part 2
Steve lay in bed, tossing back and forth that entire night. It’d been a few days since he’d seen his best friend go under once again. He knew T’challa and everyone had everything under control, but that didn’t stop him from having anxiety over everything going on.
the next morning,
“You look like shit,” was the first thing Steve heard when he woke up the next morning, of course coming from the one and only Sam.
Steve looked up from his coffee, rubbing his hand over his face. “I know,” is all he replied with. “You doing okay?” Sam took a seat next to Steve, sipping his coffee. Steve nodded. “Yeah, sam. It’s not like I’m never going to see him again. Besides, he’s gon-“ he cut himself off as Tony entered.
“Good-morning, S & S 2.0.” He gave a military salute. Sam nodded, watching as Tony joined them at the island. “So, hows everything doing for ya?” Tony asked, picking up an apple from the center of the island.
”You all are so worried about me. Romanoff was bothering me all day about it yesterday. Seriously, I’m fine.” Tony nodded. “Oh, no. I know you’re fine. I only ask ‘cause we all know you and Bucky are a thing. And y’know, lOnG distance relationships can be hard.”
Sam choked a little, spitting his coffee back into his cup. “Oh, my god.” He laughed, wiping his mouth.
”Last time I checked, long distance relationships required both of them to be in a non-frozen state.” Sam said, earning a laugh from Tony. He clapped Steve on the back. “I’m joking, it’s a JOKE.” He got up, dumping the rest of his coffee in the sink. “I’ll stop making jokes about you’re frozen fish stick of a boyfriend.”
Tony sputtered, “Oh my FUCKING god,” That even earned a smile from Steve. “Okay, okay. That was the last one. I’m sorry.” Sam glanced back at Steve, walking out of the room.
Steve lifted himself from his chair, exiting the room as well.
Just a few more weeks.
