"Sweetheart I need you to put your coat on so that we can leave, we're already very behind on our schedule today. We still have to make dinner when we come home, I promised Steve we would try to cook tonight." Bucky rambled as he quickly slipped his boots on.
It had been kind of a hectic morning. Lots of errands to run, lots of things that needed to be done before a peaceful night in with Steve, who was coming back home after two weeks away.
However, when you woke up this morning, your head was pounding and it felt like heart was about to burst out of your chest. You were feeling uneasy as anxious thoughts were running through your head about everything and nothing at the same time. You didn't know why but sometimes you would have days like these where your anxiety got the best of you, and traumatic memories from your past felt like they occurred moments ago.
You needed a mental health day. There was no way you'd be able to handle a whole day of running errands with Bucky. Even getting out of bed this morning felt like an impossible task.
Of course if you told him how you were feeling, he'd be understanding, and he could help you feel better too. But you were in no mood to talk about your feelings.
It seems unfair but you were hoping Bucky would be able to just sense how you're feeling so you wouldn't have to vocalize how you felt. Normally Bucky would have noticed that you were feeling triggered, however, with it being a stressful and busy day, he was too busy trying to complete everything on his to-do list for today before Steve came home.
Unfortunately, with all these anxiety built up in your chest and how exhausted you were after helping Bucky clean the house, you were feeling more and more vulnerable. You felt so weak. So small. And Bucky had yet to notice.
For some reason, he assumed you were being difficult because of little things that happened throughout the day. First, you ran out of your favourite cereal for breakfast. Then, while you were picking up the dishes from the table, you spilled chocolate milk on one of your favourite sweaters.
There were some other small incidences but after each one Bucky assured you there is an easy fix, and that after today, things would be less chaotic.
Currently, he was trying to get you to slip your coat on but instead you just stood there in front of the front door, huffing with your arms crossed. Normally, Bucky would've laughed and called you adorable for trying to look intimidating but right now he was only getting annoyed since you were now an hour behind on your schedule.
"Baby please just listen to me, just this once. We can even have get my girl a new stuffie while we're out?" Bucky crouched down in front of you, trying to help you put your sneakers on. He could tell you were starting to feel kind of small, and he knew he might be able to bribe you with the promise of a stuffie.
Instead, you just shook your head and kicked him as he tried to put your sneakers on your feet for you. He groaned slightly in pain ad stood up immediately, all the patience having left his body at this point.
"Okay, put your shoes and your coat on right now, and meet me by the car in five minutes, understood?" He snapped. He was clearly very upset with your behaviour and he was not in the mood to deal with it right now.
You were frustrated and feeling even more little now, and you couldn't figure out what to do. All you knew was that you did not want to go out. You just wanted to stay home. Deciding to leave without saying a word, you picked up the sneakers and threw them at the front door before starting to walk away and towards the stairs. However, you didn't get very far as Bucky caught your arm and roughly picked you up in his strong arms. Judging from the expression on his face, he was certainly angry now if he wasn't before.
"What did I just tell you, huh? I'm not in the mood to deal with a brat today. When I put you down, you're going to pick up your sneakers and put them on before joining me outside by the car, is that clear?" He said sternly, while still trying not to lose his temper. Tears started to fill your eyes as soon as you heard his harsh tone towards you, and they almost fell as you noticed he nearly rolled his eyes at them, "Don't you dare with the tears, or I’ll give you something to cry about, doll."
After that, you couldn't help it anymore. Tears started rapidly streaming down your face as you sobbed uncontrollably in his arms. Bucky was shocked at first, he didn't realize you were this upset. He instantly began to apologize as he carried you over to the couch.
Whispering, sweet gentle words and apologizes while trying to calm you down was clearly not going to work this time. No matter how hard he tried to comfort you, you were inconsolable. You could feel your entire body shaking, and no matter how hard Bucky tried to calm you down, you just felt like your heart was on fire. It was getting more and more difficult to breathe. Moving your hand up to rub your chest gently, you tried to get yourself to slow down and work on your breathing. Bucky quickly caught on and carefully picked you up from his lap and put you down on the couch. He quickly got up, and sat down in front of the couch, kneeling in front of you.
