Reading 'Making Money' at the moment and I love how in this one Adora Belle is so CLEARLY the A-plot character. She's off commanding armies of golems and uncovering secrets from lost civilizations and marches back to town like "Hey Moist, come help me find a wizard to translate this ancient scroll" and he's just standing there giving Spencer from iCarly like "Ummmmm. Does it have to be like, right now...? Only, you see, my dog's just been made chairman of the bank—"
#Obviously Moist's thing is important too but the contrast between his job and hers is simply hilarious#like that one tweet 'My dad and I are both working from home right now. He's ordering new fuselage prototypes for Boeing--'#'--and I'm drawing a picture of a duck'#Except that in this case it's actually the latter person who keeps getting hunted down by corporate assassins#discworld#making money#moist von lipwig#adora belle dearheart#gnu terry pratchett

Answer Love’s Call

Summary: James Bucky Barnes WAS an avowed bachelor and one night stand artist. You came along and he fell in love. He is about to propose. But something is off. You need time to come to terms about what this love will mean in the future. And how in the world you will deal with it.
Pairing: Art Dealer (mob boss) Bucky Barnes x Reader
A/N: Okay, we're at Christmas. 😅 Hey guys. This one is close to my heart. Some of this is very personal to me, as a high functioning person who might be a little bit different. I hope you enjoy this.
This fic is in the Knock You Down AU, and comes immediately after both Worth the Fall and the Steve Rogers fics Peach VII and Peach 7.5 Also this ask is referenced.
Warnings: 18+ Only, Minors DNI. Read at your own risk. Smut! LOTS of angst, Frumoasa is spiraling, y'all, running away, a sexy ex, jealous, spiraling Bucky, a doctor's visit surprise, Frumoasa realizes she is not nero-typical, a beautiful mountain chalet Christmas, Steve x Peach, extended family, an icicle surprise, and Bucky helps Frumoasa relax, hard. Dom/sub elements, references to bdsm, use of 'Daddy,' oral (m receiving) spanking, anal play, attempted edging, raw p in v, praise kink, breeding kink, yeah. :)

I Do NOT Consent to my work being reposted, translated or presented on any other blog or site other than by myself.
------
The day after the gala, you woke up with your head pounding. You were over warm, and your heart was beating fast, although you could hear Bucky’s steady breathing beside you.
You turned and watched him for a moment, his handsome face relaxed and also, strangely, confident.
He looked so sure, so steady.
But the day before proved that you didn’t necessarily know what was coming next and that made your stomach rumble and twist in knots.
It might have been too much champagne, or it might have been the rollercoaster of emotions from the entire day before.
Your thoughts were all over the place about you and Bucky. Next week, you would be at the cabin in Vermont for the holidays, and he was planning to propose there.
Maybe? Maybe not?
The uncertainty was eating at you. Your mind was swirling.
Bucky stirred, his hand instinctively reaching for you. You let him pull you close, and you kissed him lightly on the lips.
“Morning,” he murmured, his voice thick with sleep.
Your body, as always, responded to him. Hell, the day before you’d practically attacked him. Something about the way he looked lately was making you feral.
“Morning,” you responded.
He opened those beautiful eyes still heavy with sleep and peered at you through his eyelashes.
“You good?”
You hesitated. You could tell him, you thought. You could spill every crazy thought running through your mind. But you didn’t
So you gave him the easy answer.
“Yeah, I’m good.”
He smiled, content with your answer, and closed his eyes again.
You two had tumbled into bed after the gala, very much under the influence. If Bucky had been fully awake, he would have noticed that you were not, in fact, good.
You kissed his forehead and whispered that you were getting up to pee, which earned a grunt, a nod, and side smile.
You went to the kitchen and some tea to soothe your headache and some eggs for your stomach and then sat at the bar and ate, staring out onto the landscape of New York City at Christmastime.
You had time to really sit with your thoughts. You hadn’t lied to Peach. She and Steve were perfect together; and they’d done what felt right, what made sense for them.
But what they did made you spiral, because in your head you had more time to get used to them really being together. You’d give a million dollars to harness what Peach had, that spontaneity.
Bucky Barnes pulled that out of you, but right now you were feeling unsafe, out of control.
You were wrapped up in too many feelings: the drug of loving Bucky, the extreme high of sex with him, and then your own anxiety and intrusive thoughts.
Steve and Peach were headed to Atlanta today and then on to Vermont to spend a few days on a mini-moon before everyone arrived on the 23rd.
Your phone, which had been plugged up on the bar, started to vibrate, and you saw that it was your mother. You also saw that she had called twice before.
