“I know..I mean of course I know how awful things were for…after the train. But at the end of the day, I’m glad you’re here with me,” Steve says softly, knowing that even if it wasn’t enough to make up for everything that happened, he wanted Bucky to know how much he appreciated having him here.

“Even if it’s just so that I’m not the oldest man in New York,” he smirks as he sets his mug down on the table to go get a bagel.

"I knew there was a reason that you kept me around, just know this I'm going to be throwing old man joke at you for as long as we're both alive." Bucky laughs and gives Steve a real smile, which he doesn't give to anyone but him now. Steve has been his friend for a long time and knows what makes him tick. He wouldn't have it any other way either

He shakes his head"You don't know either and I hope you never do because for you to know what it was like after that fall you would have had to have gone through it yourself. That's not something that I would wish on my worst enemy much less my best friend. The only things you know about are the things they put on paper, I was the one doing it all and it's taken it's toll."

"I know believe me I know and just like always you feel like you have to save the world from all those bullies and bad guys only now the bullies are armed with futuristic weaponry and some of them come from space. How do you get yourself into these messes Punk."

Tony comes over and wraps his arm around Steve's waist, bracing for his friends weight "Yeah, we got everything we came for and Nat reported that we even got some that we didn't expect." He helps Steve up off the ground and chuckles "You know, you're no light weight are you?"

"I know and I've heard about most of it too with all the war stories that you tell." Tony kneels beside him and looks at the bullet hole in his leg "The bullet is still in there, but we don't have time to dig it out now. It'll have to wait until we get back to medical. Are you okay to walk or do I need pick you up because I can do it in the suit with no problems."

Steve to your Bucky - @brooklyn-duo

Bucky laughs and looks at Steve with a smile on his face. Steve was the one person that could still make him do that " I'm not to shabby in the age department myself, punk. I never thought that I would make it this long either." He turns to the window and looks out over the city "I would have thought that the war would have killed me long before now or bailing you out of one of your jams. It might have been better if it had."
