When you arrived at the Tower you were quiet and traumatized having been experimented on by an expelled HYDRA doctor. Bucky and you formed a relationship and while you were still learning your powers and just when you let your walls down with Bucky...

Bucky was sitting in the library, otherwise known as the Fortress of Solitude to the Captain, and was currently watching Steve pace back and forth. Wanda came storming in, her fingers aglow in red with Nat trailing behind with her arms crossed.
"So who wants to talk first?" Nat was the first to speak while Wanda just glared at the both of them, Bucky straightened in his seat under the hostility. Steve rubbed his hands over his face. "I don't even know what happened, to be honest. I know she's upset but I don't know why." They could tell by his face he was bewildered but still guilty, none the less. He knew he you overheard something he just didn't know the extent of the damage he had caused and if he was willing to fess up, especially with Bucky there."She heard you, and we know that you know. I don't even have to go in your head to know that, Steve. Don't play dumb." Wanda's words stung him and he nearly stumbled into the desk and leaned against it for support. He shook his head. "How much?" His voice barely above a whisper. "Does it matter?" Bucky spoke this time. "Two asshole soldiers, what a pair we make." Wanda took some books and used her powers and threw it at both of them.

"You are a bunch of assholes, truly! We've watched you both play with our friend! She's trusted you! You betrayed her!" Nat put her hand on Wanda's shoulder to calm her while the men just took the assault knowing she was right. They were at fault and they knew it. Each for different reasons, but still. It was time to atone but first to each other and then to her.
"I love her." Everyone's eyes shot to Steve and it was silent, Bucky's fists were balled up at his side but he remained silent. "I'm sorry Buck. At first, yea. We were just friends and I wanted to console her and make her feel better. But as we became closer and I watched her become this new woman, hell, even before that with her wicked sense of humor and calming nature. Shit, she was just so easy for me to be around. There was no pressure to be anything other than....me." He smiled to himself. "I knew she was it for me. It's not fair to you and I'm sorry." The women just stared at the two men waiting for them to either fight it out or hug, that tended to be how things worked around here. Bucky slowly nodded taking his words in and he couldn't find fault with them. "I had my chance and I fucked it up. I thought I could come back and just pick up the pieces but that's not ..not going to happen. I understand that." Steve's head fell, sad for his friend and worried for hurting Y/N. "It's not too late for you though. Yea, she's stubborn as hell but you can fix this and make it right. To be honest the only other person I'd be ok with her with is you, brother. As fucked up as that sounds. I know you're the only person who will treat her right." Steve's eyes were red and had unshed tears as Bucky walked over and gave him a hug. "You deserve to be happy too, Steve. I fucked up with her but I'll get another chance with another dame. She just wasn't my forever."