"Hey, hey, it's okay. It's alright, baby. I've got you." He took your other hand in his, rubbing it gently while trying to get you to focus on him, "Just look at me, baby. I need you to look at me so I can help you, babygirl. I need you to focus on my breathing, okay? Do you think you can do that for me sweet girl?"
You looked at him for a second before carefully nodding, making him smile. He leaned up for a second to give you a quick kiss before settling back down and trying to help you again.
Focusing on Bucky, and trying to follow as him as he instructed you to take deep breaths with him. It seemed to be working, however, the anxious thoughts were still there. You didn't know how to tell Bucky though you knew he'd definitely wanna know what just happened.
"You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to," Bucky said, as if he just read your mind, "I mean if you want to talk about it then I'm here for you, but I don't want you to feel like you have to. I just wanna know whether or not you're okay, doll."
"I..." You looked away, feeling even more nervous than before. It felt like your body was screaming at you to tell him why you were acting this way and how you felt right now. But you just couldn't, "I just want to be alone for a bit. I don't want to go out, I know you need to get some errands done but I don't think I wanna come with."
"Fuck the errands. So what if we order in again? No big deal, who cares. I need to make sure that you're okay, I can't just leave you alone after that."
"But I'd rather be alone right now, I promise I'm alright." You muttered nervously.
"Sweetheart, are you feeling little at all? Do you think you need da-" Bucky tried pulling you onto his lap to hug you, but instead you pushed him away and interrupted him.
"I'm not. I wanna be left alone." You nearly snapped as you got off the couch. You didn't know why but you were feeling very angry all of a sudden. The anxiety was still there but the implication of being too weak, vulnerable, or small to handle this on your own was making you a little frustrated.
"Umm alright, sweetheart, if you're sure. I guess I'll see you in an hour then, doll?" Bucky got up from the couch awkwardly, scratching the back of his head as he felt slightly confused about what just happened. He knew it was a bad idea to leave you alone but he wanted to respect your decision and give you your space. He quickly left after that, and the second you heard him drive off in his car, you fell back on the couch and started crying once again.
You felt weaker than before and somehow the horrible feeling had reached your stomach making you feel a bit queasy. You couldn't help but wish that you hadn't asked Bucky to leave you alone. You wished that Steve was here too. You felt so small right now, you did not want to be alone. You curled up into a little ball on the couch and hoped that Bucky would be back soon.
After about ten more minutes of crying, you heard the front door open. You quickly looked up from the couch, hoping Bucky had decided to abandon his errands and come home to you instead. However, to your surprise, it seemed that Steve had come home a few hours early, He strolled into the living room towards you with a beaming smile on his face as he was excited to see his girl after being away for so long. Although, that smile disappeared pretty quickly when he noticed your tear-stained face.
"Oh no, pretty girl, what happened to you? Are you hurt?" Steve knelt down in front of you, looking at you with his concern-filled eyes. You quickly shook your head in reply, letting him know that you're not hurt. He could already tell that you were feeling little right now, and didn't seem to be up for much talking, "Bubba, where's Bucky? Why isn't he here with you right now?"
"He left...errands..." You mumbled, looking down at the ground, feeling guilty for practically kicking Bucky out of the house. You looked up at Steve and felt your guilt getting even worse when you noticed the shift in his demeanour. Watching him take his phone out of his pocket and angrily text someone.
"Baby come on, let's get you upstairs to bed for now, okay?" Steve said as he gently rubbed your back for a bit before getting up to you carry you upstairs in his arms. You heard his phone buzz in his pocket, and he stopped in his tracks to check and see what it was before continuing to walk upstiars again.
On the way to your room, you couldn't help but lean into Steve's touch making him smile slightly. He kissed the top of your head before gently putting you down on your bed.
