Friday approached quickly, and the anticipation and excitement of the game had reached further than just the football pitch. Every corner of the school was decorated and filled with cheering, almost every student had been consumed by school spirit. Your brother’s name echoed through the hallways, a testament to the weight resting on his shoulders.
Unlike the rest of the team, Steve’s ambitions extended beyond high school glory. This wasn’t just a game to him, it was the starting point for a brighter future. He had the means to defy the expectations set by the privileged upbringing you had. He knew one way or the other, he’d get into college. However, from a young age, he wanted to carve his legacy, independent from his family’s influence.
Tonight’s game wasn’t about winning or losing, it was about proving to himself that he is more than his privilege and family name. 
Outside, you navigated the bustling parking lot, the scent of freshly cut grass and the roaring cheering eloped your senses. Despite knowing that Bucky and his friends wouldn’t bother attending, their disdain was well-known for school events, you couldn’t shake the hope of catching a glimpse of his signature leather amidst the crowd.
You were about to dismiss your wishful thinking when you finally spotted it, a solitary leather jacket leaning against the chained fence toward the back of the parking lot. You bubbled with excitement, reaching the same level of hype as others around you. It was out of character for you on game nights. The urge to make your way over to him or offer a wave washed away at the realization that your parents were beside you. 
The thought of their questions, probing for answers you didn’t know yourself, brought you back down from the clouds. Which ironically, weren’t anywhere to be seen in the sky tonight. 
As you made your way toward the football field, you couldn’t help but wonder what could have awaited you beyond the watchful eyes and protective figures in your life.
~
At halftime, the scores were tied. The crowd buzzed with excitement around you, yet, you couldn’t help the feeling that this wasn’t where you were meant to be. An impulse came over you as you looked down towards the exit and then back at your friends sitting behind you. 
“I’ll be right back, cover for me, please,” you pleaded to them, not taking a moment to explain. They both nodded, already knowing what you were planning. Slipping through the crowd down to the exit, you took a deep breath before stepping out. 
And there, just as you had expected, Bucky stood at the edge of the parking lot, leaning against his motorbike, cigarette dangling between his fingers. His eye lit up when he spotted you walking toward him, a smile tugged at the corners of his lips. 
“Fancy seeing you here, Sunshine.” You couldn’t help but smile back at him, the tension of the game, and family expectations faded away in seconds. He took the helmet hanging from the handlebar and handed it to you. Accepting the helmet, you fastened it securely under your chin.
“I need to be back before the game finishes,” you reminded him urgently. With a reassuring smile, he extended a hand to help you onto the back of the bike. You settled into position, wrapping your arms around his torso and resting your protected head against his back. The engine roared to life beneath you, you felt lighter the second he took off.
~
When the engine of the bike stopped, you realized that Bucky had brought you to The Overlook. Perched on top of a rugged cliffside, it offered a view of the whole town. It was illuminated by the glow of streetlights. Moments like this made you thankful that your hometown mostly got clear nights and not too much light pollution to stop the flicker of stars. 
Standing side by side, the cool air swirled around you as you silently appreciated the view.
“Why do you call me ‘Sunshine’?” you asked breaking the silence, curiosity lacing your voice as you gazed up at Bucky, he was the only person to call you by the endearing nickname. You had been wondering since that first time, why?
A faint smile played on his lips as he considered how to answer your questions. “You remind me of that song” he explained before clearing his throat and began singing softly but slightly out of key. “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,” As the familiar lyrics filled the quiet small-town air, he pulled you closer by the waist into a slow dance that seemed to stop time and space itself. “You make me happy when skies are gray.” he continued, you melted into his embrace, swaying as the world faded behind you.
As the song came to an end, your head rested on his chest and his chin came down to rest on top of your head. You lingered in each other’s arms for a moment longer. Neither of you wanted to be the first to pull away. It was the most intimate moment of your life. It gave you a glimmer of hope. 
For a second, you lifted your head meeting his gaze. A silent question lingered in his eyes as they moved from yours to your lips and back. With a soft nod, you gave him permission to close the gap between you, close the distance, and be the closest you have ever been to anyone. 
Gently, he cupped your cheek, his fingers trailed over your skin as he leaned down and into you. Time stood still as his lips hovered over yours, you could only hear both your hearts beating. 
In a moment, his lips met yours. A symphony of emotions crashed over you. It was filled with longing and desire as if you both had waited your entire lives for this moment. His grip on your waist tightened as the hand on your cheek moved into your hair, pulling you closer to him before you both came up for air. You both gazed into the other's eyes as you caught your breath. 
“I don’t want to take you back,” he sighed.
~
You spotted your family and friends in the sea of supporters located on the bleachers as you made your way back to your seat. You waved at them as you approached. Thankfully, your dad was too invested in the game to notice your presence. Your mom, on the other hand, gave you a look you had never seen before from her. It was a mixture of confusion and understanding. 
During a crucial moment in the fourth quarter, your school was up by a single point. Everything seemed to have gone well until movement caught your eye at the edge of the field. Bucky. Oh no. 
His gaze locked onto yours, your breath hitched as you wondered why he would choose now to come inside. You blinked breaking your gaze, looking out at the field you noticed Steve’s concentration had wavered. His eyes were locked on Bucky. It was as if his presence alone had the strength to throw Steve off his game. 
You watched in dismay as the other school, dressed in black and red with an octopus school mascot, seized the opportunity that gained them ground and threatened to score. Refocusing, Steve turned his attention back to the game. It was too late, the damage had been done. They were losing time and now points. The last few minutes of the game ticked, and the tension on the field and the bleachers grew. 
With seconds on the clock, Steve led the team, desperately pushing to regain control of the game. The crowd fell quiet. “Come on, Stevie,” you whispered under your breath.
The final whistle blew, and the crowd erupted into cheers and applause. They did it, The Brooklyn Knights had done it. They won. Players rushed onto the field, cheering and celebrating with each other. You watched as Steve broke away from the celebration running the opposite way, in Bucky’s direction.
You rushed down to the edge of the field, following the direction of your brother. Your heart was pounding in your chest, and dread crept with every step you took. As you turned into the hallway they had reached, you saw Steve striding purposefully towards the waiting smirk of Bucky Barnes. 
Without a word, Steve’s fist swung up with force striking a blow to Bucky’s cheek. He stumbled back slightly but his smirk remained in place. “I warned you,” Steve spat, his voice filled with rage.
