lover series - i forgot that you existed

Pairing: Chris Beck x Reader

Warning: mentions of heartbreak

A/N: i’m not entirely sure what to write for my new multiple chapter fanfic i have quite a few ideas and i’m loving the character ideas you’re sending. until i decide which idea to go with, i decided to do something I’ve always wanted to do which is write a little drabble for various sebastian stan characters based on the songs present within taylor swift’s masterpiece, lover. if you have not heard the album here’s the spotify link. i hope you guys enjoy it xx  

Chris was hopelessly, stupidly in love with his best friend, Y/N. He had met her during their freshers week, sat at at pub table along with her flatmates looking the most bored someone could look at a pub. He still remembered how she looked on that day, with her beautiful hair let down instead of the upwards hairstyle she always used during class and a loose red dress, no makeup, staring at the pint in front of her. Chris could help stuck up a conversation with her and from that moment on they became inseparable. 

They were even on the same course, so he saw her every single day in lectures with her cup of green tea and laptop. It hadn’t taken any longer for Martinez and Watney to realise Chris followed Y/N around like a lost puppy. Watney had even tried to get Chris to ask Y/N out, however his hopes were crashed when Beth and Melissa, Y/N’s flatmates, warned him that Y/N was closed off dating.

What they had told Chris was that Y/N was still recovering from a pretty bad breakup she went through the summer before university started. Ever since Y/N spent her days thinking about how Dave, as Chris, Watney and Martinez had named him due to not knowing his name, did her wrong and how she’d rather be a successful student than ever be heartbroken again.

She had sworn off dating and she was not gonna date again. Trust, Chris knew she was really off dating, whenever they went out for drinks or to the movies, every guy would hit on her and she would rebuff him in such a fashion that Watney had dubbed her to be the heartbreaking one of the group. 

     - You’re staring again, Beck. - Mark elbowed in the side, noticing Chris eyes were on Y/N’s back. They always sat a row above the girls not to interrupt their studies as they always complained whenever they spoke during lectures. - Just ask her out.

    - I can’t ask her out. - Chris turned to his friend, upset that they still brought it up. He always told himself that he’d eventually meet another girl and fall in love with her and forget about Y/N but it had been 3 years and he was still head over heels with Y/N. 

    - Beck, Watney, what is so interesting that you’d rather be speaking in my lecture than listening to it? - their lecture called them out making Y/N, Beth and Melissa turned to face the boys, a smirk on their faces. 

    - Sorry Mr. Parris. - Chris said, mentally wanting to stab Watney. He needed to pass this module and if he continued to piss off the lecturer, he would never do it. After what felt like two hours but were only thirty minutes, everyone was dismissed. 

Y/N, Beth and Melissa were the first ones to exit as usual. They always went to their favourite table on the ground floor of the library were they could eat as well as revise for their modules. Those were always the first ones to go out, so they always rushed there.

They got to their favourite tables and placed their bags on the table, sitting on the worn out black chairs, laptops going on top of the table along with their post its filled with more notes. 

    - So, the spring ball is in a week. Who are you guys taking? - Melissa started their short gossiping. They always did a bit of girl talk before they went straight onto their studies. - I’m thinking about inviting my lab partner.

    - Blonde with the cute bum? - Y/N inquired and Melissa nodded. - Are you guys gonna finally stop flirting and go the next step?

    - Look who’s talking, Miss Single. - Melissa teased. - I know who you are taking, no one. What about you Beth, please tell me you’re taking someone.

    - Maybe I’m gonna ask Chris. I don’t think someone has asked him yet. - the redhead said with a smile on her face. Y/N however did not share the same excitement Melissa showed her. She didn’t know Beth had a thing for Chris, it was never mentioned to her. 

    - Chris Beck? As in my best friend Christopher Beck? - maybe it was another Chris. God, the name Chris was a popular one, every single kid had it as either their first or middle name. 

    - Yeah, Chris. Why has someone asked him out already? 

    - Not that I know of. When did you start liking Chris?

    - He’s handsome and he’s sweet, there’s not a lot of guys that are handsome and sweet besides we wanna go into the same NASA programme after university so it has potential to be something serious. 

    - Just took me by surprise. - Y/N shrugged, head going straight to her book. Melissa furrowed her eyebrows turning to Beth to ask her something which caused her to leave to grab a book.

