I achingly wait for her to plop the finishing paint on the canvas.
"Done!"
"Woo!" I cheer, picking her up and spinning her around.
"Finally!"
Her painting's background was black and grey. There was a black ballerina dancing. Straight legs, pointed toes, not a hair out of place. The tutu was dirty and dingy and the shoes were worn. The dancer looked tired. Exhausted even. It represented her. But, there was a mirror, and in that mirror was a new version of her. Wild curls, a new dress, a smile, a man, and color. I was the man in the reflection. Visible but just barely. I was coloring her background. I was putting color in her dark world.

Not exactly what her first brainstorm was, but the painting was still called The Dancing Angel.
"You're so talented" I smile
She just grins and pulls me down on the bed.

She doesn't answer, instead, she kissed on my neck. "I love you, Buck"
"I love you too, Angel" I mumble
She lays her head on my shoulder and I rub her shoulder. "This is gonna hurt like shit"

"You will. You're talented and brilliant. You'll get in"
She sighs and I wipe her fallen tear. "You'll be okay"
"But, will you?" She asks

Doves POV:
"Today is the day!" Bucky laughs
"Does the cap look okay? Do I need to fix the paint?"
"You look great" He spins me around and swoops me up.
"Buck!?" I laugh
"My little graduate"
Bucky instructs me to close my eyes and carries me outside.
"I'm gonna set you down now, keep your eyes closed"
"Okay" I nod
My feet touch the ground and I reach for his hand. They intertwine.
