could you maybe write something about chubby Bucky having a noisy belly after a meal and reader listens to it

Growling belly

Chubby!bucky x reader

Hey anon! Thank you so much for sending me an ask! 😊

I hope you like what I wrote, I probably made it more wholesome than smut, but I hope you still like it. 😊

I’m also sorry for the long wait.

*

You can request anything you like anytime!

Words: 383

Characters: James Bucky Barnes (marvel)

Warning: WHOLESOME

*

Bucky had been gaining a lot of weight over the past few months, partly because of your good cooking.

He just can’t seem to stop eating your food, which mostly leads to him being absolutely stuffed.

Today isn’t any different except for his belly making more noise than usual.

*

“Hi big guy, how are you holding up?” You giggle after hearing his belly grumble.

“Mff- just so stuffed peach. I can’t help it, your food is just too good” he smiles.

“Sounds we’re expecting a food baby. Lemme listen.” You role his shirt up (further then it already is) and put your ear on his belly.

“Mhh definitely a food baby” you giggle while rubbing his belly.

“Oh yeah, can you hear him kick?” Bucky jokes.

“How do you know it’s a he????” you say offended.

“Doll, it isn’t even a real baby relax” he laughs.

“Let me just listen to it for a while, tough guy” you smile.

“Hmm, alright… You gotta give me belly rubs tough!” “Of course I’ll give you belly rubs big guy”

*

You lay your head back against his belly listening to the sounds while rubbing his belly.

“So good doll” he gives you a kiss on the top of your head.

You don’t respond, you’re too focused on the sounds of his belly. It sounds beautiful and natural, and it means he is well-fed, it means he’s been taken care of by you. You remember when you met him, he was so skinny, too skinny. He was so unsure and insecure and look where he is now. He has grown so much since then (in multiple ways) and you’re so proud of him for that.

The sounds remind you that he’s save and well now.

The sounds remind you that he is yours and yours only.

And that’s how you fall asleep on the belly of your perfectly beautiful boyfriend.

*

Thank you for reading!

And again ask anything you like anytime <3

Bucky shows his love by cutting off the crust on your sandwiches, letting you know how pretty you are, regardless of how worn-out you look, by calling you when he’s out drunk with his friends because, or just doing your laundry ‘cause he knows the washing machine hates you. The concept of a safe haven was lost on you until Bucky Barnes walked into your life, wrapped his arms around you and spent his Saturday nights carefully wiping off your make-up before you two go to bed. It’s a beautiful concept to learn.

LAST UPDATED: 30 November 2021

[the-beskar-alchemist]

Bucky x reader imagines that live rent-free in my head (I'm not a writer, but I really needed to get these off my chest)

I'm typically Mandalorian-centric, so if you prefer to avoid this little tangent of mine I have added a cut for your convenience.

My ADHD has me daydreaming CONSTANTLY, so if you're reading this than you don't mind tumbling down the rabbit hole with me...

1) Chubby!Baker!Bucky x Coyote Ugly!Reader - Reader has a meet-cute with Bucky at his bakery right after it opens one morning. A case of PMS leads reader to the only bakery with a dessert that will help her feel better. Reader is a bartender at the infamous Coyote Ugly in New York, fluffy romance ensues, reader stops by every morning at the bakery to visit Bucky before the bakery opens, and sometimes he'll even wake up in time to drive/walk her home after her shift.

2) Fullmetal Alchemist - Bucky is insecure about his arm, so he tries to avoid letting reader see it. Reader is an anime fan and LOVES the series Fullmetal Alchemist, so they decide the best way to show Bucky how cool his arm is would be to introduce him to their favorite cyborg character: Edward Elric. Fluff ensues, Bucky jokingly refers to reader as his "Winry".

3) Supernatural/FaTWS - During one of his therapy sessions, Bucky can't help but notice that Dr. Raynor has a new piece of artwork hanging on the wall across from the couch. It's a strange symbol that seems a little cultish, but Raynor brushes it off as something she found to "add variety" to the room. Later another super soldier is spotted wreaking havoc on New York.....a soldier with long dark hair....black clothes...and a silver arm. Some dark themes. (The symbol in question is a tulpa, when Bucky concentrates on his past life as the WS, while staring the painting, he inevitably brings the "character" to life).

4) Bones/FaTWS - Reader is sick of how Dr. Raynor speaks to Bucky, and asks if it's possible for him to get a different therapist, one with better experience in handling a veteran. They enlist the help of former colleague Special Agent Seeley Booth to help convince his former therapist, Dr. Gordon Wyatt, to accept the position. Booth also provides some wisdom on how to live with  red ledger as a former sniper, as well as having connections with the assassination of a president. Definitely some angst.

5) Law and Order SVU/FaTWS - Similar to the Bones crossover, except reader's former colleague is Dr. George Huang, a forensic psychiatrist and criminal profiler for SVU. Can Olivia Benson and Dr. Huang help heal Bucky in the way that he truly needs as a special victim himself?

6) The Mortal Instruments/Post-Endgame/Pre-FaTWS - Steve isn't actually dead, but fakes it in order to go into hiding so that he can finally "retire" in peace, but still stay in his regular timeline. The only people that know of this are reader and the people of Idris, Shadowhunters, who have agreed to give the great Captain solace in exchange for his services in helping to protect the sacred country. Because of Idris' supernatural protection, both divine and otherwise, Idris is undetectable by even Wakanda-standards, making it the perfect place to hide. Until Bucky finds out the truth, and demands reader take him there. Can he forgive Steve? And why was the Captain so desperate to run away from his best friend? AAAAAANGST.

7) Doctor Sleep/FaTWS - Reader is gifted with the "shining", and tries so hard to avoid accidentally side-stepping into other people's heads, but sometimes their efforts are futile. Reader accidentally side-steps into Bucky's head, and he hates the idea of yet another person messing around in there. He avoids reader as much as possible, but they're neighbors so they still encounter each other in the apartment building. One night Bucky has a nightmare, and reader can't help but sense it with the "shining", immediately racing to help. Angst for sure.

8) The Matrix/(whichever movie you choose honestly, they could all work)....-  Instead of Agent Smith spreading like a virus, it was Hydra that attempted to overthrow the virtual world of the Matrix, and overpower the Machines. Steve is the "One" the free-minded have been searching for, he is freed from the alternate reality, but Bucky remains behind. Bucky's "infected" by Hydra, his programming is rewritten to become the Winter Soldier. Can Steve help free Bucky's mind from Hydra's control? Or will Hydra take over and destroy Zion for good?

9) Gilmore Girls/Chubby!Baker!Bucky x Reader - Reader moved to New York from Stars Hollow a few years back, but will occasionally go back for a visit to see their favorite Inn owners Lorelei and Sookie. Reader gushes about Sookies cooking and baked goods.......and a slightly jealous Bucky is a little miffed that his Cupcake/Peaches (you pick) enjoys someone else's baking besides his own.

