Chapter 35

Bucky woke up in the early hours of the morning and was thankfully himself again. He looked really shocked when Natasha pointed her ICER at him and she only stopped when he told her to.

"What did I do?"

"Nothing." Natasha said and he was surprised that she lied to Bucky.

Bucky raised his eyebrow at her. "I know that's not the truth, Natasha."

She put the ICER on the dresser and rolled her eyes at Bucky. "Fine. You threw me into a shelf and Steve against a wall."

Bucky buried his head in his hands. "Oh god. I am so sorry. I can understand if you want me to leave."

Steve began to panic. Bucky couldn't leave again, he just got him back. "Please don't go, Buck."

He looked up with hesitation and uncertainty in his eyes. "You don't have to leave, Bucky." Nat said and they both looked at her. "What happened last night was nothing, believe me." She patted Bucky on the shoulder and then walked towards the door. "I call Tony."

He nodded at her and she left the room. He sat down next to Bucky on the bed. "I get it if you wanna hit me for attacking your girl."

"Natasha is probably the only one who actually understands what you're going through." He said instead. Nat was more than capable of hitting Bucky herself if she wanted to.

He told Bucky to try to get some sleep and left him alone. Nat was in the kitchen and stretching her legs while taking on the phone to who he assumed was Tony. She thanked him and hang up. She turned around and he walked over to her and pressed his lips on hers. He just needed that in that moment. She seemed to understand and looped her arms around his neck when he lifted her on the kitchen counter. He kissed her until they were both out of breath.

"What did he say?" He ran his hand through her hair.

She yawned and he noticed the dark circles under her eyes. She didn't get any sleep last night. "He sends a car tonight for us. It's best if Bucky stays at the Tower. He wants to check his arm and scan his brain. He thinks that Vision and Wanda with their weird mind stone magic can maybe help ease his mind."

That was probably for the best. The Tower had everything Bucky could possible need and he could check on Tony at the same time. Nat yawned again and he saw how she was fighting to keep her eyes open.

"Okay, time for bed now." He carried her to the bedroom and she was already asleep when he put her gently on the bed. He got the blanket up that they threw off the bed during their lovemaking last night and covered her with it. She rolled herself into the covers and curled into a ball. He smiled at the sight before him and left briefly to cancel his run with Sam and to inform him about Bucky. He got back into the bedroom and crawled under the blankets with her. He spooned her and buried his face into her hair and dozed off.

Bucky agreed to stay at Tony's Tower and Happy picked them up in the evening so the darkness would give them some anonymity. He seemed collected but Steve knew him too well and saw that he was nervous.

The three of them had dinner with Tony and Rhodey in Tony's penthouse and Bucky thankfully loosened up a bit and even joked around. He wondered if Bucky remembered that he killed Tony's parents. Tony asked him if Bucky did and when he said he didn't know, Tony asked him to not tell Bucky about it to not make things weird. He really had to give Tony probs for treating Bucky so kindly and welcoming him into his home.

Vision was on some kind of journey around the world and was on his way back to New York. Wanda had finals and would come to the Tower next week. With Tony's connections and money he got Wanda and Pietro into Columbia and according to him they were both excellent students.

They went to bed shortly after dinner and Bucky got a room on Steve's floor. They said good night to Bucky and Natasha was already sleeping when he got out of the bathroom. He pulled her against his chest and her smell lured him to sleep.

FRIDAY was monitoring Bucky but thankfully there were no incidents and they all slept through the night.

He was making his way into Nat's pyjama pants the next morning much to her amusement but then Tony's voice echoed through the apartment. "Wakey,wakey. Breakfast is ready and Birdman is here."

He pulled his fingers out of her and Natasha groaned out in frustration. "Seriously?!"

He shared her frustration and licked his fingers clean. Nat watched him with dark eyes and he decided that they could be a little bit late for breakfast. He ripped her pyjamas pants off causing her to laugh and hastily pulled his own pants down to free his hard cock. He settled between her legs and pushed quickly into her.

Natasha cried out and he stopped his movements. "Did I hurt you?" He checked her face for any signs of pain.

She shook her head and wrapped her legs around his waist. "No, no. It felt so good. Keep going." She kicked him with the heel of her foot. "Fuck me."

He growled and pumped his hips into her. She braced her hands against the headboard and met his thrusts. God, she was so hot and tight. He wanted to spend the whole day inside her. Maybe they could try that one day. Didn't he read about something called cockwarming on the internet?

Natasha flipped them and began to move on top of him. He crossed his arms behind his head and watched her move and how he disappeared into her. She bounched on his cock and smiled down at him. She played with herself and came with cry. He flipped them again and fucked her through her orgasm. He couldn't hold his own off anymore and followed her.

They quickly jumped under the shower together and met the others on the common floor.

"Do you have to parade your post-coital glow like that?" Tony complained at the breakfast table.

He tried his best not to blush but probably failed at it. Natasha threw a muffin at Tony and asked Bucky if he slept well.

