You looked at Bucky who was already reciprocating your confused look.

"Bucky is right here Steve. What do you mean you're looking at him?"

"I mean, I'm looking right at him. He's a few tables away from me in this diner outside of Beijing."

"Maybe it just looks like him. Maybe you thought it was him."

He sighed,"I've been following him for hours. Its Bucky."

You shook your head.

"It's not. Maybe it's a fake. Someone trying to frame him. Someone using Bucky for their own agenda."

"Why?"  He asked.

"Well you're the closest to him. Go find out Cap."

"Yes ma'am." Steve hung up and you put the phone down and looked over at Bucky.

He was looking down at the floor, fiddling with his fingers.

"Buck?"

He slowly lifted his head, his blue eyes connected with your eyes.

Your breath hitched.

His eyes were red and watery. His jaw was tightly clenched.

He was fighting tears.

You knelt down in front of him and took his face in your hands.

"What's wrong Buck?"

He clenched his teeth.

"He's going to do things. Terrible things and people are going to think its me."

Your brows furrowed,"We will fix this. No one will blame you."

He shook his head. "They'll still think I'm a bad guy."

"We'll make them see that you aren't."

He clenched his jaw again and stayed silent, fighting more tears.

"They already think I am."

"That isn't your fault. You've been controlled. We'll help them to see that."

He shook his head,"It isn't enough."

"Yes it is." You leaned in and kissed his head and let go of his face.

He dropped his head back down.

"Why me? What did I do to deserve this?" His voice cracked.

You took his hands,"You've done nothing James. You don't deserve this. Sometimes bad things happen to good people and we just have to roll with the punches and get through it. I'm here with you every step of the way. It's me and you til the end." You smiled.

Bucky gave you a weak smile.

You stood up and took his hand pulling him up with you.

He looked down and you wrapped your arms tightly around him and tucked your head into his large chest.

He put his arms around you and gave a light squeeze and kissed the top of your head.

"I don't deserve you." He said.

You pulled away.

"You're right."

His eyes slightly widened.

"You deserve better." You added.

He frowned,"There is no better. You're absolutely perfect. And if it isn't too late I'd still love to have our date."

You grinned up at him.

"I'd love that too." You paused still holding onto him,"I've really missed you James. I don't want to let you go cause I'm afraid you'll leave again."
