anyone other than Uncle James treating me normally..i'm just not used to it."
"I hope you get used to it, I don't plan on treating you any differently." I point out
"Thanks."
"It's not something you thank somebody for." Bucky mentions
"You do." Sarah calls him out
I back up and turn around to see the pan full of burned eggs, so I put them in the freezer garbage and start over. Once i'm done cooking them, I plate them up for each of us and walk plates to part of my family.
"Sarah, you should know he's gonna try his hardest to earn your trust." Bucky mentions as he chews some of his eggs
"Don't talk with your mouth full." Sarah points out
"Sorry, Ma." Bucky groans
Sarah gives him a disapproving look, that he soon shrinks down within the couch to get away from her intimidating mom expression while she holds her fork up in warning.
"What in the wo-you know what? I'm not even gonna ask." I wave off
"How did the mission from a few days ago go?" Bucky asks me as a random movie plays in the background
"It failed." I sigh
"But no one's willing to tell me who this 'Crossbones' guy is." Sarah sighs
"Because he can't know who you are." I leak
My expression drops in disappointment of myself, though i'm glad no one other than us and Friday heard me say that.
"Who is he?" she asks me
