Two weeks Later-
"Ma'am, Sargeant Barnes, Captain Rogers is on the line." Friday said.
"Deny." Bucky said.
"Buck maybe…" I started and he gave me a look. "Or not."
"You're acting like a spoiled brat." Aiden said sipping on his coffee.
"Aiden." I said warning him to ease up.
"Have you forgiven him?" Bucky asked Aiden. That made him chuckle.
"I'm not going to get in the middle of your lover's quarrel." Aiden said. "Though if he ever insulted Nora again that's another story."
"Bucky, you need to talk to him. It's killing you to not see him. Don't think we haven't noticed how you haven't been sleeping." I said.
"Or how you're more irritable than Nora without coffee." Aiden said.
"I resent that but he does have a point. If you want to talk to him go ahead." I said.
"Someone does have to keep that punk out of trouble." Bucky said.
"Last time we left him alone he crashed a plane into the Atlantic." I said agreeing with him.
"The three of us need to talk." Bucky said.
"You do, he's not the only one that's been avoiding Spangles." Aiden said giving me a look. "The three of you should have dinner. Sit down and put all the cards on the table."
"You want us to go on a date?" I asked.
"Of course not think of it as a business meeting." Aiden said.
"Business?" I asked.
"Well technically mediation about how you're going to share custody of him." Aiden said looking at Bucky.
"Custody?" Bucky asked. "When did I become a child of divorce?"
"You're not. But he's right we do need to figure out how this is going to work out." I said.
"Friday call Steve please." I said.
"Dialing Captain rogers, connecting on your personal mobile." Friday said. I took my phone out and put it on speaker.
"Rogers." Steve answered.
"Steve it's Nora." I said, damn I could already feel the awkwardness seeping in.
"Nora, hi is everything okay, Is Bucky Okay?" He asked really fast.
"I'm fine. Bucky's fine listen I was wondering if you'd like to join us for dinner." I asked.
"Us?" Steve asked.
"Me and Bucky." I said.
"Uh yeah, that'd be great." Steve said.
"Does seven here at the house work for you?" I asked.
"Tha-That's perfect I'll see you then." He said sounding very excited.
"Bye." I said hanging up. "I need to clean the house."
"I guess I need to be out by seven." Aiden said.
"Want me to drop you off anywhere?" I asked.
"No I'm going to get a sitter and drag Sam out for some drinks." Aiden said.
"Sounds fun, you should take him to a strip club he hasn't had any action in over a year." I said picking up the dishes from the table. "You craving anything?"
"Uh, roast?" Bucky said looking nervous about his answer.
"Roast it is." I said.
A Few Hours Later-
"Aiden!" I called out.
"What?" he asked.
"I don't know what to wear." I said.
"It's dinner in the kitchen down stairs, pants, top, shoes optional. What's so hard about that?" Aiden said. I pulled him into the room and closed the door.
"It's dinner with my ex." I said giving him a look.
"Is that supposed to mean something?" He said and I punched him in the arm. "Just messing with you, what do you got?"
"All this but I need to look amazing without looking…" I started.
"Like you're trying to hard. It's a dinner, they're probably going to go with slacks and a dress shirt so you should go with a dress that's given. Show off the assets but tastefully keep him distracted during the negotiation. Wear this with these." He said pulling out a black v-neck dress and my black louboutins.
.
"You're a life saver also I need you to help dress me." Aiden said.
"What are we going for?" I asked following him to his room.
"Getting laid." Aiden said.
"Gotcha." I said going through his closet. "Tailored slacks. White button up and sports coat. Successful Wall Street guy or if you're at a club tall, dark, handsome, and mysterious you'd kill to fuck in the walk in closet so you can brag to your friends."
"Perfect." He said.
"What did I walk into?" Bucky said from the doorway holding Wren.
"Picking out outfits." I said. "How's my little man?" I said taking Wren.
"Ahaha." Wren giggled.
"You sure you don't want me to drop him off at Sam's?" Aiden asked.
"No, I feel like I hardly spend any time with him with work and training. I'll be fine besides he should fall asleep pretty soon." I said as Wren started yawning.
"He is a very heavy sleeper." Bucky said remembering how Wren always slept through him screaming in the middle of the night.
"It'll be fine but we should get dressed." I said.
