CG: Bucky Barnes
Little: Y/N (She/Her)
Babysitter: Natasha Romanoff

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Y/N, малышка, you need to settle down."
Natasha was currently trying her best to calm Y/N down, the little has been crying non stop for the past 20 minutes.

Ever since Bucky left for a mission, she's been moody all week. However she had something that helped her be in a good mood, her Bucky Bear. A bear that Bucky gave her when he first found out she was a little. He had Wanda make the bear for Y/N, it had dark brown fur like his hair, and a silver arm just like his.
It helped her stay calm whenever he was away.. but it's been missing for a day now, and with her young headspace, she couldn't help but be upset.

"I wan' dada!! I-I wan' dada!"
She chanted between hiccups, huge tears were rolling down her cheeks. Natasha sighed, she carried her in her nursery and set her down on the changing table. Y/N fussily kicked her legs to get Natasha away from her, but Natasha managed to keep calm. She quickly changed you out of your used diaper and managed to dress you up in a legless onesie.

She eased a pacifier in Y/N's mouth, which she accepted, but it didn't stop her cries.

These intense feelings weren't uncommon for Y/N. Even when she was big, it was hard for her to keep complete calm when Bucky was gone. Her heart couldn't help but feel feelings of worry and wistfulness.
All she wanted was for Bucky to hold her in his arms and tell her that he was going to be okay..and the other half of her wanted him to come back alive.

She knew the dangers of him going out on missions even if she was small. Hydra could find him again and potentially turn him into the winter soldier. He promised Y/N every time that he would come back in one piece, but her mind couldn't help but race with different thoughts. Without her caregiver and bear to keep Y/N at bay, it seemed like almost nothing could calm her down.
Natasha lifted Y/N into her strong arms, her reddish hair was covering Y/N's vision from seeing anything in her path.
"I'm so sorry, Y/N. You miss him a lot, hm?"
She could feel Y/N nod in her shoulder.

"It's going to be okay. He's going to come back tomorrow, remember? You'll be able to cuddle with him all day tomorrow."
She kissed Y/N's cheek, and started to walk to the crib in her nursery. She carefully rested Y/N in there and pulled up the covers, "Try and get some sleep, малыш. I'll be here when you need me."

"N-no.. I wan' bwear.. I wan mwy 'ucky bear, Nana."
She whined behind her pacifier, Natasha frowned. She's been trying to find it all day for Y/N but to no avail. For all she knew, it could be anywhere.

"I know baby, I know. Nana is going to try and find him soon. Maybe by the time you wake up, someone will be here to see you, принцесса."

A small smile creeped behind Y/N's pacifier, her tears were finally starting to disappear.
Natasha leaned in for one final kiss on the cheek, "Goodnight, малышка. I'll see you in the morning."

Natasha turned off the lights in the room, small glow in the dark lights started to shine through the room.
She turned on the mobile above the crib as one last final touch, a calming lullaby started to play.
She walked towards the door and walked out of the room, she closed the door a small bit so that there was only a slight crack.

"Jarvis?"

"Yes, Ms Romanoff?"

"I need you to do me a favor and try to find Y/N's bear, can you possibly.. scan the place?"

"I can certainly try my best, this may take me a moment, Ms Romanoff. I apologize in advance."

"Thank you, Jarvis."

"No problem, Ms. Romanoff."

That was one issue somewhat out of the way. Natasha grabbed her phone out of her pocket and started to dial Bucky's number,

"Hello?"

"Hey, how you've been?"
She asked.

"Not too bad, I guess. I actually should be back home by tonight. How are you and Y/N?"

"I'm fine, but Y/N has been missing you. She lost her bear and she hasn't been..in the best of moods all day."

"Poor baby, sorry Natasha. Me and Steve are trying to get back by 11:00, is she asleep?"

"I just put her down for a nap, I don't think she'll sleep through the night, though."

"Didn't think so. Okay, we'll be back soon. Thank you Tash."

"No problem, be safe."

Beep

The assign sighed, she really couldn't do much now that all problems were starting to get resolved. So she just decided to go on the couch and watch TV for awhile. It's been a pretty long day for her and Y/N, so this was some much deserved rest for the both of them.

~Timeskip~

"What if he didn't come back."

"What if Hydra got him, again?