10) Treasure Planet with Pirate!Bucky - Captain Steve Rogers is a respectable sailor who becomes an unfortunate pawn in a scheme to steal a spherical map that leads to the legendary Treasure Planet......and Pirate!Bucky will do anything to get his hands on some of the riches.

11) Conventions with FaTWS!Bucky - Reader convinces her grumpy boyfriend to let loose and enjoy a comic book/anime convention. Bucky thinks it's silly at first, but he can't help his fanboy side when he sees some people cosplaying as his favorite characters. There's also the dealer's rooms where he discovers the feeling of buying things he likes just because, realizing how much he missed choosing things for himself. Bonus points if Reader cosplays as one of his favorite characters.

That's all I have for now.....I may fuck around and add more later lol

Oneshot: Substance - Bucky x Reader

Summary: After stumbling upon certain things on your boyfriends phone, your self-esteem drops below zero.

Warnings: Self-hatred, Angst, Fatshaming, kinda Self-Harm (like withdrawal, not eating enough and overly excessive sport), one or two Swear Words.

Words: ~2900

A/N: Didn’t want to keep you guys waiting any longer, so this has been written in an hour without proof-reading. please have mercy with my soul

“Heya, sweetie-pie. Mind giving me the usual?”

There he was, 12 o’clock as usual. Bucky was leaning over the counter and staring at you with his piercing blue eyes.

He gave you a wink as he shoved the money over the counter, looking around the small but full diner. It was always that crowded at this time of the day.

“Come on, you doofus. You know it’s on me” you chuckled as you pressed the coins back in his hand, relishing at his warmth for a brief second before stepping back.

It has become a ritual to prepare his favourite on almost every single day, even though he claimed to love everything on your menu. His therapist once told him that a certain routine would help him adapt to society again, and he stuck to it pretty closely.

And visiting your restaurant was an important part of his day.

“Do you think we can spend the evening?” Your boyfriend was sipping on his coffee, eyes lighting up when you finally got him his piece of plum pie with whipped cream.

When you watched him eating it in almost one bite, you kind of admired him for being able to eat basically anything without gaining weight. But well, on the other hand, training and fighting were his daily bread, so it was no wonder those calories would be burned like it was nothing.

“Gosh, delicious as always” Bucky mumbled and you couldn’t surpress a quiet laugh at your dork while you were serving another customer. “And I mean you in that dress, not the food. Love your style.”

You usually avoided to fuel his stupid way of flirting, no matter how flattered you felt anyway. So you simply changed the topic. “Dunno. Might get late. Today seems to be very profitable.”

It was just wonderful how understanding Bucky was. Well, he knew he was a piece of work as well. Why should he be mad if you were sucessfull anyway?

So he just shrugged with a wide grin as he handed you over the empty plate, saying “Well, then I’ll tidy up the flat until you’re done. Guess who’s gonna get a back rub when they’re back home?”

“Sounds like a Netflix and Cuddle evening?”

“Everything you want, doll.” He gave you a quick kiss on the cheek, knowing you weren’t all that comfortable with PDA - at least at work. “I won’t bother you any longer.”

“You’re never bothering me.” Smirking, you admired the way his muscles bulged through his sleeveless top. “Distracting is a far better word.”

He won’t comment on your statement, rather winking at you and mumbling something like “You just wait until later...” as he already rushed out of the entrance.

Six hours later you were finally able to end your twelve hour shift and close the restaurant almost on time - well...plus the few customers who came about five minutes before closure, and having to clean up the mess you’d always leave behind when cooking as quick as possible.

“I’m home, darlin’!” you cheered as you threw your bag into a corner and got rid of your shoes.

Seems like he was in the shower, at least he yelled something like ‘having something for you when he’s done’.

Well, if the surprise was something cute or nasty - you’d have no problem with either one.

“Hey, babe!” his voice called you out of the bathroom. “Can you look up when we made the reservation for cinema? I made a screenshot from the booking confirmation.”

He’d always ask for that kind of stuff in the weirdest situations. Probably because he knew he’d forget it otherwise.

“Alright.” His smartphone was placed on the nightstand, as usually. It was a miracle that he learned to use it that quickly, but on the other hand he’d always been very invested with new technology.

The two of you had no secrets. And even if: Taking each others cellphones wouldn’t really tell you something you didn’t already know about each other, so it had never been a no-go to use the others phone.

You sat down on the edge of the bed after throwing your sweat-soaked and stained clothes into the basket, wishing Bucky would hurry up so you could clean up and enjoy some hot water.

Scrolling through his picture folder, you hummed a happy little song, already wondring what you’d do on your day off tomorrow.

James is still pretty awkward in todays society, but hell he knew how to treat a woman. And dates were his speciality.

“I can’t fi-” Your words turned into a loud gasp as you saw the preview image of a seemingly naked woman. Shocked, even though you felt bad for prying instead of trusting your partner, you klicked on it to see the whole picture.

It was exactly what you thought it was. That sort of picture drunk elderly men would send each other in Whatsapp Groups.

A beautiful woman, only wearing a thong and presenting it in a - let’s call it ‘seductive’ pose.

And the worst of all was the headline, floating above the models face:

“The Perfect Woman”

This was not the only pic of some sort - you found a dozen of it, videos as well.

Disgusting was the only thing that came to your mind.

Not the woman, though. You were not one to slut-shame anyway.

But a feeling of disgust came up when you layed down the phone and went to the mirror, watching yourself closely. And for the first time, you were not satisfied with what you were seeing.

Sure, you’ve always been kind of chubby. But up until now you’ve never doubtet your beauty.

Curves were always something beautiful to you, even though you had to admit that some days, you were asking yourself why you had to be the only one of your friends who had that hard cellulite and stretch marks.

Maybe if you’d already have kids or were older, you’d be fine with it, but...

On the other hand, your friends would admire the fact that you had bigger breasts and a ‘peach ass’, as they’d call it.

Your mother used to call it ‘atomar boobs’ and ‘birth-enthusiastic hips’, always making you laugh about how self-ironic she was. But on the inside you knew how much she was struggling as well.

There were so many forms of beauty, and you loved every single one of it - including your own. But now..

“Ugly” you told yourself again and again, while trying to find a suitable pose that didn’t make you look like a small, wobbly piece of fat.

Did the opinion of a man really matter more to you than your own? Now you also felt kind of pathetic.

Actually, you were just hurt. Of him not being honest, and obviously searching for something...you didn’t want to say ‘better’, but rather ‘different’ than you.

As former Winter Soldier, he might not be that popular, but his looks sure did the trick anyway. So why not searching for a thin woman if he loves them so much?

Or does he already know them? What if those were not mere pictures, but woman he actually contacted?

