Aftermath (Bucky Barnes)

Chapter Thirty Seven

Bucky came back just as everyone was leaving. Steve was the last to go.

When Bucky came back he and I cleaned up and changed into comfortable clothes.

"Tomorrow morning Steve's coming over for breakfast." I said and Bucky turned on our TV. "When is he not? So what are we watching tonight?" He asked.

"Can we just go to sleep?" I asked and he smiled and turned off the TV, "Sure."

I cuddled up against him and he started rubbing circles on my stomach. "I can't believe the twins are starting school soon." He said and I shocked too.

"Time goes by so fast, and only about two months until this little bugger is out, we're going to be out numbered."

"We need to pick a school, and then pick a name for her." I said and he kissed my head.

"How about Elizabeth?" I asked. "No."

"Angel?"

"That's a strippers name, definitely not. What about Erica or Erin?"

"Yeah, I like Erica. Erica Barnes."

"Middle name?" He asked. "Hmm? I don't think she'll need one."

"It's decided then, now go to bed babe." Bucky said and I smiled.

"Love you."

"I love you too, doll."

Bucky Barnes Point of View: I woke up first and looked to my side to see Dani snoring.

I quietly got up and checked on the kids. Lucy was wide away coloring in a notebook I bought her, with princesses on it

"Good morning baby, want to come downstairs with me?" I asked and she nodded. I picked her up with my metal arm, surprisingly my kids loved the metal arm, they thought it was fun to color on and stick magnets on, which I thought was adorable.

I was wearing a short sleeved white shirt and some sweatpants, while I walked down the stairs with Lucy she started coloring on my arm.

"Look daddy I wrote my name." She said and I placed her down at the kitchen table with her crayons. "Great job sweetie." I smiled.

"What do you want for breakfast?" I asked.

She looked up at me with her big blue eyes. "Pancakes and waffles!" She said and I smiled. I would do anything when she made that puppy dog face.

"Okay, want to go wake your brother up?" I asked. "Okay!" She said and hopped down and ran upstairs to go get Sebastian.

I started to make both waffles and pancakes for my family.

I looked at Lucy's name that she drew on my arm, she was pretty good at spelling for a four year old.

I smiled and took a picture of it. Sebastian came down with ruffled hair. "Good Morning!" I said and hugged him. "Good morning daddy." He smiled.

"Why don't you so go play together, color your mother a pretty picture." I said and they nodded.

I rolled up my sleeves and put on an apron. I stared flipping pancakes when Dani came down.

It looked like she had showered because her hair was a little wet and it was braided. She was dressed in one of my sweatshirts and some jeans.

"It smells delicious down here." She said and walked over and pulled on my apron, so I was closer to her and kissed her.

"Nice apron." She teased. "Nice sweatshirt." I teased then I kissed her again and we stopped when the kids cringed and both yelled "Ewwwww!"

Dani walked over and hugged the two. "What are you guys coloring?"

"You and daddy!" They said and showed us the finished picture.

"It's beautiful, Can I hang it on the fridge?" Dani asked and they both nodded. I finished up with breakfast and right then the door opened and Steve came in.

Both our kids ran over to him and hugged him. "Good morning Steve." Daniella smiled and Steve smiled back.

"Morning." He said and grabbed a cup of coffee, he knew where everything was in this house.

"Food is ready!" I said and handed Daniella the two kids plates and she started to cut them up into smaller pieces.

Before I met Daniella I could not cook to save my life but when she was pregnant the first time, I might've snuck out and took cooking lessons so she wouldn't have to worry about feeding our kids.

I just wanted one less thing for her to worry about.

I noticed her starring at me from across the table with the biggest smile on her face, I made a weird face back and she smirked. "So, what do you guys want to do today?" Steve asked the kids.

Every Sunday he takes them out for the day, he's the best, they always do something fun. "The zoo!" They both shouted and Steve nodded. He does it to get them out so we can clean up around the house and just to bond with them

"Alright, we can go after you finish breakfast and get dressed." Steve said and the kids quickly ate and ran upstairs with Dani to get dressed.

"We need to have a guys night out, it's never just me and you." He said and I agreed, I did miss him.

"We need to have it before the next baby is born." I said and he smiled, then looked down.

"I know you used to want a family, you still want one?" I asked and he shook his head no.

"The guy who wanted all of that went into the ice seventy years ago, sure, having a wife and kids would be nice but you and Dani are like my family, so..."

"My kids are your kids." I said and he smiled.

"I know, I also like being Captain America, I get to save people and I make sure the world is safe so you and Dani don't have to worry." He said and I hugged him.

"I know, I owe you the world." I said an he smiled.
