Summary: Being rescued was the only thing that had kept you going after you were abducted, but the recovery after was harder – you knew there was going to be a light at the end of the tunnel, a time when you wouldn’t be scared of being alone – but you were far from there. Thanks to Steve, Bucky, and the entire Avengers team, your recovery began in peace and quiet.
Author’s Notes: Thank you all for reading – I hope you like where the story is going. I am trying to keep the pace enjoyable, but still take the time to flesh out the characters. I want to give ultimate thanks to @MsEnglish101 for being an invaluable sounding board and editor. This chapter and this entire work is much better thanks to her. Please leave comments and let me know how you like it. Thanks!

Warnings: Fluff, family and relationship drama, (trigger warning) healing after a trauma, some pretty strong angst, and explicit sexual content that is NSFW 18+. SERIOUSLY.
The next few days were a blur. Physically, you were healing, and mentally, things seemed ok, but you always felt tired and didn’t have much energy, which was strange for you. Your time with Steve was quiet – reading, watching him draw, walking, falling asleep together. Neither of you talked much about what happened, and sometimes you wished you were brave enough to bring it up. He took such care when he was with you, letting you lead and doing what made you comfortable, that you wondered if his feelings had changed from boyfriend to big brother. Sometimes, Bucky was easier to talk to – there was less shared history, less tension, and fewer expectations, which was a welcome relief.
What’s Up is such a great song. I can’t wait to see what you come up with.
For my theme, I found it at http://evilqueenedthemes.tumblr.com/ She has a bunch of amazing themes. All I did was play with the html code a bit to make it my own.
