Pairings: Bucky Barnes x Reader, past!Natasha Romanoff x Reader, past!Steve Rogers x Bucky Barnes, Wanda Maximoff x Sam Wilson
Summary: It's time for you and Bucky tell Sam and Wanda about your decision. Also you need to talk to Nick Fury and talk things out, hoping for the best.
Author's Note: Sooo, I tried to right a small chapter for the time gap between my first and third chapter. It's a bit awful and lazy, next week week (I'll give a lil spoiler) we'll meet the house and the neighborhood. I wasn't feeling really good to write something more, but hope you like it.

Tumblr media
It's been 5 days since you accepted Bucky's offer, to start a new life with him. At first you and Bucky where discussing where will you live. You suggested to buy an apartment at Brooklyn, but he rejected the moment the suggestion hit the table. He didn't want to be back to the place where he grew up. He didn't want to return to his past. Didn't want to start his new life based on how he used to live.
"Can we have a house with a big kitchen? Ohh Buck, it'll be really nice to have a huuuge kitchen and try so many recipes freely, with so much space to work on." You said dreamily while standing on your elbows to watch Bucky. He turned his gaze from the ceiling to you with a smile in his face.
You were in his room daydreaming about your future life. You're laying next to him being excited about your plans. He laughed and pulled you out of your thoughts. "What? Why are you laughing?" You smiled at him.
"I'm just thinking that if Sam watched us cook with aprons. We wouldn't hear the end of it." He laughed.
"Oh my god, you're soooo right. He'll tease us 'till the day we die." You both laughed again and you suddenly stopped and gasped.
"OH MY GOD, SAM!"
"What about him?" He questioned, confusion covering his face.
"We need to tell him that we want to leave." His smile left his face and his eyes dropped to his hands. Even though the two boys were always fighting, they were the closest and best friends. Bucky didn't know how Sam would take it.
"We need to talk to him." He finally said.
"What? Like, right now?"
"No I think he is already asleep. Tomorrow morning. The sooner the better!"
"Yeah, yeah, you're right." you sighed and curled to his side.
"He won't be very happy, will he?" You both returned your gaze to the ceiling a worried look on both of your faces.
"I don't know, doll. I don't know."
~~~~
The next morning you knocked on Bucky's door, still worry over your features. He opened slowly having the same emotions as you. "Ready?"
He softly sighed "as ready as I can be."
"We have to, Buck." You took his hand on yours and pulled him out of his room.
"I know, I know." He sighed again and you started walking towards the living room.
"Sam!" You shouted and he popped his head from the couch.
"Hello Cinnamon, hello Tinman. What's up?" You giggle at your nickname while Bucky glared at him. Sam liked to call you Cinnamon because you putted cinnamon everywhere, from aromatic candles to coffee dressing.
"We um...wanted to talk to you about something." You said hesitantly.
"Of course, what is it about?"
You moved further and sat down next to him and Bucky sat behind you, staying close to you. "Me and Bucky were thinking umm...we were umm...thinking..." You nervously said playing with your fingers not wanting to look into his eyes.
"Guys. You are worrying me, what's wrong." Sam said worry all over his face.
"No, no nothing is wrong...we just kinda thinking..." Bucky trailed off and then you took over.
"Me and Bucky were thinking about to retire and live a normal life." you stated with one breath closing your eyes and opening them to see a bit confused Sam.
"What do you mean?".
"Sam, we won't lie to you, we're both really tired of this Avenging life. And after our losses we are falling apart more and more. We appreciate all your and Wanda's help, but unfortunately is not enough. We are trying really hard to recover. But all this fighting is keeping us behind. Reminds us -and most certainly me- of the past. We can't keep living like this. We LOVE working with everyone here but it's not doing us any good. We would really, REALLY, appreciate it if you at least consider our retirement and talk things out with Fury."
You were staned by Bucky's words. You didn't expect him to take control of the conversation. And it was a really happy surprise.
