A/N: Okay so I'm starting school tomorrow which means that writing these is going to become a pain in my arse. I'm also getting my brother to take my laptop away till nine so that I do revise, so I'm so sorry but please don't hate me if I end up taking two days to post a chapter. Just know I'll try my hardest to write the chapter in a day but I try and go to bed at midnight so that leaves me four hours of writing time and any writers out there know how hard it is to write in a short amount of time and think that it's okay. Do you know what I mean by that? Sorry, I'm rambling, I just feel so bad. Here's a happy thought or you all though: soon it'll be my six week holidays and that's enough time for me to write a sequel and maybe more!

This story is dedicated to Savarra who made me realise my humongous mistake of giving this fanfiction the wrong rating. Applause to her!

Thank you so much to zeeweeble, jezebel detrazie, sco, vilevillian, fallynashe, castiel angel heart, musangel88, kima wolfwood, biancatsparrow101 and ikhandozatman for your uplifting comments, they warmed my heart and I hope that someone warmed your heart up today because you deserve it!

CHAPTER NINETEEN

"To hurt is as human as to breathe."

― J.K. Rowling

Summer was laying down with her body cuddled against Bucky, the both of them naked and asleep. Their breaths came out in steady and slow beats.

Suddenly the lights of her bedroom lit up, the contrast from the darkness causing both Bucky and Summer to wake up and instantly wince at the blinding light. "I'm sorry to wake you up so early Miss Scotts but Tony has requested your presence. It's important." JARVIS called out, his voice louder than usual as though it was an alarm.

Bucky groaned, though his mind was hazy he did know that this meant Summer would be leaving him so he tightened his arms around her body. Summer chuckled at his movements and she gently slapped his chest, "go back to sleep baby, you'll see me when you wake up." She kissed underneath his chin and he whined, eyes remaining closed while Summer was beginning to get use to the bright lights.

"No way," he muttered, opening his eyes and sitting up, "we've spent over 70 years apart and I don't ever want to be parted from you again." He stood up from the bed, leaving Summer her dignity and allowing her to take the sheet to cover her body while he pranced around naked, going to grab a spare pair of clothes which he'd moved into her room earlier on.

She got up off the bed, dragging the sheet with her. Underneath the cover she quickly put on her underwear - a pair of lacy green knickers and a matching bra. She turned around and saw Bucky staring at awe at her, the pants which he'd put on left unzipped and unbuttoned as he'd stopped to look at his beautiful girlfriend half naked. "Like what you see?" She quipped with a happy laugh.

He returned with a smile and moved around the bed until he was stood behind her, his arms wrapping around her waist. He kissed the back of her neck, inhaling the scent of apples as well as the sweat she'd acquired from last nights antics. "Not as much as I like your pancakes." He muttered into the skin of her neck, repeatedly kissing on it.

"Oh I see how it is." Summer chuckled before pushing Bucky's body away from hers and beginning to get dressed. Tony had apparently taken some of her clothes from her apartment so she was happy to see all her comfort clothes were here. She put on the biggest shirt she owned which had the picture of a unicorn farting on it as well as black leggings. She pulled all her tangled hair into a ponytail. She put her arms around his waist and gave him a gentle peck on his lips, "I'll make the pancakes after I see Tony."

He nodded along with her decision and returned to getting dressed, once they were both ready they moved to the already open elevator and JARVIS took them straight to the floor which Tony was on.

He was looking up at a big screen on the wall sat in a big office chair, when he heard the ding of the elevator Tony thought it would be humorous to turn around in his seat, sending the two characters a dangerous look.

It took a few seconds before his serious façade broke and he grinned widely. "And the star-crossed lovers returned, I prefer this ending cover Romeo and Juliet." He quipped smartly, standing up and walking closer towards the two.

She ignored what he said and crossed her arms in front of her body, a frown forming on her angled face. "What do you want Tony? I was kind of busy sleeping." She sassed, walking around him to the computer.

"And we both know you need as much sleep as you can get." He whispered, not counting on Summer actually being to hear him and when he realised she did hear he knew that he'd end up paying for that comment later. He coughed and swirled around, snapping his fingers together as he started to explain why he had called for her. "All right so, JARVIS bring up the video please?"

The screen lit up and they witnessed an aerial view of about 50 people and quite a lot of machines drilling into the ground of the Grand Canyon.

"I'm guessing that's HYDRA then." Summer said, her eyes analysing every movement and detail of the video.

"Yep," Tony hummed, his own eyes looking over what he'd already seen, "they moved all agents to this spot and have been digging relentlessly." He informed her, watching her to try and see what decision she was trying to make.

"That means they've figured out where it is I'm guessing." She looked to Tony and he nodded, confirming her thoughts. It was pretty obvious from the mad rush those soldiers were in to dig through the ground that they'd officially found where SAIL was location. Summer waited a few seconds before she spoke again, her mind going through a very messy thought process. "So we just let them dig it up." She decided to everyones surprise.

