Chapter Five: A little Help

James was walking down the hallways, lost in his own thoughts. James couldn't hold in the fact his family would be complete. Two years his family was missing a member. Seventeen years, his family was broken. Just him and his girl that he couldn't show love for. 

He wished he could turn back the clock, and show her the compassion she was needing. She never heard her Father say I love you till she was seventeen. It broke her, but she kept strong for him. She was more of a parent then he ever was to her. 

Then Jackson came along. It gave him a chance to be a true Father. Be a real Dad that cares for his child. Though, he could never replace Snow. That was his baby girl. 

She was the heat that broke the Winter frost around him. Because of her, he was able to reconnect with his childhood friend and the love of his life. Because of her, he was able to Bucky, not just James but Bucky. Because of her, he was a person.

James hears the echoing of slight arguing, and followed it. There were Steve, Wanda, Sam and Natasha standing there having an argument.

"Woah, whats going on?" James said, interrupting the bantering.

"She doesn't know who we are Buck." Steve said. "I was talking to her, and she had no clue who I was. She had only been drawing us. When were you going to tell us?"

"I don't know Steve." James sighed and scratched the back of his neck. "I'm not sure of how she was going to react in general to all this and have been trying to mentally figure that out."

"Good thing I have an Idea." Wanda said.

"No." Steve said sternly. "Its a bad Idea. B A D. Bad."

"I don't know Steve, it could be good." Natasha shrugged.

"Do we not remember the last time she was here?" Steve pointed out." It is not a good idea, it risks a lot."

"What is this plan?" James asked, he was ready to do anything for Snow.

"Buck, don't. It will end badly." Steve told him.

"To be fair, it was Stark who went after her. Everyone else was chill." Sam pointed out.

"And Pepper has Tony in Europe all week." Natasha added.

"Who is this person?" James asked.

"Aw you guys care about me." A familiar voice said, fake tears caught in her throat. "I mean, I feel so loved."

James and everyone turned to see the person the voice belonged to.

There sat a seventeen year old girl on the island counter. Her hair was long and blonde with black staining the ends. Her figures was slim, with her arms on either side of her, holding her body for support. A long sleeved dark green shirt, that was ripped up along the sleeves, and was short enough to show her stomach slightly. You could see a faint pink marking on her hip. Her hands were covered by black fingerless gloves. Her legs where covered by tight back jeans.

The girl had a smirk on her lips. Her nose held a silver ring on the side and dark purple stained her lips. Her aviators blocked her eyes, making James irritated slightly. He couldn't fully read her. She gave off a vibe of sarcasm and fierceness. 

"I feel so touched!" She said, wiping away fake tears.

"How did you....When did you..." Steve started rambling.

"Aww Stevie, you didn't check the fridge, did ya?" She teased. She held up a Guinness Black Lager, condensation dripped from the bottle.  Steve mumbled to himself, and Natasha laughed. "You know, I was expecting some sort of welcome party from Stark."

"He is in Europe, for that exact reason." Sam chuckled. "How ya been?"

"Eh, bored. I keep having this spider tick on me. He won't leave me alone. So I told him I would meet him at 3pm at the Central Park." She shrugged. James looked at the clock at the wall, and looked back at her.

"It's 3:15 now. How long have you been here?" He asked.

"Ummmm, bout a half hour. Hopefully Spidey will get the point." She huffed. 

"Poor Parker." Wanda chuckled. "Do I at least get a hug?"

"Aw Babe of course." She chuckled. The girl jumped down and gave Wanda a large hug. "Couldn't stay away forever, could I?"

Then adorable laughter echoed through the halls. Wanda and the girl separated, as they all looked to the hallway. There emerged a little two year old crawling. He had a big toothless smile on his face as he crawled. Nicolette followed behind the little boy as he made his way to the girl. James went to stop his son, but Sam put a hand up telling him not too. 

The little brown haired boy crawled to her feet. The girl bent down and picked up the little one, making the child laugh more.

"Aww, you are a cutie!! You with your chubby cheeks." The girl coo to the smiling child. She then looked at Natasha. "Tell me you didn't have a kid and not tell me!"

"He is my son." James said harshly. The girl looked at the boy then his father.

"See the resemblance." She said, and handed the child to James. "Who is the mom?"

"Me." Nicolette emerged from behind James. The girl and Nicolette hugged immediately and tightly. James was more confused than ever. 

"I am glad you found him." The girl said, and then pulled away. The girl then clapped her hands together. "Alright, so who my newest friend?"

"Who are you?" James growled. He didn't like the fact he was the only one who didn't know, AND that she touched his son without his permission.

"Wow frosty, don't remember?" The girl chuckled. "All good, I wouldn't want to remember either."

"Stop playing with your food." Sam scolded playfully.

"but its fun." She whined. The girl then looked at James and smiled.

"Name is Rose, and I am the reason you will have Snow back."
