Holly Jolly Christmas~Bucky

"Alright everyone! Bucky is on his way back from Wakanda today so try not to be to in his face. Talking to you Sam." Steve said as he finished setting up the Christmas tree.
"What?! I am not like that."
"Last time you visited him, you took the hay he was feeding the goats and dumped it on him." Y/N recalled as the others chuckled.
"It was funny!"
They shook their heads and heard the Wakandan aircraft land. The team got up and ran outside. The back door dropped open and Bucky walked down with T'Challa.
"Hey, how ya been Buck!" Steve embraced him and clapped his back.
"Good. I've been doing good." He gave a slight smile and greeted the rest of the group.
"He has been doing very well. We will miss him." T'Challa chimed in and hugged Steve before getting back into the ship and flying off.
"Why don't we go in and get you something to eat." Natasha offered and they all walked back into the compound.

They sat and talked for hours about Bucky's time in Wakanda. He told them about how they got the mind control out and how long it took for him to get back to normal. Overall he was just grateful for his time in Wakanda. But there was one thing, whenever he would look over at the Christmas decor his expressions and body language would change, showing he's sad or uncomfortable. Y/N noticed this, she was very good at reading people, she was a S.H.I.E.L.D
agent so being able to read someone was a must. As the night went on everyone went to their rooms and went to sleep, but for Y/N, she was up wrapping presents till 2AM.

"Oh come on!" She groaned as the tape folded in on itself. It was too late to be doing this but it was the only time she wasn't busy.
*Knock Knock Knock*
"Come in!"
The door creaked open and revealed a wide awake Bucky.
"Oh Buck, was I too loud? Did I wake you?"
"No. No, I've been up." He chuckled and she motioned for him to enter. Walking in he sat on the floor in front of her and glanced at the presents sprawled out on the floor.
"Why are you up so late?" Her voice filling the silence.
"Just couldn't sleep."
She nodded not wanting to pry.
"Uh...could I help?" He asked hesitantly. Her eyes looked up to his and she smiled.
"Sure! Here."
She handed him the tape and wrapping paper, letting him pick whatever present he wanted. He began to wrap Thor's present. A box of pop tarts, it was to be expected but the whole team made a plan to buy him every flavor since he loved the strawberry ones so much.
"Are you excited for Christmas?"
Y/N asked putting a bow on the top of a box.
"I guess...I'm not a big fan of the holidays. At least not anymore." He whispered the last part. Y/N mentally slapped herself, obviously he was in Hydra during the holidays, he went through horrible things then. It made sense he didn't like it.
"I'm sorry I asked. I didn't mean-"
"Y/N it's okay." Bucky gave her a smile and handed the wrapped present to her.
"I know you didn't mean any harm. It's just...I don't really remember any good Christmas's or any holidays of that matter. Steve says that I was the most holly jolly person on Christmas but I just don't remember that." He sighed and grabbed another present. Y/N reached out and put her hand on his, he met her eyes and she gave a sympathetic look.
"I'm sorry you went through that Bucky, you didn't deserve that. Any of it. But...maybe now you can make new, happier memories. With us."
"Yeah...maybe." He grinned and they both went back to wrapping.

The next morning, it was Christmas. Y/N awoke to shouting in the kitchen, she rushed out of her room and into the kitchen where she saw Tony burning the pancakes.
"Damn it!"
"I told you to flip it!" Steve shouted pushing him out of the way. She rolled her eyes and went back to her room to get ready.
-An Hour Later-
"Okay gather around everyone! Present time!" Wanda announced and started to hand out gifts. One by one everyone opened theirs, laughing, smiling and some crying because of the presents, Thor. It was Bucky's turn, so Y/N handed him a medium sized box and sat down next to him. He thanked her and ripped opened the paper.
"Is this..."
"Yeah. I made it myself, of course with help of Tony." She pointed to the billionaire.
"Wow...you're so talented,thank you." He smiled and sniffed away a few tears. It was a clay model of the Howard's invention, the hovercar which Bucky went to go see in the 40's. She knew he loved things like that and she wanted his first Christmas to be full of happiness, finally getting that flying car.
"I'm glad you like it Bucky." She put a hand on his knee and smiled. Putting and hand over hers, he brought it up to his lips and kissed the back of her hand.
"I love it Doll. This is a Holly Jolly Christmas after all."
