FINALLY A NEW CHAPTER it took me so long and im sorry bUT OKAY HERE IT IS
āDonāt you want some sleep?ā I asked. Steve looked up and shook his head.
āLike you said, Iāve slept for 70 years. I can miss some,ā he answered. A soft sigh left my lips. I sat down in the chair and turned it to face Steve.
āQuit being the salty ass bitch, please. I am trying to care for you, so Bucky doesnāt have to act like our fucking babysitter,ā I sighed. Steve looked at me for a few seconds, before shrugging. There was something on Steveās mind as well. Something made him unable to rest.
āWhatās wrong?ā I asked. There was a difference between disliking someone and not caring about a person. Even though I did not believe in what Steve stood for and what he did, he did do some good. And he deserved to be happy. It took Steve a few seconds to finally speak.
āHow can I possibly rest when Iām fighting my own friends. I know this is easy for you. You donāt really care about the other side of the story. The ābad guysā are our friends. Wandaās friends, Clintās friends. We love them and the government has pulled us apart. I love Bucky, and I would do this all over gain in a heartbeat. But the fact that Iām probably hurting the others with itā¦it pulls on me,ā. Steve had tightened his grip around the control wheel. He was suffering, like everybody on this plane. At this moment, the only person who felt the best was probably me. My life already had been a bitch, and this action I gotā¦I felt good. It felt like back home, as if I had a small family again.
āI dislike the crap out of you, just so you keep that in mind. But stop beating yourself up. Steve, they choose the side of the government. They did this to themselves. Just like you, you choose this. If they are your friends they still love you, even though they donāt support your choice. You are a dick, but right now you are doing a good thing,ā. Steve kept looking at me for a few seconds with a faint smile around his lips.
