Things were getting better, slowly but surely. He was sleeping better, and that was a small victory, but a victory nonetheless. There were still plenty of things that complicated their lives here, not the least of which included whatever other curve balls that Madison Valley wanted to throw at them. It was nice to have the chance to just enjoy the peace and quiet of a normal Friday afternoon. Dinner was in the oven, a roast that was the epitome of low and slow cooking. Pretty much everything else was ready to go once it got closer to dinner time.
Keith was down for his nap, the garden was in working order, and Bucky was sitting out on the back porch with a book and a beer, the baby monitor right next to him, when Steve came outside to join him. He marked his place in his book and set it aside so he could actually talk to his best friend. They'd talked some after he'd come back, more again after he and Kara talked as well, but Bucky knew how Steve felt about not wanting to know things about a future he hadn't lived through yet. Even if it was good news, even if it meant success, the losses would weigh heavy. They always did.
"Done for the day?" he asked, although that much seemed obvious given that Steve was home. Still, he wasn't quite sure how or where to start.
