Of Old Wounds and New Friendships

“He needs to know, Buck,” Steve whispered. “He needs to know how much I regret what I did. Everything. The lying, the fighting... all of it. I don't expect anything. Not after... I just want him to know that I'm sorry. I truly am."Bucky sighed heavily and leaned his head back against the seat. Steve wasn't the only one. A long time ago, Bucky had heard that the only way to heal old wounds is to make peace with your demons. Only in this scenario, he was the demon who had inflicted those wounds.He desperately craved redemption for his sins.The last time he’d seen Tony stark was when he and Steve had left him to die in the cold. And now, they were going to his home. He should be afraid, considering they were going to be living under his roof for the foreseeable future. But all he wanted to do was beg for forgiveness from the very person he was terrified to face.
