Small Town, Big City: 4

You call Maria that night, after you and Steve had dinner of frozen pizza. She answers on the second ring.

“Oh my god. Where the hell are you?” She demands and you roll your eyes.

“I’m fine. I’m in a tiny town called Knowhere, that piece of shit car finally gave out on me.”

“Damn it. Are you okay?”

“Yea, I’m fine. Local sheriff found me and helped me get to town.” If that’s what you can call it.

“And you’re somewhere safe?”

“Yea I’m good. Couldn’t be safer.” You promise and it’s not a lie, even though you’re staying in a stranger’s home you don’t for a second doubt that you’re safe.

“The town you’re in must be tiny. Sam said it doesn’t even show up on the app.”

“Maybe his app just sucks.” You say teasing your brother-in-law.

“Hey!” Sam yells from the background and you laugh.

“Just kidding Sammy. It’s a tiny town. Like, tiny.”

“Can you run diagnostics for me when you’re in the middle of town?” Sam has been working on his tracking app for a while, it’s different than find my friends or life 360 because it’s easier to get directions to someone and it’s actually notifies you when someone leaves their area or enters your circle to come pick you up. With you traveling cross country Sam has asked you to do a lot of diagnostic work on it to fine tune it before it goes live for everyone.

“Of course.”

“So what’s your plan?”

“Honestly I don’t really have one. I think I’m going to hang around here for a little while. There’s a cute little diner I can work at and they need an actual vet. There isn’t one.”

“You don’t have the cash flow to open your own place. Do you know how much that’s going to cost?”

“Well, Carol can get me what I need for wholesale and she’s willing to do credit. I’m going to be fine momma bear.” You soothe and she sighs heavily. “You’ve got Peter to worry about now. And the twins are going to be graduating soon so worry about them. I’ve got this. You know I do.”

“I know T. It’s just, I worry about you all alone down there.”

“Maybe this is exactly what I needed. A fresh start.”

“If you need one of us to come get you or you need money for repairs let me know okay?”

“Okay.” Hell no you won’t. She has enough to worry about with a new baby and Sam’s app launch coming up they don’t need the added stress of you and your drama. “I’m going to get going though. I love you Maria.”

“Love you too. Be safe.” You hang up then and drop back on the pillow of your borrowed bed. You groan softly, this is not how you’d hoped your week would go.

You get ready for bed, brushing your teeth in the T-shirt and shorts that you usually wear, you wash your face then dry it before heading out of the bathroom. You nearly crash into Steve as you round the corner.

“Oh! Oh god I’m sorry.” You mumble as you and Steve move in sync back and forth in an awkward dance. Steve gently grasps your shoulders and moves you to the side.

“There.” He says with a smile as you pass one another and you laugh softly.

“Thank you again for letting me rent from you. Fury is so sweet, the name is perfect irony.”

“Right. He’s a good boy.” He says as the lab comes trotting up the stairs tail going wildly. “It’s like he knows when I’m talking about him.” He says with a laugh as you crouch down to pet the dog.

“I mean he could. Tone of voice, body language, shift in body temperature, even smell could change and he could tell.”

“Really?”

“Yea, dogs are crazy intuitive and can pick up on really subtle changes. You hear stories about animals saving their humans all the time.”

“Their humans?”

“People are shifting away from saying owners because our pets are family and are treated that way more now. That shift is causing different terminology too, like I get a lot of pet parents and dog moms and dads. Less owners.”

“It feels wrong, somehow, to say I’m his owner.”

“I get it. He’s a sweet boy.”

“Don’t let him fool you. He can be a terror.”

“How old is he?”

“Almost 3.”

“So he’s still a puppy, it’s like he’s in his teenage years. Do you know both his breeds?”

“I don’t think so. Why?”

“Certain breeds can cause them to have health issues you’ll need to watch out for.” You feel his hips before running your hands down his back legs. “They feel great though, so that’s good.”

“You can tell from just that?”

“Dogs are my speciality but I do know other animals.”

“If you’re as good with other animals as you are with Fury you’ll have people in no time.” He says giving the dog an affectionate pat.

“Thanks Steve.” You give him a smile then stand from your crouched position. “I don’t know how long I’ll stay but I’m grateful for the place to stay.”

“I’m glad this worked out. Is your sister okay with it?”

“I didn’t exactly tell her. I told her that I was safe and I am and that’s what matters.” Steve gives you another little smile, “well, goodnight Steve.”

“Goodnight.” You go back to your bedroom and gently close the door and lock it. It’s not that you don’t trust Steve it’s just that you’re in a new place and would prefer to have the door locked. Plugging in your phone you turn on an alarm then turn off the light.