You knew she was calling about Steve and Peach and you just couldn’t do it at the moment.
You silenced the call and then walked through the bedroom into the closet and grabbed one of the expensive luggage pieces that Bucky’d bought you.
Maybe a few days at your place would help you sort things out.
—---
In the middle of packing, you turned to see Bucky leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed, his expression pure frustration.
Your eyes skimmed down his bare chest, following the trail of happiness between his pecs and down those abs that you ended up licking the day before, down his delicious belly button to disappear under the waistband of the grey sweats slung low on his hips.
There was more deliciousness in there, of that you were certain.
Suddenly, you wanted to fuck him stupid again, and you wiped the corners of your mouth to make sure you weren’t drooling.
“Frumoasa, what’s going on?”
His voice was tight, controlled, but barely.
You shook your head, feeling crazy. You gripped the t-shirt (of his) you’d been packing in your hands.
“I just... I need some time,” you admitted. “Before Vermont.”
His jaw clenched and those eyes blazed.
“Time for what?”
“To think,” you said simply, not looking him in the eye.
Bucky exhaled sharply, stepping forward, crowding you.
“If something’s wrong, just tell me. We’ve got to communicate.”
You swallowed, finally meeting his blue, blue eyes.
“I just need to figure some things out first.”
His frustration emanated from him for a minute, and then, suddenly, he reached for you, pulling you against him. You melted against his hard body, like always.
“Do you want to go to Connecticut? Right now?… Because if so…”
His voice was softer now, his fingers carding through your curls. But what he said made you panic.
“No! It’s not that, Bucky…”
“If you’re doubting us….”
His voice was plaintive now and your breath caught as his scent and his warmth surrounded you. You wanted to fall into him, to let him chase away every uncertainty.
But you needed to stand on your own two feet.
“I just need space,” you whispered, even as your hands reached up and clasped around his neck, unwilling to let go.
Bucky’s forehead rested against yours.
“You say that, but I can tell that you don’t want to leave,” he murmured, his lips brushing against your temple.
Your heart thundered.
“Bucky. I need to. Please.”
His grip tightened for just a moment before he released you, stepping back.
“Then go,” he said, voice emotional.
He turned and walked out of the door, giving you a wide berth as you finished packing.
You cried as Nico drove you to your brownstone, and went straight to bed when you got there. You were emotionally exhausted.
—-
Bucky sat in his living room, spiraling, not knowing what to think.
Bucky agreed to you leaving, because what else could he do?
It didn’t make sense. The day before had been so much fun. You’d had great sex, and you looked amazing for the gala. Then there was the happy surprise about Steve and Peach.
He knew that you were over the moon for those two, but something was going on.
Had he taken too much time to propose?
But you’d only been together for a little over three months. He couldn’t help that Steve and Peach were crazy people who did crazy things.
Bucky was surer than sure that he and you belonged together.
Now you just needed to come to the same realization.
And he wasn’t going to force you.
—--
You stayed inside the entire next day, Sunday, feeling lethargic. Normally you’d be brunching or cooking with Bucky, relaxing and doing something fun.
You missed him and wondered why you weren’t with him.
At that moment, your phone rang. It was Bucky.
“Hey,” you said softly, tucking a knee up to your chest as you curled up on the couch.
“Hey,” he echoed. Damn, his voice did things to you.
“How are you?”
A lump formed in your throat at the longing in his voice.
“I’m okay...”
Silence.
Then he asked, “Are you eating?” You blinked, surprised.
“What?”
“You get caught up in your head when you’re stressed,” he said, his voice quiet. “I don’t want you forgetting to take care of yourself.”
Damn you loved this man. He knew you so well.
“I’m fine, Bucky.”
“I sent something over.”
Before you could respond, there was a knock at your door. You opened it to find Nico with a delivery bag, the scent of thai food in the air. Your chest tightened as you looked up at Nico.
“Bucky...” you whispered into the phone.
“You don’t have to say anything,” he murmured. “Just eat. And call me anytime. I love you, Frumoasă. I miss you. I’ll see you on Friday.”
He hung up and tears slipped down your cheeks as you took the food from Nico. You gave him a hug and said goodbye and then held the warm container in your hands behind a closed door.
One thing was for sure, James Buchanan Barnes still knew exactly how to love you, even when you were running from him.
—-
The next few days were busy. You had to tie up year end things at the Center to prepare for the three week holiday shut down. You threw yourself into it and tried not to miss Bucky too much even though you two shared brief check-ins.
But your thoughts were scattered, your headache wouldn’t go away, and your stomach was unsettled. Plus, your emotions were on a rollercoaster.
