"Buck? Bucky? ......JAMES BUCHANAN BARNES"
"AHH!" the aforementioned male yelled being tore from his thoughts covering his ears. "Why'd you yell?!"
Mika slumped onto the couch taking a sip of her drink. "you think too much." the two were quiet for a while before Mika spoke again, " you're making a good choice." She placed her drink on the coffee table in front of her and slumped further into the couch looking at the ceiling. "They'll understand. Just give them some time."
Bucky didn't say anything he just looked at her with a straight face. Mika looked at her younger brother, "I'm proud of you... for being brave and making this decision without thinking about others opinion...you will do amazing." Buckys eyes didn't meet hers at any point. Looked everywhere across her face searching for a slight clue of judgement or hatred but only found fondness and sincerity and a hint of sadness.
"I'm sorry." He says as a tear slides down his face. She shook her head, "you have nothing to be sorry for." Another tear falls,"I've upset you." Shaking her head again she smiles sadly, "no Squirt, I'm just going to miss you so much." Mika scoots closer to her brother and hugs him making sure to rub his back and pat his head to ease him.
She pulled away from the hug a bit but kept her hands on his shoulders, " can I ask, what made you make that decision?" Bucky sighed, "I-i just-" Mika looked at him with a small smile seeing what he was trying to say through his eyes. No proper words needed to be communicated for her to know, "I get what you mean" she hugged him again.
In the next room the elders of the house sit together praying silently for the well being of their children. Praying those with higher power will watch over the two and keep them out of harms way.

Tony finally got out of bed at around 5pm. He had been awake for a few hours but just couldn't bring himself to get out of bed. He got into the shower and a new set of clothes before heading downstairs.
"Good evening parents!" he says arriving downstairs to find the two about to head out. "Tony you've been in bed all day!" his mom says as she fixes her coat in the mirror they had by the entrance. "I wasn't in there all day. It's only 5pm, the sun is still out so not all day just most of it." Tony says, Maria rolled her eyes, "Smartass, your father and I are going out for a little date night, I left food in the oven for you in case you felt to need to finally come out of that cave of yours." She says turning towards him and and messing with his hair a bit.
"Okay, can I have a friend over tonight?" He asks as he fixes a loose strand of her hair. "A friend or Bucky?" she asks with a slight glare. "Mmmmmmm maybe both idk i'll see if Pepper or someone wants to come over too" he shrugs, still glaring she looks him up and down while walking to the door, "uh huh, well you can have him over but make sure to use prot-" Tony covers his ears and starts yelling, while walking in a circle in the hallway, "LALALALALALLALALALALAL I CANT HEAR YOUUU LALALALALLALALAL" Maria laughs evilly walking out the door by.
When he heard the door close he uncovers his ears and sighs "geez that woman is incredible. I love my mom." he walks over to the kitchen and takes out the glass dish filled with lasagna. He grabbed a plate and served himself food and putting the rest of it away for later.
"I was going to do something today....what was it?" Tony says as he stand in the middle of the family room, scratching the back of his head. He shrugged and sat on the couch watching a random sitcom that was being aired.

Bucky was tired of laying in his bed. Ever since the nice recruiter came by and he told him his decision he could help but wonder if his choice was the right one.
It was now nearing 6pm when he looked out his window. He watched the light of what he assumed to be from the TV reflect off the glass. 'I should tell him' he thought.
'I really hope he understands.'