The thought alone made you tear up.

You’ve tried. Your whole life you did and he knew that.

It’s a problem you’ve been struggling for your whole youth, after all.

No matter how much sport or diets you tried out, your body just wouldn’t change. Even after you’ve got diagnosed with hypothyreosis, the medication would only do so much as prevent further weight gain.

Things got a lot easier when you were grown up, and the bullies would decrease.

You learned to love yourself, and realized that many people were into exactly your kind of body-type. After finding your own style and way of living, things became so much easier and you could finally be yourself.

“Heya, there” a familiar voice snickered behind your back, “What’s cookin’, good lookin’?”

The only reaction Bucky would gain was a pained groan, yet you didn’t dare to make a scene just yet. You wanted him to take the hints and be honest with you, that was what you had decided.

“Didn’t find the picture. Go look yourself.”

With that said, you’d walk straight past him and towards the bathroom. It took you quite a while to cry to your hearts extend, sobs being deafened by the pattering sounds of the shower.

You wrapped a towel around yourself, but when you saw your reflection again as you put on some lotion, you decided to wear the bathrobe.

No matter how you moved, you felt like some fat would always wiggle or roll up somehow - and Bucky felt your discomfort as soon as you greeted him with a twisted face.

“C’mon here, babydoll. We can talk.” He patted the spot right next to him on the bed, and goddamn it was just too unfair how he was posing there on the mattress, looking like a fucking adonis compared to you.

The very second you stiffly layed down next to him, you felt his hand slip under your bathrobe and squeeze your thigh, making you gasp.

“Maybe I can cheer you up otherwise before we talk...” he breathed into your ear, adding a bittersweet “I missed you.”

“Bucky, please. I’m tired.” Perfect. You managed to get that sentence out without your voice cracking once. Now you just needd to turn around and wrap yourself in your comforter before he’d see the tears in your eyes.

You didn’t want him - or anyone else - to touch you ever again.

“O-okay...” James stuttered, already reaching out his hand to touch your shoulder. But in the end, he retreated it, realizing you needed some time for yourself. “Imma be at the sofa if you need me.”

“Or tell me what the fuck is wrong all of a sudden...” He kept himself from saying that.

The following days were the hardest ones yet to come - for both of you.

It all started with you declining all offers from friends to go swimming or visiting some food-places, slowly but steadily withdrawing you from the happy, active life you’ve built up out of anger and shame.

You had grown quite distant as time passed, at first finding any kind of excuse for intimacy, and afterwards not even bearing any kind of physical contact. Not to speak of simple and carefree talking...

The air had become strained around the two of you, but Bucky was too afraid to ask you what was wrong.

Instead of letting off some steam through work as always, you took a few weeks off. It wasn’t like you needed the money anyway, looking at how successfull your work was.

Your restaurant, even though being more of a small diner, had been on the top of New Yorks most popular ones for years. And you were damn proud of it.

Bucky would always say you’re the only one who cooks just like home, and meanwhile you knew all of his favourite dishes.

An unconscious smile ghosted your lips when you thought back to the day where Bucky would go all Winter Soldier on a dude that made fun of you for being “a wandering cliché: a fat woman running a kitchen”. Ouch.

You didn’t go on vacation those days - there was different work to do.

Actually, you liked sports. For fun, that is. Like going to swim with your friends, or going for a walk. Sometimes visiting the gym, even. To you, it was more part of a healthy lifestyle instead of a competition for appreciation.

But now, things were different. You tried to built up your confidence again through secretly visiting the Avengers training rooms - yet to no avail.

Steve kindly offered you help with any certain training, but you declined. This was something you wanted to achieve yourself.

As if that would change anything about your feeling of betrayal...

“Fuck!” you exclaimed after almost falling off the treadmill, having to use the emergency turn-off. Even though many people assumed it, you weren’t really unfit. But those past days, you’ve just overloaded yourself through excessive training and eating almost nothing.

You kneeled down, desperately trying to catch your breath. Looking down, you saw your bruised knuckles from punching the bag earlier and thinking of that damn beautiful woman on Buckys cellphone.

If only you would have the courage to talk this through with him...but you were afraid of the outcome. Of the truth.

Knowing you were all alone on the floor, you finally gave in to your emotions, huddling to a fetal curl and starting to sob over your deadlocked situation.

“Y/N?”

Dear god no - it was Bucky. What was he doing here? It was not his usual training time!

On the other hand: What else did he have to do in his free-time, now that the other Avengers are on a mission and his girlfriend is avoiding him at all costs?

Actually, he wanted to let off some steam as well. But seeing you like this swung his mood in an instant, and he aided you immediately.

“What’s wrong? Are you hurt?!” There was genuine compassion in his voice, sorrow even. As if it was his fault.

He was kneeling right next to you, and for the first time in two weeks, you wouldn’t flinch at his touch. “Let me help you...”

“You don’t need to play anymore, James” you whimpered, slapping his hand away. “Just get this over with.”

Now you’ve got him mad. “What the fuck did I do wrong to deserve this, Y/N?!” he screamed and his metal fist would meet the floor, cracking it broken.

“I know damn well I’m far from the perfect boyfriend...” Bucky began to sniffle, still clenching and unclenching his fists. “But I thought you’d love me as I am.”

“You’re one to talk.” Fuck it, now that you seemingly screwed up anyway you could talk freely. “I’ve seen the photos, Bucky. Of the perfect woman. Many of them. Seems like you prefer something not remotely close to me.”

For a while, there was only silence.

Bucky dug his face deep into his palms, as if he wanted to disappear in them - or simply to facepalm in a pretty weird way.

“Doll, is that what all this is about?”

His reaction made you feel kinda strange. “Y-yeah.” Did you overreact?

“You know I don’t possibly know her. Don’t care about her or her body either.” He sat there, cross-legged and with a face as dark as your heart had been those past weeks.

“Then why do you keep a ton of photos of naked models on your phone?!” You jumped onto him, effectively knocking him over and pinning him on the floor. Out of a whim, you wanted to run away, but he trapped you in his hold.

“Gosh, why can’t you talk to me for once?” It almost sounded like he found it funny. “You’re usually one to be upfront about everything.”

A sole tear escaped every eye, but Bucky would catch them with his thumb.

“Sam sent them to me. We have that Whatsapp-Group, and he’s simply that single, horny dude that finds that kind of stuff funny. You know I never delete anything. I have over 5000+ photos on that shit phone.”

You were stunned, looking at him in disbelief. “I’m sorry, doll. I should’ve know you’d stumble across them eventually. But you were always so confident and strong, the thought of it bothering you never crossed my mind.”

“Y-you-” Gosh, what a fucking idiot you were. “You’re not at fault, Buck! I’m so sorry! I feel so stupid right now.”

