[Coming when I get ideas]

[musette22]

oooh Minnie....you know those fics out here that have the characters watching the future and things like that (where they watch their own movies or read the books and react? ) I was wondering if ever Steve and Bucky were to watch their movies (maybe an avengers watch the movies type situation) and they get progressively more confused as Endgame goes on because why would Steve ever leave Bucky? Or maybe they're watching CATFA and during the bar scene Steve watches the scene and realises that Bucky might have been in love with him. And the avengers pause the movie for Steve and Bucky to have a conversation because Steve sees the look on Bucky's face when Peggy arrives.

Oh and Steve reacting to the bank vault torture scene in WS as well as the in CW ....ooh the possibilities.

I'm sorry if I didn't explain myself very well.

Hello my darling! I'm sorry it's taken me a while to reply to this lovely message, it's been a very busy few days! But aaahhh, this is such a beautiful idea, especially the second one you mentioned 🥺 I can just imagine the Avengers, post-TWS, watching the new Captain America movie that's been made about Steve's life (featuring a pair of certain very handsome Hollywood heartthrobs...). And Steve is ready to hate it, as he's hated all the other movies about him he's seen, but he finds that he actually quite enjoys it, more than he thought he would - until they get to the scene in the bar you describe, and Steve huffs out an awkward laugh and says, "Okay, I'll admit this one is pretty good so far, but come on... I don't understand why they've made it look like Buck was jealous or something. Why would they do that? That's not how it was at all, right Buck?"

But Bucky doesn't say anything, eyes remaining glued to the screen and refusing to meet Steve's gaze. The rest of the Avengers are pretending not to be watching what's unfolding between them (except for Clint, who's openly staring at them while munching on popcorn), but the room is collectively holding its breath.

"Bucky?" Steve repeats, willing Bucky to look at him. "You were just teasing, right? You weren't actually jealous." He pauses, feeling wrongfooted somehow. "Were you?"

Bucky swallows audibly, meeting Steve's eyes for a fleeting moment before looking away again. "'Course not."

"You liked Peggy," Steve insists. "You- you were happy for me. Right? Buck?"

Bucky gives a jerky nod. "Sure, Steve."

Steve feels suddenly like he's missed a step on the stairs. "Bucky, what's- I don't understand, why-?"

With a deep, heartfelt sigh, Bucky's shoulders sag, and he finally looks up - and the look on his face makes Steve’s heart go into freefall.

"Steve..." Bucky shakes his head slowly. "Of course I was happy for you. Doesn't mean I didn't also want to yell and rage at her, for coming between us the way she did. For being what you wanted, what you deserved. For taking you from me. Even if you were never really mine."

And once Steve has recovered from the shock, once his heart has started beating and he's found his voice again, he finally, finally finds the courage to admit what he's been keeping a secret for all those years - that he's loved Bucky from the moment he met him and wanted him from the minute he was old enough to know what wanting someone meant, and that if he'd only known, there wouldn't have have been any question about it: he’d have chosen Bucky over Peggy in a heartbeat, in every single way, over and over again.

And as they fall into each other's arms, teary-eyed but happier than they've ever been, the other Avengers wipe away stray tears, sneakily hand each other cash.

Aaahhh I love this, nonnie 🥹🥹 And you're right, the possibilities *are* endless!! So many other amazing scenarios to think about with this particular trope! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us, honey! ❤️😘

Recipe for Love- Chapter 3

Pairing: Steve Rogers x OFC (Joanna MacDonald)

Warnings: Mild alcohol consumption

Authors Note: This chapter and the next one are relatively short but I didn't want to put them together.

Section Dividers by @firefly-graphics

Recipe for Love Masterlist | Main Masterlist

Jo’s boxes had been brought up during the meeting in the conference room and she started unpacking her clothes, toiletries, and then books. When she finally felt like she was settled in, she looked at the clock and saw that it was six. She took a quick shower, in which she regretted not giving herself more time. The shower was amazing and she had to drag herself out of it. She walked into the closet and realized she had no idea what to wear to dinner. Was this a fancy event? Casual? Somewhere in between. She decided to try to find some happy middle ground and settled on a dark green long sleeve dress that came to just below her knees. It could be fancy or casual. She paired it with a pair of simple flats and put her hair into a simple bun. She gave herself one final look before deciding that it was good enough and making her way to the dining room a few minutes before seven.

Tony was behind the bar off to the side and motioned for her to come over. “What can I make ya, Doc?” 

She smiled at his nickname and silently remarked that he sounded like Bugs Bunny when he said it. “I’ll take a gin fizz, if that’s okay.”

“Of course, I like a girl that knows what she wants.” While Tony ws making her drink, she looked out over the group of people who had already gathered. They seemed like such a varied group. Some loud and boisterous, others quiet and reserved. But this was a good thing. Every family has members that are different. She just needed to get them to come together outside of the battlefield or the training room. Tony handed her her drink and she thanked him. He had had Shawarma brought in from a place in the city. Some of the group chuckled at this and Jo figured it must be some sort of inside joke between certain team members. They all sat down and it was then that Jo noticed that Captain Rogers wasn’t with the group. He walked in late and quickly made his way to sit by Bucky. She set him a friendly smile as he sat down but he just narrowed his eyes in judgment before turning to talk to Sam. She wasn’t sure what that had been about but it made her slightly uneasy. She hadn’t even had a conversation with the Captain and couldn’t imagine that she had done anything to upset him. Maybe he was just wary of strangers. Hopefully that wouldn’t last long. She quickly tried to shake it off and enjoy the conversation happening around her. As the dinner ended, she spoke up to the group and said that she would be starting in the morning with breakfast ready at 8 and any and all were welcome to join. She also said she was going to attempt to get 10 minutes with each of them over the next few days. Steve listened to her with distrust and quickly left the table and headed back to his room. He wasn’t sure how he was going to handle her being here, but he was determined to get rid of her before she used them as lab rats and as stepping stones to her goals. 

The next morning, Jo found her way down to the kitchen. She started working on a large batch of scrambled eggs and bacon, deciding that a simple breakfast is best for her first morning. She also made up a slew of toast and set the table with every jam, jelly, butter, and spread she can find. She was worried that no one would join her but she was pleasantly surprised when Wanda and Vision walked in, shortly followed by Natasha and then Bruce, his attention turned firmly to the tablet in his hand. They all said their good mornings and settled down to eat. TOny and Pepper came in a few minutes later, playfully bickering away about something and cheerfully bid the group good morning. 

