Twilight Love

Bucky was a little impatient. After everyone searched the vicinity, they found no trace of Edward. Now she was very worried about whether this friend was safe, but she could only search aimlessly along the nearby alleys.

Suddenly he heard footsteps.

A familiar voice came from the corner of the alley behind him.

"Bucky..."

After hearing Edward's voice, Bucky turned around happily and called his name.

"Edward, is that you? Dude, you scared the hell out of me!"

As he spoke, he raised his foot and wanted to run towards the corner where the other party was staying.

"do not come!"

The other party suddenly yelled and stopped him.

Bucky didn't know, so he looked at the figure whose face could not be seen clearly because of the darkness.

"I heard that you were attacked. I'm worried."

"Oh, I'm fine. I fell from the top. You know the building is not too high. After I fell, I walked away."

Edward hid half of his body behind the wall, only showing a vague outline to the other party, "Don't worry, that monster has already run away..."

"Edward, are you okay?" Bucky called out uncertainly, he didn't want to find out what that monster was now?He was only worried about his partner's well-being. "Let me see what you look like now."

"No!" The other party's voice became urgent, "I'm sorry Bucky, I ruined your dance tonight..."

"It's okay, but at least let me check if it's okay."

Bucky tried to take two steps forward, but was stopped.

"No...Actually," Edward's tone sounded a bit weak, "I'm not feeling well right now, maybe I'm sick..."

The other party seemed to be crying, which made Bucky even more worried.

"At least let me take you home—"

"Please Bucky, I'm not a girl, you should take care of those two ladies."

Bucky wanted to say something, but was interrupted immediately.

"I'm terrible right now...I just want to be alone, sorry..."

The weak sound of apology disappeared into the air, making Bucky stunned, and then he reacted and rushed up to check, but there was no one in the alley.

Seeing Bucky looking for himself with a worried face, Edward, who had already jumped to a high place, couldn't help feeling sad.

Sorry, friend.

Only you can't do it, I absolutely can't stand it, you look at me in such a mess now like a monster...

Edward returned to their temporary apartment building in Brooklyn and collapsed on the sofa almost collapsed.

Esme was extremely nervous, but Edward was in no mood to explain.

Carlisle has already gone to help him deal with the aftermath, but now he has no intention of thinking about how much trouble he has caused, and he does not want to think about how to remedy it. He knows that because of this accident, he and his family must leave Brooklyn up.

Edward's heart felt like it was stuffed with cotton all night long. It is undeniable that he had already missed his friend before he left...

In fact, he knew that even without these things, they would still leave sooner or later. After all, vampires couldn't live with "humans" for a long time, but in the end they didn't even have the chance to leave good memories, and the pent-up depression burst out like this.

But the physique of a vampire made him unable to even secrete tears.

Look, Bucky, we're different...

-

Edward didn't know how to stay at home for a few days, and he didn't know how Carlisle dealt with that matter, and he didn't want to think about how Bucky was doing now, whether he would hate him for leaving without saying goodbye that night.

But in fact it was only two days before the prom.

During the period, when Bucky took Steve home, he asked Carlisle Edward in private, and said that he was very worried about the other party's condition.

"Don't worry, he's fine, he just broke a little skin that day, you know I mentioned it to you before," Carleigh paused, "He's not in good health."

"I'm sorry, sir..." Bucky felt that if he hadn't invited the other party without permission, maybe it wouldn't have been so bad.

"It's not your fault, Edward's illness is psychological." Carlisle said it in a very general way, although he could use a lot of professional medical terms to explain it flawlessly, but he didn't think it was necessary. "I always wanted to keep him from being stimulated, but he always wanted to have friends of the same age as ordinary boys."

After hearing this, Bucky blamed himself even more. His friend seemed to be suffering from a very serious illness.

The handsome doctor just patted the other person on the shoulder, indicating that his hair boy was still waiting for him to leave together in the ward.

The young man left dejectedly.

"Why have you been there for so long?" Steve waited for him for a long time.

Ba Jiqiang cheered up and said nothing, then left the hospital with his arms around the other party's neck.

He never told Steve that he and Edward went to the prom, because he had said that he only wanted to go with him, of course he knew that Steve might not mind, he invited someone else, But subconsciously, I don't want the other party to know.

How could Steve not be able to see Bucky's sullenness, but if he didn't say anything, he wouldn't ask. This is the tacit understanding and respect between each other.

After sending Steve home, he saw the returned conscription medical examination in the mailbox, and knew that the other party had gone to the conscription office before.

Since he joined the army, his friend has been obsessed with wanting to join the army, even falsifying his own information.

"How many times is this the first time? You know that if someone finds out that you are falsifying information, you will go to jail."

Bucky flipped through the stack of papers casually.

"I will not give up."

Bucky knew Steve's stubbornness, and it would be fine if he joked a few words on weekdays, but these two days were in a really bad mood, and he suddenly lost his temper by making excuses.

"What do you think war is? It kills people! Why do you have to be a soldier!"

Even though he knew that it was impossible for the army to enlist a man with Steve's physical fitness, he didn't mean to belittle this friend, but he hoped that the other party would just stay in their hometown, find a job, marry a wife and have a bunch of children Wa'an's life is better than going to that damn battlefield.

"I know it's a war and everyone is dying for their country, but what can I do?"

