CHAPTER 45

"What is going on with Bucky?" I said angrily. He was still down on the floor looking up at me. His smile faded and said, "Kaia, I would highly suggest you show some respect." "Why would I?" I laughed. "You started first." I faked a smile.

He rolled his eyes and said, "I'm pretty sure they have Hydra out of Bucky's mind, but you know- what can happen?'' He asked before I ignored him down the stairs. I saw him from the corner of my eye standing up and following me annoyed.

I went through the kitchen, the longest way but I would be able to distract him. After a few minutes of reaching the kitchen, it was all dark pitch, except for the city lights outside the window and- a metal hanging from the sofa.

I went to turn on the lights before someone grabbed my hand. "What the f-" I said before this person put a hand over my lips. I pushed the person back and turned on the lights to see.

To see Bucky standing in front of me.

His blue ice eyes looking at me.

I was in shock, did he run away? What is happening?

I couldn't breath, I couldn't-

"Hello, uh- I got lost, and I was told not to be loud while going up, are you ok?" He asked me. He is not a soldier, he's Bucky, but not our Bucky.

I already had tears running down my cheeks and he looked at me, the light in his eyes was gone. "Are you ok?" He said. "I- I'm sorry, it's just you remind me of someone that- that was really close to me," I said looking down.

"Oh, I'm sorry," he said looking at me. After what seemed an eternity of me looking down and him just looking at me I said. "Do you need help finding your room?" I said, hiding the tears with a little laugh.

He smiled back and said, "Yes, if you don't mind." I turned around to see Steve, watching us. I looked at Steve and hissed his name. "You are dead, you liar-" I said before Tony stopped me from behind.

"Kaia, what are you doing?" Tony said, holding me from my shoulders. "What are you doing?!" I said letting go of him. "Are you seriously going to tell me what I was doing?" I said laughing, while Bucky just looked at me.

I was exhausted. I felt like I was going to collapse at any second. "You need to go to your room," Tony said, looking tense. "What are you? My father?" I said angrily.

"I need to talk to you, urgently," Tony said, grabbing my wrist. "What is it?" I said gritting my teeth. "Does anyone know where I can find Nia?" Bucky asked. I looked back at Bucky and said, "Do you need to talk to her?" I asked him confused.

"Yes," he said, looking at me. I took a deep breath and said "Tony, you can find me in the lab," I said storming off.

2 MONTHS LATER.

I was in the lab, at 3 in the morning looking at files. If anything might have happened that we missed. Bucky was good, he healed, but he- he remembered nothing. It felt as if I was talking to someone who never noticed me.

2 good months of carrying three kids that I had no idea how it was going to go, I just hoped for the best. The reason why I woke up so early was that I couldn't sleep, I just couldn't handle the fact that Bucky isn't Bucky anymore.

Nat came down with me but she soon fell asleep on the sofa that Tony placed for anyone to use in the lab. I kept typing on the computer and looking back at old videos of Bucky. Tony still did not find the password to the file of Bucky's photos. So I tried doing it myself, even if I failed, multiple times.

I sighed angrily and shut the computer. I had nothing to do. When the avengers were gone all I could do was go to my room because I did not want to face Bucky. And Steve- oh Steve, he still did not apologize for what he did, and I did not even look him in the eye if there was a meeting.

BUCKY'S POV:

I woke up to sweat sliding down my forehead and tears falling from my eyes. It was a nightmare, I said to myself, but I knew it was anything but a nightmare. In the dream, there were the avengers, on the top floor of the Stark Tower, and everyone was screaming.

But there was this one person, she looked at Tony in the eyes and just said "What's going on?" she kept repeating it and screaming, but it seemed like I wasn't in the dream.

This woman sounded familiar, too familiar.

I had a feeling of who it could be, but it was probably a stupid dream. I stood up and rested my head on the wall. "Well how's the dream?" someone said from the inside of my room. I quickly jumped and turned on the lights.

The strange man that was always fighting with- the beautiful woman he met on his first day. "What are you doing here?" I said, trying not to show my tears. "I said, how's the dream," he said with a smirk.

"W-what dream?" I said, trying not to act as I knew. How did this guy know? "Oh please, at least tell me you know what was going on in that dream," he said, rolling his eyes.

"Well no, I do not know what was happening," I said looking at him. "Hmm, interesting. It must have been a mistake," he drawled.

"You didn't answer my question, why are you here?" I said angrily. "Tony sent me, just to get some results," he said smiling. I stared at him while he said, "Once you stop staring at me, while you follow me, they need you," he said, opening the door. I didn't even have the chance to say now, because he already left.