Conversation flowed between the group easily, particularly between the women of the group. Natasha and Wanda were planning to take Jo out this weekend to get to know each other better. Jo was grateful to the women for reaching out and being so welcoming to her. She was nervous being the new person in the group, but both Nat and Wanda had been new and alone at one point and they knew how nerve wracking it could be. They were going to do their best to make her feel at home as quickly as possible.

“I had hoped to talk to Captain Rogers this morning.” Jo said dejectedly. 

Natasha responded to her. “Oh, him, Sam, and Bucky run in the mornings, rain or shine. They should be in in a bit.” 

And she was right. A few minutes later, Sam and Bucky walked into the dining room, sweaty but with smiles on their faces, greeting everyone and settling down to eat. Steve followed behind them with a smile on his face, but that smile quickly disappeared the moment he saw Jo sitting at the table having a conversation with Wanda and Natasha. Sheve knew that Natasha, more than almost anyone else, could take care of herself, but he had always felt responsible and protective of Wanda, even if she was a grown woman now. She had been so young and broken when she had joined them, after having lost her brother. He had adopted her as the sister he never had and seeing her talking to Jo made him uncomfortable. He didn’t want her analyzing her. He went to sit across from Natasha and next to Wanda.

“Wanda, I have you scheduled for sparring this morning against Nat. You need to be working on surprise attacking, both offensively and defensively.” Steve had interrupted the conversation that Wanda, Natasha, and Jo had been having. He wasn’t listening to what they were saying. He didn’t particularly care what they talked about, he didn’t want them talking at all.

“Oh… Sure Steve, no problem.” Wanda had responded to him while giving him an odd look. He was very rarely that rude to someone. He might be straight to the point a lot of times, but he almost never intentionally interrupted someone's conversation. He was just too polite for that.

Steve sat sullenly, eating his eggs and bacon, not acknowledging Jo or anyone else at the table. He just wanted to eat and be out of this situation. It wasn’t until he heard his name that he started paying attention. “What was that? He asked Natasha.

“Oh we were just saying that us girls are going out this weekend and thought some of the guys might want to join. I know it’s not really your scene, but it might be fun.”

Steve looked at the girls and saw Jo smiling friendly at him, he quickly looked away from her. “Yeah, that’s a no from me.” He started to get up from the table when he was stopped by Jo calling his name. “Captain Rogers.” When he didn’t respond to her, she stood up and followed him for a moment. “Captain Rogers.” He sighed and turned around.

“Sorry for bothering you, I know the team has a busy schedule, but I was wondering if I would be able to get some time with each member over the next few days. It would be a big help to me.” Steve breathed deeply, trying to control his annoyed response. “I guess I have no objection to you scheduling time with them as long as it doesn’t get in the way of their training. I can’t guarantee that they will want to speak to you though.” With this, Steve turned away and walked down the hall, heading to his room to take a shower and cool his head.

My media this week (27 Oct-2 Nov 2024)

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

😊 The Perils of Lady Catherine de Bourgh (Mr. Darcy & Miss Tilney #3) (Claudia Gray, author; Billie Fulford-Brown, narrator) - A really enjoyable cozy mystery in this austenverse. I did genuinely want to keep reading to find out the solution. However, I'm finding the will they/won't they/miscommunication/misunderstanding BS about Juliet & Jonathan's relationship is really starting to grate, even though the reasons for all the non/miscommunications are marginally reasonable & in character. But I was still quite annoyed with it, and I think I might be over this series for it. By the end at least J&J had talked and are on the same page about their feelings - now the obstacles are external at least, which gives me a bit more patience with it? probably my annoyance will be faded by the time the next one is published & I'll be happy to pick it up again.

😍 A Year in the Life of Sarge's Person (BlueSimplicity) - 189K, incredible post-WS recovery fic - loved how Bucky-focused this was (steve doesn't even appear until like 2/3 of the way thru the fic), loved his found family and of course I loved Sarge. Instant forever fave, stayed up until 2am reading which at my age is no small thing.

🙂 Specks of Silver (vanderloo) - 82K, lightly magical Suits fic- liked the 'small magic' style of this world

🥰 King & Queen (RELIC #3) (Maz Maddox, author; Kirt Graves, narrator) - dino shifters AND drag queens!!!! dino shifters AS drag queens! so much fun!

they keep hurting bucky. they made him grow his hair as if cutting it meant nothing, as if hair doesn't hold memories. they're making him act like ws again. supposedly he's healing, he's reclaiming it — except he did that in tfatws. let him rest. let him fight, even, but not as a 'bad guy', not doing someone else's dirty work, not being an asset again. what about white wolf? what about i didn't have a choice? what about sam? what about SAM? sam and his family and his boat. will they even show his family in his movie? will we see anything about sam's life? because they're making his only captain america movie, finally happening after six years of having been given the shield, into a red hulk movie. and they're already hurting isaiah instead of letting him rest like he so deeply deserves. why are they trying so hard to disprove they progress from the show? what about isaiah telling bucky you don't get to choose who you are? he was shown differently. now both of them are fighting someone's dirty fight again? what's next, gonna show us he was right that a black man can't be captain america? all the things sam did to prove himself, only to bring fucking ross into the picture again and have him comply? the guy steve, tony, rhodey — everyone, by the end — were ignoring and dismissing because outside his position of power, nobody gives a shit about what he's saying? the guy that fumbled the accords so bad but still became president? i guess i'll give them points for realism there. i understand going with the storyline from the comics, but it almost feels like they're using him, and using the actor, to promote the film and once again overshadow sam. overshadow his identity, his competence, his independence. the guy put him in prison... and now you make him work for him, you make him stand there and get told he's not steve rogers, and he just has to take it. for fuck's sake marvel let sam and bucky have stories that focus on them, that show their humanity and their struggles, that focus on their newfound friendship. instead, they're separated and we might not even get a mention of each other, when know they're more than capable of making three captain america movies that intertwine cap's struggles with his need to save bucky. now that bucky doesn't need saving, he can't be in the movies? bucky's always been haunting the narrative. and unlike steve, sam actually got a whole show with him and arguably more sceentime together. how are we now throwing away a whole tv show? and if they're purposely separating them because they both deserve their own projects (true), why are none of their movies really about either of them? i know they basically did it with wanda in mom, and with many characters in endgame, because they focused on the story they wanted to tell and not on respecting or continuing the story told in those characters' individual movies, to the point they were completely comfortable with breaking continuity, but with how frail the mcu has been and the scrutiny they're under, you'd think they'd treat some of their oldest and most cherished characters with a bit more love and respect. but nope. (i wanna be proven wrong. mcu prove me wrong, and i will apologise for doubting you. the bar is on the fucking floor though)

MY FAVES.

