He doesnt live here anymore (past rumlow/darcy present bucky/darcy)
1 the paper work
Bucky frowned watching Darcy re-read some papers she had received in the mail this morning.
"Baby doll...whats wrong?"He asked cautiously walking behind her and wrapping his arms around her.
"Nothin' James..Just unfinished paperwork."She shrugged hiding the papers from his sight.
"What kinda' paper work?"He asked suspiciously."None you gotta worry about okay sweetie?"She smiled kissing his cheek before moving to stand, which he let her do.
2 the wedding ring.
Bucky knew Darcy had a past.
But he never knew whos wedding ring was amongst her stuff...he just assumed it was a relatives that was given to her.
But as he silently watched his girlfriend of 1 year and 6 months stare at the white gold band, with a look of resentment and dissapointment he realised it ment more to her then she let on.
"Dar whats wrong?"He asked letting his presence be know.
"jesus christ bucky."She gasped clenching the ring in her fist and shoving her hand next to her and away from him.
"That bell i mentioned. we're getting it."She cursed slipping the ring in her pocket and walking away from him.
3 the late nights alone
One thing he didnt like about this very long week.
Was that Bucky started to notice things.
The fact that she was more guarded then usual.
That she hardly smiled around him anymore...like she felt guilty all the time.
And most of all.
The nights that he spent alone.waiting for her to come home, which she didnt untill early hours of the morning, stinking of ciggerets aand alcahole.
"Dar can you please just tell me whats going on?"HE sighed annoyed at all the secrecy.
"Not until its done.Then ill be happy.we can be happy."She replied sleepily
"Whats that mean doll?"He tried but she was already asleep.
4 the voice message.
He replayed it more then he should have.
At least 100 times, probably more.
"Hey.Sorry about last night.Come over home and i'll make it upto you okay? See you then. Love yah." a Mans voice said.
A very familier voice.
"How do i know you?"Bucky thought.
'what happend last night?'He thought playing the message again.
'What is she doing?'He internally growled.
5 The Man.
Bucky followd her as she left that night.
She led him all the way to a shotty run down apartment in harlem.
He followed her as silently as the black opps had taught him to be.
"You made it."A deep voice sighed in relief.Bucky looked to see a man with short black hair rap his arms around Darcy tightly.
And it felt like a kick in the gut.
Or heart.
Probably heart.
Especially when Darcy sighed, wrapping her arms around him too.
6 the truth
"Who is he?"Bucky asks as soon as Darcy enters their apartment the next morning.
"What?"She replies feigning innocence.
"The man you went to see last night."He snaps, really not in the mood to be played with.
"You followed me?"She asks in disbelief.
"Dont try spin this on me Darcell. Who is he!?"He snarls stepping closer.
"He...He's my husband James."She finally says and it feels like his hearts been ripped from his chest.
"Your married..and you didnt want to tell me about this why? "HE asked shaking his head.
"Because James..Brock and I we- We're married yes, but we havent been together for almost three years."She explained.
"Look.He was a soldier too...a seal in fact. on the sniper squad.four years ago, he came home...but it was like a big chunk of him was left in iraq and only the soldier came home.
We fought almost every day, and the days we didnt we just sat in silence..It was hell."She sighed sitting down on the sofa, Bucky walked to the arm chair infront of her and sat as well.
"i was with him for eight years bucky. we were highschool sweethearts.I tried for a year when he got home. but it wasnt the same.
He wasnt the same.He was sick.
He's been in rehab for the past year, which is why recently ive been out so much."She said digging around her bag and pulling out some papers.
"Whats that?"He asked cocking his eyebrow.
"Divorce papers.I've been tryna get him to sign all week. but he just wouldnt do it."she sighed throwing them on the coffee table between them, and he saw a neatly signed.
B.rumlow.
"Untill last night."She smiled sadly.
Bucky nodded and got up, walking over to her and tuggin her against him.
"I love you dar."He murmured in the crook of her neck.
"I love you too buck."She smiled softly.
7 the divorce papers.
Brock nursed his bourbon in silence when a small knock on the door was heard.
"You made it."He smiled widely wrapping his arms around the small girl, and boy did it feel like home when she returned the hug.
"I missed you Darcy."He grinned leading her insed.
"Sorry for the mess."He muttered kicking th empty pizza boxes out of sight.
"how ya been Brock?"She smiled lightly sitting down on his fouton.
"Oh, ya know.Good days and bad days."HE shrugged sitting next to her.
"I miss having you are Dar."He smiled putting his hand on her knee.
"I miss you too Brock."She whispered placing her hand on his.
"You know i get deployed next week right?"He smiled excitedly and her smile falterd slightly.
"I-i know honey."She nodded gripping his hand harder.
"Im pretty excited...All that training, finally be able to use it."He winked happily.
"Brock."She said standing and he frowned copying her action.
"Whats wrong sweetheart?"He asked confused.
"I-...I cant do this anymore."She sobbed letting the tears fall.
"Oh- sweetie its ok. ill be fine."He smiled wiping her tears.
"What if you wont be?"She asked already knowing the answer .
"SO what are yo tryna say?Its you or the army.cause you know what im gonna pick Darcy."He sighed folding his arms.
"Brock."She sighs digging around her bag.
"Sign these.please."She asks puttign them down on the table.
"What are they?"He asked confused picking them up.
"Just sign them.please.for me."She begged snatching them awy and he shruggs not thinking twice.
"I love you Dar, but this is my destiny!"He smied sadly.
"Just...Be safe for me okay brock."She sighed wrapping her arms around him.
"You know it."He nodded and she leaned back before pressing her lips to his.
"I never stopped loving you Rumlow."She nodded befor letting go and walking out.
"Ill see you when i get home Dar.It'll be fine I swear."Brock shouted as she close the door behind her.
"I wish you were."She sobbed placing the wedding ring on the ground and leaving.
