Bucky put his phone back on the bedside table and got up to go and find some breakfast. He entered the kitchen and then heard a clatter from behind him. “Alpine, what’ve you do—”
He turned around and saw Steve Rogers standing by an open window with long hair, a bloody face and combat gear caked in mud.
There were straps and pockets and hooks all over his clothes; a gun strapped to his back beneath a shield with a red skull on it. His fists were clenching and unclenching, nostrils flaring with air his eyes looked too scared to take in, body six-foot-something and built like a truck, but in Bucky’s eyes he was the smallest he’d ever been. “I know you.” Steve said in a whisper.
-
Steve fell from the train, Bucky crashed the plane. And somewhere, in amongst all of it, is Natasha.
