I stormed into the Avenger's living room and sat down onto the couch dramatically right in between Bucky and Sam and let out a long sigh. Bucky and Sam both looked down at me.   "Should we even ask?" Sam sarcastically asked and I rolled my eyes and leaned on Bucky's shoulder.

"Let's just say it's been a long day." I mumbled and Steve walked into the room with a book and a cup of coffee, he smiled up at all of us and then noticed I was upset. "Should I bother to ask?" He said and I rolled my eyes and let out another sigh of defeat.

"Probably not, It's just been a rough day." I said and Bucky rubbed my shoulder. Bucky always listens to my problems and I truly love him for that. Sam and Steve always get annoyed with me, but Bucky never does, he is my best friend because of this.

Bucky Barnes Point of View: "Can you turn he TV down, man?" I asked Sam since he had the remote. "Yeah, sure man." he said and turned it up. "You know, the longer I hang out with you the more I hate you." I mumbled and he laughed.

Daniella stormed inside the room and my mood was instantly lifted. I smiled at her, but I realized she was upset. She sat down next to me and huffed. I turned my head to her and she was looking down at the ground. "Should we even ask?" Sam said pretty rudely to her and she just rolled her eyes and mumbled. "Let's just say it's been a long day." She mumbled and I put my arm around her.

She leaned her head on my shoulder and I smiled. Steve walked in and when he noticed Daniella was upset I saw him internally sigh. He called for Sam and they both left the living room leaving Dani and I.

"Wanna talk about it?" I asked and she shook her head. "I don't want to bother you with it Barnes, I feel like I annoy you with it all." She said, but she could never annoy me. I don't think there has been a single time where I didn't want to talk to her.

"Go ahead, whatever it is has you really upset." I smiled at her and she handed me her phone. There was an email or something, I read it over and it says she can't go on any missions until her broken foot is fixed. "This is what you're upset about?" I laughed and she looked at me with a serious face.

"Yes. I am upset about that Bucky." She said and stood up. She broke her foot on a mission last week, the enemy pushed her off a building, and Spider-Man webbed her and caught her by her foot which broke it. I'm sort of happy to see this news because then I'll know she's safe.

"Look, your foot will be healed in only four short weeks." I tried to reason  with he but she started to limp out of the room. I followed her and she headed to the kitchen, "Dani..." I trailed off and she turned around and sighed again.

"I guess I'm happy about the time off, I just know I'm going to be bored out of my mind."

"You live in a tower with all of earth's mightiest heroes, trust me, that won't happen. Plus, I have a few vacation days I can use and we can spend the day together." I rambled on and she smiled.

"You'd do that for me?" She asked in disbelief, but honestly, I'd do anything for her. She doesn't even have to ask and I'd do anything. "Of coarse, I wouldn't want you to have to spend the day with Tony, man, that guy is a geek."  I joked and she giggled and pushed me lightly.

We walked to the kitchen and Natasha was there, we are pretty close. I shot her, a few times actually. So, that's always a conversation starter.

Daniella started to talk with her and I just admired her from afar. "Bucky, could you please get that for me?" Nat asked and I nodded, she only asked me because I was the tallest. I helped her grab something and her and Dani kept talking.

I decided I'd leave the room and let them talk since Dani didn't need me.

Daniella's Point of View: Bucky walked out of the room and I felt a little bad, I know he's not the best at making conversation so I felt guilty I didn't include him with Natasha. "I'm so sorry Nat, I'm going to go talk to Bucky." I said and excused myself.

I walked out of the kitchen and saw Bucky walking away with a  frown on his face. "Barnes!" I called and he turned around smiling. "You walked out on me?" I said shoved him lightly and he smiled. "I thought you forgot about me." he joked, "Never." I smiled and he did to and pushed his hair behind his ear.

"So where you headed." I asked. "I was heading to the gym, I haven't gotten any training in lately."

"You still headed there?" I asked and he shrugged. "I don't want to bore you." He offered and I shook my head. "I'll come and watch you kick some ass."

We walked to the training room and Bucky changed into just some sweatpants and wrapped some cloth around his fists so he could punch the bag without splitting his knuckles open. I saw Clint down there and I limped over to him. "Hey kid." He smiled,

"Hey,"

"What are you doing down here, you obviously aren't training..." He trailed off and looked at Bucky. "Down here watching shirtless Bucky? Hmmnn?" I blushed and looked down.

"I'm down here because we are friends. That's it" I said simply and he whistled. "Okay...." He smiled and started to walk off.

"Wait, Clint. Whatever you do don't tell Natasha, or so help me-" "I get it. I get it." He cut me off with a smirk.