“That all you got, Rogers?” Bucky taunted your brother, tone laced with arrogance. Another blow, except this time to his stomach. 
“Stop!” your voice cutting through the tension as you thrust yourself between the two. Ignoring the way your heart was pounding, you stood staring up at your brother. “Please,” your voice was barely a whisper as you pleaded. 
“Home. Now,” All three of your heads snapped toward the voice. Your dad. He’d been close behind you after you ignored his calls previously. Behind him stood your mom, Wanda, and Peter. He marched over pushing Steve away from you and Bucky slightly. You watched in disbelief as they walked toward the parking lot. You turned to look over Bucky’s injuries, “Now!” your dad's demand echoed through the hallway. You whispered apologies to Bucky as you began to follow your family.
Your eyes locked with Wanda’s, gesturing toward Bucky, you silently asked her to ensure he was okay. Her eyes filled with empathy as she nodded, making a promise to you.
~
“He’s using you!” Steve’s voice echoed up the stairs, yelling as he followed you into your bedroom. Desperate to escape the confrontation, you tried to slam your door shut, but his hand shot out stopping it. 
“No, he isn’t.” you protested, your voice began to tremble as you fought back tears. The worst scenario playing out in your mind. The biggest question that you feared the answer to. Was Bucky using you? 
“He’s playing you, Y/N! You don’t know him like I do, you don’t know his so-called friends,” His words felt like they were cutting into you like tiny paper cuts. His voice filled with bitterness and frustration. His eyes were boring into you, he needed you to understand.
“I don’t want to hear it!” you raised your voice back at him, attempting to drown out his accusations.
He was relentless, filled with anger and sorrow as he continued to unveil the true reasons why he worried about you being around Bucky, why he didn’t trust him. “They pick a victim, like you, and they place bets on how far they can push you, how long it takes, where it happens. They lure you in and make you feel safe and special. Then, they take advantage of you,” he took a pause, catching his breath before continuing with a sigh. “And after, they just discard you like you never mattered.”
“Steven!” Your dad’s voice boomed from the doorway, Steve’s body had been shielding you away from the fury in his eyes as he listened to his son recount this sort of behavior. Particularly, in the context of his daughter’s vulnerability. “I think that’s enough.” 
The ground felt like it was crumbling around you. Any moment now it would have swallowed you whole. Was it true?

It’s the 70s. Final summer of high school. Why not spend it getting high, partying and sneaking off with your girlfriend in a town that is so disapproving of anything deviating from the norm.
“I feel that when I’m with you. It’s alright, I know it’s right”

Early Jog in the Neighborhood
Hey! This fic is for @sunsetmaidenwrites! It's a sequel to a fic I wrote a while back called "Drunken Walk Through the Cemetery" It's also for @sambuckylibrary’s SamBucky Valentine’s Bingo 2024 for the prompt on Creator Card #2 - “Walk Into the Sunset” - though, I'm kind of cheating because it's a jog into the sunrise 😂 Enjoy! 🥰

Early Jog in the Neighborhood
| Pairing: SamBucky | Rated: T | WC: 1.3K |
Summary: Bucky Barnes has been jogging with Sam Wilson ever since Sam helped him out during Halloween. He might want to tell Sam something this Valentine's Day.
Excerpt:
Bucky Barnes was never going to be a morning person. Bucky knew that the moment he started this. But Bucky wasn’t going to stop. No. He was going to wake up on this third alarm and pull on some semblance of shorts, t-shirt, socks, and shoes; possibly pull his hair into a short ponytail out of his face. He was going to make his way down the sprawling neighborhood streets where intricate, built-upon mansions peppered the landscape, working his way through Delacroix to the normal homes off the edges of salty marshes and grainy beaches; possibly buy some roses at the local grocery store and then walk up the porch to the Wilson Family home’s front door.

Another Starker High School AU because I love them and I feel like there’s not enough of them
Peter straightened out his skirt to distract himself from fisting at it.
Melanie, captain of the cheer team, was talking to his boyfriend. His boyfriend! Tony Stark, captain of the football team, and of course as always looking absolutely amazing.
Peter watched with narrowed eyes as Melanie rubbed her hand up and down Tony’s arm. Peter normally wasn’t one to get jealous at least he thought so but almost everyone else would disagree.
Steve noticed the way Peter was looking at Tony and rolled his eyes before going up to his best friend. Bucky trailing behind him wondering what on earth his boyfriend was doing.
Steve tapped Peter on the shoulder and Peter quickly turned to him.
“Hey Pete,” Steve smiled putting his arm around his best friends shoulder.
“Yeah Steve?” Peter asked and before he even got an answer he turned his eye back towards Tony and Melanie.
“Just go up and get his attention don’t just stand here and do nothing if it’s making you upset, she’ll know she’s getting to you then.”
Peter nodded and took a deep breath before putting on a fake smile and marching towards Tony and Melanie.
Bucky raised his eyebrows at Steve once he turned towards him.
Steve planted a chaste kiss to Bucky’s lips and grabbed his hand. “Let’s go?”
Steve nodded and dragged him off towards the front doors of the school.
Peter placed his hand on Tony’s shoulder and leaned his body against Tony’s arm.
Melanie shot Peter a short glare before turning back to Tony with a smile but Tony was looking at Peter and planted a small kiss to his head.
Peter shot Melanie a glare back before looking up at Tony and sending him his cutest smile paired with his puppy dog eyes.
“Tony, can we go? I’m really tired and I just wanna cuddle up and watch a movie.”
Tony’s heart melted, Peter was the most adorable person in the world, he had no idea how he managed to get him.
Before Tony could answer though Melanie interrupted.
“Tonnyyy,” she said dragging out his name and having a slight pout on her face, “we need to work on our project and I was thinking we should today? Please!”
Peter gripped Tony’s arm tighter for a split second but released the pressure after.
“Sorry Melanie,” Peters voice was dripping fake sincerity, “he has plans. With me. Maybe another time.”
Peter then turned around and dragged Tony away.
Melanie called out a flirtatious bye to Tony. If he turned back around he would’ve noticed her fluttering her eye lashes at him.
He was finally stopped at turned around when him and Peter got to under one of the stair cases. Peter was glaring at him and crossed his arms with a huff.
Tony raised one eyebrow realizing what was going on before teasingly asking, “Aww are you jealous?”
Peter smacked his arm and continued to glare, “I’m not jealous. She was just touching you and I just can’t stand her. You know that.”
Tony did know that but he continued to smirk at Peter.
