It's been days since you moved in with the Avengers. They showed you their warm hospitality. Tony even gave you your own room, and that is beside Wanda's room. He knew that every month, women go through hell with their periods, so he felt like he should put you beside Wanda.
Wanda was already close to you since Tony asked you to evaluate her when she was new to the team. Steve became 'the dad' to you, he was constantly asking if you were okay or if you're okay with the room you have and sometimes you had to place both of your hands on your hips to convince him you're alright. He'll just respond with that innocent bright smile of his you adore so much. Sam was the normal older brother that everyone could have, sarcastic, straight-forward and loves to tease. Vision, well...he's Vision, not much to say. Apparently, Scott stayed with his friends while Clint got back to his family and Rhodey went to his family's house.
The team were still broken, Nat's staying low and trying to avoid to Tony, Thor was in Asgard (obviously unaware of what happened), Bruce was still missing. The trust was broken, and it was quite bothering you, a lot.
Bucky was different though, he mostly isolate himself and he choose which person to talk to. Bucky was comfortable with Steve, had a love-hate relationship with Sam, Wanda with a brother-sister relationship since they were both experimented on by HYDRA. He's definitely aloof with Tony, he was still 100% percent guilty with the death of Tony's parents.
The Sokovia accords were requested to modify since it put a huge line between the pros and cons to the said agreement. The trial for Bucky's innocence started, it was Ross who presented the case to the court. Many political assassinations had been directed to him and every 'Winter Soldier' reports were enough as an evidence against him. Half of the Jury considered the 'brainwash' activity to him, showing that he was controlled to do every assassinations and killings.
Wanda woke you up at 7 in the morning, telling you that Steve and the others were leaving to meet Ross. You immediately went out of your room in your rose gold coloured silk nightgown, Wanda called out to you but only smirked to herself knowing you won't hear the end of it.
Steve was talking to Tony when you entered the common room, a smile appeared on his face when he saw you, out of breath from running.
"Wanda said, you'll meet with Ross." You spoke with your morning voice, making Tony turning around to face you. You stood up properly before walking towards the two gentlemen and that's when you saw Vision in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for the team. He smiled when he saw you looking at him.
"We are, why are you running?" He asked, obviously amused with your crazy bed head and sleepy look, not to mention the previous frantic expression you had on.
"I thought I might be late to say 'good bye' and 'good luck'."
"Oh honey, that's sweet but you better cover up. As much as I love the view, Cap isn't going to like what's happening inside my head right now." Tony interjected, reminding you of what you're currently wearing.
Your hands flew up to cover your chest and when you're about to scream at his joke, Wanda suddenly showed up beside you and offered a silk robe in her hand.
"I believe this is yours." She said with her thick yet soothing Russian accent. You accepted the smooth silk robe before slipping it on.
"Happy now, Tony?" You asked before glancing at Steve who had his arms crossed. Tony took a glimpse at the brooding Steve and decided against saying something in response to what you said. "Oh Steve, before I forgot, are you going to include my reports on Bucky? I think Ross needs to see the development in him."
"Yes, we will." Steve replied with a big smile on his face. "How was he?" He asked, making Tony smirk. They looked like they knew something you didn't. You squinted your eyes at them and that's when they broke in a fit of laughter.
"He was really doing good, he's using the gym longer than he was previously." Steve remarked when you heard Wanda chuckled behind you. You looked back at her and she just laughed at your confused expression. You were about to retaliate when Vision spoke up, informing that the breakfast was served. You silently thanked him for interrupting like that and smiled at the glorious expressions of the team when they were about to eat breakfast. Bucky and Sam entered the common room, Sam in a nice crisp shirt and black slacks contrast to Bucky's fitted gym outfit. You all sat down and enjoyed the pancakes, bacon and eggs that Vision cooked for the team.

When it was time for the rest of the team to leave, you wished them all a 'good luck' and 'have a safe trip'. Tony also received a warning from you; "Don't be a cocky bastard, Tony.", was all he got from you. They left in a quinjet; Vision, Wanda, and you waved at them while Bucky just stared at the departing quinjet. You four went back to the common room in comfortable silence, with casual glances from each other and small smiles. Bucky excused himself back to his room, he was isolating himself every time he became the topic of the talk. Seeing him that way makes your heart clench in a painful way, it looks like you're not helping him at all. Wanda patted your back and reassured you when she saw your distressed look.
She led you to the orange set of couch and decided to have a word with you. She sat down on the single couch while you sat across from her, in front of the chess board. Wanda gave you a small smile before clearing her throat, Vision sensed that it was a sign for him to join the talk. He sat comfortably next to you.
"Y/n, do you need to say something?" Wanda started.
"I-I don't have, why'd you ask?"
"It looks like you're hurt when Bucky went back to his room."
A long silence overtook you but Vision and Wanda were patient enough to wait for the words. "Am I doing my job right?" You asked. Wanda cocked her head to the side.
"You are. He's usually like that whenever Steve leaves. It's like he's the only person who trusts in him."
You looked down at your intertwined fingers before speaking up. "I trust him."
"We all do." Vision finally said something. You looked back at him and he smiled. "You're doing a great job, Miss Y/n. We all know it."
You looked back and forth from Vision to Wanda and smiled at their uplifting words. "As Wanda like to say: spirit's lifted." You three chuckled at the Wanda's favorite saying.