You’ve got a plan for tomorrow, you’re going to go to Bucky first, you’ve met him and he won’t think that you’re coming for his job since you just want to be an employee. Then, after you’ve been introduced to Stan you’ll give him a couple days then offer to help out with the veterinary work and hopefully all will go smoothly and you’ll be up and running within the month.

Small town, Big City: 3

You and Steve end up talking at Bucky’s for two hours before your phone rings. It’s an unknown number so you pick up assuming it’s Nat.

“Hey.”

“Baby. I’m so glad you answered.” Your heart sinks when you hear Brock’s voice. “Where are you?”

“Brock,” you say his name and Steve’s gaze meets yours. “I told you, I’m going home. We’re over.”

“Come on baby gimme another chance.”

“No, don’t call me again.” You tell him before hanging up the phone and blocking the number. “That’s the fifth call.” You tell Steve, “it’s like, what an asshole.”

“I’m sorry. I wish there was something I could do.”

“You’ve done more than enough, bandaged my wound, got me a tow truck, helped me eat my scone and muffin. All you’ve done today is protect and serve.” Steve chuckles but it doesn’t reach his eyes. Your phone rings again and you look anxiously down at it, Steve tilts his head and you turn the phone so he can read it better.

“That’s Nat.”

“Thanks,” you tell him as you pluck the phone off of the table. “Hello?”

“Hey, it’s Nat. Can you come back to the shop?”

“Yea, I’m just at Bucky’s so I’ll be there in a couple minutes.”

“Sounds good.” She says before hanging up.

“Sounds like Nat’s done with my car.” You tell Steve standing up. “What do I do with the plate and stuff?”

“I can take them. There’s a little dish return spot at the counter.”

“Thank you, for everything.” You tell him, honestly you’re kind of sad to be leaving him. He’s been so nice, hanging out with you and helping you off the side of the road. And it doesn’t hurt that he’s handsome as sin, literally the most attractive man you’ve ever seen.

You walk into Nat’s shop five minutes later, you’re kicking yourself that you didn’t at least ask for Steve’s number, you know just in case.

“Hey. So bad news. I think the car is totaled.” Nat says wiping her hands on a towel.

“What?”

“It’s going to cost more for me to fix your radiator and the serpentine belt than the car is worth. By at least 3 grand. And even then if I get those fixed you’ve got almost 300 thousand miles on this car and the back axel probably won’t make it all the way back to Illinois.”

“Shit.” You don’t have the money to fix that much on the car, and certainly don’t have enough to just buy a new car. “Shit.” You say again running your hand through your hair.

“I know, I’m so sorry.” Nat says and you can tell that she is sorry. “I can buy it off of you for five for parts but I think that’s the best offer you’re going to get. Especially out here.”

“Is there somewhere I can stay the night while I figure things out?”

“Not here. There’s a place over in Hala but that’s a three hour round trip.”

“Great.” You say sarcastically, “Okay let me get some of my stuff out of the back. Is there somewhere I could pitch a tent?”

“Let me make a call really quick. I bet I can find somewhere you can crash for the night.”

“You don’t have to do that. I can camp I don’t mind.” Nat waves you off as she pulls her phone from her pocket and heads away from you. You open the back door and pull one of your bags from it then pop the trunk and grab the tent. Just in case. You’d rather sleep in the tent than in some stranger’s house.

“I wouldn’t camp tonight.” A male voice says from behind you and you nearly jump out of your skin he startles you so bad. When you look over your shoulder you see a blond haired man in a deputy’s uniform standing in the garage doorway. “It’s supposed to storm pretty bad. I’m Clint. Nat’s husband.”

“Hi, I’m T.”

“Nice to meet the new girl in town. But seriously, it’s too dangerous to be camping tonight.”

“I can always sleep in my car.”

“Or you can sleep in the spare room at my place.” Steve says walking into the garage. Buck and I used to live together but now he’s got a place above the bakery so I’ve got a spare room.”

“You’ve already helped me out so much today. Honestly, you really don’t need to. I can crash in my car.” You assure him and Steve shakes his head.

“Remember, protect and serve? I really don’t mind. Besides, I have a dog.”

“You only said that because I’m a vet and I love animals.”

“Did it work?” You sigh heavily,

“Yea. Fine. But I’m paying you.”

“Nope.”

“Yes. Or I sleep in my car.” You argue, Clint and Nat watch on in amusement.

“Okay fine. We can talk about it when we get there. Come on.” He says plucking your bag from the floor. “Is it okay if we walk? It’s like 2 streets down.”

“Yea, most of the traveling I do is walking.” You tell him as you follow him out the door. An idea hits as the two of you walk past the pet store. “Oh my god! Steve, does Knowhere have a Veterinarian?”

“Sorta, Stan isn’t a licensed one but he knows his stuff. He’s also 86 so he doesn’t do much treatment anymore. Why?”

