Captain America: The Chronicles Of Gracie Hart

A Goodbye To Last A Lifetime

Last night I had the time of my life I got engaged only problem is Bucky leaves in a hour to be shipped of to England to fight. I hated the fact I would be in the states while he went to another country thousands of miles away. I was wearing a crimson pencil skirt a white shirt I had tucked in that was puffy at the top making it short sleeved I had black balled pumps on with a black waist coat fitted for a women I had my hair in a side fringe and high pony tail I looked amazing. I exited my house walking towards the harbour where the ships left. As i walked a smart black car pulled up beside me I stopped and looked to the window that rolled down only to reveal Howard stark I smiled at him"mr stark"I nodded at him"are you ms Gracie hart"he smiled back showing his dimples "that's me"I replied"great would you like a lift to you destination"he offered"your ok"I dis miss his offer"oh but I insist a dame such as yourself should never walk alone in a big city"he smiled"ok"I giggled and blushed slightly I entered the car and sat next to stark"oh and you can call me gracie but never call me a dame again"I smiled but with a dead serious look in my eyes he nodded"so where to"he asked changing the subject"the harbour"I told"is there someone you wanna say goodbye to"he asked I blushed"my husband to be"I smiled"oh you are engaged to a soldier"he seemed interested"yes sergeant James barnes of the a hundred and seventh"I stated proud of my one day husband"that's great he must be special"he mused "he is"I shot straight away"gracie I have followed your work and seen the essays you have written about bio engineering all theory of course any particular reason behind your interest in such a subject no offence but it's not everyday you see a woman take a shining to something like that"Howard says taking a sip from his class of bronze liquid "Science and doctoring is a passion of mine what greater way to explore the human body and it's healing capacity than bio engineering who know what cures can be created through an individual gene"Gracie expresses ignoring his sexist comment "of course, that passion is what caught the interest of people like me and my friends"he smiles "you and your friends"I frown "we could use someone like you in our research I can't go into details right now but I hear your friend Steven Rogers is also a person of interest in this project"he says "Steve what's wrong with him why is he involved"I asked worried"nothing is wrong with him, he has been asked to join the army he is due to leave tomorrow the reasons behind his enlisting relate quite literally to what myself and friends have planned. dr erskine is interested in asking you to join a science development program it will be on the same campus as your were originally assigned to only a more important job in fact mr rogers asked for you to be apart of a higher form of work id like to see your talents personally so what do you say I could pick you up in about a hour and take you to meet the doc"Howard smiled"umm this is a lot to take in first up how did Steve get in"I ask sceptical"he enlisted like every other man and that is all part of this project that will be explained if you allow us to although it's not sure Steven will be picked he is a candidate"he said"what project sending someone so defenceless out to get killed I want no part of it now mr stark if you don't mind I wish to get out"I huffed"but we are not there yet"he gave a confused look"I don't care I'll walk"with that he had the driver stop the car and I got out slamming the door outraged by the news."oh and gracie"I turned to Howard who was looking out the window of the car"here is a debriefing package I will pick you up in a hour"he handed me a file before I could reply he drove of that cocky arrogant bastard who does he think he is I put the file under my arm like hell was I going to allow that ass to ruin my last hour with bucky I continued to the harbour which stood 3 blocks down. I walked into the harbour to see loads of women and children saying goodbye to brothers,sons,husbands and fathers. I catch sight of bucky and ran to him file still in hand I hugged him and I could have sworn he sniffed my hair"hey stud"I smile at him"hey what's that"he points to the file"oh just some work stuff"I laughed sheepishly"I can tell when your hiding something from me"he whispered in my ear as he hugged me."I have been offered a higher position"I vaguely replied"and that's bad"he asked confused "it's a new project Howard stark just approached me he wants me to meet with this science doctor guy"I sigh"so what you gonna do"he kissed my lips"I have no choice in the matter Howard will be picking me up in a hour"I did not tell him about Steve that's the last worry he should have before he gets shipped if to warzones, I would deal with Steve myself."ready to go"I whisper tears in my eyes"hey come on we talked about this I promise we will see each other again because last night I meant what I said I will marry you when we win the war "he cupped my face brushing any tears you had away."ok I love you"I gave him my best fake smile but he saw through it"here"he took a necklace out of his pocket of his uniform on the chain was his silver ring he would always wear on his middle finger"I can't take that a engagement ring is enough"I smiled"to remember me besides I'm gonna be wanting it back so we have to meet again look after it for me"he said and clipped it around my neck"like I could forget you"I smile a whistle sounds meaning he has to go we share one more kiss it is soft but full if passion as if we were both begging to explain how much we loved one another through just one kiss."go kick some ass for me"I smirked"yes ma'm"he saluted me and walked off I waved as the ship left I was angry at Steve how could he be so stupid. I guess this file would shed some light i thought as I looked at the file in my hands.