“And I thought you wanted to leave me...” he murmured, mainly to himself.

“Wha- how could I ever?! You’re the love of my life! Why else do you think your opinion matters this much to me? Look where we are right now!”

“And you know that the beauty-standarts of the 40s are exactly what you look like, right?”

The situation changed so drastically, it left both of you in boisterous laughter.

When you finally catched your breath, holding your thummy at how much you laughed, Bucky would not give you a break - rather cupping your cheeks and pulling your lips onto his.

“Look” he breathed out calmly, his cheek barely brushing yours. “I feel stupid for even saying this, but: My girl doesn’t have to be a model. Beauty is a concept, dear. Everyone pictures something else when they think of it. And I think of you.”

You had already snuggled up onto his chest as he swiftly picked you up, your ear able to sense his heartbeat. Absentmindedly running your hand over his prosthetic one, you realized that you were not the only one who was self-conscious about their appearance.

But just like you never doubted the true beauty of your lover, neither did he.

“Y/N...You’re strong and smart and kind. No one had ever touched my heart the way you did. That’s all that counts.”

fics rec / june 2020

We’ve officially finally passed the halfway mark of 2020! Every month so far has felt like an entire year itself, but reading these wonderful works has been a great way to pass the time! Hope you all enjoy them as much as I did!

(* is smut)

*let me show you by @moteldwelling​ Bucky gives reader a “redo” on her first time, and takes her virginity.

*Sleep and Other Things by @aint-that-a-mcfreakin-bitch​ When sleep evades you for the third night in a row, you try to find comfort in a late night snack. As it turns out, you weren’t the only insomniac in the compound...

Dear Lover by @feliciahardyn​ You dance with Bucky in the obscurity of your room as you recalled the first time you met and how three years later you ended up tangled in each other’s arms. 

Other People Suck by @schmuckyschmarnes​ You’re tired of socialising, all you want to do is go home and eat your pizza.  Bucky fluff ensues.

Acts of Intimacy by @the-unspoken-rule​ Small acts, like longing glances and holding hands, are normal and simple to some people. Not to Bucky Barnes.

*One for the History Books (series) by @cametobuyplums​ Chubby Professor!Bucky x reader: 36 years old, divorced, and soft around the middle. Bucky Barnes is your History professor. You’re just his student. Why ever would you want him?

*Pretty Face on a Pretty Neck by @whistlingwillows​ Non-Avenger!Bucky x reader: They aren’t fucking dating. Not fucking friends, either. No, Bucky just fucks Romanoff’s best friend until she’s fucking stupid, begging for it, and leaves in the morning because that’s how the universe fucking works. And sometimes, he wishes it didn’t work that way. 

*Headcannon: Sebastian calls you a good girl for the first time and finds out you have a praise kink by @sinner-as-saint​

Honourable mention - this absolute panty-melter of a headcannon by @greenorangevioletgrass​

tale as old as time (series) by @spacelabrathor​ Beast!Thor x reader: Thor is a beast, prowling the halls of an empty castle alone, living a life of cold, barren solitude. Villagers visit once yearly to bring him gifts he does not seek, piling valueless trinkets at his gate they feel will keep him appeased. They hate Thor and Thor knows, someday, that they will breach his gates and come for his head. He wonders to himself, often, if he will try to stop them when they do.This year, though, the offering has changed. Thor finds not trinkets at his front gate, but a girl, and then everything begins to change.

*After the End by @occasionalfics​ Post Infinity War!Thor x reader:The thing about rebuilding a civilization with less than half the population is that no one feels as though they can grieve what they’ve lost because everyone is grieving. No one speaks of the dead and no one speaks to the King. Until you are hired by the Valkyrie as his maid...

headcannon: lighthouse keeper!thor x siren!reader by @spacelabrathor​

*headcannon: thor using his powers on you by @thorsthot​

*headcannon: cuddling with thor by @thorsthot​

Pillow Talk by @pedrothirst​ Javier Peña x reader: In the privacy of their respective bedrooms, they fucked.  They got along and they had sex but they didn't mix those things up. As long as they kept the connection they had emotionally apart from the physical one, all of that was fine with her. But now that he stayed longer after sex than usual, she worried that the lines might blur.

*Ring My Bell by @queenbvtch​ Javier Peña x reader: You and your “boyfriend” Javier decide to spend an entire afternoon skating and teasing the living hell out of one another at the local roller rink. Luckily you don’t have to go very far to get the satisfaction you both so desperately need once the teasing proves to be too much for the both of you...

*Insatiable by @damndamer0n​ Din Djarin x reader: The Mandalorian has a run in with some rather odd pollen while hunting for a quarry and you try to fix it.

Lights by @sweetlangdon​ You’re well aware of who and what Michael is. Two days after you’d found him wandering around Los Angeles starving and exhausted—broken, you thought at first, beyond repair—the truth had come tumbling out. The truth should’ve changed your thoughts about him, should’ve made you toss him back out into the streets for fear of your life. But here you are, months later, the two of you coexisting in your tiny apartment because you couldn’t see past that sad, lost look in those bright blue eyes.

*Worship by @justawitchbitch​ The reader is Michael’s wife and worships him so hard after his sojourn that he just becomes a whimpering mess under her touch

*Kindness (series) by @vivodinson​ Part One | Part Two | Part Three Geralt x witch!Reader: Every summer since he was fresh out of the School of the Wolf in Kaer Morhen, a seasonal funk seemed to come over Geralt, and this particular summer is no different. But when he passes through a lush green valley filled with peach trees, memories of his first summer out of Kaer Morhen resurface...

*long on the road by @limerental​ Trucker!Geralt x Hitchhiker!Jaskier: Geralt is a long-haul trucker who has recently broken it off (again) with his ex-wife. Jaskier is a free spirit musician hitchhiking across the country while grappling with a sudden reminder of his mortality. Geralt really, really regrets picking him up at the last rest area. Until, he doesn’t.

Home by @ffangirlingsince2001​ Geralt x reader: Coming home to you was Geralt’s favourite thing in the entire world. 

Peaches by @moonanonwriting​ Jim Mason x reader: The taste of peaches reminds Jim of something else just as sweet.

So This Is Love Masterlist

__________________

You and Bucky surprisingly both had the day off from work. You two decided to lay around and watch some shows. So here you two are, cuddling up on Bucky's bed watching Friends.

You're laying in between Bucky's legs wearing one of those blanket hoodies and using Bucky's squishy belly as your pillow. A bowl of chips rests on your own stomach and every once in a while, you'll take a chip and reach up so Bucky could have some.

"Honestly," Bucky murmurs through his munches, "I think Joey would've been a better fit for Rachel."

You nod, "Agreed. Ross was just too messy, but Joey's loyal and cute and funny and doing his best. Ross is too much of a try hard and-"

"Misogynistic and sexist," Bucky adds.

