A/N; Over 1700 words p.s. this chapter is pretty short compared to the previous one because I just needed to catch you guys up quickly bUT the next chap has a lottttt of fighting so be prepared.

You were on a walk with Bruce in the park. He was telling you about Hulk and how everything happened. You were fascinated by the science behind it all. These last few days together have been so great for you, you were getting back into a somewhat not so angry state and, you have been getting Bruce to laugh and smile more. You were enjoying your early afternoon before having to catch the flight that day, when your now cracked, phone buzzed in your back pocket. You excused yourself from the conversation to check who the message was from. Once you saw it was Steve about Buck, you quickly told Bruce you had to go and explain later and ran off to the house. You arrived as Steve was heading out. "Hey (y/n). Hurry, get dressed, the winter soldier is back again. Take your weapons and the stealthiest suit you have." He urged you and you nodded, running off to your room.

You dressed into a black long sleeved top with matching pants, both tight yet flexible for movement. They have silver straps from your shoulders, down to your back and they were strapped at the chest and waist. They connected to other straps at your thighs. You grabbed knives and guns, putting them in the pockets within the straps. You ran downstairs as Steve eyed your look. "Yup, this is your first time seeing my suit. Another discussion for another time, let's go Rogers." You commanded and walked out the door and into the passengers seat of Steve's truck. We sped off to the nearby apartment community. Once we arrived in her driveway, you swallowed all of your old feelings and pulled out your pistol, holding it low as you opened the door. Once you walked in, you heard yelling and things being thrown. You knew he was winning and a small smirk made it's way onto your lips. You lifted your pistol up and walked into the now destroyed living room. You saw Natasha straddling his shoulders, as she extended a wire around his neck and pulled back. A similar technique to what you've done prior. You ignored it and noticed she also was in her underwear.

You scoffed and shot a bullet into her thigh, causing her to fall down onto the floor and the soldier was now focused on you. You smiled and put your pistol back into your strap and signaled for Steve to get Nat. He got over to her and started adding pressure onto both of her wounds. You walked up to the man's pistol with no hesitation. "Hey, buddy? Remember me? " You smiled sarcastically and continued walking up to the weapon as he didn't flinch. Steve attempted to warn you to back down but you shook your head, as if saying you knew he wouldn't hurt you or if he did, you wouldn't really care. Your chest was now touching the front of his black pistol. His brows furrowed close and he looked upset and kind of confused. You ignored the thought as it wasn't Bucky and just leaned forward. You connected your lips with his. His lips still moved in sync with yours and you knew he was in there. You smiled in the kiss but pulled back once your hand was holding his gun toward him now. He looked at his empty hands and up to your eyes in confusion. He turned around and jumped out of one of the windows and started running toward the exit of the community. You jumped out of the window after him and picked up the pace to catch up. Once you did, you jumped on his back, causing his to fall down, his fast hands, helping support him. You flipped him so he was now facing you and you sat on his stomach. His dark eyes didn't scare you anymore and instead you were comfortable around this other man as well.

He was only lost. You tried to forget about everything he did prior, as you leaned down again to connect your lips. Your lips connected well together and it went smoothly and before you knew it, a tear fell down your eye as your lips recognized the man who you were missing. You pulled away and saw Bucky as he gave you a smile that slowly turned into a frown. You smiled at him and got up, extending your hand down to help him up. He took your hand and stood up. "And would you look at that, you're not hurt this time.." you tried to stay in a good mood around him and he nodded, "Not physically at least.." he spoke under his breath and you just had him follow you back to the apartment. You saw Natasha on the floor, Steve hovering over her in a cautious state. You smiled at him and walked into her room, grabbing a pair pants and walking back out to throw them at her head. "Put those on. You're going for a ride and trust me, with all those wounds, I sure do hope we go through a bumpy road, bitch." You smiled and walked out to the car. James followed you and sat in the passenger's seat. Steve carried Natasha into the backseat. You sped off back to the house and noticed Bucky had his eyes on you the entire ride. When you pulled into the driveway, you hit the brakes hard and heard as she groaned in pain and you smiled. You walked inside and as the others got inside, you closed the door and walked upstairs. "Okay, I'm going to change but Buck, go rest, you need it and Steve, put her in the bathroom, I'll deal with her in a bit." You spoke and everybody did as they were told, except one.

You walked into your bedroom and took off the straps on your suit and tossed them on the bed. You took off your shirt and bra, looking for a shirt when the door opened behind you. You covered your bare chest and turned around, "Excus--" you paused as you saw the man at the door was the one you wanted to talk to a few days ago but not right now. "Uh, I'm not clothed, Buck. Go outside and get some rest." You nodded and turned back to your clothes. "It's nothing I haven't seen before.." He spoke and you quickly spun around, anger reaching you again. "Oh, yes, that was the night you left right? or was it on one of the other days where you were with that other woman, in her bed, while she was with no pan--" You stopped your quick rant and took a deep breath, still covering yourself up. "Look, I have a flight to catch in a bit so just let me get dressed while you sleep, please." You spoke as you grabbed a sports bra and put it on. You turned back to face him and his brows were furrowed, "Plane?" He questioned and you nodded, "Thanks for remembering to ruin my stay before I had to leave." You spoke in a sarcastic tone, put on a tee and left the room to go to the bathroom. There, you found Natasha waiting for you. You quickly took out both bullets and stitched her back up, making sure to stab her with the needle, "accidentally", a couple of times. You went back into your room and found Bucky asleep on your bed. You let him be and went back downstairs.

Steve helped Natasha down the stairs as she limped. Without looking up, you pointed to the door and spoke, "There's the door, Romanoff. Leave." She scoffed and looked up at Steve, "this isn't your house to run." she fired back and you looked up at her, "oh I know, that was a general opinion from the actual owners. No one wants you here, trust me and no one wanted your slutty hands on my ex but look where they landed." You shrugged and walked back upstairs to your room. You packed your suit and your weapons, trying not to wake Buck. Once finished, you looked up at him and noticed how peaceful he looked in the first time, in a while. You smiled to yourself and put the bags away. You crawled in beside him and decided to take a power nap a few hours before your flight so you wouldn't be as exhausted.

Once you woke up, the bed was empty and you checked the time, it was 9:07pm. Meaning, your plane had just taken off thirty-seven minutes prior. You shot up in bed and began yelling all of the curse words which came to your head. You quickly finished your bags and ran downstairs with your hands full. You realized the kitchen was full of guests, other avengers, actually. All eyes were on you, you said hi and bye and ran out of the front door. You threw the bags into Bucky's car and ran into the driver's seat, continuing to curse under your breath. As you were pulling out of the driveway, Bucky ran up to the passenger's seat and knocked on the glass so you could let him in. You unlocked it, allowing him to get inside and sped off to the airport. The ride was practically silent except for the soft music in the background. Once you arrived, you ran up to the front desk. "Hello, ma'am. I'm sorry but I just missed my flight, are there anymore to Florida tonight?" The woman checked her computer and shook her head then shrugged. You walked back to the car where Buck eyed you but you ignored it all. You drove back home and walked into the house with your hands full. You walked up to your room, throwing your bags across the room, locking the door and then flopping onto the bed to drift off into a well needed sleep.