All that smut and all that angst

Give To Take- Whendoestheshipsail

 Before the war Steve and Bucky had a turbulent sexual relationship where Steve called the shots and Bucky tried to keep up and not feel like a monster. After Azzano and the serum they're both different and the things Steve once needed are easier to give.

Dropping his Shield- Whendoestheshipsail

Steve pursues the WS and is willing to do anything it takes to get his friend back. What it takes is sex. And an undercover cruise. And some kidnapping.

Without you is how I disappear- Awesomecherry

Bucky expects to find Steve waiting for him on the landing pad on the roof of the tower, because he knows someone would have thought to tell Steve he was coming home. He may have spent the whole flight dreaming about their reunion, imagining himself picking Steve up and slamming him against the nearest surface, their clothes magically falling off, swept away by a tide of passion, and then them scarring everyone in the tower by having sex right there and then.

What he gets is an empty apartment and the smell of rancid food flooding his nostrils.

The care & feeding of Steven G. Rogers- Greenbergsays

Bucky takes care of Steve.

Sugar-Sweet Steven- Sam_Haine

Steve's a soft boy who needs his Daddies to take care of him.

ALL THAT SMUT

As You Seep On In And Keep Me Down- thiccbuckybarnes

Bucky Barnes is a man of many names.

But first and foremost, he’s an ass man. He likes his guys small, able to be bent in half when he fucks them. He likes being bigger, being in control, likes crowding little twinks up and wrecking them so thoroughly they cry.

But he makes the wrong judgement when he first sees Steve in a bar; Steve’s all height, wide shoulders and muscle, clearly wouldn’t want the things that Bucky wants. It isn’t until he sees Steve shrink up from rejection, sees how pretty his cheeks look in an embarrassed flush, that he realizes that Steve is everything he wants.

It’s a good thing, too, when Steve gives him a second chance because if he hadn’t, Bucky would have missed out on the meal of his life.

Good boy- Fandomfluffandfuck

Bucky and Steve are new to each other but quickly discovering together how much Steve likes to be pushed (or pulled around) around in the bedroom.

Customer service- Fandomfluffandfuck

Steve has newly accepted and discovered his attraction to men and is tired of watching porn and imagining all of those experiences he's never had but is curious of.

So, he goes to an sex shop, not intenting to leave with anything but a couple of options for his... alone time but ending up with one of the employees in addition to a nondescript bag full of goodies.

Spread Me Open- Fandomfluffandfuck

Prior to Steve's current heat he told his alpha he could restrain him to keep him from squirming too much and to keep from accidentally hurting himself because he's very good at biting off more than he can chew- especially when Bucky's cock is what's on the line. Now though, while actually in heat, Steve isn't just beginning to regret that decision. He does regret that decision.

He's never been more desperate to be fucked in his life and Bucky only seems to want to push that desperation further and further and further.

Don't You Hear Me Howling, Babe?- Fandomfluffandfuck

Nothing scratches the primal, animal itch in the back of Steve's hindbrain like having his alpha chase him. It further proves to Steve what consciously already knows; he already knows that his alpha is worthy of having him, that his alpha can catch him and therefore he can take him, yet, it's still pleasurable to have the reminder. It's still pleasurable to have that itch scratched.

Which is the reason why Steve ends up running from his alpha - heart beating out of his chest, dick hard in his pants, and hole already beginning to produce slick - through the middle of a goddamn forest. Even while running away, he cannot wait for his alpha to run him down, pin him down, and have his way with him. Behaving just the way their alpha and omega ancestors did. It's animal.

Primal.

CHAPTER 12

Pairing: WS!Bucky x Reader [AO3 LINK] Rating: Explicit Tags/Warnings: canon-typical violence, canon-divergent, angst, fluff, music soothes the soul y’all, soft boi Bucky, all the sex Summary:  You happen to get caught in the Winter Soldier’s attack one day, but you don’t expect to ever see him again. You definitely don’t expect him to show up at your home, bleeding. You definitely, definitely don’t expect to want to go on the run with him.

As you make your way through the channel of Istanbul and through Oslo, Bucky fidgets more than usual. Something isn’t quite sitting right with him, but he can’t quite place it. It doesn’t make sense, given that he’d been relatively careful, and it’s been quiet for months.

They end up in Ireland of all places, and get lost in the boisterous crowds and lively streets.

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

With my pretty little Galway Girl

You're my pretty little Galway Girl

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet

A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat

Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me

In hindsight, Bucky knows he should’ve listened to his gut instinct. There was something off about Paris, and even then he’d wanted to bolt, the pure joy on your face kept your feet from moving. He thought, hell, if this is the way to go, I’d be alright with that as he watched the lights of the Eiffel Tower fade away.

But he could see it in your face, in your eyes, how much you loved the romantic places you’d visited. He can see the way your eyes roam over art and your fingers twitch trying to hold yourself back from reaching out and touching.

You never do with him, though.

The both of you sit on the little balcony attached to your room at an inn that you were renting, with his arm around your shoulders. The ground was still hard, despite the blankets and pillows you’d brought out here to gaze at the city below.

The lights scattered across the city looked like fireflies, and they make your features look even softer.

“Hey, Buck?”

He’s caught off guard, wondering if you could feel him staring. “Yeah?”

“You think one day you’ll settle down? You know, if Hydra was gone, or they stopped looking for you?”

They might never stop, he thinks to himself. Even if they no longer consider him an Asset, he still has a wealth of knowledge of how they operate, their numbers and bases, and most importantly — their serum flowed through his veins. If not to drain it from him, they likely wouldn’t want anyone else getting their hands on it.

“Sorry,” you whisper softly, and that’s when he realizes that he’d been silent for too long.

“No, it’s okay,” he says quickly, giving your shoulders a squeeze. “Just thinking.”

You turn to him, leaning into him. “It’s okay if you don’t answer, too.”

“I… don’t think I know how,” he admits.

“That’s okay,” you assure him, hand resting over his chest.

He can’t help but feel he’s let you down.

—

You’re nearly out of Venice when the peace you’d built is shattered.

 Bucky knows what a gunshot sounds like. He could never forget it, actually. So when it rings out, his first instinct is: protect.

You grunt softly as he all but tackles you into a nearby alley, covering your body with his. Before you even catch your breath, he’s pushing you to run and you have no clue where you’re going, but as long as you can see a path, you run.

You don’t know how long you run for, but you can hear Bucky’s footsteps behind you, knowing he has no problem keeping up with you, of course, regardless of what path you take.

Eventually, the sounds die out behind you, and you wonder if you’ve lost them. Either way, Bucky doesn’t seem to care.

