Bucky & Tony

(Post Endgame AU. FYI, I feel like Marvel owed this to Bucky and Tony. Just saying. Pics are from #pinterest Also, happy belated birthday to Sebastian 😊)

Bucky was tending to his goats when he heard footsteps coming. He peered from his eyes and saw not only T'Challa and Okoye, but Tony and Steve too.

Okoye walked ahead to him. "You have a visitor", she said.

"Could you give me a minute?", he asked.

Okoye nodded and let Bucky headed inside to clean himself. Bucky made sure his appearance looked as presentable as possible.

He walked out to find Tony and Steve talking by the lake. Steve nodded to Bucky before leaving him and Tony alone.

The death of Tony's parents will forever haunt Bucky. If he only he could turn back time.

Tony let his scar soaked under Wakanda's sun. When he had read all the files Natasha gave him, he was willing to try to forgive the man that killed his parents.

"Tony...", Tony turned to the man with one arm, looking as if guilt had consumed him.

"I read all the files. To be honest, it's taking time", said Tony.

"I wish I could change it. I really do...", said Bucky.

"But you can't. I mean, we could've with the time stone, but..., I don't want to mess up this reality. God knows what it could look like if I change the past...", said Tony.

"...I'm sorry, Sergeant Barnes. If I had listened, you wouldn't be hiding here with the goats", said Tony again.

The goats bleated at Tony, made Bucky chuckled. Tony offered his hand to Bucky.
"It's taking time to digest, but..., I'm willing to give you a shot", he said.

Bucky grasped Tony's hand firmly. "Thank you, Tony", he said, feeling relieved and felt as if something heavy on his shoulders had been lifted up.

"Well, if it weren't for that old man's insistence, who knows. You might be stuck with the goats", Tony chuckled.

"Really, I mean it. Thank you", said Bucky, pulling Tony into a hug.

"Ok, Jesus take the wheel, end of hug", despite being one arm, Tony felt overwhelmed by Bucky's hug.

"You don't know how much this means to me", said Bucky.

"Don't sweat it, O Good Lord", Tony smiled.

Tony was about to walk away when he remembered something. He handed Bucky a steel case.

"A little..., welcoming gift..., to The Avengers", he said before leaving.

Bucky set the case down before opening it. He smirked - a new black metal arm, laced with red and gold plating, with an instruction manual and a little note.

"Have fun".
