Bucky Barnes Imagines

The Future: Part Two

I hate to do this to you all, but I must mention a trigger warning. There is a death in this part, so if you don't want to read anything of that sort or get triggered by that, please don't read this. I don't want to upset any of you because that's never my intention. I just want you all to be aware before you proceed.

I hope y'all are staying safe

Y/n woke up to bright lights. She looked around to see she was in a hospital room. Everything that happened resurfaced in her mind, and she grew overwhelmed. She reached up, and y/n was relieved to feel her locket around her neck.

She was about to get up when a hand held on to hers. She looked to see Bucky sitting by her bed.

"Hey Doll."

She lied back down and faced him. When she faced him, Bucky was relieved to see her breathing and heart rate had gone back to normal.

"I know this is a lot to take in." Bucky murmured.

"Of course it is. I, I was back in the forties. I thought...." She tried not to cry. "Steve came back, and he tells me he came from the future. He sends me here with no explanation. I... I just don't understand. Why wouldn't he explain anything?"

Bucky wiped her tears away and offered her some water. "I don't know."

"I... He's old now isn't he?"

"He is, and he isn't doing well. Peggy died several years ago, and his health has been declining ever since. I'm sorry y/n."

After hearing the news, y/n was feeling a mishmash of emotions all clashing with one another. She didn't realize she was holding onto his metal hand. Bucky looked down to noticed his whole arm was turning gold and flowers were wrapping around him. By the time he realized, it had made it's way to his shoulder, and she had passed out.

"What happened? Whoa." Bruce came in noticing both y/n and Bucky as well as his arm.

"She never had powers before." Bucky answered.

"She might have gotten the powers from the jump. Her vitals are okay. She'll wake up soon, but for now I should check on your arm."

Bruce was fixing to check on his arm when the flowers pulled away from Bucky's arm. They found themselves on his head giving him a flower crown. Then, the gold melted into his skin, and he as well as Bruce were shocked. His metal arm was gone, and his real arm and hand replaced it. He pulled his t-shirt from his shoulder to see all the scarring was gone.

"It seems she has gained healing abilities. Just to make sure it's not an illusion, can you see veins and does your arm feel real?"

Bucky replied yes to both, and Bruce left to go check on y/n's tests to see what he might've missed. By the time Bruce left, y/n had woken back up. Bucky didn't know if he should tell her what happened right away.

"James... I know this is sudden, but with everything that's happened. James, I love you."

"Darlin' I love you too. I'm just sorry I didn't get to tell you sooner." He held her hand again and smiled as he felt a tear slip down his cheek. "I've missed you."

"I've missed you too Bucky. I just wish things were a bit different. When do you think I'll get out of here?"

"I don't know, but I could walk you around. I know you were never a fan of hospitals."

She smiled for the first time, and Bucky helped her up. She hooked her arm in his and slowly got up. He walked her down the hallways and was happy she was in his arms again. He just hated she was going through all this, but he was going to help her every step of the way.
