Few weeks later...
Angela and Bucky lay in bed together. Bucky runs his fingers through her hair, Angela rests on Buckys chest as she doodles in a notebook. Bucky kisses her head. "You ok?"
Angela nods. "I'm ok" she replies. Bucky nods. "I'm gonna take the weekend off, spend time with you ok?"
Angela nods. "I would like that"
Bucky smiles. "Thank you"
Angela places her notebook to the side. "I'm sorry"
"Darling theres not reason for you to be ok? Everything is gonna be ok"
She nods. "Can you do me a favor?"
"Yeah"
"I wanna see Andy, please"
Bucky smiles and kisses the side of her head. "Of course"
Bucky gets off the bed and heads to the nursery, few minutes later he comes back with Andy in his hands. Angela sits up and smiles.
"You ready?"
Angela nods. "Yes"
Bucky carefully places Andy in her arms, he thens sits down beside her. Angela holds her closes as she sleeps, supporting the head as she does.
"Shes so beautiful" she whispers. "Shes looks like you"
Bucky smiles. "She stubborn like you, takes me hours to get her to sleep"
Angela chuckles. "That's my girl"
After her break down in his office a few weeks before, he canceled everything he had that afternoon and took Angela home. They showered together, ate, Angela cried some more. But Bucky is not leaving her side, hes going to help her. Bucky was glad that Laura decided to discharge her, Angela is making much better progress.
"Angel, I have something for you"
Angela smiles. "Whats up?"
Bucky stands up and grabs his laptop and a flash drive from the desk. He comes to back to the bed and opens it, plugging the drive in.
"I recorded everything. From her first crawl, her first bite of food, first laugh, I'm still waiting on her to talk and walk but... yeah"
Angela feels tears gather in her eyes. "You did?"
"I did. My dad did the same for me." He says. Angela sniffs and holds Andy close. "I wanna hear her laugh"
Bucky nods and goes to the video. "Steve was trying to get her to laugh, all day"
Angela giggles. "Of course her was"
"He tripped on the stairs and Andy fell out laughing, even though Steve really sprained his ankle" Bucky plays the video and shows the screen to Angela. Her eyes were glued to the screen as she watches Steve try to make Andy laugh, and yeah hes failing. Angela smiles wide when she hears her daughters laugh, seeing her happy. A tear falls from the corner of her eye.
"Angel, you ok?" Bucky asks pausing the video. Angela nods and kisses Andy on her forehead. "I'm ok"
Bucky moves some hair from her face and cups her chin. "I love you"
"I love you too" Angela smiles. "Can I see more of her?"
Bucky nods and takes Andy and places her on the mat while Angela grabs the laptop. She goes through all the recordings of Andy, she smiles. "I can't believe you have all five months of her all on here"
Bucky chuckles. "Well I firgured in 20 years I wouod look back on my little girl" he sits back on the bed.
Angela kisses his shoulder. "Well in 20 years, we can look at it together"
"I would love that"
Angela goes back to the computer and looks through the videos and pictures. "She grew up so fast"
"Angel.."
"Shes even starting to look like me more, she has my eyebrows"
"Angel shes walking"
Angel gasps and turns her head to Andy. Shes on her feet taking little steps at a time. Angela smile grows wide and she sets the computer on the nightstand.
"James go get your phone hurry" she says getting on the ground. "Come on baby, walk to momma"
Bucky grabs his phone, fumbling with it as he rushes to turn on the video. Angela holds her arms out, waiting for Andy to walk to her.
"Ok I got, I got" Bucky points his phone to Andy. Andy stumbles a bit but continues to walk to Angela. Angela feels tears form in the corner of her eyes. Shes hear for this moment, this special moment shes here.
"Come on Andy, you're almost there" Angela reaches her hands out and take hers, guiding Andy to her. Andy jumps into Angelas lap and laughs. Angela smiles and kisses her cheek.
"Oh my baby walked" Angela exclaims. "She walked."
Bucky sets his phone down. "She did"
"I was here" she holds Andy close to her. "I didn't miss it"
Bucky kisses her forehead, he knows what she means. She was here to see her daughter, with her own eyes. Angela missed five months of her life, but she here now.
"Don't cry baby" Bucky kisses her cheek. Angela chuckles. "I'm just happy, I'm so happy"
Bucky smiles. "Lets put her to bed ok? You need your rest"
"Let me hold her a bit longer"
Bucky nods. "Alright"
Angela leans her head on his shoulder. "Thank you"
"For what darling?"
"Staying. Not giving up on me"
Bucky smiles and wraps her arm around her. "Always my love"

Few minutes later, Angela walks back into the room and climbs into bed. "Shes alseep"
Bucky sighs. "Great"
Angela gets under the covers and immediately snuggles over to Bucky. Bucky wraps his arms around her and places a kiss on her neck and shoulder. "I Love you"
Angela smiles. "I love you too"
"Um can I um, ask you something?"
Angela turns around and faces him. "Whats wrong?"
Bucky sighs. "Well we never really discussed the fact that... you can't have kids and I was just wonder how you are feeling about that"
Angela knew this conversation would come up. She sits up and shurgs. "I don't know, I wanted a big family growing up"
"And now?"
"I still want that, but I can't give you that"
Bucky sits up and takes her hands. "Darling, don't do that to yourself ok? This is not your fault"
"I know, I just... I really want to get pregnant again, I want to experience the joy, but with what happened when I was pregnant with Andy, The fights we has, I don't want that again" she explains. Bucky nods, he understands where she is coming from. "Do you, want more kids? If so we can talk to other doctors, mane adoption."
She smiles. "Eventually yes, but I wanna take sometime"
"And I'll support that"
Angela kisses his cheek. "Thank you James"
"So do we use condoms or do you wanna go on the pill?"
Angela laughs. "Really?"
"Angela I missed you, but I also missed having sex with you"
Angela giggles. "I can get an IUD, k?"
Bucky smirks. "Perfect" he kisses her lips. Angela cups his face, deepening the kiss.
"We should married" he whispers against her lips. Angelas eyes widened and she breaks the kiss. "I'm sorry what?"
Bucky hisses. "Shit did I say that out loud?"
Angela nods. "Yeah..."
Bucky clears his throat, he feels his cheeks heat up in embarrassment. "Angel..."
"James.."
Bucky opens the bedside table and pulls out and small black box. "I bought this a year ago, probably 3 months after we got back together." He opens it and Angela gasps. "James.."
"I was gonna give it to you after your art show, but things... happened
Angela nods and wipes her eyes. "James, I... wow this is... wow" she chuckles.
"I love you so much Angela, you changed me for the better. And...and... shit I'm not good with this.."

