"Peter is everything ok" wanda asked as we drove back to the compound, we had been away in london far longer than i had liked on the last mission and due to having to remain secret of where i was i couldn't use my phone so being able to use to for the first time in a week and seeing the sos from bucky which was a week old i was struggling to breath, he knew i was on a mission but had still messaged me with an sos? what had been so desperate that he needed me of all people?. i showed wanda the message knwoing that she would know better then me what to do with it "is there anything else" she aksed her voice a mix of worry and anger "no thats it just an sos which a week old" i said my voice shaking, in the car with s was Natasha and bruce who knew who bucky was by this point and had sworn not to say anything to mr stark as i didnt want him knowing yet, unsure of how to come out to him as gay. "Peter dont worry there would have been more if something had happened" Bruce tried but in my panic I snapped at him "you don't know that, what if there hasn't been any more messages because he can't message at all!!" i realised who i was yelling at and sunk further in my seat grabbing my knees "i'm sorry i just need to know if he's ok" there was silence in the car for a while as the others shared looks that i couldn't see, there was so many things that he could have been sending that message for, i ran them all over in my mind one after the other but none of them made sense as to why he would message me of all people, especially when i was away on a mission and unable to get to him. "where would he be'' natasha asked me breaking the silence, i thought about it for a moment "the only place i can think is the gym at school" i said, bucky was always saying about his gym routine, the only thing he was truly proud of in his life but he didn't have the money to go to a proper gym so he used the old one at school, i always told him to use the one at the compound with me as it was the latest edition of everything and mr stark liked bucky, thinking we were good friends he let bucky train with me whenever i got the chance to, but he always said that he didn't want to use me like that. Wanda swung the car around and sped towards the school and I just prayed that Bucky was still there.

This bag was going to split if i kept putting all my weight into these punches, i thought to myself as i landed another punch into the ageing punching bag, ever since that night a week ago with my mum, i had been spending every evening here, punching my anger and stress out in the schools old and musty gym, not stopping until the janitor was locking up late at night. Everything has changed since that day, i had suddenly become responsible for my mum who couldn't void her pregnancy and couldn't work as she was too pregnant to be a stripper, the one thing she said she was actually good at meaning that i was now responsible for providing for the family, working 14hr weekends and any hours i could after school tutoring kids meant that i was making enough to feed us but not much more, i swung a roundhouse into the bag feeling the bag shake under my force but it did make me feel better. the bang in the hall way finally made me stop kicking and punching reaching for my shirt when i heard it, the light steps and his voice echoing my name through the halls almost made my knees buckle under me, i threw my shirt down and bolted for the gym doors, they were locked and he wouldn't be able to get in, i shoved the off button on the speaker that was blasting music through my ears and snapped the bolt on the door throwing it open to see him standing 5 feet away from me, still in his avenger costume and his eyes red from what looked like tears, he stared for just a second before bolting to me and my heart swelled ina way it never had before but i didn't even feel it as i embraced the man i loved.

The doors flew open to the gym, they had been shut as i rounded the corner and as i ran to them i debated weather i would be able to shatter them with my spider strength when they flew open and i saw him, bucky was stood there without a shirt, sweat dripping down all his abs and muscles that i couldn't even name, his eyes wide just 5 feet in front of me, he was perfectly fine, no injuries apart from the bruising on his knuckles which meant he had been trying too hard again, i didn't even wait to hear him speak as i bolted to him, throwing myself into his open arms and pulling him close to me not wanting to ever let go "bucky thank god" i said my voice breaking with relief as i clung to him, afraid that if i let him go he would disappear into the wind "peter what are you doing here, what's wrong?" bucky asked, pulling away just enough to look at me, his hand tracing my jaw checking me for wounds that weren't there, i laughed in shock and utter relief that still continued to wash over me "are you kidding me?, you message me and sos a week ago with nothing else while i'm away on a mission and you're asking whats wrong?" hsi eyes widened realising what i was talking about and looked at me again in the eyes, his stunning eyes showing all of his concern "i'm so sorry for doing that to you i just.." he stopped as if he couldn't say it "hey you don't have to talk about it yet" i said pulling away "i'm just glad your ok, you scared me half to death" he chuckled "yeah well you left me for longer then you said so i suppose were even, you look good in the suit by the way" he looked me up and down and i suddenly felt very exposed "yeah well clearly i was away longer, what are even half of those muscles you've developed" i laughed so glad that he was joking around even though his eyes told me he was hurting "i'll let you explore that someday" he winked at me pulling me into his arms again and i hadn't felt so safe since i left him "thank you for coming" he mumbled into my neck, the smell of sweat and grease filling his hair and i wondered what he had been doing while i was away "of course buck, i'm here for you, no matter what"