The shot had missed, miraculously, and when you two are far out of Venice, deep in the quieter streets of Slovenia, Bucky frantically checks you over again.

“I’m fine – Bucky? Bucky, look at me,” you plead, hands gently tipping his chin upward. “I’m okay, really. I promise.”

And you were. Aside from the weak feeling in your legs and a wild cramp you had from running, there wasn’t anything else. Not so much as a single mark.

Not until Bucky puts his own along your body that night, the both of you desperately reassuring yourselves – and each other – that they’re out of harm’s way.

For now.

 As you predicted, you’re only awake for a few minutes before Bucky is ushering you out and out of Slovenia, eager to put some distance between you and your assailants.

You make him stop in Croatia, just for a bit of a rest and restocking if not to coerce him into having some of the most delicious seafood you’ve ever encountered. Didn’t you two deserve to indulge, even when they’re on the run?

You skirt around the edge of Serbia, because Bucky doesn’t particularly want to set foot there either. Knowing better than to ask him, you simply agree and follow. It doesn’t take a lot to imagine that it’s probably related to his time with Hydra, just like everything else that spooks him.

Finally, you arrive in Romania. You pass by the beautiful architecture of Timișoara, and even though it’s getting dark, there’s something… light about the way all the colourful houses are just shy of whimsical and the way you clop along the cobblestone path. Bucky can feel it too, you’re pretty sure, because he finally slows a bit.

They’re greeted as they walk down the street and to your surprise, and possibly Bucky’s too, he responds in kind. He holds your hand as you continue walking, and Bucky suddenly changes direction.

“Are you alright?” You ask, because if Bucky knows the language, it means he’s spent time here and usually that doesn’t sit well with him.

He nods quietly. “I think so. Maybe we can stop for a bit? I… It’s possible I remember…”

There’s a squint of his eye as he tries to recall the memory into focus, and you don’t push. Rubbing your hand up and down his arm, you wait for him to sort out his thoughts before he confidently walks again, making a right turn.

It puts more distance between you and Serbia this way.

He’s right, of course. You hadn’t doubted him for even a second, but you could always tell when Bucky was nervous about something.

It takes a few days for it to pass, Bucky’s back losing some tension bit by bit as you slowly travel south-east. Bucky comes back to your room one day, a crumpled receipt for your lunch in hand with his writing on the back. At your curious peeking, Bucky runs his thumb over the slightly-smudged ink.

“It’s an apartment. Few blocks from here,” Bucky explains. Your eyebrows fly to your hairline; the last thing you expected was for Bucky to stop. If anything, you thought he’d mapped out the next few stops already. Not too far, of course — it’s hard to track someone if even they don’t know where they’re going.

You take his hands in yours “You sure?”

Bucky gives you a reassuring smile, though it doesn’t quite stretch across his face. “Yeah, sweetheart. I’m sure.”

Bucharest becomes the closest to home either of you feel since Indonesia. While it wasn’t a hut built out of Bucky’s bare hands, they did start to make it theirs.

Everything you owned came in bits and pieces, never quite a whole set, and yet it made it feel even more authentic. Bucky would bring home fresh fruits, and you’d scoop up some sort of mismatched thing at a local shop. None of your spoons or forks matched.

It was perfect.

—

“Hey, Buck?”

“Mm?” He slowly opens his eyes to look at you from where his head rests in your lap.

“We never celebrated your birthday,” you say, upset. In the whirlwind of your adventures, you hadn’t thought to ask Bucky when his birthday was. You had shared a small cake on the balcony of a villa in Morocco for yours just a few months prior, and you feel silly for not putting it together sooner.

Bucky bites his lip, fingers fidgeting with the hand you lay on his chest. “Truthfully doll? I don’t really know when it is. I think… May? Or March? One of those two, I’m pretty sure.”

You stop yourself from crying. He’s told you things that you had wanted the answers to, even though you weren’t so sure you did afterward. The horrors, the trauma, all the fucked up things that Bucky survived — he was able to recite it all like it was a movie he’d seen or a book he read, like they didn’t happen to him. You know that it’s his way of distancing himself from the terrible things they’d inflicted on him, but it hurt to know you couldn’t help him in any way.

Even still, when you think you’ve heard the worst possible things, every so often a small, innocent statement still breaks your heart. How do you erase someone’s identity so much so that they don’t know their name or their birthday.

Did Bucky remember any of his birthdays? What had Bucky’s family done to celebrate? What was his favourite kind of birthday cake?

“We missed it,” you say at last, voice cracking even if you weren’t crying. Yet. “And I never got you a gift!

“Hey, hey, it’s okay,” Bucky instantly says, propping himself up to come face-to-face with you. “It’s just a day, like any other, ain’t it? Besides, I already feel ancient.”

You let out a small, huffed laugh. He genuinely didn’t seem concerned, though you suppose that happens when you’re ninety years old in the body of someone in their thirties. “But…”

“And,” Bucky interrupts, closing in. “I got the best gift of all, right ‘ere.”

He distracts you momentarily, and you think about how unfair it is that even after all this time, you melt for his kisses all the same. It takes a second to recover, sure, but you haven’t forgotten.

“We still have catching up to do. I’m going to make you a cake!” You decide. “Maybe a fresh fruit one, we can go to the market together tomorrow.”

“Alright, alright,” Bucky concedes, a grin starting to form as his fingers trail up your side.. “Now come here, I’ve thought of something else I want.”

AS A PERSON WITH ED I HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT THIS

imho I think Bucky has more likely a mixture of different sorts of ED at different stages of his life and I certainly think bed/bulimia is very likely post WS

his bad eating habit started when he was a kid. sure his family was relatively rich but he still had 3 sisters and 1 Steve to take care of during the great depression. he always ate little, and when he actually indulged himself, maybe just one little cupcake, he felt guilty.

then there's war. when he was captured, he probably lost 10, 20 pounds depending on how long his captivity was.

researches have shown that people who suffered through starvation have much higher chance of developing eating disorders, and just unhealthy relationship with food in general.

he also had the serum, so he was literally starving all the time. thanks to Steve, when they weren't on the frontline, they got to eat relatively well. he ate as much as he could and then went on for days, even weeks of eating bare minimum in battle. all of the howlies were doing that so that wasn't unusual.

as the Winter Soldier, he only ate things like protein bars, you know the high calorie supplements that'd keep him functional. the Winter Soldier was not hungry. he was never full either.

the first few weeks after caws he pretty much continued the Hydra diet until he found out about the various flavours of protein bars. chocolate, cookies, cappuccino etc. and he starts to ate a lot of them. from there he graduated to actual food (it took a lot of time for his stomach to get used to It), and it began.

he ate a lot. like, a lot. he was always hungry and yearning for more, it's like 80 years of constant starvation was finally catching up to him. he ate until he physically couldn't. he ate and that's the only way to feel better.

after wakanda, he'd lost the freedom to eat as much as he wanted bc 1. money 2. the frequent visits from neighbors and shuri and Steve

he'dwait, anxiously, until he was alone to do it. that's when he learned how to purge because sometimes people came to him after a binge, he was too full to eat so he purged. there's something cathartic about purging too, he didn't know what.

by the time IW came around, Bucky had barely had one continuous week of normal eating.

