Pairing: Bucky Barnes x fem!Reader
Summary: Bucky overhears his girlfriend calling him clingy
Word count: 1243
Warnings: sad Bucky and swearing
A/N: whilst editing this I realised that Alpines a girl but just for the sake of this story we’re going to pretend she’s a boy🙃
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Bucky had a massive smile planted on his face as he left the bedroom he shares with his girlfriend and cat; he was so proud of himself for finally mastering online shopping - he just ordered a huge cat tree for Alpine. To others it wouldn’t have been important but for him it was an accomplishment he was excited to share with his girl.
With a little bounce in his step, he was about to turn the corner to where the common room was when he comes to a stop.
“-I’m telling you Nat it’s annoying” he smiles at the voice that has soothed him to sleep more times than one “he’s so clingy, always wanting to lay on me, always following me around, trying to kiss me whilst I’m eating! It’s like he always needs to be touching me at every given moment, God he’s so needy” his heart breaks not only at the words but at how frustrated she sounds. He really didn’t mean to be clingy and needy, there was no doubt in his or anyone’s minds that he was in love with her, everyone always mocked about how he was her shadow, but he didn’t care. Being her shadow was his way of showing her that he loves her and that he was always going to be there, that no one was ever going to hurt her. 
Not having the heart to hear the rest he turns around and walk back to their shared room, determination running through his veins he was going to change. He didn’t want to lose her. The last thing he hears is Natasha laughing.
“Y/N he’s a cat! He loves you” Natasha chuckles.
“Yeah but still… it’s annoying. Because the worst part is that he only does it when Bucky isn’t there” Nat tries really hard not to laugh at the pout on the other woman’s face. It doesn’t take long for both burst out laughing.
~~~
Throughout the week Y/n notices something wrong with Bucky, it wasn’t normal for him to be out of bed before her - not anymore at least - he didn’t want to cuddle up with her anymore, the kisses were quick. It was hurting her; she was missing him even though he was close by. It wasn’t just her that noticed Bucky’s strange behaviour.
“What’s going on with you and Mr grumpy pants?” Sam asks as he hands her a fresh cup of tea.
“I don’t know Sammy, he’s been distant this past week and I don’t know what I’ve done”
“Have you guys argued?”
“No” taking careful sips of the hot beverage “the last time we argued was when I took that bullet for him and that was like what three months ago? We only argued for about an hour before we made up.”
“Wait… seriously that was the last time you argued?”
“Yep, we don’t argue about anything. Yes, we have disagreements about everything and anything, but it never leads to us fighting. But we also come to a mutual agreement on whatever we’re disagreeing with.”
“Okay okay” he puts on his concentration face on as she always puts it “have you took any bullets for him recently?” chuckling when he receives a deadpan look.
“No Sam I haven’t taken any bullets for him recently” rolling her eyes as she sets the now empty cup down “I honestly don’t know what I’ve done, I miss him.”
Standing up and placing a kiss to her temple “Go and talk to him, it’s breaking my heart seeing you both sad and mopey.”
“I will, thanks Falc”
Instead of going to find Bucky she grabbed her coat and bag and headed down to the garage, once she was inside her car she drove to the store.
The bed was covered in all different kind of snacks and drinks, her plan was to sit him down and talk then they’ll spend the rest of the night in bed watching movies and filling their faces. Making her way out of the room she went to track down her boyfriend - finding him in the gym.
“Hi bubba, can you finish up here and come with me” instantly not liking how her voice sounds.
“Um okay just give me a minute.”
“Of course.”
“Im done, where we going.?” Bucky’s right hand twitches to reach out to hold hers but all he does is shoves it in his pocket.
“Back to our room. We need to talk Buck”
He was prepared to drop to his knees and beg for her not to break up with him, promises on the tip of his tongue that he’d change and be better. Before he could utter a word, they had arrived at their room. The door was closed softly behind them whilst his head was bowed downwards finding his shoes more interesting. 
“Buck I don’t know what I’ve done wrong but I’m sorry I don-“
“I heard you”
“What?”
“I heard you talking to Nat about me being clingy and needy and annoying and I’m trying baby really I am. I gave you space, Im keeping distant because I love you and I don’t want you to break up with me an-“ 
“Bucky breath! Here sit down, focus on your breathing bubba” Moving him to sit on the sofa that was in their room, she knelt down in front of him going through his breathing exercises.
It took nearly 10 minutes for him to get his breathing under control, leaving him feeling more ashamed as always after he had a panic attack “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry” he manages to rasp out.
“I’ll tell you what I always tell you when you have panic attacks - don’t apologise. It’s okay bubba I promise, I’ve got you” taking his hands into hers so rubs her thumbs over his flesh and metal knuckles “I wasn’t talking about you that day Buck, I was talking about Alpine. He followed me and Nat into the common room and Nat made a comment, I was talking about how he only wants me when you’re not around. Oh bubba you actually thought I was talking about you?” Taking one of her hands from his she wipes the stray tear that rolls down his cheek as he nods “Bucky I love it when you’re all over me, I love knowing that I’m never alone because your always there. I have never once thought you was clingy not once! I love you Buck and I love the attention you give me and affection you show me. Please bubba understand that”
“I love you too” bringing up her hand in his metal one “I’m sorry for overreacting baby I should of spoken to you”
“Give me a kiss and all is forgiven” she grins cheekily.
He pulls her on to his lap and kisses her, both sighs contentedly as they share their first kiss in a week little pants of air leaves their lips once they detach from one another.
“I brought snacks and drinks so how about me and you get into bed watch movies, eat, cuddle and maybe some other activities?” She says with a suggestive tone with one eyebrow raised.
Bucky chuckles when a squeal interrupts him standing up.
The third film has finished, not like they were watching - to busy doing other activities - they lay tangled with one another. 
“I brought Alpine a new cat tree off the Amazon.”

Beds
Bucky Barnes x Reader
Tumblr media
Summary: While sharing a hotel room with Reader, Bucky has a nightmare.
A/N: Surprise. Bet y’all didn’t expect a fic from me. How longs it been? Too long. Anyways, I’m rewriting one of my old fics, or more so taking the same concept but doing it more in character. Also I think this is the first time I’ve written something where we don’t see Bucky’s pov, so I think that’s kinda fun. Btw I’m rusty so don’t judge me if it shows. Also I think this is gender neutral but I’m not sure?
Warnings: language, sexual references, nightmares, ptsd, panic attack (not too intense), allusions to some hydra stuff but nothing graphic, hurt/comfort, frenemies to lovers, Bucky is moody, the one bed trope™️, no use of “y/n”, kinda sappy
—————————
A loud sigh came from the left of you just before the elevator dinged and the metal doors creaked open. You ignored him, you chose not to engage in his passive aggressiveness. You weren’t going to accept the invitation of a petty rant hiding behind that sigh.
You walked down the hallway with Bucky stalking behind you, like an angry pitbull trailing after its owner.
“I don’t even know why we got a fucking hotel in the first place.” Bucky grumbled, and you could practically feel the weight of his eye roll, even though you couldn't see it.
“Here we go.” You muttered under your breath. “What did you want? A safe house? It’s not like we’re on some high stakes, undercover op. Anything more than a hotel would be excessive.”
“Anything more woulda had better sleeping options.” He whined. “Coulda at least got us separate rooms.”
“My god, give it a rest Bucky, you’ve been complaining all day about this.” You we’re exasperated, it was about the third time you’d heard him gripe that day.
“Well, I’m not a fan. Us sharing is the stupidest fucking idea Sam’s ever had.”
“Bitching about it isn’t gonna change anything. And, it’s not like we have to sleep together or anything, I’ll be in a whole different bed.” You said, unlocking the room door. You had been looking forward to chilling out and resting, but as soon as you entered the room, you realized that your night would be anything but restful.
“Fuck.” You laughed, humorlessly, knowing you were about to hear an endless rant. “I take that back, there isn’t different beds.”
Surprisingly that rant didn’t come. Bucky weirdly seemed calmer than he had before and merely shrugged. “‘S fine. I’ll take the floor.”
“Well, one of us can try the couch?”
“That thing could fit a toddler at best.” He gestured towards the small leather love seat as if it was the most ridiculous suggestion he had ever heard, and in all honesty, he had a point.
You pinched the skin between your eyebrows. “Sam said he booked a two person room.”
He shrugged again and then blankly said. “This is why he shoulda booked separate rooms.”
“My god Bucky, I’m not that bad of a roommate. I don’t snore, I don’t sleep walk, and it’s not like I’m gonna kill you in your sleep. It’s one fucking night. Just-“ You took a deep breath and tried to mellow out. “You can have the bed.”
“No, you can have it.”
“You’re obviously more tore up about this than me, so it’s yours. I’ll sleep on the floor.”
“No.” He refused, his eyes held an odd stubbornness. “I’ll sleep on the floor.”
“I literally don’t care, I’ve done it a million times. Plus, your grumpy ass probably needs some good sleep.” You half teased, trying to do the nice thing. You unzipped your bag and pulled your belongings out. “I’m gonna go change clothes.”
When you came back from the bathroom, Bucky was already in his boxers and a T-shirt, positioning a pillow and blanket on the floor.
“I told you the bed was yours.”
“Okay, and?”
“Why are you getting down there?“
“Why the fuck are you arguing?”
