Steve grunted when Bucky began struggling against him again, this time with a lot more energy and vigor. He was definitely strong, a lot more than before. Just how and when did he get like this? But those were just more things he didn't know about Bucky.

The Russian was also surprising. Steve couldn't understand it, but he imagined that it wasn't anything nice.

He let out a little cry of pain and stumbled back from the blow, instantly feeling blood leak from his nose. Steve could still feel the pain from the impact ringing in his head, but he ignored it and went straight for Bucky again, reaching to grab him from behind and wrestle his arm to his side.
