"Can we go back to bed now..?" Bucky looked back up at you, his eyes finally showing a little less pain. You nodded quickly.
"Of course. Let's go." You slowly stood up and helped Bucky to his feet, wearily leading him back to your bedroom. Buck wiped what was left of his tears away as you walked. You crawled back under the warm covers and Bucky followed you, instinctively wrapping his arms around you, it was then that you felt safe- like nothing in the entire universe could get to you- because Bucky had you. It was obvious that he sure as hell wasn't letting go either.
"I'm so lucky to have you..." His voice was heavy with tiredness, you felt his warm breath on your neck, it made you shiver.
"And I'm lucky to have you too." You smiled to yourself. The room fell silent again.
"Doll..?"
"Mh?"
"I know it sounds weird... But can you play a song? Or something. I just- I can't sleep." He sounded embarrassed, your fingers found their way back to his hair,
"Oh of course, anything-" you then leant over and flicked the radio on like he had asked, the song 'Hold onto me' started to play,
"Our song..." He mumbled, you could practically hear the smirk in his voice, a light blush littered your cheeks.
'I know I've got my problems and it starts with me, she saw something inside that I can't see.'
He nuzzled into your neck contently. "Hm.."
'And late at night she'll comfort me, hold onto me, hold onto me.
I got a nervous habit and I drink too much, she said she hates her life and wants to change her ways. I wake in the night and whisper oh so quiet, hold onto me , hold onto me, don't you ever leave, don't you ever leave,'
It perfectly described the pair of you, Bucky naturally slid a hand down past your waist and pulled one of your legs over his torso.
'I know I've got my problems and it's probably me, so hold onto me, hold onto me.'
You inhale deeply, Buck's rich, minty scent crept up your nose, it was comforting. After a while his breathing slowed back to normal and he fell asleep, still holding you as tight as ever.
'Hold onto me, hold onto me, just stay with me, just stay with me,'
It was moments like this you could live in forever.
'I could never leave. I will never leave. So hold onto me, hold onto me.'
Your eyes grew heavy and you let reality fade away, Bucky never let you go. You didn't expect him to.