“Because you’re all pissy about this whole situation, so I’m trying to make your life easier and give you the bed.” You didn’t understand his defiance and odd aversion to the thing he’d been complaining about restlessly: the better sleeping option.
“I don’t want the goddamn bed, just shut the fuck up about it!” Bucky snapped. His outburst caught you off guard, he acted as if you had been purposefully pushing his buttons.
“Damn, fine.” You held your hands up in defeat, almost offended at the way he lashed out. “I get you’re trying to be all gentlemen-like but ya know, the aggressiveness defeats the purpose.”
“It’s not about being a gentlemen. Don’t get it twisted, I’m not being nice, I-“ He grunted. “Never mind I don’t owe you a fuckin’ explanation. Just get in bed.”
“I will, thank you, cause I’m tired. Especially tired of whatever the fuck is up your ass and has you so bitchy.”
You said it with full sincerity, of course you were used to bickering with Bucky but it always was in a playful manner, even when annoyed with each other, it was always friendly fire. There had been no sign of that all afternoon, Bucky was purely hostile and treating you like his greatest burden.
“You running your damn mouth and arguing isn’t helping anything.” He spat as he turned off the lights.
“Wow, sorry. Didn’t know offering you the bed was so fucking rude and offensive.”
“Shut the fuck up.” He groaned.
You muttered “fucking dick” under your breath.
“I heard that.”
As you settled into the bed, you couldn't help but roll your eyes in frustration. You found yourself pondering what you could have possibly done to provoke such a strong reaction from him. You couldn't shake the feeling that it wasn't entirely about you. Maybe something else was going on and you were standing in as Bucky’s punching bag, just being the unfortunate catheter for his anger.
It didn’t matter. You had to force all the worry and aggravation out of your head because his attitude wasn’t worth losing sleep over. The last thing you need was to be exhausted on a mission.
—————————
You were jolted awake by a sudden, loud gasp, followed by a soft groan emanating from his direction. Rubbing your eyes, you opened them to find him sitting upright, his knees drawn close to his chest. He looked so small, a stark contrast to the huge stature and borderline intimidating presence you’d become so familiar with. His breathing was audible despite the distance between you, it was quick and shallow.
“Buck?” You concernedly called out to him but he didn’t answer. You then got out of bed, and flicked on the nightstand lamp.
“Bucky?” You tried again when you were closer.
Out of all the time you’d known Bucky, this was the first you’d seen him vulnerable. He was trembling harshly, hyperventilating too. He seemed equally dazed and terrified, but also distant as if he were lost in his head. You always thought Bucky had rather sad eyes but right now, the way they were widened with fear and slightly watering, took it to a whole new level.
You knew what was happening and seeing it felt like a stab to the heart. You slowly sat down in front of him, keeping space between you as to not worsen his panic.
“Buck, it’s okay.” You cooed. “Can you hear me right now?”
His gaze shifted to you, finally making eye contact, which gave you an answer.
“Okay, can you try to breathe with me? Deep breath…in 1…2…3” You exaggeratedly took large, slow inhale to lead him. “Out 1…2…3…”
You repeated the example, guiding until he finally started to follow along with you. “Good, you’re doing good. Do you know where you are?”
“….hotel. We’re on a mission?”
“Good, that’s right, good. It’s okay. You’re safe.” With a gentle and caring tone, you spoke to him, hoping to bring a sense of peace to the turmoil that was raging within him. Your heart felt heavy as you seen the pain that was laced within him, and you wished so badly that you could erase it all. You’d been scared you weren’t doing the right things, but his increasing improvement made you more confident.
“Can I touch you?”
He nodded.
You supportively placed your hand on top of his, stroking your thumb over his skin in a soothing manner. He initially flinched but didn’t pull away. “Starting to calm down now?”
“Yeah.” He released a long heavy breath and wiped the wetness off his eyelids with his free hand.
You sat silently with him, providing that tender, tactile support as he as he worked to regain his composure and steady his breathing. As he gradually calmed down, you noticed the shame creeping over him, causing his cheeks to flush red and his gaze to avert from yours.
“I didn’t want you to see this shit.” He finally said after minutes of silence.
“It’s fine-“
“Fuckin embarrassing is what it is.”
“No, stuff happens. I’m not gonna judge, ya know? I understand. I know what having panic attacks is like.” You revealed in attempt to make him feel more seen.
He slightly shook his head, at himself instead of towards to you, but he stayed silent.
“You okay?”
“Yeah.” He paused for a moment, he licked his lips and hung his head even lower. “‘M used to it. Get ‘em bout every night.”
“The panic attacks?”
“Nightmares. Those sometimes comes after though.”
“Oh.” You whispered, feeling like something in you had just shattered. “About hydra?”
“Yeah.”
“You wanna talk about it?” You offered carefully.
“Nothing you should hear. My head’s a fucked up place.” He laughed humorlessly.
“Try me.”
He hesitated for a moment, you assumed he was debating on wether or not he should trust you with such a heavy part of himself. “Basically all memories. Not so much dreams, more so just stuff that’s already happened. Flashbacks I guess.”
As his mouth parted to speak, only to close again, you knew that he wasn’t finished so you waited patiently, allowing him the time he needed to gather his thoughts.
“Most of the time it’s…you know…what I’ve done. People I’ve killed. It’s….of course it’s horrible. Pretty gruesome but uh….I’ve gotten better at dealing with those, it’s still….I just get em so much that I can calm down faster now. But sometimes…it’s the shit Hydra did to me and it’s just….I’d get punished a lot. Some kinda torture or beatings, I’ll spare you the details.”
You continued to stroke his hand and stayed silent, not wanting to push him.
“But uh…they had this chair. Um, I’d get strapped down and they’d electrocute me. That’s how they’d…ya know. And I’d always end up there for a wipe after I fucked up. Or even if I didn’t. I don’t what’s worse honestly…the sick twisted shit they’d come up with or the wipe but…but reliving all that….”
“That’s fucking terrifying.”
“Yeah. Yeah, terrifying is an understatement. Sometimes…it’s hard to feel safe after that.”
His breathing started to pick up again. The cracks in his voice made it clear he was starting to get overwhelmed.
You then firmly grasped his hand, giving it a supportive squeeze. “It’s okay, you don’t have to keep going if you don’t want to.”
“I don’t like to think about all that. I try to never actually. It’s like…obviously it’s…I can’t describe how fucking awful. But at the same time, if I do think about it, it’s like I’m ignoring all the evil shit I’ve done. And that’s not fair to everyone I’ve wronged. So then….if I never think about or deal with the torture….when I have to relive it in these goddamn nightmares…it just fucks me up worse. And my fucking luck is one of the few times it happens is when I’m sharing a room with someone.”
Your heart sank to the floor, your own eyes were watering at this point from getting just this small glimpse of his pain. “I’m so sorry, Buck. Hell, I don’t even know what to say right now. I wish I could do more to help.”
“You’re doing enough.“
“You didn’t deserve it, ya know? I don’t know everything that went on but you never deserved to suffer like that.”
“Half-debatable. At certain point it had to become karma for the suffering I was causing myself.” He shrugged solemnly.
“That’s not true. You had no control.”
He sighed exasperatedly, filled with a sad frustration directed at himself. He put his face in his palm. “We’ve had that conversation. You already know I don’t see it that way.”
“Yeah but I hope one day you will. And I’ll die before I stop trying to get it through your head that you’re innocent. You know you’re strong, right? So damn strong to be holding it together right now. After going through all that pain and to still be here and be a good man? To come as far as you have. I’ve never met anyone as strong as you.”
“We can agree to disagree but I appreciate it….and thanks sitting with me and calming me down and all that.”
“Of course.”
“I’m sorry about earlier. This is why…I didn’t wanna share. And this is….one…of the reasons I don’t like sleeping in a bed. Makes the nightmares worse sometimes. That’s not your fault though, so I shouldn’t’ve…I just didn’t want you to know.”
“It’s alright. I get it now.”
“I shouldn’t’ve took it out on you. I really am sorry.”
“Buck, I get why you were upset. Well kinda, I honestly can’t imagine even a fraction of what you go through.”
“Goin a little far with the pity.” He grew a tiny smirk.
“Compassion.” You corrected. “And I can’t help it, I mean…not to get all sappy, but I care about you. A lot.”
His smirk morphed into a smile and you mirrored it. You wrapped your arm around him and laid your head on his shoulder, Bucky then slowly encircled you with his own arms. You knew the hug was Bucky's way of wordlessly affirming that he cared about you too.
“Didn’t know Mr. Grumpy was capable of hugging.”
“Consider it a one time gift.”
You chuckled in response but then an idea entered your mind.
“You think it’d help if I slept with you?” You asked softly.
He gave you a cheeky grin. “Could at least take me out to dinner first.”
“You know what I meant.”
He sighed. “Not to be an ass but I literally just told you I don’t like beds?”
“No dumb ass, I mean down here.”
He tilted his head and gave a tight lipped frown. “You don’t gotta do that.”
“No. But if it’d help you feel more comfortable, then I want to.”
He didn’t answer at first but because his face had always been an open book, revealing every emotion with striking transparency, he wore an expression that was etched with heartbreaking gratitude.
“Yeah…we can try that.” He whispered, as if he was in shock.