You made a doctor’s appointment for Thursday. You didn’t want to bring a bug to the cabin to spread to everyone.
On Wednesday you got a visit from an old friend.
Around noon, you turned around to a different version of blue-eyed and tall, dark, and handsome.
“Terry!”
Your last ex-boyfriend was standing in your place of work.
“Hey girl. You looking good.”
You flushed at that smile and the way he eyed you was reminiscent of times gone by. And that voice. That was a thing once upon a time.
“Terry, What are you doing here?”
He sucked his teeth and shook his head at you.
“I can’t get a hug?”
You swatted at his arm and obliged, as Nico pulled out his phone to call Bucky outside.
—--
As soon as you walked in your door that afternoon your phone rang.
“Is that why you’re pulling away from me? You have another man?”
You pulled back and stared at your phone. Then you realized. Fucking Nico.
“Bucky, what the hell–”
Bucky interrupted you.
“I had to know you were safe, and then I’m told that you had a date with this guy Richmond.I wavered between coming to kill him immediately and letting you make your choice and tell me yourself, but I couldn’t wait.”
“Bucky…”
“Just tell me the truth, Y/N!”
“You gonna let me talk?”
Bucky was silent.
“The truth is I had lunch with an ex who also was a good friend to talk about his upcoming wedding.”
There was silence on the line. Bucky cleared his throat.
“Oh.”
“Yeah. ‘Oh.’”
You sucked your teeth.
“Anything else you wanna know, James?”
“Frumoasa, I’m sorry, I–”
“Don’t Bucky. I’ll see you in a couple of days. Bye.”
You hung up and cried, yet again.
You didn’t know what was happening.
—---
The next day, you sat on the crinkly paper in your Doctor Phillips’ office in complete shock.
She reached out and shut your mouth for you because it was hanging open.
“But….I’m on birth control.”
You looked at her as if she had three heads. She smiled indulgently at you.
“You know that’s not 100%. Have you had unprotected sex with anyone?”
You giggled, thinking just how much unprotected sex you’d had with Bucky. Then you started crying. She handed you a tissue, used to emotions with things like this.
It all made sense now.
The nausea you’d brushed off, the exhaustion, the moods, the uncertainty, the fear knotting in your stomach. You should have known.
It wasn’t just about you and Bucky.
It was about this.
A baby.
“Well, speaking of sex, I have a kind of... A delicate question.”
When you asked, you’d managed to shock doctor Phillips, but she soon recovered.
—-
Your mother was silent for a long time before whispering, “Oh, sweetheart...”
“Please don’t tell Peach,” you added quickly. “I don’t want to interrupt her honeymoon.”
You also knew that she would tell Steve and he would tell…
“Bucky doesn’t know yet.”
Another long pause.
“What are you going to do? Are you going to tell him?”
You swallowed.
“I don’t know how. We argued the last time we spoke. And I don’t want him to marry me just because I’m pregnant.”
“Honey, he’s gonna marry you no matter what. And you’re never going to get away from that man now that you’re carrying his child.”
You chewed your lip, still unsure.
“You think so, Ma?”
“Baby, I know so.”
As you spoke, you received pics of Steve and Peach looking deliriously happy in Vermont, glowing with happiness. They’d sent it to both of you. You cried on the phone with your mother and came to a decision.
When you hung up, you started packing.
—--
On Friday afternoon, you landed in Stowe and Nico was there to pick you up.
You were glad to see him despite the drama with Terry. The 30 minute drive was quiet and serene, beautiful on snow plowed roads.
When the chalet came into view, you gasped.
It was picture-perfect, nestled deep in the Vermont mountains, blanketed in fresh snow. Twinkling lights lined the porch railings and they made Bucky, who was standing on the front porch waiting for you, look mysterious.
It was idyllic.
As you exited the SUV, Bucky came down and extended his hand to help you up the snow covered stairs. You looked up at him and he was staring at you with those ice blue eyes.
—-
You stood there, looking up at him, and and Bucky thought, fuck, she’s gorgeous. It was like he was seeing you for the first time again. His eyes traced the thick curves that made his blood run hot, and those eyes that are wide and still uncertain made him a little weak.
He couldn't tear his eyes away from you and it felt like the air had been knocked out of his lungs.
He didn’t know why you ran from him earlier in the week, but damn, he was certain that he would run through any wall for you.
Bucky bit his lip and his hands instinctively balled into fists as he took you in.
Your sweater accented your full breasts and he swore he saw the thick, stiff peaks of your nipples through it, making him thirsty. Your jeans molded thick thighs and wide hips that make his cock throb.