"Bingo."

After the episode ends, you check Bucky's bedside clock and see it's nearing midnight. You sigh and sit up. You kick off the blanket spread over your legs.

"Where ya goin', Peach?"

"It's getting late, Buck. I gotta wash up and go to sleep."

Bucky immediately shoots forward, his thick arms wrapping around you and holding you in place, "No! You're staying here!"

You roll your eyes, "Buck-"

"It's not safe!"

"I-What?"

"You heard me, Peaches. It's not safe. There's...GHOSTS! WE HAVE GHOSTS IN THE APARTMENT!"

You snort, "No, we don't."

Because you can't see him, Bucky takes the tissue box from his bedside and toss it somewhere out of your line of sight, "Hear that? Ghosts. So it's better if you stay with me just to be safe."

You can't help but giggle at Bucky's antics, "Okay, you dork. I'll stay."

"Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!" Bucky says in your ear as he hugs you harder and sways you from side to side.

Bucky then releases you and you turn to face him, "But I do have to wash up and change my clothes."

You scoffs as if he had an easy solution to your predicament, "You can wash up in my bathroom. As for clothes-"

"Don't even-"

"-just sleep naked!" he says with a smirk and wiggle of his brows.

You slap your hand onto his face and push him down so he falls back onto the bed. Bucky groans, "I love when a woman likes it rough."

You give a disgruntled grunt as you stand from the bed, "Shut up. When I get back, you better not be naked."

"Dammit," Bucky mumbles and you chuckle as you exit his room.

Talk You Out Of It

Pairing: Amelie X Hitman!Bucky 

Summary: Amelie goes after a story or more precisely, someone. 

Word Count: 3.1k 

Warnings: Mainly fluff! 

A/N: Decided to try and see what Amelie’s up to, don’t know if it actually worked or not but seeing as it’s spring break for me, here’s a little surprise Monday post before Thursday’s post! Feedback is always appreciated and welcome! 

“I need someone to go after ex sergeant James Buchanan Barnes. You’ve heard of him?”

I nodded, but my boss, Cary, kept going as if he hadn’t.

Typical.

“He’s ex-military. He defected five years ago and has been working as a hitman ever since. If the cops are right, then he’s to blame for over a dozen high profile kills since. I’ve got a source telling me he’s in Boston, about to hit his next target. I want you to find him and get me a killer story before anyone else even thinks about it. And before you say anything, I know you’re a reporter, not a cop, but this could be huge for the Globe.”

Like hell I would say anything. Finally, a real case. “Do you know who the intended target it?”

He shook his head, “my source wouldn’t say. But I need to make sure you’re okay with this Novak. He’s cunning and dangerous. I don’t want you walking into this expecting peaches and roses.”

I nodded, afraid he would take the case away if I looked even the slightest bit unsure. “It’s no problem sir. This will be my number one priority. I’ll stay focused, I promise.”

I could barely contain my excitement.

With a curt nod, he waved me out of his office, apparently satisfied by my conviction. I was almost out of his office, but I couldn’t stop myself from asking the question I’d been dying to know. Curiosity got the best of me.

I paused in the doorway, glancing over my shoulder, trying to look as nonchalant as possible, “Why me?”

He didn’t bother to look up from the papers he was now engrossed by, “They told me, when I hired you, that your biggest asset as a reporter is that you’re constantly being underestimated. I figured the best way to get to someone like him, is to send someone like you. Am I wrong?” he didn’t wait for an  answer. “Didn’t think so. Now get to it Novak, somehow I doubt he’ll be here for long.”

I left his office, unable to contain my smile.

I stared at the computer screen finally understanding why Cary had sent me, a reporter of all people, after a known criminal. I had agreed to take on the job because, quite frankly, I’d been stuck with fluff pieces ever since moving to Boston, but really, my first thought had been that maybe the police, FBI, bounty hunters or even PIs would have been better suited for the job.

However, digging up more information on the hitman had made it clear why I had to be the one to find him - or more precisely, find his next target. And no, it wasn’t as simple as finding him to save some man’s life. Or woman. He didn’t seem to care.

I stared at the article from the Chicago Tribune. Dangerous hitman yes, but even I couldn’t deny that he was good at what he did - which happened to be taking out criminals before anyone even knew that’s what they were. The hit would lead to an investigation, which would lead to the exposure of the skeletons in their closets. It didn’t make any of his vigilante hits any less of a crime, it only meant that getting a story like this before anyone else would be huge for anyone who got it. All I had to do was find the scumbag my little hitman was after.

The only problem it seemed, was that no one was ever able to figure out who Barnes’ next target would be before the body dropped. It seemed random, but it couldn’t be. I had reached out to other journalists across the country but all anyone could say was that he was a ghost.

So the problem was finding him.

But that’s where I came in.

I was pretty good at digging up dirt, and better at following a lead but for some reason, I had the uncanny ability to be at the right place at the right time. I never could explain it, not that I tried to - because who wants to sound crazy - but those instincts had lead me in the right direction more often than they hadn’t. It was what I was going to rely on to find him. I figured it was my only advantage over the dozen or so journalists who had gone up against Barnes.

There was a photo in the article of the Sargent from his military days. I didn’t doubt that he looked nothing like the picture now. The cropped dark hair and clean shaven face would be long gone, especially that he was aware he was a wanted criminal. I knew I would have to rely on recognizing the rather striking, ocean coloured eyes. Seeing him in his military uniform made it hard to remember that the sergeant was an infamous hitman.

I kept digging. It seemed that most of his hits were in large, public areas, creating mass chaos and the perfect opportunity to escape. So that’s where I would start. Tomorrow. I wasn’t going to be able to find him without a full night’s sleep and I had promised myself that I would unpack at least three more boxes before the end of the day. Boxes that I should have packed away weeks ago.

I wandered though Quincy Market, weaving through families decked out in Celtic’s green, ready for tonight’s big game against the Raptors. I let myself be stopped by tourists asking for directions, and popped into gift shops, looking for a little trinket to send back to (y/n) to say that I was adapting just fine. If it was weird being friends with your ex’s ex, we had gotten past it a while ago.

I kept an eye out for him. Every ball cap in sight caught my eye, though none were hiding incredibly blue eyes. But I was sure he would be wearing one. It was the best way to go through a crowd incognito and he definitely didn’t want to ping on someone’s radar. Still no sight of him.

After an hour I considered leaving but ended up deciding against it. My instincts had gotten me this far and I wasn’t going to start doubting myself during what was probably the most important story of my career.

Before I could decide where to wander to next, I was sent flying to the ground, pain zinging through my wrists. Where the hell the basketball had come from was beyond me, but I pushed myself up, wincing, as it rolled away.

“I’m so sorry miss, are you all right?”

