Stucky? Stucky.

You Are Not Alone

I felt like posting this one as well today so enjoy. This one won't have much stucky in it. It's more of Bucky and Clint bonding and understanding each other.

Bucky thrashes about in his bed. "No don't make me." He screams out. He often has nightmares but they only ever wake Steve up who is in the room next door. Tonight wasn't different. Bucky screams and shouts some more before Steve runs into his room. "Buck! Bucky wake up! It's just a dream buddy!" Bucky's eyes shoot open and he looks to the man kneeling at his bed, his face softens from the cold front showing before. "Steve.." He whispers with tears running down his cheeks. "You're okay Bucky, you're okay" Steve whispers in his ear comforting they brunette. Steve is always the one to comfort Bucky when something has upset him or if he has a nightmare about Hydra, the latter happened a lot.

Steve returned to his room 10 minutes after, satisfied that Bucky was okay now. For a good half an hour Bucky lay still on his bed staring at the ceiling of his room. He knows he'll never forget about what hydra did to him and of course, what they made him do to all those innocent people. He decides to go get a drink from the kitchen and hopefully take his mind off the subject of hydra. He walks quietly along the dark hall towards the kitchen not expecting anyone else to be up. Little did he know, Clint(who was staying in the avengers tower for a couple of days) had the same idea as Bucky but was already in the kitchen.

Bucky came round the corner getting a small fright when he say the other man sitting on a stool by the breakfast bar. "Clint?" Bucky asks gently as he knew Clint wasn't fond of him.
"Barnes" he said not looking up from his cup.
"Do you mind if I get a drink? I don't mean to disturb you." Bucky says in a small timid voice which was very unlike him. "Geez don't act like you're scared of me Barnes, I don't hate you" The straight forward-ness surprised Bucky, he doesn't hate me? "You don't hate me?" He asks getting a cup from the cupboard and filling it with water. "I don't know why you thought I did, I understand what you're going through you know? Obviously what happened to me wasn't nearly as bad as what you've been through but the situations are similar." Bucky is beyond confused by this, "I don't understand? What happened to you?" Clint sighs as Bucky sits on a stool on the other side of the breakfast bar.

"No one told ya? Well when Loki came to earth he touched me with his sceptre which put some sort of spell on me or something. I followed his orders and killed a lot of people in Shield etc. This was over the space of like 3days but the others got me out of the trance and I returned to normal. There isn't one day I don't think about the people I killed when I was controlled by Loki- like when you were controlled by HYDRA." Bucky's lips make an O shape and he understands what Clint means.

"Not once was I called a villain even though I killed those people, but you. You are called a villain by people who don't understand what happened to you. You were a prisoner of war for what 70 years?" Bucky is relieved that someone finally understands how guilty he feels, killing those innocent people. "Do you get nightmares Clint?" Bucky asks looking at the blonde in front of him. "At first I got them a lot, now they come and go but like I said, I feel guilty everyday. You are not alone pal, if you ever want to talk about it, Come find me." Clint gets off his stool and starts to walk away when Bucky calls out to him,"Thanks Clint, I needed that" Offering a friendly grin Clint, turns and walks to his room after saying, "No problem pal"
