Bucky's POV

Bucky watched ass Ally killed Zemo. She didn't even hesitate, she just did it. For him. To protect him. He had almost killed her. Again. She was lucky she was able to get through to Winter, because he wouldn't have stopped. Bucky didn't know what he would have done if Winter had killed her. Neither of them would have been able to live with it.

He watched as she backed away, almost in a Soldier like state. He hesitated, before putting a hand on her shoulder. She snapped her head in his direction, and her eyes has a white ring around the pupil where her usual bright green was. She just stared at him for a second, before blinking a few times, and her eyes had changed back to normal.

"Are you okay doll?" He asked, pulling her to him. She nodded and rested her head against his chest.

"We need to get out of here." Tony said. Bucky nodded and led Ally back to the jet. The ride back to the compound was quiet. Bucky was scared of what he had done, and he was worried at what Ally had done. He didn't want this for her. He didn't want her killing people, even if they were Hydra. Murdering someone changes you, no matter how bad they are. Aliens and robots are one thing, but this was a human. And she didn't hesitate.

When they got back to the compound, it was late, and everyone had gone to bed. Bucky led Ally into their room and ran a bath for her. She hadn't said a word since Siberia and it was starting to scare him. She sat down in the tub and he got in behind her after unhooking his arm, pulling her to his chest. She laid her head back and turned to look up at him. Her eyes were red and she was on the verge of tears.

"Doll…please talk to me." Bucky whispered. She closed her eyes and her lip trembled. "I don't know what's happening to me." She said softly, a tear escaping her. Bucky ran his thumb over cheek. "I know sweetheart. We will get it figured out okay? I promise. Just, don't shut me out okay? I can only handle one us being brooding at a time." Ally smiled and leaned up to kiss him softly. He deepened the kiss, running his hand down her neck, in between her breasts and down to her clit, circling it. She gasped and arched her back and Bucky smiled.

"Buck." Ally choked out. He really did love it when she said his name like that. "Yes beautiful?" He asked her in a low tone, moving his fingers down to her folds, pressing one in slowly. She whimpered and caught his mouth with hers, kissing him passionately. She lifted herself and turned in his lap, straddling him, reaching down for his already hard cock. She lined him up with her center and slid down, moaning at the contact.

Bucky's hand went to the back of her neck and kissed her softly. "You have to move Princess." He whispered at her lips. She rolled her hips and he growled into her ear, holding her at tight as he could. She kept a slow pace, placing small kisses on Bucky's shoulder where his arm goes. He shivered under her touch. Nobody had ever been this gentle with him. Ever. Ally showed him so much love and in so many different ways. She made him feel like a man. She made him feel like he was worth it.

A tear fell down his face as he pulled Ally in for another kiss. "I love you so much sweetheart." He whispered.

"I love you too Bucky."

Ally's POV

You woke up in a naked tangled mess with Bucky. You looked up at him and smiled. He was sleeping so peacefully, he deserved it. Zemo was gone, and you were going to go to Wakanda to see Shuri to have her start working on his brain. You carefully slipped out of his grasp and put on some shorts and a tank top and ventured down to the kitchen.

The last think you expected was to see Loki cooking breakfast. You froze when he turned around, making eye contact with you. "Well good morning pet. Are you hungry?" He practically purred at you. You sat down wearily, taking a plate of waffles and bacon he slid toward you, along with a coffee.

"I would have never pegged you for being the domestic kind Loki." You told him, bringing the hot mug up to your lips. Black, just like you liked it. Just like my soul. Ha.

"Well, I figure I can get in everyone's good graces by making breakfast, although, most of the people here would think I poisoned it." You snorted at that. He wasn't wrong. "So, tell me, Guardian, what kind of powers do you possess? I remember you trying to use them on me in New York, but they did not work. Thor has told me a little bit and I do have to say I am intrigued." He was smirking at you, making you roll your eyes. You rested your hand over his coffee mug, and froze the liquid inside. He flipped the mug over and the block of coffee slid out.

"That's very interesting pet. Anything else?"

