Enemies to Lovers: Bucky X Reader

Chapter 16: Opposites Attract

Bucky's POV:

„Y/N!" I yelled and ran over to her.

She was laying on the floor covered in blood. I didn't even have time to process what had happened, but when I was focusing on Y/N aiming the gun with her shaky hands I was too concentrate to notice someone had entered the room and shot her from behind just as she was about to pull the trigger to kill Rumlow.

Sam had come back and managed to take care of the guy who shot Y/N and I ran over to her. She was panting, barely able to breathe.

„Buck...y" she wheezed.

„It's going to be ok doll, please stay with me, ok?" I said trying to stay calm.

„I... can't...breathe" she continued wheezing and I could see that every breath she took hurt her more and more.

„Shh... you don't need to say anything doll. Promise to stay awake, ok!"

„I'll... try"

I scooped her up into my arms carefully to avoid hurting her any more than necessary.

„Wanda, please kill him for me... for us. I have to take care of her. Make sure Sam is ok over there!" I said and without waiting for a response I ran out of the base.

As her wheezing kept getting worse, I grew more and more concerned. „Fuck..." I mumbled. „Y/N don't you die on me now!"

„...trying...best...but...it... hurts"

„Just a little longer! We're almost at the jet!" I promised. In fact, it was really close. The fighting had begun to slow down so there was nobody trying to keep us from going to the jet.

That was, until we were standing right in front of it.

„Zemo" I growled looking at the man who was blocking our way. Gun in one hand, the fucking notebook in the other hand.

„Oh I don't think so. You know... Rumlow was easy to manipulate, but as I can see he was also easy to kill? I assume you did kill him, after all those things he did to her, didn't you?" he said with a sarcastic tone. He noticed me staring at the notebook with the red star on it. The trigger words were written in there.

„Don't you worry about that Soldier... you won't be effected by them anymore anyway, right? Unless.." he suddenly pulled out his gun and pointed it at Y/N.

„You know... you could just come with me and I won't harm her."

„Fuck you, I will not come with you and go through this shit again!" I growled. As I did, he quickly moved closer to Y/N, now pressing the cold gun right on her forehead.

„I'm not playing around Barnes. Come with me and I won't shoot her."

I sighed and looked at her. She was still wheezing.

„I love you, princess." I whispered.

„Don't... go... Let.. him... take... me... instead..." Y/N wheezed.

„Are you crazy doll? I'm not letting you go through this shit again!" I knew she wanted to change my mind, but she was too weak.

„Can I at least put her in the jet so she is safe?" I begged Zemo.

Zemo looked at me and started laughing. „What are you laughing at?" I growled.

„It's just hilarious... I said I wouldn't shoot her. That doesn't mean I'll let her go."

And then, before I launch at him, everything went black.

***

When I woke up, my first instinct was to check wether Y/N was around. As I opened my eyes I realized I was sitting in a dark room that was only lit by a small desk lamp on the other side of the room. I also noticed I was tightly strapped to a chair and wires attached to my head.
