Sam wakes up with a jolt when he thinks he hears a noise. He goes into Steve's room and he's already awake.
"Did you hear that?" Steve asks.
"I think so. It sounded like--"
"Glass." The two men rush into the other room and bust open the door to find you unconscious and Bucky on top of you. Steve knocks Bucky into the nearby wall and Sam rushes over to you. You and Sam grew up together. You're like a little sister to him.
"She's not breathing." Sam says after he checks your pulse and he immediately starts CPR. Bucky groans as he rubs his head.
"What happened?" Bucky asks. He looks down at his arm and sees a pen sticking out of it and then looks to the bed and sees you lying there, not moving. "Y/N?! What happened?!" He jumps towards the bed but Steve pushes him back.
"We should ask you!" Sam says continuing CPR.
"What?!" He looks at her throat and sees bruises. "I don't remember doing it. I remember going to sleep and waking up here.
"She's not responding!" Sam yells in a terrified tone.
"I wouldn't do anything to hurt her!" Bucky defends.
"Sam..." Steve says.
"No! She'll come back. She has to. I can't lose her. Not like this." He continues pushing and blowing air through her mouth.
Your eyes shoot open with a gasping breath throwing itself out off your lungs. You grab your throat, having a coughing fit.
"Y/N..." you hear Bucky call your name.
"Stay away from her!" Sam snaps. "I have to take her to the hospital. Make sure nothing's crushed." He helps you off the bed and you can't even bring yourself to turn around to look at Bucky. You and Sam leave, leaving Steve and Bucky alone.
"What happened Buck?" Steve asks.
"I don't know! I think I was doing it in my sleep. That's the only possible reason. I would never hurt Y/N especially like that!" He cries. "I've been having these dreams..."
"What kind of dreams?"
"I'm on top of Y/N, choking her and I pull out my gun and kill her." He sighs. "I can still feel it Steve. I can feel her shaking under me in pure fear. I never wanted it to come true."
"How long have you been having these dreams?"
"A couple days. The same one. Over and over and over."
"Why didn't you tell me?" He shrugs.
"What if she breaks up with me because of this? I don't want her to leave me. I love her."
"I know Buck. I know."

You and Sam walk in the apartment after leaving the hospital.
"Nothing's broken or crushed." Sam says. "Just bruised. She's on vocal rest for the next month." You sulk into your room and shut the door behind you and climb into your bed.
You hear a light knock on the door. You want to say come in but you can't so you knock the headboard twice and the door opens.
"Baby?" Your back is still facing the door. "Y/N, I am so sorry. I know you won't forgive me for this, but I'm hoping that you will. I love you so much." You climb out of bed and grab a notepad and a pen to write your responses. You write down what you have to say and show it to him. His eyes fill up to the brim with tears and he sighs. "Ok." He says softly. He leaves the room and you toss the notepad on the bed.