"I can heal also, but my powers are growing, faster it seems." You told him, looking down. He lifted your chin with a long finger, forcing you to look at him. "Do not ever be afraid of your powers pet. I can sense that you are a force to be reckoned with my dear, and if you'd like, I would be honored to help you, to control them if you wish." You nodded up at him.

"That would be great Loki, thank you." You told him, taking a bit f your waffles, almost moaning at how good they were.

"This is really great Loki, thank you." You told him. He bowed to you and returned to the counter, making more waffles. Wanda and Pietro wandered a little while later with Sam, taking a seat at the table. You figured Steve was out on his run and Nat liked to sleep in. That just left Thor and Vision. Gym probably. You made a plate for Bucky and grabbed his favorite mug filled with coffee and headed back to your room.

Pushing the door closed with your foot, you walk over and set the mug and plate down on the nightstand. You brush a strand of hair out of Bucky's face and lean down to kiss him softly. He smiles into the kiss and whispers against your lips. "Mornin doll."

"Good morning. I brought you breakfast." You told him. He hummed against you. "I'd rather have something else." He flipped you so your back was against the bed, claiming your mouth with his. You moaned into the kiss, rolling your hips into his still naked form.

"You need to eat baby. And by the way, don't think I'm not still mad at you for coming yesterday, I wish you would just listen to me. I know what I am doing. I was trying to protect you." You told him. He rolled his eyes at you and sat up, sitting against the headboard.

"I know, and I'm sorry. I know you're doing what you think is best for me, but I want to protect you too. God you remind me of Steve so much when you just run off into a fight. It scares the hell out of me when you're out on a mission and I'm stuck here because I can't trust my brain." He told you.

"It's okay. I know you want to protect me. It's one of the things I love about you Bucky. Just please, trust me. I don't try to keep you here because I think you cant handle it. It's just dangerous" He nodded and grabbed the plate of food. You propped your head up on your hand and watched him. "These are amazing." He said, biting into the waffles. "Did you make them?" You shook your head. "No, Loki did."

Bucky paused the fork from going into his mouth and eyed the waffles. You laughed. "They're fine, I ate some and I'm not dead see?" You said, gesturing to yourself. He continued to eat and you smiled, seeing him happy made you so happy.

It was decided that Bucky, Steve, Vision, Wanda, Thor and Loki would go to Wakanda, while you and Tony went to talk to Dr. Strange. That left Pietro, Nat and Rhodey and Bruce to hold down the compound, and be there if the Asgardians needed anything. Bucky didn't want to go without you, but you promised him that you wouldn't be long and you would see him soon.

With help from Friday, you found the Sanctum Sanctorum pretty quickly. You were nervous to knock on the door, but you didn't need to, it opened to reveal Wong standing behind it. "He's been expecting you." Of course, he has.

Tony followed in behind you, and Wong led you upstairs to Dr. Strange's office. It was beautiful, books everywhere, chairs with tall backs, Ancient artifacts donning the shelves. Strange was sitting at desk when you entered the room. He looked up and smiled at you, gesturing for you and Tony to take a seat.

"I've been waiting for you." He said smiling. "So, I've heard. I'm Allison, this is Tony." You told him, jerking your thumb in Tony's direction.

He nodded, getting up and coming around to the front of the desk, leaning back against it. "I hear you need my help, and that it has to do with the Time Stone?" He asked. You weren't going to ask him how he knew you needed his help; he probably just knew. So, you told him everything.

Strange's reaction was probably the most normal one you had gotten when you told your tale. He nodded at the appropriate times, asked the right questions, like what kind of portal you had come through, and honestly, it sounded like Alpha was more like the Dr. Strange in your world, which was something you never considered.

"So, how long do we have until Thanos attacks?" Strange asked. "Well, in my timeline, in about two years, but I've changed a lot since I've been here, so I'm not sure if that could move it up or not." Strange nodded, getting up and going back to the other side of his desk. "Well, I can leave the Sanctum for that long, but I will give you this. It's a talisman, if you rub it three times, it will alert me and I can come to wherever you are. I am more than willing to help if what you say about Thanos is true." You nodded and stood, taking the talisman from him. "Thank you Dr. Strange, really."

"No, Thank You Allison, without you, we would be in a world of hurt."

Yeah, tell me about it.