“Asshole,” Peter muttered and Tony swooped his head down to plant a sweet kiss to Peters lips. Peter tucked his head into Tony’s neck and wrapped his arms around it but not before smacking his arm again.
“I know, babe, I know. I can be a real jerk sometimes.”
(Sorry if this writing isn’t the greatest and doesn’t really match the moodboard that well. I did it on my phone while really sleep deprived)

Wrong Side of The Tracks

Jock!BuckyXFem!Reader   Jock!SteveXFem!Reader(platonic) Sweet!WandaXFem!reader (besties)
Warnings: Nothing much really, just a lot of fluff, little bit of language. Protective Bucky is a warning.
A/N: Hey everyone this has been 2 months in the making and I figured what better time to finish it than for Sebastian’s 40th Birthday. This is a HIGH SCHOOL AU. Both a song and movie inspired me to write this but with a bit of a twist to the original. I also want to thank a few people who inspired me to finish this. @buckyalpine​ @altagraye​ @jtargaryen18​ @imaginedreamwrite​ @endless-summer-soldier​ @christycurlswrites​ I’m sorry if I missed anyone. I hope you enjoy and as always likes and reblogs are always appreciated.
A/N 2: Apparently tumblr deleted my story so I’m re-posting this again.  dividers by @silkholland​  Moodboard Aesthetic by me and Canva 
Living in the town you’re in had been some what of a rollercoaster. Some good and some really bad. You moved here when you were 9 years old after your parents divorced. When you first arrived you felt really out of place for the first few weeks. Then one day you asked your mom if you could hang out in front of the towns city hall where other kids in the town hung out, maybe you could find some friends. She agreed and let you walk there. When you got there, there were a few kids around your age some a bit older. After hanging around the benches for a little while a boy your age came up with a few of his other buddies and started picking on you because you were new in town and they knew which part you lived in. Not the best part of town but you could tell they were from the better side of town. After trying to get them to leave you alone to no avail, a brunette and blonde boy came up behind them.
“Hey why don’t you leave her alone Brock before I punch you in the face.” The brunette yelled at him.
“Why is she your little girlfriend Barnes?” Brock teased him.
“Come on man she just moved here, lets not let her think everyone here dislikes her.” The small blonde came to your defense this time. With a small bashful smile, you looked up at the boys defending you and felt safe with them around.
“Whatever Rodgers, she’s not even worth it anymore.” And with that the bullies left to do their own thing. When they left that’d when the two boys who defended you looked at you asked of you were ok.
“Hi there, my name is James but you can call me Bucky and this is Steve are you ok?” 
“Yeah I’m fine, thank you for doing that. I’m just trying to fit in and I think that just set me back.” Looking down at your lap fidgeting with your hands. Bucky looks at you with those big bright blue eyes and immediately you feel that warmth of being safe again.
“That didn’t set you back, your our new friend. What’s your name?”
“My name is y/n.”
From then on you Steve and Bucky where thick as thieves. In a town of less than 20,000 people everyone pretty much knew everyone. That meant that every kid in school knew you as the new kid from the other side of the tracks. You tired not to let that discourage you especially when you had Bucky and Steve at your side. Even though they both lived in the nicer part of town they never made you feel less than.
Tumblr media
Fast forward to your senior year of high school. Things were better now, you had great grades and were thinking of what colleges you wanted to go. Bucky and Steve were doing the same thing plus you 3 were going to apply to schools you all could go to together. Your little crush on Bucky never left you but you never said anything because who would date someone from the wrong side of town? So because of that you watched him date a few girls but non really stuck. Not for a lack of trying on his part but he could never get you off his mind. You were the one he wanted, always watching you while you were in classes together even came to your choir concerts front and center with roses in his lap waiting for you. You thought it was always sweet of him and Steve to come to your performances. You knew it was only because they were your best friends, not knowing the underlying reason was that Bucky liked you.                                     
It was just before Thanksgiving break, and you three were discussing the colleges you were applying to and when you and your mom would be going to Bucky’s house for Thanksgiving dinner. Ever since you were 10, Steve and Bucky’s families always invited you and your mom to Thanksgiving dinner. Sarah always made the best pies and Winnie was a master of cooking turkey.
The boys got up to grab some sodas from the vending machine, when non other than Brock came and sat next to you.
“Hey y/n, now that your watch dogs are gone I wanted to see of you wanted to go on a date?”
Well this was a major turn of events.
“Now why would I want to do that? Last thing I remember is you bullying me when I first got here.” Was this actually happening right now?
“Come on I was just a dumb kid then. I now see what a beautiful girl you’ve turn into, and want to take you out.”
You were starting to feel a but uncomfortable and confused at the same time. Just as you were about to give him another retort, Bucky and Steve had come back to the table with rage in their eyes. Since growing up Steve and Bucky became very tall and muscular guys, so they intimidated everyone. But not brock, he always seemed to have something to prove.
“Brock why don’t you leave y/n alone, she clearly is not interested.” Steve spoke up first, Bucky was just there giving Brock daggers.
“Oh great, y/n's guard dogs are here. Look I was seeing if she wanted to have a little fun this weekend.”
“Yeah well she’s clearly not into you so why don’t you go to your side of the cafeteria, and leave her alone?” Bucky had told brock with venom behind his words. This shocked you a little bit, you’ve never seen Bucky so upset. It kind of made your crush on him become deeper.
“Whatever guys, look y/n when you’re ready to come to your senses you know where to find me.” Steve had to hold Bucky back so he didn’t just sucker punch him in the face. Once brock finally left you could let out the breath you were holding from all the tension around you.
“Man I hate that guy, he just thinks everyone has to bow to him.” You were the first one to speak up, Bucky was still watching Brock leave with such intensity, the only thing you could do to calm him was to hold his face in your hands and get him to look at you.
“Bucky, hey handsome you still there? He’s gone ok, he won’t come back.” That snapped him out of his trance and he finally looked at you. You rubbed his cheeks with your thumbs trying to calm his emotions. He looked at you with such adoration you both started getting lost in each others eyes. After a few minutes of staring at each other, Steve was able to get you two to separate after he waved his hands in front of both of you.
“Hey guys snap out of it, you ok??” You both stepped back a bit, feeling the heat creep up to your ears and letting go of Bucky’s face. “Yeah I’m ok, Bucky are you better now?”
“Yeah yeah sure um, I’m just gonna head to restroom real quick. Hey punk want to come with?”
“Uh yeah sure buck.”
