Bucky Barnes was starting to feel some semblance of peace, one that he had been craving for since his time in Wakanda. Though not the same, but it was there. He had taken Sam's words to heart and started making amends, truly making them - his list of names getting smaller every time. 

But peace is overrated, it seems. 

When children are reported missing and eventually turning up dead with traces of the serum in their blood, Bucky is forced to seek help from a past acquaintance - the last name on his list.

Holding On | Bucky Barnes

32 parts Complete

It's been two months since Y/N returned to the Compound, but despite her best efforts, she can't seem to escape her trauma. Nightmares haunt her at night, while memories stalk her during the day; a never-ending cycle that she hopes she can smile her way through. She finds distraction in her busy schedule and a few quiet moments in-between, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't forget. And now that the world knows who she is, she likely never will. Some see her as a hero, others see her as a weapon. Y/N doesn't know which to believe-especially with the little control she feels she has over her life anymore. The journey to recovery is never easy, but Y/N thinks it may be impossible. *** [Part 2 of Reaching Out] [Bucky Barnes X Reader] [1st person POV] MAIN THEMES FROM PART 1: Y/N with powers, moving in with the Avengers, Bucky+Y/N romance, quick-burn, drama and trauma (of course), fluff on fluff on fluff. NOTES: Follows a timeline where Hydra is still active after 2014 (CA:WS), Avengers didn't break up after Civil War, and takes place ~one year after Bucky's return from Wakanda.