You gulped, feeling guilty about receiving all these sweet attention from him while he clearly seemed mad at Bucky for leaving you alone when you told him what happened downstairs. Although, it was you who asked him to leave you alone, "Daddy please don't be mad. I asked him to leave."
Steve frowned at your words before shaking his head in reply, "Sweet girl, I'm not angry. I'm sorry I made you feel that way but I promise I'm not, okay?"
You slowly nodded in response, still unconvinced. Steve sighed in response and began gently rubbing your back as he spoke, "I'm not angry, I'm just a little upset that Bucky wasn't here while you were feeling this way, pretty girl."
You gulped before answering him in a quiet tone, "I asked him to leave me alone."
"Why would you do that, pretty girl?" Steve asked, although he already knew what happened as Bucky already texted him and explained the situation to him. He was upset that Bucky left, but he wasn't angry once Bucky explained that you asked him to leave. Now, he was just upset that you were all alone while feeling this way.
"Was feeling anxious...didn't wanna talk about it...still don't. Don't really know why I asked him to leave. I'm sorry..." You said, sniffling near the end of your sentence as the tears started flowing down your cheeks once again.
"Oh my sweet girl, it's okay, it's alright. There's no need to apologize, okay? Sometimes feelings like anxiety, or even sadness, make us do silly things. It happens to all of us, even me and Bucky." He carefully wiped your tears away before leaning down to kiss your forehead, "I'm right here, okay? I've got you, sweetheart. You just get some rest, and when Bucky comes home, we'll have a nice night in with some of your favourite pasta and whatever movie you want to watch, okay?"
You smiled and nodded your head in response. Steve smiled back at you and leaned down to kiss you again before getting up to pick up your favourite stuffie for you to cuddle with as you took your much needed nap.

brokenpromisesau! imagine bucky coming home from a mission/work trip and hes so exhaustedd he goes straight to bed but bby tries to wake him because she really missed him🥺🥺🥺
bucky coming home exhausted after a week and reader being excited to see him (blurb for broken promises)
bucky finally comes back from a week long work trip late at night. to say his girl missed him was an understatement
when she realizes that bucky is finally home, she runs over to their room to wake him up
but being the meanie he is, steve won't let her
“He needs to sleep, pretty girl. You can see him later, let’s get you some breakfast in the mean time.”
she pouts at him and turns back around to wake him up, but steve quickly picks her up and drags her down to the kitchen
he thought maybe some food might help her feel less cranky. boy was he wrong
“Hey, hey! Stop that right now.” steve snaps at her, watching her throw the spoon on the ground
“I hate this! I’m a big girl! I don’t wanna eat this!” she whines and picks up the bowl of oatmeal to throw it on the ground
steve would take the bowl from her before she could throw it though and just glare at her, making her shift uncomfortably in her seat
he would effortlessly pick her up and putting her down on his lap. he'd be holding her arms down while trying to force her to eat her breakfast.
“Wan’ dada!” she would just keep crying loudly for him, spitting out the oatmeal every time steve tried to feed her
bucky would eventually wake up from all loud noise and get out of bed to find out why his babygirl is crying
“What’s going on out here?” he'd walk into the kitchen and she would instantly try to push steve away to go to bucky
“Dada! Wan’ dada! Daddy being mean!” she would keep crying till steve finally brings her over to bucky
she'd lift her arms up for him to pick her up, and he'd smile at her and quickly scoop her up in his arms
steve would just roll his eyes and walk out of the kitchen, mumbling something on his way out
“Aw, my babygirl missed me, huh?”
she'd be resting her head on his shoulder, breathing in his scent that she missed so much. smiling so much because he was finally home
“My dada”
making my heart melt 🥺🥺

hiii lovey!! do you think in the brokenpromisesau they ever give her the silent treatment like after she's bad or keeps saying she doesn't need them and they like start ignoring her or just keeping their distance and she kinda breaks and goes to them?
