Whiplash- Book 2

Chapter 15

"What's going to happen to your friends?" Bucky asks as you put the plane on auto-pilot and walks towards the two.

"Whatever it is, I'll deal with it," Steve says as he stares off into a direction. You sit next to Bucky, who was across from Steve.

"I don't know if I'm worth all this," he mutters as he glances at you.

"What you did all those years... It wasn't you. You didn't have a choice," Steve says, talking about what Bucky did in his past.

"I know. But I did it," Bucky shutters as he looks down.

You put a hand around his metal arm and tug it lightly. He sat back and let you hold onto his arm, as he rested his hand in your thigh.

"It's okay Buck, that's not you anymore," you say as you look up at him. He gives you a sad smile as he grips your thigh a bit tighter.

You remember watching the video footage of that night... Bucky was on his bad ass motorcycle and made the car crash into a pole.

He took the briefcase from the back of the old car and killed the couple who sat in the front of the car. Mr and Mrs Stark. Bucky had killed them.

You were speechless, but expected no less from the winter soldier. You blinked as you broke your thoughts off of the footage. Steve stood and walked towards the cock pit of the quin jet.

You stand in front of Bucky as his figure leans back. You gently squat down in front of him and look at him. His eyes were ocean blue, but now you noticed a bit of green in them.

Either way, it was still gorgeous... he was still gorgeous, but he wasn't Pietro...

"This'll all be over soon. I promise," you say as he looks at you.

"And after this... will you stay with me?" He asks you as he uses his metal hand to grab you into a stand. You glance downwards... not sure of your answer.

"We'll see," you say with a smile. Truth is you loved Pietro... but were you willing to stay with Bucky? He pulls you into his lap.

You sat a bit uncomfortably. You close your eyes and imagine a different scene in your head.

You were sitting on Pietro lap in the living room binge watching 'Stranger Things' and eating pop corn.

You opened your eyes and the image left your head. Bucky closer his eyes and laid back, pulling you closer to him.

You were now against his chest. It reminded you so much of Pietro, only Bucky was a but more built.

"Off," Steve says, making Buckys eyes snap open. You raise a brow as you look up at him.

"Get. Off. We're here," Steve says as he literally drags you off of Bucky.

You plop down on the ground with a huff. Bucky stands and helps you up, giving Steve a look in the process.

Once you adjust your clothing and glare at Steve, you stretch out your aching muscles and popped your neck.

You feel the jet land and it begins. Bucky grabs a gun from Natashas stash against the wall and stands by you, as the exit ramp descends.

You smile at him and Steve, ready for this to be over. As you walk out of the jet, you notice that the door is still open.

"He can't have been here more than a few hours," Steve says as he puts his shield on his arm.

"Long enough to wake them up.." Bucky trails. Steve leads you three into the cast bunker.

You travel down into the depths inside a caged elevator. The elevator stops in the bowls of the bunker, the doors slide open.

Steve nods to Bucky and you as he heaves up the cage door. Bucky readys his heavy duty machine gun, as he keeps you behind him at all times, and walk along a corridor, keeping close to a wall.

Bucky looks at an alcove full of junk as you stand by Steve.

You notice a stair case, "Hey guys. Over here." As you were about to walk up the stairs, there was a loud thud. You spin around and check for any intruders.

Bucky aims down the corridor from behind you.

"Ready?" Steve whispers as he stands beside Buck.

"Yeah," Bucky says back. You slowly open the corridor and see a person behind it.

You quickly throw a punch, not caring who it was.

"Ow!" You hear the person say as Steve and Bucky turn the corner, weapon ready to use.

When you finally see the person, you saw it was Tony. He retracted his helmet as soon as the doors opened.

"My God Tony... don't to that again," you say as you clutch your heart.

"You seem a little defensive, looks like those punches are improving big time," he says as he massages his jaw.

Bucky keeps his gun on Tony as you talk to him.

"It's been a long day," Steve says with a shrug.

"At ease, Soldier. I'm not currently after you," Tony says as he looks at Bucky.

"Then...why are you here?" You ask as you raise a brow.

"Could be your story's not so crazy. Maybe. Ross has no idea I'm here. I'd like to keep it that way. Otherwise, I gotta arrest myself," Tony says with a chuckle.

You instantly hug him, you loved Tony... almost as a father.

"You banged up some of my players pretty well Y/n, you think you can take it easy on me?" Tony asks with a smile. You pull away from the hug.

"Of course," you say as he kisses your head.

"It's good to see you Tony," Steve says with a nod.

"You too Cap," Tony says and nods back. He looks at Bucky.

"Hey, Manchurian Candidate, you're killing me. There's a truce here. You can drop...," Tony trails as you touch Buckys arm, telling him to put the gun down.

Tony gives you a look. The four of you turn towards another corridor as Tony backs up to talk to you.

"I hope there's nothing going on between you and Barnes... because Pietro was telling me-,"

"Listen metal man, what happens between me and Pietro isn't anyone else's business. He shouldn't have signed and when he did... that's when he lost me. I'll forgive him but I'm not sure what will happen after this..." you cut Tony off.

He nods and puts a hand on your shoulder.

"I just want you to be happy Speedy," he says as he pats your shoulder yet again.

You smiled and continued walking with Tony, unbeknownst that T'Challa was in a corner, hiding amongst the shadows.

Tony reattaches his helmet and face plate, as you four walk into an enormous chamber with capsules in it.

"I got heat signatures," Tony says as he scans the place.

"How many?" Steve asks.

"Uhh... one."
