Chapter 2
Tony walked back into the room after Bucky had shifted. He however was still in his human form. Bucky should have guessed that he wouldn’t shift for him. Not that he was going to force or pressure Toni into shifting for him. Tony was known to never show his shifted form to anyone. Even the Roge Avengers had never seen it in all the years living with him. Colonel Rhodey apparently had seen it but never said anything about it. Well other than rubbing it in there faces. He often asked if Tony wanted to shift with him latter. To Steve's surprise Tony had agreed and cleared a place in his schedule for Colonel Rhodey. Bucky heard all about how steve was jealous latter.
“Good you shifted” Tony said when he saw Bucky “Now kittens will be snuggling all over you If there is an area that you don’t want them then cover it with your legs or head”
Bucky nodded and curled up a bit. He wasn’t sure where he wanted to keep safe from the kittens. When Tony walked over and placed a kitten on him, He jumped a bit. Bucky would be lying if he didn’t admit he was worried about losing control with such small creatures.
The kitten was small and fluffy. It was a brown cat, with blackish gray stripes. Bucky noticed that it was very similar to his coat.
“You’re fine. I chose her first because of her coat. They say that animals with a similar coat as the POW veterans it helps them to freak out.” Tony said reaching for another kitten. This time it was orange and this time Bucky didn’t need to be told the gender. He could see the balls on him, Both figuratively and realistically. As soon as the orange kitten was placed on the floor he was running around. The kitten didn’t care who or what he was bugging. Tony laughed as the kitten sniffed at an oil can, then ran away when he realized it wasn’t food. A part of Bucky wanted to get up and run after the kitten. He was starting to worry as the need to round the kitten up grew stronger. He almost didn’t notice that Tony grabbed two more kittens out of the box. Putting them down on the ground to wander around. This time they were black and white.
“You doing okay there Barnes?” Tony asked as they watched the kittens run around. The first kitten got up and ran after her siblings. Leaving Bucky to follow closely behind. He gave into the need to round them up. However, everytime he turned around he saw another new kitten running around. He didn’t understand how there was so many until Toni started laughing. Tony had been emptying the box when his back was turned. He would have been mad but then he saw another kitten running towards something dangerous. Soon all the kittens were out of the box and running around. Bucky was running from one end of the room to another trying to keep them in one area. When he turned around to see a black cat. Not a kitten but a fully grown cat. Bucky didn’t know why he was angry. The cat started walking closer to him. Then meowed loudly while sitting down. The kittens came running to the older kitten. Bucky laid down thankful that the kittens were safe. That didn’t mean that he was safe though. Soon the kittens started running all over him and playing with his tail. He could have sworn that the cat laughed at him.
