With Him | Bucky x Reader | Enemies with Benefits

-86-

Bucky's POV:

So far we were holding up. How? I have no clue.

My balance was fucked up due to the little boy clinging on to me. and the fact that I'd been shot in the leg wasn't helping either. Steve seemed to be doing alright but we needed the others to get here, and quickly.

I didn't even know how long it had been since we'd activated The Pebbles, but however long it was, it was far too long. We were both growing tired and despite managing to hold off the unknown enemy in front of us, it didn't look like we could get out of this any time soon. Not without help.

As each of the enemy men approached me I tried to make out the logo on their chests (before shooting them square in the forehead of course). Every so often I would hear Vanya whisper something in my ear but I could rarely make out what it was. 

I paused for just a second to think and almost had my nose cut off by somebody's knife, I wish Tony would hurry up.

With that, I heard a crash further down the hallway, a shining red and gold suit had broken through the concrete wall.

"What the fuck, Barnes? If you've cheated on Y/n then I'm going to kill you myself." His voice echoed off the walls.

"Good to know she's got a good support network." I grunted, kicking a soldier in the gut and watching them fall down. "You didn't let her come did you?"

"Yeah she's just down the corrid- of course I didn't." He responded, sending a blast right next to my head, taking out another foe. "She's three months pregnant, I'm a genius, don't forget it."

I quietly mocked him under my breath, causing Vanya to look up at me "Он враг?" (Is he the enemy?) he asked, his face still pressed into my shoulder.

"К сожалению, нет" (Unfortunately not.) I answered. 

The men in front of me began to part, allowing someone to walk through the middle of them but I didn't let it deter me. I felt an arm hook itself around my neck and apply pressure to my windpipe. Shit.

Unable to kick the soldier without losing balance - I started to panic. Black filled the corners of my vision.

Shit.
Shit.
Shit.

Then - just as quickly as he had attacked - he released me. 

"Nice going Kid." Tony's voice rang out.

"What the fuck?" said my attacker, holding his hand. I took the opportunity and kicked him in the balls before shooting him through the chest and looking down at Vanya.

"Вы его укусили?" (Did you bite him?) I asked, confused.

He looked up at me with a tiny smile. "Я не понимаю, о чем вы говорите." (I don't know what you're talking about.) before resting his little head back on my shoulder. I just stared at the confusing Russian child, His black hair matted and his blue eyes tired. I recognized that look.

Then I heard a thud. My ears pricked up and I was drawn out of my thoughts.

The sound of Tony's Blaster's echoed down the hall. The opposition ran.

The world stood still.

And Steve's body lay in front of me.