She turned around and smiled at the two men and walked up to the elevator, waiting for the door to whir open and take her to the kitchen. As soon as she stepped in she ordered JARVIS to take her to the kitchen, both Bucky and Tony rushed to get in the elevator with her. "What? Please tell me you're not seriously thinking of handing over the most powerful mistake on the planet to a couple of power hungry puppies!" Tony yelled, throwing his hands in the air like a mad man.

"Of course not, it just saves us from wasting our time fighting against them all. They dig it up, they'll go transfer it to the main base and then we'll attack on the transfer - and just like that, we have the SAIL back in our hands where we can work to destroy it. No hustle or bustle needed." She explained, the doors of the elevator opened and she stepped out.

Bucky looked over to Tony and he did a little shrug, "All right, sounds like a plan." Tony chimed. He walked up to the counter and plopped his butt down on to one of the stools, placing his head lazily in one hand.

Bucky followed and did the same. "Pancakes!" Summer's boyfriend cheered happily when he realised what Summer was doing.

Tony instantly perked up, "oh my god yes pancakes!" He yelled along with Bucky, his mouth practically watering.

"Calm your pancake boner guys, jeez." She chortled, placing down all the ingredients for the pancakes and collecting a jug and a pan.

"My boner for your pancakes is as big as Thor's hammer, now be a good woman and hurry up making my food." Tony said with a seriousness in his voice that most wouldn't know was faux, but Summer knew Tony better than most people so she understood that his words meant no harm, they were just a mixture of a bad joke and great acting.

"Watch it Stark." She played along, waving her whisk in his face as a smirk folded on the corner of her lips.

Bucky was watching the conversation between the two very carefully and once they'd finished he looked towards Summer with an expectant look and then turned to Tony realising he'd be the brutally honest one if put against Summer. "Should I be worried that you're saying that sort of stuff to my wi- girlfriend."

"Totally, we use to have really hot passionate sex and now she's still into me but I'm currently with a girl named Pepper." He mumbled, once again failing to whisper quiet enough so that Summer didn't hear.

She stopped whisking for a second to send them both a pointed look, "That's not true, I just use to babysit him all the time." She explained and begun pouring it into the pan that she'd placed onto the stove. Turning her attention mainly to not burning the pancakes.

Tony nodded his head and then decided to add onto what Summer said, enjoying the way he was able to confuse Bucky. It was like the good old days with Cap when he was a completely moron to stuff to do with the 21st century. "Yeah she'd take me to her science lab and teach me all she knew. She's like Anakin Skywalker and I'm Luke Skywalker, the better version."

"He doesn't understand that reference you idiot." She laughed, beginning to put the pancakes on the four different plates, moving quickly to complete the task. After another couple of minutes she'd finished off making the pancakes and she turned back to her two favourite men, "someone go wake up Steve, breakfast is almost ready." She ordered.

"I will," Tony jumped out of his seat quickly so Bucky didn't even get to think about maybe doing it. "I set JARVIS to ring a explosion sound as an alarm and it's so funny when Steve's scared." He explained, obviously noticing the weird looks that they were giving him.

He strutted over to the elevator and once he let the room Bucky and Summer turned to each other, Bucky jumping up out of his stool to go get his own plate. He stopped just in front of her though, the both of them staring at each other in a sort of happy silence. They were still relishing in the fact that they were back together again, back together and assured that it would stay that way for a long time.

"I'm sure Steve will love Tony for that." She laughed, her green eyes looking up to him with admiration and love. Her eyes reminded him of the meadow beside Bucky's base camp when he was a kid and living on the army camp site after the death of his parents. That's why he enjoyed looking at them, that green meadow was his only place to relax and not be troubled by anyone or anything, it was a beautiful place and that all reflected onto Summer in a way.

"Well, now we're alone," he mumbled quietly, leaning down and connecting their lips in a slow but yet fulfilling kiss. His hands moved up to her hair and his fingers stroked through those oh-so-lovely ginger locks of hers. His other hand seemed to begin explore every curve and feature of her body, memorising it with only his hands available to help him outline her familiar body in his head. He parted his lips from hers, a rather crooked smile taking place on his perfect lips, "I've been waited to do that all morning." He breathed out, soon returning to moving his hands across her body but this time his lips moved to her neck - his favourite part to kiss on her body as it was always the part that made her moan when touched the right way.

"Bucky," she muttered, pushing weakly against her body.

"Summer," he mocked back.

"Ugh," the sound came from the doorway and Bucky and Summer moved only a couple of centimetres apart, looking at Steve Rogers stood in the doorway. He had a messy bed head and his eyes were glazed over from sleep deprivation, the frown on his face was almost scary on the big man and both Summer and Bucky knew instantly that Tony's plan had obviously worked. "I forgot what it was like when you two were dating." He hissed, moving down to the counter and collapsing into the stool.

"Shut up Steve, I'd watch my mouth if I were you considering I still need to get back to you for leaving me in that damn car." She joked evilly with a evil passion burning in her eyes as plans zoomed through her head. She was still wrapped up in Bucky's arms and slowly pulled apart, her body feeling cold without him being stood close to her at all.

"Whatever." He coughed out just as Summer put the plate of pancakes down in front of him.
