Description:

When Bucky Barnes is rescued from the horrors of his past by life-long friend, Steve Rogers, Bucky has to come to terms with the fact that not everyone hates him for what he did.

Learning to fit in and learning to love are things that aren't natural to him. He's on the road to recovery, for sure, but there's one hurdle he can't seem to clear, and that is a Stark Industry tech by the name of Veronica Edwards. The animosity he feels from her is a bitter contrast to the support he gets from the rest of the team and the feeling is most definitely mutual.

Can Bucky learn to find love when he can't even love himself? He's loved before, in a distant past he once knew, in which case could he be taught to love again? The heart is just another muscle, after all, so shouldn't love just be a muscle memory?

Notes:

This is the journey of Bucky Barnes as he learns to find love and acceptance in a place he least expects.

There's almost certainly going to be angst and smut, and hopefully a bit of a story too. I'm terrible at keeping my mind out of the gutter so don't be surprised if everything after part one is at least mature XD