With gentle movements, you plucked the blanket and pillow from the bed and nestled yourself beside him. As you lay towards him, your faces drew closer, until they were mere inches apart. You could feel his warm breath caressing your skin. In that moment, time seemed to stand still as you both gazed into each other's eyes, it was almost hypnotic. There was no awkwardness when it should have been expected, instead, a comforting feeling washed over you. You were consumed by excitement, tinged with a soothing calmness. Sure, it was paradoxical, but it was consuming and left you lost in the moment.
“Um…” Bucky started hesitantly but then cut himself off, he bit his bottom lip nervously.
Before you had a chance to even consider the words, they spilled from your lips. You were surprised with your own spontaneity, but the question had already slipped. “You wanna cuddle?”
It was as if you read his mind, you could practically see all the anxiety melt off Bucky before he pulled you into his chest. “This okay?” He asked.
“Mhm.” You replied, allowing yourself to sink into the comforting warmth of his body, all while listening to the soft thumps of his heart beating. It was a new intimacy that strangely felt familiar and natural, like everything had suddenly fallen into place.
You heard him yawn and you hummed fondly at how cute it was. “Goodnight, Buck.”
Tenderly, he leaned in and softly placed his lips upon your forehead, holding them there for a fleeting moment before settling his chin atop your head.
—————————
Bucky straddled your lap, his hand cupping your face as he devoured you in a passionate kiss that unraveled you with each flick of his tongue. His other hand roamed to less innocent regions of your body, exploring them with a touch that was both bold and tender.
He repositioned and pressed you down onto the couch, towering over you as his tongue continued to dance in your mouth. You were both breathless, and desiring more. He proceeded to plant kisses on your jawline before moving down to nibble on your neck.
He suddenly stopped, muttering against your skin. “You wanna move to your room? Have a little more space for this?”
“You know what’s funny?”
“Hm?”
“How before we got together, you hated beds, but now you want in my sheets every damn second.” You teased.
“Well…feels a lot more pleasant now.”
“Weird way to say ‘I’m always horny’.”
“I’m making up for 80 some years. And like you aren’t, you’re worse than me half the time.”
“Definitely worked up now, so get me to the bed and we’ll go as many rounds as you want, pervert.”
“Fuck you.” He laughed.
“I’m waiting for it.”

Couldn’t help but stare at her photograph
Summary: James let his faults and insecurities take over his life. Saying things he doesn’t mean because he doesn’t deserve them. This costed him the love of his life and his children.
Warnings: like none really? Crying, angst, kissing, Bucky and reader have children, No happy ending!!!
🎞️
For a while I sat there staring at her photograph, For a while I cried and tried not to make a scene.
James watched the old tape of their wedding. The way she looked ingrained into his mind evermore. How he sore to any and everything that he would spend the rest of his life loving her. That’s the only promise he kept out of all of them.
There in the small coffee shop he watched crying as his y/n and their children sit at a table smiling and talking. He tried not to make a scene.
There was a time when we were young I used to make her laugh. But life is long, my love has gone away from me, gone away from me, gone away from me
“Ew James stop! No..no don’t you dare put that on meeee!” James chased her around the island in their home with raw cookie dough, trying to smear it on her. He was shirtless just in some sweatpants, she was in his shirt.
“Come on baby come give me a kiss” he said playfully.
“If I walk over there and give you a kiss promise you won’t get that on me?” She asked hesitantly
“Yes, yes I promise!” He laughed. She slowly made her way to him like a bunny trying to approach a wolf. He had his arms out waiting for her smiling like a fool. Drunk on love. Once she was in his arms, he held her tight and kissed her. It was warm and comfortable. No lust just pure admiration and love.
Once they broke out of the kiss he rubbed the spatula on her nose.
He broke the promise
“James!” They laughed together
 life is long, my love has gone away from me gone away from me, gone away from me. Life is long, my love has gone away from me.
“Why!? James have I done something wrong? Just let me in” she begged
“I can’t do this anymore, the routine and boring life. I have a second chance to live my life! To be free from hydra! And…”
“And you don’t want to spend it with me? Or our children?” Hopelessly. Was how she said it. And when she put it that way James felt guilty.
“I-i yes! Alright!” He took his regret out on her, in anger.
“I can’t fucking stand to be in this house! The mess! The noise! The nothingness! There’s nothing here!” He yelled
“Our kids are here! I’m here! Our family and love and home is here! We built this! I thought you loved us” she cried, sobbed, feeling like her whole life had been ripped apart.
Because…it had.
Lately I can’t seem find myself no sleep at all. Lately I just lie awake and hear and dream of a time when she was mine,felt like I had it all. But life is long, my love has gone away from me.
In different beds, in different houses that are not quite home. The broken couple that is no longer one lies awake. Thinking, missing, and dying for the other. The presence of one another still lingers on the other side of the bed. James sits in a half empty house. His kids rooms all cleared out, nothing but some left toys they didn’t want anymore. The other side of the closet, bathroom,and bedroom are still ‘moms side’ James in his heart is still married.
Y/n even though in a new house still has an empty space in the bathroom, closet, and bedroom, and her heart. Her stuff on right his on the left, but now she just has a half empty everything. She still makes room for him even though he is not there.
Gone away from me, gone away from me, gone away from me. Life is long, my love has gone away from me.
He didn’t want the endless hookups or a new woman every night like he once told her. He wanted what he used to have, what has left him. He pushed her away because of his insecurities. His arm, his age, his past, his ability to be a good father which he used to be. The kids were still young. Cecily and grant only 6 and 8, could he make it up them? Make it up to her?
Gone away from me. Life is long, my love has gone away from me. Yesterday is gone. Yesterday is dead. Get it through your head and walk away. Yesterday is gone ain’t no use of hanging on to her memory that only causes you pain.
“I’m sorry and I love you”
“Please don’t give me false hope. I love you James you’re the love of my life! But you made this decision and I- I don’t know if I could survive another thing like this happening. I’ll miss for the rest of my life.”
“I’ll miss you until the end of time.” He kissed her goodbye one last time before the kids could notice them, the two kids sitting in the car waiting for them to stop talking so they could go get ice cream with their dad.
At least he tried to get his life back after he broke it.
For awhile I sat there staring at her photograph. For awhile I cried and tried not to make a scene. There was a time when we were young I used to make her laugh. But life is long, my love has gone away from me.
🎞️
He sat and watched her marry a new man. One who could hold and keep his promises. And not let insecurities get in the way of his love and family. For this was James’ life now. Staring at her photograph.
The end
🥲

Two Heads of Hydra
Tumblr media
Pairing: Bucky Barns x Fem!Reader
Summary: A secret promise they made to each other, vowing to escape HYDRA and leave their lives as weapons behind. Even when they’d wipe Bucky’s mind, Y/N stuck by him, making that promise again and again. Their shared dream of freedom and a life beyond HYDRA had become their driving force.
Wc: 530
My first fanfic….? More of a background for a potential series…? Its simply experimental to get my writing brain working. I have many ideas, but while I’m working on this my requests are open! Don’t be shy and ask away ;)
When Y/N turned 20, Hydra put her on a mission with the infamous Winter Soldier, Bucky Barnes. The two spent their days training together, fighting side by side, and rarely leaving each other's sight. The efficiency with which they operated together swayed Hydra’s decision to keep them as a team.
As their missions continued, Y/N couldn't help but notice the torment that Hydra put Bucky through. Usually it wouldn’t phase her, but with Bucky it was different. It caused an anger to build within her, a protectiveness she couldn't explain but couldn't deny. Bucky had felt the same way about Y/N. Whenever she was hit or “disciplined” by Hydra's members, he would rush to her protection, holding back from killing anyone who laid a hand on Y/N, and she’d reciprocate without hesitation. The punishments for either of their acts or defiance were brutal – brainwiping and torture – so they both decided that it was better to suffer in silence for each other's sake.
In Y/N’s determination to save Bucky from his tormented existence, she found ways to prevent Hydra from wiping his memory. Y/N claimed that he held information for future missions, and surprisingly, it worked, at least for a while. Bucky would always question why she was helping him, he couldn’t believe someone would show him any kindness. Y/N’s response had always been the same, "We only have each other in this hell hole, and I need you conscious for when we escape."
Feelings had begun to grow on both sides. How could they not, but they both knew that acknowledging them was a luxury neither of them could afford. It was the unspoken kindness and care that was shared that kept them going in their prisons, providing a glimmer of hope amidst the despair.
However, when the time came for their escape, Hydra had already grown suspicious of their relationship. They searched Bucky's room and found his journal, a precious collection of his thoughts and memories. Despite the desperation Y/N felt trying to make sure they both got out, it had been too late. Bucky told her to leave, to get out of Hydra and save herself. It was a gut-wrenching decision, and she had no choice but to follow his orders. Y/N knew if she didn’t get out, they’d both be stuck.
Against her heart screaming at her to stay with Bucky, she made her esparce. Determined to keep the promise she had made to Bucky before they parted – to get him out. Before leaving Y/N managed to steal his journal, the only link to his past and his true self. She knew it would be essential for him when the time came to set him free.
Y/N had stepped foot in the outside world, finally free. But her mind was consumed with thoughts of Bucky and the day they’d reunite. She was dedicated to finding a way to rescue him from Hydra’s grasp, and the stolen journal became a symbol of Y/N’s unwavering commitment to the man who had become her partner, her protector, and her silent source of strength in the darkest of times.
