Steve sighed inwardly as Bucky seemingly put on the cold unfeeling Winter Soldier front like protective armour (maybe it WAS something like that to Bucky but he wished Bucky didn't feel it was necessary to put up that front any time they were in public) and stalked out of the quinjet. Or tried to stalk. He could see that if he'd been gone for another day, Bucky would probably have collapsed from exhaustion whether he liked it or not. He was still tired but at least he'd been able to sleep a bit in the two and half hours on the flight back while Bucky flew the quinjet.
They were greeted politely by JARVIS, who informed them that food will be delivered in twenty minutes and that Steve's usual suite was ready for them. "So do you, Bucky. We should get clean first though." Because if Bucky has been letting things like food and sleep slide, cleanliness probably was not even anywhere close on the list of things Bucky did while he had been gone. The elevator was already open and waiting for them and took them directly to Steve's floor.
"C'mon. We can share the shower. It's big enough." This was the one thing he liked about Stark Tower, the shower and the accompanying bath (or Jacuzzi really) in the suite was big enough to fit four of him and the hot water was near-endless.
