Chapter Text
The sound of the train mixed with the harsh push and pull of the wind; creating a white noise that burned with the cold of their ears.
Its the firm clasp of Steve's hand on Bucky's that brings the hypnotic lure of that white noise to a near halt.
Its the far too deafening thud of their pulse piercing through them as they sit on the train floor.
The rumbling beneath their adrenaline laced bodies begin to ride the wave of "That was too close...".
Neither saying a word, they look to each other for the sign that confirms the reality of what almost happened.
Their hands never having pulled apart, still firmly held in the life altering grasp.
With a shared sign of relief and acceptance, they hurry to their feet. An unspoken agreement is shared with a nod:
"We can't think about this right now."