Once they were in the restroom, Steve turned to Bucky.
“Dude what was that?”
“Steve man there is something I need to tell you. I really like y/n, like a lot.” Steve stood there looking at Bucky like he had two heads.
“Come on man say something, I’m freaking out here.”
“How long have you liked her? I mean this is new to me, you tell me everything jerk why didn’t you say anything?”
“I don’t know I just thought they would go away but they are still there. I’ve liked her since middle school. I really want to ask her out, I want to hold her man, I want to kiss her so bad.”
“Bucky you have to tell her if your this deep about her. You can’t keep these feelings about her bottled up.” “How do I do this? I’ve never had a problem asking a girl out but this is y/n, I’m a mess when I talk to her. You know how she has always felt like she doesn’t belong here because of where she lives and I don’t want her feel like this is joke. Now with Brock trying to ask her out I don’t want to her to think she’s some charity case or something.”
“I don’t think she would ever think that. Did you see the way she was looking at you just before? I think she has the same feelings for you as well.”
Bucky had some thinking to do before he could get the guts to ask her out. While Bucky and Steve were in the restroom you sat at the table in a daze. A minute later another friend of yours cam over to talk to you. Wanda was sweet girl you met in middle school when she moved here from Europe with her twin brother Pietro.
Tumblr media
“Hey y/n what was all that about?”
“I have no clue, I’m just as shocked as you.” You say with a little sly smile. Wanda noticed this and just blurted out.
“Oh my god you like Bucky, I can see it in your eyes.”
You shh her to get her to lower her voice. “Yes I like Bucky, but you can’t say anything to anyone not even your brother. I know you have that twin telepathy thing.”
“Ok I promise I won’t tell anyone. When did you start liking him? “Since I moved here, him and Steve saved me from Brock bullying me and I looked into those damn eyes and I was hooked.” You say with the biggest smile on your face at the memory.
“Are you ever going to tell him about this? I mean you’ve like the guy for a long time.”
“Wanda I can never tell him, look at him and where he lives. I’m from the other side of the tracks and he lives on the nicer side of town in a big house with rich parents. I mean don’t get me wrong, their families have never made me feel bad about where I live but I don’t know. I just feel like I’m not good enough for him.”
Wanda looked at her with a sad smile and a hug. She knew deep down that Bucky wouldn’t want to date her. She can’t compete with the other girls in the school who come from better families. She’s never really been ashamed of where comes from but she knows being with Bucky is an unatonable dream.
As her and Wanda pulled from their hug, Bucky and Steve were walking back into the cafeteria. “Hey I’ll talk to you later ok? We can hang out and make cookies at my place.”
“I’d really like that Wanda, thank you.”
As she got up to go sit with her brother she greets the boys.
“Hey guys how’s it going?” They both tell her they are good, and she says her goodbyes. The boys sit back down on both sides of you, and they look a little better now.
“So, about Thanksgiving? Should me and my mom bring anything this year?”
Everyone laughs a bit and go back to like nothing happened. As the week goes on, Brock is still relentless in his pursuit of asking you out and you keep telling him no. Man he can be annoying. He waits for you by your car, which isn’t much but it your baby. When you see him leaning on your car you prepare yourself for another five minutes of him begging you to go out with him. What is it with him lately?
“Y/N, what do I have to do to get a date with you? Come on we would make a great couple.”
“Brock when are you going to get it through your head that I’m not interested? Right now I’m really just trying through this year and find a good college. I don’t have time for your relentless begging. Besides you’re really not my type.”
“What do you mean I’m not your type?” Oh that really got him. “I’m good looking, I’m co-captain of the football team and I’m rich.”
“No brock, your parents are rich. And I don’t care if your on the football team. I want someone who isn’t as shallow as you are.”
Ok that really pissed him off, but you were on a roll and wanted him to really get the hint to back off. “Shallow, shallow? Listen here y/n, I’m doing you a favor by asking you out.”
“A favor? Since when is acting like a douch and bullying me when I first got here a favor to me?”
He was seeing red now, and you were about to be on the receiving end of a major Brock blowout. Before things could escalate further you saw over his shoulder, Bucky booking it towards you. You didn’t give Brock any inclination that he was coming behind him. When he finally got behind Brock he tapped him in the shoulder crossing his arms showing his bulging biceps. Well hello to Bucky’s muscles. No stop that, we are trying to piss off brock. When he turned around he gave an exasperated sigh and rolled his eyes.
“What is it now Barnes?”
Bucky just stood there staring at him, like he could blow his head up with his eyes. After a few more beats, brock had had enough.
“You know what, I don’t have time to deal with this. Y/N I talk to you later.”
“Don’t count on it Brock, the answer will always be the same.” You yelled back at him, Rolling your eyes.
“We’ll see.” With a roll of your eyes, you turn your attention to Bucky. Gosh he was so gorgeous when he wanted to intimate someone. It really turned you on to the point you wanted to say screw it and just kiss those beautiful pink lips he has. “Hey I was thinking, would it be okay if we went to your house to finish up that report on WWII? My house is crazy with my mom preparing for the holiday and I think we need some peace and quiet for this.” Bucky had asked. “Sure of course we can. My mom is at work until 7pm so it will just be us.”
Tumblr media
You and Bucky got into your car. It wasn’t much but its been your dream car since you were little. A 1985 Buick grand national, Bucky and Steve helped you refurbish the engine it was your baby. On the way to your house you and Bucky sing every 80’s song that comes on the radio. That was one great thing about your friendship with Bucky, you both liked pretty much the same stuff. You get to your house and unlock the door. You and Bucky put your backpacks in your room then head to the kitchen to grab some drinks and a small snack to do your work with. Both of you sit on your bed and get to work.
Every so often you look at Bucky in your peripheral vision as he studies his book. Furrowing his brow in concentration looking so adorable. What you don’t see is he is doing the same thing when your not looking as well. He loves studying with you, especially when you guys are alone with no one to bother you. After about 2 hours of writing and bouncing ideas off each other, you both take a mental break from studying to have a snack and talk.
You both lay down side by side, eating and feeding popcorn to each other and laughing when you each miss the others mouth. Bucky turns to his side to watch you laughing. He has never seen you look so beautiful, hair out of your ponytail fanning across the bed head back in full on laughter. When you calm down you look over at him watching you. That’s when you see it, the gleam in his eyes like you’re the only person in the world. You look back him the same way and then it clicks for both of you. You’re mere inches form each other, and you both are moving towards each other like there is an invisible string pulling you. With your noses about to touch Bucky looks down at your lips then to your eyes as if\ asking permission.