I'm on my 'Bucky developed ARFID over the course of his time with HYDRA' hill and I'm chaining myself to a tree at the precipice

THE HUNTERS & THE SOLDIER

Pairing: Avenger!Bucky Barnes x OC! Avenger Reader

Summary: You were rescued from Hydra and then joined the Avengers. Bucky seems to hate you and you’re sent on a mission together for indefinite time.

Warnings: Mention of experiments, torture and d3ad bodies and things like that. Don’t read if you’re not comfortable with that. Bucky being a bit of an asshole towards you. Also the reader has a name and a last name if that counts as a warning?

Other: This will be some sort of MCU x Supernatural fic. English isn’t my fist language so I apologize in advance for any mistake I made. -> 18+ !!

-> Masterlist

-> Part two

-> Hydra is home (01)

You were born in hell. That’s what Hydra was for you and for everyone who had witnessed the horrors of what happened inside the walls of that place - and there was more than one facility. The worst part is that you didn’t even know, you thought it was normality.

You thought it was normal being used and trained to be a lethal assassin at a young age; you were the youngest and they made you feel special for that. Hydra’s perfect child, that’s how they called you. The only toy you’ve ever had was a knife, and you never questioned it or thought it was horrifying up until you were an adult.

From the earliest age, you were taught that your suffering served a greater purpose, that your pain was going to save that fucked up world you lived in. Not that you had any idea of which color the sky was up until you were six, let alone knowing the rest of the world and it’s shit. You knew no other life besides the walk between your room and the laboratory - the place where you were tied up to those cold metal tables under the gaze of Hydra’s scientists.

But to you, that was normality. That was home, the place you were the safest in - they said. Hydra fed you lies all your life, making you think their atrocities were for the greater good and that you were needed. What they were doing was needed.

Worst thing? You never complained. Always complied.

You learned later on in years that you were being used to recreate a better Super Soldier serum, like the one they used on Captain America and The Winter Soldier. A better, more effective serum that was gonna give them their disciplined weapon, with a few more characteristics. It was a mystery how you survived, to you and to everyone who took a look in your DNA.

They made you a freak.

When you were fifteen, things changed and your whole world turned upside down. It was in the middle of the night that you heard the facility’s alarm, the loud and scary sound meant one thing: bad people had broke in. So you did as you practiced: you moved the rug on floor and used that safety trapdoor to hide, hoping that they wouldn’t find you.

Meanwhile, SHIELD agents were storming in every room of the base, looking for either survivors or Hydra members.

Your heart stopped when the little door above you swung open and you saw a masked man pointing a rifle at you. Hydra was right, you decided then, those were bad people. You don’t exactly remember what happened after, you don’t remember if you tried to fight them or if you passed out. Everything is a blur memory.

What you do remember next, though, is being taken to yet another facility. In the beginning all you could see were monsters who wanted to feed you lies; they said Hydra was bad, that they were a terroristic organization who aimed to rule the world. Crazy, wasn’t it?

Hydra was home.

You didn’t collaborate with them for years, not even when Maria Hill offered you visive proof of how fucked up Hydra was. It was impossible that all you knew, all that you’ve been taught was a lie.

But there was another part: the pain stopped. No more experiments or missions to catch the bad guys with the little help all those samples gave you. No more blood or guns or atrocities - nothing.

Many people amongst SHIELD agents only saw you as just another freak, but weaker than Captain America and with a twisted brain. They saw you as no more than just another Hydra experiment, one that could not be good. You had no name, no family, no friends - you were just existing… and for what? You yourself didn’t know.

Nick Fury was the one who was interested in you. You had heard his name being mentioned a few times before actually meeting him. Perhaps it was just because you had some sort of Super Soldier serum in you and he was only caring for that, but he stepped in and helped you whether you wanted or not.

And he succeeded.

He saw beyond those scars, visible and invisible, recognizing the potential you could have as an actual human being. Fury insisted in your rehabilitation, and with time he saw the first results.

It took you a lot of time and effort to feel like a human being for the first time in 23 years, it wasn’t an easy process by any means and you still weren’t a hundred percent okay with everything. Being told that for fifteen years of you life you were nothing more than a sack of meat with a functioning brain for people to use to their advance wasn’t exactly ideal, especially after learning that it wasn’t normal as you thought.

At first you didn’t even realize how fucked up it was, perhaps you didn’t want to.

But under SHIELD’s care, you started to heal both physically and mentally as best as you could. You were given a name as soon as you were rescued, but you didn’t accept it up until you were 20.

Emma Dayne, that was your new legal name as a free woman. One that had a say in her own life.

That was the name Fury used when you were brought into the Avengers Compound as the newest addition to the team. You, a superhero? Sometimes you felt like you didn’t deserve it. Those people fought against the very same people you called family, those same people who raised you. Thankfully, they never held you accountable for that.

Except him.

James Buchanan Barnes. When he looked at you, all he saw was the enemy: someone who, unlike him, had willingly served Hydra for more than half of her life. He made it clear from the start that he didn’t trust you, he was always cold (which wasn’t rare, but even colder with you) and guarded whenever you were around.

Whenever his eyes found your figure, he couldn’t shake off the memories of his past as the Winter Soldier. The feeling of loss for the years that were stolen from him and that life he could never go back to came back as soon as he saw you, and he started to loathe the sight of you - he felt even worse when he saw how much the other teammates liked you.

But you could not blame him. Not even a bit. You took his silence as a reminder of what you had done - maybe if you had opened your eyes sooner you could have done something, anything, to help him.

After all, you two weren’t completely strangers. You both had worked for the same organization, and you saw him from time to time - you felt guilty. As soon as you saw the hatred in his eyes, when you joined the team, you were consumed by guilt.