He grinned at them. Oh no, he already knew he wouldn't like what was coming next. "I'm really enjoying the soundproof walls here."

Sam choked on his coffee and Tony clapped like a seal. He gave Tony a stern look who ignored him.

Bucky wasn't done yet. "I know you didn't get any back in the day but... poor Natasha. Give her a break!" He smirked and bit into his muffin.

Natasha played with her knife between her fingers. She smiled at Bucky innocently. "Keep talking and I make sure YOU never get any ever again." She leaned forward and stabbed the knife in the chair right in front of Bucky's crotch.

Now Sam clapped and laughed like a seal and all color left Bucky's face. He knew that he could count on his girl to got his back. He kissed her temple and poured juice into her glass.

"So what's on deck for today?" Nat asked between sips and gave him a heated look. Maybe he would have more time for her now with Bucky staying at the Tower. He still felt horrible about forgetting their anniversary.

Tony looked at Bucky who pulled the knife out of the chair. "If it's cool with you I would like to take a look at your arm. And Dr. Cho is here to scan your brain."

He nodded. "Thank you, Tony."

He waved him off and bit into the muffin Nat threw at him earlier.

He decided to stay with Bucky during the procedures while Sam offered to go with Nat back to their apartment to grab a few things. She left after breakfast but not before kissing him and used some tongue to make Tony uncomfortable.

"Are they always like this?" Tony asked Bucky with a groan.

"I think it's cute."

He rolled his eyes at both of them and finished his breakfast.

As it turned out Bucky and Tony got along quite well and Tony was really impressed with Buck's metal arm and how it worked. He did a few tests and made a few jokes about his relationship with Nat that he would have never made if she was present.

Dr. Cho checked Bucky's brain and its function and Steve had to admit he had no idea what she was talking about. But what he did get was that Bucky's brain was healthy and had no damage and she was postive that with the right therapy the HYDRA programming could be removed.

Finally good news. He was so scared when Bucky turned into the Winter Soldier again. He feared that he might had lost him for good even though Nat said that set backs were normal. He hoped that one day his best friend could leave HYDRA behind and live his life the way he wanted to.

He watched Bucky through the window in the infirmary where Dr. Cho was doing a general check up on him when Tony showed up besides.

"I can see why he means so much to you." Tony said looking at Bucky and Dr. Cho.

"I'd do the same for you." He meant it. Natasha and Bucky were the most important people in his life but he still cared deeply about his other friends as well.

"I know." Tony sighed and turned to look at him. "Little bit of advice: make sure Natasha is always your top priority."

He felt a pang in his chest. She hadn't been his priority in the last weeks. "Pepper still not talking to you?"

He shook his head. "No. She said she couldn't do this anymore. Not that I can blame her. I'm not the easiest person to be with."

"I'm sorry."

"Yeah, me too. So make sure you cherish what you have with her while you have it."

Steve nodded and they both watched the check up through the window. Bucky must have worked his charm because Dr. Cho shook her head and blushed. It was good to see that the old Bucky was still in there.

He was on his floor with Bucky introducing him to Mario Kart when Nat came back. FRIDAY informed them that she and Sam needed some help to carry the suit cases and they took the elevator down to the garage.

Nat had her back to them and was halfway in the trunk of the SUV. She changed her outfit and was now wearing a jeans skirt and those suede boots that went over the knee. They reminded him of stockings and his mouth watered at the sight. Would it be totally rude to tell Sam and Bucky to get lost so he could fuck her in the trunk of the car? It probably was.

Nat was now climbing into the trunk on all fours and she was really testing his willpower. Bucky snickered beside him. "Turn it down a notch, Romanoff! Steve looks ready to eat you alive."

She looked over her shoulder confused and then smirked when she saw his face. She always told him that she could see on his face when he wanted to have sex. And he really wanted to have sex right now.

She came out of the trunk with a little suit case that he knew contained her beauty products. "Forget it, soldier. I'm meeting Pepper and Maria later at a hip new place. Hence the outfit."

He frowned and she laughed at him. "You're cute when you're frustrated."

Sam pushed a suit case into his arms. "Stop staring at the lady and help us with this. There is no way we're carrying this alone."

The four of them managed to carry the stuff up at once and he really wondered why Nat packed so many bags. He had the suspicion that most of them stored her clothes because she loved fashion and had her own walk in closet at their apartment ( they sacrificed one guest room for it) while he only had a normal closet in their bedroom.

They unpacked the suff and he saw that she took his art supplies and Bucky's journals with her to the Tower. He gave her a light kiss when he spotted his sketchbook and thanked her.

"We don't know how long we'll stay here." She shrugged and put a leather jacket on a hanger.

He pushed her gently against a wall in their closet and cupped her face. "Do you know how amazing you are? Coming here with us even though you don't have to?" He kissed her softly. "I love you so much. You are the best thing that ever happened to me. Thank you so much for helping me with Bucky."

