*Complete* A Marvel Cinematic Universe FanFiction Formerly Titled "Please Stay" When a nameless man showed up in Iris' doorway holding out the ad she'd placed looking for a new temporary tenant, he was nothing at all like anyone she'd ever encountered; he felt dangerous. But he also felt...lost. A part of her knew she should close the door in his face. But for some reason that didn't stop her from handing him the key. He was only looking for a place to lie low, a place to recover and start to regroup after what happened on the doomed Helicarrier. A temporary place where he could maybe begin to pull his shattered mind back together and begin to remember who he was...he'd been called Bucky? What he didn't anticipate was finding a haven in the skinny townhouse... ...and in her. *** Post-Captain America: Winter Soldier up to and Including Captain America: Civil War.