"I'll take him, I only need five minutes." Aiden said. "Guess who's going to get laid tonight? I am!"
Wren giggled at that. My kid was going to need therapy later on in life.
I went back to my room and got dressed. I looked in the mirror and my hair was sticking out unevenly. I grabbed my curling wand started taming my hair a bit. Dad teased me about having a mom cut but I made it work. I slipped on my arc reactor necklace and walked out of my room.
"Wow." Bucky said. "You look beautiful."
"Thank you, you're looking pretty handsome yourself." I said giving him a smile even though I was really freaking the hell out.
'Pull it together Nora you've faced life or death situations and none of them wore stars and stripes.' Aya said.
'This is for Bucky, he needs it. I can get through this.'
'Then get to it."
"Nora?" Bucky said.
"Uh Sorry, Aya's wishing us luck." I said. "Need to take the roast out and put the rolls in."
"Hey." Bucky said taking my hand. "Thank you, for doing this."
"Anything for you." I said kissing his cheek. I teleported downstairs and went straight to the kitchen. I pulled the roast out and let it set before sticking the rolls in.
"All right, I'm set to go." Aiden said putting Wren in his high chair.
"Looking good, those girls won't know what hit them." I said.
"Oh they'll know." Aiden said. "If you need me, I'll have my phone on me." Aiden said.
"I know." I said. "And here." I said handing him the keys to the Audi.
"You're lending me your car?" Aiden said.
"The engine needs to run and it'll help complete the outfit. Happy hunting." I said.
"Thank you. Bye bugger." He said kissing Wren. "Enjoy your meal." He said to Bucky on his way out.
"He's in a good mood. No snide comments." Bucky said.
"Give him time." I said. "You mind setting the table?"
"Yes ma'am." Bucky said grabbing the plates and walking to the table.
"Okay sweetheart time for dinner." I said waving the bottle so Wren could see it.
"Ah!" He cheered.
"Up, Up and away!" I said picking him up. I took him into my arms and started feeding him. Wren swallowed his milk down like I hadn't fed him in days. Slowly he started getting sleepy a started closing his eyes. He was done with his bottle so I took a burp cloth and put it on my shoulder before moving Wren and gently patting his back.
"Burp." Wren let out some air.
"That was a big one." I laughed.
"I think he's out." Bucky said.
"Ma'am, Sargeant Barnes, Captain Rogers is at the door." Friday said.
"I'll let him in." Bucky said.
"I'm going to go put him down." I said.
"All right. Night little man." Bucky said kissing his head before going to open the door.
"Let's get you to bed." I said teleporting up to the nursery. "There we go sweetie. All nice and comfy. Mommy and Bucky are going to be downstairs talking to Steve. Give a shout if you need us or if things get awkward. Friday Monitor please."
"Yes boss." Friday answered and I teleported downstairs.
"Nora." Steve said.
"Hi, how was the drive?" I asked.
"It was good, these are for you." He said handing me a bouquet of lilies.
"Thank you they're lovely." I said taking them. "I'm going to put these in a vase."
"Thirsty? We have water, wine, beer, juice…" Bucky started.
"I'll have what you're having." Steve told bucky.
"Beer it is, Doll?" Bucky asked.
"I'll just have water, I can't drink." I said.
"Right, coming right up." Bucky said leaving me and Steve alone in the dining room.
"Thank you for having me over." Steve said.
"Don't mention it." I said. Seriously dude don't mention it, I'm barely keeping it together.
"Nora I know…" Steve started but his phone rang. "Uh, I have to take this."
"Go ahead." I said as he walked to the living room.
"Ma'am you have a call from Miss Romanoff." Friday said.
"I'll take it." I said taking my phone and going into the study.
"Hey Nat." I greeted.
"That bitch she can't do this!" I heard someone shriek in the background.
"Anything you forgot to mention last week?" Natasha asked.
"Oh, she finally got it? Damn those guys work fast." I said.
"What exactly are you doing?" Natasha asked.
"I'm suing her for libel and emotional damages. Considering the complications during the delivery this is going to be very cut and dry, sorry for unleashing the banshee just wasn't sure exactly when this was going to happen." I said.
"It's fine. Keep me updated." Natasha said.
