Bucky's PoV ⋆ ☽ ⋆
I sat in the chair next to Percy's hospital bed listening to her breathing as the heart monitor beeped.
After she'd been shot, we rushed her to the compound Med Bay where-thankfully-they'd managed to save her thanks to Helen Cho.
My eyes scanned her features: her olive skin was getting back it's glow, her blueish black hair in a french braid Natasha had done whilst she was asleep, the breathing tube leading from her nose made me cringe. I hated how badly she was hurt. She was my Percy and I'd let her get shot-right in front of me.
For a split second, I thought she was dead. I remember letting out a gut wrenching scream before I caved Elliot's head in...the gory scene making Wanda audibly sob in Clint's arms. That day, even Natasha cried.
"You kept your promise" Percy said with a raspy voice.
I nearly jumped from the chair when she spoke. I grappled her hand hurriedly and couldn't stop the huge grin that spread across my face: she was alive and speaking to me.
"What promise, doll?" I sniffled trying to contain my emotions.
"You said you'd be with me till my heart stops beating. It did and you stayed" she chuckled, she slowly turned her head to face me and that was when I broke down.
Seeing her gorgeous green eyes back to normal, the life returning to them and that mischievous sparkle there made me so elated. I began crying-whimpers escaped my lips whilst I nestled my head in between her arm and torso, my tears staining the blanket Tony had got for her.
"Amore? Hey, hey" she soothed, her weak hand stroking my hair back from my forehead.
"I'm here" she stroked my head gently.
Lifting my face from the blue, fluffy blanket, I made a decision.
I stood up slightly, leaning further towards her. My heart ran a mile a minute and my hands shook because this was what I'd been waiting for since the day I saw her punching the shit out of that boxing bag in the gym. My lips pressed onto her beautifully soft ones and I felt her kiss me back.
I pressed a little harder to convey my passion and love for this woman. Breaking apart for oxygen just in time to see her wonderful smile, she parted her lips to speak.
"Ti voglio bene, James Buchanan Barnes" she grinned. Ti voglio bene=I love you
She loved me? The world stopped turning there and then. She loved me? I would crawl to the ends of the earth for her; I'd kill anyone and anything that tried to hurt her; I'd give her my wild inside; I'd give her a child; I would do absolutely everything it took to see her smile just once because I was so so so in love with her.
