Bucky and Žofia, after a brief stop in Wakanda, boarded a plane.
---
Their plane landed in Delacroix, Louisiana.
They arrived at the docks and saw people unloading things, putting them close to the boat.
Žofia looked around for Sam and heard him say, "Tommy, Carlos, man, this is amazing." He chuckled. "Thanks so much, man."
"Look..." Carlos began.
"Thanks, y'all."
"Hey, look, word goes out the Wilson family needs help?"
"Yes, sir," a man said.
"We still got a bit of usefulness in us."
"How do we get it off the truck?"
Bucky grabbed a crate from the back and a man cried, "Oh!"
As Bucky set the crate down, he said, "You're welcome."
Sam glanced at Žofia. "Did someone call you two?"
Žofia shook her head. "No, we're just dropping something off."
Bucky placed the case on the back of the truck. "You can sign for it and we'll go. I called in a favor from the Wakandans."
Before Sam could say anything, a hose came loose on the boat and a loud hissing sounded.
Sarah quickly made her way to her brother and called, "Sam!"
Sam ran to the boat and grabbed a wrench, trying to tighten the hose.
"Hi," Bucky greeted, waving to Sarah.
"Hi," Sarah replied in a bright tone.
Žofia frowned as she looked between Bucky and Sarah. Bucky, noticing Žofia's expression, moved closer to her.
Bucky walked up to Sam and said, "Hold on, hold on. You gotta go up." He grabbed the wrench from Sam and tightened the hose.
As soon as the hissing stopped, Bucky dropped the wrench to his side and Žofia walked onto the boat.
Sam looked between Bucky and the hose before asking, "Why didn't you use the metal arm?"
Žofia chuckled softly with a light smirk and said, "Well... He is right-handed."
Bucky looked at his left hand and added, "I don't always think of it immediately." Sam chuckled and Žofia smiled lightly. "So, this is the boat, huh?"
"This is it." Sam leaned against the box below the hose.
Bucky nodded and looked around again. "It's nice."
"Would you like any help?" Žofia asked.
"Yeah," Sam replied as he walked to the front of the boat.
Sarah walked up to the boat and Bucky smiled before saying, "I'm Bucky." He gestured to the brunette. "This is Žofia."
"Ah, Sarah," Sam's sister replied with a smile.
Žofia smiled. "It's wonderful to meet you, Sarah."
Bucky nodded. "Sarah."
Sarah looked between them. "Sam was right about the two of you. You're great together."
"Oh, no, we're not together."
"You could have fooled me with the way you look at her.
Bucky snuck a glance to Žofia before going to assist.