Tumblr media
the silent treatment (broken promises drabble!)
yesss they would definitely do that if she's acting up and she'd be so confused at first but she'd try to get their attention to see what happens
“Dada up, please?”
bucky would feel so bad saying no but he knew steve would be pissed at him if he gave in
“Not right now, sweetie. Daddy has to wake up early for work tomorrow morning.”
“Oh…um okay.”
and then the next morning she'd go to their room and try to wake up steve for morning cuddles
he would just hum in response but then get up to go take a shower and leave her on the bed
she'd sit there pouting and turn to bucky but he'd just pretend he was sleeping because he knew if he looked at her sad face he'd break in an instant
eventually when they sit down for dinner and bucky and steve only talk to each other she'd start crying and go to her room
bucky would quickly get up to run after her but steve wouldn't let him
"Trust me, she needs this."
they would go see her at bedtime and she'd try to hug bucky but he wouldn't let her.
"Sorry, doll, I gotta get to bed."
she'd start bawling her eyes out and they would quickly comfort her
“P-please, please I’m sorry! I-I- I didn’t mean to be bad! Please, I’m sorry!”
steve would quickly pick her up and hug her tightly “hey, hey, it’s alright! sweetheart, calm down it’s okay!”
"no you're mad at me" she'd keep crying in his arms
“doll, come here. come on, come to dada, pretty girl.” bucky would eventually take her from steve and gently rub her back to calm her down
“No one is upset with you, okay? Princess, you said you wanted to be a big girl. We just listened to you, babygirl, it doesn’t mean we don’t love you.”
“D-don’t wanna be a big girl. Want you…” she'd mumble, feeling a bit embarrassed
“Aww is that right, pretty baby? Huh? Did someone miss being babied by her Dada? Miss Daddy calling you by sweet little nicknames?” bucky would smirk at her, teasing her to see her blush
“Mhmm I think someone likes being our little girl, huh? Aww is babygirl feeling cranky because she didn’t get her morning cuddles?” steve would join in and tease her as well
“We told you, sweetness. We know what’s best for you. You believe us, now?”
ughhh they're so evil. but honestly dark!stucky just hits different.
guys please send in some christmas/holiday requests i'm really in the mood to write some

Hey there! I love your writing and am looking forward to seeing more from you! How would Stucky (Broken Promises AU) react to their baby wanting to go outside to play in the snow? <3 Would they worry about her getting sick or running away? I forget if they allow her to go to parks or outside at all tbh. Anyways, hope you have an amazing week and Happy Holidays!!!

warnings: soft!darkstucky x little!reader, angsty but mostly fluff
𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐬 (𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬)
a/n: so i'm gonna try to write a few more drabbles/blurbs/fics today especially the holiday themed ones! send in any requests you may have and I'll try to answer them!
Bucky sighed as he shook his head once again at her request to go outside to play in the snow.
“But why not?” She mumbled, pouting at his response.
“Because I said so.” He said, looking at her sternly.
She looked away from him, and looked back out the window again. She knew she shouldn't push it but she was excited to play in the snow, “But look at the snow, it’s so pretty. Just wanna play in it for a bit.”
He sighed while looking down at her, “I know you do, doll, but we can’t have you getting sick. Or trying to run away…” he mumbled that last part so she wouldn't hear him.
“But daddy promised he would let me!”
When she woke up that morning, she was so excited to play outside in the snow once she looked out her window and saw their backyard. She asked Steve that morning and he promised her he would let her play outside for a bit, maybe even at the park.
Bucky was getting tired of saying no to his little girl, “Well he didn’t talk to me about it, and I already said no. I’m not changing my mind, go upstairs to your room.”
She quickly got up and ran upstairs to her room, tears streaming down her cheeks as she sobbed loudly. She threw herself onto the pile of stuffies on her bed, before curling in, hugging her knees to her chest. Eventually she got up to play with some of her stuffies that were next to the chair in the corner. She heard her door open but she was too upset to turn around to see who it was.
“Hi, pretty girl. What are you up to?” Steve sat down next to her, crossing his legs.
“Playing.” She mumbled quietly, not wanting to talk.
