"Do you see the stars in the sky? I made them. The mountains in the horizon? I made that as well. The sunset after a hard day of work? I took a paintbrush and painted the sky."

POCAHONTAS QUICKLY left New York to go to Europe. The young woman knew every single place on earth. Every nook and cranny of the only planet suitable for life, was known to her. One of her favorite places was Bucharest, Romania. She fell in love with the city, and quite frankly, the country.
She kept an apartment there for her to come back every once in a while. Since she didn't like cars, because of pollution, she flew there with giant leaves as her wings.
Once she arrived at the apartment complex and walked in, she was greeted by the lobby man.
She ran to the elevator, and got in just in time. A tall man with long brown hair and a big frame, stood next to her. For some reason, he only wore a glove on his left hand. She found that to be strange.
"What floor?" He asked.
"Same as yours." She replied, trying to make eye contact but he'd look at anything but her blue eyes.
Bucky was feeling so awkward, he was trying to keep to himself and not make contact with the woman in the elevator with him. But with his enhanced senses from the serum, coupled with his training, he could sense something was..... different about her from the rest. Pocahontas hummed a song to herself, while she felt like she should get out of the elevator as quickly as humanly possible. This guy was kinda scary to her.
"Are you new here?" Bucky asks, his voice gruff and low. He spoke so softly, she almost didn't catch what he said.
"No." She said. "I like to travel a lot. I've had an apartment here for years." Since she was Mother Nature, she knew every country like the back of her hand. But by far, Romania was her favorite. She always found herself coming back once in a while.
"When did you get back?" He asked, giving a side glance, but not really looking at her. He only caught the long dark locks on her head past her shoulders.
"Today." She replied, smiling a little.
Bucky grunted with a nod. The elevator dinged for their arrival.
"Ladies first." She heard him say and a big, tall man bumped into her because she wasn't paying attention.
"Hey, watch it lady." The tall man said rudely in his native tongue. Bucky frowned. This is one of his neighbors from down the hall. He didn't much like the guy, but he ignored him and his attitude the whole time Bucky lived here.
"I'd watch your back if I were you." She replied in Romanian. She felt like throwing a fireball at him but she had to get over it.
The man scoffed, "Whatever, Princess." He pushed past her, not taking her seriously.
Pocahontas rolled her eyes, and Bucky handed her the purse she dropped when she fell.
"You okay?" He asked.
"Yeah. Thanks for asking, stranger." Was all he said, since she didn't know his name. She could finally see his face now, and he was quite attractive.
"Bucky. My name is Bucky." He corrected,
He got a good look at her, and was taken aback by her beauty. He couldn't help but stare for a few moments, before finally looking away.
"That's a nice name, Bucky. My name is Pocahontas."
Bucky smiled, "It's nice to meet you." Offering a handshake, making sure to use his real hand instead of his metal one.
"Nice to meet you too." She replied giving him a smile.
Bucky suddenly felt his heart start hammering against his rib cage, finding himself getting lost in her aqua blue eyes.
"You okay there, Bucky?" She asked, tapping his chest a couple times.
His cheeks started to heat up, but cleared his throat as he closed himself in. "Yeah, sorry. I guess I'll see you later."
"Sure." She replied. Without even realizing it, the two were walking in the same direction to get to their apartments.
When Bucky got to his door, he noticed something as the raven haired woman went to open her own. "Looks like we live right next to each other."
"Yeah. Apparently." She took her keys out of her purse and attempted to unlock the door but couldn't.
Bucky tightened his lips to keep an amused smiled from breaking out, "Need some help?"
"Yeah." She said.
He went up to her and she stepped aside to give him room, to which he was thankful for and worked on getting the door to open. It only took a moment, but he manages to open the door. Unlocking it wasn't the problem, it was the door itself that somehow got stuck from opening. "Here you go." Bucky stepped back once the task was done.
"Thank you!" She said happily. She felt like hugging him but didn't.
Bucky merely smiled and gave a nod, "Your welcome." And went into his own apartment. He may not have all of his memories, but he does remember what he was like before. He used to be a ladies man, a gentleman, but a ladies man nonetheless. Those days were gone though, ever since Hydra took him and stole everything from him. Bucky frowned bitterly from the reminder. But then his mind went to the woman that lives next door to him.
Pocahontas sat down on the couch, staring at the ceiling. Little wisps of fire surrounded her fingers just by thinking about it. All she could think about was her life back in the 1600s. She grew up in the late 1590s, but all she could remember was when she was a little girl and met John Smith. She felt like she wanted rest, being Mother Nature wasn't easy.
Bucky couldn't help but wonder who this woman really was. Her name is Pocahontas, he knows that. It's just he feels that there is more to her than what appearances suggests. He'll have to keep an eye on her for now.
