Things with his parents had gone better than he expected, but it was still a little weird. He was able to talk his dad into letting him leave so that he could meet Bucky, but also so that he and Stacey could talk. He'd borrowed a pair of his dad's jeans and some sneakers, though he kept with the bright blue t-shirt he'd shown up in. It didn't take him long to get outside the apartments, checking his phone as he waited.

Bucky was more excited than he thought he'd be to have Steve here. He hadn't realized the distance he'd put between himself and a lot of the others until recently and, while he wanted to fix it, it'd been hard when most of them were either older or younger or had already established themselves here so much further than he had. And hell, maybe having an apartment of his own would help, rather than hiding at home under the guise of helping with the babies.

"I should've known that's where my shirt went." he teased lightly as he walked up to where Stevie was waiting. It was a little more faded than he remembered and obviously fit Steve far differently than it had him, but he knew it either way.

	Steve blushed a little bit and shrugged. "It's a good shirt." He grinned. "And you never asked for it back so...." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's fine Steve." Bucky laughed a little bit, leaning in to hug him. "It's good to see you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:41 am UTC (link)
	Steve hugged back and smiled. "Good to see you too." Even though for him it had only been a few hours since he'd seen his best friend. "So, should we start here or do you want to check out in the city and see if there's anything there?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 07:48 am UTC (link)
	Bucky shrugged a bit, "Honestly, I hadn't thought about it much. Did you see anything that looked cool? Or just want to be around some of the others?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:49 am UTC (link)
	"I wasn't really looking on the way here." He looked at the apartment building in front of them. "Let's start here since we're here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 07:52 am UTC (link)
	Bucky nodded, "Shall we?" he asked, over-dramatically offering his elbow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:54 am UTC (link)
	Steve took the offered elbow as he nodded. "We shall." He smirked. "Have you been able to get much sleep with all the babies around?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Bucky led them in to the door and toward one of the elevators, "It's not too bad. The triplets usually sleep through the night now and Maria tends not to cry much. It's only when someone gets real fussy that they ever wake me up." He didn't really mind much but a house full a babies was still a bit much sometimes, "It would be nice to have my own room though, I can't lie there."

	Steve nodded. "I can imagine." Though he'd always had his own room. "Which floor are we starting on?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 05:19 pm UTC (link)
	Bucky thought for a short moment, "Maybe stick to lower floors? Just in case elevators ever don't work or something?" He suggeated, knowing that growing up on the island had helped Steve end up a lot healthier than he'd heard about him being in the 40's but that he still had his asthma and got sick easy.

	Steve nodded. "I can usually make it to the third floor before I feel like I'm dying." He smirked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 05:41 pm UTC (link)
	Bucky poked the button for the second floor and leaned in the wall while they rode up. Once there he glanced around at the name plaques next to the four doors. "It looks like only 202 has anyone in it, so guess we could just pick one of the others?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, sounds good." He nodded again. Steve just looked at the doors and then picked 204. "This one." He opened the door and gestured for Bucky to enter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bucky stepped in to the apartment, he'd been in the apartments plenty before, but not before they'd been taken over by someone and personalized. "This looks kinda like it came from a catalog." he joked flopping on to one of the couches. "Still comfortable though." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	Steve chuckled. "It probably did." He went down the hall to check out the bedrooms. After a couple of minutes he came back into the living room, his eyes wide. "So....I found the rest of my stuff." He scratched his head. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 06:19 pm UTC (link)
	Bucky laughed, rolling off the couch to stand in front of him. "Guess it's decided then. I'll just have to tell my parents..." he knew they'd probably be sad to see him out of the house but he knew he'd be back all the time to help too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 06:31 pm UTC (link)
	"I haven't even brought it up yet." He made a face. "It is nice to not have to move any of my stuff, though." He chuckled. "Hey, you think it'll do the same for you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 06:41 pm UTC (link)
	"Let's find out." He started poking his head in to bedroom doors. "Apparently yes." he called from the door just across from Steve's stepping in and looking through it all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 06:45 pm UTC (link)
	Steve followed after Bucky and chuckled. "So you'll definitely have to tell them tonight." He grinned. "There's probably stuff for you to sleep in back at the house just for tonight, unless you want to go ahead and stay here." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 06:47 pm UTC (link)
	"I'll see what they say first and figure it out from there I think." he knew they'd probably support him and be okay with letting him do what he wanted to, but if they seemed particularly down about it he could definitely stay another night or two. "What do you think you'll do?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 06:51 pm UTC (link)
	Steve took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He sat on the edge of Bucky's bed. "I'm gonna spend at least one night there, I think." He nodded. "Tell them at breakfast." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 06:54 pm UTC (link)
	Bucky sat down next to him, "I think they'll appreciate that." he offered bumping Steve's shoulder with is gently. "And you won't be far at least." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	Steve smiled. "I don't know how dad's going to handle it." He sighed. "I was seven yesterday. Now I'm moving out." He shifted a little so he could comfortably rest his head on Bucky's shoulder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	"If it's rough you could always grab a few days clothes and stay for a bit. Or ask him what'd make it easier." Bucky suggested, leaning toward him so it'd be comfortable for Steve. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