"Thanks, have to go." I said walking out of the study and into the dining room.
"You're suing Sharon?" Steve said.
"That's none of your business but yes." I said.
"Why?" Bucky asked.
"She made my life hell for months and thanks to her stupid trial I almost lost my job and could have ended my career. Not only that the stress she put me under sent my blood pressure through the roof, if it weren't for Aya controlling it I could have died and stayed dead or worse my son so that's why I'm suing her. Now who's hungry?" I said.
"Nora," Steve started.
"Watch what you're about to say." Bucky said giving him a stern look.
"Like I said before, it's none of your business. I'll bring the food out." I said going into the kitchen. I used my powers and took everything to the table. "Beef roast with mashed potatoes and gravy and a salad. Leave room for dessert."
"I'll carve." Bucky said quickly getting the knife away from me.
"Please." Steve said.
We ate for a bit in silence until finally Steve brought up the giant elephant in the room.
"I have to apologize. I know I've made a mess of things and it'll be hard but I want to make things right. I want the three of us to be together again." Steve started and both of them looked at me.
"I'm going to stop you right there. You've royally screwed the pooch repeatedly…" I started.
"Nora I am so sorry." Steve said.
"I know you are but that doesn't change anything. You hurt me Steve, you insulted me and you even went as low as to say I would be petty enough to cause the death of an innocent child." I said.
"I know." he said tearing up.
"No you don't." I said making my eyes glow and putting my training to some use. I showed him everything he did but through my eyes.
"Nora." Bucky said.
"Relax, it's not hurting him, I'm just showing him everything he did." I said. When it was over Steve was crying and panting.
"That's what you did and that's why you and I are done." I said.
"Nora please I love you." Steve said.
"If you really did love me you wouldn't have hurt me like that or tossed me to the side for something you once said didn't matter to you but that's not why we're here. We're here for Bucky." I said. "He needs us."
"No matter what happens I'm not taking sides between you two. I love you both and I don't want to lose either of you." Bucky said.
"We love you too Buck." Steve said taking his hand.
"I'm not going to make you pick sides sweetie. I'm with you no matter what." I said giving him a reassuring smile.
"I love you doll." Bucky said.
"Love you too. Always." I said. "That being said we need to figure out how this is going to work."
"I want us to be together again, the three of us." Steve said.
"I don't. I think with time we can maybe be friends again but romantically we're done." I said watching as his eyes filled with tears up as I said that.
"I want to be with both of you and I want to be there for Wren as well." Bucky said making me smile when he said that. "He comes first."
"What do you want to do Buck?" Steve asked.
"Before anything, you have to end things with Peggy's niece. She's gone or no deal." Bucky said.
"It's over between us." Steve said.
"Does she know that? Because it didn't seem like it last time I was at the compound." I said remembering how she wanted to make a baby even though she was so drunk she didn't remember she couldn't anymore.
"I've tried but…" Steve started.
"No buts. She's gone or no deal." Bucky started.
"I just can't kick her to the streets. It's not right, she was carrying our son." Steve said.
"We're not saying kick her to the streets." I said.
"We're saying make it clear that the two of you are over. If we're going to do this we're doing it right." Bucky said.
"Okay, I'll sit her down and make it clear it's over." Steve said.
"As for the rest of it, we should split time evenly. You know three days here and three days at the compound." I said.
"What about the seventh day?" Bucky asked.
"You rest, take some personal time. Go have a guys day with Sam and Aiden, pick up a hobby, whatever you want." I said.
"It might be hard with missions to stick to a set schedule." Steve said.
"We can rearrange or switch days." I said.
"Anyone want to hear what I want?" Bucky asked.
"Of course." We said at the same time.
"I say we alternate days. One week Nora gets Monday, Wednesday and Friday while Steve gets Tuesday and Thursday and you switch each week." Bucky said. "That way no one gets too lonely. Saturday the three of us do something."
"I have Wren." I said.
"Bring him with us, family day." Bucky said.
"No." I said.
"Nora." Bucky said.
"No Bucky, my job is to protect my son. I can handle getting my heart ripped out by him but he does that to Wren I'll rip his head off." I said not realizing how my eyes started glowing or how my voice started getting distorted.
"Doll calm down. You're his mom you decide. If this is what you want we'll accept it." Bucky said.