He places a hand on your cheek and you lean into his touch. “Can I kiss you?” he askes. “I’ve been waiting for you to ask me that.” Then Bucky closes the gap and the kiss starts of sweet and innocent, like he might break you. Soon his hand moves to your hip and gently squeezes. You hand finds the back of his head and you start stroking his hair. He moaned into your mouth and that’s when it starts to get heated. Bucky then moves to lay above you and then slips his tongue into your mouth and your grant him entrance. Finally after your lungs start to burn needing air you both pull away, leaning on each others forehead. You're both panting looking at one another in the eye, smiling like idiots.
“How long have you wanted to do that Bucky?”
“Since middle school, but I didn’t truly come to terms with it till about a week ago. What about you?”
Giggling, you leaned up and kissed his nose. “Probably since freshman year.” Bucky leans back in a kisses you again. A few more minutes of kissing and Bucky rolls off you to have you cuddle him. You both look into each others eyes not wanting this moment to end. “Hey as soon as Thanksgiving is done can I take you out on a date?” “I would really like that Bucky, but what’s gonna happen when we get back to school? I don’t come from the same upbringing as you or Steve, what if people think I don’t belong with you and they tease me? What if the other girls who I know who have been interested in you think I’m not good enough to..” Bucky then kisses you passionately to shut you up. 
“Y/N, I don’t care what everyone will think. You are the most beautiful, smart, funny, and down to earth girl I have ever met. No one else compares to you. Who cares what others think I love you!”
You stare at Bucky wide eyed at his confession, he looks back with so much adoration and no hesitation. You bring your hand up to his face and and look deep into his eyes. “I love you too Bucky.” After a few more minutes of hugging and cuddling you both get back to finishing your history work. Around 6:30 you both head back to the kitchen and decide to make dinner for the both of you and your mom when she gets home. When your mom gets home she’s pleasantly surprised that you and Bucky made dinner for her. After some light conversation about School and your moms work, she cleans up since you made dinner on her insistence. Bucky goes to your room to pack his stuff up so you can drive him home. You grab your keys and coat and say by to your mom, Bucky runs over and gives your mom a hug goodbye. You didn’t tell your mom what had happened between you and Bucky, wanting to keep it to yourselves until you had your first date. Besides the next day was Thanksgiving and all 3 families would be together and didn’t want the whole group to know just yet.
As you drive to Bucky’s side of town it hits you again. Just how different you both are, looking at all the big houses and nicely trimmed yards. Bucky can sense your Inner turmoil. “Hey, no non of that.” “I’m sorry, I forgot how good you are at reading me.” You get to Bucky’s house and park in the driveway. The two of you sit in your car for a few minutes and just stare at each other smiling. Bucky reaches over and cradles your cheek and leans in a kisses you goodbye. Oh you could kiss him for the rest of your life. When you kiss, the world does not exist its only the two of you. You both pull away and smile.
“I better get inside before my ma wonders where I’ve been.” 
“Just tell her your bad influence bestie kept you out running a muck.” You tell him laughing. “Hey you can’t say that anymore, your my girl now.”  
“Oh I’m your girl now? We haven’t had our first official date yet.”
“Y/N, you have always been my girl” He goes in for one more last kiss and exits the car. He leaves you there in a daze, realizing you really have been his girl. He turns around to wave you bye while you back out of the driveway and he enters his house and then you drive off to your side of town.
Bucky enters his house with a shit eating grin on his face. He hears his mom and dad in the kitchen going over the final plans for Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow, so he schools his face as he gets to the kitchen. 
“Hi ma ,Hi dad.” He gives his mom a kiss on the cheek and pats his dad on the back. “You seem to be in a good mood, where have you been?” As Bucky goes to the fridge to grab a bottle of water his mom starts with the questions. “I went to Y/N house after school to finish this report we have in world history and then we made dinner for her mom and ate.” There is a mischievous grin on his moms face like she knows something, but he doesn’t read into it. “Plus I’m always in a good mood when I hang out with y/n.” He tries hiding that smile again. “Well I’m gonna head upstairs and take a shower and get ready for bed. Goodnight mom night dad.”
As he heads to his room his parents watch him suspiciously. “Honey, what’s going on in that head of yours?” George asked Winnie. “Oh nothing, I have a feeling our son will be telling us some good news soon.” George eyes his wife trying to figure out going on. He shakes his head ,he can never understand what his wife thinks and probably never will.
Tumblr media
The next morning, you wake up to your mom shaking you awake telling you she made a special breakfast. “What makes this breakfast so special mom?” As you stretch and yawn. “Well honey, you and Bucky made me dinner last night so I thought I would repay how wonderful you are for doing that for me.” Y/N sat up and hugged her mom. “It was no problem mom, you’ve done so much for me, it won’t even compare to me just making you a simple dinner.” After getting up and brushing your hair and teeth, you head to the kitchen where your mom waits with the most amazing breakfast. French toast, sausage, eggs and fake mimosas, (orange juice and sprite) A little treat that your mom started when you were younger to make you seem like you were a grown up drinking from a champagne flute. As you both pile your plates with food and grab your mimosas, you both sit down at the table and clink your glasses together and laugh at how silly you two are.
Your mom watches you eat and starts thinking that soon it will only be her in your home with you soon going off to college. So she savers this moment while she can. After breakfast you head to your room and grab your phone to see a text from Bucky. 
“Good morning beautiful, can’t wait to see you later.” You smile at his text. “Good morning yourself handsome.” You put your phone down and get ready to pick out an outfit for dinner at his parents house. You hear another ping and check your phone. “I love you.” You text back. “I love you too.” You fall to your bed laughing and smiling. You still couldn’t believe this was happening, you were Bucky’s girl.
As it gets close to leaving for the Barnes home your mom starts telling you to hurry or you’ll be late. After looking at yourself in the mirror for the fifteenth time, you finally come out and meet your mom at the front door. You both grab your coats and says she will drive to the Barnes house. Your mom notices you are extra jittery for some reason. “Honey, is everything ok? You seem nervous.” You look over to your mom and give her a small smile and tell her your good. She tried not to pry so she continued to drive. You pull up to the house and your mom sets it in park. You both head up to the door and ring the door bell. You smooth out the imaginary wrinkles on your dress while you wait. The door opens and you see Bucky in front of you and you both have matching smiles. “Hi.” He breaths out. “Hi Bucky.” 
