Steve and Bucky rushed home and did a quick sweep of the house to make sure it wasn't bugged or something was waiting.
Steve called Rain while Bucky arranged extra security around the house and for them selves.
Steve paced waiting for Rain to answer, "Rain?"
Rain giggled, "Hey Steve! Thank you for the card, but you didn't have to give me any money."
Steve smiled hearing her voice, "Angel you're welcome and I did it because I could, but I do need you to come back home."
Rain's voice tensed, "Steve is everything ok?"
Steve looked up to see Bucky making final arrangements, "I don't wanna talk about it over the phone, just come home."
Rain's voice got quiet, "Nat and Wanda are bringing me back now."
Steve sighed, "Good I will explain when you get here."

Rain nearly ran into the house, "Steve?! Bucky?!"
Bucky reached her first and pulled her into a possive hug before kissing her deeply.
Rain kissed him back holding him tightly.
Steve told the 2 women to meet with Sam and Pietro in the kitchen then slid Rain out of Bucky's arms. Rain had tears forming in her eyes. His girl wore her heart on her sleeve, "Rain baby... Please don't cry..."
Rain shook her head, "Steve what's going on?"
Steve held her kissing her softly, "Come here."
Steve lead her to the big room and sat her on the couch, "Rain... Zemo came to the office-"
Rain jumped up, "Was anyone hurt? Do we need to call-"
Steve stood his heart full of love for this woman, "No no one was hurt."
Bucky stood and took her hand, "He told us we need to give you back."
Rain paled, "I..."
Steve caught her as she went to step back, "Rain Creek don't do that... Don't start to run; we told him if he even thought about you too hard we'd end him."
Bucky came up behind her and rubbed her arms, "Baby girl you're stuck with us."
Rain looked up, "But what if-"
Steve stroked her cheek wiping her tears, "There is no what if angel. I will bring hell on anyone who tries to take you from us."
Bucky held her close from behind, "Sweet heart outside of God himself no one will take you from us; and I'll punch his lights out if he does try."
Rain hiccuped, "You're not fighting God for me."
Bucky playfully nipped her ear, "Watch me."
Steve smiled, "We both would."
Rain looked down, "Does this mean no date night?"
Steve chuckled, "It means a little more security for you, but date night is still on."
Bucky grinned, "Rain Creek will you do us the honor of escorting us to dinner and dancing?"
Rain blushed, "I'd be honored."
Steve kissed her deeply, "We're with you till the end no matter what."
