A Stucky Story

The Asset and Steve part 5

They actually were able to sleep in a little today, Bucky woke up with a headache again so Steve decided to put Paw Patrol on his tablet and bring him his smoothie in bed.

"How's your head baby?" Bucky groaned and leaned into Steve's hand which was stroking his head. Steve really didn't know what to do, he texted Nat earlier, but only said to give him medicine and watch him for seizures. Steve was worried about the seizures, every time Bucky complained of headaches a seizure would follow. This one seemed to be one of his bad ones, even the sirens from Paw Patrol made him flinch in pain.

"Bucky, honey, I think you need a doctor. You're starting to become warm." Said Steve feeling Bucky's head. He was warm and it was worrying him. Bucky groaned and laid on Steve's stomach. Steve sighed and texted Nat again. Two minutes later, she called.

"He's seriously not getting better?" She asked.

"No, he's barely touched his smoothie and won't talk."

"Bring him to the tower." She hung up. Steve lifted Bucky up a little, it was then that Bucky was becoming too painful to move. He cried when Steve laid him back on the bed. Steve left the room to get his pacifier, he came back to Bucky having a violent seizure.

"Baby, you're okay. Oh my God, uh, hold on Bucky. I'm here." Steve quickly called Nat again.

"Nat, he's seizing again and it's bad."

"Time the seizure, I'll send a medical team to you." She hung up, Steve focused on the seizing man in front of him. So far, he had two and a half minutes. It took everything in Steve not to hold Bucky in his arms and rush him with to the car. Then the doorbell rang. Steve didn't want to leave Bucky, but he had to open the door. He got up and quickly ran to the front door. He didn't bother to say hello to the two doctors and Nat.

"He's in my room, he's still seizing." He escorted them to the room. Bucky was still seizing but not as violent. Doctors quickly got an oxygen mask on him. Nat stroked Bucky's hair and watched him calm down.

The seizure stopped just shy of five minutes, Bucky was dazed and became fussy. He was able to tell that there was way too many hands touching him. And he hated whatever was on his face. This felt too much like Hydra. He was only able to stay calm enough because he could smell Steve and tell Nat's touch from the doctors.

"He needs to go to the medical lab. Dr. Branner wants to see him, now." Said a female doctor. Steve nodded and carried Bucky to the medical van while Natasha brought Bucky's sippy cups and some books.

When they got to the tower, Bucky started to shake more. He became more focused when he realized there was a sudden change. Bruce came and tried to take Bucky away. Bucky immediately went for a bite.

"Bucky, baby, you behave for this and I'll get you a present." Said Nat. Bucky groaned and sat in the wheelchair. Steve and Nat followed him to the lab. Steve picked Bucky up and laid him on the exam table. Bucky stared at the large machine, this was terrifying.

"Okay, Bucky this is a CT machine and it's going to take pictures of your head. It will take at least five minutes, if you can corporate." Said Bruce.

"If he won't settle for this, then what?" Asked Steve.

"Sleep study, but I rather get this over with than wait for another seizure. See if you can get him to lay down, give the thumbs up when he's ready." Bruce left the room, Steve sighed and tried to coax Bucky to lay down.

"It's like a bed, baby. Lay down." Said Steve. Bucky shook his head no. Steve looked to Nat.

"Honey, I'm going to play Paw Patrol once you lay down." Bucky did lay down, but hearing the machine buzz frightened him.
