[ Sam hesitates when he feels Bucky slip back, when he gets the bleed over from the rush of pain. He stops moving, one arm wrapped tight around Bucky's waist, and he opens their connection wider to beckon Bucky back in.
They could push through it, probably, withstand the pain for long enough to get somewhere they're not likely to be interrupted or kicked out of. But it's not worth it to Sam. Bucky's been through more than enough pain in his life, and if there's something Sam can do to stop it, he'll do it every time. ]
