They are sitting together on the living room couch. It was late, near midnight with the only light in the room coming from the television. Sam had a rare day off, so he wanted to watch a RomCom with Bucky. His sister says they're better when you're in a relationship; Sam just thought it would be funny to watch Bucky watch a romcom. They watched 10 things I hate about you first before moving on to The Princess Bride. It was a pretty enjoyable movie, not Sam’s favorite, that would be Playing it Cool. Bucky loved the movie however. Sam is happily surprised to find out that The Princess Bride can make Bucky smile as much as he makes him smile (which is saying something). At first Sam doesn’t understand why he likes the movie so much, but when Bucky starts gushing about it, he understands.
“It’s us!” Bucky exclaims excitedly. He’s moved from his former position, curled up beside Sam, to sit and face him. The lack of warmth stings but Bucky’s excited smile makes up for it. 
Sam smiles a soft love-filled smile, “What’s us?”
“Dread Pirate Roberts and Buttercup. I’m him and you’re Buttercup!”
Sam arched an eyebrow. “Woah woah woah, I don’t think so sweetie.”
Bucky rolls his eyes and lightly shoves Sam’s shoulder. “I think so, and I’m never wrong.” 
“Yesterday you tried to catch a crab with your bare hands.”
“It worked!” 
“eeehhh You got hurt ” To prove his point Sam kisses over the scar marks on Bucky’s right hand left from the angry, angry crabs.
“Worth it,” Bucky whispers.
Sam rolls his eyes “Whatever you say dear.” 
“Anyways, we were in the middle of an argument.”
“No we weren’t”
“Yes we were, Princess buttercup.”
“Nope Bucky,”
This called for drastic measures in Bucky’s honest opinion. Quickly he straddles Sam’s waist and starts tickling his sides “say it.” he mock-growls.
Sam laughs out loud, struggling under Bucky's grip. It makes Bucky laugh out loud so he continues his ruthless assault.
“saaaay it.”
“Never!” Sam gets out in between giggles.
“Always valiant huh? Say I am the dread pirate roberts and you’re princess buttercup,” Sam shakes his head which unfortunately only spurs bucky on.
“Come on sammy, you know I’m right.” Bucky accompanies that statement with light kisses to Sam's cheeks. Sam used this moment to his advantage. He puts his hands on Bucky's waist and switches their positions. Bucky looks up at him with wide eyes. Sam’s hand rests on Bucky’s biceps as he catches his breath.
“If anything, you’re Westly, and I'm just buttercup.”
“no, no just, your royalty to me darling.” Bucky flashes him a cheeky grin as Sam blushes. Even if they happen with more frequency, Bucky's compliments never fail to make the blood rush to Sam's cheeks.
They have a staring contest that Bucky ends up winning. He cackles and raises his eyebrow expectantly. “Fine,” Sam grumbles, “I'm princess buttercup and you’re Wesley, my hero.” Bucky cradles Sam’s head happily. He carefully places a kiss on the top of his head.
“I’m glad we agree,” Bucky says, “Can we watch the movie again?”
“No.”
Bucky pouts, but Sam’s not losing this fight. “It’s late. Come on Baby, Let’s go to bed.” Sam gets up off of Bucky and holds out his hand. Bucky takes it and they head off to bed. Best date-night ever.