    - Right, Y/N. Spill it. - Melissa grabbed the book away from her, making sure she listened to her instead of reading volume two of the physiology of organ systems.

    - Spill what? - Y/N tried to push the book back but Melissa was already expecting this and put it on the table behind them. - I need to read two chapters in an hour to make sure my study sche ...

    - “Chris Beck? As in my friend Christopher Beck?” - Melissa mocked her voice, rolling her eyes. - We don’t know any other Chrises, you idiot. 

    - That’s just hurtful. There’s another Chris.

    - Where? - she crossed her arms, leaning against her chair.

    - Chris, the guy that serves us coffee every single day. - to be honest, Y/N did not know the name of that guy because he didn’t use a name tag but he looked like a Chris. He was probably a Chris. 

    - God, Y/N just admit it you like Chris. You’ve liked Chris since you two went on that weird medicine field trip and ever since you haven’t shut up about him. 

    - I never talk about Chris.

    - Oh really? Just yesterday we were watching Breakfast at Tiffanys and just because the male lead had blue eyes you mentioned Chris. God Y/N, you like Chris. 

    - Chris is my best friend, Melissa. Besides, you know I don’t date.

    - Why because you’re still hang up on your ex? The same ex you have not mentioned or complained about ever since you and Chris came back from the medicine field trip. - Chris and Y/N were part of the same course unlike everyone else who were only on some lecturers together which meant they got to go on field trips together. Since their group was so tight knitted, she got some alone time with Chris, something she deeply adored as he was probably the nicest, funniest guy she ever knew. In all honesty, she had been so busy thinking about how nice he was, she had completely forgotten about her ex. Heck, she had even forgotten his name. There was no more love, no more hate, it was just indifference.  - Tell Beth you’re going with Chris.

    - No, I’m not going with Chris because he’s going with Beth.

    - Right, are you dense? 

    - I don’t wanna hurt my friend besides I’m his best friend, he doesn’t see me that way. - Y/N sported a sad smile now, something that made Melissa deeply upset. She knew Chris liked her and now she was sure Y/N liked him back, however it wasn’t her place to break it to her friend that her best friend had been in love with her ever since they met. - I don’t wanna hurt Beth.

    - What’s Chris favourite movie?

    - Taxi Driver, why?

    - Beth? - Melissa turned to face Beth. - What’s Chris’ favourite movie?

    - I don’t know, ask Y/N. - she returned to look for the book she was looking for in the huge book shelf. 

    - See? Whenever someone needs anything about Chris they always ask you. Go on, go and ask him out and then return. 

    - Will you stop annoying me if I do so?

    - I’ll even buy you dinner, go.

Y/N got up from her seat, placing the laptop in her bag and walking away from the table. How was she even going to ask Chris out? He was her best friend, he had never shown any interest and he had seen in situation that would stop anyone from being remotely interested in her. As she was about to walk out the library she saw the very familiar grey sweater from the NASA museum Chris always wore. She rushed in front of him, stopping him in his tracks.

    - Hi Y/N, are you okay? 

    - Are you going to the spring ball? - she was one of those people, always trying to get stuff away before she got scared and decided not to do it.

    - No, I thought we were going to McDonalds and then to a movie.

    - Right, rain check on that. Would you like to go to the spring ball?

    - No, sounds like a waste of time besides I’d have to find someone to invite to go with or be the alone one and get mocked by Watney and Martinez ... and probably Lewis.

    - No, I mean would you like to go to the spring ball with me as in a date. Me and you in a date.

    - Did Martinez put you up to this?

    - No, I just ... I like you and I’d like it if we went together. See how it works. 

    - I would love to, Y/N.

Moonlight Serenade (3/4)

@thatawkwardtinyperson: To Ivy and James, hoping this will brighten their day and give you something to smile about in darker days. Because you guys make me smile, no matter how dark my day is.

Warnings: overly confident and flirty Bucky, some swearing, sexual innuendo maybe, lots of throwing people around, poor grammar and spelling

Words: 2563

A/N: Let me start with this (again): not everything in this fic is historically accurate. I know… I was in way over my head writing the dances as English isn’t my native language. But frankly my dears, it was so much fun to write that I simply don’t give a shit if the spelling and grammar suck. You’ll just have to bear with me.

