Unfortunately Fortunate [Stucky x Reader]

Chapter 49

"Bucky, sweetheart, loosen my waist a little please." You whisper to him as it is starting to become rather painful.
"I'm sorry." He says, voice apologetic, yet an undercurrent of fury in it for the person that entered with Okoye.

"Who was the asshole that called you that, sweetheart? I'm assume that it was not the lady called Okoye." You ask Bucky as you turn in his arm so you are chest to chest.
"No."
"I'll need a name sweetheart."
"No."
You turn back, feeling Bucky's arms tighten again.
You are 100% sure it is someone from his past.

"Steve, darling?"
"Not risking it, sweetheart, Bucky is furious right now."
You sight before trying to pinpoint where the voice came from as no one in the room even dared to speak, not even Okoye.
"What's your name as I cannot see you as of right now."

"No. He stays silent." Bucky growls.
"So possessive." That man says again. There is an accent to him, and seeing as the room is full of hostility it is someone bad.
"We knew Okoye was here with someone from the Raft. So we knew beforehand that it would be someone that you guys most likely put in there. Considering that Okoye trusts us to keep the guy contained here for until the Raft is fixed, I presume that he doesn't have any extra powers. And since Bucky won't let anyone tell me who it is, I need all the names that were in the Raft so I can try to deduct myself who is standing right there."

"You are blind." It's sounds more a statement than a question.
"For now." You answer.
"I want you to stop talking to him." Bucky growls in your ears. You gulp a little before shutting your mouth, even reluctantly you didn't want to trigger Bucky in radical behaviour due to the guy in front of us.

"We'd like to deposit Helmut Zemo here for the duration of time it takes to fix the Raft. And unknown party has tried out a new weapon, that made to damage parts of the Raft and making it a danger to stay there.
As Zemo is the only one without actually powers, he cannot stay in our make shift prison in Wakanda. T'Challa request to please take him in and keep him alive. He hasn't requested to make him stay in luxury, just a safe, non-torturous environment."

"The decision is Bucky's. He is staying here permanently. And since we currently are on lock down, I'm not making that decision."

In the meantime your mind is racing. Helmut Zemo. The one that controlled Bucky after Hydra, making him do things he didn't want to. A mastermind in manipulations but with the right motivation, just the wrong means to them.

"Bucky, sweetheart, I'm here. Whatever you decide, I'm here. We're here. He can't control you anymore. You know that. We unraveled all that. They don't work anymore so you are in control of yourself and he can't do shit to you."

"I'm glad to hear that The White Wolf is back. I'm sorry that during your stay with us, we were unable to unravel all words. I'm glad she could." Okoye sounds regal yet apologetic.
"Hypothetically speaking, if Zemo were to stay here, where would he reside?" You ask.

"Our floor." Bucky growls out. "That way I can keep an eye on him for most of the times."
"Oh James, I'm almost flattered to be kept an eye out by you."
"Oh you are getting that wrong. We are keeping an eye on you and you want know what will be coming at you when you step out of line once." You smile evilly after saying that.

"And you don't want to get on the wrong side of the three." Tony says, keeping silent how dangerous it could be for Zemo to get on the wrong side, only today having seen how Y/n can be tipped to a more primal, near feral state due to her powers. He wonders what has triggered the change, as it never took over like that.

"That seems to be settled. I could take these four off of your hands, if you'd like. We have been looking around for the woman you have sitting right there."
"Oh, of course. We were going to ask if you could take them."
"I like you. I haven't seen or heard of you but I like you. What is your name?"
"Y/n L/n. Nice to make your acquaintance." You smile in what you hope is the direction of Okoye.
"Nice to meet you to. I'll be going now. I take that Zemo will be staying here. "

"He will. And he will not try anything." You smile and pat on Bucky's metal arm to signal that he is okay and that he can let you go.

Movement from a lot of people before the elevator opens and closes again.

"Ground rules," you start, "at night you are to stay in your room. There should be an ensuite. Jarvis will keep an eye on you when we are not.
No initiating a fight. Training room can be used under supervision by one of us.
Don't underestimate any of us, because that would be bad for you. Yes, Bucky, Steve and I are in a triad relationship, but don't think for a second that is a vulnerability, as that will be result in you have a severe problem in which no one will be able to help you. No bad talking about anyone that live here. Oh, and don't you dare try to control Bucky again because you will not be happy with the consequence that I will hash out to you."  You voice has a snarl in it, as your power seems to resurface due to the possible threat in front of you.

"I am currently blind, but don't think for a second that I am vulnerable then. And you leave the dogs alone."

"Since Y/n was so kind," Tony coughs to hide his grin, " to give you the ground rule, I will show you your room. And explain Jarvis to you."
You hear Tony leave, Natasha and Loki seem to follow if their footsteps are the right indication.

Once the elevator closes, you turn to Bucky.
"Are you okay?" You ask.
"I will be." He sounds short and snappy, but not harsh or unkind.
"What can help you to try and relax a little bit while Zemo is here?"
"I'm going to the training room. Can you and Steve join?"
"Sure."

And that is how you find yourself in the training room hearing Bucky go at it against the next and next boxing bag. You remind yourself to order some more boxing bags because by the end of the night, you are unsure how many will still be alive.

Steve stands next to you, holding your hand.
"He is lost in thought." He whispers.
"Uhu, I don't blame him. If I remember the stories correctly Zemo did a lot of things wrong by being Buck's handler for a while. Him being here now, I'm not sure how that'll end."
"That makes the two of us. Let's try to protect him from any rash decisions." Steve whispers the promise in your ear.
You nod, you will help.