"Bucky is your family and...and you're mine...so..." She trailed off and appeared to be a little bit embarrassed. He brushed his thumb over her lower lip and she closed her eyes.

"Steve." She sighed and he knew that tone too well.

"When do you have to meet Pepper and Hill?"

Her hands went to his belt. "I have to go in half an hour. Better hurry up." She unbuckled his pants and began to stroke his length to get him going. He groaned at the touch and gave her a deep and wet kiss.

She stopped touching him and pulled her skirt up. He lifted her up against the wall and she wrapped her legs around his hips. He moved her panties to the side and pressed into her. Her head fell back against the wall and he kissed her exposed neck. They didn't have too much time so he fucked into her hard and fast. She panted his name over and over again and he could only grunt into her neck in response. Normally he would drag her orgasm out until she begged him to make her come but they didn't have the time for that so instead he rubbed hard on her clit to match his thrusts and she came with a scream. He gave her a few more hard thrusts and then he followed her over the edge. They needed a few moments to catch their breath before he gently put her back on her feet. He grabbed one of his shirts and cleaned her up. He was tempted to go to his knees to lick her clean but then they would never leave this closet and she deserved some time with her girlfriends.

She grinned at him when he looked at her. "What?"

"My lipstick looks good on you."

He watched movies with the guys and they all watched Sam getting turned down by Dr. Cho when he asked her out. Apparently she was already seeing someone. Sam wasn't disappointed or mad and said that they could still go out as friends sometime.

He was already in bed reading when the door opened and Natasha stumbled into the room. She shushed herself and started to giggle when she saw him.

"Are...are you drunk?" He didn't think that was possible. Nat always claimed that Russians couldn't get drunk.

"What?!" She made a beeline straight for the bed and sat down on her side. "NO!" She giggled again. Her cheeks were rosey and her eyes glassy. She was definitely drunk. It was kinda cute but she would probably have a hangover tomorrow.

She tried to get out of her overknee boots but had no success. "Steeeve?" She whined and plopped dramatically on the bed. "Help?"

He laughed and got out of bed to help her get her shoes off. She pressed her foot against his crotch. "Natasha." He moved her foot away. "Stop that." He didn't know how drunk she was and if she could really consent to sex in her current state.

She pouted but stopped. She sat up again and raised her hands over her head. He helped her out of her shirt and gulped when he saw that she wore a black lace bra underneath it. He looked away when she unclapsed her bra and helped her into her camisole. He got her out of her jeans skirt and slid her sleeping shorts over her legs.

"Thanks." She mumbled and pressed a kiss to the corner of his mouth. She was probably aiming for his lips.

"Did you have fun with the girls?" He asked her while putting her clothes and boots aside so she wouldn't fall over them if she got up during the night.

"Mhm." She crawled up the bed until she reached the headboard to sit against it. "Hill got a box of the good stuff at her place. Stoli right out of Moscow." She tugged on the blankets and looked confused when they didn't move.

"Doll, you're sitting on them."

"Right." She pulled her legs against her upper body and tugged at the blankets again." And we drank the box. Well, Pepper and Maria backed out after two bottles and I drank the rest. Amateurs!" She huffed out and sighed happily when she managed to cover herself with the blanket.

"And how much was the rest?" He got back into bed.

She looked at her fingers and then held two up.

"You drank two bottles of vodka on your own?"

"Relax, I'm Russian." She slured out and poked him with her fingers. "I'm like a supersoldier in that area."

"Jesus, Nat. You could have gotten alcohol poisoning."

She looked offened and pulled the blankets up to her chin. "That's not gen-... generatilly...genentici-...It's not possible!"

She slid down until she was flat on her back. "Make love to me, Steve. I'm horny!"

She was in no state to have sex with him. "Tomorrow, Nat." He got out of bed.

"Where are you going?"

"Getting you water and an aspirin. And a spit bucket."

He came back with it and made her take an aspirin and drink a whole bottle of water. She seemed a bit better after it.

"You wanna know what we talked about?"

"Sure."

"Your dick." She said simply.

"WHAT?!"

"Well not really." She rolled herself into a ball. "Pepper and Maria wanted to know if the serum enhanced everything and how your performance in the bedroom is."

He probably had a full body blush. "And you told them?"

"Of course not!" She pulled the blanket up to her shoulder. "A lady never kisses and tells. But I did make sure that they knew that you are the best sex of my life."

"I am?" He should probably be embarrassed that she talked with her friends about these things but he felt mostly proud and smug right now.

"Yeah." Her eyes fell shut and she snuggled against him. "Will you fuck me tomorrow morning? All the sex talk made me really horny." She whispered sleeply.

She would probably have a major headache the next morning but he went along with it for now. "Of course.""

"Awesome."

She didn't say anthing else and when he checked she was asleep. He told FRIDAY to turn the lights off and watched her sleep for some time until he fell asleep himself.

As always thank you for your feedback!
