Winter FLame

Part 5

The blush creeping up her face was adorable. She was genuinely shocked and embarrassed at what Sam said to her. I wonder if she'll blush when she finds out she's going to spar with me instead of Steve today. Bucky thought to himself.

"Y/n, I'm going to have you spar with Buck today. You've gotten really good and can read my moves to almost the next one I'm going to make. I want to see how you do against someone new." Steve says to her.

Watching her face I see the blush flare back to life. She nods once and heads to the mat. She does a few stretches and then jumps a couple of times. She gets into a fighting stance just as my feet make their way onto the mat. I square up with her and start to say something when she comes at me fast. Shit she's fast. I side step her and grab her left wrist and spin her so she's pinned to my chest with her arm behind her back. She huffs in frustration and is quick to move out of my hold. She squares up again and this time I charge her. She anticipates my left hook and ducks, swinging a leg out to swipe mine from under me. I hit on my back and let out a little huff of air. She doesn't give me any time before she's on me and swinging a fist down to try and connect with my chin. I move my head at the last second and I feel the impact of her hit next to my head. I flip us and we roll twice before she has me in a shoulder lock. She pulls back and I tap her thigh to let her know its done.

She stands up slowly and starts to walk away when I take the opportunity to run and slide. Coming between her legs and bringing her down and pinning her under me. She looks up at me with a shocked expression and then grins. She throws a left hook catching me on the cheek bone. The force toppling me to the side. She takes the opportunity to straddle me and starts raining punches down on me. I keep my arms up, blocking her blows. They are getting harder and harder as she's letting her strength go. With her so lost in the punches I throw my legs up and wrap them around her chest and throw her back onto the mat. She grunts as the air leaves her lungs and she doesn't have time to recover before I have her in an ankle lock. She realizes she's beat so she taps on my thigh. I let her go and she stands quickly.

"Whoa sweetheart. It's over." Steve says jumping in front of her. I must of missed something for him to do that.

"I thought it was too then the oaf started it again." She sasses.

"You busted his cheek open with that left hook. How hard did you hit him?" Sam asks with a shit eating grin on his face.

I put my fingers to my cheek and come away with blood. I look up at her and she looks terrified. A million thoughts running through her head. "I...I didn't mean to. Oh god im so sorry." She stammers.

"It's okay Doll. I had it coming." I laugh softly.

Her breathing quickens and I see her starting to panic. I walk over to her and Steve, wiping my cheek with the back of my hand. "It'll heal in no time. Don't panic" I say holding my hands up to her to let her know I'm not mad at her.

She looks me over once before walking towards me. He hand reaches out and I stand absolutely still as she touches my cheek. Her eye color blowing out a vibrant blue, consuming her eyes completely. Suddenly I feel a warmth and then she hand is gone. I reach up and touch my cheek, the wound healed and the skin perfect and smooth again.

Everyone lets out a collective gasp. It's the first time she's used her abilities around us. I smile at her and thank her. She nods and walks away. Everyone letting her go. I look over at Steve and he's just as surprised as I am.

"Buck, she trusts you." Steve says clapping me on the back.

"apparently so." I say softly still touching my cheek.

Nat walks up and says, "If you hadn't have gotten her into that ankle lock she'd have used her abilities to do some damage. It scared her."

"What do you mean?" I ask looking at her confused.

"Her eyes, they blew out like that right before you flung her back." She says looking to where Y/N walked off.

"I need to start training with her." Wanda said suddenly running off in the direction Y/N walked.

Us left standing there all trading a look of shock and excitement.