“I can’t afford a new car right now, I’m going to need to find a way to make some money. I saw the cattle on the way into town, maybe I could set something up with Stan and the pet store to do some actual treatment of animals. Vaccines, surgeries, births whatever. Are there places for rent here?”

“I’m looking for a roommate.”

“Seriously? Or are you just saying that to be nice?”

“Seriously. We don’t get a lot of new people out here, the school has the highest turnover of anywhere. I don’t know how much business you’ll get, but you could talk to Stan. The other thing you could do is work at Bucky’s. He’s working himself to death, at the bakery every damn day.” He says as he leads you up the walkway for a cute little white house, the door is black and so are the shutters on the front window. It’s an adorable little house, the only thing missing, in your opinion, are some flowers.

“Home sweet home.” Steve says with a smile over at you.

Small Town, Big City: 2

As you and Nat drive back to the town you text Maria to let her know that you’ve decided to stop. Your older sister is less an older sister and more a mom figure, to you and your younger siblings. When your phone starts to ring and her picture pops up you groan and don’t answer it, letting it continue to ring.

“Who are you avoiding?” Nat asks and you huff a laugh.

“My older sister. She’s always been more a mother figure to me, Pietro and Wanda. My dad took off when I was a kid and mom went to prison my freshman year. Maria was a senior, thankfully, and we were able to keep our family together. It wasn’t easy but we made it work.”

“I’m sorry.” She says and you shrug, “I get it though, Clint and I got married when I turned 18 and his father did not approve. He died last year, never forgave Clint or me but fuck ‘em.”

“Damn.”

“Yea, he’s a real asshole.” She says with a laugh, “sometimes I wonder how Clint is so great when his dad was such a piece of shit.” She says pulling off of the freeway behind Steve. “Welcome to Knowhere.” She says as a few houses start to appear along the roadside.

“That’s how you pronounce it?”

“Yea, what did you think?”

“Know here.” She chuckles,

“Yea makes sense.” She agrees, “so this is old downtown, while I’m working on your car you could go to the cafe or the diner. If you go to the cafe you should try the scones. They’re awesome.”

“Good to know.” You note out the window that there’s a small pet store called Stan’s pets. There’s a dentist, a doctors office, a few clothing stores, a hardware store, and an old white church.

“Alright, I’ll get right to work on this so we can get you back on the road. Can you fill out some paperwork with Happy at the front?”

“Oh, yea of course. Thanks for the ride.” You tell her climbing out of the truck and making your way to the enclosed part of the shop where a dark haired man is waiting for you behind a counter.

“Hi, uh Nat said there was some paperwork for me?”

“Yup, just this.” He says sliding the paper and a pen toward you. You fill out the paperwork, your address, phone number, insurance information and what details you know about your car. Things like mileage, when was the last time you got an oil change, how long it’s been since you rotated your tires, the little things that you probably should’ve paid more attention to.

Once you’re done you head out to start exploring the small town of Knowhere. You visit a few of the little shops before wandering into the cafe. It’s called Bucky Bakes and the inside looks like the inside of a log cabin and it’s adorable. The man behind the counter has shoulder length brown hair, a sleeve up his arm and an easy smile.

“Hi there, how can I help you?”

“Hi, what would you recommend drink wise? I don’t like tasting my coffee but I like the caffeine.” He laughs softly and leans forward on the counter.

“How do you feel about caramel?”

“Big fan.”

“What about whipped cream?”

“Even bigger fan.”

“Alright give me a couple minutes and I’ll have something whipped up for you. Is there anything I can get you while you wait?”

“Um, a scone? The chocolate raspberry sounds amazing.” To your surprise the man scowls at you.

“Did someone tell you to ask for a scone?”

“Uh, Nat told me that they were really good but she didn’t say I should. Why?”

“We have a bet going and she keeps telling people to try the scones to sway the bet in her favor.”

“What’s the bet?”

“She thinks that scones will sell better than the muffins.”

“So if I order a muffin too will that keep you even?” A smile lights his face and he grins over at you.

“It will! I like the way you think. Bucky Barnes.” He says reaching across the counter and shaking your hand as you introduce yourself.

“You’re welcome to call me T though. My friends and family all do.”

“T?”

“For Tornado, I’ve always been kind of all over the place. My sister says I’m a bit of a walking disaster and I think this week has been a perfect example.”

“Are you the girl Steve found on the side of the road?”

“Yep.”

“Coffee’s on me then T.”

“You don’t have to.”

“I know.”

“What do I owe you for the scone and muffin then?”

“$4.28.” You pass him a five and watch as he makes change then when he passes it back to you you dump it into the tips jar. “Thank you, what did you want for your muffin? You said the chocolate raspberry for your scone.”

“I’ll let you pick.” You tell him with a smile and he plucks a muffin from the display case.

