It was good that Steve came over to sit beside her; she needed someone to anchor her while she felt like she was being washed out to sea. She pressed a hand to her mouth, still staring down at those two marks, and only looked away from them when a hand came to rest on her shoulder.
Her hands dropping back into her lap, she glanced over at Steve and then to Bucky and back. "I don't know what to say," she offered quietly, sounding exactly like someone whose entire world had just been turned upside down. Because it had.
She had suddenly, all out of nowhere, been shoved into their lives and now they were supposed to... what? Get to know each other? Make room for her in their lives? She was an outsider who they knew nothing about. When it had just been Steve, it had seemed almost doable, but now with the two of them the entire thing was daunting and entirely overwhelming.