"Would he even remember me? Would he remember what we have?"

"What if I can't help find him if he's gone?"

Y/N jolted awake from her adult thoughts. She could feel warm tears rolling down her cheeks, she couldn't help but let them continue. She hated when these types of thoughts would come to her when regressed. It made her feel somewhat helpless because of her state. Y/N went to reach for her bear, but was met with an empty bed.

She had forgotten that her bear was missing. Small audible whines started to come from behind her pacifier, she tried to get out of her crib to try and get help, but her legs felt like jelly, her arms felt weak, making her fall down on her backside.
She was met with a wet feeling between her legs.

That was it, that was the last straw for her. Y/N's pacifier dropped to the bed, crying slightly louder. She didn't want these adult thoughts. All she wanted was for Bucky to come back, she wanted her Bucky Bear,
she wanted to be held in Bucky's strong arms again, she wanted to cuddle with him so she could have an actual good nights' rest.

*creak*

Y/N paused at the sudden noise at the door.
Without hesitation she went back under the covers and hid her body in the blankets. She loved Natasha, but she didn't want her right now.
She could her heavy foot steps come closer to her crib,
she braced herself to be carried by Natasha,

"Where did my beautiful doll go? I would really love to see her."

Y/N almost gasped at the nickname and the voice, that wasn't Natasha. It was Bucky! She quickly undid the covers from herself and revealed her head, she was met with a very tired looking Bucky. His hair was up in a bun, he was still wearing an outdoor jacket.
"Dada!!"
You screamed, holding your hands out urgently for him.

"There's my girl." he cooed at Y/N. He didn't hesitate to bring her into his arms, he could hear small cries coming from her. He gently shushed Y/N while swaying back and forth, his metal hand went through her (H/C) hair. "It's okay, sugar. I'm home, I'm not going anywhere." He whispered whilst kissing Y/N's cheek, he could feel the dampness between her legs, he walked over to the changing table and gently rested her down.

Y/N immediately jolted up her arms again, "No dada no! U-up!"

"I know baby," he shushed you softly, "I just have to change you real quick, can you be a big girl for me and stay still?"
Though she wanted to be in his arms, she nodded.
He kissed her forehead and started to pop the buttons off of your onesie.

He untaped all of the sides of the diaper and removed it from her legs, he grabbed a pair of wipes and started to wipe down her lower area. When that was done he grabbed a diaper from underneath Y/N's changing table, but Y/N noticed there was something else in his metal hand.
With a smile, he revealed her lost bear.
A gasped escaped Y/N's lips, " 'ucky bwear!!" She held out her arms and made grabby hands for the bear. Bucky chuckled and handed her the bear without question. Y/N held the bear to your chest, hugging it tightly. She missed the bear's fuzzy embrace.

"Almost done, baby."
He placed a diaper beneath her, and started to pull it up to her waist. He quickly taped the sides of the diaper and buttoned the buttons on her onesie again.
"C'mere, baby."
He lifted Y/N up from the changing table and carried her in his arms. His jacket was still cold from the outside, but she didn't care. She finally was getting the cuddles she's been wanting for so long!
He hummed a old song while walking out of the nursery, he closed the door with his free hand.

" 'ere we goin?"
She asked, you hopped it wasn't anywhere decides here. Y/N wouldn't admit it to Bucky but she was seriously tired right now, she were running on only 10 hours of sleep from the past three days.

"We're going to my room, sugar. Me and you definitely need some sleep."
To Bucky's surprise, there was no objection. He opened the door to his room, it looked just like it did before. He rested Y/N on the bed, covering her with the many layers of blankets there were on his bed.

He took off his jacket and his old shirt, going to his closet to get a different outfit for himself. He could hear her whines from behind the room, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"It's okay, doll. I'll be there in a minute."

He was true to his word, quickly changing his shirt and pants into something more comfortable.
He took his hair out of the bun style and let it down, he his hair a little, making it wavy all around.
Bucky got in the bed next to her, he brought Y/N close to his chest. He kissed her cheek, "I love you, Y/N. Get some good sleep okay? We're going to have a day with just us tomorrow."

She loved the sound of that idea. That's all she's been wanting for the past week.
With a happy nod, she leaned into Bucky's embrace,

"Night night, Dada..I 'ove you 'oo."