“Blueberry lemon. It’s Steve’s favorite so if you hate it you can give it to him.” Bucky says jerking his chin toward the door. Sure enough Sheriff Rogers comes into the coffee shop, he’s still in his uniform when he sees you he gives you a smile.

“Hello, glad you survived Nat’s driving.”

“Yea, and I wandered a little bit. I’m still waiting to hear the damage.”

“Fingers crossed then.”

“No kidding.” You tell him taking the small plate with your scone and muffin from Bucky. “If you’d like you’re welcome to join me. I’ve got more snacks here than I need but was guilted into getting both.”

“You heard about the bet?”

“I heard about the bet.” He chuckles as a cup is passed to him from Bucky.

“I’d love to join you. Did you get something to drink too?”

“I’ll bring it out to you T.”

“Thank you.”

“T?” Sheriff Rogers asks as he follows you to one of the tables. You explain the nickname to him and he frowns. “Seems like a mean nickname to me.”

“It’s not wrong though.” You say with a shrug as Bucky brings your drink over.

“It’s hot.” He warns and you nod, “let me know what you think.” He says and you pretend you don’t see the knowing grin on his face.

Small Town, Big City

You can hear the engine before you can see it, but just by sound you know that it’s a motorcycle. Great. The last thing you need is some biker dude rolling by, seeing you and your piece of shit car and coming back to hit on you. You keep your focus on your car, you’ve already burned yourself once you don’t need to twice, as the bike roars by.

“Please keep going. Please keep going. Please keep going.” You mutter under your breath but luck has abandoned you as the motorcycle turns around and comes back your way.

“Ma’am? Ma’am? Are you alright?” He calls, him calling you ma’am throws you off a bit.

“I’m fine thanks.” You yell back, still not turning around.

“Ma’am. Can you please turn around? My name is Sheriff Rogers I just want to make sure you’re okay.” Sheriff? You turn then, water bottle in one hand, flashlight in the other and are somehow still surprised to see a sheriff standing in front of you.

“Oh, sorry I just assumed that you were a biker and really didn’t wanna deal with that.” He’s tugged off the helmet, his hair smooshed down from it and he gives you a small nod and a smile.

“Understandable. But you’re okay?”

“I mean, mentally yea, physically I burned my arm pretty good with some steam. Emotionally? I’m gonna be honest with you. Pretty shitty.”

“Well, I can help with the burn for sure. I’ve got a kit on my bike but the emotional stuff I don’t know. I’m a good listener at least.” He offers with a small smile, one you can’t help but return. You turn back to your car and pour some water into the radiator.

“Alright ma’am. Can I see your arm?”

“Oh, oh my god you scared me. You move quietly.”

“Sorry.”

“It’s okay.” You turn and give him your arm and he lets out a low whistle.

“You said it was steam?”

“Yea I opened the radiator too soon, shot some steam out at me.”

“Ouch, it doesn’t look too bad though. I’m going to put some burn ointment on there then wrap it to keep it clean okay?”

“Sounds good.” He gets to work, his large hands much more gentle than you’d have expected them to be. You chat as he tends to your battle wound.

“So, you mentioned emotionally not good.” He says not looking at you, “Wanna talk about it?” You sigh heavily, watching as he gently applies the burn ointment.

“I’m from Chicago, had a job, a nice apartment. Family nearby. But my boyfriend, sorry, my ex-boyfriend got a job down in New Mexico.” You wince as he hits a tender spot.

“Sorry.”

“No it’s okay. Anyway, Brock asked me to move with him. We’d been together almost two years so I figured why not. He left a week before me, mailed me a key to our new place. I packed up this piece of shit and drove all the way out here. Walked in on him having sex with another guy, which honestly is fine just maybe break up with me first. Ya know?”

“I’m so sorry that happened to you.” He says softly wrapping the gauze around your arm. “So are you heading home?”

“Yea, gonna stay with a friend until I find a place. Luckily, I can kind of work anywhere there are animals so a job isn’t an issue.”

“You work with animals?”

“I’m a veterinarian.”

“That’s cool. You wanna try your car again?”

“Yea.” You round the car and try to start the engine when a loud bang sounds and Steve ducks. “Are you okay?” You call over your open door.

“I’m fine. But your serpentine belt isn’t.”

“My what?”

“The belt that goes around the engine. One of my best friends owns a car shop and some of the guys and I hang out there on the weekends. We’re working on an old ‘67 mustang right now. Let me give them a call and we’ll get you a tow.”

“Oh god. This is the last thing I need.” You groan dropping your forehead onto the top of the steering wheel. You can hear Sheriff Rogers talking to someone through his walkie and you check again for a signal on your phone. You’re disappointed but not surprised when there’s still no service. You grab your purse off of the seat of the car then throw your keys into it.

“So they’ll be here soon. Can I see your ID really quick? I should run it through the system, make sure you’re not wanted or anything.”

