         "What for?" I asked.

"He wouldn't tell us" Bucky shrugged,

"I'll take your bags for you, you find out what he wants" Peggy offered.

"Thanks, Peggy" I handed my bags to her.

I took Bucky's hand as we walked to the Colonel's tent. "You wanted to see me?" I asked.

"Ah, yes" He stood up from his desk and handed me a file.

"You're being moved"

"What?" Bucky asked.

"But sir" Steve started

"Let me explain, before Sargent Barnes has a heart attack" Colonel interrupted.

"You're being moved to the front line, to take care of the Howling Commandos" He sat back down in his chair.

"With all due respect, sir, but why?" I asked.

"Ever since Sargent Barnes' little gun shot issue, I thought it would be a good idea to have a nurse with them, just in case something like that happens again" Colonel explained.

"Sir, she doesn't know how to protect herself," Bucky pointed out. I turned and glared at Bucky, him glaring back at me.

"That's why, you and Captain Rogers will train her, is that clear" Colonel raised and eyebrow.

"Yes, sir" Steve elbowed Bucky in the ribs, making him nod.

"Go see Stark, he'll get you everything you need" He ushered us out of his tent.

We walk out of the tent, Bucky instantly grabbed my hand, turning me around to face him. "I don't think this is a good idea," He started.

"Why not," I let go of his hand and crossed my arms. He stood there for a while with his mouth open trying to come up with a reason.

"I'm not a delicate flower," I pursed my lips.

"Yes you are!"

"Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I'm not capable of protecting myself"

"That's not what I me-"

"That's exactly what you meant, James"

"Guys" Steve groaned.

"Lindy let me exp-" Bucky reached out for my arm.

"No" I slapped his arm away, "don't touch me" I glared at him, before walking towards Howard's tent.

"Lindy!" Bucky shouted behind me.

I pushed Howard's tent open and looked in, seeing him working on something. "Howie?" I asked.

"Ah little Miss Beauty Queen!" He walked over to me and pulled me into a hug.

"Hi" I smiled, returning the hug.

"How was your girl's day with Agent Carter?" He asked, his hand lingering on my waist.

"Wonderful" I smiled at him, "thank you for letting us use your card"

"Well, I'd do anything for beautiful women," He winked at me.

Someone cleared their throat, I turned around to see Bucky, with his arms crossed glaring at Howard. "Ah, yes Colonel talked to me about your new position, congratulations by the way" Howard smiled at me.