You knocked at Bucky's door and still fighting with yourself whether to knock again or just leave. You were about to take your steo away from the door when it opened. Bucky showed up with his hair dishevelled and his face looked like he saw something terrible, which most likely he had another nightmare.
His eyes widen a little when he realized it was you who knocked at his door.
"James, you okay?" You reached out and placed your hand on his cheek. You were one of the few he only let to touch him. He still startled at the contact but he relaxed immediately at the warmth and the softness of your hand.
"No...I had—I had another nightmare." He mumbled, his voice was hoarse and a pained expression was still painted on his face. You rubbed your thumb on his cheek bone before leading him inside his own room. You sat down on his bed and he sat next to you. His heat was comforting as it radiated off of him and shared it to you.
"Okay. James, do you remember your full name?"
"My name is James Buchanan Barnes."
"But everyone calls you..."
"Bucky," He replied shortly. His brows were furrowed, his face was curtained by his long dark hair, his lips were pursed and red but his eyes were focused solely at you.
"Good...do you know who I am." You asked, a bit hesitant at first but you're itching to know what he thinks about you.
"You're Y/n, you're here to be my therapist but you treated me as a friend and as a part of the team. I'm glad they got you,"
Your cheeks felt hot right after he finished his sentence. He was glad that you were there for him when he had none, even Steve. Bucky took your hand from your lap and tightened his hold of it before he smiled up at you.
"And the woman who always made me watch cartoons."
"You loved it." You giggled.
"I did." He replied, his eyes were soft now and he seemed to relax a bit.
"Tomorrow, you have to tell me what nightmare you had tonight, okay? I'm not gonna force you to tell me something right now. Go to sleep and have a rest." You spoke softly. The hands around your own little ones tighten a bit before letting it go. You stood up from the bed and when you were halfway through the door, Bucky's cut through the silence.
"Thank you, Y/n."
"You're welcome, Bucky and good night." You lastly said before closing the door.
"Good night, моя роза."

"James, I told you, Spongebob is a sea sponge not a dishwashing sponge." You bickered with a goofy smile on your smile.
"But he looks like the sponge we use! Steve, you agree with me right?" Bucky turned to his laughing friend and asked for his support about the topic. Steve only raised both of his hands.
"Buck, Y/n is not gonna stop unless you agree with her but I do agree with you, he looks like a dishwashing sponge."
"Ugh! Old farts, I'm done with you two." You jokingly said before reaching for the remote. You switched the channel and it landed on a channel that was playing something familiar. It was playing a scene where a man was kissing the navel of the woman as he started to pull her pants down. It took you long enough to realize it was 'Fifty Shades of Grey.'
The two gentlemen in either side of you started to blush, including you. 'Tony should not see this.' You were about to change the channel when the voice someone you feared rang.
"I didn't know you three loved watching erotica. I thought you only watch cartoons." Tony was smirking and it was purely teasing.
You dropped the remote and stood up from the couch. "I didn't do it. It's an accident, I promise. We-we were watching cartoons...and..."
"I get it, Y/n, you wanted to show the oldies here the movies of this generation."
"No, it's not that...Uhh.." You trailed off when Tony pointed to Steve and Bucky who were bashfully focused to the screen. The camera panned to the couple having sex under the ceiling mirror.
"Looks like they liked it." Tony remarked.
"Oh no..." You facepalmed yourself before shutting the tv off. "Shut up Tony." You beamed at him, knowing you made the two super soldiers shift in their seat and their faces flushed red.
" Uhm, excuse me for a while." Steve muttered before leaving his seat and walked to god knows where.
"I'll be in my room." Bucky said, next he pulled his henley lower before walking back to his room, his head hung low.
Tony was laughing hard at the bashful super soldiers and patted your back. You don't know if you should be proud of yourself for making the two gigantic men excuse themselves to be alone. You shook the thought of them relieving themselves for such a small amount of time they were exposed to those kind of scene but you realized that they came from an era that was way more conservative than now.
"Congratulations, Y/n. You gave them a boner."
"I didn't. It was the movie."
"Still—"
"Ugh shut up Anthony!" You exclaimed as you walked past him.
