Note: Fears, fluff mostly ^^
Pairing: Reader x Bucky; Dad!Bucky x Aurora (Platonic)
Bucky’s heart is racing so fast he could feel it in the balls of his feet. It has been that way since the moment his wife of two years had told him that she was pregnant. His entire world had just stopped, because it wasn’t that he didn’t want this child it was the fact that he was utterly terrified. “(Y/N), are you serious?” He questioned, feeling sweat bead onto his skin causing his palms to be clammy. “Yes, I went to the doctor’s because I was feeling sick and they told me I was pregnant! Are you not happy with that?” She frowned softly. “No! No, no I’m ecstatic.” He said before swallowing. “It’s just… what if..” He trailed off unsure of how to word it. “We’ll get through this together.” She whispered, cupping his face.
Now Bucky was currently sitting in one of the waiting room chairs with the others at his side. His metal hand had broken the chair’s arm and Tony sighed, telling the nurse he’d pay for the damage. “Buck, it’ll be okay.” Steve spoke in a calm voice that he used whenever Bucky would have an attack. “I… I’m worried.” Bucky’s voice was trembling as emotions swirled through his eyes with unshed tears. “That’s okay too Bucky. It’s worrisome, but (Y/N) is okay. You’re going to be a Father. You’re going to be an amazing father.” He whispered softly as Bucky nods before swallowing thickly. He slowly ran his flesh fingers through his hair as he bit his lip when the doctor came in.
Bucky was out of that chair so fast it almost went through the wall as everyone stood behind him. “How-How is she?” He asked, feeling like his legs were going to give out at any moment. “She’s doing just fine. Everything went wonderful. You can go see her and your baby.” The doctor led them down the hall as Bucky held tightly to Steve’s wrist while practically dragging him to the room. Bucky froze, seeing (Y/N) sitting up in the bed with a small pink bundle wrapped up in her arms. Bucky’s breath caught in his throat as he stepped through the threshold when (Y/N) looked up, hair a little ruffled but nothing too bad. She held a tired smile as Bucky offered her one in response.
“She’s beautiful.” Steve comments, rubbing his wrist when Bucky finally let go of his death grip on Steve. “She is.” (Y/N) agreed as Steve gently pushed Bucky forward. “Would you like to hold our little girl?” She asked as Bucky looked down to his little girl’s chubby face. She was only about five pounds and only about fifteen inches with her hat almost covering her face. Bucky’s vision was blurred from the thought that this little bundle was his and no one else’s. “Bucky?” She asked as he looked up to (Y/N) finally who shifted to offer out the baby. “Do you want to hold her?” She asked again as he stepped back causing her eyes to soften. Bucky looked utterly terrified to touch his little baby girl.
Steve made Bucky sit down in the chair by the bed before slowly picking up the small child as Bucky jerked in his place as if ready to move if she were to fall. “Here.” Steve spoke softly before he slowly slide her into his arm. Bucky stopped moving almost instantly as he looked down to this small baby who laid nestled inside a heap of blanket. Bucky's scared, because this tiny life was placed into his arms. This tiny life that he'd helped to create. He's terrified of messing up. After everything he's gone through. He wants nothing more than to have good come out of this. That's when her little hand wrap around the finger he uses to slowly caress her face.
He's afraid that if he uses anymore contact he might harm her, but all of that disappears the moment that little smile spread across her face. He knows he did something right. He can’t help but smile back, because this little light was his to protect. “You are so perfect.” He whispered to her as she nuzzled into the touch when he blinked away the tears. (Y/N) smiled taking Steve’s hand as she watches what use to be the Winter Soldier fawn over his daughter. “I love you so much already.” He whispered, placing a kiss onto her cheek as she shifted before her eyes slowly fluttered open. “Hey there little Winifred. I know you know Daddy’s voice.” He whispered when her smile grew.
(Y/N) tears up, covering her mouth as everyone watched the sight in front of them. “Yes, yes she does.” Steve whispers as Sam walks up. “Well congrats Dad.” Sam grins. Bucky chuckles softly never taking his eyes off her, because she was by far the most precious thing he’s ever held. That’s when the nurse came in a little bit later, smiling to everyone. “Hey, I’m gonna take the baby down to put her in the nursery so that Momma here can rest.” She laughs softly before walking over to Bucky who looked to her. He looked back down to his daughter with an expression that said he didn’t want to let her go. “Um, sir? May I please take the baby?” She asked.
Bucky tried not to let his protective side come out as (Y/N) holds back a fit of laughter at his pout-like face. As much as he didn’t want to give her up he knew that he had to which causes him to sigh softly before he slowly hands the small life up to the nurse. He moved so carefully as if his baby girl was made from glass when the nurse finally took her. She nods to them both before she walks outside as Bucky leans in his chair forward, watching her leave. “Steve.” He said when Steve sighed before he walked out of the room. “Where is he going?” Sam asked, quirking an eyebrow. “To follow the nurse.” Natasha said, smirking from Bucky to (Y/N) who chuckled softly.
“She won’t hurt the baby Bucky.” (Y/N) said as Bucky nods. “You’re right. Steve won’t let her fall.” Bucky states when (Y/N) laughs. “I’m guessing you love her.” She whispered before Bucky smiles. “More than anything.” He whispered as she grins softly. “And to think about two days ago you were so worried about being a good Dad to her.” Sam comments. “And that little girl was wrapped around your metal finger.” Tony grins as Bucky’s face flushes gently. “You’ll be a good dad, you know why?” Natasha asked as he looked at her. “You have seventy years of love to give to not only (Y/N), but no her as well.” Natasha smiled causing Bucky to smile back.
A few minutes later Steve returned back as they looked to him. “She’s fine. Well she actually wasn’t fine the moment the nurse started walking down the hall away from her Dad.” He chuckles, rubbing the back of his neck. “Must remember my voice too, because she looked at me and just grinned.” Steve smiled like a dork. “Guess you and Sharon will need to start popping babies soon.” (Y/N) said as Steve’s entire face lit up. “Y-Yeah… I mean maybe some day.” He mumbled as everyone started laughing. “Come on, we should let (Y/N) rest.” Bucky looks to (Y/N) who smiles tiredly. He leans over and presses a kiss to her lips. “I’ll be back tomorrow morning.” He whispered as she nods, smiling softly.
After everyone walked out and (Y/N) was now laying down to rest Bucky walked over to the nursery as everyone followed him. “There she is.” Steve pointed to the small little Winnie in between two young boys. “There’s my little light.” Bucky whispered while everyone surrounded him, smiling. Bucky slowly placed his metal hand up onto the glass when Winnie shifted her hand and placed it onto the plastic siding. It was hard to imagine himself standing here with a normal life after everything that had happened to him. It was hard to imagine that he use to be the Winter Soldier and assassin with no remorse for those he had slaughtered. However, now that he’s here… He wouldn’t want it any other way.