I took in a deep breath and forced a laugh, “I’m fine, it happens to the best of us right? Let’s just hope none of that happens to our team tonight right?”

The chubby man in a stretched thin jersey picked up the ball and handed it to his son, my assailant. He smiled, most likely pleased by the kind smile, cheery attitude, and the fact that I wasn’t chewing out his son. They always were. Nice was usually seen as a weakness. Nice never seemed to make anyone look twice.

He finished with another apology and whisked his aiming impaired son away. I watched them as they left until settling on someone far more important, about fifty yards behind them. The cap, which is what I spotted first, was a dumb choice on his part. The navy only brought out the colour in his eyes, making it so much easier to spot him.

I grinned.

It was time to pay him a little visit.

I wove through the crowd, with purpose this time, keeping an eye on my target so not to lose him. Stalking him like a creep wouldn’t do any good. I could do that later if need be. Right now, he was probably hyper aware of people trying to tail him, and less wary of people actually trying to talk to him. So that was exactly what I was going to do.

I knew I should feel afraid. There was an incredibly accomplished - albeit good-looking - hitman walking among us, but the only thing I could feel was excitement. I couldn’t remember the last time I had felt it. This was what I was good at. This was what I had come to Boston for.

I tapped on his shoulder, “Hi! I’m a reporter from the Globe’s sports section and we’re conducting a survey to see who’s watching the game tonight and where. Mind if ask you a couple questions?”

He turned around, narrowing his brows, as if surprised to have been spotted in the crowd.

“No.” He answered gruffly, walking away.

I hurried after him, “technically that means you don’t mind!”

He kept walking.

“Please. I’m never going to be taken seriously if I can’t even get this silly task done. And I’m so done with the sports section. Please, just answer one little question for me.” I begged.

He sighed but thankfully stopped, “If you want to be taken seriously then lose the perky attitude.”

Rude.

“I’m asking you a question not asking you to act like an-” I cut myself off, trying to get a grip on the ditzy girl act.

“That’s better.” he smirked. “You get one question.”

I couldn’t roll my eyes at him, no matter how much I wanted to. I couldn’t be threatening or suspicious. He couldn’t suspect that I was anything other than what I pretended to be. A cheery woman, somehow stuck doing an article for the sports section. That’s who I had to be. That’s who I would be.

“If you’re watching the game tonight, are you watching at the Garden, at a bar or at home?”

His face was a perfect image or boredom. I wondered if it was something he practiced in the mirror.  “I see why you don’t want to keep asking these questions.”

“I’m glad you agree.” I said dryly, unable to help myself.

He stared, his blue eyes focused solely on me, which meant that he wasn’t looking for someone else. He seemed like he didn’t want to be here, answering questions but he didn’t seem like he was in a rush to leave either. Whoever his target was, he or she wasn’t here. So either my hitman had been fed false information or he was scouting a location rather than looking for a person. It wasn’t much of a clue, but it was something.

“Let me guess,” returning to the perky Amelie act, I hoped to get a solid answer out of him this time. “you seem like the kind of guy who would go to a bar to watch the game.”

He squinted his eyes, so I leaned into the act even further, widening my smile. I couldn’t slip up now. He sighed. If he was suspicious, he quickly dismissed it.

“Are you trying to prove your journalist’s instincts with that question?”

“Are you trying to evade the question?”

“Maybe. What about you?”

“Maybe.”

I held that piercing blue gaze, refusing to be the one to back down first. Arching a brow, silently challenging him, I waited for an answer.

“Yes.” He conceded. “I’ll be watching in a bar tonight.”

I let out a sigh of relief, “Good. Thank you. See, was that so hard?”

He snorted and walked off without another word.

“Have a nice day!” I called after him with fake chipper, muttering asshole under my breath.

He didn’t turn around, not that I had expected him to. I watched him leave until he was out of sight and hopefully I was already out of his mind.

The game didn’t start for another couple hours. I had been hoping he would prove me wrong by saying that he was going to the game tonight but of course he couldn’t make my life easier than it had to be. One arena was a hell of a lot easier to search than over a dozen bars. I couldn’t even be sure he was telling the truth. Odds were, he wasn’t. Yet, as irritating as he was, for some reason, I believed him. Rude hitman didn’t necessarily mean sure liar.

I let out another sigh, the adrenaline wearing off. It had been risky giving myself away so obviously, but I had banked on the fact that not many people, especially someone who looked like I did, would knowingly approach a hitman. Though I still didn’t understand why I hadn’t been intimidated by someone I most likely should have been. Infuriating sure, but he was nothing like the scary man the articles had made him out to be.

There were a couple hours to kill before the game, so I went home. There was no sense in alerting him by following him all afternoon, even it it meant finding him more easily. No journalist had ever gotten close. I wanted to be the first. I would be. None of the others had killer instincts and luck on their side like I did. I sucked in a calming breath. I could do this.

**

I had tried five different bars before finding him in a pub known to be a hang out for members of the Irish mob. My feet were sore, someone had spilt a drink on me at bar number two when the Celtics had scored, and it had taken an extra fifty just to convince the bouncer to let my through. But it was worth it.

Because I had found him.

Finally.

I had gotten so caught up in trying to find him that I had forgotten to plan out what I would do when I actually did, so I did nothing. I found a seat at the bar and ordered a drink, close enough that I could see him, but far enough that he couldn’t. The pub wasn’t as packed as most of the other placed I’d been to, but it was just as noisy. After finishing the first drink, I still wasn’t sure what to do, so I ordered another one, waiting for my instincts to kick in, and glancing at him from time to time. That was, until he wasn’t there anymore.

I cursed myself for being so sloppy and pushed off, only to run into a broad chest in a grey tee and leather jacket. I tilted my head only to realize I was face to face with the exact man I was looking for. His narrowed eyes probably meant it wasn’t a good thing. I smiled.

He leaned over so that I could hear him when he growled, “sit down.”

My eyes widened in nonexistent fear, following his order, while he slid into the free seat on the right and ordered a drink, letting me stew. He was probably hoping to ramp up my supposed fear, which, unfortunately for him, had absolutely no effect on me. Although to give him credit, it probably would have worked on most people. But he had no idea; I wasn’t most people.

“Who are you?”

“Oh! Right! You didn’t get my name earlier. I promise I’m not stalking you or anything, it’s purely personal.” I could tell the sweetness in my voice threw him off guard so I continued, laying it on thick. “It’s not everyday I get to interview someone so…handsome. I just thought that if I ran into you tonight-”

“Who are you?” he interrupted.

Clearly manners weren’t his thing. I forced a giggle even though it was getting harder to keep up the charade. What I really wanted to do was shake him and tell him that manners were for everyone, including good looking hitmen.

I extended my hand. “Amelie Novak.”

He looked as though he thought it might bite him but took my hand anyways.

