Chapter 86.

I apologise for my lack of updates on this story. I took a 2 week break for my holidays. I will continue to update once a week, but prepare yourselves my friends. The next few chapters are going to shake things up. Thanks for reading my darlings -A

Y/n POV:

Once Nat had completed my makeup and she herself had gotten ready, she began to herd me downstairs.
"Just tell me what is going on" I giggled as we walked arm in arm towards the elevator. Nat had worn her signature red silk dress. Tight at the waist and bust but beautiful and puffy everywhere else.
"All shall be revealed child" She smirked as we entered the elevator.
"Who are you?" I laughed at her antics,
"Your fairy godmother, all your wishes are about to come true" She continued as the elevator began to descent,
"Please don't tell me I have to get in a pumpkin and be back by midnight" I joked,
"Alright we're here!" She squealed whilst covering my eyes with her manicured hands.
"Woah!" I laughed,
"Relax babes, I got you. Just watch that step there and-" Nat walked me out of the elevator, I knew we were still in Tony's building but I didn't know which level we were on.
"Okay...3,  2,  1!" Nat's hands were removed from my eyes and a pair of double doors were thrown open before me.

I was standing at the top of the staircase for Tony's ball/party room. The room was lit up in a golden glow and there was a dance floor and bar. At the bottom of the staircase stood all the avengers, dressed to the night. As well as the team, Peter Ned and MJ were all in attendance, standing to the side giddily. I noticed peter pretending to meet the avengers in front of MJ and Ned, I mentally reminded myself that they still didn't know he was Spiderman.

"Happy graduation!!" They all cheered in unison.

My eyes glossed over and if it weren't for Nat's arm though mine, pulling me down the staircase, my knees would've buckled. I was in shock, who would organise this for me? Who knew that I had missed graduation? That was when I turned to the stunning woman next to me whom I call my best friend.
"Surprise" She jested with a beaming smile,
"You did this for me?" I whispered,
"I'd do anything for you babes" Nat smiled whilst leaning around to kiss my cheek,
"I love you bestie" I said with a watery smile, attempting to keep the tears at bay.
"Don't you dare cry! Your face is too pretty" Nat threatened,
"Don't worry my makeup is waterproof" I giggled tearily,
"I wasn't talking about the makeup, now go and mingle" She smiled whilst unlinking our arms as we reached the end of the staircase.

Bucky was first to embrace me.
"Doll" Bucky grabbed my hand and leaned down to kiss my knuckles. He was wearing a black suit with his long locks slicked back for the evening.
"My my you clean up well Mr Barnes" I giggled as Bucky pulled me by the hand into his chest. He wrapped his strong and muscular arms around me and I returned the gesture. I found comfort in his scent, wooden and oaky.
"Speak for yourself dolly, you look beautiful" He murmured from above me. We pulled away from our hug and I looked up at him, towering over me with a smile.
"Why thank you, but I still can't believe everyone went to all this trouble.." I said still in shock,
"Why not? Everyone adores you" Bucky fired back,
"Shut up" I brushed off his comment,
"I'm serious, you brighten everyone's day. You heal us literally and mentally. You helped me a lot when I first joined the team.." Bucky trailed off,
"I remember that day" I giggled,
"Oh god.." Bucky chuckled,
"You came in scruffy and glaring. Not talking to anyone except for a few words to Steve" I smiled softly,
"Those were not my finest days" He grumbled with a small smile,
"But then day by day, I hacked down those walls you built so high and look at you now" I beamed at him,
"It sounds childish but you got rid of my nightmares doll, that wasn't your powers. That was your golden soul and pure heart.." Bucky stated,
"So go, enjoy your night because you deserve it. But on one condition..." Bucky smirked,
"Oh no" I laughed,
"I steal your last dance" Bucky said whilst taking my hand in his large one. His palm was rough but smooth at the same time? I don't know how that works but for Bucky it does.
