Caitlyn

Gone Like The Wind

I sat on the floor crying. "He's gone!" I sobbed. I ugly cried and I didn't care who saw me. "He's not going to come back," I say still sobbing.

Bucky comes in, "He will Caitlyn, he will." Natasha says he same thing. I run into my bed room and bury myself under my covers. Steve told Bucky and Natasha to look after me when he's gone. Bucky because he's close to Steve and is practically my uncle. Natasha because she's been through what I have and in a girl's point of view.

He's not coming back, he's gone. Forever. I take out my phone and scroll through all the pictures we took together. The funny faces, the I-didn't-know-you-were-taking-a-photo pictures. They we all like ghosts, surrounding me. Haunting me.

"He will come back," Natasha says sitting on my bed and taking the covers off of me.

"How do you know?" I ask clenching my pillow.

"Gut feeling," she says. I lay back down and sigh.

"He's going to die!" I scream. Is he going to die? Why is he doing this? I hate this! Am I over reacting? No I'm not. I just love him very much and I can't see him go. I don't want to see him go. Why now? Why me? Why him? How? I wipe some of the tears off my face and get up.

>>>STEVE'S POV<<<
I clenched my Valentine's Day note and candies. I don't want to do this. But I have to, it's my job, my duty, my life. I'm going to miss her, I miss her already! "Put your shoes and electronics in the bin," the officer at the airport said. I put my shoes, note, phone and candies in the bin and get in line.

>>>CAIT'S POV<<<
I walk past Bucky and Natasha. "What do we do?" Bucky asks Natasha in a whisper.

"Just do normal stuff to get her mind off it," she whispers back. I make myself a bowl of cereal and sit down. Bucky and Natasha sit with me.

You know he has to do this, it's his job," Bucky says. "I know," I mumble playing with my cereal.

>>>STEVE'S POV<<<
I get on the plane and find my seat. I feel a hand on my shoulder. "How's it going Speed Racer," I look back and see Sam.

"Oh, hey Sam," I say sighing.

"What's wrong?"

"Caitlyn," I say as he sits in the seat next to mine.

"Drove you so crazy you had to fly away from her?" He kids.

"No. I was assigned to go to California," I take out my phone and text Cait.

Hey doll! I just got on my plane, I miss you. -Steve

>>>CAIT'S POV<<<
Buzz. Buzz. Buzz. My phone vibrates. "Steve just texted me," I tell them.

"What did he say Cait?" Bucky asks curiously.

"Hey doll, I just got on my plane. I miss you. -Steve" I read. I text back.
Hi Steve. I miss you too, Nat and Uncle Bucky are taking care of me and I hope you land safely.

I'm feel horrible that I can't be with you. I'm going to be in San Francisco for at least a month.
San Francisco? "Is Steve going to be in San Francisco?"

"Yeah why?" Bucky says getting his toast out of the toaster.

"That's where Zac lives!" I yell.

"Who's Zac?"

"Zac is Caitlyn's boyfriend who moved to California and his friend took his job and now works with Cait. The friend is flirting with her but she is in a relationship with Zac, the boy in California," Natasha explains. Well that's basically this story in a nutshell.

I text back.
STEVE! THAT'S WHERE ZAC LIVES!!!
Send.

>>>STEVE'S POV<<<
Zac lives there? Great. Now Cait will beg me to track him down and let her talk to him via Face Time.
Can you see if you can I can talk to him over video chat?
What'd I say?
Cait, I'll try but time zones. I'm going to be 3 hours behind you guys.

Okay...I gotta go. Bucky apparently had plans for today. Love you!

Okay, bye. Love you too!

>>>CAIT'S POV<<
"So what are the plans for today?" I ask grabbing clothes to wear.

"How about a trip to Times Square?" he suggests.

"Sounds good! Natasha?"

"I'm down."

"Cool, I'm going to change," I run into the bathroom with my outfit.

                           ~Time Jump~

I just got back from Time Square and had a good time. Bucky's arm fell off but nothing Tony Stark couldn't fit. Natasha got a caramel frappechino(sorry I can't spell half of the things at Starbucks sooo) at Starbucks and nearly burnt her lip off. Well that's all for now.