There was something about you today that made him want to take you down, but he was going to follow your lead. He needed to see where your head was at.
—
Bucky’s breath made vapors in the cold air and his eyes locked onto yours as he grabbed you, pulling you into his arms.
“You came back to me,” he murmured against your hair, his voice rough. “I’m sorry about the other day, Frumoasă. I’ve been crazy since you left.”
You pressed your face to his chest, a lump forming in your throat.
“Yeah, that was crazy, but I get it, Bucky.”
You pulled back and looked up into his eyes.
“I had to come. I love you, Bucky Barnes.”
His hands cupped your face, his lips brushing yours, slow and searching.
“Then don’t leave me. Ever again, Frumoasă.”
You nodded and clung to him, sniffling.
He pulled back and looked down at you.
“Let’s get you out of this cold.”
Inside, the scent of pine and cinnamon filled the air, and the chalet was decorated for the holidays with a huge tree with a massive stone fireplace. The view in the waning afternoon sunlight was of the mountains, and it was gorgeous.
“Wow, Bucky.”
He was taking your coat as you took in the sights. Of course the place was top notch.
“Where are the happy couple?”
Bucky chuckled.
“Their chalet is down the road. Rebirth owns this property and there are three other chalets just like this.”
You thought you were used to how rich Bucky was, but this rocked you. This was quite a world you might be committing to.
“Yeah, they need privacy. Probably fucking each other on every available surface.”
Bucky laughed. And then raised his eyebrow at you, eyes dark.
“It seems the thing to do.”
You grew warm and cleared your throat as he licked his lips.
“Where is my room?”
Bucky gave you an ominous look and moved closer.
“Oh, we have more than enough rooms for everyone, Frumoasă. But I’m not spending one more night away from you.”
Your body reacted despite you, causing you to stutter.
“B-but my mother–”
“--Almost insisted on it when I spoke to her earlier this week. She told me she spoke to you the other day. They are only here for one night, it will be fine.”
You followed him into the master suite, your wheels turning.
“What all did Karen have to say?”
Did Bucky know? He couldn’t know. Your mom wouldn’t do that.
“She just told me you’ve always had a habit of pushing people away when you feel like you’re losing control.”
You sighed in relief. She hadn’t told him.
“I wasn’t trying to go behind your back,” he murmured. “I’m just trying to understand. Because I love you. And I want to fix it.”
You sighed and relaxed a little. Bucky still wanted you. You took his hand.
“Nothing is broken, Bucky. I’m sorry I ran from you. I was questioning myself. Not you.”
“Okay.”
But he looked uncertain. Could you have decided that you didn’t need him after all? That you didn’t want him?
You started to walk away to find the bedroom and Bucky pulled you back to him by catching one of your hands. He pressed himself against you and looked down into your eyes.
“Frumoasă,” he said, his voice almost pleading.
“Tell me you still want us.”
“I still want us. I need us, Bucky. You’re right. I was feeling out of control, but yesterday I realized that what may be coming for us is some beautiful chaos. And if you’ll help me, I’m ready for it.”
You looked into his beautiful eyes, and then your fingers pulled on his sweater and your lips met his.
The kiss was almost brand new, the tension between you arcing like electricity. He kissed you back with everything he had, his hands roaming all over your body.
It was heated. It was urgent as a motherfucker.
And it was everything you two hadn’t been able to say.
“Later, we will talk about control.”
Bucky ran his thumb over your lips as he looked like he had delicious sensual plans for you later. He let you go just as your panties got ruined.
—--
That afternoon, your mother and Ray arrived just after Steve and Peach came over to make pizzas in the custom pizza oven for dinner. After that, you all decorated the Christmas tree around the fireplace.
It was picture perfect, with you and Peach drooling over Bucky and Steve in their fair isle sweaters. You had a lot of fun, and you drank water all night long. You caught up with Peach, warm in the glow of the love of everyone most important to you.
Bucky watched you, curious about what was different about you, but didn’t say anything.
By the time the night was over, you crashed, sleep overtaking you almost before your head hit the pillow. Bucky didn’t complain, he just held you close, thankful that you were back in his arms.
On Christmas Eve morning, some ventured out to ski and snowboard. You pleaded a headache and Bucky didn’t question you, but he filed that away for later. You and your mom stayed inside as you warned everyone else to be careful. You shook your head at Peach’s daredevil antics, but Peach was gonna Peach.
Nico was celebrating the holidays in another chalet with his family and had the week off.