"Nora I am so sorry I broke your trust like this and I would never hurt your son. I know it's not going to be easy but I want a chance to gain it back and I hope that maybe you'll give me the chance to get to know Wren too." Steve said.
"We'll see." I said giving him a glare.
"Does that arrangement work for you two?" Bucky asked. I got up and walked over to him.
"If it's what you want we'll make it work." I said kissing him.
"Yeah, we'll make it work." Steve said.
"Who wants cake?" I asked. "I made your favorite."
"Chocolate?" Bucky asked.
"Yup." I said giving him a quick peck on the lips before going to the kitchen.
Third Person's POV-
Steve watched his soulmates sweet interaction and watched them longingly wishing he could be closer. He had screwed up, but seeing how much it had truly affected Nora was a deeper hit.
"It's not polite to stare punk." Bucky said.
"Sorry." Steve said. "I just… I miss her, the way things used to be."
"Yeah, Me too but it is what it is and you only have yourself to blame. What the hell were you thinking Steve?" Bucky said still wondering how things could have gotten so bad between both his soulmates.
"More like I wasn't thinking." Steve said.
Nora's POV-
"One triple chocolate cake." I said putting it down and handing everyone plates.
"If it wasn't for my super soldier metabolism I think I would have gained weight by now." Bucky said.
"Which is why we have a gym in the basement." I said.
"Or you could always come upstate and join us for training." Steve suggested and I just gave him a glare.
"Maybe." Bucky said. "Don't think Sam is over me wrecking his car."
"He's not." I said.
"Ma'am, the baby is awake." Friday said.
"Duty calls." I said teleporting upstairs. "How's mommy's little man doing?"
"WAH!" He cried.
"Come on, it's okay." I said picking him up. "Oh someone needs a diapee change." I said walking over to the changing table.
"Dinner's going good." I said pulling another diaper out. "We're sharing Bucky but don't worry he'll still be around all the time. Now that you're all cleaned up, you need to get back to sleepy town or else there'll be hell to pay tomorrow. Isn't that right?"
"Hehe." Wren giggled.
"Come here you, Hey Wren, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better remember to let her into your heart then you can start to make it better.
Hey Wren, don't be afraid you were made to go out and get her the minute you let her under your skin then you begin to make it better.
And anytime you feel the pain, hey wren refrain don't carry the world upon your shoulders for well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool by making this world a little colder.
Hey Wren don't let me down you have found her now go and get her remember to let her into your heart then you can start to make it better.
So let it out and let it in, hey Wren, begin you're waiting for someone to perform with and you don't know that it's just you hey wren you'll do the movement you need is on your shoulder.
Hey Wren don't make it bad take a sad song and make it better remember to let her under your skin then you'll begin to make it better better better better better better oh
Na na na na na na na, Hey Wren…" I sang and he was out. "Works everytime." I walked over to the crib and put him down. I walked out of the room and saw Bucky and Steve standing in the hallway.
"Sorry I just wanted to say good night before I headed out." Steve said.
"Oh, Why don't a pack you some food to go and I make a cake for everyone so if you could take it back with you?" I started.
"Already taken care of doll." Bucky said.
"Thanks again for having me." Steve said.
"Thanks for coming." I said. There was a pretty awkward silence. "We'll walk you to the door."
"Yeah." Bucky said and we followed him downstairs. I should have just teleported us down.
"Well this is it." Steve said.
"Drive safe." I said. "I'll give you two a minute." I walked towards the dining room and started cleaning up.
I quickly took all the dishes to the kitchen and started rinsing out the dishes before loading the dishwasher.
"Let me help you with that." Bucky said.
"Whoa." I said jumping a bit.
"Sorry, should have made noise." Bucky said walking over.
"More like I should have been paying more attention to my surroundings." I said.
"You rinse I'll load." Bucky said.
"Thanks." I said.
"He was really happy to be here." Bucky said.
"I noticed, late like half the roast on his own. Probably been a while since he's had a home cooked meal." I said.
"I think it was more about the company than anything." Bucky said.
"Yeah could be that." I said even though I seriously doubted it.
"I know this was hard for you, but I really appreciate you doing this." Bucky said.
"Hey, it was worth it. Do you feel better?" I asked.