“Oh, right.” You pull your wallet out and pass him your ID. He calls it in and when you come back clear he gives it back.

“Sorry about that.”

“No reason to be, you’re just doing your job.” He nods then glances over his shoulder, you follow his gaze and see a dark spot on the horizon.

“That your friend?”

“Probably. She drives too fast, especially when she knows where we all are.” He says shaking his head with a small smile on his face.

Sure enough that dark spot on the horizon becomes a bright red tow truck.

“Hey Steve.” A small, slender woman calls as she drops out of the truck. “You said something about the serpentine belt?”

“Yea, when it was started it snapped.”

“When was the last time this bad boy got serviced?” The woman asks looking over at you.

“Uh, my brother usually just does it so, by a professional, maybe 4 years?”

“Oh dear god.” She mutters before laying down on the ground and attaching the large metal hook to the front of your car. She moves quickly and before you know it your car is hooked up and ready to go.

“Come on, you can ride with me.” She says with a grin at you, “Don’t worry Steve I’ll go the speed limit.”

“Just cuz you’re married to a deputy doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want.” He huffs in a poor attempt to look irritated.

“Okay.”

“Natasha.” He warns his voice low, “don’t make me call Clint.”

“You know he’ll just fold.” She says with a laugh and he rolls his eyes but doesn’t argue.

“At least let me give you an escort.” Sheriff Rogers says making his way back to his motorcycle.

“Score.” Natasha says with a laugh, “that’s what I was hoping he’d do.” She tells you with a wink causing you to laugh.

Maybe you can find me the link for chapter 11? Thanks love! Xx

Hi! Hope you’re having a wonderful day! I saw your response to a nonnie’s ask, and you mentioned that you’re currently working on other writing projects and also planning to rewrite some stories. If you don’t mind sharing, what are you working on at the moment? And which stories are you thinking of rewriting? Would love to hear more! Thank you! xx

I’m working on a lot of original stuff, I’d like to get another one published which is my pop star x hockey player one called Five for Fighting, that’s in the editing stage. I need to finish editing the next one in the into the woods grouping, I published the first one last year.

As for stuff on here, I have Naja Returns, one that I’m not going to share yet because I want it done but it’s a Steve Rogers AU. As for rewrites I think next on the list is Good Golly Miss Molly.

This is a one shot and I’m not sure I’ll be revisiting them any time soon. I’m so glad you love them but I’m working on other stuff and want to do a rewrite of a couple stories so I don’t see myself hitting this one.

A Thousand Words

You’re a photo journalist during the Battle of New York. When you get in a bit over your head you’re saved by a Super Soldier. He doesn’t appreciate the fact that you don’t follow orders, but at the end of the day you’ve got a job to do.

Naja Returns: 2

When you get Cassie back to the safe house you switch out the plates on the car, just in case. Then, slipping out of the garage you pull your phone out of your pocket and find Bucky’s number. Taking a deep breath you press his name then put the phone to your ear.

“Hi Doll.”

“Bucky.” You’re a bit embarrassed to admit that you sound breathless when you say his name.

“You somewhere safe?”

“Yea.” You assure him, it warms your heart that he’s asked. “Why are you in New York?”

“Never really left. I got a place in Brooklyn after everything that went down with you.”

“Oh.” He, never left?

“Can we meet up somewhere? I feel like we have a lot to talk about and I’d rather do it face to face.”

“You can come here. Just, make sure you’re not followed.”

“Your client is okay with that?”

“I trust you and she trusts me.” I tell him and Bucky is quiet for a moment.

“I, thank you.” You’re surprised that he seems surprised by this information. He did save your life once after all.

“I’ll send you my address.”

“Is this your new number?”

“Yea.”

“Okay. I’ll see you in a few.” He promises and after you hang up you send him the address. Cassie is in the bedroom when his car pulls up.

“Hey Cassie. Bucky is here do you wanna hang with us or in your room?”

“I’ll stay in my room if that’s okay? He’s such a big man.”

“Whatever makes you more comfortable. I’ll keep him in the living room.”

“Thank you. For everything.” You can’t help but give her a little smile, Cassie is a sweetheart and you hate what he’s done to her. The knock at the door doesn’t surprise you, it’s two quick taps, not loud but loud enough to hear across the house. When you pull the door open Bucky moves into the house.

“Hi.” He says not looking at you but instead glancing around the room. “Where is Cassie?”

“In her room. She doesn’t need to be here does she?”

“No.” He stares at you for a moment. “It’s really nice to see you Tori.”

“You too Bucky.” This is kind of awkward, you don’t know how to react. The last time you saw him you were running away from him after killing several men. “Do you want to sit down?” He sinks onto the couch then looks over at you on the armchair.

“So, you’ve put yourself on the map with some dangerous men.”