You and your mom talked about a lot. And a lightbulb went off in your head. Your mom was teary and you were amazed that it took over 30 years for you both to realize. But it was going to be okay.
That night snow blanketed the trees outside, and the fireplace crackled as everyone gathered around the fireplace after dinner. Bucky stayed close, touching you almost always, even if it was just his hand on yours. The proximity to him was what you needed, and you wanted to just burrow yourself in his chest. But you had to tell him.
Steve and Peach were in their own world, stealing kisses by the fireplace, by the tree, lost in their honeymoon bliss. You watched them, their happiness so effortless, so light, and you knew that you could be there too, with Bucky.
Every time his hand brushed against yours, you felt the pull. Every time he looked at you like you were his whole world, you wanted to close the distance.
For the first time in days, you felt like maybe you were exactly where you needed to be.
After Christmas Eve brunch, you curled up with your hot cocoa and a book by the window by which Bucky and Steve built a snowman earlier.
Peach wouldn’t let you live your life in peace, because she insisted on recounting the time you two got into a fight over homework when you were eleven. Your mother was joining in, supplying details to Ray and Steve and to Bucky, who was paying attention, stealing glances at you and absentmindedly fiddling with his phone.
“And then she says, ‘How dare you ask me if I need help, I don’t need your help—’”
A loud CRACK interrupted Peach’s story, and a resounding thunk echoed from the eaves of the cabin.
Everyone jumped, looking toward the porch as a massive icicle snapped from the roof, crashing into the snow.
“Whoa,” Peach said, blinking. “That thing could’ve killed someone.”
You looked at Bucky. And he looked pleased with himself. You were instantly suspicious.
“Oh, wow,” he said, standing up and walking toward the door.
“That’s crazy. Totally random.”
Steve scoffed and Peach shot him a look. They knew something.
“Bucky…”
He ignored you, opening the door and crouching down in the snow, picking up the icicle like it was some priceless artifact.
He brought it inside and placed it, dripping wet on the table. Everyone gathered around to see that there was something inside that looked like a lump of coal.
Bucky looked at you gaping at it, and then: he broke it in half.
You gasped. Because inside, tucked into the hollowed-out core, was a small black velvet box. Your stomach dropped.
“Oh my God,” you whispered.
Bucky turned to you, his eyes soft, full of something so deep and certain that it stole the air from your lungs. Your entire body went still. And it was just you and Bucky.
His warm smile and the way the love in his eyes as he popped the box open to reveal a breathtaking and huge emerald cut diamond ring that looked like a block of ice and sparkled like the snow.
Everybody went silent.
Bucky exhaled, then spoke, his voice steady but thick.
“For years, I thought I had everything I needed,” he said, the words warm despite the crisp night outside.
“But then you came along. And suddenly, nothing felt full unless you were in it. Not my house, not my days, not my arms.”
Everyone leaned in, watching and waiting.
Bucky took a deep breath, then, finally, sank to one knee.
Your heart stopped.
“You are… “ Bucky stopped, choked up. “…The love of my life,” he said, pulling out the ring and looking up at you with that devastating certainty.
“And I want forever with you.”
You let out a choked laugh, “You hid my ring in an icicle?,” you whispered.
Bucky grinned up at you. “Damn right I did.”
“Y/N/L/N, Will you marry me?”
A half-laugh, half-sob escaped you. And then, without thinking, you threw yourself at him, knocking you both back onto the floor.
“YES!” you shouted, kissing him senseless as the entire family erupted into cheers.
“That was the most ridiculous, perfect Christmas proposal ever!” Peach was full on sobbing with joy as she said it.
Steve clapped Bucky on the back and gave him a hug as he helped him up.
You and Peach and your mom were cooing over the ring as the men watched.
“You better take care of that little girl, James. She’s special.”
Bucky looked at him, emotional.
“Yes, Sir. That’s my mission in life.”
——
After Bucky and Steve drove your parents to the airport to be in Brooklyn for Ray’s grandkids’ Christmas morning, you and Peach had a good long talk about everything but the baby. You had to tell Bucky next.
But you did tell her about your other realization.
“I always knew you thought differently. It is just so cool the way you can see things from different angles. But yeah, you don’t do surprises well.”
“It just feels so freeing to finally be able to name what I was feeling sometimes. Being labeled as gifted didn’t help anyone from noticing that my mind probably is atypical.”
“Girl, none of us is typical, but yeah. Being labeled as gifted sucked sometimes. But sometimes it’s kinda hot. Tell me about your praise kink and I’ll tell you about mine.”
Peach grinned at you as you laughed. Bucky and Steve walked in right at that moment.
