Otherwise Known As... | Bucky Barnes

Chapter (66) Sixty-Six ~ ...your crazy aunt

"Jamie, you've gotta let me go. I've gotta help Tony's girl with something back in the States." I chuckled

"Five more minutes." He grumbled, pulling himself closer to me.

"Come on, James," I smirked, pushing his long hair away from his face.

"Fine, fine." He reluctantly let me go, moving so he was lying on his back.

"Freedom!" I jokingly cheered, quickly getting up. "I'll be back by tomorrow at the latest. You and Steve aren't allowed to do anything stupid while I'm gone." I gave him a pointed look as I walked to the door.

"Yeah, yeah." Bucky slowly got up, rubbing his eyes.

"You know," He started, gaining my attention as I opened the large door. "I don't think I've slept that well since 1943."

"Well, I'm glad I had a part in helping you get a proper night's rest." I gently smiled.

I paused momentarily at the door, taking a second to decide if I had enough balls to do what my mind was screaming at me.

I took a deep breath, quickly making my way back to Bucky, and grabbed his jaw, moving his face and kissing his right cheek. I felt his face heat up as I slowly moved away, his face now a pretty shade of pink.

"I'll see you tomorrow," I smirked, finally moving away from a now dazed Bucky, leaving the room and shutting the door behind me.

After showering and getting ready in my room, I went down to the kitchens, grabbed some interesting-looking fruits, and then headed to Shuri's lab.

"Hey, guys." I greeted T'Challa, Shuri, and Steve.

"Hello, Olivia. How are you this morning." The young girl smiled at me, moving around her lab while the two men talked amongst themselves.

"I'm okay. I got a call from Avery last night, Steve. She said she needed my help with something, so I'm going to head over soon."

"What's she need help with?"

"She made a new version of the Accords and is trying to present them to the UN today. She asked for some backup."

"Have you read them? Are they any good?" Steve asked, walking up to me.

"Yeah, she did a really good job. I think you'd like it." I smiled at him.

"Send me a copy of it. I'll take a look." Steve nodded. "Can I get a ride, while you're at it?"

"Sure, where to?"

"The raft. We're getting them all out. Today."

"Hey, when you get to the States, can you put these in the mail for Tony?" Steve asked, handing me a letter and a flip phone.

"Yeah, sure. Might add my own letter, if you don't mind."

"Of course. I'd never stop you from talking to Tony."

"I know. Just didn't want to impose." I shrugged.

Steve and I parted ways then, having been walking around the castle while Shuri did some scans and tests of Bucky's brain. She tried to do it when we were with them, but something kept interfering with her results, so she kicked us out. I started making my way to the palace library, which I knew had some pens and papers for me to use.

Dear Tony,

I know I've never written you a letter before, but Steve went ahead and did one, so I felt like giving you one too. I wanna start this by saying to read Steve's letter first. He had more of a purpose in writing, and I don't wanna step on his thing. So if you haven't read his yet, do me a favor and do that now.
