An Anastasia Winter Widow AU
"If you want to pass yourself off as Bucky, you gotta be a little more friendly," she accuses.
"Oh no," the Soldier grumbles. "Don't tell me this Barnes guy is some sort of cheerful do-gooder." Natalia shrugs, shifting her bag over her shoulder, then slips it off and hands it to him. He takes it with his left, the stronger arm, and stares at her.
"Bucky Barnes would hold a girl's bag for her," Natalia says and the Winter Soldier glares.
"Would he," he replies dryly and Natalia just smiles at him smugly and turns back around.
"Come on, Mr Barnes, we're almost to the station," she says and he follows her grumpily.

This is a sequel to Red Winter. I didn't plan on writing a sequel but here it is! Again, the events transpire in a timeline where they've restored everything after defeating Thanos and reversing the effects of the snap. This is focused on Natasha, Bucky and Steve only. I have always appreciated the dynamics of Steve and Natasha's relationship even if there is no romance in it. And I often wonder how Natasha and Bucky would interact in the present considering their past.
Again, I don't own Marvel and any of its characters. Just like you I daydream what happens between the fades in and fades out, between the end of the movie, its mid-credits scene and end-credit scene. And this is the result, one of the results.
I hope you enjoy and do leave a comment or vote :) Thanks!
