Captain America: The Winter Soldier: The Chronicles Of Gracie Hart

Gone With The Wind

DREAM:
Gracie woke up in a warm bed back at her old apartment in Brooklyn from 1940 she rubs the sleep from her eyes yawning and stretching out her arms. Just then bucky walks in Gracie frowns his hair is short like before he has a smile on his face and both his arms are well his own "morning sweetheart"he smiles looking down at the bundle of blankets in his arms. A cooing noise comes from the bundle as he gets in the bed leaning towards Gracie. In buckys arms lay a child looking no more than a week old just staring up at bucky "she's such a good baby"bucky smiles looking down at the child "we did a great job"he smiles "she's ours"Gracie whispers bucky lets out a laugh "wow was your dream that vivid you forgot we have a son"he laughs "our son"I repeat "Gracie are you okay doll"bucky ask looking concerned I take a moment before looking up smiling "in perfect"I grin "good morning baby"if coo a the small boy who gurgles up at his parents. This is perfect.

The sound of a low beeping and mellow music wakes me I keep my eyes closed not wanting to wake wanting so bad for the dream of me and bucky having a child to be real but that's when I notice the pain in my head I groan "Gracie"a voice says on my right "steve"I mutter opening my eyes looking at steve who's stood by my bed that's in a hospital "see told you she would be all good she's to stubborn to die"sam pats steves back "steve sam"I smile "you were stupid yesterday"steve says I sigh facing away "but you were brave and I couldn't be more proud of you because you faced your past and came out the other side"steve finishes "I'm sorry"I say looking up at steve who smiles lightly "I couldn't leave him"I sigh "how did you find me before i drown"I ask sam and steve who frown "we didn't we found you after you were on the bank covered by trees I frown then it clicks he must have pulled me out. I sigh "how bad is the injuries"I ask "last night they were bad this morning well there better give it a few days and you'll be good as new"steve replies I nod "Gracie"steve says I hum in reply "we will find him"he says I nod looking away out the hospital window. I hope so I really hope so.

Me steve and sam stand against a tree by furys grave people still believe he is dead "so you've experienced this sort of thing before"furys voice rings out "you get used to it"steve says as fury looks down at his grave stone "we've been data minding all of hydras files looks like a lot of rats didn't go down with the ship I'm headed to York tonight I was wondering if you wanted to come"fury says looking at me and steve who looks at me I put my head down sighing "there's something we gotta do first"steve says looking at me then fury I lift my head smiling lightly at my best friend "how about you Wilson could use a man with your abilities"fury looks at sam "I'm more of a soldier than a spy"he replies looking at me and steve before fury "all right then"fury nods shaking sams hand then mine then steves "if anybody asks for me tell them they can find me here"he shakes his head at his grave stone he walks off "you should be honoured that's as close as he gets to saying thank you"Nats voices rings out we all look at her stepping towards us. "Not going with him"steve asks "no"Nat shakes her head "not staying here"I smile to which she sighs "I blew all my covers I've gotta find a new one"she smiles "that could take a while"steve says "I have that thing you asked for"Nat says "I called in a few favours"she explains passion me buckys file I frown so does steve I stroke over the file and sigh "will you do me a favour steve"Nat says "call that nurse"she finishes me and steve smile "she's not a nurse"steve says "and your not a shield agent"Nat replies "what was her name again"steve asks "Sharron she's nice"Nat approves. She pulls me into a hug and I return it me and Nat may not be the best of friends but I'd trust her in a heart beat. She pulls away hugging steve to. Before stepping away "be careful Gracie you and steve both need to be prepared for what could happen if you pull on that thread"she nods to the file in my arms I look down like I haven't already thought about this and gone through hundred of scenarios in my head of how finding bucky will help. I open the file and it reveals a picture of him in cryogenic freeze under paper clipped to that photo lays another photo its of him from the 40s looking like the bucky I knew the bucky I loved hell what am I saying I love him even now even after him trying to kill me and steve more than once the last time he nearly succeeded not that I would have fought hard to prevent it. "You two are going after him"sam says as Nat walks off "you don't have to come with us"steve says looking at the open file in my hands "I know"sam says "when do we start"he asks I smirk at him.
