'What do you mean you're letting her go? That woman shot me, she tried to kill our babies! Please tell me you're at least turning her over to the police and she'll be locked up so she can never hurt my family?' You enquire angrily. A few weeks have passed, you are now 25 weeks pregnant and are more uncomfortable and emotional than ever. You feel your eyes stinging as tears start to form.

'Yes, I have NYPD coming to get her tomorrow but for today can you deal with her being here and trust that nobody here will let her near you?' Tony answers you. He hands you the tissue box as you let the tears fall. 'I get this is difficult for you but this way she won't be in the same building as you and it'll be safer once the kids are born. Why don't go for a swim? Calm you down a bit?' He says with a smile. You walk away angrily and head to your bedroom to get changed for the pool.

'Whoa doll what's happened?' Bucky has just got out the shower when you got upstairs. 'Why are you crying? What did Tony say to you? If he upset you I'll kill him.' You sit down on the bed and look at the floor. Bucky joins you and takes your hand, stroking your thumb with his.

'No, it's ok. He just told me he's handing Sharon over to the police tomorrow and it brought back memories, that's all. I'm going for a swim to take my mind off things, wanna join me?' You squeeze his hand and smile at him before standing up and pulling out a swimsuit to put on. 'Might need your help anyway, I feel like a whale. I will probably need help getting in and out the pool.' You say, laughing and place a hand on your growing stomach. Bucky comes over and puts a hand over yours smiling.

'Well, if my baby mama needs me, it's against my hero nature to not help. Need help getting those pants off?' He asks, moving behind you to wrap his arms around you and strokes your stomach gently. You laugh and rest your head back onto his shoulder feeling his fingers trace letters on your stomach. 'Hey Mia? If I haven't told you this lately, you look beautiful. I still can't believe you're mine, let alone that you're carrying my children and you want to marry me.'

You smile and turn around to wrap your arms round his neck. 'Not bad for a hundred year old huh? Come on, lets get ready. I wanna go swim. It's 85 degrees out there, this whale needs to get cooler than this or she's gonna turn into an oven!' You giggle and kiss Bucky quickly before pulling away and pulling your swimsuit on with a maxi dress over it. 'Jeez, I have 15 weeks left! How much bigger am I going to get? Oh well, I'm creating life, I don't mind looking like I'm gonna enslave Princess Leia if it means we're gonna have our babies soon.' You say with a smile. Bucky looks confused. 'It's a Star Wars reference James. We'll watch the movies next week if you like? Ok then, you ready? Let's go swim!' You grab his hand and you both head down to the pool. Nat and are already down there, Nat looks up at you as you walk past and wolf whistles.

'Wow baby mama coming through! Looking good Mia!' She laughs as you waddle past and put your towel down on a sun lounger and take your dress off. 'You look great honestly girl.' She stands up and walks over to you to put a hand on your growing bump. 'How's little Natasha and Roma doing in there? Auntie Nat hopes you're being kind to your Mama, I am a trained spy, I will find out if you aren't.' You both giggle and you point to the pool.

'What's the water like? I'm so warm and need to swim.' Nat nods that its ok. 'Great! James, come help me please?' You walk over to the pool and Bucky grabs your hand to help you walk down the steps. You squeal a little as the water is cold on your skin which makes Bucky laugh and you give him the death stare. 'Jerk! Just help me in and swim with me. Thank you, James, I'm sorry.'

'It's ok doll, we're almost in.' You get to the end of the steps and dive in to get your shoulders under and Bucky does the same. You swim around for a bit and hold onto him for stability while you catch your breath again. 'You ok doll? Your breathing has never been this bad.' He holds you close and looks at you intently. You nod and break away from him to start doing laps. You do a few before you get out of breath and stop in the middle of the pool, waving Bucky over to you. 'Coming sweetheart!' He swims over to you and grabs you to bring you back to the front of the pool. Steve gets up and makes a move for the pool to help out.

'You ok Mia?' He says as he gets in the pool with you both. 'You need help getting out the pool?' You are breathing raggedly, and your eyes flutter closed. 'Oh my God, come on Buck, let's get her to Bruce.' He picks you up and Nat runs to make sure Bruce is in the lab. Steve runs in with you in his arms, Bucky is following with your stuff.

'Oh God what happened? Put her on the bed.' Bruce checks you over and checks your airways. He puts you on your left side and tries to clear out the water you swallowed. 'Come on Mia, work with me here! Bucky come here. I need you to rub her back firmly with your metal arm. We need your strength now; don't worry you won't hurt her.' Bucky does as he's told, and you cough up some pool water. Bruce puts you on your back again and you start to regain consciousness.

'What? What happened? Ow my throat.' You grab Buckys hand and feel the tears sting your eyes as they start to form, and you see him in tears as well. 'Why am I in the lab?'

'You stopped breathing properly and you passed out in the middle of the pool. Steve had to carry you here and we got the pool water out your lungs. What happened Mia? You're usually fine in the pool, especially doing laps.' Nat answers you as she walks over to hold the hand Bucky isn't holding.

'I… I don't know, I just felt really dizzy all of a sudden and I couldn't breathe properly, then I remember James coming to hold onto me and then nothing until here. My head is still a little fuzzy. The babies! Are they ok?' You sit up a little and instantly get dizzy again so have to lie back down.

'Whoa Mia, relax. The babies are fine, we're here for you. Nat? Can you go and grab something sweet for Mia please? Thanks.' Nat runs out he room towards the kitchen. 'Ok, now what have you had to eat today? You need sugar, you should also eat before swimming even when it's just you, that's even more important when you're pregnant. You're a swimmer, you should know that! Its ok, just lie back and relax, we'll get you some food and I'll ask Bucky to take you to your bedroom for some rest.' You nod and start to cry, Bucky squeezes your hand tighter and lifts it to his lips to kiss it.