Your mom taps you on the shoulder to bring you out of your daze and steps forward to give Bucky a hug and enters the house. You finally move your feet and he brings you in with a big hug. “I missed you.” “Bucky I just saw you last night.” While you two are still hugging at the door, Winnie and your mom are watching you. “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Winnie asks your mom. “I had an inkling but I think this has confirmed it.” They stand there smiling watching their children embrace like it’s the last time you will see each other. After finally releasing yourselves you close the door and further enter the house. You see Winnie and give her a big hug, next you see Mr Barnes and give him and equally big hug. The Barnes family see you and your mom as an extension of their own, as well as the Rogers family. Five minutes later Steve and his mom Sarah arrive with her famous pies. Mr Barnes announces that dinner will begin soon and you all start gathering in the dinning room and find your seats. 
Winnie made place cards this year and sat you between Bucky and Steve. Before you start, Sarah rogers begins the Thanksgiving prayer. Everyone holds hands around the table but only you and Bucky interlace your hands and hold tight looking at each other. Afterwards you are all asked what you’re all thankful for. What everyone didn’t know was earlier you, Steve and Bucky texted each other saying all three of you got your letters from NYU but didn’t open them. When it got to Bucky he started. 
“Well everyone we wanted to do this while we were all together but today all three of us got our letters from NYU and we wanted to open them in front of our family.” All the parents had shocked looks on their faces. Your mom already had tears in her eyes and all 3 moms were holding hands. George Barnes went a head and told Bucky for you guys to open them now. You all start to open your letters. 
Steve got in on a full ride football scholarship, Bucky got in on a baseball scholarship. That lead to you, your face was in so much shock you had to be shaken by Bucky. “Y/N what is it, is it bad news?” You look at Bucky with tears in your eyes.
“I got in.... full academic scholarship! You don’t have to worry about paying for my college mom!”
Bucky practically tackles you in your chair and without thinking kisses the life out of you. Everyone in the room is looking with wide eyes and open jaws. After a few more kisses you both pull away and finally realize its really quite and see what you both just did. You look around and see everyone’s faces. “Oh crap.” You say as Bucky released you. “You guys are probably wondering what that was about?” Bucky breaks the silence. “We are dating and in love. Even though we haven’t been on an official date yet” He tells the parents. “Finally!” all the moms and Steve say in unison. “We wanted to keep it to ourselves for a bit but I guess this is us saying it now.” You finally speak up. After the initial shock all parents get up and hug all three of you and congratulate you on getting into NYU. 
Sarah, Winnie and your mom take you aside and tell you how they knew you both had it bad for one another but waited for you two to finally see it. Steve and George talk to Bucky and tell him its about time he maned up and admitted his feeling to you.
After all the congratulations are finished dinner gets started. Everyone laughs and is just enjoying each others company. You, Bucky and Steve talk about where you will live when you get to college and that’s when Mr. Barnes speaks up. “Kids I just want to say even though you all have full rides I’m not having you guys stay in a dorm. I’ll be paying for the three of you to live in apartment near campus.” The look on your faces is could rival a cartoon. “But, no hanky panky you two.” He points to you and Bucky. You both blush and look down at your laps. Everyone laughs and the mood had finally lightened.
Soon enough dinner is finished and you are sitting in the
living room having dessert and coffee. After a while Steve, Bucky and yourself go up stairs to Bucky’s room and discuss more about NYU. Then Steve brings up the one person you don't want to think about. “So, what do you think Brock will have to say when we go back on Monday?” before you can say anything Bucky speaks up.
“I don't give a flying fuck what he has to say!” You smack him on the shoulder and tell him to watch his language. You all laugh and fall all over each other. You really don’t care what Brock has to say either but you love it when Bucky acts possessive over you. “I really can’t wait to see his face though.” You tell them. An hour later its time to say goodbye. You hug Steve and Mrs. Rogers goodbye and they leave. Then its you and your mom, you and Bucky stand outside just holding each other saying I love you and how much you will miss the other.
You finally pull away and give one more kiss for the evening. Its not long because you can tell your parents are watching. “Text me when you get home safe okay?”
“I will Bucky, besides my mom wants to go shopping tomorrow for Christmas.” “Okay, hey how about after you finish shopping we meet for lunch?” “Will this be our date?” you laugh. “That will be a pre-date. Later that day will be our first official date.” 
“Really, and where will you be taking me?” 
“That is a surprise my angel face.” He then kisses you on the nose and walks you to the car. All your mom can do is smile while she drives back home. The rest of the weekend is a blur, after your date with Bucky friday night you were practically inseparable not that you already weren’t this was different. And soon enough Monday is upon you and its back to school. You decide to pick up Bucky and Steve for school that day. As soon as you get to the school and put it in park, Bucky is running to the drivers side and opening your door and give you his hand to hold. He kisses the back of your hand and you walk into the school. As you enter Bucky puts his arm over your shoulder showing everyone you’re his girl. As you head to your first class brock is waiting for you and the look on his face is priceless.
Before you get to the door Bucky turns you to face him and gives you a short kiss on the lips and tells you he loves you against your lips and hugs you goodbye. As he passes Brock with a look of utter shock he turns to him 
“Hey Rumlow, how was your holiday break?” But he doesn’t wait for a response, and just walks to his class with a huge smile on his face. When you get to class and pass up Brock. “Brock what’s wrong? Looks like you’ve seen a ghost or something, you felling ok?” You also enter class with a smile knowing you have just brought his ego down several notches because he was unable to land a date with you. Brock finally snaps out of it and admits defeat and heads in after you.
When its lunch time it all seems like the usual lunch with one exception. You sit on Bucky’s lap the entire lunch hour and you can’t keep your hands off each other. Wanda runs up to you both and stands you up and gives you a big hug and tells you how happy she is for you. You look back at Bucky who is looking at you as well and tell her, “Happy isn’t even the word to describe how I fell at this moment.” She squeals and hops up and down and gives you one more hug before she sits across from both of you. Everyone at lunch is giving you shocked looks especially the snotty rich girls. But you pay them no mind because you have the most wonderful, caring and definitely the sexiest boyfriend anyone will ever have.
After graduation the three of you head to NYU and the apartment Mr. Barnes rented for you guys and it was the best years of your lives. Yes there were some ups and downs but what relationship doesn’t. When college graduation rolled around and you all were about to throw your caps in the air, Bucky tapped you on the shoulder. You turn around and he is down on one knee proposing with his mothers engagement ring. A simple but beautiful ring. 