Choosing the song for this chapter wasn’t difficult: Sing Sing Sing by Benny Goodman! The spotify playlist will be updated as the story continues. Ivy’s song is number three. The first two songs are Annie’s songs (read part 2).

PART 1 / PART 2 / PART 3 / PART 4

Previous:

“Goodbye Bucky and thank you for the dance,” she softly says.

He twirls a lock of her hair around his finger. “The pleasure was all mine, believe me. Thank you, bubble gum girl.”

And they part ways, Bucky on his way to dance with another and Annie walks towards her friend.

“Well?” her friend asks.

Annie looks at Bucky and then at her friend.

“It was FUCKING AWESOME!”

After about an hour and a half of dancing Bucky heads to the bar to get a beer.

“Looking good out there, Barnes,” Nat turns to him on her barstool. “Having a good time?” She smirks.

“Better than expected.” He gives her a big toothy smile.

The ladies that are hoping to get the next dance are already lining up and give Natasha some dirty looks, jealous that she’s the object of Bucky’s attention and they’re not. She, on the other hand, has men lining up.

“Alright, fella’s. Who’s next to show me a good time?” They’re all trying to get to her first and knock Sam’s drink out of his hands making him scowl at them but they’re all to preoccupied fighting for the redhead’s attention.

“How are you holding up, Stevie?” Bucky swings his arm over Steve’s shoulders who’s leaning on the bar, head bowed down. All he gets in response is a groan.

“How do you think it’s going?” He turns his head to look at his friend who’s grinning at him. “We both have ladies fawning over us and it doesn’t matter what I say, they just keep pushing and trying to…” he pauses. “Well, you know,” he looks around to see if no-one is listening, “to get me to sleep with them.” He whispered the last bit of the sentence, looking at the label on his bottle, feeling embarrassed. He tilts his head sideways and furrows his brows. “I see them do it to you as well. I can tell by the way they act they’re asking you the same thing. But all you do is smile and say no and they back off. Why doesn’t that work for me?” His voice gets panicky now. “I mean, they just keep going on and on.”

Bucky takes a swig of his beer and leans closer to Steve. “That’s simple. You see, Stevie, you’re Captain America, poster boy for all that’s good and virtuous. I, on the other hand, am the winter soldier, the bad boy.”

Steve nods feverishly, hanging on to every word his friend is saying, like he’s about to tell him the biggest secret on earth.

“And all these dames wanna do is corrupt the shy good boy. That’s the game they’re playing. It’s exciting so they’ll keep on trying. What they want from me is answered by a simple yes or no because all they wanna do with me,” Bucky leans closer to his ear, “is fuck.”

Steve’s spits out his beer, making Bucky snicker. He takes another swig and leans back against the bar smirking at his friend. “You have no idea what they want me to do to them with that arm of mine.”

Steve’s swallowing hard, face flushed red as Bucky slams down his bottle on the bar and yells, “Alright, who of you pretty ladies is next?” He looks over his shoulder and winks at a baffled Steve.

A bunch of women rush towards Bucky, all yelling “Me! Me! Me!”

Bucky cocks his head, smiling a big smile and Steve swears one of them might just faint. “Whoa! Ladies, please. There’s plenty of me to go around and the night is still young.”

“Yeah, but you’re not!” Sam yells in the background, earning him glares from the women and he hastily makes his way to the dance floor with his date to escape them.

Bucky’s enjoying himself and savoring every minute of this evening. Yet he’s not able to escape the nagging feeling in the back of his head that it will all vanish into thin air as soon as the music stops. But for now, for now it’s good.

The ladies are almost fighting for his attention and he’s pretty sure, even though he was very in demand in the forties, he wasn’t this popular. He realizes he’s been lost in thought too long and needs to decide whom to dance with next. His eyes skim across the ladies in front of him and that’s when she catches his eye.

She’s standing at the back of the crowd, hand on her hip, head tilted to the side, a small smile gracing her face. This dame is not caught up in the bickering over him. She knows her worth and Bucky stares at her. The women turn, following his gaze and they all begrudgingly part ways as Bucky walks straight to her, a smile plastered on his face. He stops in front of her; hands tucked in his trouser pockets and looks down at her. She’s tiny, 5 ft at the most, and really cute and a gorgeous Latina mix. Her curves are in all the right places and he can’t deny it does wonderful things to him.

