-3rd person POV-
Bucky slammed the door behind him as he walked to meet Steve for training, knowing Sam would probably be out there by now, walking back down the hall to the lounge a frown marring his features as he thought about Liv, more and more often she crossed his mind theses days, they all worried about her, none of them could get her to open up about what happened when she was taken, they tried to find her, she was gone for 3 months, Tony and Pepper going out of their minds after each failed mission to the Hydra bases to get her, starting to lose hope until F.R.I.D.A.Y finally picked up a signal from her tracker, getting her home Tony kept her back at the farm for a few weeks before allowing her back to the compound, having her away from the training and the missions, hoping to aid in her recovery.
Bucky thought for a second as he opened the door leading to the training field, the early morning sun warming his skin slightly as he looked at Steve who as Bucky thought was now joined by Sam, there has to be something they could do to bring her back.
"Hey Buck, how is she?" Steve asked as he approached,
Bucky shook his head "Same as usual, she thinks we didn't care enough to help her"
"She would have only said that to get a reaction Buck, we will find a way to help her, it will just take time, you weren't much different when we got you back" Steve stated "now come on, we better get running if we want to make the meeting in time"
Bucky frowned again but followed Steve and Sam as they started jogging down the track.
-Liv POV-
I sat looking towards the door after Bucky left, instead of anger I now just felt numb, still cradling the bottle of whiskey I sat in it on my bedside table crawling under the covers or my bed and closing my eyes
"Miss Stark, you father is calling" F.R.I.D.A.Y announced
"Ignore it" I muttered crawling further under the blanket.
"He is insisting he speaks with you miss Stark" F.R.I.D.A.Y stated
"I. Do. Not Care! ignore it" I snapped
"Is that anyway to treat your father?" I groaned, removing the blanket from my head as my dad entered my room phone to his ear
"Dad, why are you here?" I asked looking at him, he was dressed semi smart black trousers, white shirt and dinner jacket, no tie,
"I have a meeting with the team and thought I would stop by to personally drag you along" Dad smiled looking round the room "this place is a mess"
"Yes dad, thanks for you input but I will not be going to the meeting" I smiled back before lying back down in bed
"Well you see Olivia, either you come to the meeting and put some effort into trying to get better or you move back to the farm with your mother and me" Dad stated
"What, you can't do that, i'm 21 you cannot force me to move back home" I argued back
"Well you see sweetheart if you remember correctly, I said you could come back to the compound if you continued to train and get better, you instead have locked yourself in your room, haven't been eating and stealing my very expensive whiskey, so yes, I can force you to move back home" Dad looked at me, I could see the sadness in his eyes "Liv your mom and I don't want to do this, but we don't want to loose you, which is the way its heading if you don't start looking after yourself and try to get better"
"I can't get better dad...I tried" I muttered, tears burning my eyes
"You can, and we will help, you are so strong Liv, you need to give yourself some credit" Dad stated softly walking over to wrapping his arms round me resting his chin on the top of my head "Go hop in the shower, get dressed and we'll go to the meeting together"
I stood slowly out of my dads arms and walked towards the bathroom, shutting the door behind me I turned on the shower, pulling my top over my head I looked glanced at the mirror, scars littered by back still slightly red and a bit raised, the most prominent one curving over my hip and on to my stomach, turning away I stepped into the falling water for the first time in days...
after washing drying and dressing myself I walked awkwardly towards one of the many meeting rooms within the compound, instead of my usual sweats and vest top i was wearing a purple flowing top, black trousers and small stiletto heals, my hair was tied back in a loose fish tail braid pulled over one shoulder,
"Don't worry kid" Dad smiled giving my shoulder a squeeze as he opened the door and led me inside, the animated chatter that filled the room died down as I stepped in, I looked up awkwardly, Nat, Steve, Thor, Loki, Peter, Wanda, Vision, Clint, Bruce, Rhodey, T'Challa all looked up at me, Bucky was stood in the back corner of the room, he nodded to the space at his side, I walked up slowly to stand next to him
"Good to see you out doll" Bucky smiled
"Didn't have much of a choice" I Shrugged as my dad loaded up the projector "Dad said if I didn't come he was dragging me back to the farm so here I am"
"Well, I'm glad you came, would be boring without you" Bucky smiled bumping my shoulder
"Ahem, can I get everyones attention" Dad looked up from the projector "So as you all know it has been relatively quiet on the mission front, there hasn't been much for the Avengers to do and hydra have gone dark, however one of the Hydra bases we have under surveillance has been showing some signed of activity which needs to be checked out, now this might be nothing, but it is better to be on the safe side"
"Who do you want to take this mission, if its just a recon to make sure everything is okay surely we don't all need to go?" Nat asked,
"Right, so we need cap, Falcon and Wanda on this" Dad stated looking towards me "the rest of you will be on stand by in case anything goes wrong, if it is Hydra we need to know why they are at this base in particular...its the one we found Liv in"
I looked towards my dad, why whole body went cold, I could vaguely hear Bucky calling my name beside me, I could hardly hear anything else he was saying, my heart was thundering in my chest, I couldn't breath, couldn't focus my eyes, my dad rushing towards me as I slipped down the wall, memories rushing to the front of my mind, looking up from the floor ice blue eyes met mine before the world went dark..
