He'd never wanted to be something else that could cause Bucky pain, never wanted to be a vulnerability that could be used against him. Here they are, a mess of pain and fear where Bucky'll do anything to keep Sam alive and Sam'll do anything to take away just a little bit of that suffering.
Bucky is his weakness, too. And he's terrified right now, because he doesn't want to go back into that tank and he knows him being in here means he's not able to actually give Bucky any kind of medical attention and he's so damn tired, but he -
Love isn't a weakness. They might be more vulnerable to some things but they are stronger because of each other, and all he's gotta do is look at Bucky to feel himself even out again.
When Bucky opens his eyes, Sam is there, pulling him closer and kissing him to breath air back into his lungs.
You're never gonna have to do this alone again, Sam promises without quite saying the words. No matter what happens, no matter what the programming does, Sam'll always be here to help him get through it until they can fight back.