“I wasn’t expecting such a firm grip.”

“From someone so perky?” I asked with a pointed look.

I couldn’t help it. His attitude made it impossible not to want to answer in this same tone, regardless of the goal here.

He let out something that might have been a laugh, if hitmen did indeed laugh. And judging by the looks of him, it wasn’t thing that he did all that often. At least not in from of other people anyways. But before I could go ahead and psychoanalyze him, he stood up.

“I’m flattered by your…interest, but I have to go. If you’re lucky, some overgrown frat boy will take my place.”

I was too annoyed to be insulted.  “I tried that already.” I muttered, thinking of Bryan as he left, “didn’t work out.”

I ordered another drink, following him out the bar with my eyes. I wasn’t going to get anything else out of him tonight. Or at least, that’s what I had thought before realizing that he was following someone else out of the bar. Someone I very much recognized. And if that man was my hitman’s target, then all I had to do was find that man’s dirty little secrets. And finding skeletons was something I was pretty good at.

**

The article had gone viral. Mine. Amelie Novak’s. Cary had actually smiled when I had turned it in two days ago. It had managed to get enough press that even (y/n) had heard about it. Thinking about it still made me giddy. The man, a corrupt CEO, working with the Irish mob, had been placed in protective custody, despite his white collar crimes. Putting him in jail would make it too easy for any good hitman to finish the job.

I probably should have felt better about having saved a life but it was hard to feel proud when the man was pretty much a grade A scumbag. I didn’t want to think too long about what kind of person that made me.

I fumbled with my keys, trying not to drop any of my grocery bags as I let myself into my apartment. It was late evening and the place was dark, the city lights barely making their way through the window. Without any strength left in my arms to flip the switch - gone from carrying the milk jug, eggs and five pound sac of potatoes - I wandered into the kitchen blindly.

“I’d have to say I’m impressed.”

I shrieked, almost dropping the bags. My heart hammered but I didn’t move to turn on the lights. I didn’t need to. I recognized the voice in the dark. Sargent James Buchanan Barnes was in my kitchen. And he was most definitely trespassing.

Prompt: “Falling Leaves”

FEEDBACK WELCOME!!!

Autumn, the season ushering in change. Why change? Grass loses its shining green pigment, cooler weather settles in, kids and adult kids alike anticipate Halloween.

Oak tree falling leaves swirls in the wind. 3 year old Josslyn Natasha Barnes, Bucky and Marilyn Barnes’ chubby cheek cherub, enjoyed playing among crunchy leaves.

Her daddy always raked a pile for her, after ensuring no sticks or bugs attached. Any given day, you’d hear the sound of giggling. That’s how Marilyn knew her husband had raked and ‘doddlebug’ played.

Also, she’d drag her Bucky, Captain America and Black Widow bears outside to dive in mixed yellow, orange, red and brown crunchy leaves.

“Daaaady, lookie lookie!!! Leeeeeebs!!!!” Unable to contain his enthusiasm, Bucky blew Joss a kiss.

“I love you baby girl.”

“I loaf you too. Bye bye.”

Earlier, Marilyn visited her garden, picking corn, tomatoes, green beans. Various types of herbs, dill, thyme, rosemary, parsley, mint, basil, sage and rosemary lined the kitchen window.

Tony gifted their home as a wedding gift. Bucky asked if the contractors would plant a large vegetable garden and fruit trees. Autumn Rosa apple, lemon, peach and apricot.

As a child, Marilyn lived on a large farm. Cows, pigs, horses and chicken roamed in their respective areas.

Joss had a chance to pick fresh strawberries and a pumpkin for pies and Halloween. Bucky often said Joss would have a farm when she grows up. Who knows? That might be true.

Naptime for Joss meant ‘grown folks’ time for Marilyn and Bucky. “Joss, naptime sweetie. C’mon.”

Head down, Joss pouted. Ever so slow, she took her time going inside.

Bucky scooped her in his arms. “Ya momma said it’s naptime. Gotta be a good girl. Okay?

“M’kay daddy. I’m sowwy.” Leaning over, Joss also apologized to her mommy.

“Bucky, will you rinse doodlebug off please? I know she’s dusty from playing outside.”

“Anything for you, doll.” He leaned in and placed a lingering kiss on Marilyn’s lips. “Husband, are you trying to start a fire?”

“Wife, ya know me too well.” Walking away, Bucky gave her butt a smack.

Kissing her forehead, Bucky told Joss to have sweet dreams. “After dinner, ya wanna ride your tricycle?” “

“Yes daddy!!!”

“Alright. Take a nap.” Turning over, little Joss tucked her bears under the blanket and drifted to sleep.

When Bucky and Marilyn moved into their new house, Natasha ‘offered’ to furnish her goddaughter’s bedroom. Bucky and Marilyn asked her not to go overboard.

“I promise not to go crazy.” Nat had a devious smirk on her face.

Although 2 at the time, Joss loved the pictures on various furniture websites. Pointing to a princess castle beds.  play chrome kitchen set and plastic food.

When the furniture arrived, Marilyn had a fit!!! She reprimanded Nat. This was too much for a 2 year old.

“Oh c’mon Lyn. Please let her keep it?”

“Pwease mommy?” All Joss had to do was bat her long lashes.

“Alright.” Nat forgot to mention her table and chair. “Her table and chairs will be here tomorrow.”

“Naaaaaat!!!! You get back here!!!!” Joss’ little legs sprinted out of the room behind Nat 1, giggling.

True to her word, the desk and chair, with washable crayon, markers and paint arrived. Bucky’s eyes almost popped out of his head.

“Are ya kiddin’? This is too much!!” Playing outside, Marilyn placed her hand on Bucky’s arm.

“Babe, Joss is Nattie’s goddaughter. Please try to understand why she’s lavishing her with presents.”

“Damn doll, I forgot. Why are ya so smart?”

“Can’t help it. I’ll start dinner.”

“I love you Mrs. Barnes.”

“I love you Mr. Barnes.”

Josslyn Natasha Barnes loved leaves. Jumping in a pile, tossing her bears in the air, brought joy to her 3 year old heart. Innocence among leaves. The simple things in life are free.

My prompt: falling leaves

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

Autumn ushered in falling leaves and their color change from green to vibrant reds, yellows, and orange.

Bucky loved this time of year because he said it was a time of rebirth, including himself. He worked hard to be the best husband and father to Samiyah and Joss.

Josslyn Natalia Barnes loved leaves also. Bucky always raked a few into a small pile just for her.

Bucky would stand back and watch as his “cupcake” ran on her small legs, jump into the pile and laugh.

He lived for carefree moments like this; he deserved carefree moments like this!

Joss stood on a padded wrap around bench attached to the wall of the sunroom window, pressed her tiny face to the glass, smiling at her daddy in the yard. Her curly black hair bounced as she waved and laughed.