She’s wearing a simple yet pretty black button up shirt with a small collar and short puffy sleeves. Her hips sway delightfully in a bright red A-line skirt, not full, not pencil but right in the middle, and a hemline just below the knee, when she takes a few steps towards Bucky. Black and red, it’s a combination that never fails, he thinks.

Her natural beauty is enhanced with just some black mascara and a light eye shadow. Rouge brushed lightly on her cheekbones to give a natural rosy look and matte red lipstick on her naturally full plump lips. Taking his bottom lip between his teeth, he looks at the two little beauty spots above her lip and can’t help but think that whoever gets to kiss those lips is one hell of a lucky man. Her face is flawless and fresh looking. She hasn’t overdone her make up like some ladies tonight. Less is always better than more to Bucky.

Her black hair is parted to the side with one victory roll rolled up and the other to the side. Her curls are piled atop of her head in a lush updo and loose curls resting on her shoulders. She looks like Betty Grable in that peek-a-boo shot, only Betty was a blonde. Wonderful, I remembered something and it’s an absolutely useless fact, Bucky thinks to himself.

“So what’s your name, doll?”

“Ivy.”

“I love your eye for detail, Ivy,” he looks at the small red star pin brooch on the collar of her shirt. He takes a step closer, chests almost touching each other and she can feel his body heath and his breath ever so lightly fanning her face.

Bucky no longer looks like the man that danced the opening dance, Ivy thinks. He’s no longer wearing his three-piece suit; his vest long gone and his tie hanging lose around his neck. The sleeves of his dress shirt are rolled up, top buttons open. His shorter hair is now tousled from all the dancing and his cheeks are slightly flushed.

Following his fingers with her eyes, Bucky holds the pin between his finger and thumb, gently touching the smooth cold surface.

“May I?” he asks softly and she nods, noticing he doesn’t take his eyes of the trinket. He is gentle and careful when he unhooks the pin, his eyes never leaving it. As soon as it’s in his hands he moves to her left, his cool metal fingers sliding under the hem of her puffy sleeve, goosebumps erupting on her skin as a result. She draws a sharp breath when the pin pushes through the fabric of her sleeves. He looks pretty pleased with the result. “Now we match,” he snickers, wiggling his left shoulder.

“So what do you want to dance, sweetheart?”

She shrugs her shoulders. “Anything is fine by me.”

Bucky wets his lips and squints his eyes a little, making her expectant about what he’s thinking or going to suggest.

“I can’t help but notice that you’re wearing swing shoes, miss Ivy.” They both look down at her red shoes with chunky heels and Mary Jane straps. “So, how about that?” He pauses a second, leaning in a bit closer, looking her straight in the eye. “Can you swing? Like really swing?”

Not everybody likes to swing as it’s lots of spinning, flipping, and throwing the ladies around but it is a great dance for a crowded dance floor. Bucky’s hoping she’s up for it. Looking up at him the sultry smile that’s already on her face grows into beautiful wide smile and it tells him all he needs to know.

“Can you?”

“I’m a ducky shincracker if I say so myself.” He rocks back and forth on the balls of his feet, jutting out his chin with confidence. As the band starts a new song, they both giggle. “It’s like they know what we were thinking, Ivy. Do you like Benny Goodman?”

“Hell yeah,” and she grabs Bucky tie and pulls him to an open spot on the dance floor. Bucky is looking around the ballroom.

“What are you looking for, honey?”

“I’m trying to avoid a fist in my face. Because you can’t tell me a doll like you isn’t rationed.”

“If you’re asking me if I’m going steady, then the answer is yes.” She points at an impressive 6’4” man leaning against the wall. “That’s the man who’s taking me home tonight, that’s my husband James.”

Bucky looks at the man and gives him a courteous nod. Ivy still has his tie in a firm grasp while Bucky has moved his arm around her back suddenly not feeling very comfortable anymore.

“Uh, are you sure he’s okay with this?” He leans in closer, a serious tone in his voice. “He’s not going to blow a fuse, is he?”

“He got me this dance, sweetie, don’t you worry about your pretty little face,” she cuts him short. “He’s just getting the silent treatment right now. Still has to make up for not putting the eggs in the fridge.”

“He- uh, what?”

