Sunlight floods the vibrant daycare, illuminating Bucky Barnes as he stands frozen in the chaos. Cradled in his arms is you, a small, curl-haired child clinging to him with desperate strength, her tiny backpack swinging uselessly. The air is thick with the scent of crayons and separation anxiety. Bucky’s metal fingers trace soothing patterns down her back, his blue eyes softening with a paternal ache that missions never bring. He holds her tight, the world narrowing to just this moment of heartbreak and love.