Thank you beauties ~Olive ♡

The 30th by Billie Eilish
Tumblr media
Summary: (Alternative Unvierse) It’s been 5 months since you and Bucky official divorced. You still don’t understand what happened between you and him but a phone call from Memorial Hospital stops you in your tracks and shatters your world. 
Warning: car accident, injury based on that, mention of stalking
Word Count: 2.8K 
“Is this Mrs. Barnes?” A female voice asked. The last name that you haven’t used for a little over a year surprised you. You and Bucky have been separated for a year but divorced for 5 months. ‘Mrs. Barnes’ was a name you haven’t heard in a very long time. 
“Speaking, may I ask who's calling?” You asked. You were putting dishes away from dinner and your kids were asleep. 
“Of course ma’am, I am the head nurse on call at Memorial Hospital.” You sat down on the island. Your mind began to spiral on each possible situation. Was it your parents? Natasha? Steve? “Your husband was in a car accident.” The nurse said. Bucky must have kept you as his emergency contact. 
“How is he?” You asked. 
“He’s in serious condition but the doctors are doing everything they can.” Your heart stopped. The man you devoted so many years of your life to and the father of your children. You cleared your throat. 
“Can I come and see him?” You asked. 
“Yes, you can. I’ll let security know.” 
*
You were thankful your neighbor, Wanda, and her husband, Vision, were able to watch the girls. Their twins were the same age as your eldest, Rebecca, and Wanda loved Taylor. The girls asked a thousand and one questions but you assured them that everything was okay even though you weren’t sure if that was the truth. You kept your emotions at bay as you drove to the hospital. You had to be strong for your girls, for Bucky, and yourself. You and Bucky met through a mutual friend, Natasha. You went to college with her and she and Bucky knew each other when they were kids. Natasha invited Steve and Bucky to go out with you during your freshman year. A drunken one-night stand turned into a coffee date the next morning then 4 years of dating. He proposed the day after you graduated college. Life was good. You gave birth to two beautiful girls and were doing well in your respective careers; you as a lawyer and Bucky was working as a contractor at Steve’s construction company. Then something changed. He became distant. He was there for the girls but he began sleeping in the guest room. He worked late and was away for many weekends. Finally, you confronted him and he asked for some time apart. He moved out and then asked for a divorce. You were completely blindsided by it and it hurt because you were still in love with the man. 
*
A nurse brought you into his room. The sight took your breath away as you stared at Bucky. He was barely recognizable with machines attached to him, gauze keeping him together, and a tube down his throat. You were pretty sure a doctor came in to tell you the extent of Bucky’s injuries but their words weren’t registering with you. “Y/n,” you heard Natasha’s voice. You looked toward your friend. The doctors were gone and it was just you, Bucky, and her. She was wearing what she typically wore to work with her badge on her hip. 
“Nat, what-? How-?” Your brain was short-circuiting. 
“Let’s go talk somewhere else,” she led you out of Bucky’s room. You noticed an officer standing by Bucky’s door. Your friend led you to a conference room and you saw her partner, Maria. Steve called her Natasha’s work wife. You’ve met her a few times. 
“Natasha, what is going on?” You asked, sitting down. A cup of coffee was already in front of you. Natasha sat down next to Maria. 
“We don’t think Bucky’s crash was an accident,” Natasha said. You were stunned into silence. 
“We found another set of tire tracks at the scene and in our initial investigation we found another paint color on the back of Bucky’s car,” Maria added. You leaned back in your chair and covered your face with your hands. The room was quiet, too quiet. 
“Are you telling me someone tried to kill Bucky?” You finally asked, looking at Natasha. She nodded. 
“It appears so,” she said. “Bucky had no alcohol or drugs in his system.” That was no surprise, Bucky was straight as an arrow when it came to not drinking and driving. 
“Who the hell would try to kill him? Everyone loved him,” he was a little grumpy and as Sam said he had a ‘resting bitch face’ but he was a teddy bear. 
“Have you noticed anything strange?” Maria asked. You glared at her. 
“The man divorced me after being together for almost 10 years for no reason. Does that classify as strange?” You deadpanned, taking a sip of your coffee. You sighed. “Sorry. Before we got separated he was distant towards me but not the girls.” 
“Was there trouble at work that Steve didn’t know about?” Natasha asked. 
“I don’t know,” you told them. 
“Could someone from the law firm be angry enough with you to go after him?” It was possible. You’ve worked some major cases over your career and your relationship with Bucky was public knowledge. You’ve tried to keep your kids out of the spotlight. You’ve gotten your fair share of death threats from family members and criminals. 
“Maybe. I can have my assistant send you a list of people we’ve gotten threats from.” 
“Thank you. For now, I’m going to assign an officer to you and your kids. Are the girls at Wanda’s?” You nodded. “Okay, I’ll have Coulson go over there.”
“Thank you, Nat.” 
“Don’t thank me for just doing my job,” You said your goodbyes and headed back to Bucky’s room. You sent a text to Wanda explaining the situation and asked your assistant to send the information to Natasha and her team. You sighed, placed your phone in your pocket, and stood next to Bucky. You cupped his face gently in your hands and kissed his cheek. 
“Don’t leave me, sergeant,” you whispered. “That’s an order.” 
*
6 months later       
Bucky’s condition improved but he was still in a coma. The doctors were hopeful that he would wake up on his own as he had high brain activity. You brought the girls to see their father and explained the situation to them in a way they’d understand. You told Bucky’s family as well. It was nice talking to his mother and sister again. You split your time at your office, the hospital, and at home. You were exhausted. 
You were at the hospital working on a case when a knock on his door made you jump. You closed your laptop and looked at the door. It was Natasha, with a messenger bag over her shoulder. You saw the redhead almost every day. She was making sure you were taking care of yourself. “Hey Tash,” you said. “Are you here for work or pleasure?” 
“Work, unfortunately.” You gave her your full attention. You didn’t ask about the ongoing investigation. You didn’t have the brain capacity to focus on it and you trusted Natasha to get the job down. She sat down in the empty chair next to you. “Does the name Brock Rumlow sound familiar to you?” She asked. You nodded. 
“He was close friends with Alexander Pierce.” You put Pierce behind bars for conspiracy to commit murder when there was an attempt on Natasha’s boss’ life. You wanted to put Rumlow away too but there wasn’t enough evidence. 
“Did you also know he and Bucky knew each other?” She asked. You didn’t hide the shock on your face. “They knew each other back when Bucky served.” He didn’t talk about his time over there. But you knew it still affected him as nightmares kept him up. “Once Bucky was discharged due to him losing his arm, the two stopped talking.”
“What does this have to do with the car accident?” You asked. Natasha pulled out a folder from her bag and set a picture down in front of you. It was of Bucky and Rumlow, dated right before Bucky asked for a divorce. 
“Oh Buck,” you whispered. “What did you get yourself into?”
“They were meeting for a while.” She took the picture back into the file. “When you put Pierce away Rumlow lost it and went off the grid, the only time we resurfaced was to make contact with Bucky,” Natasha explained. 
“What did he want?” You weren’t sure if Natasha was going to tell you. 
“He wanted Bucky to help him break Pierce out of jail,” your stomach dropped. “He had some dirt on Bucky back when they served together and he threatened to release it. He also was following you and the girls,” she took out a few pictures of you and the girls at the park, grocery store, and the library. You rubbed your head. 
“How-how do you know all of this?” You asked. She pulled out an evidence bag. Inside were Bucky’s dog tags and his cell phone. 
“Bucky recorded every interaction. It took a while for the forensic team to pull the file off his phone.” She smiled at you. “He refused to help Rumlow and Rumlow caused the crash. The paint on Bucky’s car matched the car Rumlow has.” 
“What?” You said, speechless. “Why are you sitting here and not arresting the jackass?” She punched you in the arm. “Ouch!”
“Maria and Phil are handling the arrest. I thought you wanted to know the whole story before the press took hold of it.” The press was watching this case like a hawk. 
“Thank you. I won’t be able to play you back for everything you did.” She was working overtime on this case. 
“You and Bucky are family. Now you can focus on healing,” she stood up to leave. You walked over to the door and hugged her. “One more thing.” She said, facing you. “Bucky tried to call you the night of the crash. But he couldn’t get through to you. He recorded a voice memo.” 
“Did you listen to it?” You asked, already knowing the answer. She nodded. 
“Maria and I were the only ones that listened to it. I sent it to your email.” You nodded. “Listen to it when you are ready.” She gave you one last hug before leaving you. The machines that were attached to Bucky seemed louder than normal. Maybe they were trying to be heard over your pounding heart. You took your cell phone and headphones from your bag and walked over to the window. You plugged your headphones in and found the email Natasha sent you. She said to listen to it when you were ready. You weren’t sure if you ever would be ready. You put your headphones in and hit play as you stared at Bucky’s still form. 
It was silent besides the grunt or moan of pain. “Sugar, doll,” you felt your eyes burn with unshed tears. It’s been so long since he’s called you those pet names. “Fuck baby I messed up.” You couldn’t help but laugh. “I just wanted to keep you and the girls safe, you know?” He groaned. “I did some bad stuff overseas. Stuff I wasn’t ready to tell you. I thought I could handle Rumlow myself. So I distanced myself from.” He went quiet. “I thought if we weren’t seen together he couldn’t use you. I’m a fucking idiot.” 
“Yes you are Bucky Barnes,” you whispered, wiping the tears away that fell. 
“I miss you so much, baby girl. I don’t want to die without telling you how sorry I am,” you stood up and looked at Bucky. You ran over to him. 
