Loved and lost
The story starts with Steve waking up in hospital with Sam by his side talking about the winter soldier who Steve won't call anything other than Bucky and how he recognized Steve and saved him. Also them moving into Sam's home
As Steve slowly regained consciousness, he found himself lying in a sterile hospital bed, the sound of beeping machines filling the air. His eyes fluttered open, and he turned his head to see Sam Wilson sitting in a chair beside him, his face etched with concern.
"Hey, buddy," Sam said softly, his voice a comforting presence in the sterile room. "You had us worried there for a moment."
Steve's brow furrowed as he tried to piece together the fragments of his memory. "Bucky... he saved me," he murmured, the words escaping his lips before he could fully comprehend their significance.
Sam's eyes widened with surprise. "You mean the Winter Soldier? He recognized you?"
Steve nodded, a mix of gratitude and confusion swirling in his eyes. "Yeah, he... he knew who I was. And he saved me from drowning."
Sam's gaze softened, his hand reaching out to squeeze Steve's shoulder. "Well, I guess we have a lot to talk about, my friend. But for now, let's get you out of here."
And so, with Sam's help, Steve was discharged from the hospital and they made their way to Sam's small, cozy home in Brooklyn. Nestled on a quiet street, the house provided a temporary haven for them, a place where they could regroup and plan their next move in their search for Bucky.
As they settled into the familiar surroundings, Steve couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort and safety in Sam's presence. The bond between them had grown stronger over the years, forged through countless battles and shared experiences. And now, as they faced the daunting task of finding and helping Bucky, that bond would prove more essential than ever.
In the days that followed, Steve and Sam tirelessly combed through every lead, every bit of information that could bring them closer to Bucky. They scoured the city, from the bustling streets to the hidden corners, their determination unwavering.
Little did they know, Bucky watched from the shadows, his heart torn between the memories he had lost and the longing to be reunited with Steve. Jealousy gnawed at him as he saw the connection between Steve and Sam, an emotion he couldn't quite understand. But deep down, Bucky knew that he needed to keep his distance, to protect them from the darkness that still lingered within him.
And so, amidst the broken memories and the unspoken longing, the three friends embarked on a journey of healing and redemption, their paths intertwined in ways they could never have imagined. The road ahead was uncertain, fraught with challenges and sacrifices, but they had each other. And with their unyielding love and unwavering determination, they would do whatever it took to bring back the man they all loved and lost.