“What are you playing, sweetheart.” He gently brushed the hair away from her face.
“Just playing…” She mumbled again, turning away from him.
He sighed and pulled her towards him before wrapping his arms around her, “Can I at least get a hug, sweetheart? I haven’t seen you all day.” She shrugged and turn around to hug him back. He noticed how sad she looked, and he instantly felt guilty, “What’s with the pouting, sweetheart? Still upset with Dada?”
“You promised…” She mumbled, resting her head on his chest.
Steve sighed and picked her up, “I know I did but I should’ve talked to Dada about it first. I know I promised to take you to the park, but how about the backyard for now? We can still play with the snow.” He took her over to her window, and she looked outside at their backyard. It wasn't the park but at least it was something.
“Will you play with me?” She looked up at him, with a small smile.
He smiled back, and carried her over to her bed before gently putting her down, “Of course, sweetheart. All three of us can play.”
She started fidgeting with her thumbs nervously, “Will dada let me go outside?”
“You leave that up to me, pretty girl. How about you start getting dressed? It’s very cold outside, we gotta make sure you’re wearing something really warm, okay?” He gently kissed her forehead, then left her room to walk downstairs to talk to Bucky. He walked over to the kitchen and noticed Bucky chopping up some vegetables for dinner.
“B—”
“No.”
“Just hear me out—”
“I already said no.”
“We won’t go to the park, okay? Just the backyard for now. She won’t go anywhere.” Steve sighed, walking over to him and placing his hand on Bucky's shoulder.
“It’s not just that, it’s freezing outside, she’s gonna get sick.” Bucky argued, putting down is knife.
“No she won’t, she’ll be bundled up in multiple layers so she doesn’t get cold. You need to relax, she’ll be fine.” Steve rolled his eyes, walking over to the fridge to get a drink, “I honestly think the park is a great idea.”
Bucky looked up at him with a shocked look on his face. A month ago they had to get Wanda's help just to make her wanna stay with them, and now he wants to take her outside and possibly ruin that progress? “Really? And what if someone sees her there? She may not wanna leave but if we bump into somebody that she might recognize then what if she tries to leave again, or they try to take her from us?”
Steve sighed, taking her sippy out of the cupboard and started to fill it up with juice, “I know, but how long are we gonna live like this? She needs to go outside, and not just the backyard. I’m sick of this. We brought her here so that we could take care of her and keep her happy, but she’s miserable just sitting here in the house all day. Aren’t you sick of it too?”
“It’s not like I haven’t thought about, and yeah it would be fun to take her out, take her to the park or show her off to our friends,” Bucky grumbled, sitting down at the table. He wanted to take her outside, go places with her, show her his favourite places in Brooklyn, but he was terrified something bad would happen, “I’m just scared something will happen.”
“Nothing is gonna happen, we’ll go for an hour, that's it. If she wants to continue playing then we can always come back to the house and play in the backyard. She’ll love it, come on.” Steve reassured him, as he screwed the lid back on her sippy.
“Alright, fine.” Bucky sighed, knowing Steve was probably right.
“Daddy, I’m ready…” She walked the stairs, excited to show Steve her outfit but quickly started to feel shy when she realized Bucky was there too.
“You look adorable, sweetheart. Is that the sweater Natty got you last week?” Steve walked over to her, handing her her sippy, “You look very nice, sweetheart, very cozy.”
“Thank you, Daddy…” She mumbled and took the cup from him, taking a small sip from it.
“You look very pretty, doll.” Bucky walked over to her, picking her up in his arms. She quickly mumbled a thank you, before looking away from him.
“You’re gonna be the prettiest girl at the park, huh?” Bucky smiled, kissing her forehead.
“The park?” She quickly looked up at Bucky and then at Steve. Did that mean Steve had convinced him to let her go to the park?
Bucky chuckled at he reaction, “Did you not wanna go anymore, angel?”
“No I wanna go!” She quickly replied, “But you said I couldn’t…”
“Well I guess Steve is right, it might be fun for you. But we gotta make sure you’re wearing another sweater on top of this and then your jacket, okay?" He put her back down on the floor, "We gotta bring your mittens and hat, oh and don’t forget to wear your boots.”