"Wow, Buck. I forgot you could talk so much" Sam laughed. "Guys, I understand that your mental health is not stable and of course I noticed your struggle at your latest missions. I'll admit I was thinking to tell Fury give you some days off and retirement hit me like a truck." You both looked at his smiley face, when he turned his gaze behind you and you saw Wanda, who was coming slowly and was smiling too.
"I told Sam that you two needed some time off. But if you feel more comfortable with retirement we are both going to support you." she said while sitting next to Sam grabbing his hand into hers. "Also, let me tell you, I'm gonna help to convince Fury to give you what you want." She smirked, that knowing smirk which said yes, I'm going to manipulate him for you.
You were nearly in tears. You didn't believe that they accepted your decision so quickly and without hesitation. "You guys, you don't know how much this means to us." you teared up, standing to hug them both.
"Thank you so much. Both of you." Bucky said softly trying to keep himself from crying.
You pulled away and looked into their eyes. "When are we going go talk to Fury?"
"How about tomorrow?" Wanda questioned.
"Ok, tomorow then." Bucky said.
"Shall we go make some dinner? I'm starving!" Sam whined and you all laughed.
"Let's go" Wanda laughed and dragged you all to the kitchen.
After two burned steaks, 1 burned apple pie and somehow a burned salad from the boys, who wanted to show off to you, you and Wanda took over.
The dinner was so peaceful. So beautiful. They were your family and you really loved them. So much.
"Oh, guys, have you decided were are you going to live?" Wanda asked at some point.
"Y/N told me about her grand-grand mother's mansion in Magnolia Springs. She said that it's very big for two people, but it'll be big enough to build spare rooms and rooms for us to spend our time. I haven't saw it yet, but I trust her."
"Wait. Did you just say 'build'?" Sam said confused.
"Yeah well I thought it'll be nice to create a home with our hands." You answered.
"It sounds really sweet, but what about the money?" Wanda asked.
"Stark left to much money, for us to use. So we think its the best way to use them." Bucky said.
"Yeah, Tony left a lot money to everyone and I still don't know why." You giggled.
"He's dead and he still makes us happy."
You all smiled at that and fell into silence. Memories from Tony making you all smile. Bucky smiled on the stories you all said about him. His smile fell from his face. He wanted to say he is sorry. For his parents for the mess he created between Tony and Steve. Oh, how much he wanted to apologize.
"Um, I'm finished does anyone want desert?" Bucky asked after a while. You all raised your heads and looked at him.
"Yeah, I do. I'm coming to help you." Sam said and they both left for the kitchen.
"Are you sure?" Wanda asked a minute after the guys left.
"For our decision?"
"Yeah."
"Yeah, yes I am. Bucky is an amazing guy and he is in the same boat with me. If we start over together it will be just a little bit easier."
"But sharing a home is a lot more than a start over, you know that."
"Wand me and Bucky are friends and we can do this. This will just be an adventure for us. We'll have fun, building our own house. Living a new life. Sure it'll be sometimes a little difficult, but we'll do this."
"I'm happy for both of you. I believe in you. And me and Sam will help you with what ever you need." She reached for your hand and held it.
"Thank you Wanda."You smiled at her. A smile which turned onto a smirk after a moment "oh and since you mentioned it. What's going on with you and Sammy?"
She left your hand and blushed like crazy. "Nothing, we're just friends"
"Yeah, yeah I believed you now Wands" you laughed.
"Shut up" A crimson color took over her cheeks and you laughed again.
-Meanwhile in the kitchen-
"Bucky, are you sure you wanna do this?"
"Yes, Sam, I'm 100% sure." Bucky sighed, cutting a big slice of cake for you.
"I mean you two don't know each other so long, to start a life together." Sam said with a concern voice. Bucky dropped slowly the knife and his head. But he immediately looked at him again.
"Sam, I trust her. She's been there for me in ways I couldn't even imagine. She never gives me an apologetic smile or looks at me with pity eyes. She is comforting in her own way, and she helps me when I need it even when I don't ask. I don't say that you or Wanda don't help me, it's just...she is...She's different and I like it. She makes me feel good."
