Being pregnant is not easy they say. Now try to be pregnant, from a super soldier. Right? Just imagine that itâs like a normal pregnancy but two times harder. When I first find out I am pregnant, I never felt happier, and I just couldnât believe, Iâm growing a living being in my body, from the man I love the most. Bucky Barnes.
We are together for 2 years now. I became an avenger just a few months after Bucky did. Therefore we quickly became friends, then easily lovers. We had a lot in common, and Bucky really trusted me, and also he was super sweet, and caring, so it was not hard to fall for him. For me the whole group is like a family, and I love every single one of them, but Bucky means everything to me and I love him so much.
After two years, we did think about having a family. We both wanted kids, but our work made it kind of impossible. I was an avenger, and he was too. Our work is already hard, and sometimes we barely have time for each other, and we couldnât really just have a âfamily leaveâ. Then we knew Clint did it somehow, Â and actually we couldnât stop thinking, and talking about it.
So we had a deal. If I get pregnant from the first three tries then we will have a baby. We talked about everything that will happen if we will have a baby. Until Iâm pregnant weâll stay here, because itâs safe here, and we will search for a safe house, then when the baby is born we move to there, and for a few years, I won't be an avenger, and Bucky will be with me in the first two years. There was a slight change that in that case we will never be avengers again.
And if I don't get pregnant then we wait a little bit, maybe a few years, when we are really ready. Or maybe just think about it again, because maybe itâs not a good idea, especially for us. Actually, itâs kind of impossible to imagine two avengers, living a normal life, with a family. And if that happens, maybe thatâs the best for us, and for everyone.
And well... No one thought it will be successful on the first try. When Bruce told me the great news, I asked him, to check it again, because I couldnât believe it. Bruce also said, that probably because Bucky has super serum, therefore, itâs not that unbelievable that I got pregnant from the first try, but still I felt extremely proud for myself.
From the moment I told Bucky he couldnât stop smiling. I never saw him happier before. Also he was really sweet and gentle with me. I had the craziest cravings, and even if I woke Bucky up at like 2 am he still went and get me what I want. Also he read a lot of books about pregnancy and kids, when he thought Iâm not watching. He is really amazing.
But as weeks, and months passed, my pregnancy got really bad. I was in so much pain, and I throw up all the time, and craved at the same time. Also I couldnât work out anymore, and it made me really sad, but Bucky was there for me, and our baby was in my belly, which was still unbelievable for me. The rest of the Avengers always visited me, and spend a lot of time with me.
One of the hardest and best time was when I was 5 months pregnant. Best because we could see our baby for the first time. I remember that first it was just the two of us and Bruce. Bucky couldnât wait to see our baby finally. When I asked him if he wants a boy or a girl, he said, he doesnât care, he just wants to see it. I thought itâs extremely sweet, and I was pregnant, so I started crying. He thought he said something wrong, but I told him itâs fine and he was just sweet.
Then Bruce showed us our baby. It was a boy. I was so amazed, and I literally, couldnât say anything. I just watched him as he was chilling in my belly, moving a little. I heard sniffing, next to me. I looked over and I saw Bucky in tears. I grabbed his hand and smiled at him. He smiled back, and wiped off the tears, and kissed the top of my head.
After we both cried for a little, we let the rest of the group in to see him. The boys started to âfightâ about who will be the uncle, and the girls already started to think about what kind of toys, and clothes they will buy for him. Everyone was so supportive, and extremely nice. This baby, will have an amazing family for sure.
But there were some bad things too. I am not as tall as Bucky, and definitely not as heavy, and strong, so for me, having a baby with super serum was really challenging, and hard. When the baby kicked I felt like someone just hit me in the stomach with a baseball bat. I literally visited Bruce every other day, and he told me that the baby is fine, he is just really strong, and lets hope that my body can take it.
When he told me this I was laying there in shock. He said it was just a joke, and everything will be fine, but probably it will be more painful, than for other women, which I already knew. And I couldnât stop thinking about giving birth. What if he will be too big and I literally canât push him out?
But this was not the only bad thing. For some reason Bucky got a mission. A four day mission. He didnât want to go, because he wanted to be with me, every day through the pregnancy, and help me, but I convinced him to go, because itâs his job and they need him. And also I had Steve to look out for me.
Before Bucky went for the mission he gave Steve a list of what should he do when I... .And the list was really long. I remember one time I was laying in bed, and Steve was sitting in a chair next to me reading, and I told him that I am hungry. He grabbed the list and started searching like crazy. I started laughing so hard, that he got scared, that I will hurt the baby.
âDonât worry, he is stronger than you think, thanks to his daddy.â I said when I finally stopped laughing caressing my belly.
âOh.. okay. And what do you want to eat?â He asked me.
âHmmâ For a second I thought he will search on the list again âAppleâ
âJust an app..â He asked
âWith peanut butterâ I cut him off âAnd some oreos too please. And pickles, with some leftover pizza. Oh and apple juice pleaseâ I said.
He nodded trying to process everything. âAnything elseâ
âUmm. No thank youâ I said smiling.
Steve walked out and I leaned back on my bed turning on the tv, to watch something. Finally I found a good series I can binge watch. I was in the middle of the episode, when I realized Steve is still not back. I paused the episode, and sit up. I listened maybe i could hear something, but I didnât hear anything. I got out of bed, to go and look after him.Â
âSteve?â I asked as I opened my door. There was no-one there, but it seemed like something is not right. It was way too quiet.Â
I was about to ask Friday when suddenly I heard a loud noise. I looked over where the sound came from and I saw a guy with a gun in his hand. He flew through the door, and now he is in the room. For a second we both looked at each other in shock. He was quicker than me and he grabbed me holding the gun to my head, right when Steve ran through the door.