“Y/N, we have known each other since we were little kids and best friends ever since. Senior year I finally pulled my head out of my ass and confessed my love for you. Almost 5 years later we are ready to take on this world and why not do it together for the rest of our lives? Will you Marry me and officially become a Barnes?” 
“YES! I will marry you!” 
Everyone is watching and Steve is even recording it on his cell phone. After kissing you breathless, he slips the ring on your finger and rush to tell your parents.
You both may have grown up on different parts of town, but that never stopped you from becoming best friends then boyfriend and girlfriend, and now future husband and wife. Never be ashamed of where you come from, even if you come from the wrong side of the tracks.

prom?
Tumblr media
bucky barnes x f!reader
bucky asks you to go to prom with him. (high school au)
he had been thinking about it all week- thinking about what, you might ask?
prom.
bucky was thinking about prom.
bucky was going to take you to prom.
but he had to ask you first.
he was going to ask you weeks ago, but a rumor went around that brooklyn high’s rich boy, anthony, had asked you. and you accepted.
when bucky finally worked up the courage to ask you about it, you quickly shut the rumor down. “yeah, tony asked me. i told him no.”
“you told him no?” bucky had replied, bewildered. tony always got his way. but it wasn’t unlike you to break the norm.
you had laughed and said, “yeah, b, i told him no.”
that conversation had happened a week ago and since then bucky had been trying to come up with the perfect way to ask you to the spring dance. you were a simple girl. if he walked up to you and asked you in front of your locker, you would probably say yes. however, buck wanted to do something special for you. tony had a couple jets fly over your house and spell out ‘prom?’ obviously, that didn’t tickle your fancy…that and the fact that tony was a raging narcissist. bucky had no power or money to plan something that extravagant. he did, however, have enough money for your favorite flowers, a sign, and a simple necklace to match your dress. hopefully, that would be enough for you.
“how is my favorite girl on this beautiful monday morning?” bucky’s voice floods your ears as you toss a couple of notebooks in your locker.
“feeling good and looking better,” you respond. when you turn around you’re met with bucky’s wide grin. he looks good. he’s wearing his usual- a black tee shirt and a pair of cuffed light wash blue jeans. his hair, recently cut, is messy atop his head and his blue eyes are filled with that mischievous, childlike glint. “how are you, b? missing your six-foot four blonde boyfriend, i see?”
he rolls his eyes, throwing his arm over your shoulders. he smells like sandalwood, leather, and citrus. you love it. “he’s in louisiana surprising his friend, sam, for his birthday. so it’s just you and i, doll.” you hum, snaking an arm around his waist, looping a finger into his belt loop. the gesture drives bucky wild, but he keeps his composure and asks, “what’re you doin’ after school?”
you let out a tiny huff as you think. “nothing that i know of, why?”
“i got somethin’ i wanna show you.”
bucky doesn’t have to look down to know that you have a skeptical look on your face. but naturally, you agree, “fine, but if this takes up more than thirty minutes of my time you’re buying me a milkshake.”
bucky scoffs, his pace coming to a slow in front of your class. “deal.” he places a quick kiss to your temple before saying, “have fun in weird people chemistry, doll. i’ll meet you in the parking lot.”
“later, buck.”
“later, y/n.”
the new york sun was surprisingly bright as you exited the expansive brooklyn high school. immediately, you put your sunglasses on and begin the walk to your designated parking spot. as you get closer, you realize that bucky is sitting on the hood of your car with flowers in one hand, a sign in the other.
bucky watches as you stop in disbelief a couple feet away as you read the sign.
Y/n, prom wouldn’t be the same without my favorite girl. Go with me?
when you gather your words, you ask, “bucky, are you messing with me?” you’ve re-read the pretty cursive (definitely not bucky’s writing) over and over to make sure your eyes aren’t failing you.
“you really think i would joke about taking you to prom?” he receives back a knowing look because he has, in fact, joked about taking you to prom. “i’m not joking with you doll.” he stands up and carefully sets down the sign and bouquet of orange and yellow marigolds. he reaches up to your face and gently removes your sunglasses and slips them on the collar of his shirt. your heart his racing. his touch much more intimate than that of best friends.
“you’ll be pleased to know that i’ve put a lot into this, alright. so first, i would nervously wait outside your house with your dad and be in total shock when i finally see you in whatever beautiful ensemble you and your ma’ have picked out. then, i would take you to get burger because italian is way too formal. after that, we’ll dance the night away and leave early to go get ice cream. and then right before i drop you off, i’d kiss you,” he says voice barely above a whisper. “and hopefully you would kiss me back. and after, we’d both be in shock because what the hell, right? but then comes relief because-“
“finally, you got the girl,” you finish.
“yeah,” he breathes out nervously, “i got the girl.” sometime during his explanation, his arms had weaved around your waist keeping you flush against him. your hands rested around his arms, fingers dancing along his triceps.
“are you gonna wait until prom to kiss me?” you ask, eyes fluttering down to bucky’s lips and back up again.
he hums. “you’ll go with me?”
“i’ll go anywhere with you, b.”
his grin is boyish, cheeks flushed. he opens his mouth to respond, but you swallow his words by placing your lips on his. the kiss is slow and soft and as intimate as it could be in the school parking lot.
“so, uh, what color are you wearing,” bucky asks after pulling away, breathless.
you let out a laugh with the shake of your head. “seriously?”
“i’m being very serious, doll.”
“i’m wearing red. i’m thinking you go ‘full bucky barnes’ in black tie getup.”
he kisses you again. quick and fleeting. “i like the way you think, doll.”

Pairing: Steve Rogers x Bucky Barnes
Word count: 3.3k
Notes: Steve has never been great at making friends. Going to a football camp to increase his chances of getting into a good college freaks him out a little - not so much because of the pressure put on him, but mostly because he feels like he’s not gonna fit in, and will have the longest summer of his life. It ends up feeling unfairly short, when he meets one Bucky Barnes, the most gorgeous guy he’s ever met.

Kissing when the sunsets
Bucky Barnes x reader
Warnings: none
high school au
They where sitting on the bleachers watching Bucky’s basketball game. She was watching Bucky when she felt her friend hit her shoulder and say “When are you gonna date him”.
“What” She said turning to look at her friend.
“You heard me” her friend said with a teasing smile
“I don’t think he likes me like that” She said softly
“I think he does but ok” Her friend replied with a smile
After his game was finished they went down by the doors to wait for him. Before he went into the locker room and ran to her and wrapped his arms around her.