Taking a water break and wiping his sweaty face,  Bucky lifted his head to see his baby girl smiling; her noticeable deep dimples and little teeth on display. Acknowledging her presence, Bucky blew her a kiss.

In return, Joss kissed her chubby hand and laid it on the window. It was the cutest gesture; her version of blowing a kiss back to her daddy.

She longed to go outside and play in her pile of leaves.

Testing her stealth skills, Joss tip-toe to her mommy’s office. She couldn’t contain her giggling.

Pretending not to see her, Samiyah smiled at Joss’ effort to be quiet.

“I wonder who’s in the hall?”

“Moooommy,  I go outshide and pway in the leebs pwease?.”

“Sweetheart, when daddy’s finished raking, I’m sure he’ll have your small pile, but it’s nap time okay?”

Pouting and dragging her Black Widow bear, Joss trudged into her room and climbed onto her big girl bed.

Bucky quietly entered Samiyah’s offce wrapping his massive arms around her.

“Shit Bucky, you scared me!” She turned around, giving him a chaste kiss.

“Hey where’s Cupcake? Down for her nap?” Bucky opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water.

“Yes. She really wants to play in the leaves.”

“I’ll go see if she’s asleep.”

Walking down the hall, Bucky noticed Joss with her back to the door. She felt her daddy’s presence and flipped over on her back smiling..

“Daaaaddy.  I go sheep now.”

“Yes baby. After you take a nap, we’ll go outside. Cooper, Lila and Nathaniel are coming over later.”.

Sitting up on her bed, Joss could hardly contain her excited.

“Coopew, Yiya and Nade? Yayyyyyyyyy. Okay, I go sheep now. I wuv you daddy.”

“I love you to baby girl.”

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

Samiyah came from their bedroom wearing only a silk bathrobe. Her eye lust blown, beckoning for Bucky.

“Hey Sarge. I think you need a shower.” She dropped the robe, her naked body on display.

Closing the door gently, Bucky almost fell trying to taking his clothes off. “Damn woman, you’re some kinda breathtaking.”

Bucky carried Samiyah bridal style into the bathroom, sitting the monitor on the sink. They wanted to hear if Joss woke up.

The monitor was shut off on their end, just in case the noise level rose.

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

Meanwhile, Steve, Tony and Nat wanted to have a bar-b-que. Samiyah offered their back yard. There were apple, pear and peach trees on the side of the yard. Their screened double decks furnished with  chaise lounge chairs, 3 tables, Joss’ purple table and chairs sat in the corner. A 42 inch flat screen tv hung in the corner, welcomed all who came over to visit. Bucky made sure his wife and daughter were happy!

At 4:00 p.m., the caterers arrived setting up the scrumptious feast. Ribs, chicken, hot dogs, sausage, potato salad, baked beans, and deviled eggs. A vast array of dessert; strawberry and chocolate cheesecake, apple and blueberry pies, and chocolate chip cookies for the kids.

To say it was a huge spread wouldn’t do it justice.

Bucky heard Steve’s voice on the intercom. He opened the wrought iron gate and shook his head at the  sleek black limo coming up the winding driveway.

Although Hydra was all but eradicated, Bucky didn’t take any chances. The security system Tony had installed surpassed the U.S. MInts system.

One by one, everyone got out and greeted Bucky. They don’t see each other as often as they used to, so Tony commandeered the Barnes’ house for a soiree.

Grabbing a few beers, Clint passed one to Sam and Tony. Steve and Bucky sipped on some of Thor’s Asgardian mead. Nat and Wanda enjoyed a glass of red wine.

Wanda looked around for Samiyah and Joss. “Where’s Miyah and my favorite 3 year old?”

“Miyah’s dressing Joss. She should be out soon,”  Bucky replied.

Excited to see her aunts and uncles, Joss ran out of the door into Nat’s outstretched arms.

“Hey sugar plum. how are you?” Wanda kissed her chubby cheek too.

“I pine Te Nat, Te Ando. I wuv you.” Joss kissed Nat’s jaw, leaving wetness.

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

Samiyah sipped on a glass of iced tea. Wanda and Nat thought that was strange; she loved Moscato.

Joining Laura, Nat and Wanda, Samiyah loved catching up in the latest gossip

“Why aren’t you drinking?,” Nat inquired.

Sipping on her tea, Samiyah shrugged, “No reason. Just wanted something different.”

“Mhmm.” Laura folded her arms over her chest.

“Myah, are you pregnant?” Wanda could hardly contain her happiness.

Placing a hand over Wanda’s mouth, Samiyah  mouthed ‘yes’.

Nat almost gave it away when she laughed and clapped.

“Chill out Nat. Bucky doesn’t know yet.”

Zipping her mouth and throwing away the key, Nat agreed to keep quiet.

**********

Cooper, Lila, Nathaniel and Joss had fun throwing the crunchy leaves in the air, trying to catch one as they fell.

“Wookie daddy. We pway in leebes.” Joss did get the play in the leaves with the Barton kids.

Bucky beamed watching his daughter playing and laughing. Sometimes he’d pinch himself to make sure he wasn’t dreaming.

Steve pulled him out of his daze. “Hey pal, I’m proud of ‘ya. Finally got your happily ever after.”

Catching a tear before it fell from his eye, Bucky could only nod; he was overcome with joy.

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

Dinner was served. Bucky, Steve and Thor piled their plates high.

“Damn did y’all leave any food for us?”

“Shut up bird boy, there’s plenty.” Bucky waved his fork in Sam’s face.

The men sat near the pool, chewing, giving Thor a crash course on football.

Bucky excused him from the group. Grabbing Samiyah’s hand, they walked towards the kitchen.

“Sweetheart what’s wrong??” Steve got up to follow and Tony told him to let Samiyah handle it.

“Sorry doll, m’just happy is all. Didn’t mean to scare ‘ya.”

Standing on her toes, Samiyah kissed him deeply.

“Mr. Barnes, this is all real. Joss and I love you with all our heart. And I’m sure our son or daughter will love you just as much.”

Y-y-you’re pregnant??” Awestruck, Bucky’s eyes almost bulged out of his head.

Shaking her head, Samiyah confirmed, “Yes James. I’m 4 weeks. I know we haven’t ta-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Samiyah was hoisted in the air.

“HEY I’M GONNA BE A DAD AGAIN!!”

A rousing chorus of congratulations and applause greeted Bucky and Samiyah.

Bucky got bent down, talking to his future son or daughter.

“Hey in there. This is your daddy. I can’t wait to meet ‘ya. Your big sister’s gonna be so excited. I love ya so much.”

For James Buchanan Barnes, this was definitely a season of change. As he marvelled at Samiyah, Joss, and his unborn son or daughter.

No, he wasn’t dreaming; they were his happily ever after.
