As always I woke up on the next day. I stood up and walked over to the breakfast table, were Cap and Barnes already sat, and enjoyed their breakfast. I sat down next to Cap. "Good Morning." He said to me. I just grumbled. Barnes just stared laughing. "Someone drank to much yesterday." He teases me. I just gave him, my angry stare and took myself some bread and peanut butter. I bit into it, until Cap started talking again. "We will fly back to London today and then everyone has three days off. Some kind of short vacation to get some rest." He announced. I smiled brightly. "That great, I know what I want to do." I said happily. "And what?" Barnes asked me. "We've been in London for quite some time now, but I never got outside to look at all these attractions, so I'm gonna go for a sightseeing hunt." I said. "That's great." Barnes answered me. "I know the city a little bit, I can be your tourist guide." He offered me. I looked up to him. "You really would do that?" I asked him and laid my bread back onto the plate. "Yeah, why not?" He asked me ironically. "That would be great, thanks." I thanked him. He just shrouded his shoulders, but also smiled. I ate my bread and then got back to pack my stuff and my tent, to get back to London.

Once everyone was ready, we waited for Howard Stark to land onto the landing field, what just a large field is.
It took Two and a half hour to get back to London and the head quarter. Everyone backed off and got their stuff ready. I got to my tent, took my normal clothes and went to change in the bathroom. I wore a little dotted dress. I walked outside where Barnes already waited for me. I saw this look in his eyes that I couldn't assign. He could recover and asked me if I'm done. I nodded. And we started walking. "Where do you wanna go first?" Barnes asked me. " I dunno, show me." I smiled at him. He smiled and nodded. "Okay, then I say we go to the Tower Bridge." "Sounds great." I agreed.
We are outside of London so Barnes took a Car that looks a little bit broken and unused, so he tried to do a short circuit. And it worked. "If I may asked?" He said this in a lordly tone and stretched his hand towards me. And I took it.
We drove for like 46 minutes until we arrived at the Tower Bridge. On the way here I saw a lot of destroyed old houses and a lot of broken pieces of cement on the street. And this is the first time that I literally see what this War is doing to the world and all these old beautiful old houses that will probably never be the same, and this tipped my mood a little bit.

We parked right in front of the Tower bridge and got out of the car. And immediately my mood lightened again, seeing this old bridge. I looked all the way up and saw Barmes looking at me, so I turned around. "Why are you starring at me?" I asked him immediately. He immediately looked away and I think he is blushing. "Nothing. Do you wanna go up the Bridge?" He asked me. "We can do that?" I asked surprised. "Sure." We walked up to the shelter and bought us two tickets up, that cost 5£ each.
Over 200 stairs later we stood on top of the Tower Bridge. It is a little bit more windy up here than downstairs.
I leaned onto the realign and took in the view. Bucky leaned next to me and we stood like this for solid 10 minutes, in complete stillness. Up here you could see the full affect of this destroyed city. This looks terrible.

"What are you gonna do when this war is over?" Barnes asked me, out of nowhere. " I don't know. Definitely going back to my Family back home." I said and pull my shoulders, not taking my eyes off the view. "What about you?" I asked him. "Me neither, all I know is that I want to survive this cruel war." I turned my head and looked at him. He had his eyes locked into the city. But also he turned around and we made eye contact.

He came closer to me and I did the same. We were inches from each other away, when suddenly the airman alarm went off.