But then again, the last time you saw him you were eleven. Super Soldier or not, you were a kid. Your therapist - saint woman - was helping you with that, at least. You knew that earning his trust was gonna take time, and maybe a lifetime wasn’t enough - you knew that in his position you would have been the same. Perhaps his trust wasn’t even your goal, you didn’t know what you wanted from him. You just knew that every time his eyes fell on you, you felt small. Smaller than a bug, and you wanted to change that.

You wanted him to know that you weren’t the enemy he thought you were.

It was a Saturday afternoon when Tony Stark’s voice broke you out of your thoughts, contemporarily snapping his fingers to get your attention. “Dayne, stop thinking about princesses and unicorns. I need your attention, sweetie.”

“Sorry, I got lost in my thoughts.” You replied, crossing your legs under the big, round wooden table. You were in the meeting room with the other Avengers - most of them, anyways, and their eyes were all on you. Not judging, some had smiles on their faces.

Except one who wasn’t even looking at you.

“Happens to the best of us too.” He shrugged it off, pointing at himself with a grin. Usual. “But seriously, now I need everyone’s attention or I fear Fury might kill me.” He continued.

“What’s the situation, Tony?” Steve Rogers inquired, his usual serious expression on.

Tony leaned forward on the table, after he sat down as well, clasping his hands together. “We’ve been getting reports of Hydra activity in various parts of the States.” He explained. “Specifically, they’ve been targeting civilians. They’re kidnapping them for, what we suspect, making experiments. They’re targeting people with no family, no friends or someone who wouldn’t look for them. They found the first body near the Donner Lake, in California. The first we were able to identify, at least.”

A picture of a woman appeared on a screen behind Tony, and he continued. “Taylor Harris. She was their first slip- up, as the woman had an ex husband and a kid. He divorced her because apparently she had an addiction to drugs and was physically abusive towards the kid. Ever since then, he got a restraining order against her and the full custody of the kid. Should have gone to jail but she went missing. She actually got missing three weeks ago, and she’s been presumably dead for at least a week.”

“What makes us think this is Hydra?” Clint said, his voice stern. The man had tried to retire about six times and yet there he was. “America is full of psychopaths.”

“True.” Tony nodded. “But they made some tests and traces of the Super Soldier serum was found. If it’s not Hydra, then I don’t know what we’re dealing with.”

“I thought they had the Super Soldier serum already.” Thor frowned, his mighty Mjolnir always by his side. “Why are they kidnapping people?”

“They had something else. They weren’t able to recreate it after they used it on Bucky.” You said, looking at the God. “They tried everything to come close to it, but pretty much all the subjects they experimented on died. Some turned into… things. And eventually got killed when they didn’t comply. I was the only result they had.”

“So… they want another you.” Thor looked at you.

You shrugged. “They want a lot of things. Probably they’re looking forward to make something that can’t break out of their control.”

“If you were ever out of their control.” You heard him mumble those words under his breath, but no one else seemed to hear. You were used to it by now, so you stayed silent as the conversation between the Avengers went on.

“So what do we do?” Natasha sighed, crossing her arms under her chest. Both her feet on the table as it was a habit of her it seemed.

“We send undercover agents.” Tony answered. “The agents being you.” He gestured to the whole room. “Or half of you, the ones suited for the job.” He added.

“Great.” Clint grunted.

“Natasha and Clint, you’re assigned to Las Vegas, Nevada - don’t look at me like that. Fury’s orders.” Tony pointed at the annoyed may sat next to Natasha. All he wanted was some time to play golf, and he was always called in for a new mission. He couldn’t even hear properly anymore.

“Steve and Sharon, you lovebirds are going to Denver, Colorado.” He went on, reading the pair of agents from his phone. “Yelena and Kate, have fun in Lawrence, Kansas.“

“And then… oh. Emma and James, you’re going to Lincoln, Nebraska.” Tony put his phone down. “Sam is momentarily busy in California where they found the body, so for now this is everything. You guys will find other agents there, you’ll meet them once you arrive.”

“Why these cities?” Bucky asked, clenching his jaw. This was the first mission where he was paired up with you, and he didn’t like it one bit. But knowing Fury, there was nothing he could do to change it.

“Because that’s where SHIELD suspects Hydra’s activity. There are some bodies that have been found specifically in these places, they’re unrecognizable and have been there for longer than poor Taylor. They believe they have undercover agents there, so that’s who you have to find.” Tony answered, chewing some cashews he kept in his pockets. For some reason.

“When do we have to leave?” Yelena asked, snatching some cashews from Tony’s hands.

He glared at her before answering. “You’re needed there Monday morning already, I fear. You have today and tomorrow to pack your things and get out of my sight.” He got up from his chair. “Have fun, fellas.”

“Wait a second, what about me?” Wanda asked as Tony was about to leave the room.

“You’re the backup plan, Granger.” Tony chuckled at his own nickname for Wanda. “So are we. They find them, we step in to take them down. Plus I need someone to punch Loki in the face in case he tries something, you’re the only one strong enough to do it.”

“Hey!” Thor sounded offended. “Not the only one!”

“This place is awful.” Loki mumbled.

“Then leave.” Clint scoffed.

“You’re dismissed, children.” Tony walked out. “Try not to stab each other.”

“And boring too.” Loki added.

* * * *

“You’re supposed to fold your clothes before putting them into the bag.” Bucky’s voice remarked dryly, taking your attention away from your bag.

He was leaning against the doorframe of your room, looking at you sternly. As always.

“Thanks for the tip, Barnes.” You retorted, messily throwing a pair of pants inside the bag. You weren’t really having it, ever since you learned that Hydra was kidnapping people to do to them what they did to you. Except that those people had a life before. “What do you want?”

He walked into your room without even asking for permission and tossed a stack of paper on your bed. “The details of this mission and our fake identities, wifey.” He sounded quite calm but you could see he was pissed about it, he always was when it came to you. “Thought you may want to take a look.”

“Uh?” You frowned at the unusual nickname, picking up the papers and reading as fast as you could, until your eyes landed on the role you had to play.

His wife.

What a joke.

“Thanks.” You mumbled, as you felt his burning eyes on you. It’s nothing you haven’t done before with Sam or even Pietro, but pretending to love him and be all affectionate with him in public when this was the longest conversation you’ve ever had? That was gonna be interesting, to say the least.

He nodded and turn around to walk out, but before he actually left he couldn’t bite his tongue any longer. “One wrong move is all I need, Dayne.” He said, and that sounded like a threat.

Your eyes narrowed, a mixture of frustration and anger bubbling within you. “If I wanted to screw you guys over I would have done it already. It’s been a year, Sergeant, I believe you could trust me by now. Or at least start to.”

“Trust is earned, not given.” He replied, his tone leaving no room for arguments. “And you haven’t earned mine.”

