House-Hunting
Bucky (it was still really hard to think of himself by that name) walked down the streets of New York toward the next loft on his list, which was only a block or two away. Every few steps he corrects his movements so that he doesn't bump someone or only brushes against them, years of training allowing him to slide through the crowd with ease. The movements are so ingrained that they're second-nature. He could do this on the streets of New York, Tokyo or Moscow, in his sleep. 

His "baby-sitter" could as well.

He knows why Fury sent Natalia with him and he's annoyed; not at her, but at the situation. They still don't know if he's completely deprogrammed, but if he isn't then Natalia is the best person to deal with him. She could make the tough choice, if necessary.

"You know...you /really/ don't have to do this." James says to Natalia, for the third time as they enter the building on 4th and Baker. He rings the bell and the door opens upon a small, older woman who smiles at him.

"Hello, Mr. Barnes. My office told me you'd be stopping in today. The loft is ready for you to view." she says, looking between the two of them.

"Attitudes toward Russians have softened somewhat since the Berlin Wall came down," Natasha said as she stood and picked up her plate. "That's not to say they'll welcome you with open arms, just that it won't be as bad as it would have been twenty years ago."

She offered to take his plate. "It could be worse. We'll deal with that stuff as it comes up."

"Hey, stop right there. You bought dinner, so I'll handle dishes." James says, picking up his plate to help her clear the table.

"I just don't want to make things tough for you and Steve, is all, Natalia. You guys have had time to build up your reputations and people trust you. Backin' me could make people see you differently, and I don't want you guys havin' to choose between me and people who've come to trust you.

If it comes to that, I'll...figure out something else to do with my life." James says. Granted, he has /no/ idea what that would be, because he's never known anything else.

As sad as it was to say, he's always been good at killing people and fighting wars. The market for both of those skills was high in some places and low in others.

"It will be fine, James," she said as she led him into the kitchen. She placed her plate in the sink. "The world is a much different place than it was back during the 50's and 60's."

She reached out and took his hand after he had put his plate in the sink. "No matter what happens, I will always be here for you and have your back."

"Thank you, Natalia." James says, bringing her hand to his lips.

"You being here makes me feel a lot better about all of this." he says.

She smiled when he kissed her hand. "What else makes you feel better?" she asked in a low sultry voice. "Maybe there's something I can do."

"For the answer to /that/ question, we should talk about that in the bedroom." James grins, leaning in to kiss her neck.

"Come into my parlor, my love," Natasha half said half moaned. She had been without him for too long.

James lifts her and tosses her over his shoulder, carrying her to bedroom.

"I hope you didn't have plans the rest of the night, Natalia." he says.

The rare sound of laughter came from the Black Widow. "I plan to ravish you all night, James," she said as he carried her to the bedroom.

"Let's see how far you've come from that girl I used to know." James says with a grin as he closes the door behind them.