Steve rolled his eyes and grabbed his coat off the rack, “Alright, Bucky. You go get dressed and we’ll meet you in the car, okay?”
Bucky looked at him sternly, “Another sweater on top, Steve. I’m not kidding.”
“Okay, okay. Just go get dressed and come back quickly.” Steve reassured him before practically forcing him up the stairs, “You excited, sweetheart?” She quickly nodded, handing Steve her sippy to go upstairs to put on another sweater.
Once everybody was dressed in warm clothes, they headed to the park. They played there for about an hour until their little girl started to feel a bit cold. They decided it was a good time to go home, especially before it got too dark. They made their way back to the car, as Bucky was holding her in his arms.
“Thank you for taking me to the park! I had so much fun!” She kissed his cheek before resting her head on his shoulder.
“Oh yeah? Did you wanna go again sometime, doll?”
“Yes, please!”
They finally made it home, and quickly ran inside the house to warm up. Bucky helped her change into a pair of warm PJs while Steve made some hot chocolate. Bucky took her back downstairs to the living room, just as Steve walked in with her cup of hot cocoa.
“Here you go, pretty girl. One hot chocolate with whipped cream and sprinkles.” Steve walked over with the cup in his hand, as Bucky sat down with her on his lap.
“Thank you, daddy!” She tried taking the cup from him, but Bucky quickly took it before she could.
“It’s really hot, be careful, doll.” He held onto the cup for her, lightly blowing on it to make sure it wasn't too hot for her before letting her take a sip.
“Are you still feeling cold, sweetheart?” Steve sat down next to them, picking up the remote to turn on a movie.
She took a sip from the cup before answering him, “I’m okay now, the fireplace is helping.”
“Alright, sweetheart. Just finish your drink and then we can cuddle up, okay?” She quickly nodded at him and turned her attention to the screen to see what movie Steve was going to put on.
“How about a Christmas movie tonight?”
“Can we watch a barbie one? The Christmas carol one, please?” She asked, hoping he'll out on one of her favourite Christmas movies. He searched for it on the TV, and she quickly pointed at the screen when she spotted it. He clicked the 'play now' button, and they turned in for a cozy night in.

Hello! Congratulations on the 1K, I saw that it is the last week of the celebration and it occurred to me to send my request. It just occurred to me (obviously daddy stucky x little reader), the reader and her daddys were in the park enjoying some time with food and all the picnic, but while stucky were organizing everything, little reader got distracted because of a butterfly, suddenly someone tries to take her.
🌻💞
📍extension/drabble of broken promises where reader bumps into someone who recognizes her
a/n: Hii lovely, thank you so much!! I'm assuming you're referring to when they took her our to play in the snow, so this is kind of an extension or a drabble of that, like what would happend if they took her out a second time and this time someone actually recognized her. i hope you enjoy it bubs <3

Tumblr media
It's been a few weeks since they took her our to the park, and she'd been begging them to take her out once again. They didn't say no but they didn't say yes either. They were still a bit concerned about taking her out in public, especially since the weather was starting to get better. Every now and then, they'd catch her sitting by the window, sadly staring at the backyard. The sunshine pouring in through the window, beaming on her face.
Bucky felt horrible for making her suffer like this but at the same time he was afraid to lose her. He was too nervous to take her out again. Steve was nervous too but he couldn't bear to watch his girl suffer like this anymore. He convinced Bucky that maybe they could go for a picnic somewhere a bit far away from home. That way they could keep an eye on her, and the chances of them running into somebody they knew would be low.
Bucky reluctantly agreed and started searching for spots that were at least an hour or two away. Steve helped her get dressed, excited to see the look on her face when he told her the plan. She instantly wrapped her arms around him and pinky promised to be good.
After driving for an hour, they finally made it a beautiful park that relatively empty and quiet. They unloaded everything from the car, picking up the picnic basket, drinks, and a blanket.
