Chapter 34 : WTF ? and shovels.

Steve blinked watching in dumb fascination as Natasha pulled away from Mary. Mary's face was bright red and every male in the room was staring mouths open and gaping. Bucky ended the silence with a soft laugh.

" Well that gets the blood pumping, come on." He put his arm around Natasha the other around Mary. He began to lead them towards the common room couch. However Darcy rushed forward and practically close lined Mary and kept walking dragging her towards the elevator.

" Come on Thor." She shouted , Thor still had a plate of pop tarts in his hand but followed them, Steve rubbed a hand over his face.

" Do you want to tell me what you were doing?" He asked Natasha who shrugged but under Steve's heavy gaze she sighed.

" James is attracted to her, he acts so different around her." She looked over at Bucky " I like it, so were going to keep her." Steve snorted

"She's not a puppy" Tony added, Tasha raised an eyebrow.

" Shutting up." he turned to concentrate on his eggs.

" If Mary is fine with being Bucky's second dame, then as long as she's well taken care of I'll help Darcy convince her mother not to kill the pair of you." Steve said rubbing the back of his neck. He'd have no control of Beth or Kitty and they wouldn't be afraid of Tasha they would strangle her if need be. He with just wanted Bucky and Mary to be happy with each other or separate. And if this was the way then Steve wasn't going to stop them.

" But if you hurt her either of you, I swear Buck I'll clean your clock. And Darcy will probably figure out a way to clean yours Tasha." Or run her over or taser her, he thought. Tasha nodded , bucky looked sheepish, Steve wondered how well Mary was taking Tasha's aggressive seduction.


In the elevator Mary was trying hard not to have an asthma attack.

" What the french toast was that?!" She gasped out her attack worsening.

" Breath." Darcy said rubbing her back gently, Mary tried her mind reeling.

" Why kiss me and not just knock my lights out.?" She gasped out. " It's not like I was going after Bucky, Well not intentionally." trying to keep her breathing even

" May hap you attract Lady Natasha , she fancy's both women and men. She is with the solider, may hap she see's the attraction between the two of you." He offered her a piece of hot fudge pop tart, she shook her head.

" Because lady Mary there is an attraction. may hap they wish you to join them." Mary started to cough, Darcy had never seen Mary so flustered.

" Do you think Natasha is pretty?" Darcy asked wanting to see Mary's reaction. Mary blinked she was not having this talk in an elevator.

" Shut up Darcy." she mumbled, Darcy just laughed and rubbed her back again.

" Mary it's not a bad thing to be attracted to Bucky and Natasha as a set." Darcy said, weird but not bad at all.

" Triads are quite normal where i am from." Thor said with a knowing nod. Darcy blinked, she wondered if there was a story behind that look. They got to Thor's floor where Darcy lead Mary to his horned foot chaise lounge covered in what Darcy figured was wolf fur. Thor got a flagon of hat looked to be ale

"She cant have alcohol, Thor." Darcy said, he shook his head.

" Tis honey cider Lady Darcy no alcohol." He handed the mug to Mary who shakily took a deep drink he sat next to her patting her shoulder. " Whatever you choose Lady Mary, your Lady sister and I will stand behind you." He said and Darcy nodded Thor really could be quite wise.

" I probably wont sound as eloquent but if you want to bang Bucky and Tasha or whatever you have with them. That's up to you, your my twin i'll stand behind you. If they break your heart I swear to Thor i'll find away to tase them both." Darcy said vehemently, Mary snuffled this was the nicest thing Darcy has ever said to her. She stood hugging her twin tight.

Mary had fallen asleep and Thor said it was alright for her to stay and get much needed rest. He had gone to go train and Darcy decided to check on Steve's end of this Natasha induced bedlam. When she stalked back into the common room, finding Steve still at the table. Buck and Tasha next to him quietly talking in what she guessed was Russian.

" Natasha" she said hands on hips " You want to tell me what the hell that was?" she asked vaguely aware widow could kill her with a flick of the wrist. Bucky sitting next to her looked a little sheepish however the widow shrugged and for some reason that irked Darcy.

" I meant no harm Darcy." Tasha said with another dainty shrug and a sip of coffee. Darcy didn't appreciate the indifference Tasha was showing and stomped over to the table slamming her hand down getting into the widows face. Again she ignored the warning bells in her head that told what she was doing was dangerous and stupid.

" You almost caused an asthma attack! listen to me and listen good I can see Bucky wants her. I don't are what kind of relationship goes on between the three of you. But I do care if you hurt my twin black widow or no I'll find a way to make you pay." She gestured between Tasha and Bucky " Do it right, don't screw with her head." Darcy pushed away from the table and started to stalk over to the elevator from the corner of her eye she noted Steve was following her.

" Did you give them your version of the shovel talk?" she asked as she hit the button

" Yes m'am." he ran a hand through her curls " I love when you talk like a gangsters wife, Darce." she snorted turning to hug Steve as he walked them into the elevator.

" I need some time away from the tower hon." He nodded then got this playful grin

" Want to take one of my bikes out for a spin doll face?" She eagerly nodded what wasn't more distressful than Steve on a classic Harley going ninety miles an hour?


Hi guys and dolls, I know its been a little while.I hoped you enjoyed this chapter I know I pulled away a little from Steve and Darcy to fill out her family more. But with a close family sometimes your lives collide and their stressful situations and happy ones become yours too. I like Darcy having a family like that and I think Steve understands but of course next time will be mostly Steve with Darcy a splash of Mary/ Tasha angst. Thanks for all the reviews they really do make me delierously happy , please continue to do so love you all so much - Dizzy