“You aren’t going to die Barnes.” You said, cupping his face in your hands. Your tears fell onto his skin. 
“I love you. You and the girls are my worlds,” his voice continued. “Tell them that, will you?”
“Tell them yourself Bucky,” you whispered. “Tell them when you wake up.” It was becoming harder to make out his face because of how hard you were crying. “Please baby, you have to wake up.” 
“You made me a better man, doll.” His voice was becoming strained and hoarse. “Meeting you was when my life started. I love you.” The voice memo ended. You rested your head on his chest, mindful of his injuries, and cried. You haven’t cried through this whole ordeal. You let yourself cry and cry and cry. 
*
3 months later 
Bucky woke up a month after Rumlow’s arrest and when he was released from the hospital he moved back in with you and the girls. They were ecstatic to have their father back with them as he healed and recovered. But you and Bucky were walking on eggshells around each other, uncertain of how to act with one another. Sometimes he would act as he did before the accident, before the divorce and the separation. Then other times he would pull away. He doesn’t remember much from that night, especially the phone call he made. 
You had enough. For 2 months, you were at your breaking point. You sent the girls with your parents, you cooked his favorite food and dessert. The smell brought him out of the room. His hair was wet from a shower. “Do you need help?” He asked. You shook your head. 
“Can you set the table?” He nodded, grabbing two sets of plates and silverware. You were sipping on wine already. Once the food was done, you ate in silence. You watched him eat, slowly sipping on your wine. 
“You're starring,” he said. 
“I am,” he whipped his face with a napkin. 
“Can I ask what all this is for?” 
“After dinner.” He washed the dishes. It was the rule when you were together whoever cooked didn’t have to do the dishes. You pulled out the cheesecake and cut two slices. You handed him a plate. 
“It’s after dinner,” you nodded, taking a bite of your cheesecake. 
“Why didn’t you tell me?” You asked. He finished the cake and placed the dirty dish in the sink for later. 
“You are going to have to be more specific,” he said, walking over to the couch. 
“Rumlow. The fact that you knew him while I was working on the Pierce case,” he didn’t say anything as he sat down. You walked over to him and he was opening and closing his metal hand. “Or that he asked you to commit a crime and used me and the girls as leverage.” He still didn’t say anything. He wasn’t even looking at you. “We were a team, Bucky. Why didn’t you tell me?” He sighed. 
“Because I didn’t want you or the girls to find out that I’m a monster.” 
“What?” You questioned, sitting down next to you. 
“I was tasked with black op missions overseas. They nicknamed me the Winter Soldier. I did so many horrible things for this country,” he explained. “Rumlow was on a few of those missions. I wasn’t ready to tell you.” You looked forward, staring into the fireplace. 
“I know the man I married and fell in love with,” you said finally. “That man is not a monster.” 
“Doll-” he said.
“No,” you cut him off and knelt in front of him. “You are not a monster. I’m upset that you didn’t tell me but I understand.” He smiled. “You tried to call me the night of the accident but it wouldn’t go through so you left me a voice memo. Do you remember what you said?” He shook his head. 
“I vaguely remember it.” 
“You told me you loved me,” your voice cracked. “That you missed me and that you were sorry.” You smiled. “You told me that the girls and I are your worlds and that I made you a better man.” He nodded. 
“It’s the truth.” He whispered. 
“I was so scared Buck,” you admitted. “What if the accident happened on a different day? On a bridge where there wasn’t a railing in the way. Or a neighborhood street where the little kids play?” You felt the tears running down your cheeks. “What if you weren’t alone and the girls were in the car? What if you were remote and no one knew where you were? If you changed anything, would you have not survived?” 
“I’m alive,” Bucky said. 
“You're alive.” You repeated. “You’re alive.” He pulled you onto his lap and hugged you. He hugged you tight as you cried against him. You felt his tears on your skin. You ended the hug and put your forehead against his, staring into his blue eyes. A color you didn’t think you would see again. “You’re alive.”
“I’m alive.” He said against your lips. You connected them. The kiss was slow and salty from your tears but it was perfect. You were so scared that you’d never hear his voice again, kiss his lips, or feel his hands on you. He pulled away. “Thank you.” You smiled. 
“You said it on the phone, you're an idiot,” he laughed. 
“But I’m your idiot.” You nodded. 
“Yeah, you are.”

Day 17 ~ Breakfast In Bed
Tumblr media
How Spin the Bottle leads to breakfast in bed and confessed feelings.
“Do you guys want to play spin the bottle?” Tony asks wearing a mischievous grin. You all look at each other before looking at Tony again. “Seriously Mr Stark are we in high school.” You tease the man with a grin knowing he loves these sort of games. “I don’t see why we can’t.” Bucky says with a small smile as he shrugs his shoulders in the mood for some high school games.
All you can do is sigh because you would love the opportunity to kiss him, but what if he doesn’t feel the same. What if your brother says anything because it is his best friend? The thought of your brother not liking you together has been eating you up from inside for a while. But you know what, you are not going to screw up your only chance of kissing the man you had a crush on.
Now this caused Tony to smirk because he knows now you are going to give in, it was his plan after all to get you and Bucky to confess your feelings towards each other. “Alright let’s do this.” You say and James smiles at you with a shy grin. You take your place on the couch that formed a circle full of friends when the party started to die down a bit. Tony places a beer bottle in the middle of the group causing them all to groan but they gave in nonetheless because they know Tony will not give up. “Okay guys.” Tony claps his hands together. “Who wants to go first?" he grins at his colleagues and friends.
“Since Bucky agreed first why doesn’t he go first.” Steve grins as he is in on Tony’s plan. He really wants his best friend and sister to finally get together after years of pining. As Steve looks at James he smiles and nods towards the bottle. “Okay guys how this is going to work is if the bottle lands on you, you are going to go into that closet and do whatever you want for seven minutes.” Tony explains. “Everything is on the table” he smirked looking around the room.
Bucky sighs and moves forward to spin the brown bottle and your breath stops as the bottle starts slowing till it stops completely in front of you. “Y/N.” Natasha call you out of your daze. “Huh?” you look at the ginger and you catch the grin she sends to Steve. “Cool, cool. Ok Tin Man and Ms America it’s your turn.” Tony smirks as you and Bucky blush. Getting on your knees to stand up he follows you towards the closet. And your teams cheers all around you.
“Okay love birds when this door closes do whatever you want. You have seven minutes.” Tony said closing the door behind you and Bucky. “I’m so glad I get to do this with you.” James smiles at you “I’ve been waiting forever to kiss you so if you don’t feel the same please stop me now otherwise I will not be able to help myself.” You blush at the look on his face. “Please kiss me.” You pleaded and he pulls you into a kiss.
‘This day couldn’t possibly get any more perfect.’ you think and before you could think further he pulls away from the kiss. You smile at him and he chuckles. “Please kiss me again.” You whispered against his lips and he happily obliged. He leans forward closing the gap between your faces as he presses his lips, softly, against yours. You really love the feeling of his lips against yours.
As you guys sink towards the floor he places his hands on your hips to pull you onto his lap. You lift your hands to his cheeks rubbing softly as he moves your lips together. He bites your bottom lip as pulls away again to take a breather keeping his forehead against yours. He smiles at you in a shaky voice you begin talking. “That was better than I ever could have imagined it." He nodded pulling you in for a slow kiss before his tongue could enter your mouth the door opens.
“Times up love birds.” You hear your brother laugh as Bucky groans as he pulls away from you. “Guys.” Steve starts with a big grin. “If you wanna date go ahead. I would be happy if you guys are happy.” He smirks. “But just know if you hurt my little sister I will do nothing because she can look after herself.” He finishes as he see the look on your face knowing you are going to say something to him about looking after yourself.
“Okay guys if you will excuse us we are going to bed.” You say with a grin and the group cheered. “Finally.” They cheered again. As you blushed pulling him towards your room. “Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.” Tony called after you guys and you giggle before answering. “That is not a whole lot Tones.” He grins before yelling exactly as you and James leave the living room.
Tumblr media
When Bucky’s eyes opened the morning he knows he is not getting back to sleep. It was only 7 in the morning so he decided to make breakfast for his newly made girlfriend. The only issue is you look so cute cuddled into him he can’t get up just yet. It took about five minutes to get out but you wouldn’t let him go. So after he got everything made he went upstairs to wake you up.
“Good morning beautiful.” Bucky greeted with a small smile. “I brought you breakfast.” He said pointing at the tray of food on you bedside table. “Good morning handsome.” You greeted with a tired smile stretching as you sit up. “So last night wasn’t a very good dream.” He smiled at you. “No sweetheart.” He said pulling you into a side hug. “Good because I would be very upset if it was.” “Now what did you say about breakfast.” You giggle when you smell French toast, as he pulls you into a good morning kiss you could not help but sigh in content. “I just wanted to say. I really do love you Y/N. I have since we were teens even though it has been a while I really am glad I get to call you my girlfriend.” He said smiling down at you. “I love you too Buck.” You smile up at the man you have loved since you were teens. “I am also really glad I get to call you my boyfriend.”

COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE..
Tumblr media
Bucky x Fem reader!
(Y/n) and Bucky are set up to go on a blind date to get their minds off of the hectic lives they both live in, their mutual friend told them about one another and now here they are.
Little to much backstory about the main character I promise it’s important for the next part of the story!