Bucky looked over at his little girl, who looked eager to help, "Alright sweetheart, how about you hold onto the little basket for me?"
She quickly nodded, taking the little basket from him that was filled with some snacks and drinks. Bucky knew she would want to help but he didn't want her to get hurt or get too tired, so he found a mini picnic basket for her and filled it up with small things so the basket wouldn't be too heavy and she would still be able to help.
Once they settled on a spot, Bucky and Steve began setting everything up. Steve grabbed the blue blanket and set it down on the ground, before picking up the big picnic basket and setting it down on one of the corners of the blanket. Bucky helped his girl put her basket down on the other corner of the blanket before he began helping Steve take all the food out and set everything else up.
She stood there waiting for them to finish but then she started to get bored. She looked around and noticed that no one else was around. They purposefully chose this spot for this reason. They knew it would be more private and quiet.
Though they were surprised that such a beautiful place would be so quiet and empty, especially in this nice weather. There were many plants and trees scattered around the gorgeous landscape. Beautiful, vibrant flowers adorned the bushes as a pleasant breeze was blowing constantly. It was truly an enchanting place.
She noticed the gorgeous flowers while they were walking around to find a spot. She wanted to pick some up for the boys and surprise them. It was her way of saying thank you for bringing her here. She looked back at them and noticed that they were still trying to set everything up. They wouldn't mind her leaving for just a second right? She wasn't going far, just a few steps to the flowers and then she would be right back.
Looking back at them one more time, she turned around and happily skipped off towards the flowers. Once she'd reached them, she couldn't decide which ones they would like the most. Before she could make a decision, she felt someone's hand on her shoulder. Instantly, her heart started beating really fast. She was sure it was either Bucky or Steve, and she was gonna get in trouble. To her surprise though, it wasn't them.
It was a woman with long brunette hair who looked a bit older than her. For some reason, the woman looked familiar, like they'd met before. The strange woman pulled her into a tight yet comforting hug, and she felt herself hug her back.
"I can't believe you're alive! They- fuck they told me you had died! I knew they were lying but no one would listen to me!" The woman mumbled before pulling away to look at her, "I thought I'd lost you too, I thought you left me too but you didn't. You're alive and you're okay."
Even though her embrace was comforting and she felt like she had met this woman before, she couldn't help but panic at the words coming out of her mouth. Who was she? Why was she talking about her being dead?
"W-who are y-you?" She stuttered, pulling away from the mysterious woman.
However, her question had left the woman in shock. Her eyes filled up with tears as she tried to hug her once again, "God what did they do to you? Do you not remember me?"
"N-no, get away from me! Daddy! Daddy, come here!" She called out panicking as the woman wouldn't let her go.
Bucky and Steve quickly got up, racing over to her as soon as they heard her cries. Their eyes widened as they noticed the mysterious woman who was holding her in her arms. Bucky looked back down at his girl, and his heart clenched at how scared she looked. He didn't waste any time in ripping her away from that woman's grip, and taking her back to their spot. He gently rubbed her back, and attempted to shush her cries as he watched Steve deal with the mysterious woman.
"Dada, who was she?" His girl mumbled, trying to look back at her but Bucky wouldn't let her.
Instead of answering, he gently placed her down on the blanket and handed her a stuffie. Then he picked up her sippy and unscrewed the lid, looking back at her every now and then to make sure she couldn't see what he was doing. After a few minutes, he picked her up and handed her the sippy, before walking back with her to the car.
She finished her drink long before they got to the car, and she couldn't tell why but she was starting to feel very sleepy. Bucky helped her get in the back before he got in the front seat, and waited for Steve to come back.
Steve showed up a few minutes later, with all of their picnic stuff. He quickly placed everything in the trunk before getting in the passenger seat. He looked back at his girl and noticed she was asleep.
Bucky looked out the window, making sure no one was around before pulling out of the parking lot. He looked back at Steve once he got on the road. Steve looked back at him and nodded, "It's done. I took care of her."
