A Rolling Stream |☆|》Stark X Barnes

Madelynn's POV

The two girls looked at me with the biggest smiles I've ever seen. I laughed silently shaking my head. "Ok. That's all. You can return to what you were doing before." Dad smiled at me.

I nodded once and was taken out the room by the girls.

💫Time skip 💫

We were heading down to my lab. "What time are you guys leaving?" I asked. "What do you mean by 'you' Lynn?" Nat asked placing her hand on the screen near the lab's door.

"HYDRA might've dispatched agents throughout the area looking for me. Better safe than sorry I guess." I responded. "That makes sense." "Natasha Romanoff." FRIDAY announced.

We soon entered the room and I scribbled down a list of necessary information before handing it to the girls. Shortly after they left the compound.

I sat at my desk, working on a new formula and design for an object that's been on my mind for the past week. It would be a back up suit just incase I needed it and to help monitor my water 'activity'.

The formula seemed correct and the design was almost perfect but I just needed the best inventor to go through it and fix any errors.

I picked up my folder and headed to the elevator and went looking for dad.

While I walked through the compound a memory came to mind. One of HYDRA. A horrible memory of the torture I was given the day before dad saved me.

The fear came back to me. All the emotions I felt came back as well. I began to feel an overwhelming panic wash over me and started to have trouble breathing. Tears formed in my eyes as my chest began to hurt.

I fell onto my knees feeling that I was about to pass out.

Bucky's POV

I was heading to my bedroom to take a shower when I heard a quiet whimpering. I was intrigued and quickened my pace to then spot Madelynn on her knees.

She was the source of the whimpering. I approached her to see that she was trembling violently. It then hit me that she was having an anxiety attack.

I dashed to her and knelt infront of her, holding her shoulders. Tears were streaming down her face as she continuously muttered 'no'.

Her breathing was also shaky. "Stark I need you to take deep breaths." I said staring into her fear filled eyes. She still looked loss. "Madelynn." I called out, slightly getting her back to reality.

"I'm here ok. No one will and can't hurt you." I told her. She nodded out of breath. "I need you to take deep breaths with me." She nodded again. "Breathe in at 1 and breathe out at 5 ok?"

"1..." We both inhaled. "2. 3. 4. 5." We both exhaled. We practiced until she calmed down. She was still trembling  and had tears rolling down her cheeks.

I hugged her to which she hugged back. I rubbed her back to calm her. "Its fine Maddie. We won't let anyone hurt you." I whispered to her. She nodded slowly.

After a while she gathered her items and stood up. I joined her shortly. "Thanks Bucky." She muttered. "Its fine. Where were you going?" I said placing my hands into my pocket.

"I was looking for dad to show him some work I've been working on." "I was just with them in the hangar." "Oh ok thanks Bucket." She smiled, returning to her original self.

I smiled back at her before we parted ways.

3rd person POV

Madelynn had arrived at the hangar. There she saw Pietro, Tony, Steve, Sam and Bruce. "Hey Maddie." Pietro smiled zooming to Madelynn. His smile soon disappeared when he saw the tear stains.

"You ok princessa?" He whispered since he didn't want Tony to scold him. "Yeah just wanted to show dad something." Maddie smiled at him.

"Sorry kid but we have a mission. Maybe later ok?" Tony told her as he adjust his watch, which when activated turned into his Iron Man suit.

It was shown that she was sad about the news. Tony used to watch all of her designs when she was younger.

"Yeah its ok. Good luck with your mission." She smiled raising her hand before heading out the hangar.

She headed to the training area to warm up until Peter came to the compound. Madelynn changed into a black sports bra and leggings before making her way to the treadmill.