"Yeah, I feel like we made progress." Bucky said.
"Then that's all the thanks I need." I said handing him the last dish.
"I love you." Bucky said.
"I love you too." I said giving him a short kiss on the cheek. As I pulled away Bucky put an arm on my waist and pulled me flush against me before pulling me into a passionate kiss.
I could feel his arms moving up and down my back as I moved my hand up his chest and to his neck hanging on to him. I felt his hands move down my butt making me moan. Bucky gently squeezed my butt making me gasp. He moved his arms lower and pulled me up. I put my legs around him and threaded my hand through his hair.

"Damn baby doll." He panted into my neck. "You have no idea how much I wanted to do this all night."
"Just all night?" I said with a smirk as he put me down on the kitchen counter.
"When you bent over to check on the roast and I got a peak at these." He said snapping the waistband of my lace panties. "God I got hard just thinking about it."
"What did you think about?" I asked rocking my hips over his clothed hard length.
"I thought about this. I thought about holding you like this, about bending you over this counter and having my way with you." He said as he started kissing up and down my neck.
"Ah Bucky." I moaned.
"I thought about the sounds you'd make." He said kissing and nipping my collar bone. "About the sounds I'd get you to make."
"I want you." I moaned. It had been almost a year since the last time I was with anyone and I couldn't lie and say I hadn't thought about being with Bucky I just didn't want to pressure him. Just hearing him say these things was making me wet.
.
"How much baby, how much do you want me?" He said kissing down to my breasts.
"So much baby so damn much ah! Bucky!" I shouted as he slipped his metal hand under my dress and bra to gently squeeze my breasts.
"So do I baby so do I." He said reaching under my dress and ripping off my panties.
I reached down and unbuttoned his pants and pushed them down his thighs. Bucky moved his hand down and lined himself up to my entrance before pushing all the way in.
"Bucky!" I moaned at how good it felt.
"Fuck doll, you're so tight." He said as he started rocking his hips.
"Sorry, It's been Ah! Awhile." I gasped. Bucky didn't take this slow he was just as wound up as I was.
. /fe81c668b180492e5fa10a208a7339b9/tumblr_mqvlfl3Cfz1som7eho1_
"Don't apologize." He said kissing me. "You feel so fucking good."
"Fuck me." I groaned as he hit that one spot that made my toes curl. I ended up pressing my heels to his but cheek making him thrust even harder pressing up to my cervix. "AH!"
"Yes." He moaned leaning forward and making me lie against the counter. I gently tugged on his luscious chestnut locks spurring him on. Neither of us wanted to take this slow so we didn't. He fucked me so good.
"Fuck doll." He said pulling my leg up higher.
"Bucky." I moaned.
"You're so good baby squeezing me do good. You're going to come aren't you?" He said.
"Yes please don't stop." I begged.
"I'm not, I'm right there with you baby. You going to milk me so good aren't you?" He said as he started going slower.
"Bucky." I whined.
"Don't worry baby doll the night is far from over," He said speeding up again.
"Yes, yes ,ye-Ah!" I shouted as I came.
"Nora, Fuck Nora!" Bucky yelled as his spurt of cum shoot out inside of me. Good thing I went on the shot.
"Shit baby that felt so good." Bucky said holding me.
"I missed this." I said.
"I did too. Tired?" He asked.
"Just need a minute." I panted.
"Okay, because the night isn't even close to being over." He said with a smirk.
"Promise?" I asked.
"Oh yeah. When you're ready I'm going to go check everything is locked up. And while I'm doing that I want you to go upstairs and wait for me on my bed. Wearing nothing but these." He said looking at my shoes.
"You sure? Cuz I have a lot of other panties you could rip?" I said with a smirk.
"Minx." He said kissing me. "Maybe another night, right now I just want to explore you and make you mine in everyway possible."
"Yes sir." I said kissing him.
"Save that for when I get upstairs." He said pulling up his pants and moving away.
Fuck, I wasn't going to be able to walk straight tomorrow.
Hey everyone quick question I was thinking of having the next chapter pick up exactly where this one leaves off as a sort of thank you for those who are into this kind of thing. Let me know what you think. If you guys don't think it's a good idea I'll just do a time skip to after this night. Thanks again.
