I eventually drove back home and I parked the truck and walked inside. I sat at the kitchen table after I got a bottled water out of the fridge. I found some pills for my headache after I had cried so much.

"Honey, are you okay?"

"I don't really know mom. I thought I could see them both without being like this but knowing that I still love Bucky drives me crazy. They both left and Bucky took my heart with him. I can't imagine loving anyone else mom", I cried.

"Honey, it's okay. Don't cry".

"Why'd they leave mom. Why did Bucky leave me? Was I not good enough for him? Did he not love me?"

"Oh no honey. That boy loved you. He still loves you. I don't think he knew what he wanted except he knew he loved you but he came back honey. They both did. They're your friends. You three have been through so much together. And I'm sure you three can survive this. I know you want to be mad but you need to forgive or you'll regret it. I know you'll make up. I know you both belong together."

"I don't know if I can. He hurt me so bad mom."

"I know hun, but give him a chance for me?"

"I'll try mom".

"That's my girl. You know we just want you to be happy".

"I know mom".

"I'll fix you some grilled cheese and some lemonade okay".

"Thanks mom".

After I ate I headed out to my truck and made my way to Bucky's house to talk to Becca. She told me Bucky was at Steve's.

I knock on the door and Becca opens it.

"Hey Scar".

"Hey Bec".

"So what's up?"

"I need advice".

"About my brother?"

"Yes".

"Look, I'm so sorry for what that idiot did to you. But, he's also shook up about it and he's really sorry. I know that isn't good enough".

"I love him I do. It just hurts".

"I know hun".

"I think I'm gonna go to the diner and eat a hamburger or something".

"Are you gonna be okay?"

"Yeah I think so".

I left the house and made my way to the diner and I sit in my usual spot and order my food. I pick through the fries and I'm brought back to a memory.

It was a summer evening. The sun was still out some. Date night but we made Steve tag along because that's just what we did. Me and Bucky shared a strawberry shake. And had two baskets of fries and burgers. I was enjoying myself and as we listen to a story of Steve's I look up and see Bucky smiling and running the tip of his tongue over his lip and bitting it.

I blushed and hid my fave behind my napkin

I blushed and hid my fave behind my napkin. Bucky just smirked.

Guys, stop flirting at the table", laughed Steve.

We all just laugh and I sit next to Bucky and Steve loves across from us. Bucky takes his hand and laces his fingers through mine and holds it there and I lean my head against his shoulder. I felt safe like I belonged there.

I ate the rest of my meal and paid before making my way to the truck. I decided to go back to the house and get some reading done and go to bed.
