Summary
It’s been a year since Bucky was rescued, but he doesn’t feel saved. His world has shrunk to his gardening job, the apartment he shares with Natasha, and his meetings with his therapist, Sam—none of which stop him from shaking to pieces in the night. Some things change, and some things don’t, the day he walks into an art gallery and meets Steve.
This is a story about fear, trust, learning to glue things back together again, and how to love them for their broken places.

Summary
Sam could distinguish the tombstone from far away, before they even reached the row, jumping out at him like a familiar face in a crowd. His hand clenched around Steve's, and he tightened his grip on the bouquet of red poppies. Steve shot him a concerned glance.
He thought after two years it would get easier, but it never did.
Steve ran his thumb over Sam's trembling hand, and it was all Sam could do not to fall apart right there. He swallowed, taking several deep breaths before he spoke.
"Well... here's Riley.”
How Sam and Steve start dating after the helicarrier incident, and are learning how to share their lives. Steve goes with Sam to visit Riley's grave on the anniversary of his death.

Summary
"Listen, Mr. Rozanov." The general manager is talking out of the side of his mouth, his cigarette dropping ashes all over the hotel table. "We like you. We want you. We understand you are putting yourself under a fair amount of risk here, meeting with us like this. I hope it's obvious that if you play for us, we will set you up for a good life in Canada."
He pauses, looks Ilya in the eye. "But you have to understand, if you agree to this, you have to be prepared to leave with us right now."

Summary
Shane’s heart drops into his stomach. “Ilya,” he breathes. His vision goes blurry, throat tight. He tries to swallow it down and focus, shove his swirling thoughts into a neat little box, but it’s impossible. He feels—he might throw up, actually. “Are you seriously telling me you tried to fucking kill yourself?”
“Yes,” Ilya agrees blandly, “It did not work.”
Ilya calls Shane from the hospital. Shane handles it very normally.