Tumblr media
This chapter contains: flirting, small talk, smirking, teasing, slight touch, coffee date, exhausted body, height difference, dominant behavior, and submissive tendencies, main character energy
Word count: 4,172 (girl I couldn’t stop)
Tumblr media
(Y/n) was a strange specimen of a woman she often thought to herself, she spent most of her days rushing off to work taking the New York trains stopping along the way, at her usual stops, always making sure she had enough time as usual.
First at the corner store grabbing her coffee that was most days brewed in a burnt coffee pot giving it a strong kick she always thought she needed, or in a clean coffee pot knowing business has been slow that day giving the worker time to scrub the pot clean. “You know I could kill you, the coffee tastes better when you’re in a rush, serving thousands of customers” (y/n) said she’d always tell the worker earning a chuckle out of the both of them as they say their goodbyes as she leaves on her way to her next stop.
Second as she sips on her coffee she walks into the local cafe grabbing a cinnamon raisin bagel with plain cream cheese, one for her and one for her friend along the way. She exits humming to herself as she has one headphone in, her phone buried in her pocket and the long earbud string tucked inside under her shirt as it came out from the collar so they wouldn’t fall out as she walked or sometimes ran up the stairs in a rush. Listening To the same music as usual, music from the 50s or 60s, made her seem to float away from her daily life.
(Y/n) always seemed to take a bite from her bagel as she adjusting her strap of her tote bag while she ran down the subway stairs, taking the time to chew on her piece of bagel as she got the bottom of the stairs she’s glance over at the estimated arrival for her train making sure she was going to be on time, she always ways, she always took the time to leave a hour or two early to make sure she had time to stop.
(Y/n) made her way through the crowd swiping her metro card as she slid through the gate saying a few small mumbled “sorry”s as she moved to the left going towards her train admiring as there were travelers staring at the city map trying to figure out where they were. “You guys are here, kinda old so it’s hard to tell.” She would say happily to the people as she pointed to the scratched up plastic covering the map protecting it from the millions of people who touch it.
As she made It the train platform she’d glance around looking for her now called friend as she notices she walked over smiling happily, she had been taking the train for years now, always watching as people ignored a man begging for food, nothing else from her at least, she bought him a bagel one day and now it’s a part of her daily routine.
“Here you go mitch, as usual.” She hummed happily to him, taking the bagel out of the tote bag handing it to him, smiling at him as he took it. “Any good music today?” Mitch asked as he took a bite out of the bagle letting out a satisfied hum making (y/n) chuckle. “Can’t we be sweethearts? Why don’t we fall in love? right from the start, you’re the girl I’m dreaming of.” (Y/n) began to sing out, making her foot tap against the pavement. “The cleftones! God i love that song” Mitch called out making (y/n) chuckle as she nodded. “I’ll see you later, don’t wanna be late!” She said softly, making Mitch smile as he took another bite. “Oh you’ll never be late.” He hummed to her making them both chuckle as she ran off toward her train as the doors opened.
Present day
(Y/n) can’t help but let out a small groan as she pushed the heavy covers off of her, not really wanting to get up and out of bed. She hadn’t gotten to bed until midnight last night, which may seem normal to most people but she was tossing and turning for two hours before eventually taking some melatonin to make herself knock out.
(Y/n) sat up on her bed, her back rested against her headboard and pillows as she grabbed her phone checking the time and for any messages or phone calls. All she saw was a message from her friend Natasha. “You better be there, I wanna hear all about it!” (Y/n) read aloud making herself huff as she replied back with a simple “okay.”
(Y/n) opened up her music app letting it play as she sat her phone on the nightstand, sliding off of the bed slipping on her slippers as she walked over the closet humming along to the music as she flipped through shirts finding what one to wear. She settled on a Led Zeppelin shirt that was tie dyed with bleach and a flannel that was her favorite neutral color terracotta, just a good middle tone that made her eyes bright as diamond she’s been told when she was younger so she always wore the color.
After picking out her shirts she moved over to her dresser pulling open the drawer already knowing what pants to grab as she picked up a pair of nice navy blue jeans that hugged her in all the right places. Along with a pair of underwear and socks in the drawer next to the one she had open. She tossed all the clothes onto the bed and closed the drawers making her way to the bathroom.
As she got into the bathroom she did her business, then got to work on her hair, she began to brush it out from the shower she took last night making her hair curl up as she tossed and turned it always made her hair look curly but with a simple brush through it was gone so she always brushed it. Once her hair was brushed through she used a small claw clip and pulled her side pieces out of her face as she began with her make up. All she applied was winged eyeliner and mascara not watching to go over the top.
Once done in the bathroom brushing her teeth, she went back out to her room kicking off her slippers as she pulled her pajama shirt off tossing it to the side near the hamper grabbing her bra she threw on the ground yesterday as she changed into her pajamas, She pulled on her shirt and flannel then pulled her pants on. Glancing over at the clock on her nightstand seeing that 30 minutes had already passed making her huff as she pulled her socks on sliding on her vans that were the same Terracotta color as her flannel.
(Y/n) grabbed her phone from her nightstand and her tote bag making sure she had her keys and wallet as she turned the music off and tossed the phone into her bag, quickly going into the bathroom to put on another round of deodorant and grabbed her perfume spritzing herself a good 20 times all around as she spun around making sure she was fully coated in the strawberry scented perfume.
Once she was satisfied and felt as if her head was on straight she grabbed her keys out of her bag turning off the lights in her apartment as she locked the door backing into the hallway, she tossed her keys into her bag as she began to walk towards the stairs seeing her neighbors had a garbage bag outside her door so she grabbed it as she walked down the stairs and tossed it out as she exited the building knowing her neighbors would do the same for her.
(Y/n) walked down the sidewalk going towards the train station frowning a little as she passed by the corner store where she would usually stop but how could she get coffee if she needed to be going on a coffee date. She huffed softly as she waited for the light to change and crossed the street when it was safe, once she made it to the train station she swiped her metrocard and took a left waiting for the train going uptown.
“Oh look at you all dolled up!” Mitch called out as (Y/n) walked onto the train platform, she turned her attention towards him and lightly shook her head. “Oh please, this is nothing.” She said as she pretended to bat her eyelashes at him making them both chuckle as she listened to the train as it slammed on its brakes to stop and pick the people up. “I'll be back later, with your bagel I promise!” (Y/n) called out as she rushed to get into the train car and waved at Mitch as he nodded, smiling happily at her.
(Y/n) eventually made it to the train stop, getting off with the crowd of people as she opened up her message with Natasha making sure she was going to the right place, so she clicked onto the link of the address and nodded to herself knowing exactly where it was at so she turned her phone back off and stuffed it back into her pocket.
After walking a few blocks, she turned the corner and saw the cafe, she smiled softly as she noticed there was a place that you could sit outside at, noticing a couple sipping on their coffee talking amongst themselves. She let out one last small sigh as she had already made it to the cafe so there was no going back now.
(Y/n) walked into the cafe clearing her throat a little as she stepped aside so other people can still walk into the cafe as she glanced around a little looking for her date, the only thing she had in mind was a tall man that had short hair with a scruffy looking beard, he always wore leather. This is all Natasha told her, when (Y/n) asked more about the man Natasha would hum to her saying “Oh you’ll find out, you two will be perfect together. He’s just what you need.” With a wink making (Y/n) roll her eyes at her friend's words.
After a few seconds (y/n) laid eyes on a man who was turned with his back towards her, facing the window as he observed people walking past, she watched as he leaned back into his seat adjusting his leather jacket as he settled into his seat she could tell he had the short hair she was told about and when a customer's name was called he glanced over giving her to view of his scruffy beard.
(Y/n) walked over to the table adjusting her tote bag on her shoulder and pushed some of her hair behind her one ear smiling softly. “James is it?” She spoke out once she had gotten to the table and smiled softly at him as he turned his attention towards her.
“Yes, but most people call me Bucky, or Barns. Kinda strange I guess.” He states as he cleared his throat and pushed his seat back standing up, standing tall and proud at six feet tall making (y/n) take a step back since she was only the average female height of five foot four inches. “It’s nice to meet you.” He said softly as he looked down at (y/n) with a soft smile.
“It’s nice to meet you too, I’m (y/n).” She started out as she returned the small smile and turned in her spot a little looking over at the line of people who were ordering. “Yeah, I know. Anyway, shall we order?” Bucky said, pulling (y/n)’s attention back to him as she raised an eyebrow at him slightly at his ‘I know’ remark.
“Sure, gotta decide what I want anyways.” (y/n) mumbled out as she watched him grab his backpack, slinging it over his shoulder as he began to walk toward the end of the line as she finished off her sentence following behind him.
Once she made it into line behind him she let out a small sigh slightly already regretting the decision to show up, since he seems to not want to be there. (y/n) was pulled out of her thoughts as he stepped aside so that she could see the menu as well he continued to look at the multiple options finally settling on something he thought sounded good to him.
“The caramel macchiato sounds good..” Bucky stated as he glanced over at (y/n) for a second taking the chance to admire her side profile as she kept looking at the menu with her eyebrows slightly squinted as she tried to read through all the options as there were too many to pick from.
“Yeah, I don’t know though. Don’t like anything too sweet..” (y/n) stated as she looked away from the menu and glanced over at him feeling that he was looking at her making her show him a small grin as they were next in line. She watched as he looked back up at the menu and gripped onto the strap of his backpack as he stepped forward.