I tried to stay calm. Steve was shocked seeing me in his hands, with a gun next to my head, and he put down his shield, and raised his arm in the air. I already know Friday, alarmed everyone, so I will be fine. At least thatâs what I said to myself to stay calm. The guy asked Steve to kick away his shield and he did as he said.Â
I didnât wanted him to do this, and I would sacrifice myself anytime for any of the Avengers member, but now it was different. Itâs not just about me, I had living being inside of me, that I have to protect no matter what, even if it costs my life, but now the only way I can protect him is to stay alive. I heard heavy, running steps coming from the hallway. The guy stepped back with me. I already knew who is coming.
Bucky ran into the room with a gun in his hand. He just came back from the mission, and ran here. He looked in my eye, and I could tell he wants to calm me, but he was just as terrified as me. He looked at Steve for a second and then back at us. He pointed his gun at the guy.
âLet her goâ He was angry and really scared, but I knew he could kill him with his bare hands, because he was so angry.
âOr what? I want informations, all the datas, everything.â He said, not easing the grip. I was looking for ways, to get out, but all of them was way too dangerous.Â
âLet her go and youâll get everything.â Bucky said without a hesitation.
The guy looked at me and Bucky back and forth. âAah. I understand now. But no. She stays with me until I get what I want. You have 10 minutes, or...â He said pointing the gun at my belly.
Now we all panicked. I saw a tear in Buckyâs eyes, and stepping one step closer, but quickly realising it would just make everything worse. My tears started to flow. âPlease no..â I pleaded. The guy didnât even listen to me. Steve told everyone to get the datas, and infos.
âNow thatâs what I like to hearâ The guy said.
A few minutes passed, and I almost thought I am going to die, but then I saw Bucky looking behind me for a second, but quickly looking back. It was almost impossible to see that, but I knew him well. Help is right behind me, and I hope the help is named Natasha Romanoff. I could relax a little and hope for the best.
I heard a grunting behind me and the guy suddenly let me go. Bucky ran to me and held me close to himself, then turn me around to shield me with his body, if the guy somehow shoots us. Natasha was quick, and good. He kicked the guy and he fell on the ground, and dropped the gun. Before Nat could kick it away the guy quickly grabbed it and pointed it at us.
He shoot at us, but Bucky shield us with is metal arm. He almost shoot us again but before he could pull the trigger, Steve threw his shield at him, and he dropped the gun on the ground. Then Natasha kicked his face so hard that I could hear his nose break. Maybe he was still alive, or he was dead I didnât care.
I hugged Bucky as close to my as the baby let me. He hide his face in my neck and I relaxed in his arms. He whispered me, to calm me down and it worked. Iâm safe now, the baby is safe, and thatâs what really matters. Natasha ran out to help the others, but Steve stayed there with us.
âYou can go. Iâm here for her, Iâll protect them.â Bucky said.
Steve nodded and ran after Natasha. Bucky picked me up and take me to our bedroom. He put me down on the bed and grabbed his knifes from the drawer just for safety. Soon we heard, the sirens of the police and we knew we are safe now. I hugged Bucky again.
âI never said welcome back..â Â I whispered to him.
âItâs okay. You are safe now, and Iâm here to protect you. Both of you. Iâll never leave your side again. I promiseâ I smiled at him and kissed him. He kissed my forehead and I leaned on him, and soon fell asleep.
Someone knocked on our door, and we both wake up. We were tangled up, and I used Bucky like he was my pregnancy pillow. I giggle and got off of him. Â Bucky gave me a quick kiss before he walked to the door and opened it. Steve was standing there nervously.Â
âIâm so sorry, everything happened so fast, and they captured all of the others... I shouldâve stayed here and protect her. Iâm really sorry.â He said, and I could see he is extremely sorry, and worried. âBut the baby okay right?â
âYou did what you had to Steve, and nothing bad happened. They are both fine, and safe now.â Bucky smiled at him and let him in. Steve stand next to me and Bucky sit next to me.
âHe is fine, I donât even think he reali....â I suddenly stopped. The horror sits out on Buckyâs and Steveâs face. I donât know what was going on in their mind, but it was scary. I think they were both ready to take me to labor, or helping me give birth right here.
I quickly grabbed Buckyâs hand and he was even more shocked and scared. I put his hand on my stomach and waited for his reaction. Bucky looked at him, and he was so worried. Steve just stood there not understanding whatâs going on.
The baby kicked again. I smiled up at Bucky. He gasped and put both of his hands on my stomach. He kicked once more and he giggled, and I could see a few tears in his eyes. He leaned down to kiss my belly, and put his face next to it. I caressed his head and smiled down at him.
âHe just kicked for the first time.â I looked up at Steve. I felt like Iâm the happiest person on the planet. Steve relaxed, and smiled at us. He kissed my head and left the room. We stayed in the same position for a while.
I could see the tears in Bucky eyes, but it was happy tears. We both enjoyed our little baby kicking. Then he kicked his daddyâs face. I laughed and Bucky played like it hurt so much. He put back his head and got kicked again. We played this for a while, and I could tell he will be the best father ever.
âGod I love you both.â Bucky said kissing me but his hands never left my belly.