“Oh shit, Steve. Seems like we came back just in time.”
You shook your head as Bucky came and sat on the couch between you two and reached into the bowl of popcorn you’d been sharing. Steve just reached for Peach and she floated up into his arms.
“On second thought I think I’ll let Steve tell me about it in our chalet. Oh!”
Peach was up and over Steve’s shoulder as he hauled her out of the door. You giggled and waved at her as she swatted his ass with one hand and waved back at you.
Bucky was looking at you with a scorching hot gaze, and you leaned over to kiss him, licking the butter off of his lips.
“What were we saying about a praise kink, my beautiful good girl?”
You shivered and bit your lip, but scooted away from him on the sofa. You couldn’t be distracted.
“Can we talk about that later? I’ve got something to tell you.”
Bucky’s stomach dropped, then did somersaults. Had you been too embarrassed to tell him no earlier? Were you going to dump him? He nodded and took your hand, twisting the huge rock on your finger. He was unable to form coherent words, he was so worried.
“Bucky��I’m pregnant.”
The words hit him like a punch to the gut. He pulled back slightly, mind spinning as the room seemed to shift around him.
Pregnant. Buck stared at you, unable to process.
“I didn’t know until yesterday,” you whispered, your eyes filled with emotion.
“It explains a lot about what I’ve been feeling. And I didn’t know how to tell you.”
Bucky dreamed of getting you pregnant, but this was a detour from his plans. And he knew how you felt about surprises.
“My sweet, sweet angel Frumoasă. I’m sorry I didn’t realize…”
Bucky took your hand again and pulled you toward him so that you rested in his arms. He kissed you on the top of your head. He knew one thing: it was you and he and your family for the rest of his life. He wasn’t going anywhere.
“You okay with this? I know this wasn’t in your plans–”
He cupped your face, his thumb brushing across your cheek. And he smiled. That’s when you knew everything would be alright.
“Okay? I’m over the moon, Baby. I love you. Nothing changes that. We’re starting something new. A family. And I’ll be by your side for every step.”
He looked into your eyes and saw relief, but anxiety was still there.
“Whatever comes next, we’ll face it together. And this time, I’m not going to let you go anywhere.”
“Are you sure?” you were breathless at his certainty.
He leaned in, kissing you softly but passionately.
“I’m sure,” He whispered against your lips. “I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life.”
“There’s something else, Bucky…”
You told him your suspicions and Bucky was unmoved.
“I wouldn’t be surprised. But you have a beautiful mind, Love. I told you that I love the way you think the first time I met you.”
The way Bucky beamed at you with acceptance was so fucky sexy. You need him inside you like your next breath. Your kiss told him that.
“I see.”
Bucky stood up, you in his arms.
“Let’s go to bed.”
He walked into the beautiful bedroom with the huge picture window looking out onto the winter night. There was lots of moonlight reflected into the room from the snow, even with the lights off.
He laid you on the bed and you rolled away from him, reaching for your phone on the nightstand. He gave you an incredulous look as you fiddled with it.
“What are you doing?”
You bit your lip, a little bit afraid. God you needed that feeling. To turn your brain off.
“I asked Dr. Phillips a few specific questions about sex during pregnancy.”
Bucky stared at you.
“About rougher sex…” You gulped as he raised his eyebrow. “I forwarded an article.”
Bucky walked around the bed and took his phone in hand, glancing at it, and then at you, a smirk on his face. You scrambled backward and scurried into the bathroom.
“Gonna take a shower, be right back.”
You tried to turn your brain off as you went under the hot water jets. But what you truly needed was in the next room.
You came back in and Bucky was standing by the bed, in just his jeans, shirtless. The fire was roaring and he looked cold. You shuddered as he pointed to the furry rug by the bed.
You obeyed, shedding your robe and kneeling, eyes cast down. You saw his bare feet come to stand in front of you.
“You are trying to control things again, Frumoasă, sending me an article about BDSM during pregnancy. You need to learn that there are times that I’m in control in the bedroom. And I decide what happens and when.”
He reached down and tipped your chin up, looking at you with narrowed steel blue eyes.
“Now, I will teach you that lesson so that you should remember it. And although this room is sound proofed, and we are alone in this house, you need to keep quiet.”
You just stared at him, mind going almost completely blank.
He tapped you on your jaw lightly.
“Do you understand?”
“Yes, Daddy.”
Bucky smiled at that, but then the sunshine went away. His smile dropped.
“And you don’t cum until I tell you to.”
Holy fuck.
“Yes, Daddy.”
