Chapter Text
"I know what I did is something unforgivable. If I could erase it all and change what happen I would...but I can't. But believe me when I tell you this Tony. I'm sorry. From the bottom of my heart and the depths of my soul...I'm so so sorry. Whether you forgive me or not is your choice. I just want you to know how I feel"
Tony clenched his jaw. He didn't know whether to punch Bucky in the face or call one of his suits and blast him away.
Bucky hung his head in shame "I think I should just go"
Tony narrowed his eyes as he watched Bucky stand from the edge of Tony's bed. He looked broken. Like a scolded child who had been shamed for not being good enough.
It was then that for some reason Tony's mind went blank and the next thing he knew his hand reached out and grabbed Bucky's metal arm. Tony felt goosebumps form on his arm due to the coldness of Bucky's arm.
"Tony?"
Tony looked up at Bucky with tears in his eyes "I want to be mad at you. Just fucking livid...but I can't. What you did to me...to my parents. Well I should hate you to the core...but I can't. I just...I can't"
"I...I don't understand"
Tony stood from the edge of his bed and locked eyes with Bucky.
"Neither do I"
Then without another word spoke Tony caught Bucky's lips in a powerful kiss. Bucky's eyes shot wide open.
What the hell was happening right now?
*Let's Take It Back To The Start*
"I don't want him here. And I think you know why Rogers. You have some balls to even bring him here"
Steve sighed softly "Tony. He has nowhere else to go. He's my friend and I'm not letting him wander the streets. I can't do that to him. He's been there for me through everything and he's helped me out my entire life...I can't just abandon him"
"Do you not recall what he did to my parents. Or did you just forget that...then again you knew and never told me"
Steve inhaled a deep breath "Tony what happen with him and your parent's was not his fault. He wasn't in the right mind set. And I thought we agreed to let all that be put behind us"
"Why are we even discussing this? You're going to bring him here whether I say yes or not"
Steve didn't say a word. Tony was right. Whether he agreed or disagreed Bucky was not going to be alone somewhere of be roaming the streets when Steve was able to provide a place for him. He just couldn't do that to him. He couldn't live with himself if he did.
"Is he here?"
Steve didn't say a word and just nodded "Yes. He's in the living room"
Tony chuckled softly "I wish I could say I'm surprised"
"Look Tony I'm sorry but he's staying alright. Whether you agree to it or not"
"Then why are we still talking about this"
A pregnant pause came between the two.
"Then I think I should just go"
Tony didn't say another word and watched Steve turn his back to walk to the door.
"I'm letting you know this here and now. Keep him away from me. I will not be held responsible for anything that happens to him if he's left alone with me"
Steve glared "Threats aren't necessary Tony"
"Oh they aren't threats"
Steve clenched his jaw and walked out of Ton'y room. Tony waited few minuets and then walked out of his room and into the hall. Stopping where he was out of sight Tony watched as Steve walked up to Bucky who looked up at him with sad eyes.
"Don't worry Buck. Everything will be fine"
Tony huffed as he walked out of the hall and back into his room.
"This can't be happening"
