Metal Arm, Meet Metal Leg

Chapter 9

I woke up, my head pounding slightly. I lifted my hands out of instinct and healed it. I looked up to see Bucky looking to me. I gave a weak smile. The open wounds I felt from losing my father once more hurt, but I knew it was the first step to healing.

"Morning?" I half questioned as it was still dark. 

"It's 4 in the morning so the sun still hasn't risen." he explained. He had one hand behind my back while the other one was latched in front of me to his other hand. I snuggled into him. I was being greedy. He was warm and I was hollow.

"How are you feeling?" he asked quietly. 

"Better. I think I needed it. The wake up call." I nodded slightly. "So, the train left at 7, it's 4 and its a 20 hour train ride. We still have 11 hours to go." I changed the subject. 

"11 hours of what?" he asked, his eyebrows raised. I flipped up my wristband so I was on Netflix. I pulled up a new series and started playing it. He nodded with a smile, approving my decision.

11 hours later and we were both completely angered.

"What? He can't just leave! She just told him she was pregnant and he just left. He said he 'couldn't do it anymore'!" Bucky scoffed in anger. 

"You don't leave the girl you love because things get hard! How could he?" I yelled at the screen. "I swear to god, if that ever happened to me, I would make sure he would die a very painful death." I snorted out of anger. Bucky snapped out of his anger fit and looked at me.

"Did you just snort? What was that?" he teased.

"Oh shut it." I half yelled, but it was hard to contain the smile. 

"Bienvenue à Paris." a voice spoke over the intercom. Both Bucky and I picked it up and turned to him excitedly. I looked out the window, jumping off Bucky's lap to see the shinning lights. We arrived when the sun was setting. 

"Most shops will be closed and with our knowledge and my powers we can easily sneak in and get more clothes." I told him when I turned to him. 

"Well first stop, the closest clothes shop." he nodded, standing beside me. I felt the train start to slow, but I kept my eyes glued to the city until it was blocked by the train station. 

"Let's go!"

"I am in awestruck, Buck. You look ravishing." I complimented as he posed dramatically for me. He wore almost the same thing. He wore some blue jeans, a black sweatshirt, and his jacket. It was simple, but it blended him in. He wore an all black baseball cap to help hide himself. 

"La Belle, et la bête" he smiled to me.

"So cheesy, Buck." I rolled my eyes. I wore a pair of black skinny jeans and a black turtleneck. To hide my guns I wore a black trench coat. I finished it with a black and grey scarf. I tied my hair into a high bun and let some baby hairs hang out to give it a nonchalant look. 

"Let's go see that Eifel tower." he smiled. I nodded and we left the place almost how we found it. When we stepped outside I was in awe. Snow fell softly around us, whirling in the streets. It was a few days into November so it was no surprise the temperatures dropped and snow began to fall.

"Beautiful." I breathed. Our entranced moment was interrupted. 

"Aide! Aide!" Screams were heard from an alleyway. A lady was screaming for help. Bucky and I shared a glance before running toward the area. It seemed to be a mother cradling her son as three men ran down the alleyway laughing. 

"Men or boy?" I asked Bucky. He smirked and ran off. "Do not get blood on your clothes. They're new!" I scolded to him.

"Mademoiselle, Je suis ici pour vous aider." I told her I was here to help. She began rambling about how the men attacked her and her son, but he stood up to them and they attacked him and smashed his head multiple times and left since she was unable to do anything.
