The next morning I woke up to the sound of kids playing around. I looked up from Bucky's chest and squinted at Sam's nephews who were playing with the shield.

"Hey," Bucky said softly, the boys put down the shield and ran to the other side of the house. Bucky let out a small chuckle before turning back to look at me.

"Good morning doll," Bucky whispered and stretched one arm out before resting it on Bucky's chest.

"Good morning," I smiled at him, he leaned forward and kissed my forehead.

"Let's go help Sam with the boat," he whispered rubbing my back trying to move out from underneath me. I yawned before nodding and sitting up, Bucky moving so he was seated on the couch now. He reached out and grabbed my shoes and set them in front of me as he pulled on his boots.

I leaned down and pulled on my sneakers before stretching again, my arms reaching out as wide as they could. Bucky pushed on my arm as I stretched moving it out of his face.

I stood up shaking my head. Bucky leaned down patting my ass twice as he gave me a quick peck on the lips. He pulled away a smirk on his face as he stood up.

I rolled my eyes before he took my hand and led me out of the house and down the road to the dock.

The sun was bright and beautiful as it came over the horizon. Bucky moved down to the deck, following the sounds of the tools clinking and Sam's grunts. I stayed on deck cleaning up what was left and re-organizing tools.

A few hours passed and everyone from a yesterday came back to help finish getting the boat ready. I sat beside Bucky and Sam with the torn up water pump or something in front of us.

"I have no idea what we are doing.." I hugged leaning my head into my hand.

"Well I do so sit there and be quiet," Sam said in a frustrated tone, making me laugh. Bucky sat across from me turning his eyes to me I gave him a wink making him smile.

"What are you doing!?" Sarah ran up beside us and swatted Sam's shoulder before reaching down and grabbing the parts. I held my hands up in surrender as Sarah shot me a glare.

"Ya'll don't even know what you're doing!" Sarah groaned tucking the parts under her arm and shoving Sam out of his seat.

"You two go, have a bromance picnic or something.." Sarah said sitting down, waving her hand at Bucky and Sam. I went to stand up when Sarah shot me another glare.

"What?" I scoffed sitting down again. Sam turned to me with a laugh.

"You owe me for getting you two super soldiers back together, so you stay with me," Sarah said handing me a rag and a part of the engine to wipe down. I rolled my eyes but I really didn't mind helping Sarah out, she was a great person to be around.

"Don't have to much fun," Bucky said leaning down to kiss my cheek. I put the rag down then reached out resting my hand on his arm. As he walked away my hand slid down his arm and he gave my hand a light squeeze before catching up to Sam, who was shaking his head.

"You two make me sick," I could hear Sam say and I couldn't help but laugh as I watched the two walk off together.

A few hours later, Sarah had crammed enough knowledge into my brain about the engines in boats to make me think she was a Navy Sailor in another life. I wiped the sweat off my forehead with my sleeve, a small patch of grease on my forehead now.

"Here is this piece," I said leaning down from the dock to the deck of the ship handing the piece to Sarah.

"Thank you," she said in a sing song voice taking the piece from me before disappearing into the engine room. I couldn't help but smile at her lighthearted nature.