Bucky’s eyes shuttered at your hoarse tone, but he stayed strong. His hands went for his zipper and you wiggled, your wetness seeping down your naked thighs. He smacked you in the face with his cock and you suppressed a giggle.
“Stay still.”
You looked up at him, eyes twinkling now.
“Yes, Daddy.”
“Now be a good girl and open your mouth. Let me see that throat.”
You do as you’re told, opening wide and saying, ‘ahhhhh.’
Bucky stroked himself right there in front of you as you drooled for him.
“That’s a sweet little slut. Suck me just a little bit, baby. That mouth last week was heaven.”
He rubbed the tip of his flared head along your lips and then groaned as those lips closed around him. You sucked it like it’s the best lollipop you’d ever had.
“Fuck!”
His voice was deeper now, and it made you even wetter.
Your eyes fluttered closed and you hummed around his cock because you were in heaven. There was just this.
Just now.
You tried to take him deeper, but he didn’t let you, dragging you up gently by your arm. You stood as he sat on the edge of the bed, and then reached for you, gracefully depositing you across his lap due to his strength. Your breasts just happened to end up atop his hard cock as his large hand caressed your ass.
“You deserve a spanking for leaving me, Frumoasa. Three on each side. Count. And that is the only sound I should hear.”
You were disappointed at so few, but you knew he was going easy on you. Yet you didn’t try to push him. Not tonight.
Bucky spanked you hard, three times on each cheek, and you counted dutifully, your voice growing more ragged with each crack on your ass.
“Goood fucking girl. You took those so well.”
He reached down into your wetness with two as you squirmed on his lap because of his teasing. You wanted him inside you so bad.
“Fuck, you’re soooo wet.”
His voice was full of lust and you felt his cock pulse pre cum onto your nipples. You pussy was clenching and pulsing like crazy.
Bucky smeared your juices up and around your anus, careful not to penetrate, but driving you mad as the rough pad of his fingers played outside. You wantonly tried to push back on him, but he didn’t let you.
Bucky tsked.
“Remember, you are not in control right now. I am. That is what you need, my Love.”
His words hit you like a mack truck and your orgasm came without warning, crashing over you as your sensitive cunt clenched down around nothing.
“Damn, Frumoasă,” You could hear the smile in his voice. “I barely touched you. But I told you to ask permission. You’ll answer for that later.”
You shivered as Bucky shifted, picking you up and depositing you on your back, spreading your legs and looking at your glistening center. A thin web of his precum connected his cock to your tis, and he took himself in one hand as he smeared his fluid around your nipples.
You shuddered and bit back a moan. You were so sensitive.
His eyes were glued to your wet center as you watched his hand almost blur on his cock. You arched your back.
He tilted his head as that tongue snaked out against his lips.
“…Are you…?” His eyes slid down your body and back up to your eyes.
“Cum for me again, Frumoasă.”
You did are you were told, arching as he rubbed your nipples and twisted them gently.
“Damn. So responsive. For me. So good.”
He was climbing on the bed, kneeling between your open legs now. Then he was on top of you, kissing you, his tongue twining with yours as his cock rubbed against your cunt. Finally, he plunged inside you.
“Yesssss,” you hissed. Every thrust made you writhe beneath him. Bucky’s cock was perfect, filling you just right.
Your eyes sought his.
“Can I make noise now?”
Bucky covered your mouth in another deep kiss.
“Yes, Frumoasă. Let me hear you.”
His hands slid down to cup your ass, holding you close as he increased his pace.
“Tighter,” you whimpered. “Harder.”
“All for you,” Bucky promised. Your pussy fluttered around him.
“Don’t let me go,” you pleaded.
“Never,” Bucky soothed, stroking your thighs. “I’ll never let you go.”
You writhed as he held you down firmly, driving faster.
“Bucky!”
You grew more frantic beneath him, and he lengthened his strokes, anchoring your arms to the pillow. His cock throbbed inside you, causing you to cry out.
He leaned down and blew on your nipples and you keened, then he captured your lips, and you kissed him back like you were starving.
“I’ve got you,” he whispered. “You deserve everything I give you. I’m going to tell you again and again how good you are.”
You squirmed, thrashing beneath him, and his grip tightened on your wrists.
“You’re my favorite girl. You’re beautiful and perfect. You’re so good that I’m going to give you all my cum.”
“Say it again,” you begged.
“My good, good girl,” he whispered
“I’m going to come inside you, because that’s where I belong. We’re going to make lots of beautiful babies, Frumoasă. Now cum around my cock.”
You let out a wail. Your mind went blank as Bucky thrust deep inside you, pouring all his cum into you.
All you could see and feel was him.
