It's all coming back to me now (Spot and Bucky)

[brooklynishere]

When the Hydra facility had been raided, the last thing anybody expected to find was a 16 year old kid on ice, and yet there he'd been. Steve had been the one to stop the Hydra scientist from shutting down the life support, but they hadn't got there in time to prevent the destruction of a good half the facility's records - including the ones about who the kid was or why he was there.

So what choice did they have but to wake him up and find out?

He was uncooperative at first, refused to give them any details other than the name 'Spot' and kept threatening to fight anybody that came close, though they managed to work out pretty easily that he was from Brooklyn and he'd been on the ice almost as long as Steve had. It's when he overhears a comment about Bucky that he seems to change his tune.

"Bucky Barnes?" he asks, and while he still seems wary, for the first time since he woke up he says something actually helpful "I'll talk to him. Tell him the name's Sean Conlon."

Comments

Bucky blinks and lets out a slow breath. "It's really hard to make me mad Peter, is this hero stuff, or something else?" He asks taking a sip from his coffee mug.

[brooklynishere]

"We're um... we're at the hospital... it's okay everybody's fine we're both fine. Well, I mean, Spot's not fine but it's not really serious. We're just waiting in the ER now 'cause, um, Spot sort of... maybe... broke his arm a little bit?"

The hesitance in his voice is obvious, he really doesn't want to be the one giving this news, but Spot's waiting inside in case he gets called and it kind of was Peter's fault so he agreed to make the call.

Bucky pinches the bridge of his nose. "Which hospital are you at?" He asks walking to the coat closet and pulling on his jacket and shoving his feet into his boots. He'll take the jeep. "Only a little broken is better than super broken I suppose... you can tell me how it happened when I get there."

[brooklynishere]

"Yes Mr Barnes." Peter agrees, cowed, after letting him know where they were. He's not looking forward to that conversation... but hey, if it's not happening until he gets here, at least Spot has to be part of it too.

That done, he heads back inside to find Spot, who's still waiting, and let him know that his father's on his way.

"How mad did he sound?" Spot asks with a wince.

"...not that bad actually, he might be okay? ... Or he might be waiting until he gets here to yell at you. Hard to tell." Peter says unhelpfully.

Bucky gets to the hospital and kicking the snow off his boots before walking into the ER.

He looks around and sees Spot still waiting weird for a broken arm.

He walks over and arches a brow, "So either it's not broken, or you told them it just hurt..." He chides a little.

[brooklynishere]

"You told him it was broken?" Spot shoots a glare at Peter before looking back at his dad "I don't think it's broken, it's probably fine."

Spoiler alert, it's definitely broken.

"Did you even check-in at the desk?" He laughs a little kneeling down to take a look arching a brow. "You're fingers are going purple... We don't need to metal arms in this family." He huffs pulling the insurance cards out of his wallet and nodding for Spot to walk over with him to the desk.

[brooklynishere]

"He was supposed to while I called you." Peter says, glancing over at Spot, who shrugs - he's not going to say it but he'd figured he could convince them to stop making a fuss and take him home.

He glanced down at his hand and was about to say something about how it was probably just bruising but his father was already heading to the desk so he sighs and follows him over there, and he doesn't protest too much because... okay actually that does look pretty bad and maybe it is broken.

Bucky talks to the nurse at the front desk. "He called me but he never checked in, looking at it I'm pretty sure it's broken."

The nurse looks at Spot's arm and the color. He takes Spot's unbroken wrist and puts an admitting band around it.

A few minutes later they call Spot. "You want me to go back with you?"

[brooklynishere]

"...no it's okay." he says after a moment, not wanting to be a baby about it (he might have considered it - if Peter hadn't been there). "I'll see you in a bit."

He gives them both a nod and heads after the doctor.

[not_a_commie]

"Alright if your sure, pick a cool color for the wrap." He says, "Guess I'll just go chat with Peter." He smirks a little.

[brooklynishere]

"Please don't embarrass me." Spot groans, wondering if maybe he should have agreed to have Bucky come with him just to prevent that from happening, but it's too late now so he gives one last concerned glance towards both Peter and his father and leaves.

"Um, hi Mr Barnes.." Peter smiles nervously.

[not_a_commie]

"Peter... we saved the world together, you can call me Bucky." He says easily. "So what happened?"

[brooklynishere]

Ah, the question he's been dreading, and no Spot here to back him up.

"We were just hanging out and, um, well we were talking about superhero stuff and I showed him my webshooters and he wanted to try them out and.. it didn't go so well." He explains guiltily

[not_a_commie]

"Well at least it was just stupid stuff, and not something else," Bucky says rolling his eyes a little. "You're lucky he didn't break his neck." Bucky sighs rubbing his face a little. "You both have to be more careful."

[brooklynishere]

Peter hangs his head, he knows Bucky's right - they didn't realise what would happen but they still should have thought it through.

"Are you going to ground him for it?"
