[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle

In short, Bucky fought hard to break through the Bat Family's defenses with the ring in his pocket, and finally walked up to Jason, knelt on one knee and proposed to him.

What's interesting is that he didn't know why Jason asked him to propose to him at that time. When he knew that Jason had the intention to get married, he immediately felt his pocket and found that he had just returned to SHIELD after a mission and didn't have his wallet with him, so he asked his friend to borrow money.

Captain America's response to his friend's request for money was, of course, to reach into his wallet and ask, "Do you need it urgently?"

Bucky: "Well, I need to buy a ring and propose now. It's urgent."

The captain didn't have enough money to buy a pair of rings, so Natasha finally took out her wallet and gathered the money for Bucky to buy the rings.

When Bucky knelt on one knee in front of Jason, holding a pair of platinum rings in his hand, Jason smiled and asked him to put the ring on his left ring finger, and then handed him the medical examination report.

Bucky didn't understand what was going on. After reading the report, he fell into silence for a long time.

Jason called out, "Bucky?"

Bucky held Jason's hands in his own. "I'm going to sell the Brooklyn apartment and buy a bigger one, otherwise it won't be enough for the kids to move around. Jay, do you think this one child is enough, or should we have more in the future?"

Jason: “…This one is enough.”

After all, he is almost 35 years old. What if his body cannot recover after giving birth to another child? He is not as young as when Damian was born. He can't run out and practice fighting with high-level assassins two months after giving birth.

Then Bucky went to get a vasectomy. Considering the super soldier's strong recovery ability, after the vasectomy, he rested for two days and immediately started preparing for the wedding.

Both parties were vigilantes with many friends, and the wedding was quite lively. Jason was only two months pregnant at the time, and no one could tell that he was pregnant. By the fourth month of pregnancy, it was a cold winter, and Jason wore loose clothes on the outside, and no one noticed anything wrong.

Only Cassandra, an insider, could not help but ask her brother, "Aren't you taking maternity leave?", as she watched her brother keep working.

Jason replied nonchalantly, "It's okay. I can wait two or three months before taking a break."

Two or three months later, Jason really took a four-month maternity leave, but although it was a vacation, he still managed S.W.O.R.D. through the Internet during that time, and nothing was out of control. The deputy director of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Bucky) also often helped him.

Cassandra was also convinced.

It was not until August of the following year that Jason, because he was really old, it was a bit difficult for him to give birth on his own, so he simply had a caesarean section in the operating room at home the day after his birthday.

The surgeon was Dr. Christine, who had become Mrs. Strange. Dr. Leslie was already old, and it was not easy for him to be on the operating table. Christine had excellent surgical skills and happened to have treated Jason before, so she understood Jason's body structure, so Bucky specially invited her over.

Jason had a strong drug resistance, and normal anesthesia couldn't keep him unconscious for too long, so less than half an hour after the little girl was born, Jason woke up.

He opened his eyes slightly and whispered, "Is anyone there?"

Immediately someone held his hand, and two different voices said "I'm here" at the same time.

Bucky kissed him on the forehead and sat beside him, looking at him tenderly. "Damian and Mulin are watching their sister in the incubator. Steve and Natasha are also there. Natasha made some diluted milk powder to feed her."

Jason had no breast milk to feed her child, but fortunately the little girl's parents had prepared enough money for milk powder before she was born.

Before the child was born, Jason contacted Natasha and hoped that she would serve as his daughter's godmother. Because neither Jason nor Bucky were women, but a girl needs female elders to guide her in life, and Natasha is an excellent woman in Jason's eyes.

Natasha considered carefully for a week and agreed to Jason's request. The next day, she carried a lot of baby supplies to his house to help set up the nursery.

Bucky decorated the nursery in their house, but many people including Maureen, Damian, Natasha, Alfred, Bruce, Dick, Tim, Cassandra and others helped. This luxurious and warm nursery was right next to Jason's, and there were many people inside, looking at the little princess curiously.

Bruce asked in a low voice: "Are you feeling okay?"

Jason felt himself for a moment and nodded: "Well, it's OK. I finally got rid of this ball. I won't have any more children in the future."

Bruce laughed and kissed him lightly on the forehead: "Silly boy, unless you kick this one out, you really don't need to have another one."

Now this one lowered his head and smiled: "This is enough."

Jason laughed too, managed to get up, and gave Bruce a hug.

"Old man, you have a granddaughter now."

"I know, she's very cute, what's her name?"

"Vera T. Barnes."

Bucky was puzzled: "Hey, isn't it Vera B. Todd Wayne?"

Jason was silent for a while, then shook his head: "No need to be named Todd, just Barnes."

Old Todd didn't leave a good impression on Jason. Jason was not responsible for passing on offspring to that scum. Damian would inherit Wayne's surname, so he would let Vera and Bucky take it.

Little Vera has excellent genes. She has shown extraordinary qualities of a super soldier's offspring since birth, such as eating four times more than babies of the same stage and having an extremely healthy body. According to tests, her strength, physical fitness and other data are four times the average data of her peers.