“Morning. I’d like a tall Black coffee with a little bit of sugar.” He stated as he cleared his throat a little, showing the barista taking their order a small smile. “And whatever she’d like.” He added as he stepped aside letting (y/n) step up to the counter.
(Y/n) watched as he stepped aside and said this to the barista. She took a step so she was in front of the counter and showed the barista a smile. “Good morning, I’ll take a tall black coffee, no sugar, no cream, just your darkest roast please. Gotta make sure I’ll be awake.” (y/n) joked with the barista as she took the order making the girl laugh making (y/n) smile happily, she always tried to make people laugh because she knew it made her feel special for being so talkative compared to her younger self.
“Would you like anything to eat?” The barista asked as she looked between the both of them and the two of them lightly shook their heads. “Okay your total is $6.45.” The barista said happily as she looked at the both of them.
Bucky pulled out his wallet from his pocket and pulled out a $10 bill handing it to her with a smile “You can go ahead and just keep the change.” Bucky stated as he handed the baristas the bill, he then stepped aside so the other customers could order as he glanced over at (y/n) watching as she moved around him walking over to the other side of him waiting for their order to be called.
“Two tall black coffees, one with sugar.” The other barista called out not long after since it was a simple order compared to other things on the menu. “Thank you!” (y/n) hummed out happily to the other barista with a smile as she grabbed both of the coffees as there were other customers lingering over the counter desperately waiting for their coffees.
“Excuse us.” Bucky stated as he moved behind (y/n) holding his hand on the small of her back as he followed behind her through the crowd of people to get back to the free space of the cafe making sure she didn’t bump into anyone.
Once they were in the clear he moved his hand away from her back. “So, would you like to sit inside or outside?” He asked as he raised an eyebrow at her, now taking in the fact that her cheeks were now a light shade of pink.
“Inside is fine, the chairs are more comfortable.” (y/n) said softly to him as shyly looked down at the cups of coffee reading the labels on them seeing which one was hers, once she knew it was hers she took a long sip, not being able to help it as she let out a small moan from the pleasant surprise of how strong the coffee was.
After taking a sip (y/n) held the other cup of coffee that was bucky’s out to him so he could grab it. “Is it that good?” Bucky asked as he took his cup from her hand raising it up to his lips as he took a sip letting out a small groan of pleasure as well making (y/n) let out a small chuckle as she nodded in response to his question as if to tell him ‘I told you so.’
(Y/n) turned around and hummed softly as she looked around the cafe finding a table that was close to the window walking over to it. (y/n) took a seat on the bench so that her back was against the window, as she settled into her seat she let the tote bag slide off her shoulder and set it next to her as she leaned back into the comfortable padding on the chair as she watched Bucky take his seat across from her.
“So Natasha set this all up, how do you know her? From college? Any fun stories I can tease her about?” (Y/n) asked as she leaned back into her seat more settling into the comfortable seat behind her as she waited for a response.
As she waited for a response she kept her eyes up on him now having the time to actually take in his features and his whole essence. She couldn’t help but think about his simple gesture as he held onto the small of her back as they walked through the crowd of people earlier, making her mind race off to a couple different places thinking about if he was controlling now, would he be controlling in bed.
“I actually just met her pretty recently, she’s friends with one of my long time friends, well he’s more like a brother to me. They know each other and I guess I’m friends with her now, if that makes sense.” Bucky stated as he sat up in his seat a little more keeping his eyes on her as her eyes looked him up and down in his spot making a small smirk appear on his face, he always liked the attention but he still wasn’t sure about the whole situation since it’s been years since he’s dated or even went on a date.
Bucky cleared his throat as he sat his backpack on the ground next to them and leaned back into his seat so he seemed more relaxed watching as her eyes moved from his face down towards his chest making him chuckle. “How exactly do you know Natasha?” He asked his voice firm as he wondered if she knew about Steve and the others, wondering what exactly she knew about him.
“Oh I know her because she comes into my work, just small talk here and there. She invited me for lunch and we have been friends ever since.” (Y/n) stated as she watched him lean back in his seat a little knowing well that he was doing it on purpose so she could look at his chest so she pulled her eyes up towards him to give him her full attention.
Taking the time to observe his facial features as he looked at her with a somewhat cautious look in his eyes, something (y/n) always seems to know about people, no matter if they had just met. She liked to make people laugh and observe people making people feel safe and welcomed but this man was different, she couldn’t seem to put her finger on it.
“Do you know much about her? She's the kind of person that many people don't know much about.” Bucky asked as he sat up in his seat a little bit trying to see if he could get the information from her, seeing if she would give him any clues about how much she knows exactly about their whole situation.
“The only thing we talk about is what she is reading or researching, just small talk.” (Y/n) stated as she watched him sit up in his seat making her do the same thing as she knew what he was trying to do, get information from her making her smirk a little as she raised her coffee cup taking a sip as her eyes were locked with his taking in the fact that his pupils were beginning to dilate in interest.
“Oh, and one time she told me that she got the chance to kiss some guy named Steve, it was for work according to her, but it still was interesting, it got her pretty worked up.” (y/n) stated as she sat up in her seat a little more taking in the fact that bucky began i lean in his seat more getting closer to her with a wide grin on his face.
“Oh is that so, now I have something over their heads.” bucky stated as he kept his eyes on (y/n) as he looked at her with a wide smirk, knowing that now he can tease his best friend about his “work relationship” he let out a soft chuckle as he watched (y/n) take a sip of her coffee, and shrug a little. “Hey she deserves it, I don't know who the Steve guy is but she teases me about getting a boyfriend all the time.” (y/n) stated as she sat the cup of coffee down back on the table looking down a little as she leaned back into her seat.
“Oh so she told you that you need a boyfriend, you seem pretty independent.” Bucky stated as he took a few seconds to look her up and down a little as she leaned back in her seat. “ You seem to have your needs met..” Bucky added as he looked back up at her eyes with a small smirk as he licked his lips a little as he raised the cup to his lips taking a sip as he kept his eyes locked on hers. “Unless I'm wrong, then I might be available to help you out.” he added with a smirk as he sat his cup down on the table waiting to hear her reaction.
(Y/n) listened to bucky as he said, this sitting up in her spot with everyone of his statements keeping her eyes locked on his as she looked him up and down as he did the same to her making her lean her elbows against the table listening to the last of his little speech seeing his smirk making her return the gesture and smirk back as he slowly leaned back into her seat once again.
“If i may, her exact words were..” (y/n) began to say as she reached into her pocket grabbing her phone, opening up the messages between her and natasha. “You don't have to marry him, just grab a coffee together and see where it leads to.” (y/n) said aloud as she read the message keeping her eyes down on her phone, setting it on the table between them so he could see the message himself as she looked back up at him her eyes now dilated as well from the fact she was intrigued to see his reaction.
“But i don't know, maybe i do want to marry you, that'll for sure prove her wrong, don't you think sweetheart..” (y/n) said changing her tone to a somewhat submissive tone to tease him watching as he pupils grew darker with lust from just her simple change in the tone of her voice. “But let's not get ahead of ourselves sir, it is only a first date after all..” (y/n) added still in the submissive voice as she watched his grip on his cup tighten making a small chuckle come from her.
“Who knows maybe we will get married, seems like you need someone who will put you in your place.” Bucky stated as his voice had grown slightly more deep making (y/n) begin to breathe a little more heavily as she bit her lip, keeping her eyes locked on his as she listened to him. “Someone who will let you be you, but take care of you, make sure you're satisfied.” Bucky hummed out as he took a sip of his coffee, setting the cup down taking in the fact that (y/n) was biting her lip making him chuckle softly.
“But you’re right princess, this is only the first date..” Bucky stated as he showed her a small smirk looking her up and down one more time as he leaned back into his seat himself. “Just saying this could have been worse, much worse.”

Not Worth It (Bucky Barnes x Reader)
Tumblr media
A/N: So I saw the original idea for this quite a while ago on TikTok, and honestly just got around to writing it now. I felt Bucky maybe deserved a happier ending than what he got in Endgame when Steve Rogers decided if was hoes before bros. ANYWAY I hope you like it, and as always, thank you for reading!
Fighting Thanos for the second time seemed like it was going to be the hardest thing you’d ever had to go through.
The loss, the hopelessness those five years after the snap. It was devastating, your only comfort now knowing he wasn’t coming back this time.
Returning the stones was all you had left to do, and Steve volunteered to be the one to do. Always the overly helpful one.
The last one needed to be returned to the 1940’s, where the tesseract resided at time.
You and Steve had grown rather close, and while neither of you had exactly confessed your feelings yet, the mutual adoration was there.
Now outside, waiting while Banner fired up the Quantum Realm, something felt off about wishing Steve luck this time.
You stood beside Bucky, watching as Steve hugged him tightly.
“Gonna miss you buddy,” Bucky told Steve as he pulled away from their hug.
“It’s gonna be okay Buck,” Steve reassured, giving his best friend a small smile, although the solemn look on Bucky’s face didn’t change.
Steve then turned to you, wrapping his arms around you as you gripped onto him tightly.
He leaned down, pressing a kiss to your forehead.
“I’ll be back in five seconds, sweetheart,” he told you softly.
You only nodded, a heavy feeling settling in your stomach.
“If anything happens, take care of her for me,” Steve said, the comment out of place, as he’d just reassured you, he’d be back.
