Hardly Living

Make it all better

" Good-morning, come down for breakfast. Also you and I gotta talk.

PS- sorry not sorry but I kinda stole your shirt. It was an emergency.

-Buck.     "

Clint read the note left on the nightstand next to him and smiled warmly.He gets up right after putting in his hearing aids , walks to the bathroom ,brushes his teeth and goes on his way, with messy hair and a drool stained T-shirt. He walked down the hallway in to the elevator and pressed on the floor number to the main kitchen.

( With Bucky )

Bucky cracked an egg open and  let it fall in to the sizzling hot pan and watched as the transparent goo-ish looking thing cooked.
Bucky wore a tired expression and sighted as he flipped the egg and heard the ding of the elevator, the elevator doors slide open and out came tony and captain underpants.

" morning captain ; tony "

"Morning"

"Morning"

Steve walks over to the kitchen getting everything ready to make his own breakfast. Tony walks as slow as possible to the coffee machine and starts brewing some coffee.

Bucky sighs and gets two plates ready filled with food and takes them to the table. He sits on one side and right there the elevator door dings and slides open. Clint walks out and observes his surroundings . He smiles and walks over to Bucky , sitting next to him.

"Mmormming"

" morning "

" you understood that? " tony asked and Steve chuckled in the background

Bucky nods and smiles. He slides a plate of food to Clint and Clint smiles at him " thanks.. buckybear...." Clint yawns and sighs.  He sits comfortably and starts to eat.

" this is delicious how did you even learn how to cook??? "

Bucky Smiles " I uh... "

Steve laughs and shakes his head side to side
" he was obsessed with the kitchen back then. Everyone found it weird. "
Bucky interrupts " BuT That's just me."

Clint shrugs it off with a smile and keeps eating.

- minutes later CLINT POV -

Walking back to my room after breakfast I pass by nat and she gives me a hug. I tell her about the breakfast Bucky made me and she winked at me. I just laughed and shook my head.

Once i reach my bedroom door I open it and walk in. The blinds are slightly open and Bucky is sitting on my bed holding a folded shirt. I smile and sit next to him taking the shirt from his hands and setting it aside.

" I did say we had to talk. "

I nod and look down

" Clint... I haven't known you for long.. but I can tell that you have been hiding this for a long time. Keeping it inside of you.. hurting you.. "

He is right...  I've never talked to anyone about this. Nobody has ever seen me.."Bucky I- " I was interrupted.

" Clint I'm not forcing you to tell me anything. But I want you to know.. that what ever it is.. what ever is tearing you apart from inside.. I can handle. And I'm here for you. Even if I have to get up at four in the morning. "

Bucky held my hand. I held it back tighter.
I never felt the need to talk about this to anyone... but right now.. being here with him after what he said I just couldn't hold it back anymore.
With tears in my eyes I looks up at him and hug him.
I feel him tense up so I start to pull away but he holds me back.
