Immortal (Bucky B., Steve R., Logan H.) Book 1

21.

Nobodies POV

Freya felt absolutely numb, she hadn't shed a tear since the train. She was now in a hotel room in London.

Logan rented a room and was now getting her food.

Freya stares at her hands.

He was gone.

She opened herself up and now she lost him. Bucky made her feel again.

Freya lays back and she curls over the sheets.

"Frey." Logan whispers

Freya doesn't move or make a sound. Tears began streaming down her face. She wishes she can turn it all off.

Logan sits down on the other bed, in front of her, placing the food on the bed.

The sight of her crying broke his heart. "Just lay with me, please." Freya begs

Logan nods and he kicks off his boots. Logan walks to the other side of the bed and he lays behind her.

Freya turns and she hides her head into his chest. Logan closes his eyes and he hugs her tight.

"I'm so sorry Frey." Logan whispers

....

Freya looks at herself in the mirror, wiping a tear that slipped past her eye.

She needs to talk to Steve, she wasn't the only one who lost him.

"Are you sure about this." Logan ask, from behind her. Freya nods. "Steve lost him too." Freya says

....

A part of the city destroyed by bombs, formerly the bar where Steve enlisted the Howling Commandos.

Freya follows the voice of a radio through the rubble. She looks composed and tearless.

She was good at putting up a shield.

"Blackout is still in effect throughout the London area. Please wait for the all-clear. Your attention, please. All citizens shall remain indoors until further notice. Blackout is still in effect throughout the London area." Man on the Radio says

Steve begins talking when Freya finds him, he's pouring himself some drink.

"Dr. Erskine said that... the serum wouldn't just effect my muscles, it would effect my cells. Create a protective system of regeneration and healing. Which means um...I can't get drunk. Did you know that?" Steve ask

"Your metabolism burns four times faster than the average person. He thought it could be one of the side effects." Freya says

Referring to Bucky's death. "It wasn't your fault." Freya says, those words hurt, she knows it wasn't but his death still hurt.

"Did you read the reports?" Steve ask "Yes." Freya says "Then you know that's not true." Steve says

"You did everything you could. Did you believe in your friend? Did you respect him?" Freya ask

Steve looks at her as if to say yes.

"Then stop blaming yourself. Allow James the dignity of his choice. He damn well must have thought you were worth it." Freya says

"I'm goin' after Schmidt. I'm not gonna stop till all of Hydra is dead or captured." Steve says "You won't be alone." Freya says

Steve looks up and he notices her teary eyes. He then realizes she lost him too.

"Freya..." Steve breaths

Freya's eyes water more. "You have no idea how hard it was to not break down every step here." Freya says

Steve stands and he walks over to Freya, bringing her into his arms. Both just cry, letting themselves be vulnerable.