In summary, Damian's physical fitness as a child is similar to Vera's physical fitness now.

This is a good thing. Although the child eats a little more, no one is worried that she will get sick because she is very strong.

And after Vera showed her closeness with Axel, Orange, Titus, and Alfred (the black cat), as well as her sensitivity to other people's emotions, Jason drew a charm on the girl's head and looked at it, deciding that she should have the same magical talent as himself.

The little girl with black hair, blue eyes, delicate and cute features looked at Jason with her big eyes, laughing and babbling, and Bucky picked her up.

"Wouldn't that be great? In the future you can teach her how to ride a broom and I'll teach her how to fight."

Jason: "...Don't tell me, I can really ride a broom."

As a wizard whose magic became more and more sophisticated over time, it would not be difficult for Jason to fly the broom as long as he used special materials to create a magic broom and then used magic power.

Jason's recovery ability was a little stronger than he expected, so he successfully recovered and returned to work less than two months after giving birth.

The director was busy with work, so the child was mainly taken care of by Bucky and other people in the family, such as Mulin and Damian. They all felt that it was their responsibility to take care of Vera.

The little girl grew up to 10 months old under everyone's care.

At 4:30 in the morning, a cry was heard in the nursery, and Friday projected a colorful cartoon pattern and set Jason's alarm clock off.

Bucky opened his eyes earlier than Jason, sat up quickly and was about to get out of bed to take care of his daughter, but Jason held him down.

"Go back to sleep, baby."

Then the director staggered to make milk powder, went to the nursery to change Vera's diaper after she wet her pants, and fed her milk powder. After coaxing her to sleep, he finally had time to wash up, then changed into work clothes. During this time, he took out a pink leopard jumpsuit and placed it next to the crib.

Then Jason walked to the door holding a folder, spun the pointer on the roulette wheel, opened the door and went to the S.W.O.R.D. headquarters far away in outer space.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Vera started crying again. Bucky jumped up and rushed into Vera's room.

"Baby, let Daddy see where you feel uncomfortable."

When she saw her daddy, Vera stopped crying immediately. She looked serious and made some humming sounds, and a foul smell spread.

Jason took care of Vera personally before returning to work. At that time, he adjusted his daughter's schedule to be very regular, which made other people who helped take care of Vera feel a lot more relaxed. The little girl's excretion was also regular, and she had a bowel movement on time in the morning. Bucky skillfully held the little soft girl upright to make it easier for her to continue to push down.

After she finished, Vera screamed twice and waved her hands. Her green eyes, which were exactly the same as Bucky's, were wide open. Bucky responded gently, "Okay, okay, I got it. I'll take care of it for you."

He washed Vera's butt and changed her diaper. Bucky smiled when he saw the little leopard onesie beside the bed, and changed it for his daughter. Then he gently combed her shoulder-length black hair with a wooden comb.

Jason likes Bucky to have long hair, so Bucky's hair is always kept at shoulder length. He can tie it into a small braid, and he also looks super handsome when it is loose. Vera has never had her hair cut since she was born, and she has a lot of hair, which feels soft and smooth to the touch.

Bucky opened the door and walked into the living room holding the little girl. Alfu was sitting on the sofa reading the morning paper. When he saw the little girl, he smiled lovingly, took Vera and let her sit on his lap.

Vera greeted Alfred in baby talk, and Alfred replied in an elegant accent, "Yes, good morning, little miss."

Vera called out incoherently: "Ah-fu."

Ah Fu's eyes showed surprise: "Yes, I am Ah Fu, can the young lady speak now?"

Bucky looked at the child's great-grandfather and replied with a happy smile, "Yes, she can already call dad, Nana, Bu... and can match these names with people. Jason said that Damian also learned to speak very quickly when he was a child."

Alfu understood, and then Bucky returned to the room, fiddled with the roulette wheel, opened the door, and went to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Little girl Vera was a very well-behaved child who didn't cause anyone any worry. Even when her parents went out, she didn't make a fuss but sat obediently next to Afu. Then she crawled onto the carpet, crawling around holding a small ball. Axel followed her closely the whole time.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Bruce appeared. He made a bottle of milk powder and brought a glass of milk. He sat on the carpet with Vera and finished the meal. However, Grandpa Bruce ate one more sandwich than little girl Vera. Vera looked at him curiously while he was eating. Bruce thought about it, then tore off a small piece of bread and stuffed it into his granddaughter's mouth.

Vera's little mouth moved quickly, she swallowed it, and gave Bruce a cute smile.

Bruce coughed, "Well, your appetite is getting bigger and bigger."

After a while, because the night patrol ended late, Damian, who had gotten up late at night, went downstairs and picked up his sister and shook her.

When Vera saw her brother, she stopped drinking milk. She pushed the bottle away and crawled towards Damian, waving her hands excitedly and kicking her legs.

She called out in a baby voice: "Da——"

Damian waited for the little girl to crawl to his feet, then leaned over and picked her up, correcting her: "It's Damian, Vera T. Barnes, but considering your age, I won't bother with you about calling my name wrong."

At the end, a smile appeared on the young Batman's lips.
