This Is Me

Being told constantly as you grow up that you are a monster, that you are poison, does nothing to help self esteem. Steve Rogers was used to being told to live a lie, was used to hiding what he was so that people wouldn't be afraid of him. No one can be afraid of Captain America, even if its at Steve Rogers expense. No one really cares for Steve Rogers after all its all about the Shield, and he is so, so lonely. That is, until he meets Bucky Barnes. Can the self confident and charming kindergarten teacher bring some real happiness to a man who was sure he had lost everything? Bucky is determined to do his best, no matter how much the shy Captain seems to resist.
