Who's the Real Monster (Avengers Fanfiction)

Reunited

To say Steve had been enthusiastic on the phone would be an understatement.

I could hear the excitement in his voice, but he seemed a bit saddened when Bucky requested that Natasha come to pick us up.

Pietro seemed saddened when Bucky added, "And only Natasha," before hanging up the phone call.

Natasha showed up the next day in a sports car, Bucky seemed displeased at that.

"Get in losers, we're going home," she had called, sunglasses on her face.

"Shotgun!" I called, getting in the front seat.

"Why does she get the front seat?" Pietro complained.

"Because she's a dame," was all Bucky had to say as he climbed into the seat behind me.

Pietro then proceeded to complain for the entire ride back that Natasha wouldn't move her seat up.

We finally arrived at the new base just after seven thirty in the evening.

Pietro practically threw himself out of the car to get to Wanda, who was standing near the door.

Pietro picked her up and spun her around before giving her a tight hug.

Wanda was in tears.

I stretched my legs against the car when I got out, Bucky leaned against the car beside me.

"They seem close," he observed.

"They were all they had before," Natasha informed as she got out. Her sunglasses were folded in her shirt.

Bucky only gave her a glance of acknowledgment before watching me.

He seemed nervous.

"It's going to be fine Buck," I assured him quietly as Natasha walked past the twins and into the house.

It didn't take long after that for Steve to come out of the house, he seemed skittish as he locked eyes with Bucky.

I could see the other man, Sam, from before, 'sneakily' watching from the window.

"Hey Buck," Steve said as he stopped in front of Bucky.

I gave Bucky a nudge from behind when he didn't respond.

"Hey Steve," was all he said.

They stood there in silence for a few moments.

"Well, this is painful. I'm going inside," I said.

Bucky shot me a panicked glare.

I only gave him a smile as I walked away.

Pietro held the door open for Wanda and I to enter.

"Hey Pietro, you look good," Steve called.

"Fuck you Captain, I walked it off," was all Pietro said before closing the door behind us.

Wanda scolded him as I laughed.

Everyone else was at the new dinner table eating homemade burgers and fries.

I wouldn't trade my pack for anything.
