Chapter 7

Pairings: Bucky Barnes x Reader

Summary: Becoming friends

Warnings: Insecure reader, swearing

AN: I've been having issues with Tumblr not uploading my stuff. Sorry it's so late!

Make it better. Make it right.

That became your mantra. It settled into your soul as you sat next to Bucky in his hospital room. It rang through your mind as you helped Bruce in any way you could. And it pounded in your ears when you heard that Bucky was awake.

You were never able to get out a proper apology. In fact, you were barely able to face him. But on the third day after he woke up and had moved into the room across the hall from yours, you had an idea.

Cap had mentioned, while you were training together on the mats to relieve some stress, that James Buchanan Barnes used to bring lilies to every girl that he had taken out for a romantic night in the 40’s.That day, you bought a vase and filled in with orange and white lilies. You thought it might be a cute role reversal, but mostly you hoped it would get your point across.

As you arrange the flowers in front of his room, you hear those uneven footsteps approach you.

Busted.

“What are you doing?” The supersoldier’s voice was gruff, but it was always gruff. You try not to cringe with the anxiety that he might hate you, and you turn around with a sunny smile o your face.

“Oh, hi! I was just leaving these here for you. A, uhm, get-well-soon gesture. But since you’re here,” you extend the vase in your hands, enthusiastically thrusting the flowers in front of him. “I can just give them to you!” There’s a big, cheesy smile on your face that you’re hoping doesn’t look like a grimace.

To your surprise, he looks more cheerful than he had been during all your previous encounters. He is still a bit of a thundercloud, but a degree or so more relaxed.

He looks at you curiously, the corner of his mouth twitching a fraction of an inch upward. Your face relaxes into a shy smile, and he takes the vase. You’re very careful to avoid touching him.

“Lilies?” A hint of amusement threads through his voice.

“Yes! I mean, yeah,” you look at your sneakers and shuffle your feet. “I mean, Cap said something about them, and I figured since you’re best friends and everything… He would.. Probably know… ” You trail off, wondering why you sound so stupid.

“I… I think I liked lilies, once,” Bucky says, voice sounding a bit distant. You peek up at him through your lashes to see his beautiful grey-blue eyes staring off into space, a small wrinkle between his dark brows, as if he was concentrating.

“Oh,” you say, hesitantly. “Well.. Do you think you still like them?” You’re voice is painfully hopeful, and you feel like an idiot.

His eyes snap to your face, as if pulled out of a dream. He looks down at the arrangement in his hands, the white and tiger lilies mixed together for a summery atmosphere.

He looks back up to you and nods. “Pretty,” he almost whispers, and you find yourself staring into those big, beautiful eyes again.

Breaking eye contact and reminding yourself you close your mouth, you clear your throat. You internally curse at yourself for gawking at him. He’s too… He’s so.. You feel stupid for thinking, even a split second, that he wasn’t talking about the flowers.

“Thank you,” he says, gently.

“You’re welcome,” you say, rocking on your heels and bringing a hand up to scratch at the back of your neck. “I’m just going to… I’m going back to my room. I’m glad you still like lilies.” And with that, you awkwardly shuffle back into the safety of your room.

*****************

Bucky started sitting next to you at meals. You both didn’t really like to wake up early, so you would usually come out of your rooms at the same time. He was usually freshly showered, and Dear God that man smelled nice. You cursed your enhanced senses for being able to pick up on the subtle smell of soap and cologne, and it most definitely wasn’t strangely cute that he bothers to put on cologne. You found yourself trying to look a little cuter each morning, though you weren’t sure all your leggings and t-shirts would do much for you.

It became comforting to have his huge, hulking presence near you. His shoulders were so broad it was almost comical to see him doing regular things, like sitting in chairs and eating off of plates with forks and spoons that looked small next to his huge frame.

Bucky never touched the knives.

Bucky also never ate meat. He liked pasta, and bread. He ate a lot of veggies, but he would use the mechanical slicer. And he loved eggs and salsa more than anything in the world, apparently.

And you were still careful to never touch him.

He did come out of his shell slowly. He spent a good deal of time being sure that each of you knew the terrible things he had done under Hydra influence. One moment he would be nearly smiling at you, his eyes crinkling at the corners in a way that definitely did not made your heart stutter, and the next his face would be flooded with shame. He would then tell you about the time he beat a man to death in front of his daughter, or the time he slowly crushed a woman’s skull in his metal hand because her husband refused to give him intel.

Those were hard to hear, but you knew what he was doing. It was partly therapeutic for him to divulge his violent history, to face the guilt and the shame he felt around all of those experiences, and it was also partly a test. It was as if he expected that he would one day tell you the right horror story, and you would run screaming from him.

One day you approached the lounge to hear Bucky saying something so quietly to Natasha that you could just barely make it out.

“Natasha. I shot you,” he says, his voice hard and brittle.

“I know, I was there,” she chuckles quietly. “Just don’t do it again or I won’t make you coffee any more. You want a bagel?”

Bucky clears his throat as if there might be something very large lodged there. “Two, please. One for–”

“You getting a bagel for me, Buck?” You ask cheerily, sliding into the room in your big socks. You give him a very soft, playful punch on his flesh shoulder, justifying the touch because his sleeve would remain a barrier between your electricity and him.

“Yes,” he says, huge smile lighting up his face as you take a seat next to him. Natasha slides the freshly toasted bagel in front of you, and you groan happily at the smell of hot bread.

You look at her, and she has a sly smile on her face. Something is different about her today… What was it?

“Nat,” you say, starting at the realization. “Did you… French braid your hair?” That was so weird. Natasha always wore ponytails. She didn’t like having her hands bend back behind her for any longer than necessary.

She smiles at you. “Actually, Barnes did it.”

You look down at your tea, trying not to let your jealousy show on your face. Natasha was beautiful, and she was smart and strong and wonderful. She was one of your best friends, of course. Why wouldn’t Bucky like her? The woman was everything.

“Want me to do you?” Bucky casts a sidelong glance at you, and your jaw drops before realizing he was talking about your hair. You deflect by looking at your tea again, trying to stop the shaking in your fingers by gripping the cup.

He can’t touch me. I can’t touch him. He's just being nice.

Why would he like you when someone like Nat is literally right there? Someone beautiful, smart, sophisticated.

Someone it would be safe to touch.

“No, you don’t have to,” you reply in a small voice.

“C'mon! I need the practice. And it’s fun!” he says, looking hopefully at you. He's so eager, so open and honest a vulnerable that your heart can't help but give a little squeeze.

“Okay,” you hear your voice reply before you can conjure up the list of reasons why you can't let him touch you. “After breakfast?”

He nods almost excitedly and turns to his bagel, smearing cream cheese on it almost merrily.

And your heart has fallen into your stomach. ________________________________________
