You sat in the living room of Steve's apartment alone, day dreaming. A few weeks had past and you still weren't used to how much New York had changed. It was hard to see that your favorite places didn't exist anymore. Like the little bar you and Bucky used go to was now a Barbershop. When you looked at the barbershop all you remembered was dancing with Bucky. Taking shots, and practically drinking till you wanted to puke. Also how the both of you stumbling back to his place to listen to records and dancing till the sun came up. It was the best time of your life.

Steve walks through the front door and that brings you back to reality. He had a couple bags of groceries. You get up to help but he waves you off and tells you to relax. After a moment he enters the room and sits on the couch.
"I remember you said that you wanted to get back in the field. Are you still interested?" Asked Steve. Your face lit up. "Yeah, I sure I am" You replied. "I think its time for you to start your training" said Steve. You smiled. Those words were music to your ears. "Today?" You asked eagerly. He smiled. "Tomorrow" he replied.

The next day when you walked into the shield facility, you were floored. You couldnt believe how much everything had changed. The technology frightened you a bit. When you walked into the elevator you heard the elevator identify you and Steve. You nearly had a heart attack. "How does it know my name Steve?" You asked in a hushed voice. Steve giggled. "Its magic" he simply said as the elevator took you both to the 49th floor. As the both of you walked the hallway. You kept pressing him about the elevator. He finally told you what he knew about technology, which wasn't much. He told you if you wanted to know more he would gladly introduce you to Tony Stark. "Stark? Is he Howard's boy? You asked. He nodded. "So, how is Howard?" You asked. "He's no longer with us" said Steve. "Oh" you said sadden by the news.

You walked into the training room to see a red head sparring with man. She moved so gracefully. It was almost like watching a dance. She was fast and persistent. She quickly defeated her opponent by putting him in a triangle hold. Steve waits for her to let him go before the both of you approach her. When she finally does let him go she introduces herself. "I'm Natasha" she says as she shakes your hand. The man she just defeated springs to his feet. "I'm Clint" he says as he also extends his hand. "It's nice to meet you both" you say with a smile.
"Y/N starts her training today" said Steve to the both of them. "And you're going to train her old man?" Clint says with a chuckle. "Ha ha very funny" Steve said sarcastically with a fake smile. "We'll leave you to it then" says Natasha. They both smile warmly at you and they left the room. You stepped onto the mat. It felt good to be back at it. To be training, and getting back in the field.
"You should probably stretch, its been awhile for you." Says Steve with a chuckle as he wraps his hands. You glare at him. He was right it has been awhile but you were totally up for it. "You might wanna stretch too old man. And just so you know, I might be old but I feel completely young." you say as you stretch.
He chuckles. "That's good to hear. Do you need help wrapping your hands and wrist?" he asked finishing up his wrap.
"Yeah, I'm not even sure I remember the proper way to do it anymore." You say walking over to him.
He grabs your wrist, positioning them correctly. He places the loop around your thumb and start wrapping around the back of your wrist. He finishes one hand and starts on the other. "I know you're going through a lot, and I know how much you miss him. I do too." Says Steve as he finishes up the other hand. You look at him. How could he have known that Bucky was on your mind? You took a deep breath. You didn't say anything. You just smiled at him. The smile was forced and he knew that. You took your hand back from him and walked back towards the mat. He followed you silently. Once on the mat you stared at him, sizing him up. "Well, come on all ready" he said impatiently. "Can a lady take her time?" You say jokingly. "The bad guys aren't gonna wait." Said Steve. "Well punk, you're not a bad guy are ya?"......