“Ewww Bucky you’re all sweaty” She said laughing trying to get away from him.
Bucky was laughing and after a few seconds let go. He looked down at her and said “I’m gonna go take a shower i’ll be right back”
“Ok!” she replied smiling.
She looked at her phone and her friend sent her a video “What did you send me” She asked looking at her friend.
“Watch it” Her friend said with a smile
When she opened the video it was Bucky walking to her with the biggest smile and hugging her and it was captioned “no one looks at a “just friend” like that”
She looked back at her friend but she saved the video.
“Bucky’s driving you home right” Her friend asked
“Yeah he drove me to school this morning so he’s my ride home” She replied
“I’m gonna leave and go home” Her friend replied
“Ok!” She replied and gave her a hug and waved bye when she walked out the door.
After 20 minutes she looked up and Bucky was coming out of the locker room with his bag. He was wearing a regular black shirt and jeans and his hair was wet from taking a shower.
“Hey” he said walking up to her with a smile.
“Hi” she replied following him to the car.
When Bucky put his seat belt on he looked over at her and asked “do you want to get some food before i take you home”
“Sure” she replied with a smile
After they got food Bucky was driving somewhere and she said “Where are we going?”
“I wanna show you something” He replied back looking over at her
“Ok” She said
When Bucky parked they where at a beach and the sun was starting to set.
They sat at a bench in the sand to eat
After she finished eating she got up from the table and took off her shoes and ran to the water.
“What are you doing” Bucky yelled since she was far away
“Playing it the water” She replied with a smile “Why don’t you come in too” She added holding out her hand.
“Give me a second” He replied. He took off his shoes and ran to grab her hand and they stood so the water wouldn’t get on their jeans
“Look how pretty the sky is” She said looking at the sun setting.
“Yeah” Bucky replied breathlessly looking at her instead of the sun
She turned around to look at Bucky and when she did he put his arms around her waist.
“Can i kiss you?” He asked softly
She nodded and then Bucky leaned down and kissed her. She wrapped her arms around his neck. After a few seconds Bucky pulled away and rested his forehead on hers.
“I’ve been waiting for you to do that” She said teasing him.
He laughed and said “You could have done it to you know”
She smiled and him and hugged him.
“You ready to go home?” he asked pushing her hair behind her ear.
“Yeah” she replied with a smile
When Bucky drove her home before she got out of the car she leaned over and kissed him and then waved bye to him.
Before she went to sleep she got a text from him that said “Can i take you out on a date Saturday”
She replied with “yes!!”

As the night began to grow colder, Bucky checked the time. He sighed as he realized he should probably be getting you back home. Standing up, you thanked Bucky for giving you his hand for support. Bucky bent down to pick up his jacket from the grass, instantly putting it around your shoulders. Slipping your arms into it, you smiled gratefully at him. 
The ride back to your house was calm, you felt lighter now. The engine hum was a comfortable sound, you grew tired as the cool air wrapped around the two of you, and the bike vibrations rocked you. Your mind finally felt at peace. 
When you reached your house, Bucky cut the engine at the usual corner. He recognized the fatigue taking over your body. “Are you going to be okay to climb?” You nodded, a smile tugged at your lips at his concern.
Before you could make a move towards the tree that was used to climb up, Bucky reached out a hand to help you. You whispered a small thank you to him as you began to climb. Slowly, you both made your way up, Bucky right behind you every step of the way.
~
Your room was covered in darkness, the only light coming from the moonlight. You retreated under the covers, not even bothering to get ready for bed. Snuggling into your pillow, you already began to drift into sleep. Bucky’s jacket was still wrapped around your body. Bucky stayed stood by the window, watching as you found comfort. A content smile on his face, you were okay and you were safe. That’s all he needed to know. 
“I don’t leave,” you barely whispered to him as you sensed him preparing to leave. “Stay with me.” 
His movements froze, hands gripped to the edges of the window frame. He turned back to you and made his way to the side of your bed. Kneeling to your level, his fingers brushed through your hair.
“I know you’re sleepy, Sunshine,” he whispered back to you, his voice was low and soothing. “I’d love nothing more than to stay, but it’s risky.” 
Disappointment took over your face, eyebrows knitted together and your lip trembled slightly. “Please,” you pleaded, a desperate whisper as your eyes opened to look at him. 
His gaze softened, his heart aching at the sight of you at your most vulnerable. He knew the risk of staying, knowing that the more time you spent together the more risk of anyone finding out would be. Yet, as he looked into your eyes, he found himself unable to resist.
He nodded, crumbling to your wishes. He rose to his feet, taking his shoes off and closing the window. Gently, he closed the distance between you two, “Okay Sunshine,” he whispered as he lay on top of the bed covers.”I’ll stay.”
Sighing in relief, you gazed at him while bringing your hand out to intertwine your fingers with his. Bucky made himself comfortable beside you, bringing his arm around to pull you closer. 
You nestle your head into his chest, and the beat of his heart becomes the soundscape you didn’t know you needed, gently guiding you to sleep. Before long, Bucky’s eyelids grew heavy and he joined you to sleep.

Bucky and Peter who dated for four years. But Bucky was graduating and going into the army. Peter still had two more years left of high school and wanted to go to college. So they made the decision to break up. For the two year they kept in contact, letters, phone calls, random trips home but slowly even those finally stopped.
Que 10years later, Bucky married to Steve and brings him to his hometown for his highschool reunion. And when someone brings up Peter, he asks about him since they haven't been in contact for atleast 8years.
Peter went off to college, but came home to take care of an ill Aunt May( who has since passed), teaching at the local college, owns and works the only computer/tech repair shop in town. Had gotten engaged but engagement were broken. Surprisingly the rumor around town was that he was engaged to THE Tony Stark, but no one can confirm, but they know that he has visited in town several times and his fancy car is always parked at the Parkers house.
Steve is curious about Peter, Bucky talked so fondly of him but he doesn't even know what he looks like. And Bucky feels guilty, he knows he shouldn't but he feels bad for how things turned out for Peter. And late at night while laying in the guest room at his parents house, he rolls over to Steve to ask him if he minds if they drop by the Parkers the next day. Of course Steve would say yes.
Peter was not expecting them. Especially them showing up in his yard holding hands. Cause after Bucky lost his arm, he never heard from him and never knew what became of him. He's happy for him even if it breaks his heart.