The foolish boy in Brooklyn will only keep moving forward in a daze, and will never know how to give in.

"Can't you live a good life?" His Bucky smiled wryly and threw a pile of conscription forms into the trash can. "Going to the battlefield is to risk your life, you know?"

"What about you, will you die too?"

Steve and Bucky stared at each other, speechless for a moment.

The war has begun, and everyone will die. Even if they don't serve as soldiers, civilians cannot escape the fire of war.

Bucky sighed secretly.

They are not afraid of death, as long as they have seen the damage caused by war, they will not feel that it has nothing to do with them.They're just terrified of dying for nothing.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. Tomorrow, my regiment will move to the next garrison area. Let's go to an interesting place for the last night."

Pretentiously relaxed tone, it is obvious that he does not want to continue this topic.

"where to?"

The other party cooperated and turned over what happened just now.

Bucky took the newspaper that he had just casually picked up under the door, with the headline that the Stark Corporation exhibition will be held tonight was printed on it, and handed it to Steve——

"Go to the future."

If only we could hug each other in the future.

If so, we still have a future.

"Are you better today?"

As night approached, Ai Laier drew the curtains at home.

It was only half a month since they arrived in this town. Fortunately, during this period of time, it was a continuous rainy day, and it was a rare sunny day. It was also cloudy and there was no sun, so they were able to stay in the human settlement for so long this time. long time.

"Tomorrow seems to be cloudy too, and there is no wind, which is very suitable for a long trip by boat."

Esme said to her husband.

Edward, who had been lying on the sofa like a dead dog, finally had a reaction.

Are you leaving tomorrow?

"Come on, my child, a different environment will be better for you."

Maybe he needs to find them another family or two, so they can try to travel around like before, and maybe they will meet a good partner.

Edward didn't express any opinions, his adoptive father was always right, he just had to obey.

Just saying no regrets, is false.

Carlisle shook his head helplessly, as if he had nothing to do with him.

"Tonight, I still have some work at hand to hand over, so I will stay in the hospital. We will leave tomorrow morning."

"I'll go with Carlisle and pick up some necessities."

Esme winked at him.

So give you a night to say goodbye to your boys, okay?

Edward froze for a moment, and finally showed his first comfortable expression in these days.

Thank you, the boy moved his lips and said silently.

-

After participating in the imaginative Stark Future Expo, it was almost 11 o'clock, and the two big boys went home after saying goodbye.

Brooklyn hasn't imposed a curfew yet, but there are almost no pedestrians on the road at this point, and Bucky walks quickly towards the house.

A tall figure loomed under the dim streetlights.

Bucky slowed down and didn't pay much attention to it at first. After all, there are many drunkards who can't find a home after being drunk in the middle of the night, until he heard the other party call his name.

"Hi, Bucky..."

Edward showed a pale face in the dim light.

He has been waiting here for a long time, this is the only way for Bucky to go home. In fact, he has been to Bucky's house before, but it seems that only his parents are there, so he secretly ran from the roof to his upstairs I took a look at my room, and I didn't find that he was at home, so I waited here.

"Edward!" Bucky realized, isn't this the brat who suddenly disappeared a few days ago?It also caused him to worry for a long time, but now he actually stood here and greeted him. He hurriedly rushed forward and hammered the opponent's strong chest. "Are you okay? I was so worried that day!"

"So sorry for screwing up your date that day, Bucky."

Edward parted his lips and smiled.

"Tell me quickly, what happened that day, they said they saw a beast, is it true?"

"Don't talk about it, I'm here to say goodbye to you today."

He really didn't know how to talk about the situation that day, so he had no choice but to get straight to the point.

"Farewell? Are you leaving?"

"My family and I have decided to go back to Europe, tomorrow's boat."

Before leaving, he wanted to see his friend again and say goodbye in person.

Europe...By the way, Bucky remembered that Dr. Cullen seemed to come to New York with the Red Cross from Europe to help.

are you leavingWith Bambi's eyes, he stared at Edward silently for a while.

"Hey, got it? I'm leaving Brooklyn with the troops tomorrow, too."

The sadness of the upcoming parting seemed to be particularly heavy, and the two of them didn't know how to break the deadlock for a while.

The moths circled the already dim street lamps, dimming and brightening the light.

Let the expressions on the faces of the two be vague.

"Then, goodbye and good luck."

"You too, take care."

Bucky felt gloomy in his heart. Being an optimist, he couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere, so he picked up his steps and walked towards home.

"Bucky!"

After a while, Edward ran after him and hugged him.

His cold palm rested on Bucky's neck, carrying the warmth of the big boy himself, and brought him into his arms, sniffing the fresh and sweet smell of blood like mint, this was his only indulgence.

"Goodbye, Bucky, no matter where I go, I will never forget you!"

You are my first friend.

"Goodbye, Edward."

Patting the other party's broad shoulders, the boy said softly.

The two cherished each other, but they knew in their hearts, goodbye, I don't know if there is a chance to meet again.

In the autumn of 1941, Bucky left New York with the army, and Edward returned to Europe, which had been in constant war. After the Pearl Harbor incident broke out in the same year, the frontline warfare began to tighten, and even the requirements for conscription were much lower. After trying to enroll in the army for the first time, he was lucky enough to enter the army's training camp to serve.

The war has already begun in full swing, and the flames of war are like ritual songs, commemorating the bewildered youth of the young people.
