[Steve notices, of course. Wonders if he should have insisted on going in, either for Bucky or with Bucky. But Bucky doesn't bring it up, so while Steve's concerned face can't really be hidden he doesn't bring it up either.]
Ran into Natasha just after you went in, actually - I think she wanted to check in and make sure I was making friends and not getting stabbed trying to stop an old lady's purse from getting stolen or something. Happens one time and you never live it down, you know? Anyway - she just left, so ... figured I might as well wait the extra minute so we could walk together. Otherwise you'd probably catch me at a crosswalk and if I told you this story then you'd probably think I was some kind of idiot that not only got lost easily but then couldn't fess up to it.