“I got it,” Bucky said, nodding.
Truthfully, Bucky would do so regardless. He’d never tell, as you obviously preferred the Captain to the Sergeant, but he was absolutely smitten with you. He’d bend over backwards if you’d asked.
“Don’t do anything stupid till I get back,” Steve joked, making Bucky crack a smile, an inside joke between old friends.
“How can I? You’re taking all the stupid with you,” Bucky replied, shoving his hands into his jacket pockets.
Steve chuckled and turned around, grabbing the case containing the final stone and stepping up into the platform.
Sam joined you and Bucky off to the side, if he could feel the anxiety rolling off the both of you, he didn’t say.
“Alright, ready?” Bruce called, looking up from the control panel to Steve.
Steve nodded, looking over at you again, “Five seconds!” he called.
Smiling, you nodded again, but the butterflies in your stomach didn’t cease. Steve activated the helmet, securing himself from any harmful elements.
“Okay, three, two, one!” Bruce announced, and with the click of a button, Steve vanished.
It was silent for just a moment before Bruce spoke again, “Alright, coming back in five, four, three, two, one!".
The click of the button was the only sound made. Steve didn’t appear again on the platform.
Clearly confused, Bruce hit the button again, then again.
“Where is he?” Sam asked, worry evident in his tone.
Beside you, Bucky hung his head, that was all you needed to realize. Steve wasn’t coming back.
Turning on your heel, you could feel the tears threatening to spill over. You began trudging back towards the house.
He’d promised, last night when you had that talk by the lake where Tony’s memorial was held only days before. He’d promised you he’d come back, and he’d give you an answer, a real answer to how he truly felt about you.
This was answer enough, it was clear where his priorities lay when he disappeared from that platform.
You stopped just before the dirt path leading up to the cabin where the remaining Stark family resided, scrubbing at your eyes with the back of your hand, attempting to stop the tears.
Anger, sadness, and loss were hitting you in waves, your breathing was short as you began to hyperventilate.
Fuck Thanos, this was worse, so much worse.
A gentle hand on your shoulder made you jump as you spun around, Bucky stood there, a sad smile on his face.
“He’s not worth it,” Bucky told you, dropping his hand from your shoulder.
“What?” you managed to choke out, your face getting red at the embarrassment you felt, crying in front of people was something you’d always hated.
“He’s not worth the tears, doll” Bucky told you, voice cracking just slightly.
You sobbed, reaching out for one of the only other people who could truly feel the devastation you felt now.
Bucky took you in his arms, and he held you tightly to him, letting you cry into his shoulder.
One hand rested gently on the back of your head, the other wrapped around your waist.
“H-He promised Buck…,” you whimpered, your body felt heavy, defeated.
“I know,” he replied, not really knowing what else to say.
How could he truly comfort the girl who’d been completely in love with his best friend? The best friend who decided the past was more important and meaningful than the future.
“He was all I had left,” you spoke again, voice hollow.
Bucky gently pried you off him then, taking your face in his hands, the metal of his left one cool against your flushed skin.
“Look at me,” he told you when you wouldn’t meet his gaze. When you did the sadness in your eyes made his heart shatter just a bit more.
“You got me, okay?” Bucky told you, “I’m here, and I’m not leaving.”
You shook your head, trying to remove Bucky’s hands from your face.
“No, no,” Bucky chided you, “I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere, got it? You got me, doll, anytime, anywhere. Forget him, he obviously had no idea what he was letting go.”
Choking out a small laugh, you only reached for him again, holding him tightly as if he’d disappear too.
Bucky hugged you again, planning to hold you there as long as you needed him too.
After a few moments, you pulled away from him slightly, “And you do?” you asked him.
Bucky’s brow furrowed, “What?” he asked.
“You said Steve had no idea what he was letting go, so, what was he letting go?” you questioned.
“Someone who deserves more than what she’s been dealt,” Bucky replied, making you blush.
“And that is?” you countered, wiping at the tears still on your cheeks.
“Let me take you for a drink, and I’ll tell you,” Bucky quipped, smirking slightly at the blush on your face.
You eyed him for a moment before leaning up and pecking his cheek softly, “Deal.”

SNOWFALL
Part 4 Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader
Tumblr media
Another Friday passed signaling the end of another week. Bucky still didn’t exist in your world. He had been gone. It was you and Steve sitting in the common area waiting for a text to start your meeting. The newest mission was right around the corner. You assumed Bucky would return in time for the departure.  The more you thought of him the more rage filled your body. Steve placed his large hand over your balled fist gently. “I know” was all he said. He was so used to making excuses for his friends behavior as he learned to work through his trauma. It was always a painful affair. And to be honest you blamed yourself. You always picked the difficult type. “It’s time” Steve announced and you finally stopped bouncing your leg. It was a habit you didn’t know you still had. Walking in tensely next to Steve he could feel the heat waves coming off of you. “Breathe y/n. If I know Bucky as well as I think I do, he won’t be there”Steve tried to calm you but it wasn’t working. Just the thought of seeing him made you so mad you could start seeing colors. Glancing up at the captains face you came to a realization. “You know where he is” you grumbled. Steve sighed, avoiding eye contact wrestling with himself if he should tell you the truth. “Uh yeah I do” he gave in, “he went on a solo assignment.” You just shook your head, “so I’m such a let down that he has to leave to get away from me”  you spat out in disgust before turning sharply into Fury’s office lobby.
“Steve claims that you have been training well enough to get back out there, is that true?” Nick asked you towering over your sitting figure. “Yes sir” you replied simply but with a bite. Nick raised his eyebrow in fascination. “Well then you leave tomorrow night. It will be a few days before you’re back home again. Steve has the debrief” , he stated as he handed the folder over to your team leader. “Great” you mentioned before abruptly getting up and leaving in a hurry to be with cigarettes and your thoughts.
A half a pack of cigarettes and a few beers later you laid down in your bed feeling ready to sleep. It would be the last chance to get some good hours in before leaving for a few days. You had closed your eyes and drifted off easily due to the alcohol in your system. Your dreams were filled with music and black leaving you to sleep peacefully for the first time in forever. A knock shook you from your blissful state instantly igniting a rage within you. Everyone knew if it was actually quiet in your room during the night to leave you the hell alone unless it was a Thanos level threat. You begrudgingly made your way to open your door to find Bucky looking disheveled and desperate. He had dark circles forming under his eyes and looked like he hadn’t been taking care of himself. “Y/N” he softly spoke, pulling at your stomach and making it flip. Without a word from you in return you slammed the door in his face. All the emotional baggage and anger bubbling over, taking over your brain. You stood with your back against the door panting as you tried to come back into yourself. Bucky stood at the door for a moment before turning around and leaving. You heard footsteps retreating and panicked. In one motion you opened the door and ran through it. You reached out and grabbed his hand to stop him from taking any more large steps. Your poor short legs couldn’t quite keep up. He stopped moving the second your skin touched together. He gave you the saddest look as you sighed and bowed your head. Gently you lead him inside your apartment in silence. The communication was understood between the two of you without words. You climbed into your bed and looked at him as he stood at the side of your bed speechless. You patted the empty side next to you and laid down getting comfortable trying not to wake yourself up too much so you could go back to sleep. The bed bounced softly as Bucky climbed in and got under the covers. You let out a deep breath with your eyes closed relaxing your body despite the rapid heart rate.
You had fallen asleep easily which was a surprise but a welcome one. Bucky laid there counting your breaths. It was something he did on missions when you were gone for days on end, it was something you didn’t know he did. It was his way of calming his anxiety at night. Within an hour bucky was finally safe from his thoughts. The room filled with the exhausted winter soldiers snores that you remained completely unaware of. Bucky mumbled groggily in his sleep, breaking yours. You lazily picked up your heavy arm and placed a finger on his lips making a soft shushing sound. Your finger stayed draped over his soft lips. He fell silent once again and you settled back into the soft pillows. The birds alerted you of mornings arrival dragging your body back to reality as the day began. The familiar sounds of recruits jogging in formation outside your window filled your ears. A smile was plastered on your face as you rolled over to find an empty bed. Your heart sank deep within your chest. The familiar sharp pain returning after such a quick reprieve. Sighing you rubbed your face trying to wake yourself up some more. The disappointment filled every inch of your body making you sluggish. Why did he keep doing this to you ? Why did you let him? 
At breakfast that morning you sat down next to Loki. “How are we feeling this morning, neighbor?” He asked innocently. Loki was one of your favorite people to hang out with because he never judged you and it was always a good time. Oftentimes you hung out in his apartment late at night because he was always up reading. You looked up and assessed the room seeing Bucky close by.  “Feeling pretty shitty after getting ghosted but you know whatever” you sarcastically snapped. His shoulders dropped at your words. It made you smirk that your words hit their target. He should know how you feel. It was a shitty thing to do. “A one night stand snuck out to avoid the walk of shame?” Loki asked with a chuckle in his voice. “I wish it was that simple” you mumbled sadly before getting up and leaving the kitchen. You blazed past Bucky in a flame of anger. “Y/n” he practically whispered as you whipped by him. You turned sharply on a dime, “just don’t. I’ll see you on the quinjet, 2200, don’t be late.” You snapped the order to find a surprised expression on his face. “Yes ma’am” he replied shakily. You whipped your head around and began walking away as fast as you could before you did anything you would regret.
