By the way, this is an au story, so Tony still has his house in Malibu. :)
Olivia's POV
"Okay Olivia, you can let go now." I peek open my eyes to see that we were safely on the ground. I sigh in relief as I unwrap my arms from around Tony's waist.
"Whoa," I lean over as I squeeze my eyes shut for the dizziness to fade. "Next time remind me when you want to whisk me away to fly again." I groan, looking up to see him stepping out of his suit.
"Will do." He chuckles and I stand up fully as I look around the room. "Where are we?" I ask, looking around to see a bunch of technical stuff.
"Currently we're in the basement of my humble abode." He answers back as he fiddles with some stuff on a table.
"In Malibu?" I question. "Yep, but I thought I would get you out of New York for a day or two to let you clear your head at all this mess." Tony sighs and I just give him a small smile.
"Thank you Tony for getting me out of there. Didn't think seeing him again was exactly the right time." I sigh, running a hand through my hair which I'm sure is a mess right now.
"No problem Olivia and I agree with you right there." He replies. "Okay how about we order a pizza and watch tv or movies?" Tony suggests and I give him a guilty smile.
"I just want to go out to, like you said, to clear my head, but when I get back we can eat pizza and watch tv." I smile and he gives me a skeptic look. "Are you sure? Do you want me to come with you?" He asks and I shake my head.
"It's okay Tony, but I would just like to go out by myself." I say, my eyes casting downwards as I start to think about the events that just happened awhile ago. "Okay, come on then." He says, giving me a small smile.
I follow him up to the first floor and he gently hugs me as we stand by the doors. "I'm sorry Olivia." He sighs and I hug him back. "I'm sorry that you had to come back to all this." He chuckles.
"It's alright Tony. I'm just glad that I'm back." I say as we pull back. "Yeah, me too and I hope for you to stay with us, so take your time, but please come back." He chuckles as he opens the door for me.
"I will Tony, don't worry. I won't be gone for long." I smile and he nods. I give him a wave and I start to walk away.
I walk until I see a small boulder on the side of a road that has no cars running along, so I stop and I sit down on it. I put my head in my hands as tears started to brim at my eyes. I wipe them away and I just sit there.
I look up to see the sun beginning to set, so I watch with a heavy heart as the sky fades into darkness. I just sit there as I gaze at the stars that littered the night sky.
It's been awhile since I seen these beauties.
The last time I went star-gazing with was of course no other then Bucky. Everything that I did was with that man and I'm happy it was like that.
I just wish he were here with me now, but I know that's just false hope. I close my eyes and I breathe out in annoyance.
Everything right now is my fault. If I didn't get shot by that shithead, Ajax, I wouldn't be in this mess. I would have had returned back to Bucky and things would have been happy, but no I didn't.
I wipe my teary eyes as I exhale a long breath of air that I didn't realize I was holding in. I look once more up to the stars before standing up and walking back to Tony's house.
I slowly walk down the road, but the weird thing is, is that I swear I can see a figure walking on the same side that I'm on.
"Tony?" I call, but the figure keeps walking towards me. I decide to go across the street so that I'm walking on the other side, but the figure also goes on the other side with me.
I widen my eyes and I turn around and begin to walk the other direction, hoping with all my might it's just Tony messing around with me.
I look back to see the figure still walking, but the figure was even closer. I widen my eyes and without thinking I begin to run.
I try to focus on where I'm running and not the footsteps that I can hear that keep getting louder and louder behind me.
I remember that I have powers so right as I'm about to use them, I feel hands go in contact with my skin.
I let out a scream, but I'm shut up as the person twirls me around, showing me who it was.
"Clint you ass!" I hit his chest and he brings me into him for a hug. "I was worried Olivia." He sighs and I just grumble as I hug him back.
"Don't be Clint. Does Tony know that you're here?" I ask, still kind of shaken up.
Clint pulls back and nods. "Yeah and I'm sorry that I scared you." He chuckles and I just shake my head and slap his chest.
"You did, why didn't you just call out to me?" I ask as we start to walk back. "I have no idea to be honest." He shrugs and I just shake my head.
"Why are you here anyways? Didn't you have a mission or something, not that I don't want you here of course." Clint chuckles in reply and shrugs.
"I just thought I would hang out with a friend I thought died five years ago was all." He says and I smile as I wrap my arms around him as we walk.
"I missed you too Clint." I say truthfully. He wraps his arms around me back and we're like this until we get to the porch of Tony's house.
"Olivia I'm sorry that you had to see them togethe-" "It's alright Clint," I smile, but it's a little forced. "To be fair, you all thought I died, so it makes sense why he's with her."
Clint pulls me into his arms again and I couldn't help but hug him back. "I promise you, things will get better, but it'll take some time." Clint says softly causing me to grip his shoulders in reply.
"She's not here!" I look back at the house in confusion as Tony yelled this. I widen my eyes as I hear a loud crash. "Then where is she Tony?" I break away from Clint's arms and go into the house as I hear another voice.
"Olivia stop!" I ignore Clint and go around the corner to come across Bucky trying to come inside, but Tony was blocking him with the door.
"Tony?" I step back in confusion and Tony looks up to me. "Olivia?" My eyes flicker over to the door that Bucky was standing on the other side.
"Tony it's okay." I hesitantly say. "Are you sure?" He asks and I let out a shaky breath before nodding. I think I'm sure.
Tony steps away from the door and Bucky falls through, his glossy blue eyes focusing on me like I'm a ghost or something.
I notice he has a bruised eye, but I don't focus on it too much as Tony starts to talk to him.
"If you do anything to hurt-" "Tony." I sigh. He gives Bucky a glare, but he isn't even paying attention since all he could do is to stare at is me.
I look up to Tony and he gives me a small nod. He walks past me, but not before giving me a hug.
"Be careful." He mutters and I just give him a confused look. "It's Bucky." I reply back. "Just please?" Tony pushes and I roll my eyes before nodding.
"We're just going to let him-" Tony pushes Clint into the other room. I keep my eyes towards their direction as I hear a door click. I close my eyes and rub my hands over my face as I turn towards Bucky.
My eyes open wide as I feel his hands gently remove my hands from my face. I look in front of me so that I can avoid is piercing blue eyes, but it's hard to do when it's him.
My eyes flicker up and their caught by his eyes, which are teary.
I look down to our hands. His metal one was a little cold, but I can feel mine warming his up just to my skin temperature.
I shake my head as I realize that we're probably just going to be staring at each other.
So without thinking about the events that occurred this afternoon, I wrap my arms around his shoulders. He instantly lifts me up so that my legs were also wrapped around him.
I had buried by face in the crook of his neck, allowing me to smell the familiar scent of his that I had missed so much.
I widen my eyes as I feel us drop, but he just sat down on the couch.
I pull back so that I'm looking directly at his face and he has tears running down his face, causing me to wipe them away.
"Shh," I wipe away his hair that was in his face and he smiles as he grabs my hands and places them with his.
"Will you ever forgive me?" He whispers hoarsely and I look up to his eyes which are gleaming.
I smile and press my forehead against his. "I wouldn't be here if I didn't Bucky." I whisper back and he smiles in relief.
"I-I missed you Olivia." He breathes out. "I missed you too Bucky."
