The Light In Winter

The little girl keeps looking at him like he was holding the answers to all her questions like he was everything she has ever needed; trust, she was trusting him and that scares the soldier. She looked oddly familiar but this child wasnʼt more than a stranger to him, yet his arms ache to hold her and never let her go, the need to protect her at all coast was strong. The thought of finding a place to keep her safe, was in his mind ever since he picked her up, maybe the man in the bridge would help him. That base wasnʼt a place for little a child, how old was she four, maybe five? he needed to take her out of there while his thoughts were still his own. They keep walking in silence, her face a bit dirty and clothes too big, making her look even smaller. She looked up to him and smiled, a front tooth missing. He felt a little pressure on his left hand, the girl didnʼt hesitate to hold the metal hand, she didnʼt seem to bother or scared with the metal, in fact, this felt familiar to the soldier. “I knew you would come back to get me, daddy” Did she just call him daddy?

Set right at the end and after the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier and before Civil War, this is an original history, daughter and father relationship. I hope it doesn't flop and people found it interesting. English isn't my first language so if anyone was to help me out is welcome :)
