A Stucky Story

The Asset starts Pre-School part 2

Monday came faster than what Steve wanted it to. He wanted a little more time to prepare himself for this day, but they can't stall. Getting Bucky ready for school was a challenge in itself. Bucky probably didn't know what today was and that was okay. But once they arrived at the facility, he would probably think it was a therapy day. But it wasn't.

Early morning, Steve got Bucky dressed and fed. They walked Harley for a while then came back to pack Bucky's lunch. They had went out yesterday to go get his lunch bag and a few snacks but managed to snag another Paw Patrol bookbag that Bucky would not let go of. Steve packed a few apple sauces and blueberries. And a lollipop in case Bucky needed something sweet. He filled a cup with juice and hooked it on his bag. He packed an extra pair clothes, diapers and his blanket in his bag. Steve wanted to pack extra stuff but that felt overbearing. 

"Hey Buck?" Bucky looked at him, he was laying upside on the couch watching tv. "We're about to leave in ten minutes, can you go grab a toy you want to bring with you?" Bucky slid of the couch and went in the bedroom. Steve triple checked everything and wrote the numbers down of Rumlow and Natasha then he wrote down Sam's just in case the others didn't work out. He put Bucky's new tablet in his bag since it was likely Bucky would only use his original tablet for watching tv. Bucky came back holding Lamby, Star and Fin and the paci that Loki got him in his mouth.

"I said one and where did you get this?" Steve got the paci out of his mouth and put in the kitchen, judging by the dust on the kitten it's been under somewhere.

"Want." He pointed to the paci. Steve thought for a second then decided it was best to give it to him. He cleaned the paci and put it in the side pocket.

"Now, you can only bring one toy." Bucky shook his head. Steve sighed, Bucky always bring two or more animals. Maybe he needed more toys to keep him calm. "Never mind, bring those three. But two have to go in the bookbag." Bucky gave him Star and Fin. Steve tripled checked everything again and decided he would be okay for today.

"Okay, time to go."

"Going?" Bucky asked.

"Somewhere fun." If he said school, they probably wouldn't get anywhere. They went downstairs to the garage where Tony was downstairs working on a suit.

"Hey Buckster, you going to school?" Asked Tony.

"No." Said Bucky. Steve nodded. Tony grinned.

"I can already see how this is going so I'm not going to hold you two up. Have fun wherever you're going kid." Said Tony. Steve got Bucky and Harley in the car and put his book bag in the front seat.

"You going to be okay Rogers?" Asked Tony.

"I don't know." Steve started the car and left. He was hoping there would be some type of delay, but nothing was going as he wanted today.

Once they arrived at the facility, Steve  was already becoming nervous when Bucky was pulling him to sit on the couch. Usually when Bucky does this, he was becoming clingy. Today wasn't the day to be clingy.

Then the door opened.

"Good morning, how are we doing?" Asked Ms. Lisa.

"Okay, I guess."

"Good morning, Bucky. You ready to start learning?" Bucky shook his head. Ms. Lisa smiled.

"I think it's time for me to go." Said Steve.

"Yes, is everything in his bag?"

"Um, yes, he has extra clothes, I've decided to leave him in diaper for a while until he's use to all the change cause I'm pretty sure he won't tell you that he has to go until he trust you. So there's extra diapers in there. He has his blanket and toys for nap time. His learning tablet is in there. In his lunch bag is blueberries, apple sauces and a lollipop. And this is the number of the three people who can usually calm him down."