“Not the first time. Won’t be the last.” You tell him with a little shrug.

“Probably true.” He rests his elbows on his knees, “but Sam thinks these ones are dirty. So these ones have a badge and probably a vendetta.”

“Great.” You deadpan and he gives you a little smile. “Thanks for the heads up.”

“I want to hire you.”

“I’m a little busy Bucky.”

“I know. I have a plan for that too.”

“That you came up with in less than an hour?” You ask with raised brows and he chuckles.

“The plan started to come together the second I saw you.” You lean back in your chair waiting for him to continue. “I could put Natasha on your client. She’s the best female I have. We’ll keep the same agreement you have with her and we’ll stay on her until you’re satisfied that the job is done.”

“They know me now.”

“So did I.” He says locking eyes with you. “Tori. My team isn’t built for surveillance and evidence gathering. You took down an entire team of assassins by yourself in less than twelve hours. I got an up close and personal look at how you work and I’m still not sure how you did it.”

“I have to talk to Cassie about this. I won’t just abandon her to someone she doesn’t trust.”

“Understandable. I can have Nat come over?”

“I want to talk to Cassie first. Before anyone comes over.”

“Okay.” He agrees, “would you ever consider actually joining Nomad?”

“No.” Bucky laughs softly at your immediate response, and you’re glad that you didn’t offend him. “No offense but I’m better working on my own.”

“I wasn’t offended. It would just offer you some extra protection if something were to happen.”

“If I kill someone.”

“Yea.”

“I’ve only killed one guy and that was because he started it.” You tell him, in your defense he did start it. He’d started the shooting the second he’d laid eyes on you, you’d just finished the shooting. Bucky grins at you,

“Just give it a thought Doll? Please?” You nod and he leans back against the couch.

“How have you been?” He asks,

“I’ve been okay. Keeping busy, trying to make sure that I don’t slip back into bad habits.”

“Like?”

“Do you know how easy it would be for me to just, get rid of these men and not bring them to the police?”

“I’d like to think it would give you some pause after six years.”

“You’d think.” You agree but he’s wrong. Sometimes it’s so easy to imagine how you’d take care of the shit heads before you met Bucky.

“And you’ve really been okay?”

“Yea. I have steady work, I feel like I’m making a positive difference. It’s, nice.”

“Good. Are you,” he shifts in his seat, “are you seeing anyone?”

“No. Hard to date someone when I have to lie to them about my past.”

“Oh, right.” He rubs the back of his neck, “sorry. This is kinda weird right?” You can’t help but laugh,

“Yea it’s kinda weird.” You affirm and he leans back in the chair.

“Why did you run from me?”

“Because, I couldn’t be the person you wanted me to be and being around you when I couldn’t do that was too hard.”

“So you ran from me?”

“And my past. At least a little.” You admit, Bucky nods his head.

“I can understand that. Do you want to go talk to Cassie so I can fill you in on my plan?”

“Yea, it might be a tough sell.” You tell him before standing and heading to the room where Cassie is hanging out.

Naja Returns

It’s been six years. Six years since you killed King Cobra and started over.

Your first protection job had been a young mother who was trying to get away from an abusive ex. He’d broken his restraining order and when he’d tried to kill her you’d swooped in and kicked his ass then dumped him on the doorstep of a police station. You’d had a steady stream of clients since then, people that needed your help, not big wigs who could afford protection like Bucky.

You haven’t lost a client yet and you’d only killed one guy, he was a child molester so you honestly didn’t feel bad.

“Are you sure about this?” Your client, a young woman named Cassie asks.

“You’re being stalked, he’s already attacked you once. This is the right move.” You tell her leading her into the police station with a gentle arm around her shoulders. You’re focused on Cassie when a body comes up behind you, they reach for you. You grab their wrist and twist their arm behind their back before you even know what you’re doing.

“Let me guess,” a familiar voice says, “you’ve got brothers.”

“Bucky?” You breathe before dropping his arm, “oh my god I’m so sorry!”

“Never thought I’d see you inside a police station.”

“Bucky, this is my client Cassie. We’re here to file a police report.”

“So you did it. Protection for the underdogs.” He sounds proud of you, a slow smile crossing his face.

“Yea. Cassie do you want me to come with you?”

“No.” She says quickly and you look at her, her face has paled. You follow her gaze and see the man she’s staring at. He comes stalking over and you see her shrink back and you step in front of her.

“Can I help you ladies?”

“No. We want to talk to the captain.” You tell him and he laughs.

“You don’t get to make that demand. Let me help you out.”

“I’m sorry. Did you not hear me say no?” You ask raising your voice to draw attention. Cassie is holding onto the back of your shirt and the man glares at you.

“That’s not possible.”

“Hey Quill?” Bucky calls and a man with light brown hair looks over, “Can you get Captain Wilson please?” The other man turns his glare onto Bucky.

