Baby Avengers

Night terrors

Bucky's POV:

I woke up feeling slightly movement against my chest. I looked down and saw Wanda sobbing quietly whilst Pietro comforted her. "Hey sweetheart, what's wrong?" I asked. They both looked at me and instantly panicked. "I- Im sowwy fo waking you..." Wanda mouthed. "Pwease no hit.." Pietro whispered. I sat up properly and pulled the both of them into me.
"No no, sweethearts. I would never hit you two for absolutely any reason. What happened sweetheart?" I asked, feeling that it was probably a nightmare, "Was it a nightmare?" I added. Wanda nodded.
"Aww.. it's okay, sweetheart. It's not real, it's okay your safe with me and everyone else. Come on, we should go to the kitchen and calm down." I smiled warmly. The both nodded shyly and I picked them and we left for the kitchen. It started raining as we got closer to the kitchen.

We walked quietly to the kitchen, making sure to wake no one up. We got to the elevator. "Hello, Mr Barnes. Where would you like to go?" FRIDAY asked. She startled the kids a little but they relaxed straight after once they clung onto me for dear life. "The kitchen please." I reply. The elevator moves and before you know it, we are in the kitchen.

I take the kids and sit them on the counter. "Shall we make cookies?" I ask and see them nod shyly, "You guys wanna help?" I ask again and they nod. I grabbed everything I needed and started to make the cookies with very little help from the twins, they'd mainly try and eat the dough. After a while I finished and put them into to oven. I walked over to the twins. "Right so who wants to watch TV whilst we wait?" I asked, they both nodded excitedly.

I picked them up and carried them to the couch. I grabbed a remote and scrolled through some cartoons till Tom and Jerry popped up and they both looked satisfied with it, laughing at all the funny parts. I smiled before walking back into the kitchen to clean up some stuff before taking out the cookies.

A little later they were done and they smelt amazing! I set them down and let them cool of while walking to get some milk and heat it up for us. The rain got heavier and it sounded amazing. I walked back to the kids and smiled when I saw them cuddled up together. "Hey, kiddos. The cookies are done but we need to wait for them to cook of." The looked at me, smiled and nodded. I smile back. I look at the windows and just stare at the rain going down whilst the twins watch the TV.

Rain has always been a comfort thing to me, for as long as I can remember. Where I was being kept (the twins where there two but only for a few years when they where younger but then moved to a different HYDRA base.") it rained quite a bit, after a long day of torture, listening to rain at night became a comfort thing to me.

I look back at the the twins before walking back to the kitchen. I grab three cookies, and 3 glasses of milk and warm them up slightly, not enough to burn the twins but enough to make them warmer. I carry them out and walk back to the twins, "Here you go, sweethearts." I tell them as I gently place the cookies and milk down and sit in between them.

After a little they have both fallen asleep against me, "Hey F.R.I.D.A.Y. What time is it?" I ask looking down at the twins before looking back up. "It is 4:47am sir. You guys have been down here for just over an hour." I sigh and look down at the twins, I smile at the sight of the two twins resting on my chest and there arms are tangled with each other. They are just so adorable.. eventually my eyes start to get heavy and I feel into a dreamless sleep.

————————The next day—————————

I woke up alone on the couch. I panicked, wondering where the twins where but then I heard laughing coming from the kitchen. I stand up and walk in.

I see Peter covered in flour, Tony giggling and the twins a laughing at him, the twins where in the counter. "Should I even I ask?" I questioned as they slowly stopped giggling and laughing. "Nope." Tony replied. I looked at the wall for the timetable.

Yes, there is a timetable for training. Everyday is some people new. Friday and is everyone with one person in charge (someone new every Friday.) Saturday is for anyone, you don't have to train but you can. And Sunday is a break from everyone you can train if you want but that's the day where missions are less common so we have decided to use that day as a family day. We play games throughout out the day and movie marathons at night. And guess what, today is Friday.

"What do we do today then? It's supposed to be a full group training today and the leader is Pietro." I ask turning my attention back to Tony. He sighs, "I'm not sure. I doubt baby Pietro would be able to run a training class. We should probably cancel the training sessions where it's a group one for now as we can't do much." Tony replies. Me and Peter both nod.

"You made cookies last night?" Peter asked me after dusting some more flour of his face and shirt. "Yea I did. Little witch had a nightmare and they were afraid I'd hurt them. I took them down here, let them watch Tom and Jerry while they waited for the cookies. Then they feel asleep against me." I reply. Peter nods and excuses himself to go get cleaned of. Just at that moment all the others walked in. "Morning." Nat called out to them. Me and Stark nodded our heads.

I glanced at the twins and saw them crawl over and slightly hid behind me. I smiled warmly at them and kissed their foreheads noticing how they were panicking. Stark told them about training being cancelled because baby Pietro probably can't run a class. They all nodded and they started a conversation about a cure. "Bubby.." Pietro barely got out over a whisper. I turn to look at him. "What's the matter sweetheart?" I ask but then notice they are both shivering, "Are you two cold?" The nodded. I smiled and walked into the living room where a spare blanket is, walked back to the the kitchen and placed a blanket around the both of them. They smiled and huddled into each other.

I kissed their heads and turned to the group having a conversation. "That long? I knew it was gonna be long but not that long." Loki asked. Tony and Bruce nodded. I turned my attention to everyone keeping an arm around the twins, "How long?" I asked. Nat looked at me, "The minimum would be a year to find a cure. Maximum.. we could be looking at something close to 3 years." She replied. "What? Why that long?" I ask again. "Well, this was a special project and since it wasn't completed yet it will take longer to find a cure especially since there is no project left. But no matter what, this is gonna be tough for the next year or so." Tony replied. We all nodded in agreement.

This will be a long year..