Benny Goodman’s Sing Sing Sing is in full effect when Bucky and Ivy hit the dance floor. As soon as he takes Ivy’s hand, Steve appears in sight. Bucky mouths an apology to him as he has yet another fantastic dame to dance with and his poor friend has a woman trusted into his arms who drapes herself all over him like the previous one, not caring that this isn’t a slow dance.

“They’re really going after him, aren’t they?”

“You have no idea, doll.”

Bucky and Ivy start like pro’s in a beautiful little V-shape angle, Ivy leaning a little forward into Bucky’s left arm, letting him feel her weight to lead her throughout the dance. It’s pretty easy for Ivy to follow Bucky’s lead. He didn’t lie about being a good dancer, that’s for sure. His enormous strong frame pushes her where she needs to be and she feels safe in his arms. He will not let her go. After so many hours of people dancing, the room is pretty hot and Bucky feels like a freaking furnace in overdrive whenever she comes close, so his cool left hand is a welcoming sensation. Every time he gives a firm and gently push with his left hand, their fingers intertwine momentarily, cooling her warm hand.

It takes a few moments getting used to each other, including a little collision between Ivy’s face and Bucky’s chest.

“A little rusty, soldier?” Ivy grins.

“Nah, ma’am. I can assure you I cleaned and oiled my arm this morning. No rust on me.” He looks down at her smiling; thanking his lucky stars she hit his right side which is still somewhat softer than the metal appendix. He steals a glance at her husband who luckily doesn’t seem upset.

“Ready to go a little faster, Miss Ivy?”

“Ready when you are, Mister Barnes,” giving him a little smile, her rhythm never faltering.

Grabbing Ivy behind her back with his left arm, he swings her forward over his hip while she swings her legs completely over to his right and immediately back again and over his back in one swift move. He twirls her around a few times as soon as she her feet touch the ground again. They spin fast, so fast, away from each other and back into each other’s arms again in perfect sync. Every so often Ivy gets tossed over Bucky’s back.

How she manages to actually speak during all of this is beyond her, but she does anyway.

“Bucky?”

“Yes, ma’am?” The strong drawl in his voice makes her smile widely.

“How firm are those thighs of yours?” Looking up at him through her thick eyelashes, she bites her lip.

He twirls her once, pulling her in close to his chest and leans in. “Say no more. I’ve got you, doll,” he whispers in what Ivy can only describe as a husky bedroom voice. He winks for good measure and pushes her out for a few good spins, making her gain momentum and Ivy takes a few steps forward, launching herself to jump on his outstretched right leg. Immediately Bucky dips her, keeping a firm hold on her back and her left hand while her legs are still securely wrapped around his thigh. He spins her around multiple times in that position making her a little giddy. Though all of it takes place in a matter of seconds, she has time enough to think that there are hundreds of women wanting to be exactly where she is, on Bucky Barnes’ thigh.

As they dance, both with big smiles on their faces, Bucky notices the look on James’ face. He looks at his wife as if she’s a goddess. The way he looks at her, Bucky can tell that he’s a man that worships her day and night.

“Sweetheart? Can your husband dance too?”

Ivy cocks an eyebrow. “Yeah, of course.”

“Do you want to dance together?”

“Like a threesome?” She jokingly smiles, making Bucky blush five shades of red. “Count me in.”

Bucky pulls Ivy close, her back against his chest, and beckons James over. The tall man smiles, shakes his head but comes over anyway. As Bucky and Ivy dance, he takes over when Ivy spins from Bucky’s arms into his, eliciting a loud laugh from her. James swings to the rhythm with his wife until she outstretches her arm and ends up with not one, but two gorgeous men holding her hands. Whenever one dances with her the other circles them waiting for his cue to take over. After a few rounds James bows and moves to the side, giving his wife a few more moments to dance with Bucky.

Bucky has one last move to end the dance. He gives her a solid spin and before she knows what’s happening he’s bend down, grabbing her behind her knees with his chilly left arm, sending shivers down her spine. His right arm is across her stomach and he flips her effortlessly 360 degrees over his arm. When the big band stops playing he pulls her in for a hug.

“This has been one of the best dances of the evening, doll. Thank you,” he whispers in her hair. He takes her hand and walks her to her husband. Pulling him in for a hug and a clap on the back, he thanks James for the lovely dance with his wife, telling them to take good care of each other and wishing them both a goodnight and a happy life together.
