Anna looked up frm her papers and sighed ‘’it could be. But it could also be due tot he fact that shes been in CYRO for decades and never went outside after being taken by HYDRA. I know when i was first changed i was a bit paler in looks, from my understanding it because essentially im dead.. like.. dead dead. My blood flows very slowly, which in turns can cause my skin to look paler, feel colder.. but her body temp is pretty average. So im assuming the paleness is due to not being outside for decades’’ Anna said as she resumed wth her paper work. She stopped again after a couple minutes ‘’your sister is alive and well and fully restored memory wise. Take it as a win Steve. ‘’ Anna said before she started packing up the now finished paper work and the file on Gertrude. ‘’Ad her room is right next to mine and across frm yours and Bucky’s so whenever shes ready you can take her there, theres clothing and feminine products already in there for her too’’ Anna said before finally packing up all the paperwork and started to amke ehr wya out of the kitchen area and head towards her room.

Bucky smiled and laughed ‘’yeah well, steve means well but sometimes hes gotta know when to quit’’ bucky stated and smield softly ‘’I’ve bene out of hydra for two ish years. Before that i was out but ont he run, that didnt leave time to date, idont really have time now.. im here most days, or on a mission, for decades i was with HYDRA, cant really meet people when youre a blank weapon… and here.. well like i said im either ehre, or on a mission or in a therapy session wit Anna or the therapist sheild found for me. That’s pretty much my life, very routine.. i dont.. trust.. myself when im out there as a civi, i.. i cant. Besides having a full metal arms tends to make people stare at you. No thanks to that’’ bucky siad ‘’but its fine.. i never really wanted anyone anyways..guess im still holing onto someone else’’he admitted as he looked at Gertrude with a gentle loving look on his face.. he ain’t. Sur eif he should admit anything futher than that, specially right now afetr all thats gone down.

Anna stopped and turned to steve as he said he owed her one ‘’ o. You dont owe me anything..’’ she said gently ‘’ besides, if i had the chance to save my sister.. id take it to.. so dont worry bout it, you dont owe me anything. Im just glad it all worked out…’’ she said softly with a smile on her face, though it didnt reach her eyes  ‘’i should go, gotta send this stuff to Fury, then i gotta hunt.. ill see you around’’ Anna said before leaving. She used her sped before steve could say anything more. She got to her room ad walked inside,setting everything down before she walked ot her closet and pulled out a small photo, she used to have a old painting of her fmaily, but it got destroyed, thankfully tony had found a way to recreate it and make it into a digital photo for her.. she sighed as she looked at it, rubbing her finger over her little sisters face…’’i miss you’’ she whispered before tkaing it and sitting down with it for a while.

Bucky chuckled and shrugged ‘’well I haven’t seen this girl for well.. seventy yearsm, give er take a few days to add on.. so i wasnt sure how shed react to he metal arm’’ bucky stated, slightly pressing his lips together ‘’i should have said this a long time ago.. like.. a very long time ago’’ he started to say ‘’you see.. what im trying to say..is.. that ive.. ive be-‘’ bucky started to say but was interupted when steve came back iiinto the room with food and drinks. Bucky cleared his throat and stood so steve could use the chair that was next tot he table and bed Gertrude was on. He felt some heat rising to his face but composed himself as stevestarted tot lak to Gertrude. 

‘’You’re annoying you know that?’’ Bucky sated and sighed ‘’seriosuly, even now you have the worst timing in the world1’’ he sated and groaned a bit before sitting down ‘’but to answer you. Yes, she seems pretty okay to me. She seems to have her memories as far as i can tell, we talked about how you were with the ladies, and she seemed to remember how you were back then so thats a good sign’’ bucky stated and teased a bit. ‘’I havent noticed anything wrong.. ‘’ bucky siad with a shrug and leaned back int he chair ‘’she noticed my arm though. Though it was ‘cool’ ‘’ h added and chuckled a bit. ‘’So. What took you so long huh? You ask out Anna yet?’’ Bucky asked knowing the topic would make steve a tad bit uncomfortable, but he liked making him squirm anyways, it was entertaining. 

Bucky rolled his eyes and set his drink down ‘’for your information, its a bit on the hard slide to admit feelings for someone you thought was dead,  only to find out theyve been in cryo this whole time. Secondly, i actually did almost confess how I felt till your skinny ass came wlaking in.  And thirdly, youre dumber than i thought if you cant see how Anna feels about you. Trust me when i say, no one woman would just go risking everything to find someone she doesnt even know for guy she ‘doesn’t like’. Ive seen how she looks at you when youre not looking, ive also seen how she treats you in comparison to anyone else on the team. The only person she treats as remotely the same as you, is Nat and you know it. ‘’ bucky epxlained ‘’seriosuly, man up. If i cna almost get it out, minus your interuption, then you most certainly can. Youve been looking at her the same wya you use to look at Peggy, your love struck. And so is she, so for all of our sake,s and so i can win the bet, ask he rout already’’ bucky stated an dchuckled ‘’yes the team made a bet, even fury is in on it. ‘’ bucky added and laughed lgihtly before Gertrude came back into the room. 

Bucky couldn’t help but laugh when Gertrude started frekaing out over the dress’’women wear shorter and mroe revealing than that Gertie’s,  thats actually pretty modest for women nowadays’’ bucky said and chuckled, ‘’hangs on one sec’’ bucky said ‘’Friday. You there?’’ He called out ‘’I am, how may i help you today Bucky?’’ Friday answered making Gertie jump ‘’can you ask Anna to come. Down her eplease and help  Gertrude cover up a bit more. Shes feeling a bit.. exposed’’ Bucky said ‘’I’ll let. Her know right away. There is miss ann’a lab coat here if Gertrude would like it’’ friday said as a robotic arm came over with the coat, bucky took it and thanked friday before helping Gertrude slip on Ann’a lab coat ‘’you look great by the way’’ bucky whispered in her ear before letting her sit down and start. Eating. 

Meanwhile Anna was actually getting ready to go out, she needed a good nights out and Wanda and nat were happy to go with her and aprty for a bit. She had fed before hand and was just adding her shoes when friday called her. Saying Gertrude needed something less revealing to wear, Anna arched a brow but told Fridays he’d be there soon. Anna looked in her closet and found a pair of. Light blue flared jeans, a black tshirt with ‘nirvana’ printed on it and some flats and a lgiht blue cardigan to go with it,  it would definitely cover Gertrude up more. She sped off to the lab and arrived in time. To see Gertrude eating ‘’knock knock’’ she said and walked in ‘’firday said you needed something else to wear. Here, theyre jeans, with a tshirt and a cardigan over it, it’ll cover you up more if youre feeling to exposed, Myself Wanda and Natasha can take you out shopping tomrrow so you can find what you lie, you can also rummage throguh my very vast wardrobe, i may still ave clothes formt he 20’s, 30’s 40’s all the wya up. Tot he 90’s, i tend to horde clothes,s i like them to much to get rid of. So you cna have a look in there whenever you wnat. ‘’ Anna siad as she set the clothes down ‘’where the hell are you off to/‘’ bucky asked ‘’oh me Nat and Wanda are going to a new club that just opened, we all decided to have a nice night dancing and drinking.’’ Anna said with a shrug as she started to leave ‘’ill see you guys in the morning. Oh steve dont forget we got that new work out regiment to try in the morning too. And bucky you have therapy at 4pm tomorrow.’’ Anna said ‘’hope you sleep well Gertrude, ill see you tomorrow. If. You need anything,  your room will be next to Bucky’s, mine and Steve’s.’’ She said before waving at them then heading off.