“Who the hell are you?”

“Name’s James Barnes. Captain Wilson is one of my best friends, what I don’t know is who you are. And I know all the Sargents in this precinct.” He says shoving his hands in his pockets. The other man goes to make a run for it but you’re ready for him. You kick him in the hip as he tries skirt you for Cassie and it throws him off balance enough for you to flip him onto his back knocking the wind out of him.

“You bitch.” He snarls drawing his gun but you’re faster than he is and shoot him with a taser. The gun clatters out of his hand and to the ground where Bucky steps on it and slides it over to a waiting cop.

“Ma’am. You’re under arrest for assault. Please put the taser down.”

“Bucky can you please go into the side pocket of my bag?” You ask calmly unhooking the taser and putting it on the counter next to you. Bucky does as you ask and when he pulls out a card in a holder he reads it and grins.

“She’s personal protection boys.” He says passing the card to one of the officers.

“Tori that’s him.” Cassie whispers into your ear. Bucky’s head whips toward you in surprise. You’d kept using the nickname of Tori, just changing your legal name to Torrance instead of Victoria.

“Great. So you’re going to want to arrest this guy.” You tell the cop coming for you, “Charges are, stalking, harassment, sexual assault, breaking a restraining order and I guess you can add impersonating a police officer to the list.”

“Ma’am please turn around and put your hands behind your back.”

“No.”

“No?”

“No.” Bucky repeats, “She’s one of mine.” He says it so smoothly that you almost believe him.

“The card says Snake Eyes Security.” Officer Quill says looking skeptically at Bucky, “I thought you were Nomad Soldiers.”

“I am. She’s under our umbrella as her own company.”

“Prove it.”

“I don’t have to prove shit to you.”

“What are you charging me with?” You ask and the officer blinks at you.

“Assault and unlawful weapon?”

“It was self defense and I have a license for that taser as well as the gun that’s in my car. Besides, if you did your job then I wouldn’t have to do it for you.” You tell him and Bucky drops his face into his hand.

“Doll.” He grumbles and your heart races, he hasn’t called you that in so long that you can’t help the hope that raises in you.

“Excuse me?” Officer Quill says turning slightly red.

“She has been stalked, harassed and almost killed by that piece of shit and when she tried to report him you told her he hadn’t done anything so you couldn’t do anything.”

“Because legally we can’t.” He snaps taking a step toward you.

“So what does she have to do? End up dead? Give me a fucking break!” You cry and Bucky steps between you and the cop.

“Tori.” Bucky rumbles and you fold your arms over your chest.

“Fine. We’re leaving but if he bothers her again I’m using my gun.”

“That makes it premeditated murder!” Officer Quill cries and you stare at him,

“I never said I was going to kill him! I said I was going to use my gun! Those are very different things.”

“Tori, go. I’ve got this.” Bucky says before turning toward you and murmuring, “my number is the same. I know you changed yours because I’ve tried to find you using it.” You look up at him in surprise, “Yea. I’ve been looking. Now, go.” You nod and loop your arm through Cassie’s, leading her out of the station.

“Okay, so that didn’t go exactly how I was hoping it would.” You tell her, “but, the fact that he was there impersonating a cop will get him jail time at least.”

“How did you know that man?” She asks softly. “The nice one.”

“Bucky and I have worked together before.”

“So you don’t work for him?”

“No. But he knows me and my history, I trust him.”

“Okay. If you trust him then so do I.” Cassie says as you get back into your car. Her trust in you is astonishing, especially after that little police station fiasco that just happened. You never deleted Bucky’s number, how could you when you still cared enough about him to have an alert about his company so you can make sure he’s being safe. You’ll call him once you’ve got Cassie safely hidden away again.

The Librarian

“I’m no good for you Doll.” He’d growled, his rough demeanor usually would have been enough to scare you away. But you’d seen him enough, and the types of books he checked out of the library, to know better.

“What if I don’t care?” You ask softly, brushing some of his hair back off of his forehead.

“It’s not safe. Now that Stark knows about you he could come after you.”

“Wouldn’t that be breaking the rules?”

“Bikers aren’t exactly known for following rules Doll.”

“But their your rules.” You protest and he laughs softly.

“I know, they’re more of guidelines. We’re not supposed to go after spouses, boyfriends or girlfriends but it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.”

“But Clint has Nat and Wanda has Vision.”

“They’re not the leaders of the gang Sweetheart.” You drop your head to his broad shoulder groaning softly. You’d never meant to fall for the leader of the Howlies. The first time you’d seen him at the library you hadn’t even known he was in the Howlies, let alone its leader. It wasn’t until the summer, when he’d come in wearing a tight blue shirt that clung to his muscles like a second skin, that you’d seen the tattoo.