Finally, he pulled out, looking utterly dazed, and kissed you on the forehead.
“I fucking love you, Bucky.”
His arms came up around you.
“I love you too. I love everything about you. You’re going to make a wonderful mother.” You were sated, excited and calm now.
“We should tell Peach and Steve.”
“Later,” you said at the same time, and burst out laughing.
“But let’s not wait too long,” you said.
“Tomorrow,” Bucky murmured.
“After I make you breakfast?”
He kissed you on the nose.
“Yes, that’s perfect. Daddy.”
You climbed on top of him, resting your head on his chest. He stroked your back as you felt his cock perk up again.
“Daddy…”
You sat up on him, rolling your hips. Bucky looked at you, his eyes on your swaying, and yes bigger breasts.
“You’re gonna be the death of me…”
You moved to get off of him.
“You’re right, you can’t have a heart attack now, we’ve got a child to think of.”
Bucky grabbed you and hauled your leg over his so that you were straddling him again. His grin was wide.
“Get that ass back here…”
It was almost Christmas morning, and you had every gift you wanted, right there in that bed.

Thoughts that go "Bump" in the night...
After which I lie awake, staring at the ceiling, knowing that getting up to check a reference book will easily resolve the problem.
Except...
It's four o'clock in the morning.
I'm nice and warm and pretty drowsy.
By the time I decide to get up I'll be asleep again.
By morning I'll have forgotten the thought that woke me up.
Though not always.
For instance...
*****
A boat can fit onto a ship, but a ship can't fit onto a boat.
Submarines are known as boats not ships, but they're outliers since in normal circumstances neither boats nor ships are meant to sink, and the ones which do seldom or never come back up again. Submarines, on the other hand, can submerge and rise at will.
Though not always, as in the memorably daft K-Class, which was steam-powered, meaning with boilers needing air intakes and funnels to let the smoke out. As one wag said: "Too Many Holes!"

The boilers had to be shut down and the funnels folded away every time the boat submerged, a procedure which could take almost 30 minutes.

An emergency "crash dive" might happen a lot faster but if, during all that haste, someone forgot to close just one of the too-many holes, things could go very wrong very fast and a crash dive could be just a crash.
Or indeed a crush, because these subs were so long that it was possible for the bow to reach hull-failure depth while the stern was still on the surface. Not much fun.
As another wag put it:
"I say, No. 1, my end is diving, what's your end doing?"
*****
The knightly honorific "Sir" and "Dame" isn't an upgraded version of Mr, Mrs or Ms. The honour is granted to one person, not to their family, so it goes with that person's own name not the family one.


Thus It's not "Sir McKellan", "Sir Pratchett", or "Sir Stewart" but Sir Ian, Sir Terry and Sir Patrick.
It's not "Dame Andrews", "Dame Dench" or "Dame Mirren" but Dame Julie, Dame Judi and Dame Helen.
Incidentally, the wife of a Knight adds the title "Lady" to her surname, but the husband of a Dame adds nothing to his.
*****
When writing abbreviations is it Dot or Not?
In British usage there's (or used to be) no dot if the abbreviation ends with the same letter as the full word.
For exampe Colonel / Doctor / Mister / Mistress (Missus) abbreviate to Col / Dr / Mr / Mrs without a dot, but Captain / Professor / Reverend abbreviate to Capt. / Prof. / Rev. with a dot.
Some style guides said British Broadcasting Corporation / BBC, United Kingdom / UK, Royal Air Force / RAF etc. should not only have dots but also a space after each - B. B. C. / U. K. / R. A. F. and so on.
First the spaces went away, then the dots went away, until now it's BBC, UK, RAF, which may be less pedantically accurate but also more tidy.
A bit less like someone's been eating a poppy-seed roll...

A lot of this stuff can appear in a Style Guide, but there are times when an Out-Of-Style guide would be more useful.
*****
Now, back to sleep...

"I told you, I never made the world," said Om. "Why should I make the world? It was here already. And if I did make a world, I wouldn't make it a ball. People'd fall off. All the sea'd run off the bottom."
"Not if you told it to stay on."
"Hah! Will you hark at the man!"
"Besides, the sphere is a perfect shape," said Brutha. "Because in the Book of--"
"Nothing amazing about a sphere," said the tortoise. "Come to that, a turtle is a perfect shape."
"A perfect shape for what?"
"Well, the perfect shape for a turtle, to start with," said Om. "If it was shaped like a ball, it'd be bobbing to the surface the whole time."
"But it's a heresy to say the world is flat," said Brutha.
"Maybe, but it's true."
