Sharon wasn't the cuddly, "i'm going to fall asleep in your arms" type, especially after Madripoor, but for the past four months she'd spent almost every night curled up in bed with either Sam or Bucky- some nights even both. It was a habit now. A habit she had no intentions of breaking any time soon.
The agent was curled tightly against Bucky, falling asleep after just minutes of laying down next to him, but a few hours into her slumber she began to stir. Images of bodies, beaten, brutalized, and shot littered the ground. Old co-workers, innocent civilians, children, her father, and the entirety of the Avengers- all scattered. Sharon sat crouched behind a pile of bodies, her hand clutching her lifeless father's, as the Winter Soldier raised Steve by the neck, snapping in within a second before tossing his body right next to Sam's lifeless one.

She screamed once again before it was cut off, a metal hand wrapped tightly around her neck. His eyes were dark and empty as he began choking her, Sharon's body flailing and fighting to no avail. Then his knife is raised, held fiercely in the sky before plummeting into her side.
With a loud gasp, Sharon woke up, her eyes wide as she turned her head- only to meet those same blue eyes that were just choking her seconds ago. Those same blue eyes that took away everything she loved. Fear and horror covered her face as she let out a small cry, her feet and hands scrambling to get away from him, screaming when she saw him reach out for her. "No! No! No!"
