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 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)

	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)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:21 pm UTC (link)
	"I might have to do that." He nodded. "Thought not being on my own might help, too. When I brought it up before getting sent back to this time, Dad was just worried about something happening while I was by myself. Like, you know how sometimes the inhaler doesn't always help?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	Bucky chuckled a little, "Well, I been helping with that since I was about eight so that shouldn't be so worrying. And Mary Ellen is just a few floors up, she'd be able to help with anything I couldn't." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	Steve nodded. "So that should help a little. And you're familiar with my own personal pharmacy." He made a face. The medication did help most of his problems but he hated taking it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, I know." He also knew how much Steve hated taking all the meds he had to but he knew enough about them to help make sure he got what he needed when he needed it. "And hey, they did it too, back in the 40's, so he knows it'll work out." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 07:48 pm UTC (link)
	"There is one thing that I'm kind of surprised about." Steve smirked as he sat up straight. "I'm really surprised you let me mope this long." He chuckled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 07:53 pm UTC (link)
	Bucky just laughed softly. "What can I say, I'm glad to see your mopey ass." he brought a hand up to ruffle Steve's hair. "But, you wanna double check, make sure you got everything? I haven't been around much since the city decided to reshuffle itself but if you needed something we could probably find it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 08:05 pm UTC (link)
	Steve wrinkled his nose and ran his fingers through his hair to fix it. "I know the med school ended up at Mom and Dad's so I'll have to bring those, but I'll check the rest." He smiled. "Wanna help? I'm giving you free reign to snoop in my stuff." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	babybuck 2016-04-03 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	"Course!" Bucky laughed, standing up and then offering a hand to help Steve up too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sickbuttsteve 2016-04-03 08:14 pm UTC (link)
	Steve took the hand and got to his feet. He headed to his room and decided to check the closet first. He hadn't yet realized there was an open sketch book on the desk and the page it was open to was one of a few rather suggestive drawings of his best friend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Bucky hadn't intended to see the sketchbook, or even noticed it right away, but he knew how much the scores of drawing books and supplies meant to Steve so it was one of the things he wanted to check first. Supplies they could replace easy enough. When he got to the desk though, he had to admit he was torn between being surprised and flattered and maybe a little tiny bit embarrassed, so of course he had to tease. "So...practicing some figure drawing?"
