Summary
Bucky wakes up 9 years later - 2008. His boyfriend's cousin - Pepper Potts - is running Stark Industries with a 'dead' Tony Stark guiding her. Tony Stark is older now too. He's 30 years old to be exact. Not only is he helping Pepper but he's also in charge of SHIELD, running it and acting as a new vigilante in New York - The Iron Man. Bucky doesn't know how much crazier it can get until Tony comes home from a mission with the Avengers with Bucky's old lover - Steve Rogers. He showed up from the ice, preserved from the dead. New and old collide as Bucky is threatened to pick one or the other. But he can't. He can't chose and - - oh look, a team of superheros - the Avengers - are now properly thrown together to save the world from aliens. Why the hell did he ever wake up?

Dark and Cold

It was dark.

 

And cold.

 

Dark and cold.

 

It described everything.

 

He couldn’t find a better word for it.

 

He wanted out.

 

He wanted to get out.

 

But he felt frozen.

 

He was frozen.

 

How much more?

 

Why?

He just wanted to keep the world safe.

 

He just wanted to keep New York safe.

 

He didn’t want to be frozen alive.

 

It wasn’t supposed to go that way.

 

It wasn’t.

 

To be completely honest, he was supposed to die.

 

Maybe see his old partner Buck.

 

But he was supposed to die.

 

It didn’t go that way.

 

Steve didn’t know if it could get any worse.
