Becca:

I stretch as the sun rays through the windows, i look and see no one next to me. I frown worried before getting up and going to the bathroom, i brush my teeth and hair before going to find some clothes. I picked mom jeans and long sleeved crop top. I slip on some air forces before sitting down, i dab primer around my face rubbing it in, then foundation and etc. It was a natural look and it went nicely. I put my nose ring in before plaiting my hair in French braids.

There was a knock on the door and i raised my brow, i didn't plan anything today with anyone. "Hi, what's up?", i ask as i see Okoye, she looks behind me expecting someone. "Is James here? He never came to training this morning", she says in a really calm voice, as if i'm not internally freaking the fuck out. "No i woke up and just assumed he was with you?", i say confused, she nods once before walking off. I raise my brows confused and looked around the room. He wasn't under the bed, in the closet or even his bathroom.

I leave our bedroom and go to the bedroom to our left, nothing though. So i went made my way through all the bedrooms on the left side, 14 doors later i'm at the last one. I've gave up hope of finding him but then i open the door to see him sleeping on the floor with a mere sheet, not a blanket or cover. He sat up just as i opened the door, he looked at me once before snapping his gaze away. "You missed training with Okoye", i say crossing my arms sassily, "not cool, your here to get better not skip like a school boy", i tell him off as he is a child.

"Go away Becca", he says with no emotion, did he not take my joke? "What?", i ask quieter than before. He stands up coming closer, then pushes me out and slams the door in my face. What the actual fuck? I stand there like a dumbass before i pull my shit together and leave. I sit in our room looking at the messy bed and our clothes scattered around. I roll my eyes and start cleaning, i would hate to be the maid for this room.

Once everything is put away nicely i go over to my phone and see i actually have service so i did the only thing a girl does when she has boy problems...she calls her girls. I made a group face time and Wanda, Yelena and Natasha all appear. "HIIIII", Yelena shouts down the mic, i giggle and shake my head. "So what's happening over there?", Nat asks and i shake my head not knowing where to begin.

I told them about me and T'Challa getting on really well, Bucky going with Okoye all the time for the whole being free thing, then how we had sex after he told me to leave. "I'm seriously thinking of leaving, they seem fine enough to handle him", i say sadly, Yelena claps her hands. "YES come back to us we all miss you, even Tony doesn't shut up about you", she laughs and we smile and laugh. "I'll think about it, i think i'm gonna see how it goes for another day or two then determine what's my better options", i say and they nod agreeing, i hear the sound alarm go off meaning they have a mission.

"Bye girls, be safe", i say and hang up as they do. I sit in this huge room alone thinking what the hell i should do. He obviously regrets having sex with me so that's a huge blow, but then it could be something else. I grab a pillow and scream into, feeling my stress go from the max to the middle i feel a bit better. I change into leggings and a tighter shirt and go to the gym where me and T'Challa were yesterday.

I see it's empty and smile happily. I put my airpods in and wrap my hands before i start punching. I don't know how long i was doing this but i soon moved onto the treadmill and did 30 minutes sprinting until my lungs were on fire. I step off breathing heavily, i go to the weights but a hand pulls me back from them. I look at the hand and then the person to see it was Bucky. I take my airpod out and raise a brow. I am so not in the mood to speak with him. "Your going to pass out", he warns, i stare at him with a 'are you serious' look. I shrug and put my airpod back and start piling the weights onto the bar.

Before i could lift Bucky moves it off the mat and looks at me dead serious. I look at him once before i had it and started swinging, he dodged every single one and not once hit me back not even in a sparring way. He was blocking every slap, punch and kick i could muster up, he let his guard down for a second so i swiped his legs making him fall to his knees. "Thought you wanted me to go away, now you won't stop pestering me about if i'm gonna pass out or not. I can handle myself i am not some little girl who needs someone to save her", i spit angrily.

"And i definitely don't need the help of someone who used me for sex", i shout pushing him away from me, he leans down still on his knees looking more annoyed than ever. "You were right", i say turning away from him. "About what?", he asks instantly. "About me leaving, so it's exactly what i'm doing in two days time, i don't want to see you either. I'm only giving this place two more days to spend with T'challa and Shuri when she returns tonight", i say as i unwrap my hands and storm out leaving him there.

"Becca have you seen him?", Okoye asks i roll my eyes and breath. "He's in the gym, unless he's ran away again like the coward he is", i say walking off.
