As they got into their room, Steve dropped down heavily onto the edge of the bed. “Wanda… Sam… Vision… T’Challa… Bucky…” he trailed off, feeling tears in his eyes again. “Peter… he was just a kid…” He looked up at his mate, talking about Peter Parker. “Stephen… Quill… we lost almost everyone, Peter… Shuri is sixteen years old and she’s having to rule Wakanda now with your mother’s help. They think… she and Bruce… they think they can find a way to reverse what’s happened but everyone needs time to heal… to… regroup…” He dropped his head into his hands, his whole body shaking.

Peter had intended on going to at least get some clothes for Steve to change into, but the moment Steve collapsed, the wolf couldn’t just leave Steve there. He was immediately next to his mate, perching behind him and wrapping his arms around Steve’s body. “Hey, we’ll figure it out. I promise. I’m right here, we all are.” he assured, kissing Steve’s head. “I know I don’t quite fully understand it, but I know I hurt when you hurt and seeing you like this is the worst pain I have ever imagined. What can I do?”

“I don’t know,” he answered in a shaky voice. “I just… I don’t even know what to do… I don’t know what to tell you to do. I just… I need time, Peter. Right now, I just need time and trying to get used to being back here at home again. I need to see the rest of the pack, too. I need to know they’re all okay. Let’s do that first. I can smell the food they’ve cooked. I know they’re wanting to see me.”

Peter closed his eyes and pressed another kiss to Steve’s head and held him close. “Let’s get you cleaned up.” he offered. The only one the pack lost was Theo, but there’s no great loss there.” he frowned a little. “Everyone is going to ask questions. I can tell them to leave it alone for now. We all need to grieve before we can regroup.” He carefully climbed from the bed to go get clothes. “Do you want a shower before we head downstairs?” he asked, looking through their drawers to grab clothes.

Steve looked up at him slowly. “You… you remember…” he said quietly. “You remember us?” He set the bottle down on the coffee table and gripped Bucky’s hand in his own. “What do you remember? When did you remember?”

Bucky couldn’t deny how good it felt to feel Steve’s hand in his own. “I’ve remembered bits and pieces.” he replied. “I remember going out and pretending we were takin’ girls out but we’d never bring them home and we shared your bed.” he replied. “I remember always bein’ worried about ya when ya got real sick. Singing ya to sleep and the slow dances in the kitchen…” he licked his lips and smiled, his accent coming out thicker as emotion welled in his chest at confirmation that he wasn’t dreaming. “It started before you found me in Bucharest. But it wasn’t clear enough, and real small bits, like flashes.” he explained. “Being out of cryo finally gave me time to put them together. That’s part of why I asked Shuri to help me find you. I needed to find you.”

( OPEN TO: MALES )

Seth knew they shouldn’t be doing this. But it didn’t stop him from flirting with the older male every chance he got. He was surprised they hadn’t killed each other yet, but maybe that was a good thing. “Who said not to mix business with pleasure? Let’s talk this over with a date…” He grinned, trying his damnedest not to worry about the gun pointing at him. Besides, he had a knife, he could have easily won this with how close they were. Which he was sure the other knew. Seth was practically famous for his knife wielding skills, and everyone knew that if you didn’t have the distance for a gun, then someone with a knife could easily win. “C’mon. One date. You and me.”

Elliot tilted his head as he watched the male, the hand in his jacket tracing slender fingers over a knife. “And why would one date change the fact that your boss sent you to try and kill me? You aren’t the first one he’s sent, you know. Unless you’re lookin’ for a way out, like I did.” he smirked.