Bucky scoffs softly. "What?"
"Yes I will marry you James, now shut up and kiss me"

Angela faught with Bucky about going back but she realized she had to go. And it helped, alot. She better now. Her life is back together again.
Now, Angela heads downstairs with a basket of dirty laundry in her hands. She exhales when she reaches the last step.
"What are you doing?" Bucky asks.

"I'm fine" she chuckles. "I'm pregnant, not dying"
Bucky sighs and rests her hands in her shoulders. "I know, just... I love you and I want you to rest okay?"
Angela nods. "Let me just put this load in and I'll rest okay?"
Bucky kisses her forehead. "Alright"
Bucky and Angela started trying for a baby two years after they got married. And they loved the baby making, but the results were discouraging. Angela wanted to give up, the medication she was using was making her sick. She was tired. But eight months later, she saw two blue lines on the test. And she became happy, overfilled with joy.
Angela hisses. "You know what, why don't you finsh, shes kicking really hard"
Bucky chuckles and takes the basket from her. "Go rest"
Angela holds her stomach. "Ok..."

"She is" Angela laughs. "I can't wait to hold her"
"I love you" he kisses her cheek. "So much"
"I love you more"
The front door opens and Laura walks in with Andy in ger arms. Angela smiles. "Hey mom"
"Hey sweetie, you feeling ok?" She asks setting Andy on the ground. She immediately runs to Bucky.
"I'm ok, shes just kicks alot" Angela replies. "Hows dad?"

"Alright"

"Think of any names yet?" Laura asks. Angela nods. "Yeah, either Lynn or Bella is a good name"
Laura sips her tea. "I love Laura personally"

"So, I was supposed to wait to tell you but what the hell"
"Mom whats going on?" Angela asks.
"Well, me and Clint are going back home with the boys"
"Home?"
"Oh we lived in Kentucky before Detroit so we're moving to be closer to my mom" Laura explains.
"Really? When are you going?" Angela asks, hiding her sadness.
"Next month"
Angela nods and sips her tea. Laura sighs. "Angie, you'll be ok without me"
"I know, I'll just miss you alot"
"I know you will, but we will definitely come visit"
Angela sets her cup down and rests her legs on the coffee table. "Well I'm happy for you mom, I'm gonna miss you dad and the boys"
"Thank you Angie"
Angela chuckles. "Damn"
"Everything ok?"
Angela laughs. "No, my water just broke"
Lauraa eyes widened and she hops off her seat. "What? Are you sure?"
"Uh yeah"
"Ok let me get Bucky you stay ok?"
Angela leans back. "Don't worry, I'm not moving"

Bucky paces back and forth in the hospital room. Angela rolls her eyes and huffs. "James"
"What?" He asks still pacing.
"Can you stop? I'm going to throw up"
Bucky stops moving. "Sorry"
Angela giggles. "You nervous?"
"Very"
"I am too, but our baby will be ok"
Bucky sighs and sits on the edge of the bed. He takes her hand in his. "Do you need anything?"
"A kiss would be nice"
Bucky chuckles softly and leans in, he presses his lips to her. He kisses her softly but passionately. Bucky breaks the kiss after a few moments and kisses the tip of her nose.
"I love you, always will"
"I love you too"
Bucky places his hand on Angelas stomach. "What are we gonna name our girl?"
Angela smiles. "I don't know, we picked out beautiful names. Might as well pull from a hat"
Bucky chuckles and kisses her cheek. "Lovely idea"
"Yeah?"
"No" Bucky laughs. Angela rolls her eyes and crosses her arms. "Its simple"
"I'll pick a name ok? You said I get to name her anyway"
"Now when did I say that?"
"Remember when we were trying? You said if you get pregnant I get to name the child"
Angela scoffs. "I was full of cock, I wasn't thinking straight"
Bucky sighs and kisses her neck. "Cute"
Angela giggles and pushes him back. The door opens and a doctor comes in. "Hi Angela, how are we feeling?"
"Hungry" she confesses. Bucky steps out of the way so that the doctor and examine her.
"Ok can you lift your legs up, i wanna feel how dilated you are"
Angela nods and lifts her legs us, the doctor slips her hand under the covers and feels her. She has a worried look on her face.
"Doctor Rose? Is everything ok?"
Rose stands up straight and takes off her gloves, tossing them in the trash bin. ",Well, I can feel your babys feet at your core which is not good"
Angela reaches for Buckys hand and squeezes it tight. "Is she ok?"
"Oh sweetie theres nothing to worry about, we just have to preform a C-section"
"So my babys not gonna die?"
"We just have to get up to surgery soon, but trust me she won't die"
Bucky sighs in relief and kisses the top of her head. "Everythings gonna be ok darling"
