I walked into the room softly so that I wouldn't wake up Bucky. Maria was in the room reading a book. "Hey." I said. She saw me and motioned me outside. When we got outside I asked, "is he going to ok?" She sighed and noded. "At the moment, he is stable. Good thing you got to him when you did. The doctor said that if he was even out for two more minutes, he might have died." I looked at her and knew she was not okay. "I'm going to restate that question, are you okay?" I saw a tear go down her face. "I'll be fine." She said quietly. I hugged her knowing she needed it. She hugged back and let go. "Thank you Steve." She said. "I need to go back." I nodded. As she walked back, Nat came into the hallway. "Is he going to be okay?" "Yeah, he'll be fine. How about you and me go back to the woods and take another walk." She smiled and said "My hero"