“Steve please don’t ask me to walk away. Please don’t ask me to pretend that I don’t want this. That I don’t want you.” You whisper, keeping your forehead on his shoulder. “My life has been so much better since you came into it.”

“Doll, I can’t risk you gettin’ hurt.”

“But it’s not your decision alone.” You argue, you’ve got a sick feeling in your stomach you’re not going to win this one. You lift your head from his shoulder to look down at where his rough fingers are intertwined with your smaller, softer ones. “Steve.” You choke out before he tips your head and presses his lips to yours. It’s the most bittersweet goodbye you’ve ever had.

“I love you doll.”

“I love you too.” He stands then, you cling to his hand until the last second and when you can’t hold on any longer you let your hands drop into your laps and you sob.

It’s been three days.

The longest three days of your life. You should have known something was up when the three men walked in. The first had black hair, brown eyes and neatly trimmed facial hair. The second, an African American man, with short hair and a slight limp. The final man seemed to be far too young to be involved in whatever these two were up to.

“Hello gorgeous.” The first man purred as he leaned against the counter. Completely invading your space. You took a step back and stood up straight, lifting your chin slightly, you weren’t going to be intimidated by him or his friends.

“Can I help you find something today?”

“Yea. Your boyfriend. Rogers.”

“We’re not dating.”

“Oh really? Then why has he had protection posted outside this building all week?” Protection? You hadn’t noticed any protection.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Besides, if there was someone out there why are you in here?”

“Distracted them with some visitors.” He sneers. Your heart sinks, the only people that Steve would trust to protect you would be himself, Sam, or Bucky.

“If you hurt them-”

“What are you gonna do sweetheart? Give me a paper cut?” The African American man snarks.

“Revoke our library cards?” The first man chimes in. His companions snicker while the youngest of the three checks his phone. You glare at the men, then pick up a book to put away. You’re not going to be intimidated these two.

“Where’s Rogers?” The first man sneers rounding the counter.

“You’re not supposed to be back here.” You tell him, taking a step away from him.

“If you won’t give me Rogers then I’ll take you until I get him.” You’re not sure what possess you but you’re not letting him take you anywhere. You swing the thick book at him, it connects with his arm with a solid thump. You both look at one another, the surprise evident on both of your faces.

You recover first and swing the heavy book again. Turning it at the last second to use the book’s hard spine instead of the cover. He manages to block a couple of the hits but when you start kicking too he doesn’t stand much of a chance.

“Mr. Stark we gotta go!” The kid calls from the door as you give the African American man a solid whack with the book. He’d jumped into the fray but somehow you were managing to hold your own.

That’s when he comes in. Looking pissed as hell.

“Stark!” He roars and for a second your heart leaps into your throat. Bucky’s got the kid by the back of the neck, and Sam has already hopped the counter to deal with Stark’s right hand, you think his name is Rhody. With one final whack of the book you manage to dodge Stark and scurry gratefully behind Steve.

“I told you he’d come.” Stark smirks.

“And you agreed to leave her alone.” Steve growls.

“They’re more like guidelines.”

“So I can go harass Pepper?”

“You wouldn’t dare.” Stark sneers and you look up at Steve in surprise.

“Then you leave her alone.” Steve growls, one of his hands wrapping around your wrist as he tucks you further behind him.

“We’ve got business to discuss.”

“Then you come to me. Not her.”

“I figured you’d be a bit more agreeable with her around.”

“You were wrong.” Stark folds his arms across his chest. “Buck, Sam, take Stark and his friends back to the bar. I’ll be there shortly to discuss whatever business Stark thinks we have.” Bucky nods then shoots you a wink, and you get a gap toothed smile from Sam before the two lead Stark and his gang away. It’s not until the five of them are out the door that Steve turns to you.

“Doll? You okay?”

“I don’t know. I’m still processing it all.”

“He didn’t hurt you did he?”

“No. I think I did more damage with that book.”

“I’m so sorry Doll.” He says gently cupping your cheek with one of his rough hands. Your heart jumps. You don’t want him to leave.

“You know how you can make it up to me?”

“Hmm?” He hums, his thumb brushing against your jaw.

“I’d like to date you again. These last three days have sucked.” Steve chuckles lowly and you continue, “Besides, you broke up with me to keep me safe and that clearly didn’t work.”

“I never wanted to break up with you in the first place.” He admits, “Stark had threatened you. I thought it would be enough to protect you if I broke up with you.”

“Then why did you have protection out there all week?”

“Just in case.” You scowl up at him and he laughs before pressing his lips to yours. “I’m sorry darlin’. But since distancing myself from you didn’t do shit I’d love to pick up where we left off.”

“I’d like that.” You whisper and he laughs softly before kissing you again.

“Come on Doll.” He says taking your hand. You’d follow him anywhere.
