Avengers X Reader
Warnings: not really any warnings, it's more of a lil slice of life chapter
------------------------------------------------------------------
When Steve and Bucky first rejoined everyone at the compound, Bucky was still a shell of the man he was.
(Y/N) hadn't got involved with the accords. She knew they wouldn't end well and the only option that didn't make her want to rip her insides out was to just stay out of it. Retire in a way. Of course both sides tried to recruit her and she felt incredibly bad for declining them, but it had been impossible to tell which side would undergo more damage, so she picked her side and stepped aside.
Once the whole ordeal had been sorted and the accords destroyed, she returned to the compound with the others.
Everyone was hurting and Tony was to blame for a great deal of the pain. But he had good intentions, and he hadn't escaped the battle wound free.
Avengers were scattered around the living room, Steve, Bucky and Sam in the corner whispering. The others all enjoying their own conversations. All apart from Tony who was sat alone in a chair, away from the rest. Why he wasn't in his lab was beyond everyone, everyone apart from (Y/N). He wanted forgiveness, but didn't know how to ask for it. So he was just here, being present in the room, baby steps.
(Y/N) approached him.
"Hey" she greeted with her usual smile.
"Hi" Tony mumbled, he may have wanted to be present but he needed to do more than just physically be here.
"How are you?" She asked, placing a tentative hand on his shoulder.
"Good" he lied.
"You know you can't lie to me" (Y/N) gave him a half smile, hoping that it conveyed that she didn't blame him for what had happened, but acknowledged that he could've gone about things in a better way. A lot to expect from a half smile.
"I know, but I can try" a small laugh escaped his lips. (Y/N) pulled him into a hug allowing her calm energy to engulf him. He wrapped his arms round her and once his breathing had evened out she released him.
"Come on" she said taking him by the hand."What?" He questioned
"If you want forgiveness, sometimes you have to ask for it. Not everyone just knows things you know" she pulled him along to the group of men in the corner and he audibly gulped in fear.
"(Y/N)" Steve exclaimed, the pair shared a quick embrace, before (Y/N) gave Sam a quick hug too. She turned to Bucky.
"You don't seem like a hugger" she said snapping finger guns at him as she stated her thoughts. "I'm gonna go for fist bump" she wrapped her hand into a fist and put it out for him to bump his with. But he was staring past her at Tony. Steve nudged him and he turned his attention to the (H/C) haired girl in front of him.
"Oh sorry" he muttered, weakly pushing his fist against hers. "I didn't see you during the-" he cut himself off, not knowing wether it was okay to mention the fight this soon after it had happened.
"The fight, yeah. I retired for a bit, I'm (Y/N) by the way" she responded. "It's good to be back" she smiled brightly at the boys and nudged Tony lightly, silently urging him to say something.
"Hey" he greeted. (Y/N) knew he was too prideful to apologise without some help.
"Me and Tony were just talking about how good it is to have everyone back again. We should have a barbecue to celebrate" (Y/N) said, hoping Tony would at least agree if not let down his walls.