“I’ll fucking live with it.”

“Have a good night.” He said without meaning it in the slightest, before leaving you to yourself once again.

“Go fuck yourself.”

Bucky Barnes was your personal headache.

My media this week (27 Aug-2 Sep 2023)

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

🥰 Unseen (Rath & Rune #2) (Jordan L. Hawk, author; Joel Leslie, narrator) - back in Widdershins with Librarian Sebastian & his be-tentacled half-human lover Vesper Rune, trying to collect the evil Books of the Bound. The Rune brothers are also finding that unfortunately it's harder to cut ties with an abusive family than one might wish.

🥰 Pretend to Be Nice (Interdepartmental Cooperation #2) (seekwill) - 57K, GO Gabriel/Beelzebub - same universe as Golden Handcuffs, just as good as that fic - I love a fic where two jagged edged people learn to see how their broken pieces fit together

🥰 Unknown (Rath & Rune #3) (Jordan L. Hawk, author; Joel Leslie, narrator) - On the hunt for the Book of Bone. Widdershins may know its own but the Old Families definitely still cause a lot of harm

😍 The 70 Days After Groundhog Day (Ptelea) - really great Batfam fic - Dick's POV, focusing on Jason & Dick but also about Jason's relationship to everyone after a 53-day timeloop that only Jason can remember

💖💖 +121K of shorter fic so shout out to these I really loved 💖💖

love you like rlb (orphan_account) - MCU: stucky, 3K - forever fave, reread - when Steve wakes up he finds the phrase 'love you like rlb' is world-famous, but no one knows why and he doesn't tell them, at least not immediately

No Place Like Home (asocialconstruct) - MCU: stucky, 5k - post-WS Bucky time travels to pre-war Stucky & sexy times ensue - always a fun, hot read

Cassiopeia, Orion, Bootes (AidaRonan) - Stranger Things: steddie, 10K - forgot how much I love this fic with the hilarious tag 'he was a gator boi' & some extremely excellent monsterfucking

[Podfic] The Three-Steve Solution (seleneaurora) - MCU: stucky/samsteve/stony, 6K - excellently done podfic of a hilarious cracky fic with multiverse Steves of different omegaverse designations being kidnapped by baddies and their respective partners showing up to rescue them

[podfic] Doctor Feelgood (cricketsong1985) - MCU: stucky, 10K - fave, relisten- another great podfic - Bucky discovers one of Steve's kinks and sets out to make his fantasy real - hot sex but also I love how well their relationship is expressed

Weekly Recap | August 8th-28th

Heyyyyyy everyone! Can’t believe summer is almost over :( Sooo this time my excuse for skipping a few weeks is being busy, seeing friends, etc etc, but also I somehow managed to fall back into Twilight 😆 

Complete

💙 Nothing Said by alby_mangroves/ @artgroves, theemdash/ @theemdash (Post-Endgame | 8K | Mature): There’s always been another war, another reason for Steve to keep his feelings to himself and keep moving on. For all his wishes to do things differently, he never figured out how. Which is why following Fury to the moon, passing on the shield, and leaving Bucky to discover himself seemed like the right answer. When Steve gets caught in a force field surrounding a crumbling civilization, he starts to realize everything he thought was wrong.

💙 i could have chained your heart to a star by PanoramicSubDrop/ @koiponderingart, powerfulowl (StuckyFlangst)/ @stuckyflangst (Canon divergent, Post-TFA | 16K | Explicit): Steve Rogers came out of the ice in 1965. Almost thirty years later he discovered Bucky Barnes had survived, and it seemed like a chance for a new beginning. But when Bucky say that he doesn't want Steve in his life anymore, Steve has to forge a life without Bucky. Now, in 2025, two aging supersoldiers find themselves back in Brooklyn, reconnecting.

💙 There is a Tavern in the Town by musette22/ @musette22 (Evanstan RPF | 10K | Explicit): It's 2011, and Chris and Sebastian are in the UK, filming for Captain America: The First Avenger. One evening, they head to a local pub for a pint and end up talking about the upcoming Bar Scene. Seb suggests they practice. 

WIP

💙 Okay, so he can play… (pretty’s got nothing to do with it) by darter_blue/ @darter-blue​ (University Hockey AU | 4/10 | 21K | Explicit): This is supposed to be Steve’s year. He’s meant to be taking his team to finals. He’s meant to be the number one draft pick. He’s meant to have it all. Until in walks the new kid, with his beautiful face and his tiny shoulders and his long hair and his graceful skating. Who doesn’t look anything like a proper hockey player. Who’s going to ruin everything. Bucky Barnes is about to bring Steve Roger’s world crashing down. And Steve is about to realise that’s a good thing.Maybe the best thing that ever happened to him.

💙 hey now, you’re an all star (get your game on, go play) by buckyismybicycle/ @buckyismybicycle​ (NHL Hockey AU | 2/? | 6K | Explicit): Boston Bruins trade notorious party animal/human disaster Bucky Barnes to the Dallas Stars, and captain Steve Rogers is not impressed when Fury puts him on babysitting duties. But, as he gets to know Bucky - really gets to know Bucky - he wonders if maybe the media has got it all wrong - very, very wrong.

This is (not) a Ghost Story [COMIC] by PottersPink/ @potterspink (Post-WS | 6/31 | General): Steve moves into a haunted house. Well — everyone else is convinced it’s haunted, anyways.

Re-read

💙 Love Me Tender Like What Keeps You Well by thiccbuckybarnes/ @thiccbuckybarnesfic​ (Historical A/B/O AU | 24K | Explicit): Steve Rogers, an alpha, widow, retired army captain, and master of the Allaheim estate, is happy to welcome new neighbors next to his manor in his pleasant little village of York. He hopes to gain new friends to brighten up his lonely life, and ends up getting much more than he bargained for when he meets the son of his new neighbor, James.

💙 As You Seep On In And Keep Me Down by thiccbuckybarnes/ @thiccbuckybarnesfic​ (Shrunkyclunks AU | 8K | Explicit): Bucky Barnes is a man of many names.But first and foremost, he’s an ass man. He likes his guys small, able to be bent in half when he fucks them. He likes being bigger, being in control, likes crowding little twinks up and wrecking them so thoroughly they cry.But he makes the wrong judgement when he first sees Steve in a bar; Steve’s all height, wide shoulders and muscle, clearly wouldn’t want the things that Bucky wants. It isn’t until he sees Steve shrink up from rejection, sees how pretty his cheeks look in an embarrassed flush, that he realizes that Steve is everything he wants.It’s a good thing, too, when Steve gives him a second chance because if he hadn’t, Bucky would have missed out on the meal of his life.

