Games and Names

Third Person POV
Bucky led Yelena into the compound and to the common room where Tony, Steve, and Sam were. The three boys who were desperate to discover the identity of the blonde girl gave questioning looks to the former Winter Soldier. "Can she stay the night," Bucky said, gesturing to Yelena, "she could use a little help I'm sure."

The three boys who wanted to know the girl were slightly disappointed, bit Tony spoke up nonetheless saying, "Sure."

Nobody else seemed to want to speak, so Yelena spoke up, "Captain Rogers?" she cleared her throat, collecting Steve's attention, "May I challenge you to an arm wrestle?"

Steve was confused, yet he replied, "Sure... Umm... We can sit down at that table over there."

Yelena and Steve walked over to a little table in the corner of the room. Tony, Sam, and Bucky gathered around them. Yelena put her elbow on the table, hand out in front of her. Steve mirrored her action wearily. "I'll go easy on you," Steve promised.

"No need," Yelena said, her accent pulling through.

The two blondes grasped each other's hands and Steve counted down. Within seconds, Steve's hand hit the table with a violent bang. "Ouchie," Steve shouted.

A chorus of laughter fell over everyone in the room but Steve. "Are you a super duper soldier or something? How could you do that?"

"I... Um... Well..." Yelena sputtered.

Before Yelena could string together a coherent sentence, her father interrupted, "She's my daughter and her mother is a badass."

Looks of shock covered everyone in the room. Yelena especially, as she said, "Geez, Dad you just came right out with it."

"You have a reason to hide kiddo?"

"Well no... But you could've given me a heads up."

"Eh, can't change the past, if I could I would."

Every one else in the room recovered from their shock. Tony first saying, "So you created that."

"I'm a person too, you rust bucket."

"I'm not a rust bucket lady. By the way, what's your name?"

"Yelena," Bucky replied.

Steve added into the conversation, "Barnes?"

"Yeparoo," Yelena said, "Yelena Winnifred Barnes."

"After your mom Buck?" Steve asked.

"After my mom," Bucky reaffirmed. He decided he would explain the first name too, saying, "Yelena, her first name, was her mother's idea. Her mother was an acquaintance with a woman named Ingrid. Ingrid's husband was having an affair with a woman named Yelena. So naturally, Ingrid hired Yelena's mother, to kill the Yelena affair girl.

So naturally, she showed up at this Yelena girls door with a gun, and she is in the middle of a book club meeting. So the girl, with a gun pointed at her face says, "This is just like what happens in this book we are reading, wanna join us? There's tea." Now one thing about Yelena's mother, she can't resist tea. Absolutely loves it. So she puts her gun back in her pocket, and asks for a glass of tea, and sits through the goddamn book club meeting. She drank like a gallon of tea.

When she got back to me, she was telling me this story and I was thinking how nuts this girl was. Yelena. And Yelena's mom said, "We should name our child Yelena. Y'know, to commemorate how tea saves lives?"

That was one week before she was born. We were sitting there, on a clock from the Red room, we had thirteen seconds to come up with a name and that was the first thing that popped into our heads, we said it at the same time." As Bucky finished up his story, he smiled, remembering his late wife.
