Bucky goes down to the health room an hour in as you are sleeping.

"Hey Bruce, can I talk to you for a second?" Bucky asks as he sees Bruce.

"Yeah, what's up?" Bruce answers

"I wanted to ask you if she has the serum in her blood." Bucky responds

"Yeah, why do you ask?" Bruce asks

Bucky looks over to where you're sleeping on the  bed through the glass window and sighs, "Cause I trained her when I was the Winter Soldier and I want to tell her when I'm ready. When you tell her, can you tell her that Steve has the serum but don't mention my name?"

"Yeah, of course, I can do that." Bruce responds 

"Thanks Bruce." Bucky replies.

Bucky walks into the recovery room and sits down next to Clint. 

"How's she doing?" Bucky whispers 

"She's good, how are you?" Clint asks as he sets his book down

"I'm alright, so I found out that Y/N has the serum in her blood." Bucky sighs

"Yeah?"

"So I told Bruce that when he comes in to talk to her about her results that I have the serum. I want to tell her when I'm ready." Bucky replies as he watches you silently sleep, knowing that this may be the last time you are able to sleep comfortably and soundly, as he knows from personal experience. 

"Alright, I won't say anything either." Clint answers

"And there's a reason why she said that she recognized me." Bucky added

"Why's that?" Clint asks as he turns to Bucky

Bucky is hesitant, not knowing what Clint's response will be after he tells him this, but he's learned to trust Clint over the years as he's lived on the Compound for a couple years now, "Cause I trained her when I was the Winter Soldier."

"Are you going to tell her?" Clint asks

"Eventually. Just not yet, I want to tell her when I'm ready." Bucky comments as he sits back in his seat.

"Are you going to tell her everything?" Clint adds

"I mean if questions come up, I'll answer them but I just don't want to overwhelm her." Bucky commented

"That makes sense." Clint nods

They spend a few more minutes talking about Bucky's past and everything that had involved you. Bucky notices the time and realizes that he has to go train with Sam.

"I've got training with Sam, here in the next few minutes, but I'll see you around dinner?" Bucky asks as he stands up

"Depends on if Y/N is feeling up to it." Clint adds

"Alright." Bucky replies before he walks out of the recovery room to train with Sam.
