In which Bucky Barnes goes to the compound to recover and meets a girl who expresses herself by touching and he falls for her.
Problem is, that she's Reese Sloan Stark...Tony starks daughter
Reese's poV Why is it that Bucky is attractive? I felt his sadness, his guilt, his hurt. It was too much for me not to touch him. So I left. It's the next day and I dress in

I throw my hair up in a messy bun and head down to the main kitchen and see Bucky is in there. I walk in and he turns around and I say "it's just me" noting his jumpiness. He relaxes a bit. "Morning Reese" I smile "morning Bucky" he says with a small smile "please...call me james" huh...
I nod "james" I note he's trying to make coffee "you want me to teach you?" He nods "please? It's so...high tech" I nod "my father made it. It makes coffee faster than any maker on the market" I teach him how to make it after asking what he likes. Black with 4 sugars. He says "so you're Tony's daughter" I nod "yeah" "and what I've done doesn't bother you?" He asks his eyebrows furrowed.
"It's not you I would and should be upset with James. It's hydra. They used you as a weapon to kill them. They're who I'd be upset with" I reply. He tells me "but I still did it" "not by choice james. I didn't know the two of them...but I know through digging secretively that Peggy knew and did nothing. She knew about you and did nothing. So if anyones to blame it's her and hydra." I reply. I hand him his coffee and his hand brushes against mine and I take it away and mutter "sorry" "why are you sorry?" He asks "I uh...I shouldn't have. I uh don't want you to be uncomfortable by it" I reply. He says "it's okay. I just uh...need time" I nod "of course" I make my coffee and he asks "so Peggy knew?" I nod "yeah." "And no one knows?" He asks "Steve wouldn't listen. Wanda knows because she can read minds and I haven't told anyone else" I say sipping my coffee. He nods "so you stayed quiet about it because no one would listen" I nod "yup"
"I'll listen" he volunteers. I shake my head "you have enough going on james" "I need a distraction from it and to...find a way to move on I guess" he replies and I ask "and you want my help?" He nods "I guess so...Steve can be overbearing. And you...you're like a breath of fresh air" I nod with a small smile "I'll help"
