"Serenity, I promise I will not hurt you." The Winter Soldier assures me and I back away again. Fear was written plainly across my body. "You have no right to call me that." I hiss at him as I back up again. I trip and I fall landing on my injured wrist again. I wince but before I can protest, the Winter soldier was kneeling next to me. "Let me help." He whispers as he takes my injured wrist in his human one. "I'm Bucky now." His eyes search mine. I knew this was my Bucky. The one who tended my wounds after the Winter Soldier caused them. "You said that last time." I whisper so he can just hear. His eyes are filled with my same pain. "It's a promise I intend to keep it this time." His metal hand gently touches my hand and I visibly wince. The pain was pretty bad and the cold from his arm brought back bad memories. "Let us help you."

❝Warrior child, you carry such coldness in your veins. War-torn child, you carry such loneliness in your bones. War-born child, you carry such horror in your heart. Warrior child, you were born with legends breathing inside your name and history books waiting to trace your footsteps.❞ ─ j.p. via tumblr pencap COPYRIGHT 2015 JASPERHAIE.
