A Stucky Story

The Asset and The Hulk

Today was supposed to be a normal day, Steve didn't expect things to go downhill so fast when he got a call from Fury early in the morning.

A mission.

Steve hasn't been on a mission since he got Bucky back. Bucky was very clingy and has trust issues. The few people he trust he considers family. Bucky likes to see his family together, but they can't always be together, especially when one was a criminal. Now Steve needed someone to watch Bucky.

Fury only gave Steve an hour to get himself and Bucky ready. But Bucky was in a deep sleep. Steve got up early and packed Bucky's bag. He made sure to pack extra diapers, clothes and snacks and paci. He found Lamby and looked at Bucky, he hated to wake him up but he didn't have a choice.

"Bucky, wake up baby." Bucky groaned but didn't wake up. Steve sighed, he didn't have time for this. Steve changed him despite him being a little fussy.

Then Steve's phone rang. It was Natasha.

"You got twenty minutes, Rogers."

"What about Bucky? Can Rumlow watch him?"

"Rumlow got sick." Last thing Steve needed was Bucky to catch a cold.

"Okay, what about Sam?"

"Sam is at the tower with Bruce, I'm not sure what they're doing, but it won't hurt to ask them about watching him." Steve sighed and looked at Bucky, who was still asleep. Steve hung up with Nat and called Sam.

"Look I know this is sudden, but can you watch Bucky?"

"Yeah, I'm with Bruce, we're just mediating."

"Thank you, Sam." He hung up and picked up Bucky. Bucky opened his eyes for a second, then fell back to sleep.

"You are not going to be happy today, I can already tell." Steve got Bucky's bag and put Lamby on his chest. Steve put him in the car and made his way to the tower.

At the tower, Sam greeted them. Steve got Bucky out of the car and put him in a quiet room.

"Okay, here's his bag. He's been changed. Also his tablet is in there and I'm going to give you keys to the apartment and keys to my car. Are you planning on doing anything today?"

"Not really, I'll work around what he wants to do."

"Alright, call me if he gets too fussy. I'll try to answer when I'm not getting shot at."

"Steve go, I've taken care of him once before, he'll be fine."

"Okay." Steve kissed Bucky's head then left. Sam closed the door and hoped Bucky wouldn't be too upset that Steve was missing.

He was very wrong.

Friday alerted Sam when Bucky started screaming for Steve. He ran upstairs, he could hear Bucky screaming.

"DADDY!" Sam opened the door and turned on the lights. Bucky was not happy. He had been crying and didn't know where he was.

"Good morning, Bucky. It's Sam, remember? The bird." Bucky settled down a little, but where was Steve and where was he?

"Daddy go?"

"He had to go on a mission today, he should be back before night time. Are you hungry or something?"

"Want daddy."

"Sorry kiddo, he had to go but he'll be back." Bucky started to cry, he hugged his Lamby. Sam sat on the bed and rubbed his legs.

"What's wrong?"

"Daddy leave me, not coming back."

"He'll come back." Bucky shook his head no, Sam didn't know why Bucky was refusing to believe that Steve would come back.