💙 It's Been A Long Season Through by thiccbuckybarnes/ @thiccbuckybarnesfic​ (Stardew Valley AU | 49K | Explicit): Bucky Barnes is in desperate need of a change in scenery, which is why he makes the foolhardy decision to quit his job, leave his asshole of a fiance, pack up his life, and move to his grandfather’s old farm all within a single day.He expects confusion, hardship, and maybe even failure. But love? He wasn’t expecting that. (Part 1 of Stardew Valley AU)

💙 oh, peach pit, where'd the hours go? by thiccbuckybarnes/ @thiccbuckybarnesfic​ (Stardew Valley AU | 10K | Explicit): Or, Steve learns that just because he and Bucky got their happily ever after, it doesn’t mean the past won’t come back to bite them. (Part 2 of Stardew Valley AU)

💙 Blooming Under the Dappled Light by thiccbuckybarnes/ @thiccbuckybarnesfic​ (Historical AU, False Identity | 52K | Explicit): Despite being the son of a gentleman, James "Bucky" Barnes could scarcely allow himself the hope of one day being tied to another in happy matrimony. In a society where the first-born children are revered and inherit all of a family's wealth, last-born Bucky feels trapped in a life he did not ask for.When he makes the drastic decision to run away and become a tutor for a wealthy family, he is hoping to save enough pennies to someday have a dowry and be worthy for marriage despite his disposition. What he is not anticipating, however, is falling into the rough and skilled hands of his employer, the rakish widow Lord Steven Rogers.

💙 G.I. Joes and 2AM Diners by OhCaptainMyCaptain/ @ohcaptainmycaptain1918​ (Modern AU, Childhood Friends | 100K | Explicit): They look nothing like what they used to. Time and life have completely changed them. But as they sit there in silence, eating two halves of one cupcake, letting Brooklyn remind there where they came from, and enjoying a sky full of stars… They are those same little boys, somewhere deep down. For just a second, you’d be able to see them again.And Bucky thinks to himself that maybe it’s little moments like these – fleeting as they may be – that remind him why life is still worth living.

So here for your amazing blog and epic writing keeping me entertained while I'm sick!

Many thoughts of sick Biker!Bucky wandering about with the flu and denying everything whole clearly needing to be taken care of.

SUMMARY// Bucky being sick is something he will always deny

WARNINGS// sick bucky, cursing, implied smut

AU// biker!bucky x f!reader

NOTE// drabble number 4 got more votes, idk how I feel ab this quite yet, but I have an impromptu bodyguard!ws x mafia!reader for later, do with that information what you will

Bucky had been sick before, a common cold that went away as fast as it came.

This sickness felt different, though. He had the cough and stuffy nose. But, his stomach felt weird and he couldn't get warm no matter how many clothes he layered under his kutte.

Sam and Steve both noticed his different posture and snappier-than-usual attitude when he walked in the bar.

"Buck, you alright?" Steve asked, bucky nodding his head as he snuffed his cigarette out on the ashtray on the bar. "Just a cold, it'll be gone by tomorrow." He sniffed, trying to breathe some fresh air through his nose. "Maybe we should call-"

"Call and tell on me to my girlfriend and I'll fire you, Wilson." Bucky said walking to his office. Steve looking over at Sam as he took out his phone. "You're so stupid." Steve sighed when he saw who his friend was calling. "He'll listen to her."

You sighed heavily when you walked into Bucky's office. His head propped up on his bionic left hand, eyes closed and his cheeks and tip of his nose red. "Time to go home, big boy." You said, going to stand behind his desk chair. Your hands gently rubbing his shoulders.

"I'm fucking firing them." He groaned, leaning back against his your touch as he shut his heavy eyes again. "No, you're not. C'mon, you need to get some rest." You retorted, carding your fingers through his long hair.

"I'm fine. It's just a cold, baby." He mumbled, tilting his head back to look at you and puckering his lips for a kiss. You shook your head and pressed a kiss to his forehead, feeling his fever against your lips. "It's not just a cold- you're burning up, Buck. Let's just go home, I'll make you some soup and we can lay in bed all day."

"I'm a grown man, I don't need to be babied over a cough." Bucky grumbled under his breath as he leaned forward a little. A quick yelp passing his lips when you flicked the back of his neck. "The fuck was that for?" He huffed, rubbing the spot with his metallic hand. "You're being stubborn. Get your ass up, we're going home."

Rolling his eyes, he grabbed his keys from the bowl on his desk. "Yes, ma'am... Can we have sex?" He asked, turning to look at your disapproving look. "I'll take that as a no." He chuckled, the rumbled sound making his coughing start again. "Out." You demanded, pressing your palms to his back when he turned around.

⛓ ⛓ ⛓ ⛓ ⛓ ⛓

Bucky grumbled the entire way home. Muttering under his breath how he wasn't sick as he undressed beside the bed, slipping under the covers just as he heard you getting a bowl down from the cabinet in the kitchen.

"You're not staying in bed with me?" He asked as you handed the bowl of soup to him and started to walk away. "In a minute, just eat your soup."

Bucky quietly flipped through the channels on the TV that sat on the dresser as he ate, seeing you walk back in from the corner of his eye.

"Took a shower?" He asked, looking over your frame as you looked through the closet. A fluffy grey towel wrapped securely around you as you slipped your underwear on. "Yeah, you done?"

"I'll take it in the kitchen, I'm capable." Bucky chuckled, standing from his spot. "I feel fine, pretty girl."

Rolling your eyes, you slipped one of his shirts on. Feeling the warmth of his body behind you as the hem dropped to your thighs. "You walked down the hallway to the kitchen and you're already shivering, J.B." you sighed, shaking your head at him.

"Am not." He muttered, wrapping his arms around you. The mechanical whirring of his left sounding in your ear. "Can't you just accept someone's help for once? You have a fever and you're freezing, get in the damn bed before I tie you to it." You snapped, pulling yourself out of his grip.

"Well, when you say it like that, it really makes me not wanna get in the bed." Bucky chuckled, getting back under the warm blankets.

Pulling you into his side, he continued flipping through the channels. Thoughts wandering to what you had said. "You really wanna tie me up to the bed? I'll let you."

You sighed and rubbed your hand across his sturdy chest. "I know you would, Buck." You said, shifting around to get comfortable. A brief silence settling in the room before he sat up abruptly. "I'll get the cuffs."

You reached for him when he stood, laughing lightly. "Buck, wait-"

"Just give me five minutes and I'll gladly lay in that bed for the rest of the day!"
