Steve's POV:

After leaving Buckys room, Steve heads to his own. When he enters he sees Nat sitting on the bed reading.

"How is he?" Nat asks as she saves her place in the book and closes it.

Steve sits down on the bed. "Not good, he shouted at me to leave him alone."

"I think that's what he needs right now, is to be alone. I know you like to help people Steve but sometimes you can't. Sometimes you've just gotta let people heal on their own, even the people you care about the most." Nat explains sadly.

Steve stands up and paces around the room. "I just can't help it sometimes, especially with him. He helped me out so much when we were younger, now I feel like I have to repay him."

"Exactly babe! Bucky has never had a moment of peace or alone time. In the 40's he spent most of his time protecting you, helping to provide for his family and going to fight in the war. Then there was Hydra, the Avengers and losing Aurora. He's been through a lot, he just needs time to himself to process it all. Theres nothing we can do or say to make him feel better. The best thing for him right now is to be alone." Nat explains.

Steve groans, he knows his girlfriend is right. "I guess you're right, I'll leave him be, for now. But I'm still going to check up on him everyday, I need to make sure he is at least eating and drinking water."

"I wouldn't expect anything less from you, you care too much you big doofus." Nat kisses his cheek. "Try get some sleep ok? As much as you want to take care of Bucky, you have to take care of yourself too."

"Yeah, yeah..." Steve takes off his clothes and puts on a pair of blue sweatpants. He crawls into bed and pulls Nat close. "I'm lucky I have you, I would not survive without you."

Steve falls asleep in a restless sleep, he can't stop thinking about everything that happened today, it's been a long ass day. He finally settles down enough to get a couple hours of sleep.

Bucky's POV:

Bucky is lying in bed staring at the wall, Steve has been checking up on him, bringing him food and water. He appreciates it but he just doesn't have the appetite to eat, he's at least been drinking the water though. He hears somebody walk into his room, he doesn't even bother to look away from the wall. He knows it's probably Steve bringing him some food or something.

"Are you naked?" Natasha asks.

Bucky looks over to Natasha in surprise, he wasn't expecting her. "No I'm not naked, I'm just not wearing a shirt, weirdo."

"I'm not the weird one here, you're not wearing a shirt, that's weird." Nat argues.

Bucky rolls his eyes, he gets out of bed and picks up his shirt that was on the floor, and puts it on. "There are you happy?"

He notices nat is holding what looks to be a lunch bag. "Where is Steve?"

Nat leans against the wall, watching Bucky clean his room up a bit."He's out on a mission, so he asked me to bring you some food. It's not like you're going to eat it though."