"If she makes you happy, of course I won't get in the way. I just want to make sure that you're ok with that decision. I want the best for you bud." Sam admitted softly patting Bucky's shoulder. Bucky turned and hugged him tightly, not letting Sam breath for a bit.
"Ok, ok I need to breath now please." Bucky let him go and they both laughed.
"Ohh, bird brain I didn't ask you before." Bucky smirked without looking at him.
"What's it this time Tinman?" Sam rolled his eyes and said with an annoying voice.
"What's going on with you and Wanda?"
Sam choked on air while Bucky hit his back, still smirking.
"Nothing's happening."
"Yeah, yeah sure bird brain."
"Fuck off, asshat"
"Idiot."
"Let's go the girls are waiting."
They came after a while with four plates of chocolate cake. Your and Wanda's favorite.
"Here you are ladies." Sam excitedly said.
"Thank you boys" you smiled at both of them and continued your lovely night.
The dinner was over and you all were at your rooms waiting for sleep to take you. When a soft knock at your door, caught your attention.
Bucky opened further the door and whispered, "Doll, are you asleep?".
"No Buck, come in." He closed the door behind him and took small steps towards your bed.
"Hey" he waved at you.
"Hi" you chuckled.
"Can I please stay with you tonight?"
"Of course you can Buck." You pushed your covers and he laid beside, pulling up the blanket.
"Doll, am I the only nervous for tomorrow?"
"No, not really. I think I'm a bit nervous too. I mean we are going to tell Nick Fury that his last two super soldiers are going to retire and they're going to live like two farmers but yeah, no I'm not THAT nervous about that." You joked and he let a heartful belly laugh, that made your stomach feel weird, in a really good way.
"Yeah, way so nervous? It's so normal!" He laughed again and you followed.
"Seriously now Buck, Fury won't be happy. I'm slightly afraid that he'll refuse to retire us."
"Honestly, doll? I don't know what will happen tomorrow. Part of me hopes for the best but another part is just pessimistic."
"What will we do if he says no?"
"We'll see." he sighed.
"Ok" you said a lil' disappointed.
You curled closer to him and moved your gaze from the ceiling to his face. He found your eyes and spoke again softly, not wanting to disturb the peaceful silence, "come here, I don't mind." he smiled.
You pressed your body on his and wrapped your hands around him. He hugged you too and put a soft kiss on your head.
God only knew how much you both loved to be on each others embrace.
~~~~
When morning came, the nervousness came along with it. All your mind was thinking about rejection and Fury. You almost cried when the time for the meeting arrived.
Bucky came to your room to take you and went together, sharing some of the anxiety.
Before he opened the door, Bucky hugged you tightly and you hugged him back the same. You breathed and opened the door.
You greeted Fury and moved to sit down, next to each other, not wanting to let go the others side.
"Mr.Wilson informed me about your thoughts and decisions and of course the state of your mental health, and I have to say I'm surprised that you want to do such a thing together."
You looked at each other with a smile at your faces and a giving an actual loving gaze, and turned to Fury again and said and awkward yeah.
"So, where did that came from?" He said and confused you.
"What do you mean, sir?" Bucky said.
"Where that idea came from? How did you think such a thing? What brought you to that decision?"
"We just had a conversation together, after a tough night and we realized we can't do it any more."
"We want a new life. Bucky is really tired fighting and holding a gun on his hands and I'm really tired fighting too. But we don't have a problem helping whenever it's needed."
"We have a lot to discuss." Fury said with a frown.
After 2 hours and a lot convincing Fury agreed. He said that he will first check the house, the neighborhood, the neighbors' past, just to be sure. He said that he'll put Friday and a security system in the whole house. You hadn't disagreed of course. He also said that you'll get paid for whatever job you do for him, you'll still be his employees no matter where you live or what you do.
You didn't really care what jobs he'll give you eventually, you just wanted to live as far from this life as you could.
When you signed the papers, Fury dropped his serious face and said "I'm really proud of both of you" and left.
You turned and looked at Bucky, who just smiled. You smiled back at him and left, to start making plans for your new house.
